He looked at his sleeve, and there was a dark black stain of blood on the sleeve, which was stained by the blood stain when he wiped the female corpse before.

After all, Conan is a master with experience in solving cases, he looked at the blood stains, and then looked at the seven orifices of the female corpse, and suddenly understood, he said in surprise: "The princess died of poisoning!" How so? ”

Li Canghai nodded, the seven orifices were bleeding, and the blood was dark, which was a sign of poisoning, and judging from the degree of blackening of the blood, it seemed to be highly poisonous.

"Judging from the stiffness of the corpse, the time of death should have been between eight and twelve hours, that is, between last night and this morning, in the meantime, hadn't Brother Conan seen the princess?" Li Canghai asked.

Conan was slightly surprised, and he said in surprise: "I didn't expect you to be proficient in the way of autopsy?" But then again, the princess has indeed not seen anyone since yesterday. ”

"I'm not proficient, but I only know a little bit about it." Li Canghai said casually, he thought about it for a while, and said, "Brother Conan thinks why did the princess be poisoned?" ”

Conan frowned and muttered, "The princess has been pampered since she was a child, how could she come here alone?" I see that there must be a secret in this poisoning. ”

Li Canghai didn't speak, he touched his nose and said, "Brother Conan, if you want to know what happened here, you have to know how the princess was poisoned, in my opinion, it is better to carry the princess back to the shrine." This is to prevent the princess from being violent in the wilderness, and second, the cause of the princess's death can be examined in detail. ”

Conan had no objection to Li Canghai's proposal, and hurriedly ran to the forest to cut down branches. Make a stretcher.

Li Canghai also helped to get the vines so that they could be used to weave stretchers.

Just a few steps. Li Canghai felt a little heavy on his feet, and subconsciously shook his feet. The wet mud stuck to the soles of his shoes was thrown out of him.

Li Canghai suddenly thought of something, hurriedly threw out the vine he was holding, picked up the torch and looked at it on the ground.

It is located near a swamp, and although it does not have as much mud as in the swamp, the soil here is soft, and it is easy to leave footprints when stepping on it.

Li Canghai started from the corpse and carefully searched for footprints on the ground, but the footprints on the ground were messy, and most of them were stepped on by him and Conan. It can be said that the first scene has already been destroyed.

Li Canghai scolded to himself, he often said to Xiao Wu, Chang Feng and others that when they found the corpse, they should first protect the scene, but they made such a low-level mistake, which is simply unforgivable!

Although the footprints at the scene have been damaged, Li Canghai does not give up, there is no fixed road here, and the place where the body is located can be reached from anywhere. That is, there is a possibility that there are traces of the deceased walking anywhere. After selecting eight directions, he immediately searched the body in the opposite direction.

Sure enough, the hard work paid off. Ten feet away from the corpse, he found a clear footprint.

Li Canghai was ecstatic and hurriedly tore a piece of cloth from his clothes. I walked over to the campfire, got some charcoal firewood, and squatted down next to the footprints. I tipped it carefully.

"Brother Li, what are you doing?" Conan had already cut down the branches. He dragged the branch and saw Li Canghai squatting on the ground, so he asked strangely.

Li Canghai put away the cloth with footprints and said, "It's nothing, I'll see if there's anything I find here." ”

"Brother Li, it's not too early, let's hurry up and help me bring the princess back to the shrine!" Conan didn't care, he said as he tied the stretcher with vines.

Li Canghai nodded, then walked over and helped Conan make a stretcher together.

A quarter of an hour later, the two carried the body onto the stretcher, Li Canghai looked around again, and then he and Conan carried the body back to the shrine.

When they returned to the shrine, it was already the third watch in the middle of the night, and several guards were a little surprised to see the two of them carrying a corpse back, but they saw that Conan's face was extremely ugly, but they didn't dare to ask.

Carrying the body to the side courtyard where Wanyu was, Conan walked towards the shrine with a gloomy face and anger.

Li Canghai told the guards to let them take care of the corpse, and he hurriedly followed.

When he came to the temple, the thin guard was still asleep, and when Conan saw this, his anger was even stronger, and he kicked the thin guard over.

"Oops~." The thin guard finally let out a cry of pain, but then he saw the angry Conan, and yawned lazily.

"Yebi, what about your princess?" Conan grabbed the thin guard by the collar and asked angrily.

"Princess......?" The thin guard was sleepy-eyed, and it seemed that he had not yet woken up from his slumber, and after being stunned for a moment, he yawned and said, "Princess, it's inside!" ”

Conan shoved him and said fiercely, "You'd better pray that the princess is inside, otherwise, you will have ten heads, and it will not be enough to cut off!" ”

The thin guard seemed to be frightened by Conan's angry expression, and he leaned against the wall, his sleepy eyes glazed over, his eyes full of confusion.

Conan walked to the door and knocked it: "Open the door!" Open the door! ”

Lingji's voice came from inside: "My lord, the princess has rested, what's the matter, please come back tomorrow!" ”

"Less nonsense! Open the door! Conan struggled to control his emotions and shouted.

After a while, there was a sound of footsteps in the room, and Lingji seemed to come behind the door, and said through the wooden door: "My lord, the princess has instructed that no one should disturb her when she sleeps, so please go back!" ”

Conan snorted coldly and said, "Okay, you Lingji, you still dare to deceive me now?" You say the princess is resting inside? Well, I'm going to take an offense today and see the princess with my own eyes! ”

As he spoke, Conan slammed his foot on the wooden door, and with a creak, it slammed open.

Lingji seemed to be startled, she looked at Conan and Li Canghai who walked into the room in shock, and said in surprise: "My lord, you ...... How dare you trespass into the princess's house? ”

Conan grabbed Lingji's neck and whispered angrily, "I ask you, where is the princess?" ”

Lingji's face was pale, she seemed to think of something, and when she saw that the matter was revealed, she suddenly cried with a whimper: "Adults spare their lives, adults spare their lives!" The slave didn't mean to deceive the adult, all this was arranged by the princess! Where the princess is now, the slave and maid don't know, my lord! ”

"Okay, I'll let you go and meet the princess!" Conan gritted his teeth, grabbed Lingji and walked to the side yard.

In the side courtyard, several guards lit torches, illuminating the entire courtyard.

Conan grabbed Lingji, came to the corpse, and shouted, "Take a closer look at who this is?" ”

As he spoke, he removed the gauze covering the corpse's face. When Lingji saw the corpse, her face turned pale for a moment, and then she screamed miserably: "Princess! Princess, what's wrong with you? What's wrong with you, princess? ”

The guards were also stunned, they never expected that this corpse turned out to be the princess they wanted to protect, and their faces turned pale, and they fell to their knees at the same time. (To be continued.) )
