Chapter 20: Not a Demon, But Man-Made

Zhou Jian nodded slightly, signaling Chu Xuan and Zhu Yiming to disperse, looking for clues in the mansion.

The two of them, one inside and one outside, began to search.

Zhu Yiming entered Zhang Zheng's room.

Chu Xuan came to the wall facing the back window of Zhang Zheng's wing.

There are tufts of yellow hair on the ground here.

There are also specks of blood next to it, I don't know if it's human blood or demon blood.

In addition to this, there are several messy paw prints on the fence.

Chu Xuan used his palm to compare.

It was found that the paw prints were larger than the palm of his hand.

"Such big claws, like a tiger demon." Chu Xuan said in his heart.

Although he had not read the files of the county government, Chu Xuan still knew some common demons through the memories of his predecessor.

For example, the fox demon is good at sucking men's essence.

Another example is the wild boar demon, who likes to eat people, but prefers to eat sweet potatoes.

The demons that hurt the most people are the wolf demon and the tiger demon.

The reason why the wolf demons are in front is because there are more wolf demons and fewer tiger demons.

This pinch of yellow hair obviously didn't come from the wolf demon.

Unless the wolf demon dyed the golden retriever.

Chu Xuan thought that it might be a little difficult to dye a golden retriever with the intelligence of a wolf demon.

So the first suspicion is the tiger demon.

At this time, Zhu Yiming poked his head out of the window, "I don't see anything here, what about you?" ”

Chu Xuan pondered for a moment and asked, "What is the situation in the wing, are there any traces of fighting, are there any traces of blood and hair?" ”

Zhu Yiming immediately replied, "A pair of tables and chairs in the wing room were broken, the vase fell to the ground, there were no traces of fighting, there was no bloodstain, and a few golden hairs fell to the ground. ”

"I guess Zhang was taken away by the tiger demon without any resistance in his sleep."

Chu Xuan thought thoughtfully, "Brother Zhu, how much do you know about the Tiger Demon." ”

Zhu Yiming smiled, "If you ask other demons, I really can't say much, but I know a lot about tiger demons." ”

"After all, one of the most famous dishes in my Tianxiang Mansion is the Quanhu Banquet!"

Chu Xuan immediately asked, "How long is a tiger demon?" How tall? How much does it weigh? ”

Zhu Yiming patted his head, "The tiger demon is generally one zhang long, three feet high at the shoulders, and weighs four or five hundred catties. ”

Chu Xuan looked at the courtyard wall more than a zhang high, and his eyes flashed.

"The tiger demon in this world is a little bigger and heavier than the tigers I have seen in the zoo, well, no, the weight is not necessarily comparable, the tigers in the zoo are almost fat into fat tigers......"

"Given the extraordinary strength of this world, the Tiger Demon's strength, bite force, and bounce power will definitely be stronger."

"The courtyard wall is more than one foot high, and even if you have a person in your mouth, you can easily cross it."

"Even if there are paw prints, they should be on the wall, and they will break a few tiles, but now the paw prints appear on the wall."

"It seems that I'm afraid it's not a tiger demon."

Chu Xuan's gaze inadvertently swept over the bloodstains, and the appearance of the bloodstains splattering made him think of something.

At this time, Zhou Jian had already listened to all the reports from Liu De, he came to Chu Xuan and Zhu Yiming, and asked with a headache, "What do you see?" ”

Zhu Yiming shook his head, "I can only guess that it should be the tiger demon who took Zhang Zheng away." ”

Zhou Jian looked at Chu Xuan again.

Chu Xuan shook his head, "I think it's not a tiger demon. ”

Zhou Jian became interested, "Tell me about it." ”

Chu Xuan said all his analysis.

Zhou Jian nodded again and again when he heard this, and said happily, "Indeed, the tiger demon can obviously jump over the courtyard wall, and it is impossible to leave paw prints on the wall." ”

Zhu Yiming shook his head, "That'...... Maybe it's left over from the fight? ”

Chu Xuan shook his head, "If it's a fight, then it will definitely alarm others, and in addition, the fight will definitely leave more blood splashes everywhere, but now there is only this pool of blood." ”

Zhou Jian was even happier, "Then what kind of demon do you think?" Wolf demon? ”

Chu Xuan shook his head again, "No, I think it was done by someone." ”

Everyone present was stunned for a moment when they heard this.

Even the weeping ladies stopped.

It wasn't the demons who did it, it was the people who did it?

That one might still have hope of being alive!

Zhu Yiming exclaimed, "What did someone do? What evidence do you have? ”

Chu Xuan came to the bloodstain next to the handful of golden hair.

"Everyone, look at this pool of blood."

"It's not dripping blood, it's splattering blood."

Zhu Yiming scratched his head, "What can you see from this?" ”

Chu Xuan continued, "In Zhang Zheng's wing, there are only traces of broken tables and chairs, and there are no traces of blood at all, indicating that there is no fight, and Zhang Zheng lost his combat effectiveness in an instant. ”

"The only blood trail is here."

"Imagine that this pool of blood was left by the tiger demon when he left with Zhang Zheng in his mouth."

Chu Xuan's mind flashed with a picture of a fierce tiger holding an adult man in its mouth.

"According to common sense, when the tiger demon holds Zhang Zheng in his mouth, the blood should drip from directly above or diagonally, either accumulating in one place or showing a straight line."

"But now, the pool of blood is splashed in a semi-arc."

Zhang Dahu couldn't help but say, "Little brother, but you still haven't said it, how can you tell that someone did it." ”

Chu Xuan nodded, "I know you're in a hurry, but don't worry yet." ”

"As we all know, the average height of the tiger demon is three feet, and if there is an adult man in its mouth, then the blood must also drip from the man's falling limbs."

"It is estimated that the height of the free fall of blood is no more than two feet, or even only one foot, and at this height, it is difficult for the blood to splash too far after it hits the ground."

"But these semi-arc-shaped splatters of blood are splattered in the direction of the courtyard wall."

According to the formula...... According to my guess, it must have been splashed from a height of four to five feet, which is the height I am throwing now. ”

As he spoke, Chu Xuan made a gesture to throw the blood out.

That's just over four feet.

Zhu Yiming seemed to have grasped something.

Zhou Jian showed joy, "Okay! Chu Xuan, you analyzed it well! is worthy of being Chu Gang's son! The ability to handle cases is really outstanding! ”

"Chu Gang? Is it the headcatcher in White River City? Liu De on the side remembered something.

Zhang Dahu exclaimed, "That Chu catcher? I also dined with him when I was doing business in White River City. ”

Zhou Jian nodded, "Exactly, Chu Xuan is Chu Gang's son, who came to our county government to catch fast." ”

Liu De, Zhu Yiming, Zhang Dahu and others suddenly cast admiring glances.

Chu Xuan smiled humbly, "My father usually tells me about my experience in handling cases, and I just know it." ”

The reason why he was able to see so many clues so quickly was because of the help of modern science.

On the other hand, thanks to the books he has read in this world, such as "Clearing Grievances", he has also comprehended the transformation realm.

The combination of the two aspects allowed him to have a case handling experience comparable to that of senior arresters.

Zhu Yiming couldn't help but ask again, "But, if it was done by a human, why did he pretend to be a demon?" ”

Zhou Jian nodded slightly, "This is a suspicious point, but it is already a major breakthrough to conclude that it is man-made, not demonic." ”

"Next, you can start the investigation from Zhang Zheng's usual enemies."

"In addition, the possibility of the rogue committing the crime cannot be ruled out."

"That's it, Chu Xuan, you go back to the county government to investigate the file, focusing on investigating the big bandits and thieves who have wandered to Yushan County. Zhu Yiming and I were collecting clues around Zhoukou Town. ”

Chu Xuan's heart moved, "Yes!" Let's do it. ”

He took on this case so that he could go through the file in a dignified manner.

Now, the purpose has been achieved.

Soon, Chu Xuan rode his horse and rushed back to the county office.
