After waiting for a long time, I didn't see everyone coming up, so I asked the shopkeeper to come over and told him to make 15 pots of rice and kill a few pigs.

Pigs are raised, compared to the pigs and beasts in the mountains and forests are completely different from another animal, fat and delicious, the key is not smelly, it is a high-end food.

The shopkeeper was a little confused, Ye Xing took out 50 taels of silver and put it on the table, and the shopkeeper understood and hurriedly called the boss.

Waiting for the boss to come out, Ye Xing took out the token of the county guard and said, "Our city guards have lunch here, hurry up and prepare, there are 150 people, prepare 15 big tables for me." ”

The boss didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly went to prepare, Ye Xing gave him the silver, asked him to go grocery shopping, and started cooking immediately.

Because the amount of money asked for was too large, the boss hurriedly invited all the people from the restaurant next to him to help.

For a long time, when the special training team came to the town, they were tired to death, and they were so hungry that they were weak, and they were all listless, like the people in the disaster area who had fled.

A few clever people had already seen Ye Xing's horse, and after a second round of their eyes, they saw Ye Xing drinking tea there on the side of the road.

Everyone immediately walked over, sat directly on the ground one by one, and didn't move, Ye Qingyan also led the horse over to tie the reins, picked up the teapot in front of Ye Xing and poured it straight to the mouth.

Ye Xing smiled, asked the shopkeeper to take out a few large buckets for everyone to drink, and instructed a few captains who seemed to be more energetic to arrange tables with the shopkeeper, and set up 15 tables on the side of the road, so that they could serve food for lunch immediately.

After walking more than 70 miles in one morning, they didn't have enough to eat in the morning, so these people were really hungry and panicked, like refugees.

Naturally, everyone had no grace, and they grabbed and ate for a while, and then they ate slowly, and they also remembered that Ye Xing, the murderous commander, was by their side, and they didn't dare to make noise, and they were quietly cultivated.

Ye Xing asked the 15 captains to come over and said, "Wait a minute, just rest here, you arrange to buy pots, salt, rice and the like, I won't care about your dinner, and I won't have a place to sleep, I'll solve it all by myself." ”

The captains nodded, knowing that Commander Ye would no longer care about his own people from now on, and returned to his team to discuss.

Ye Xing quickly finished eating and continued to drink tea, when the shopkeeper came over, bowed to Ye Xing, and said, "Lord Commander, this is the remaining silver taels." Both hands handed over more than twenty taels of broken silver.

Ye Xing asked, "You asked someone else to help, and you don't have to pay for hard work?" ”

The shopkeeper hurriedly said, "It's already given, it's enough." ”

Ye Xing didn't answer, and said, "Take a look and prepare some dry food for each person." You don't have to ask if it's good or not, the key is to be full. If you don't have enough money, ask me again. ”

The boss nodded and turned to leave.

Ye Xing walked out, Ye Qingyan wanted to follow, Ye Xing said, "You rest here, I'll go shopping."

Shishan Town is really a big town, and a mountain town like Yunshan Town is far inferior, because people come and go, and naturally there are all kinds of people.

Ye Xing's appearance is very small, but his outfit is the green military uniform unique to the city guards, and he is also equipped with weapons, and his figure is much taller than ordinary people.

Everyone knew that it was the city guards, so no one dared to look at him for fear of getting into trouble.

Ye Xing didn't have much to do, he just wanted to investigate different customs and customs.

When I came to a street in the town, I saw a large group of onlookers in front of a small alley, which was very noisy.

At any time, there is a group of idlers everywhere, and they will gather together when they have nothing to do, and they will definitely watch when they have something.

Ye Xing walked forward to find out that a homicide had occurred.

The case was discovered in the morning, it was the murder of a family in the alley last night, the children of a family of four, a couple and two minors.

There are very few officials in the town, and there may not have been such a vicious case for a long time, and they don't know how to investigate the case, so they just protect the scene;

asked people to report to the county town quickly, and no one has been handling the case until now.

Seeing Ye Xing's outfit, those people thought that Ye Xing was sent by the county town to investigate the case, so they automatically gave way to it.

There was an official who ran over and asked Ye Xing to come in, meaning to ask Ye Xing to handle the case.

Ye Xing didn't want to pay attention to it, but thinking that he was also a city guard, and it was his responsibility to defend the land, he walked in, and the mayor was not there, so he should go back and wait for someone from above.

The little official introduced some of the things that happened to Ye Xing, that is, in the morning, the neighbor found blood stains at the mouth of the back alley, found the family's house, and discovered the case.

reported to the town office, and the town government had already sent someone to report to the county seat.

Ye Xing didn't speak, so he asked people to bring a team of city guards outside the town, and he carefully observed the house.

The house is small, with only three rooms, a kitchen and a hall.

The man's throat was cut in the hall, and his face was frightened and stunned;

The woman had her neck pinched off in the kitchen and had blood on her hands;

The two children were stabbed to death directly in the room.

Ye Xing carefully observed each room and didn't say anything.

At this time, a captain ran over, it was Tang Xiaoshan, who used to be a herald, and then his skills increased greatly, and this special training competed for the position of captain.

Ye Xing asked everyone to guard both sides of the alley, not letting anyone enter or leave, and asked a soldier to ask Ye Qingyan to lead the horse over.

Soon Ye Qingyan came, and Ye Xing took out a magnifying glass and some powder from the package on the horse.

Ye Xing walked up to the deceased, squatted down, carefully observed with a magnifying glass, asked Tang Xiaoshan to hold a pen and paper, and said to himself, let him record.

"The male deceased was suddenly killed by someone he knew, and the murder weapon was a knife, a short knife! The murderer should have made a sudden move during the conversation, and the deceased did not have time to resist. ”

"And it didn't make any loud noise, and it didn't affect the women and children in the other room."

"The female deceased, who was cooking in the kitchen at the time, was attacked from behind and crushed her throat, the murderer knows martial arts, and she should be a good skill."

"The female deceased was not sexually assaulted, and the blood stains on the female deceased's hands should have scratched the murderer's hand or face before death."

"The two children were killed in their sleep, without any resistance, the crime should have happened late at night, and it was an acquaintance who committed the crime."

Ye Xing sprayed powder on the windows and windowsills with a watering can, and carefully observed it with a magnifying glass, and then said:

The killer crawled out of the window of the child's room. The murderer was a man, not tall, with large palms, and even more wounds on his right hand, which were scratched by the fingernails of the female deceased. The ring finger of the left hand should be missing. ”

Ye Xing turned his head and whispered to Ye Qingyan, "Let each team immediately guard the entrances and exits of the town, and no one is allowed to leave the town." ”

"All adult men are checked, there are injuries in their right hands and missing fingers in their left hands, and they are immediately arrested."

Ye Qingyan flew out.

Ye Xing asked the little official to find all the neighbors here and stand in a row.

Ye Xing faced everyone and asked solemnly, "Was there any noise late last night?" Or something like a dog barking? ”

Everyone didn't dare to speak, and they lowered their heads one by one, only a bold middle-aged man shook his head and said, "It seems that I didn't hear any abnormal sound all night, and the dog didn't bark." ”

Ye Xing walked to the back alley and saw some blood stains that were still red, and only saw a little blood stains from a long distance, and behind the alley was another street, and there were no blood stains on the street.

Ye Xingdao: "After the murderer left the alley, he should have stopped the bleeding or got on the horse or carriage and left." ”

Let Ye Qingyan take out a piece of cotton cloth for bandaging from the horse, cut off a small piece, and stained it with blood on the windowsill.

Ask the official to bring a big dog, put a leash, let the dog smell the blood, and then let the dog go after it.

To great surprise, the dog had only taken a few steps along the bloodstains in the alley before turning his head to look at the crowd.

Ye Xing immediately turned his head to look at the crowd, secretly holding the flying knife in his hand.

Leading the dog to the crowd, the dog walked straight to a lewd middle-aged man, the dog circled around the man, and the man looked inexplicably innocent.

Tang Xiaoshan raised his knife to the man, and shouted loudly: "Raise your hands to your head!" ”。

Several city guards foolishly surrounded this man, and the man had to raise his hands and say tremblingly:

"Great, what's the matter?"

Ye Xing sneered, circled around the man, and stared at the man's hands;

Sure enough, the left hand was missing the ring finger, and the right hand was bandaged with a cloth.

Ye Xing sneered, "Tie up this person and send it to the town office, this person is the murderer!" ”

The man screamed that he had been wronged, and the city guards didn't even pay attention to the man and tied him up.

Ye Xing asked Tang Xiaoshan to lead the team to escort to the town office.

Ye Xing asked the junior official to take the residence of the person who recognized him to the suspect's home to search, and sure enough, a short knife was found.

It's just that there is no blood, it should have been cleaned, but nothing else has been found.

It's just that when Ye Xing went to the town office, Tang Xiaoshan ran over to report that the murderer had died on the road, poisoned to death, with black blood from his mouth, and the poison was hidden in his teeth.

A murder case was closed somehow, and as for whether there is still an inside story, there is no evidence for the death now.

Ye Xing was a little stunned, but he couldn't think of a way, so he had to stop.

Ye Xing asked Tang Xiaoshan to hand over the investigation record to the town mayor, and he didn't even go into the town office, and then went to find an inn to stay.
