Chapter 241: Searching for the Missing Person (2)
Under normal circumstances, when people walk in the woods, they will naturally avoid the trees to walk, which is a subconscious behavior. If it weren't for the mudra, the footprint might have been overlooked.
Originally, when they went to rescue people last night, they stepped on many scattered footprints, and it was almost impossible to distinguish the footprints of the missing descendant from these footprints!
But the missing subordinate was very clever, he left a black handprint on the trunk of the tree when he escaped, which should have been smeared on his hands with charcoal, and then imprinted on the trunk, and the person who went to save people last night did not have carbon ash on his hands, so it is obvious that this handprint was either deliberately left by the enemy, or it was left by the subordinate of the Bai family.
Several people looked around the handprint for a long time, but they couldn't tell if it was the handprint left by the missing person, and finally their eyes turned to the judge.
"I think it's the handprints left by the missing man." That's when the Shadow spoke.
The judge raised an eyebrow, "You go on." ”
"You see, this mudra is not complete, there are only four finger prints, and some palm prints, which are only the case when one is in a hurry to flee, if you are an enemy, is a complete mudra more likely to attract the attention of others or is this mutilated mudra more noticeable?" Liuying pointed to the mudra and said.
One of the servants asked, "Ryukage-sama, your claim makes sense, but what if the enemy also took this into account and deliberately did so?" ”
Flowing Shadow thought for a moment and said, "The enemy doesn't have to do this. ”
The man was even more curious, "Why?" ”
"Think about it, if they left this handprint to guide us somewhere, wouldn't it be more useful to leave a message in the camp and tell us that they had taken the hostages and let us go to the place they had agreed upon?
If they don't catch someone, but they leave this handprint to lead us through, if we don't continue to look for the missing person, but keep going, then their efforts will be in vain, and I won't do such a thankless task.
Taking a step back, they really want to bet that we will go to someone, and we must leave a clearer trace, if someone didn't carefully find this handprint, wouldn't it be meaningless? ”
Liuying's words were organized and clean, and everyone felt very agreed after listening to them, and they could basically be sure that this was the traces left by the missing person, and this analysis was flawless and reasonable.
However, after these three accidents, there is still a shadow in people's hearts, and everyone once again turns their eyes to the judge, hoping that he will give some advice.
"You're talking!" Seeing that the judge did not speak for a long time, the army commander became anxious.
"Bring that Shuchen Rain here." The judge commanded.
Everyone was puzzled and didn't know what the judge was thinking, but they did it anyway.
In the end, this Shuchen Yu has just joined the team, and he knows almost nothing, and this person is cautious, if nothing happens on the surface, in fact, he has already planned everything in his heart, such a person is an occasional danger, who knows when he will suddenly cheat, which makes people unguardable.
It didn't take long for the scholar Yu to be brought over, and his face was much better at this time, but he was still slightly pale and looked a little weak.
"You put your hand on the mudra." The judge said, pointing to the mudra.
Shuchen Yu's expression was a little impatient, and he lazily put his hand up, the handprint was larger than his hand, and the finger length was different, obviously not left by him.
At this time, everyone present saw the judge's thoughts, but they didn't break it, after all, it was too miserable to rain this scribe before.
"What do you think about this mudra?" To everyone's surprise, the judge looked at Shuchen Yu and asked.
Shuchen Yu was still lazy, glanced at everyone present, and asked, "Do you remember the height and weight of the missing person?" ”
Zhang Ling recalled for a moment and said, "About 1.9 meters, the figure is on the thin side, about 150 pounds." ”
