Chen Ying naturally wanted to continue to follow the clues, and when she heard the words, she said: "Go out and take a look, this shoe print is really weird." While talking, he turned around and walked back, Feng's mother followed, and the two of them walked quickly to the front yard of He Mansion.

The gate of the He family had already been closed, but the guards at the door were not local officials, but two Pei family soldiers wearing armor.

The two Pei family soldiers received the order in advance, and when they saw that it was Chen Ying, they opened the door without saying a word, and one of the young men who looked very shrewd also raised their hands to Chen Ying: "Detective girl, let's go." ”

Even though there was a fence to cover her face, Chen Ying's eyes were still shocked by this title.

Detective girl?!

This is really a weird title, it sounds like Pei Shu's handwriting.

After going out, the master and servant walked forward along the outer wall of He House, and before they went far, an extremely slender narrow alley appeared on the right side of Chen Ying, with courtyard walls on both sides of the alley, the right side belonged to the He family, and the other side belonged to the neighbor's house.

"It's too narrow to walk." Mother Feng looked into the alley and muttered in a low voice.

This alley is indeed very slender, no more than a foot wide, it should be purely used to separate the two courtyard walls, and it has no practical function, and adults can't fit it even if they are sideways, unless that person can "shrink the bones".

However, how could a person who has mastered the "Great Method of Bone Shrinking" leave such obvious shoe prints?

After looking at the alley twice, Chen Ying determined that the murderer in this case had no way to take advantage of this place, so he left it alone, and continued to move forward with Feng's mother, finding a fork in the road and turning right and turning right, and it took about ten minutes before and after seeing Lang Tingyu's dwarf bear-like figure.

He should have been impatient to wait, and when he saw Chen Ying and the others coming, he immediately strode forward to meet them, and said in a suppressed voice: "Miss Chen San, the shoe prints seem to be gone, I walked more than 100 steps to each end, and I didn't see the same shoe prints." ”

As he spoke, he led Chen Ying to the place where he had just jumped out of the wall, pointed to a pile of bricks scattered on the side of the wall and said, "The thieves turned in from here, these bricks are stepping things, and the mud marks on them are still there, but they are relatively scattered." ”

Chen Ying looked at the bricks thoughtfully, and then looked around.

They were located outside the wall of the backyard of the He house, which was facing the street, an east-west street, about seven or eight hundred meters long, of which Chen Ying was located in a row of courtyard walls of various households, and on the other side of the road was a row of merchants and houses.

At this moment, the streets are full of people coming and going, quite lively, and there is no bleak scene at all that autumn should have.

"It's all stone roads, so it's not easy to leave footprints." After observing for a while, Chen Ying said the same, with a hint of disappointment in her voice.

In the end, Penglai County is also the seat of Dengzhou Prefecture, its prosperity is much stronger than other counties, which is reflected in the urban construction is still thorough, He Zhai is located in a relatively prosperous area, all aspects of the facilities are very good.

Stepping on the large stone road under her feet, Chen Ying sighed slightly: "On this kind of ground, even if there are footprints, you can't see clearly." Also, the street is a bit too busy. ”

The hard ground and the large flow of people will make all traces difficult to find, not to mention small things like bamboo strips, even larger pieces of paper and the like, which are not easy to find.

However, Chen Ying did not give up the intention of following the footprints, there is still a difference between a small probability event and a zero probability event, and Chen Ying does not want to give up easily.

"Let's look again, maybe we'll find out." She said to Lang Tingyu, while already lifting the hem of her skirt and searching along the street.

Pedestrians on the street are continuous, the sound of the city is endless, although it is not called a flow of people, but it is also quite noisy, the appearance of Chen Ying and others did not attract too much attention, and others only thought that it was a young lady who came out to stroll around.

The three of them walked back and forth along the street, always paying attention to their feet, but Lang Tingyu, who had excellent eyesight, found a few bamboo silk that had been trampled into gray.

Although there was no guarantee that this thing would definitely belong to the murderer, Chen Ying still put it away with a small cloth towel.

After making sure to sweep the entire street floor, Chen Ying returned to the pile of bricks.

Chen Ying tried to piece together a few bricks with mud marks, and found a relatively clear left footprint, on which no bamboo strips were found

Such a footprint can't explain anything.

After frowning and thinking about it, Chen Ying looked up at Lang Tingyu and said, "If you are not busy, will General Lang have time to accompany me on this street again?" ”

Lang Tingyu touched the back of his head when he heard this.

It's been two rounds of walking, why isn't this detective girl enough, but she has to go again? Isn't this a waste of effort?

It's just that although he thinks so in his heart, he doesn't dare to say it.

The master of his family gave a strict order, telling him to obey Miss Chen's arrangement and not make mistakes.

"What's that...... Let's go. Lang Tingyu's answer was no longer as loud as before, and he was a little weak.

Chen Ying curled her lips and smiled, and said, "Although we have gone twice, we only care about staring at the underground, and I have never taken a good look at the shops and houses on this street. I thought that since it came out, it would be better to understand all aspects of the situation. ”

Speaking of this, she changed her tone and said, "Please rest assured, General Lang, this is the last trip, and we will go back when we are done." ”

These words made Lang Tingyu a little weak-hearted, and he was silent for a long time before he said embarrassedly: "What's that...... The subordinates listened to the girl. The girl can go a few times if she wants to, and her subordinates have nothing to say. ”

If he dares to say anything, the heartwarming feet of their master are afraid that they will kick him unconscious.

In order to protect his body from poison, Lang Tingyu felt that it was better for him to be obedient.

Chen Ying didn't know what he was thinking, thanked him, and then walked around the street with his hands in his hands.

Fang Cai kept staring at the ground, she really didn't notice that there were quite a lot of shops on this street, although they did not reach the level of rows and rows, but they were also one by one, staggered from among the households, selling everything, no wonder the street was so lively.

While she was paying attention to the situation on the street, she was thinking in her heart, and she didn't know what happened to Pei Shu, whether she had detected something more valuable, and whether those shoe prints had also been found, and so on.
