004: Bones are cold everywhere

As they spoke, the two of them had already walked over to the bones. Everyone would raise their heads and shout boss when they saw Huo Xiao. Only this Lu Ying didn't raise her head.

Huo Xiao looked at Lu Ying, and immediately changed his face to a warm smile, and asked, "Did you find anything?"

Lu Ying said: "At present, eight corpses have been turned out, judging from the shape of their bones, the deceased are all women, and they should be under the age of eighteen. Lu Ying not only looked cold, but her tone was even colder!

Huo Xiao immediately turned his gaze to Zhen Yingjun and said, "Are the children who have disappeared all these years all women under the age of eighteen?"

Zhen Yingjun said: "Most of the unsolved cases are under the age of eighteen, but there are also many young men. ”

Huo Xiao said: "Such a big pit, maybe there are a lot of surprises! Expand the search range to one mile outside the pit." ”

"Yes!!"

After Zhen Yingjun left, Huo Xiao squatted down beside Lu Ying, in the same posture as Lu Ying. I only heard Huo Xiaodao: "Now, can you judge the cause of their death?"

This time, Lu Ying still didn't look up, and there were only bones in front of her eyes. Only listen to her: "Only the skeleton remains, and it is difficult to determine the cause of death in the preliminary examination, so I need to go back for a detailed examination." ”

Huo Xiao looked at the row of corpses in front of him, sighed, and said, "So many fresh lives are gone. Tonight, I'm going to have to work hard for you again. "As a head catcher, this is his helplessness. This kind of helplessness can never get used to it, because the blood in his body is boiling.

Lu Ying didn't answer Huo Xiao again, all her attention was on those bones.

After a while, there was a shout on the left: "Boss, a !! has been found here"

On the other side: "Boss, one was found here." ”

。。。。。。。

"This is a male corpse, also under the age of eighteen!!"

"This one is also !!"

。。。。。。。

Two hours had passed, and it was already dark, and torches were already lit around. Everyone expanded the search area according to Huo Xiao's request, and found twenty-four more corpses, lined up in four rows!

This scene is not spectacular, but sad.

After Lu Ying finished inspecting the last one, she stood up and looked at Huo Xiao and said, "Thirty-two corpses, eighteen women, sixteen men; from the shape of the bones, it can be judged that all the men are under eighteen years old, and among the eighteen women, sixteen are under eighteen, and the other two should be between twenty and twenty-three years old." ”

After listening, Huo Xiao immediately shouted, "Sixth!!"

At this moment, a young man ran towards Tianming. Six feet eight inches tall, particularly thin, his face is skinny and bonely, not much better than lying on the ground, he feels extremely malnourished, and he doesn't talk about his appearance when he is thin like this. Name, Ji Congliang. From the name, you may be able to infer the following about his glorious past. His original name was Ji Liuye, although he was less than 30 years old, he had been in the Qinglou for more than ten years. There are poems in the rivers and lakes: the young man was originally a jade lang, but he planted incense among the flowers, and he was drunk and dreamed of death for more than ten years, leaving his body in vain without thinking. There is too much affection, and the heart is broken. When he was in this last life, he was pulled back by Huo Xiao, impressed by Huo Xiao's quality, and changed his name to Ji Congliang.

Ji Congliang ran to Tianming's side and said, "Boss, what are your orders!"

Huo Xiao said: "Give the pharmacist ten taels of silver and tell him that he didn't come here to collect medicine, he has never been here, and he doesn't know anything about what happened here today." ”

"Understood!" After saying that, Ji Congliang left.

At this time, Zhen Yingjun walked up to Huo Xiao and said, "Boss, thirty-two lives, you don't plan to hide it from the adults!"

Huo Xiao didn't care, and said, "It's a while to hide it. If he knew, the devil would have closed the case? You don't have to worry about this, just do as I say! Besides, there's something for you to do. Then, Huo Xiao whispered in Zhen Yingjun's ear, and it was impossible for others to know what they said except themselves. Everyone only saw Zhen Yingjun nodding continuously. Then, Zhen Yingjun left early!

Then, Huo Xiao said: "Okay, clean up the scene, it's time to go back." Remember, there are still three waves of people going back, and they will return the same way. If you are targeted, don't hide it, just go your own. ”

"Yes!!"

When I returned to the Yamen, it was almost time. But Huo Xiao and the others did not rest, Huo Xiao went directly to the most magnificent and spacious room in the Shenji Camp: the Shenji Building, which was the place where the case files and files were stored. In the entire Shenji Battalion, only he and the Seven Great Catchers plus Lu Ying are qualified to enter. And Lu Ying went directly into the morgue.

All the catchers are back, but the bald second Zhen is handsome. In addition, usually, the bones should be placed in Yizhuang. But if it is placed in Yizhuang, it will be known all over the city the next day. For the sake of the secrecy of the case, Huo Xiao had a morgue in the Shenji Camp from a very early age.

The archive room is very large, with ten rooms wide and more than ten zhang high. All kinds of cases are classified on wooden frames. Disappearances are one of the most common, so in the most conspicuous place, on the third floor of the first bookshelf on the left hand side of the house, is. This layer is dozens of meters long, all of which are missing case files, not a thousand, but also eight hundred!

All files are placed by year, in addition to categories. Huo Xiao found all the missing case files that had not been received in the past five years, and then sat on the desk next to him and flipped through them carefully.

Before I knew it, an hour passed in the middle of flipping through it. Huo Xiao leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes, as if he was resting. After a long while, he suddenly opened his eyes, got up, extinguished the candle, walked out of the case file, and walked directly towards the morgue.

At this moment, in the morgue, Lu Ying was still there carefully examining the bones. Huo Xiao came in, she still didn't look up, but she knew who was coming, and said directly: "I'm hungry." ”

Huo Xiao was not surprised, and said, "What do you want to eat?" I'll get it now. ”

Lu Ying said: "No need, there is a cloth bag on the table in the outer hall, and there is a lotus leaf bag inside, you go and get it." ”

Without saying a word, Huo Xiao went to get it, and he didn't have the posture of being the boss during the day. After getting the lotus leaf bag, Huo Xiao sniffed before putting his nose, and suddenly, the aroma entered his nose, and his stomach, which didn't feel hungry, began to gurgle.

Huo Xiao returned to the morgue and opened the lotus leaf bag, which was a pile of golden strips, just like the current French fries. Walking to Lu Ying's side, Huo Xiao picked up a "French fries" and handed it to Lu Ying's mouth, Lu Ying tilted her head slightly and took a bite, but her attention was still on the bones in front of her. However, it all seems very natural. The average person must not be able to eat in this environment, obviously, they are used to it.

Although it was only a small bite, Lu Ying ate it very fragrantly, and the key was that the "fries" themselves were very fragrant. So, Huo Xiao asked, "What is this? It is so fragrant?" After speaking, he threw the leftover piece into his mouth and chewed it.

"Earthworms!"
