Chapter 85: The Body Is Stolen
Mo Ziyu was obedient, and was led by Ling Lan all the way to the depths of the peach blossom forest, and the gust of wind blew, and the pink petals fell on the two of them, stained with the fragrance of peach blossoms.
"It's beautiful! I don't know who planted these peach trees, and when the peaches are ripe, I will come and pick them. ”
Ling Lan said letting go of the man's hand and opening her arms to feel the picturesque beauty.
However, Mo Ziyu ignored the beautiful scenery at this time, and her eyes were full of her...
After a while, Ling Lan was a little tired, and just happened to see a bench and walked over to rest for a while.
Mo Ziyu stood beside him without saying a word, as if immersed in his own world.
After a moment, the man slowly walked to the bench and sat down, his complicated eyes a little apologetic.
"Just now,"
"It's okay, I'm more terrible than you when I'm angry, the kind that will drop things and light the house." Ling Lan interrupted him and couldn't help but laugh at the end.
Mo Ziyu was stunned, and the other party said it didn't matter.
After living for 20 years, every time he lost control of his emotions, he saw fear and panic eyes, and some people would avoid him from afar, whispering behind his back that he had mental problems and that the onset was terrible.
I've seen a lot of cynicism and disgust, but no one has ever told him, it's okay!
These three words echoed in Mo Ziyu's ears, taking root in his heart, making him gush out a strange touching feeling.
Ling Lan naturally couldn't see through his thoughts, and thought that he was still blaming himself and angry, thinking about it and whispering: "You are so good, you will naturally have an imperfect side, as the saying goes, no one is perfect, this is very normal, we have to accept our imperfections and reconcile with ourselves." ”
Seeing her crystal clear eyes full of encouragement, Mo Ziyu's heart softened. Soft, without thinking, he raised his hand to hug her into his arms, this time the movement was very light, for fear of hurting her.
Ling Lan was startled, her hands moved and then resisted the urge to push him away, she knew that the other party needed a hug at this time, and besides, the smell of the man's body mixed with the fragrance of peach blossoms smelled very good, which made her feel inexplicably relieved.

A few days later, in the early morning, Ling Lan woke up when she heard a conversation outside, and it was Fluttershy and Tianyi discussing something.
Fluttershy soon pushes the door in, sees that she is already up, and whispers, "Girl, Tianyi told me about a strange case, and someone went to report to the police that the grave had been dug up, and the body inside was missing. ”
The sleepy-eyed Ling Lan rubbed her eyes and glanced at the door of the room!
Still confused, Fluttershy muttered, "It's strange, it's the first time I've heard of someone stealing corpses, and it's said that they are all ordinary people's corpses, some of them have been dead for years, so what can you do if you steal them?" ”
"Yes! There are no wonders in the world. Ling Lan replied lightly, not interested.
The corpse was normal to her, maybe something had changed. But Fluttershy's last question is the point, it's not just a rotting corpse after years of death, it's already a white bone, so why steal it?
Half an hour later, Ling Lan got the general facts of the case from Mo Ziyu's mouth.
This case dates back to more than two months ago, the first person to report to the official was to go to the grave on the New Year to pay respects to the deceased father, but it turned out that he was shocked after finding a strange view, because the body in the coffin was missing, and the government naturally investigated it, but unfortunately there was no result.
Then there were two more reports to the official are this situation, up to now there have been five, the most recent is the young daughter of a certain official, died of illness not long ago, yesterday the servant went to clean the cemetery when he found a hole, went back and reported to the master, when the mother of the house was already restless immediately let people go to check, only to find that the body in the coffin was gone, but the funeral goods were not lacking...
The white-haired person sent the black-haired person, and the pain of losing his daughter was already a blow to people, but the body was lost again, and no one could accept it.
Listening silently, Ling Lan knew in her heart that if it weren't for this official, the case would not have reached the Criminal Department.
"You've been to the scene?"
Mo Ziyu nodded noncommittally: "I've seen it all, the time span is large, the footprints near the cemetery are chaotic and there are no suspicious clues, especially the first four graves are in the mountains, and the last one, although it is better, is relatively remote and there is no trace to be found." ”
I think it's pretty much the same.
If someone steps on a good point and digs up the bones in the middle of the night and takes them away, they will basically not be discovered, after all, there is no eye and electronic monitoring in this era.
"In other words, there is no clue and no entry point!" She said lightly.
Mo Ziyu nodded a little disappointed, he had been busy for two days, not to mention the progress, and there was no direction, this was the first time he had encountered this situation in many years.
Ling Lan thought about it carefully and offered to go to the scene to have a look, but Mo Ziyu didn't refuse, because he couldn't think of anything else he could do.
It is common for ordinary people to be buried in the mountains after death, even in the 21st century, and family members will find a location with better feng shui, or the deceased will choose a good place before his death.
On the way there, Ling Lan didn't have much thought, until she got out of the carriage and couldn't help but be dumbfounded when she saw the rolling dense forest mountain range.
She broke down in her heart: "How long will it take?" ”
Mo Ziyu estimated: "About a quarter of an hour." ”
Ling Lan subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, gritting her teeth and letting the other party lead the way.
It was morning when I went out, and it was already evening when I arrived at the last cemetery, and the sunset on the horizon was like fire, indicating that tomorrow would be a good day.
At this time, Ling Lan was physically and mentally exhausted, her shoes and skirt were stained with mud, her hair was messy from the branches and leaves, and her face was so embarrassed.
Standing under the beautiful sunset, she wiped the fine sweat on her forehead with a handkerchief, which made Mo Ziyu feel distressed and funny.
Distressed?
The man feels the thoughts and thoughts of the moment again, and little by little they are stored in the memory.
"Miss Ling, this is the tomb of the official's beloved daughter, which is very luxurious compared to the previous ones." Tianyi whispered.
Everywhere he went, he would introduce the identity of the tomb owner.
Ling Lan breathed a sigh of relief and strode closer: "It's indeed luxurious, but stealing corpses changes. The fact that the funeral goods were not moved shows that the other party has a clear purpose, only for the corpse, not for money. ”
Tianyi pursed his lips and was silent, he couldn't understand it at all.
Go up the steps, there is no monument in front of the tomb, it is estimated that it is not yet the time to erect the monument, the surroundings are very clean and you can see that there are people cleaning regularly, there are tributes in front of the tomb, it is cakes and fruits, I walked a few steps forward and saw a hole behind the tomb, the diameter is about half a meter, and the size of those before is the same.
Squatted down in front of the entrance of the cave, and after carefully inspecting it, she sighed softly!
Mo Ziyu also came nearby: "What's wrong?" ”
Ling Lan shook her head slightly: "If you are tired, rest for a while." ”
The man asked Tianyi to fetch water, and asked her if she wanted to eat some food to replenish her strength.
'You also brought food?' Ling Lan was surprised, why didn't she take it out earlier, she was so hungry that her chest was pressed against her back.
Unexpectedly, Mo Ziyu backhanded: "That's not ready-made." ”
Looking along his fingertips, it turned out to be a tribute placed in front of the tomb.
Ling Lan: "..."
