Chapter 46: Bambooless Village, by the Grove

Xie Xun immediately stopped, turned to face her, waved his hand and bowed, and said, "The villain knows that he is wrong, and he also asks Miss Chen Er to spare the villain's life." ”

"What are you doing?" Xu Zan rode his horse and rushed to the two of them like the wind, looking at this, then at that, and finally at this, "Hey, Miss Chen Er!" ”

"Miss Chen Er is amazing," Xu Zan turned over and dismounted, and after circling Chen Anning twice, he slapped his beard and patted the horse, "When you wear women's clothes, you are bright and square." Changed into men's clothes, and was clear and handsome. Tsk, hate me not for my daughter, otherwise Miss Chen Er wouldn't marry! ”

Chen Anning looked at Xie Xun with a smile.

Xie Xun kicked Xu Zan away, "As long as you can, learn two words and use them everywhere!" ”

Xu Zan exaggeratedly covered his waist, "Second Miss Chen, you have to make the decision for me." ”

Chen Anning cooperated: "Say, how do you want me to call the shots for you?" ”

Xu Zan immediately said, "What were you doing just now, tell me?" ”

Chen Anning smiled at him, "We were discussing how to poison the best food just now!" ”

Xu Zan was so frightened that he quickly got on his horse and galloped away.

After Chen Anning chuckled twice, he looked at Xie Xun, "What about the horse?" ”

Xie Xun shouted in the direction Xu Zan had left, "Hurry up and bring the horse over!" ”

"It's coming!" Xu Zan led a white horse and came back with a bang, "Miss Chen Er, this is your horse." ”

Chen Anning led the horse, and as soon as his hand touched the horse's head, the horse rubbed over affectionately. patted the horse's back, the horse's front legs immediately knelt down again, well-behaved and gentle, after Chen Anning got on the horse and walked around the small garden twice, he couldn't help but praise: "It's really good!" ”

Xu Zan stepped forward immediately and invited credit: "I picked it!" ”

Chen Anning smiled and praised, "You are awesome!" ”

Xu Zan looked at Xie Xun proudly, and made persistent efforts: "It's a pity that we have to investigate the case, otherwise, Miss Chen Er wants to ride this horse to Pingkangfang for a walk, which will definitely cause the girls in the flower shop to squeak and scream." ”

"It's endless, isn't it?" Xie Xun slapped the butt of the horse he was riding.

Under the pain, the horse galloped away with Xu Zhan.

Xu Zan screamed, and after going around for most of the circle, he rode back again, "Miss Chen Er, you have to make the decision for me, I just praised you a few words, and he took revenge on me like this, obviously dissatisfied with you." ”

"You don't have to be like him." Chen Anning took out a porcelain vase from his arms and threw it at him, "I've rewarded you." ”

Xu Zan instinctively took it, and when he saw that it was a porcelain bottle, he was so frightened that he almost threw it out, "Chen, Chen Er......"

He's helping her speak, how can he take revenge?

Chen Anning glanced at him, "Antidote pills, don't want it, just give it back to me if you don't want it." ”

"Yes, why not!" As soon as he heard that it was an antidote pill, Xu Zan quickly stuffed it into his arms. After stuffing it, he glanced at Xie Xun proudly, patted the position of the porcelain bottle vigorously, and said loudly, "Mine, no one is allowed to rob me!" ”

Xie Xun said 'heh', turned over on the horse, and said, "Who is rare!" ”

"This is what you said, Miss Chen Er also listened, and you are not allowed to rob me when you turn around!" Xu Chan shouted.

Xie Xun kicked his horse's ass hard, "That's a lot of nonsense!" ”

Under the pain, the horse galloped away with Xu Zan again.

Chen Anning glanced at him with a smile, and then chased after him.

Xie Xun followed unhurriedly.

At the gate, eleven more guards were waiting.

After meeting them, everyone immediately set off, took Suzaku Street, passed the Mingde Gate, and after driving on the official road for half an hour, they turned off the trail and turned east and west for about half an hour, and finally arrived at Wuzhu Village.

Now.

The sunset is thick.

Xie Xun knew that the forensic doctor didn't like to go out at night because of the light, and he would ignore many important details. Therefore, he didn't say much, and took Chen Anning straight to the forest where the boy disappeared.

The forest is about two miles away from Wuzhu Village.

At the beginning, Xie Xun rushed to the scene as soon as he received the report.

After inspecting the scene, he specially arranged for the officials to take turns here.

Therefore, the site is still well preserved.

When the guards on the wheel all gathered around to report to Xie Xun, Chen Anning's gaze fell on the small slope not far away.

The small slope is about two meters high and has a 70-degree angle.

The small slope is overgrown with weeds.

Among the weeds, a coarse cloth about nine inches wide was covered.

Chen Anning walked towards the coarse cloth.

Xie Xun also asked the officials to retreat in a timely manner, stepped forward a few steps, and opened a rough sermon: "This is the only trace left by the missing youth. ”

Looking at the traces of slipping, Chen Anning stretched out his hand, roughly measured the length, and then measured the deformed shoe prints, and said: "The shoe length is about seven inches and five, and judging from the strength of the traces, it is about the same weight as the missing teenager." ”

After getting up and searching the front and back, Chen Anning swept down the small slope and walked into the woods.

There are not many fallen leaves in the woods.

Stepping on it, there will be an occasional creaking sound.

The woods are not big.

It takes about ten minutes to walk down in a circle.

"The boy was on his way to deliver food to his father and mother, and he lost his trace here." Chen Anning stood in front of the slippery foot marks, facing the woods and said, "There are no traces of a fight in the woods, no overturned food, not even a footprint of him walking out of the woods." That is, he disappeared out of thin air, right? ”

Xie Xun stood side by side with her and said, "So to speak. But you also know that after the child disappeared, the people in the village must first look for it themselves, and if they can't find it, they will report to the official. ”

His chin nodded a little in the direction of Wuzhu Village, and then continued: "You also saw when you came, and the most hidden people in this village are these woods. The villagers are looking for people, no matter the order, and they will definitely not miss these woods. If there are many people looking for it, even if there are any traces, they will have already been polluted. ”

According to the case file, there was a villager in his 40s who was working in the last forest on the day the boy disappeared. When the boy passed by to deliver food, the villagers not only saw him, but also talked to him. Chen Anning spoke slowly, "This villager in his forties, after your verification, not only has good eyesight, but also excellent hearing. ”

"The last forest is only seventy or eighty feet away from here, which is not too far and not too close, and if there is a fight or shouting here, he can hear it completely."

Xu Zan hurriedly said: "Yes, we have also done experiments." I followed the uncle to the head of his house, and Ah Xun arranged for people to fight and shout in the woods. The fight is hidden by the woods, and it is not clear to see, but when the shouts are made, they can be heard. ”

"And, if he keeps an eye on it, he'll be able to see people coming in and out of the woods."

"It's a pity that he didn't know that the boy would be missing, so he didn't notice it."

"What you said is very much in line with the situation on the scene. It's just that in this way...... Chen Anning pondered for a moment before he said with less certainty, "there are two situations." ”

Xu Zan immediately asked, "Which two situations?" ”

Chen Anning said lightly: "In the first case, he was killed here or taken away after being unconscious; In the second case, he was killed elsewhere. What both cases have in common is that they have to be acquainted to commit the crime. ”

Xie Xun looked at her, "Which kind of affection do you prefer?" ”
