Chapter 42, I smell familiar

"Uncle Xia, let's go over and take a look first, who else is dead? Is it the head of the bank? ”

When Shen Mu felt that this Mei family Zhuangzi's reaction was unreasonable, he deduced that it was impossible for this Zhuangzi to die alone, and now it was just a fulfillment of his speculation, so there was no obvious change in his expression.

But this look fell in the eyes of Xia Xunjian, and he felt that he seemed to see from Shen Mu's body in an instant that he saw different characteristics from those well-born sons and talented people he knew.

Even if this Shen Mu is just an ordinary person at the moment, it is nothing more than to use the name of Liang Baihu to investigate the case with him, but now he finds that since he walked out of the county jail, the next thing seems to be that this kid has become the leader, and he, the nine-grade inspection sealed by the imperial court, has become a foil.

However, he, a classy elder, did not have a strong sense of being offended.

It's really terrifying!

At this moment, he really hoped that this boy from the Shen family would be able to go further in the future.

……

The pavilion was only a hundred or so steps away from the large courtyard over there, and it was not long to arrive.

As soon as I walked to the gate of the yard, I could smell a smell of blood, not to mention the swarms of flies and mosquitoes flying inside.

"My lord, in the West Chamber." The official who told the news led the way.

The door of the west wing was wide open, and when they came to the door, they saw at a glance that there were four corpses lying on the ground inside.

A man and a woman of about 30 years old, and two children.

The older children look like they are only six or seven years old, and the younger ones are only three or four years old.

Both adults were directly divided into two parts with knives, with the heads rolling on one side and the bodies on the other.

If you feel cruel, then when you see two children, the death is even more miserable.

The two children, because of their limited height, did not bend down and do their hands when the killer made a move, but directly slashed them from the top of the children's heads with knives.

This chop cut the bodies of the two children in half vertically.

"Gross!" Even if Dahu is not small in courage on weekdays, he often follows behind Xu Yanzuo and sees many corpses, but seeing such a cruel picture, his psychology is still greatly impacted, and he can't help it anymore, and he runs out of the door and vomits.

Xia Inspector only glanced at it, his face was extremely bad, and he didn't care about the ridicule of his subordinates and Shen Mu, and walked out of the door.

However, Shen Mu was the calmest person among the few people.

The person is dead, and no matter how much sympathy, hatred, and pity can there be, the most important thing now is to look at other items left behind from the scene.

So, with a calm expression, he looked away from the place where the body was lying and began to observe the furnishings in the room.

The furnishings in this room don't seem to be obtrusive.

The general layout of the room is the furnishings of the slave's house in the normal elite of this era.

It's not much luxury, and there don't seem to be many expensive things.

Of course, as a modern person, Shen Mu's own knowledge in this area is also limited, and he really can't see if there is anything strange about this decoration.

So, he just beckoned the officials around him and asked them to search the room thoroughly again to see if there were any new discoveries.

After observing the furnishings and layout of the room, he turned his gaze back to the four corpses.

Although he didn't know much about this Mei family Zhuangzi before this, his intuition told him that the four corpses in front of him were most likely the head of the Mei family Zhuangzi Zhuangzi.

Sure enough, Fang Zhutou stood behind him and said: "This dead man is the head of the Mei family, he has been to the Yamen, and this head catcher has had a few encounters with him. ”

"Well, let's restrain the corpse!"

"Okay."

After Shen Mu finished speaking, he didn't stay in this room for long, and walked out of the door.

Leaving Fang Catcher to touch his head and say to himself, I am the catcher of the county government, why do I have to listen to the orders of a hairy boy?

But he just responded.

It seems that this kid from the Shen family is really a little evil.

Shen Mu saw Xia Patrol more than ten steps away from the door.

At this distance, the stench of the corpses was finally less intense.

Seeing Shen Mu coming over, he sighed and said: "The four people who died in that room should be the Mei Zhuangtou family, now, this Mei Gongzi is dead, and the Mei family's Zhuangtou family is also dead, the clue is broken, and it is even more difficult to clear the suspicion of your father's murder." ”

"Uncle Xia doesn't have to bother, the world often thinks that killing a person erases all traces of that person in the world, but in fact, murder is the biggest trace left by the murderer.

The corpse sometimes speaks, and it tells us things we don't know yet, but it takes a little more effort. Shen Mu looked at the corpses of the two young children of the Meizhuang family, and said with a firm expression.

If what he encountered was just an ordinary murder case, then he didn't care how these people died, and whether they died unjustly or not, but these two young children, whose deaths were a little miserable, still moved his already indifferent heart, not to mention, this series of dead people's affairs also involved Shen's father.

It is about his vital interests, which stimulates the side of his body that he originally tried to suppress.

Everything he experienced in his previous life made him choose to end his life in the end, which shows that in a sense, his attitude towards life when he traveled was affected by his previous life experience, which was somewhat negative.

If he hadn't been bound to the half-finished system of punishing corrupt officials, if the Shen family was just a simple well-off family, he might have slept plainly and casually every day until he woke up naturally, ate until he was naturally full, and occasionally wandered the streets, looking at the secular life, just like a bystander, facing everything in the Ming Dynasty with a detached mentality.

Anyway, it is only the middle of the Ming Dynasty, the peasant uprising has not yet begun to surge, a certain ethnic group outside the customs has not yet developed and grown, and the ethnic groups in the north, although they often disturb the border, do not form a large-scale military disaster.

Located in the south of the Yangtze River, he may have the leisure to farm and do some small business, and in a few years, he will marry a daughter-in-law who is passable in appearance and temperament, and live so plainly and peacefully.

However, from the very beginning, the way he crossed was not right, and when he woke up, there was no beautiful and rich mother in his arms, and there was no beautiful little girl by his side, shouting at him. There is no child daughter-in-law who is a few years older than him waiting for him to be saved.

Only the sword light and sword shadow on the soil pit made him unable to be realistic and stable from the beginning, and the years were quiet.

So, since you can't escape life, let's fight! Let's fight! Let's fight!

Let him be a butterfly that rolls up a hurricane.

At this moment, the big tiger suddenly mysteriously leaned into his ear and said, "Boss, I smelled a smell in the east wing just now?" ”

"Huh?"

"The smell in that room is very similar to what I smelled from Miss Li on the street that day."
