Chapter 73: Investigation
An Huahao's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he looked at Mei Xiaotong's eyes with an indescribable feeling, and when Mei Xiaotong looked at him, he quickly retracted it.
After a while, he nodded, "What you said makes sense." This way—"
As he spoke, he explained while leading the way, "I was here yesterday and found traces that had been stepped on, and the footprints were not found because it was dark, and I was afraid that I would walk around and break the clues, so I only made a mark." ”
Under the leadership of An Huahao, I went to the side and saw a mark carved on a tree, which was the mark made by An Huahao.
After walking a few steps down, I found more traces of human activity, the grass on the ground was trampled flat, and there were a few broken branches on the bushes next to it, all of which indicated that someone had stayed here for a short time.
Mei Xiaotong only found out at this moment that An Huahao showed the true skills of a hunter, only to see him squatting on the ground, observing a pile of grass for a while, then looking at the branch with broken branches, and then reaching out to pluck the grass roots, or breaking off one of the branches with his fingers, and licking it in his mouth......
Mei Xiaotong was dazzled by this operation, and inexplicably felt very tall, but unfortunately she couldn't understand the meaning of the action, and she didn't embarrass herself, this is not her profession.
Anyway, the only thing that can be sure is that seeing An Huahao's dignified attitude, it will take a while.
Anyway, being idle is idle, Mei Xiaotong walked around, looking into the bushes, or behind the stones, thinking that if the murderer lost his tools and didn't dare to bring them back to the village, maybe it would be around here.
It would be nice to have a metal detector, no, don't you have a system?
Mei Xiaotong felt that she had been taken into the ditch by An Huahao, what kind of soil method did she use, didn't she have ready-made high-tech?
Calling the system in his mind, "Xiao Tongtong, can you do me a favor?" You can scan C-class edible mushrooms, so you should be fine if there are any metal products nearby, right? Or, can you scan out, who is the person who harmed my big brother? ”
Xiao Tongtong of the system jumped out, "The host triggers a new random task to find the real culprit who hurt Mei Xiaoque, and let him accept the punishment!" Completing the mission rewards 10 points. If the host accepts this random task, the system can assist in scanning for metal objects in the vicinity, and can guess the approximate data of the murderer based on the footprint scan. Does the host accept the task? ”
Isn't this nonsense? 10 points, it's stupid not to take it!
"I'll take it! I'll pick it up! Mei Xiaotong was afraid that the system would regret it, so she hurriedly agreed.
Xiao Tongtong was silent for a while, and then he spoke, "According to the scanning of this system, two hundred meters behind the left of the host, there is the existence of metal products, according to the analysis of system data, this metal product is the culprit who pried the stone, causing the host's eldest brother to be injured." In addition, the system has scanned the footprints, and the data analysis shows that the murderer is about fourteen or fifteen years old, about 165 cm tall, and his body is thin.
Weaker than his peers, the killer may have had six toes on his left foot. The murderer's fingerprints remain on the metalwork, and there are traces of ink on them. ”
Mei Xiaotong was stunned, this is almost a sketch of the murderer's appearance, the age has been locked, the height has also been locked, the strength is weak, and the body is thin, which proves that it should not be a child working in the countryside, especially the last one, there are traces of ink on the metal products.
In the entire Lingshan Village, there are not many people who can use ink at home, and as for the murderer's left foot, there may be six toes, this, she can't see that she is young and forced people to take off their shoes to look at their feet, right?
However, with the help of the system, this range has been narrowed a lot all of a sudden, and Mei Xiaotong is very confident.
After thinking about it, he deliberately picked up a branch and pulled it around in the bushes, while explaining to An Huahao, "Brother Song, I'll take a look around here to see if there is anything else I find." ”
As he spoke, he seemed to look here and there aimlessly, as if he was really looking for some clues, but he avoided the piece in front of An Huahao very measuredly.
Anwaro was so engrossed in observing the wetness of the turf, twigs, and dirt that he only nodded, and didn't look at him a little more.
Mei Xiaotong couldn't wait for this, barely controlled her speed, and moved towards the goal step by step.
After the spring harvest this year, there has been no rain for most of the month.
In addition to the dew in the morning, the soles of the feet will rub with mud, and as soon as the sun comes out, the dew evaporates and the ground dries.
So, it's a bit difficult to find a complete footprint.
What's more, there are weeds everywhere here, stepping on the weeds, it has been a night, and the weeds stretch out, and the chaos is getting more and more chaotic.
Over the years, An Huahao has really practiced looking at the hoof prints of animals to judge what the prey is? In which direction did you go? Approximately how many pounds of true skills come.
However, this is to see that animals have a hand, and it is really more difficult to see human footprints.
Maybe the murderer was flustered, or maybe the murderer didn't expect anyone to find out at all, some traces were not cleared at all, at most they were hastily covered up.
But An Huahao really found an important clue.
finally didn't lose his reputation.
Straightening up, An Huahao looked around, looking for Mei Xiaotong's figure.
He didn't expect Mei Xiaotong to find any clues, but he was able to find an excuse to walk away while he was doing business, which made An Huahao impressed, this Mei Xiaotong is really different from before.
It's just that this kind of knowledge and interest makes An Huahao a little stunned, can a person say that he doesn't like it, can he become completely different from before? Or did he actually not understand Mei Xiaotong at all, and all he saw before was the appearance?
Although An Huahao has never eaten pork, he has also seen pigs run, and he has seen too much, and the big girls in the village have exaggerated their performance in front of him
, all of them are delicate and pretentious, and they talk like thunder on weekdays, and they become like mosquitoes humming in front of themselves.
I have also seen the shrewd and capable young man on weekdays, in front of the girl he likes, he is at a loss and clumsy.
Thinking about it this way, Mei Xiaotong used to be clumsy and ridiculous only in front of herself, and she really liked herself.
Now that it's open, if you don't like it, you don't like it, but you are comfortable and measured to treat people openly?
It's just that this measure, I don't know how it makes him feel like a fish in his throat, and it's quite unspeakably uncomfortable.
An Huahao felt a little indescribable anger because he had such thoughts for himself, and he didn't know if it was aimed at himself or Mei Xiaotong.
This change in his heart made his face even more condensed, and after seeing Mei Xiaotong stumbling around in the bushes, it was even darker.
Before he could speak, he saw Mei Xiaotong and planted behind the bushes, and then there was a "oops-" and disappeared.
In a panic, An Huahao hurriedly ran over in a few steps, and saw Mei Xiaotong slowly getting up, supporting the ground with one hand and rubbing his forehead with the other.
"Are you alright?" An Huahao wanted to take a few steps closer, hesitated, moved his feet a few times, and still didn't step forward.
"It's okay, it's like I tripped over something and fell-" Mei Xiaotong pretended to look at her feet unconsciously, and suddenly realized "Ah, what is this?" ”
Pushing aside the grass, a bright shovel lay there quietly......
An Huahao was stunned, such a coincidence, he could touch the murder's abandoned crime tool with a fall?
Suspicious eyes looked at Mei Xiaotong.
Even if Mei Xiaotong was panicked in her heart, the surface was very stable, she picked up the shovel and carefully inspected it, the shovel handle was very smooth, and it was often used by people at a glance, and it was well maintained.
In the place where the hand is often held, sure enough, there is a small ink stain that is not easy to spot.
Mei Xiaotong became more and more confident, patted her clothes and stood up, and looked at An Huahao, "Brother Song, did you find anything over there?" ”
An Huahao took the shovel, and carefully checked it up and down, while saying casually, "The murderer who killed your eldest brother should not be tall and thin, he may not have much strength, his left foot may not be the same as others, maybe he was born with six fingers-"
Mei Xiaotong was shocked.
I didn't expect An Huahao to be so powerful, he only relied on the naked eye, and he actually came to the same conclusion as the system gave.
I wonder if An Huahao also has a system.
Xiao Tongtong was very disdainful in his mind, "In this backward time and space, it is impossible for two high-tech plane systems to exist, and you think too much about the host!" This only proves that the love task object we choose for the host is very reliable, and we ......"
10,000 words are omitted at the end
Self-aggrandizement.
"Shut up!" Mei Xiaotong directly blocked Xiao Tongtong's boasting, and when she looked at An Huahao again, she finally made a little difference.
Unexpectedly, An Huahao still has this ability, but he underestimates him, but a man in a mountain village, his mother is so cowardly, is his ability really taught by the old hunter in the mountains?
Mei Xiaotong said that he paid a key attention to An Huahao, this person, no matter what happens in the future, at least now, he can't see through him.
But this is not the time to worry about this, she restrained her shock, and tried her best to analyze, "So, it's a young man, thin, frail, born with six fingers!" Such people, if they are from our village, there are dozens of boys about the same age as me, most of them are thin, but they usually have to work in the fields, and they should have a little strength. Excluding these boys who work in the fields, there won't be much left, and it should be—"
An Huahao glanced at her, "People who study in private schools!" ”
After speaking, An Huahao looked at the faint ink stain on the handle of the shovel.
Mei Xiaotong didn't know why, and instantly thought of a person in her mind.
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was possible, so she cleaned up indiscriminately, "Brother Song, I have an object of suspicion, but I am not sure yet." Because I don't know if he was born with six toes, I have to rush to town and ask my mother, she should know, no, I shouldn't ask my mother, I have to go find Xiaoque-"
As she spoke, she walked down the mountain, An Huahao followed her, her eyes flashed, she moved her mouth, she wanted to say something, but she couldn't help it.
Mei Xiaotong was anxious, and the speed of going down the mountain was also faster, and when she arrived in the village, she saw the two of them one after the other, and the clothes on Mei Xiaotong's body seemed to be rolling on the ground.
Some people looked at the eyes of the two of them, and they were a little ambiguous.
Where can Mei Xiaotong take care of this, she didn't pay attention to it at all, hurriedly said goodbye to An Huahao, and went home to find Xiaoque.
muttered a few words in her ear, although Xiaoque didn't quite understand, she also nodded and hurriedly went out.
After a while, he came back and nodded at Mei Xiaotong.
Mei Xiaotong has the bottom in her heart, and she is not panicked.
