Chapter 513: Who Did It?
Inside the inn, it was a mess.
Tables, chairs and benches were overturned to the ground, and even the flowers and trees in the courtyard were cut to pieces, and wooden pillars, stakes, and planks were split everywhere, which shows that there was a fierce fight in this courtyard at that time.
There were obvious traces of blood and dragging on the ground, but there was no corpse in sight, which showed that someone had cleaned up the corpse, so the other party was not just one person, but a group of people.
So, the whole town, aren't they all ......
Qi Yue walked slowly towards the inn, the lobby was also in chaos, there was no one on the left and right, and there were overturned tables, chairs and benches all over the floor, looking very weird.
Downstairs, no one.
Upstairs, no one either.
Qi Yue stood in the corridor on the second floor, looked thoughtfully at the empty lobby, frowned into the word "Chuan", exhaled quietly, and then walked downstairs unhurriedly and walked to the counter.
Although no one is there, and the body is in the inn, it doesn't mean that no trace is gone.
The account book is still there, and the account book in the inn clearly records that four people stayed overnight last night, and they came together.
In such a place, there are not many people, and there are not many people walking side by side, presumably these four people are the people of Qianji Pavilion, but the account book only records that people come in, and there is no record of who enters.
Closing the account book, Qi Yue walked towards the backyard.
The backyard is a stable stable, and there are no horses inside.
It's just that......
As soon as Qi Yue got closer, he smelled a strong smell of blood.
My heart tightened, and I stepped forward immediately.
Sure enough, in the corner of the stable, there was a thick pile of hay and traces of the renovated soil.
Qi Yue picked up the rake on the side and quickly brushed the hay away.
In an instant, he froze in place, and closed his eyes fiercely.
The people inside and outside the inn were killed, and they were buried here at this moment, and the murderers dug a shallow pit at random, and after throwing people into it, they covered it with thick hay.
Qi Yue bent down and squatted on the edge of the pit, carefully examining the corpses.
Most of the wounds are on the neck, and the shape is extremely slender, I don't know what kind of sharp weapon was used to cause it? The edges are not too flat, and it doesn't look like it's a sharp weapon, but it looks like it's strangled?
Qi Yue didn't figure it out for a while, what kind of sharp weapon could cause such a wound?
There was a sudden movement outside, it seemed that there were footsteps coming one after another, and his heart tightened, and he immediately ran out of the back wall and found a secluded place to hide, so as not to fall on his body.
It was the people from the government who came, and a large number of officials rushed into Anning Town, searching on the long street, and the leader was a common man, looking at the blood on his body, maybe he was a survivor, and he escaped and went to report to the official.
The officials all looked panicked, and they didn't seem to know it, because they might not have done such a thing, or the other party hadn't greeted the government at all.
The head catcher was obviously a little incredulous, especially when he heard the officials running back one by one, shouting the word "no one" one by one, the entire Anning Town was empty overnight, and everyone disappeared out of thin air.
But this time is different from the time in Baili Chang'an, it is obvious that something has happened to the people in the town, not like that time, even the tables, chairs and benches have been completely repaired.
The devastation is evidence of being looted and slaughtered......
"How can there be no one?" The headcatcher was angry, "How could the two days before we all disappear overnight? I don't believe it, how can I be so evil?"
The official asked in a low voice, "Head, could it be that there is an evil spirit?" Just like that year, Wangjia Village?"
"You're farting!" The head catcher took a sip, "Bullshit, we're all in the public family, can we still believe those things? It's okay to be bullied on weekdays, and the disappearance of these two is one eye and one eye is closed, but now, ...... It's the whole town, and it's a lot of power and people to make this happen."
The official was shocked, "The head said yes, but, but what the hell is going on?"
"I'm not a fortune teller, so how do I know what's going on? To give
I'll search, even if it's three feet into the ground, I'll find someone." The head catcher gritted his teeth, his eyes were fierce, "Wearing this clothes, I can't support justice on weekdays, I am already sorry for the conscience of heaven and earth, if the matter of Anning Town spreads again, what face do we have...... Explain to the people?"
Everyone looked at each other, "Yes!"
There are some on the ground, and there are traces of fighting in the house, and there are nine times out of ten...... Everything points to disaster.
Everyone knows it in their hearts, but they don't want to believe it.
That's a lot of lives!
It's all human life!
"If there is even a little hope, you can't give up!" The head catcher shouted angrily, "Shout for me, shout out, shout out one counts as one, life or death, life to see people and death to see corpses!"
Everyone shouted, "Yes!"
So, everyone shouted all over the street, so many people, won't they all disappear?
There are always one or two who can survive.
"Did you see their faces clearly? Even if it's just for a glance." The headcatcher asked.
The young man who led the way wiped his tears, "They rushed in and killed people, I was in the backyard to fetch water, and I jumped into the water at once, and I escaped the catastrophe, I really didn't see it clearly."
"Alas!" Catch your head and hold your forehead, "How can these dogs have such a great ability to harm the entire Anning Town?"
Anning Town is not big, it is a small town, but if you want to slaughter, you really need a lot of skills, and it is not an easy task.
"They are fierce and cover their faces." The young man seemed to have seen the scene of last night, "When I walked past the well, I just looked at it, but I couldn't see it clearly."
It's dark, and I can't see anything clearly.
"I can't help it." The head catcher is helpless.
The young man wiped his tears from his eyes, "Lord Headcatcher, can you accompany me home to have a look?" I'm alone, I don't dare ......."
"Let's go!" The headcatcher accompanies the side.
Qi Yue followed not far away, thought about it, then took a detour, went to the front and waited, he wanted to know more news, he had to follow them, after all, his own people were also folded inside.
"How could there be no one?" The young man scurried around inside and outside the house, "How could there be?"
The head catcher was stunned, "Still can't see people alive and dead without seeing corpses?"
He was so anxious that he scratched his head fiercely, it also takes time to dispose of the corpses, and he can't carry the corpses of so many people around, right?
Suddenly, it was as if something had suddenly fallen into the well......
