Chapter Ninety-One: The House Where the Body Was Parked
Liu Zhutou clenched his fists and explained, "Lord County Order! This case is even weird, if ordinary people such as me can solve it, they can only go to the people of the Demon Slayer Division, and only they can do this situation. ”
"Humph!" The county commander shook his hand vigorously, and he still couldn't forget the embarrassment when he was slapped in the face by those two people, and he has always been haunted by it.
However, this case is indeed quite weird, the county government has been quite unpeaceful in the past few days, before the water prison, and now the corpse escaped from the county government on its own.
If the boss blames him, he is afraid that the black yarn hat will not be guaranteed, and someone can solve it, of course he welcomes it, but the person who comes makes him grit his teeth with hatred.
"I hope you can solve the case! Return Kyoto to a peaceful place, don't let the Holy Lord down! ”
Li Huaiyun frowned, he was quite unhappy with this county order, how dare he use the emperor to oppress people?
"What do you mean? As long as it is confirmed that the case is a monster, the Demon Slayer will deal with it, and you don't need the county order to pick up the emperor to press us! ”
"I'm just reminding you that if the Demon Slayer Division doesn't handle the case well, you can't punish it."
"Even if you want to be punished, it's none of your business!"
"Why don't you care about my business, I'm the parent official in this area!"
"If you don't find the murderer, it's this generation of people who suffers!"
"The whole article is full of righteousness! If you really think about the people, why would you embarrass a weak woman! ”
"You..." The county commander is a little angry and doesn't know how to speak.
Seeing the tension between the two parties, Liu Zhutou immediately came out to mediate, "Don't quarrel with the two of you, the most important thing at the moment is to find out the case clearly, you can't solve the case if you quarrel here!" ”
Li Huaiyun agreed with this, he still had to go back to celebrate his aunt's birthday, he had no time, so he wasted it here.
"What Liu Zhutou said is very true, hurry up!"
"Hmm!"
They walked briskly to the place where the county government had placed the body.
"What an attitude!" The county commander looked at the backs of the two of them in the distance, his heart was still full of anger, he directly brushed his sleeves and walked to the inner hall of the county office.
Li Huaiyun followed Liu Zhutou, "This county order always looks like this. ”
"That's how my lord is, I've been working with him for so many years, I'm used to it! He doesn't have much ability, he is a little lustful, and he doesn't care about himself when he does things! ”
"Although this county government is in Kyoto, it is like a dying old man, lifeless."
Li Huaiyun said, "If there is a chance, will Liu Zhutou leave here?" ”
"Yes! I hope to enter Dali Temple one day! It's a bland place! Yulu is only enough to eat! ”
"If you have a chance, I will definitely recommend Liu Zhutou in the future!"
"Really!" Liu Zhutou immediately turned around, hugged his fists and thanked, "Then thank you, brother!" ”
They came to the room where the corpses were kept, and from the time they entered the hallway, to the innermost room, there were all kinds of impacts on the beams and stone pillars, and all kinds of knife marks, especially the door, where only half of the door was left diagonally.
And the inside of the house was also a mess, the ground was full of broken wood and white cloth, and the other corpses were lying there in all directions, such a scene looked like a fight.
Li Huaiyun walked into the room, "When the corpse was about to leave, you stepped forward to stop it, right?" ”
Liu Zhutou also followed, clenching the saber in his hand, thinking of what happened here before, he was a little afraid, if he wasn't careful at the time, I am afraid that he would have been poisoned.
"Yes, when I and two other subordinates were inspecting the county office, we noticed some voices here, so we immediately rushed here and entered the house with torches to find out!"
Li Huaiyun found that Liu Zhutou had this courage quite rarely, and if it was someone else, he might have ignored it directly, or went directly to the Demon Slayer Division.
"After looking around inside, nothing else was found, and suddenly, the two bodies jumped up from the plank, and they rushed straight out the door! We were taken aback, so we chased after us, and after a fight in the corridor, we reached the backyard of the yamen, where our men were outnumbered and were run away by the two corpses! ”
Liu Zhutou moved his shoulder, "I was also a little injured because of this." ”
"I see!" Li Huaiyun looked around, "What's going on at the scene?" Why is it so messy, doesn't it mean that when you came, those two bodies were lying there? ”
"We also wondered about this matter, and after we couldn't find the body, we immediately notified the county order, and we didn't expect to return to the morgue, and it would be such a mess here."
Li Huaiyun paced back and forth, looking puzzled, this thing was already quite strange, and the corpse ran away, messing up this place, but it was even more strange.
"The corpse ran out of the county office, it's hard to understand, and it's not known why it's so messed up here!"
As he spoke, he walked around the room, which was located in the corner of the county office, and was not lit all year round, so it was quite damp, and the room where the corpses were stored was the same as when he was in the water prison.
He took a deep breath, and then, according to Liu Zhutou's description, stood where the two bodies were lying before.
There was brown dirty water nearby, and at the same time, there were several pieces of fabric that had been torn off of clothes, and Li Huaiyun took the piece of cloth in his hand and observed it carefully for a moment.
"When you were blocking them, did you find any clothes on those two corpses, and were they missing?"
"At that time, we were all panicked and didn't notice it."
Li Huaiyun flipped over the pieces of fabric carefully, "These pieces of fabric should be the chest position of the clothes." ”
Liu Zhutou stepped forward, "Oh! Dude, how do you tell? ”
"I am quite familiar with the two deceased, they used to set up a stall to sell food, and the clothes on their bodies are also unchanged all year round."
"The upper body and arms need to swing frequently, so in terms of wear, the wear and tear of the joints and clothing is even more severe."
"And if you look at the fabrics, they don't wear any of them, so, I guess, someone ripped the clothes off their chests!"
"Is this morgue house guarded?"
"Someone will watch it for a while, and then they'll leave."
"I guess I sneaked into the house when no one was around."
Chen Xunyi briefly talked about the case that put him in prison before.
"What does my brother mean that someone infiltrated the county government and disposed of the hearts of the two deceased, so that the two corpses could move on their own?"
"Yes!"
Liu Zhutou's expression suddenly tightened, although he had heard of this matter before, but he had only heard of it, and he did not have an in-depth understanding, and now when he heard Li Huaiyun say it, he was a little nervous in his heart, and suddenly felt that the surroundings were gloomy and terrifying.
"So how do I check now?"
Li Huaiyun thought for a while, "People like Yin Sorcerers are too evil, not to mention me, a demon hunter, even if it is a demon hunter, I may not be able to deal with it." ”
"Then let them do their own thing."
"That's not it, the Demon Slayer Division will never tolerate such a thing." Li Huaiyun said, "The most important thing now is to figure out why the Yin Sorcerer wants these two corpses? ”
"They are just ordinary vendors, there is no need to come to the county government to do these things, if they attract the attention of the Demon Slayer Division, it is not trouble!"
Liu Zhutou immediately realized the problem, "Brother, have you ever thought that this Yin Magician just wants to attract the attention of the Demon Slayer Division. ”
"To get the attention of the Demon Slayer?" Li Huaiyun faintly felt that there was some truth in this.
"There have been criminals who have done this before, openly provoking us, and after interrogation, saying that it was just to show their boldness."
Li Huaiyun muttered softly, "This is possible!" Maybe it's to find something! ”
Only then did Liu Zhutou think of a possibility, and he suddenly got up and went to the corner of the room, where there was a table on which something had been found from the corpse.
And coincidentally, he didn't see anything like that.
"Looks like it's for the string!" Liu Zhutou patted the table lightly, then turned around and walked towards him.
"String? What Liu Zhutou said is that the rope of special material is used to tie tokens! ”
"Hmmm! It's been taken now! Carelessly, I shouldn't have put such an important thing here. ”
Li Huaiyun comforted, "Who knew that someone would come to steal this kind of thing!" ”
Liu Zhutou didn't speak, and after losing the clues on the corpse, the expression on his face became quite gloomy.
Li Huaiyun stood up and clapped his hands, "This case will be investigated here first, and the rest will be handed over to the Demon Slayer Division!" I will go and discuss with the secretary and let more people come to ensure the safety of the county officials. ”
Liu Zhutou hugged his fists and thanked him, "Then I wrote my brother first!" As long as you help, I believe that the murderer will be caught soon. ”
"Hmm!" As soon as Li Huaiyun's voice fell, in a corner of the room, there were some squeaky sounds, which frightened everyone present a little panicked.
The catchers took out their sabers, held them in their hands, and looked around, for fear that something would suddenly pounce on them.
Li Huaiyun looked in the direction where the voice came from, and saw that in a pile of stones, something was squeezing out of the ruins, and slowly began to move, he stepped forward and carefully found a wooden stick.
He squatted down, then used a wooden stick, lightly patting, ready to slowly dig out the contents.
Such a small action also made the people present feel scared.
At this moment, a strange thing appeared in the pile of stones, and slowly came out of the pile of stones, which explained why the stone was moving just now.
Li Huaiyun sighed, "It turned out to be just a mouse!" ”
As the stone was slowly broken away by the stick, a red wooden doll appeared inside, this puppet doll was about 20 centimeters in size, the face was relatively detailed, but it was covered with blood, and the lower body was dressed in a simple burlap cloth.
Judging from the shape and material, this thing should be a simple toy, relatively cheap.
"Strange, that's it?."
He put the puppet in front of Liu Zhutou, "Brother Liu, where did this doll come from?" ”
"It was the father and daughter, and what was found on the daughter may be that the little girl has no toys."
Li Huaiyun flipped the puppet doll up and down, left and right, and didn't find anything strange, he thought to himself that maybe it was really just a small toy.
At this moment, he touched what seemed to be something inside the puppet doll's body.
Li Huaiyun reached into the fabric, and then touched a cold object, and he immediately retracted his arm.
"Is there something?" Seeing this, Liu Zhutou immediately asked.
"Yes!" Li Huaiyun put on the fist gloves, and then reached into the doll's body again, slowly pulling out the contents inside.
When it first came out, it was still dripping with slimy liquid, and it looked quite disgusting.
