Chapter 582: Heart-to-Heart Fellowship: The East Needs Trust
"My lord, what the hell is going on?"
The more Di Qingtian listened, the more confused he became, this matter was really getting stranger and stranger.
The county magistrate glanced at him, sighed, and said, "At that time, I was chasing out of the city alone, and there was no official to follow, and the villager suddenly rushed out, saying that he had beaten a person who hurt the letter official, and ran away after speaking. ”
"I went where he said, and I saw the man and the messenger lying there, and only then did I send a signal for them to be arrested."
That's probably what happened, Di Qingtian was slightly choked for a while, and he couldn't blame why the county order didn't catch up.
At that time, I didn't know which end to take care of, where could I think of chasing that villager?
Thinking of this, Di Qingtian became more and more lost.
"I'm bothering you."
The county magistrate nodded, looked at him strangely, and then asked, "That guy in the prison is awake?" Did he quibble about something? ”
After all, Di Qingtian would not let go of any unjust, false and wrongful case, and now that he came to ask, it meant that there was a problem with this case.
Di Qingtian pondered for a moment and replied: "Yes, there are some doubts about his statement that need to be verified, and it may take some time." ”
The other party is not only a big city from Kyoto, but also comes to investigate the steelmaking matter, and he can't rush to do anything he says.
And the other party will not kill the letter official for no reason, there is no motive.
However, now that the identity of the other party cannot be announced for the time being, Di Qingtian still decided to hide the matter from the rest of the people.
After hearing this, the county magistrate looked at Di Qingtian and asked, "That Wensheng, you regard him as a brother, you won't let him die in vain, right?" ”
These words undoubtedly pierced Di Qingtian's heart, and he nodded with a heavy face.
No matter what, I won't let my brother die in vain.
……
Woods on the outskirts of the city.
When Di Qingtian arrived, he saw Feng April and Jun Yanhan surrounding a big tree, whispering something from time to time.
"What's the matter with you calling me in such a hurry?" He asked.
It turned out that Feng April and Jun Yanhan had come to check the scene of the crime, but after a while, he received a signal from here, and it seemed that there was something important.
Feng April nodded, pointed to a brand new piece of soil in front of him and said, "This place is not far from the scene of the crime, and the soil here has been turned out, so something must have been buried." ”
"What do you think it will be like such a big pit?" She looked at Di Qingtian.
Needless to say, it must be a corpse.
Di Qingtian only felt another shock in his heart, and looked at the soil for a long time before saying, "Then dig it up and take a look." ”
The three of them worked together to look over the soil again.
The events below also proved that what they had in mind was a corpse. However, it is not Master Yang who Feng April is worried about, but an old man who looks like a woodcutter.
"He was stoned to death in the face, but why did he get a lot of sword wounds on his body?" Jun Yanhan looked at the corpse, his eyes full of doubts.
The corpse in front of them had been beaten to pieces on the head, and it was obvious that it was fatally wounded. But not only that, but the other party also had sword wounds on his body.
Feng April looked at those wounds for a while, and only felt that this person was pitiful.
"Do you think he was stoned to death first, or was he wounded with a sword first?" She asked suddenly.
She asked the two of them this question at once, and they couldn't answer it for a while.
The three of them then pulled the body out of the pit and were attracted by what was at the bottom of the pit.
It was a long sword, with a white scabbard and some golden patterns on it, which was very elegant.
"This is the Arashi Sword of the East." Jun Yanhan said.
Lan cut the sword was given to Dongfang Li Xin by Jun Qiuxin, and at that time, the other party also came to ask him about the style of the sword, and he selected two of the fifteen works for the other party to choose again.
And what Dongfang Li Xin chose was this pattern.
Di Qingtian looked at it for a while, his brows furrowed slightly.
"Now that everything is clear, no murderer will throw his sword at the victim's side."
As he spoke, he pulled his sword out of its scabbard, and the blade was still stained with blood.
"This woodcutter may have witnessed the scene, and was stoned to death with something, and after his death, the real murderer deliberately made wounds with the sword of the East, and then buried the sword with the corpse."
His analysis was reasonable, and Feng April and Jun Yanhan did not refute anything.
"In that case, where did Master Yang go? And the black-clothed assassin who was dealt with by Dongfang Li Xin, where did they all go? ”
Di Qingtian looked around, except for a pool of blood not far away, there were a few strings of chaotic horseshoe prints, and the rest of the anomalies were gone.
Aside from the woodcutter's body, no anomalies were found at the scene.
This matter was reported back to the government office, and the county magistrate did not say anything more.
Feng April performed an autopsy on the two corpses and found that the letter official had been shot in the heart with a hidden weapon and died. This hidden weapon is nothing else, it is a small thin blade of steel.
The thin blade, the size of an adult's thumb, shot into the side chamber of the heart, and the letter officer struggled for a moment.
After the two corpses were really dissected, Feng April called Di Qingtian, Jun Yanhan and Dongfang Li Xin over.
She put the thin blade in front of Dongfang Li Xin, raised her eyebrows and said, "Do you know this thing?" ”
Dongfang Li Xin picked it up and looked at it, and found a little flowing cloud pattern on the tail of the thin blade.
He nodded, his eyes full of disbelief, "It's the secret weapon of the Liuyun Sect." ”
Feng April nodded, and then said his result: "The fatal wound of this letter official is this hidden weapon, which means that it was the black-clothed assassin who punched something into his heart, and then chased him and slashed him a few times, and then Dongfang You and Master Yang appeared and killed the man in black." ”
"But at this time, another accomplice of the man in black appeared from behind you, he knocked you and Master Yang unconscious, and injured the body of the letter official with your sword, and most of the sword wounds on the letter officer's body were formed after death."
Speaking of this, she paused, and her tone was much lower: "Maybe this woodcutter accidentally saw something, the murderer killed the other party again, and left the same sword wound with the sword of the East." After that, he took away the corpse of the man in black and Master Yang, and blamed everything on Dongfang. ”
It can be said that the matter has been guessed so far, and it can be said that it is reasonable.
The three of them all felt justified and nodded in agreement.
"But this is just my speculation, what the truth is, we will only know after checking." Feng April said, glancing at Dongfang Li Xin, "But I believe you now." ”
Dongfang Li Xin couldn't do anything like that.
"Thank you, Niangniang..."Dongfang Li Xin said gratefully.
At a time like this, he needed that trust so much.
Jun Yanhan hugged Feng April's shoulders and whispered, "Thank you for your hard work." ”
These words made Feng April's heart warm, no matter when, Jun Yanhan's care was always the most moving.
Di Qingtian, who was on the side, looked at the corpse of the letter official, and his eyes were full of pain.
"Then let's go to the head of the Liuyun Sect."
