The Yu family has lived in Meihua Town on the outskirts of the city for generations.

The town around here is very interesting, out of the city is Merlin Town, out of Merlin Town is Meilin Town. Meihua Town is bordered by Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, since ancient times, it is a thoroughfare of three provinces, and there are many merchants from the south to the north and are very prosperous, and it is called small Shanghai. The mayor of such an important town is naturally a local emperor and is powerful.

The deceased, Yu Xiuzhi, died in a forest in the town of Merlin in front of him.

As the name suggests, there is really a large plum forest, and the place where the plum forest town and the plum blossom town are connected is a plum forest, and it is early autumn, and the plum forest is lush and lush. In winter, the plum blossoms here are in full bloom, and it is a famous landscape, attracting many literati and ink writers to come, chanting poems and painting on the piano, which is very lively. Horizontal and straight and charming road, who knows that it is the Tibetan spring. It doesn't hurt to reduce spring, don't be frivolous. Open all one to seven, no rain and no wind to keep Hughit. This trip is difficult to find after not remembering, and it is time to talk about the long words of the people.

It's a pity that what should have been a good place without wind and rain has a murder case.

According to records from the police station, it was a vegetable farmer who lived near Meilin in the town of Meilin who found Yu Xiuzhi's body in the morning.

Zhao Nan claimed to be a reporter from Hujiang Daily and found the vegetable farmer.

"Ouch, scared to death, I was going to pick up vegetables into the city to sell them in the morning, I happened to walk into the forest that day, and saw a person lying on the ground, I thought who had drunk too much, slept here, and walked closer with a burden, my God, is a big girl."

The vegetable farmer still has lingering palpitations when he talks about what he saw that morning.

Zhao Nan gave him a dollar and asked him to point out where Yu Xiuzhi was lying at the time.

"Ah, this is it."

The old vegetable farmer took Zhao Nan around Merlin and pointed to a place and said.

Zhao Nan took a look, Yu Xiuzhi was lying on the edge of Meilin at that time, this is the only way from Meilin Town to Meihua Town, she passed by here at night, it must be going home? The first thing to do is to determine what the deceased did and who he met before he got here.

"What was the deceased like?" Zhao Nan asked, and when he saw the old farmer's face was embarrassed, he said in a low voice, "Don't worry, I won't scribble about the name of the young lady." ”

The old peasant sighed, pointed to the place and said, "The clothes are still worn, but they are not carelessly neat, hey, I don't know who is so immoral and evil." ”

This is obvious, Yu Xiuzhi must have been insulted by bad people before she died.

Zhaonan Xindao This road is the main road to Meihua Town, that bad guy can't be so bold to kill people here, he looks back and forth, left and right, and finds a corner of the hut exposed in the woods.

"That's the hut where the people of Merlin live, but the most lively thing here is when the plum blossoms bloom in winter, and there are people guarding here at that time, and now there is no one in this shed."

The old vegetable farmer saw Zhaonan pointing to the hut and explained on the side.

A cabin with no one?

Zhao Nan walked to the hut step by step from where Yu Xiuzhi was lying, carefully paying attention to the surrounding situation as he walked, along the way, there were many traces of broken branches, obviously the body should have been dragged all the way, Zhao Nan thought, this detail, the police should have mastered it, but why is it not in the police records? The so-called knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent, before coming, he had already used some special means. I've read the records of the police station, and I've memorized them completely, and now I look at it against it, and I also think that Xiuhe's girl said that the police were bought by the mayor of Meihua Town is still very reasonable.

Traces of broken branches continued around the hut. The hut has mud walls and a grassy roof, which looks particularly rustic in the woods, and I don't know if it can withstand the wind and rain. The door of the hut is old wood, and the lower end is still a little decayed, Zhaonan pushed the door open, squeaked, and the vegetable farmer behind him was not a fool, and naturally saw some clues along the way, and couldn't help sighing, and said Poor girl, I heard that it was someone from Plum Blossom Town behind, and her father and mother must be sad and dead now.

"That girl's parents died early and she lives with her cousin." Zhao Nan said.

"Amitabha." The vegetable farmer heard the words and recited the Buddha.

Zhao Nan carefully observed the hut, saw some straw piled up on the ground, and walked into the smell of mold, the hut was still very damp, and there was a musty smell in the air.

The straw was messy, and there were bits and pieces scattered from the corner to the door.

"When you found the body, did you see straw on the deceased?"

Zhao Nan asked the vegetable farmer.

The vegetable farmer thought for a moment and nodded: "Yes, there is in the hair, and I still wonder what is going on." Where did the straw come from on the woods road, it turned out that there was an accident in this house. ”

The vegetable farmer suddenly realized.

This suspicion was not recorded by the police.

Zhao Nan walked around the hut and found a lot of ants gathered in a corner.

He squatted down, and there was no blood under the black pressed ants, so why did the ants gather here? The traces of ants are slender and long, densely packed, and after looking at them for a long time, people's scalps will be numb.

The vegetable farmer also saw it. Startled, he hurriedly retreated to the door.

The police recorded that Yu Xiuzhi was strangled to death, and Zhao Nan looked around the hut and guessed what happened to the deceased at the time. How did she get here? Coercion? Then the crime happened on that pile of straw, and the murderer strangled Yu Xiuzhi there after satisfying **, dragging her all the way to the outside of the woods and discarding her there.

Wouldn't it be nice to kill people here and throw them there? The vegetable farmer said that the hut would not be occupied until winter, and that the body would not be found so quickly, so why bother dragging the body out? What did the murderer use to strangle Xiuzhi?

Zhao Nan and the vegetable farmer walked out of the hut one after the other.

"Hey, Brother Wang, why did you get there!"

Outside the woods, a middle-aged woman stood there and was a little surprised to see them come out of their hut.

"Hehe, this is someone from the city who came to play, and I walked around with them."

The vegetable farmer laughed.

"It's wild here." Zhao Nan pretended to be curious about everything.

The middle-aged woman who asked them looked to be in her forties, wearing a blue coarse cloth gown, her hair combed back and a mustache, and carrying a bamboo basket with a few vegetables in it.

"That land is unlucky, go less." She muttered.

"How does my sister-in-law know that it is unlucky?" Zhao Nan asked.

The woman was stunned for a moment: "It's damp, wet, black, and stinky, and it's not a good place to look at." ”

When the woman left, the vegetable farmer introduced that the woman was also from the town, and her home lived not far from here, and her husband was in Shanghai.

"What are you doing in Shanghai?"

"Who knows, sometimes I carry sacks at the dock, and I also pull a car, and I always go wherever I can make money, and I am an honest man who is dedicated to making money. Sister-in-law Chen can also do it, and the family will live. ”
