This fish pond is about half an acre in size, surrounded by weeds, and a few old trees, whose branches and leaves are densely covered, but it looks quiet.

Not far away, there are mountains and forests.

You Mingxu stood by the pond, observed for a while, put on shoe covers, and followed the mud road by the pond, and began to observe. Jing Ping followed her example, also put on shoe covers, and followed.

The mud is soft, and when you step on it, you will leave clear footprints. However, it is still unknown whether they will be able to find useful traces.

After walking a small half circle, You Mingxu squatted down, the road was very narrow, and Jingping squatted behind her. I saw a series of footprints, coming down the slope next to it, to the dirt road by the fish pond. The footprints were roughly about 42 yards by eye, sneakers, the footprints were neither deep nor shallow, and the width of the steps was normal, reflecting that the owner of the footprints should be a man of moderate weight.

Seeing that the footprints were rushing straight down the slope, You Mingxu was stunned, moved forward, and pushed away the grass at the water's edge, the footprints here were incomplete, but it could still be seen that the person had rushed to the water's edge.

Ran into the water?

You Mingxu turned on his mobile phone and looked through the photos - just now at Guo Xing's house, all his shoes and shoeboxes, thanks to his meticulous and tidy life style, were all taken and sorted out by You Mingxu and them, including the soles of his shoes.

She flipped through them one by one, and Jing Ping leaned around her to watch. Leng Buding's ears touched her face, You Ming didn't raise his eyebrows, and his face moved to the side. Jing Ping's eyes were always glued to her phone, as if she didn't notice anything.

A simple comparison is over.

"It's not Guo Xing's shoe print." You Mingxu stood up and said.

Jingping also stood up and pointed to the front: "There are still there." ”

You Mingxu looked over, and sure enough, he saw a row of footprints two meters away. For no reason, her heart skipped a beat. Although three days have passed, it is not possible to confirm whether these footprints are related to Guo Xing's disappearance. But these footprints are strange.

The two walked to the second footprint to observe, You Mingxu had just finished reading all of Guo Xing's shoes and soles, and raised his eyebrows: "Guo Xing has a pair of such shoes!" She flipped to the photo on her phone and compared it next to her footprints, and sure enough, the length of the pattern was exactly the same, and even the worn spot on the sole of her shoe was the same. Then you can basically confirm that Guo Xing left it.

You Mingxu immediately stood up and called Ding Xiongwei to ask for support from a footprint identification expert.

After hanging up the phone, I saw Jingping still squatting there on one knee, looking solemn, and I didn't know what I was thinking.

"What's wrong?" You Mingxu asked.

As a result, he showed that lazy smile again: "It's nothing, study and study." ”

You Mingxu bets that this person looks amiable, and in his previous job, he definitely didn't really fit in. If he has 1o things in his heart, he can talk to people about one or two things at most. Everything else is hidden in that exquisite heart.

However, You Mingxu didn't care, and continued to observe a series of footprints belonging to Guo Xing. She immediately noticed something unusual: her steps were larger than normal, deeper, and there were a lot of mud splashes around her—thanks to the cold weather and the inaccessible tracks, these footprints were really well preserved—that is, Guo Xing had come running.

At first she was still squatting on the ground, looking at them one by one, but then she simply stood up and followed the trail in the opposite direction, along the fishpond. As she was walking, her wrists were suddenly grabbed, and the man's tiger mouth and fingertips had thin calluses that had been holding the gun for a long time, and they rubbed her skin particularly clearly.

She turned her head to look at Jing Ping.

He raised an eyebrow, motioning for a piece of dirt under her feet that was about to loosen, and lowered his hand.

"Thank you."

He replied slowly, "No thanks." ”

For some reason, You Mingxu smiled. Jing Ping also had a little smile in his eyes, but he was always like that, unfazed.

Guo Xing's footprints stretched all the way to the bottom of a big tree. You Mingxu's eyes lit up.

Here, they show up more.

The two footprints belonging to Guo Xing were deep and moved by rubbing in place. Behind it are four deep holes, and next to them is a football-sized circular mark, which is also relatively deep.

You Mingxu thought about it a little, and a complete picture appeared in his mind:

Guo Xing sat under a tree, using a small folding stool for fishing. The bucket was filled with water and the fish he caught. I sat for a long time.

Why did he suddenly get up and run quickly over there?

The footsteps of another man washed straight down the hillside and into the water.

What kind of weird scene is this?

"Detective, what are you thinking?" Jing Ping's voice came in his ears.

"Thinking about ......it," You Mingxu replied slowly, "That Guo Xing seems to be quite unexpected." ”

Clean room, meticulously organized. She loves fishing and has a single-minded diet. He raised the fish he caught and sold them to the proprietress of the fish farm. The proprietress of the fish village and the owner of this place both think that he is an amiable and good person.

is not the same as the drug dealer and the heinous villain in You Mingxu's impression. A living person, it seems, is right in front of you.

But there is no disfigurement. Whether a person loves life and is kind or not has nothing to do with the fact that he did not kill, set fire and sell drugs behind his back.

When I looked up, I saw a pair of deep eyes, which seemed to be a little warm, but it seemed to be just a joke. You Mingxu is actually quite annoyed that a man like him sees himself like this. But behind such a pair of eyes, there is an old criminal policeman who is no more upright and resolute. After the two phases mislooked, they both looked away.

You Mingxu continued to look along the fish pond to see if there were any other clues. Jingping still followed without saying a word.

After another half circle, a very messy footprint appeared in front of me. You Mingxu squatted down again, some of the footprints were staggered and blurred, but it was still easy to distinguish that there were four different footprints.

One belongs to Guo Xing, and the other belongs to the person who ran down from the opposite side of the fish pond before.

There are two kinds, both of which are around size 42 or 23, and both are sneakers, one is short and the other is tall, both of them are of moderate weight, not fat or thin.

You Mingxu frowned, carefully observing the trajectory of each footprint.

First, the footprints of Guo Xing and the original person actually came out of the water. Guo Xing's footprints were very deep, and the person's footprints were shallow and messy, and they were very unrealistic, one foot deep and one foot shallow. So for the first half of the incident that happened by the fish pond, she had a rough idea in her mind.

Then, the footprints of the two stopped on the dirt path, and Guo Xing's footprints were facing the fish pond and facing away from the trees. These two footprints are relatively deep and clear, and it can be seen that Guo Xing stopped here. And the man's footprints were gone, and there were some large indentations on the ground, so it can be assumed that the man lay down.

The two later, with light footprints and small steps, trotted over, from the grass to Guo Xing's back.
