Chapter 13: Why Alone on the Mountain?
Ling Lan looked at the footprints on the ground and was stunned, faintly having some thoughts.
Mo Ziyu, who didn't get a response, was not in a hurry, and said calmly: "Why don't you find a few more people to try?" ”
As soon as his words fell, Ling Lan suddenly looked over, looking for a few more people, a few more people...
"I see!"
She only felt that she had become stupid and reacted so slowly, in fact, she had long realized that there was a problem with the row of shoe prints on the ground, which was not logical, but she couldn't think of the reason for it for a while.
Seeing Mo Ziyu's surprised eyes, she said in a low voice: "If I guessed correctly, the deceased didn't come by himself. ”
Hearing her say this, not only Mo Ziyu, but everyone else had a blank look on their faces.
Ye Feng was the first to speak: "You mean, General Chen didn't come here by himself?" ”
"That's right! It was the murderer who carried the deceased to the vicinity of Lingquan, so only the footprints of the deceased were left without the footprints of the murderer, and the distance between the footprints could be explained. ”
Ling Lan's words were too informative, so that several people were blindsided at the same time.
It was Mo Ziyu who reacted first, his eyes swept over the rows of footprints on the dead and the wetland, waking up like a dream.
"If that's the case, then you can't leave yet, because this is not the first scene"
After discussion, it was initially restored that General Chen should have been killed nearby, and the murderer wore General Chen's shoes and carried him to the vicinity of Lingquan in order to confuse everyone.
Next, Mo Ziyu asked people to divide into several groups to search nearby, and several of them carried out verification, and different people carried Ah Qiang, who was about the same height and weight as General Chen, walking on the wetland, the footprints were indeed deeper than before, and the soles of the feet were heavier, and there were different expansion marks near the toes, but the steps were still different, and their steps were too big.
After several experiments, the depth is still not consistent, and it is not as deep as the set of footprints left at the scene.
"It seems that the murderer's strength is not great, and it is very difficult to carry General Chen forward." Ling Lan analysis.
Mo Ziyu also had this idea, everyone present was a guard with kung fu, but Ye Feng didn't know martial arts, and he had a little difficulty in walking, so only the footprints he left were deeper. It can be seen that the murderer has less strength.
Almost unanimously, the two looked at each other, and it was obvious that they were thinking of one thing again.
Mo Ziyu subconsciously shook her head, but Ling Lan spoke first.
"Let me try."
Although Ye Feng suggested that it was inappropriate, Ling Lan still insisted on her opinion.
"Help me take off General Chen's shoes." She said to Ye Feng.
After a while, Ling Lan first checked General Chen's black cloth boots inside and out, and made sure that there were no traces left by the murderer before putting them on.
Ah Qiang, who is similar in height and weight to General Chen, was very hesitant, he looked at Mo Ziyu several times for help, and it was okay to be carried by others, after all, it was needed by the case, but what happened to being carried by a girl who had not left the cabinet?
The impact is not good, what if it crushes the girl?
For a while, he was really anxious, but Mo Ziyu just ignored his pleas.
After getting ready, Ling Lan moved her muscles and bones a little, approached Ah Qiang and said softly: "It's okay, I'm just trying to walk a few steps, if I can't bear it, I'll tell you." ”
Seeing Mo Ziyu's acquiescence, Ah Qiang could only agree stubbornly.
Because Ah Qiang was tall, he didn't need Ling Lan to bend over at all, he just whispered if he was ready, and after getting the answer, he lay on Ling Lan's back with his eyes closed, looking like he was already dead...
Although Ling Lan's body is soft, it still has explosive power, and she makes good use of skill, although it is very difficult, she still stands up with Ah Qiang on her back and walks forward slowly.
After taking five steps, Ling Lan stopped: "It's okay." ”
Ah Qiang, who pretended to be dead, "resurrected" for the first time, and hurriedly jumped down and took a few steps back, he was so uncomfortable, he felt that his face was feverish...
"Miss Ling is so powerful, she is more powerful than looking." Ye Feng couldn't stop praising it.
Ling Lan smiled bitterly: "It's the limit." ”
Ay! If it was before, it would not be a problem to run with a man on her back, her physique really needs to be exercised.
Mo Ziyu's eyes, which took in everything but didn't speak, were deep, and many emotions were hidden in them.
"Oh my God! Miss Ling, you are so powerful, the footprints left this time are basically the same as the previous row. Ye Feng, who squatted down to check, exclaimed.
After comparing several sets of footprints, the depth, the degree of force on the soles of the feet and the distance between the steps were all similar, Ling Lan raised her eyes to look at the sun in the west, it seemed that the murderer might be a woman.
It didn't take long for Tianyi to find the scene of the crime, which was next to a large rock at the top of the mountain in front of him, no blood was found on the surface of the rock and the nearby grass, but the ground was very messy, with broken branches and disorderly footprints, which showed that the murderer and the deceased had a physical altercation at that time.
After Ling Lan and the others arrived, Ye Feng immediately inspected the ground, after the study just now, he was full of confidence at this time, and there were many more thoughts and thoughts in his mind that he had not had before, and his hand movements became more and more numb.
He was lucky, he found a complete set of footprints on the edge of the side of the rock, after observation it was determined that it did not belong to the deceased General Chen, nor was it their person, judging from the size and the auspicious cloud lines on the shoe prints, the owner of the shoes should be a woman!
Ling Lan tilted her head and pondered, muttering to her tentatively, "If you want to bring this set of shoe prints back, what good way do you have?" ”
Mo Ziyu looked at Tianyi.
"I'll deal with it, but it will take some time." Tianyi immediately spoke.
Ling Lan was very satisfied, guessing that they should have a unique way.
"Hmmm! Then wait for your good news. ”
Mo Ziyu was pacing nearby, as if he was reorganizing the incident at that time, and he didn't know what to think of, he looked at Tianyi again: "You go to Chen's Mansion in person, first explain the situation and show that I will rush over immediately." ”
"Yes!" Tianyi responded, whispering to a guard beside him to watch the set of footprints and leave quickly.
Ling Lan guessed that the other party wanted to ask clearly, why did General Chen come to the top of Xishan Mountain alone?
"Miss Ling, although General Chen is old, his skills are still there, how could he be killed by a woman?" Ye Feng still questioned.
Ling Lan raised his hand and pointed to the side of the big rock, that is, the location where the suspicious footprints were found: "I guess that the murderer was squatting in that position at that time, and he should have used some branches and leaves as a cover, the deceased rushed over in a hurry, or because of the lack of physical strength caused by climbing the mountain, he didn't care about anything else, and he didn't find that there were other people nearby." The murderer must have taken the opportunity to do it unexpectedly, the deceased was defenseless, judging from the messy footprints on the ground, they had a physical altercation, and the murderer somehow used some method to gain the upper hand, and finally suffocated the deceased. ”
