Li Huaiyun glanced at Zhou Xiaolin, and when he looked at the other party's expression, he knew that he hated this place very much, with his back to the alley, and there were some vegetable leaves and food residues all over the ground.

Fortunately, there are only a few people around drinking tea and chatting, so people won't see anything unusual, this woman still loves to be clean, and she can't accept the taste of this stall, which can also be fast? Seeing these scenes of corpses, you can't be disgusted to death?

He listened carefully to Zhou Xiaolin and told him the contents of the dossier, there were a total of three arson cases, in addition to the old ministry of the King of Incheon, Uncle Liu, and a son of a rich family, who was engaged in the breeding business, and was responsible for the supply of meat and vegetables in the palace.

There is also a court official, an official of the household department.

is an official of the imperial court again, Li Huaiyun remembered that the previous case was an official of the Criminal Department, should there be officials from other ministries in the future case?

Pay attention to a neat and tidy.

The three houses burned down about the same time, and they were all silent fires, burning all three sleeping families to death.

The cause of the fire on the file is unknown, but the results of Li Huaiyun's search in the three houses showed that the location of the fire was basically in the study.

Unless the fire is unusually fierce and does not give people time to react, if it is something else, then all three families are obviously in a coma and no one wakes up.

According to the dossier, the three houses were only discovered after they had been burned down, and the biggest suspicion was that the surrounding neighbors did not react all night, which is very strange.

And the current situation immediately made him think of the black-robed man, the identity of Wei Shunkai of Shaoqing of Dali Temple, judging from the dossier, his family of more than 30 people was also burned to death in this way.

Obviously, it is the same modus operandi, and it must be particularly related to these three arson cases!

Looking at Li Huaiyun who was deep in thought, Zhou Xiaolin stood there, waited for a moment, and saw that he still didn't speak, so he shouted directly, "Hey! Whore, have you found anything? ”

When she shouted, the people sitting in the booth looked at Li Huaiyun one after another, causing Li Huaiyun to hurriedly bow his head and drink tea to hide his embarrassment, saying that he didn't know.

When everyone found out that there was no follow-up, Li Huaiyun immediately looked angry, "County Lord, can you respect me, don't call me a thief in public, let people know that we are investigating the case, maybe we will be targeted!" ”

Zhou Xiaolin didn't think so, but just pouted, "What do you call me anything." ”

"You're going to call me a thief, I'm really welcome to do something to you next time!"

"You dare? Believe it or not, someone will chop your hand off. ”

Li Huaiyun exhaled a heavy breath of turbidity, only slightly released the breath in her body, and at that moment, a strong wind rose all around, blowing her skirt fluttering.

"Didn't Si Zheng tell you that my realm is above the realm of Hedao?"

Zhou Xiaolin was surprised, Si Zheng really didn't tell him, and when the house was fighting against him, he was equal for a while, which made her mistakenly think that this person's martial arts cultivation was not high.

"Humph! How about that, can you deal with my father's army of 200,000? ”

"This can't be dealt with, but if the king of Incheon dares to have an army of 200,000 against me, believe it or not, he will say that he intends to rebel!"

Zhou Xiaolin was stunned for a moment, she had nothing to say, she could only wait for Li Huaiyun with a resentful look.

I was most afraid that the air would suddenly become quiet, in order to alleviate this embarrassment, Li Huaiyun immediately said, "These are three arson cases, the modus operandi, the time of the crime, and the location are very similar, it can be seen that it should be the same person!" ”

"As for the motive, it is written in the file that it is unknown, so this is the hardest part of the case!"

"If you consider the motive for the crime, do you think these three cases were committed by people?" Zhou Xiaolin asked, "Let the Demon Slayer Division investigate the case, it is obvious that it is a monster who is causing trouble." ”

"Of course I understand this, but I've checked several cases these days, and I found that monsters actually have motives, such as officials colluding with monsters, or someone uniting others to snatch women for selfish desires."

Li Huaiyun said, "So, if you want to figure out this case, the relationship between these three people also needs to be investigated, and the most feared thing is that if the three of them have no relationship, then this case can be characterized as a random crime committed by monsters!" ”

"There is no mention of the relationship between the three of them in the dossier, and what I know about Uncle Liu, he is quite upright and will not do those hurtful things!"

"Not necessarily!"

These words instantly made Zhou Xiaolin feel angry, and she pointed at Li Huaiyun fiercely, "You question my personality!" Uncle Liu is not that kind of person. ”

"Okay, okay! I don't have any opinion for the time being! Li Huaiyun raised his hand and said apologetically, "Next, let's go to the scene and take a look, maybe we can find clues and return your Uncle Liu's innocence!" ”

"Then don't talk too much! Hurry up and check it out! ”

Li Huaiyun and Zhou Xiaolin now drew the location of the three houses on the table, and then determined the direction of how to search, so as not to let themselves go wrong.

They searched carefully in the first two burned houses to see if there were any clues, and finally went to the house where Uncle Liu lived.

Coming to the front of the house, Zhou Xiaolin's eyes became a little dull, she tried to purse her lips, Uncle Liu was the personal guard of the King of Incheon in the house when she was very young, and he also took good care of her, and the relationship between the two was also like that of father and daughter.

I remember that when she was thirteen years old, she willfully went to the river to play, and after encountering the tide, Uncle Liu disregarded life and death, and went into the water to rescue her, due to the turbulent current, they were thrown to the reef, and Uncle Liu's knee was knocked down, fortunately, he endured the pain and struggled to swim back, which escaped, but also fell into some lame problems.

"In these three cases, a total of more than 60 people died, including more than a dozen children, the youngest is only half a year old, and the oldest is only more than ten years old, these children are really unfortunate!"

Zhou Xiaolin knew that those children were Uncle Liu's grandchildren, and this fire made his vein die, and she secretly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

Li Huaiyun stood in front of the charred black gate that had been burned by the fire, and he pushed the door, so that half of the door slowly fell backwards, kicking up bursts of black smoke.

They walked through the main entrance, and inside the house was a barren scene, littered with stone bricks and rubble, and charred black trees.

"Where are those corpses now?"

"In the Yizhuang on West Street against the city wall."

"There are more than 60 people, where can you put so many?" Li Huaiyun asked curiously.

"Just squeeze it! Moreover, in fact, there are more than 40 bodies! ”

"What else?"

"Basically, the children in these three houses have been burned to ashes, and only the adults still have the corpses!"

Li Huaiyun pinched his chin, "This is strange!" This burned too thoroughly, and the children were burned to the ground. ”

"Those adults were also burned beyond recognition, let alone children," Zhou Xiaolin said bitterly.

"Can you guarantee that the fire is the same everywhere in the house? And in the three houses in the case, this is the case in each house, where the children were burned to ashes and the adults were badly burned. ”

"This is so abnormal! Not in line with common sense. ”

"What common sense do monsters have to do!"

Li Huaiyun explained, "Even if it is a monster, it can't be too similar, it's exactly the same." ”

"In this case, there is only one possibility, when there is a fire, everyone is unconscious?"

Li Huaiyun's analysis suddenly gave Zhou Xiaolin a new idea in his mind, it is true! This analysis is quite accurate.

"You are right, but why isn't it that the fire is so strong that it surrounds them all and has nowhere to escape?"

"The dossier says that the corpses are close to the bedside of the house, and if they knew that there was a fire, they would get up and run anyway! Therefore, it is certain that they did not know it, and the smoke and dust caused by such a large fire must have an effect on people's breathing, so they did not get up, they could only have been asleep! ”

"Therefore, the most important thing at the moment is to find the place where the fire first started in the house, so that you can roughly understand whether the purpose of this fire is to burn people or things."

Zhou Xiaolin suddenly realized, "The biggest possibility is that someone can't find something, so they directly burn down here." ”

"That's right!"

"But it should be difficult to find a fire point!" Zhou Xiaolin looked around, there were such burned ruins everywhere, and the house was so big, it would be difficult to find the location of the fire.

"Do you remember where the fire was put out in the file?" Li Huaiyun asked.

Zhou Xiaolin led Li Huaiyun to the back door of the house, "According to the contents of the dossier, it should be here, the door is closed, only the back door is less fire, you can climb over the wall and open the back door." ”

Li Huaiyun stood at the back door, and then walked forward slowly, he carefully observed the situation on the ground, as well as the damage on the surrounding walls, from these superficial conditions, the further the fire went, the bigger it became, and the more serious the burn became.

As they looked deeper, the study was the most burned out, no less than the master bedroom.

"In this way, there should be two places where the fire is most intense, one is the room where the children sleep, and the other is the study."

"We saw about the same thing in the other two houses before."

Li Huaiyun frowned, with a puzzled look on his face, "No wonder those children were burned!" Also, why would they want to do it to those kids? Weird! Weird! ”

"Definitely! I thought these three people would be the target, but I can't think of it! ”

"There's definitely something wrong with that."

Zhou Xiaolin pondered for a moment, "There is no one in this study, but there is such a big fire, it should be expected that there is something in the study." ”

"Then dig and see! Maybe we'll dig up something! Li Huaiyun rolled up his sleeves and walked to the ruins, then put on his fist gloves and muttered softly, "Dig and dig in the small ruins, dig and dig up the corpse and a baby!" ”

Zhou Xiaolin listened to the words he muttered, and said with a disgusted face, "You can't respect the deceased, but Uncle Liu is the elder I respect the most." ”

"Okay, then I won't sing, why don't you come over and dig together, maybe if you dig up some clues, you can find the murderer who killed him!"

Zhou Xiaolin looked at the ruins, as well as the charred stones and charcoal, although she also wanted to go up, but she never dared to go up to help, "Or I'll call someone!" ”

"Do you need to be so troublesome? If we didn't listen to what the government said, we must keep the case confidential. ”

Li Huaiyun is still digging here, this study was burned and collapsed, so there was a bit of rubble, and after a while, I heard Zhou Xiaolin shouting.

He turned his head and frowned, "What's going on?" Why are you yelling all of a sudden? ”
