Chen Anning was silent for a moment and replied, "The second type." ”

Xu Zan once again grabbed ahead of Xie Xun and asked, "Why?" ”

Chen Anning walked into the woods again.

Xie Xun and Xu Zan followed.

"In the first case, the killer would have to face the problem of how to get him away from the woods." Chen Anning raised his head and glanced at the trees in the forest, "If it were me, I would probably cut down the branches and hide the boy in it, and then carry it out." But in this way, there is another problem. No matter how you cut down the branches, there will be movement. How can the murderer be sure that no villagers will pass by or attract the attention of the villagers during the cutting process? ”

"Of course, if you don't have to hide it with a branch, you can directly carry the stunned teenager out, and you also have to face this problem."

After Xu Zan glanced at Xie Xun, he asked, "But if it's the second case, it is also possible to face this problem." ”

Chen Anning said: "It is true that we will face this situation. But if you are a missing teenager and I tell you that I found a gold mine somewhere, and I only tell you one person, and we hurry up and dig it, what will you do? ”

Xu Zan glanced at Xie Xun again, and said, "It's amazing, last time it was just a job of two hundred dollars a day, but this time it has directly become a gold mine." ”

Chen Anning looked at Xie Xun.

Xie Xun also looked at her.

The moment they looked at each other, the corners of their mouths turned up slightly at the same time.

However, it was only a little upturned before it was interrupted.

The two were interrupted by an elderly couple from Wuzhu Village.

The old couple had just come back from going to the field, and when they passed by, they heard a voice in the woods, and the uncle recognized it as Xie Xun's voice, so he asked loudly: "Lord Xie has come to investigate the case of Erwa again?" ”

Xu Zan immediately got out of the woods and responded: "Yes, has the uncle and aunt found any new clues in the past few days?" ”

The uncle was about to speak, but the eldest mother stopped him and said, "I wonder if the two adults brought eggs or oil cakes this time?" ”

"Auntie, this time I came in a hurry, and I didn't prepare anything." Xu Zan took out a broken piece of silver from his arms and shook it in front of the two of them, "But don't worry, auntie, if uncle and aunt provide useful clues, we will definitely not treat you badly." ”

The eldest lady reached out and was about to take the broken silver.

Xu Zan quickly retracted his hand, "Auntie, according to the old rules, you can only get paid if you tell useful clues." ”

"We've all said what we should say," the uncle said to the eldest mother, "where are there other clues?" ”

"Just be honest!" After glaring at the uncle fiercely, the eldest lady walked away with a long face.

The uncle smiled bitterly and gave Xu Zan two salutes, and hurriedly chased after her.

In the woods.

Chen Anning, who witnessed the whole process, glanced at Xie Xun: "Oil cake? Egg? ”

"It's the time when the farm is busy," Xie Xun casually explained, "and there must be some sincerity so that they can put down their farm work and cooperate with the investigation." ”

Chen Anning gave him a thumbs up.

Xie Xun watched her movements, couldn't help but chuckle twice, and said, "It seems that we have the same idea, but it's a pity that the clue is stuck here." ”

Chen Anning glanced at the woods: "It's not easy to take such a big person out quietly. Didn't you look up the ox carts, donkey carts, or wheelbarrows in the village? ”

Xie Xun sighed: "I checked, and there is alibi evidence." ”

Chen Anning said: "That's this familiar person, not from Wuzhu Village?" ”

The sunset dissipated.

It was getting dark.

Xie Xun paced out of the woods, looked at the main road at the foot of the mountain looming in and out of the village in the hazy night, and sighed again: "I have checked everything, and there is evidence of alibi." ”

Chen Anning looked at the road with him, and after being silent for a long time, he said, "There can be no perfect crime in the world. ”

"There really is no such thing as a perfect crime in the world," Xie Xun agreed, "so we have to continue to investigate." ”

Chen Anning nodded, "There are no convenient conditions, but it is not easy to find so many clues in such a short period of time." Check it slowly, don't rush. ”

"Don't worry, no," Xu Zan followed, also standing side by side with them, "As long as the murderer is not arrested for a day, he may commit the crime again." And every time a crime is committed, it is the disappearance of a child. In addition, this is the first fresh case handled by Ah Xun after taking over Dali Temple. If there is a head and no tail, or the murderer cannot be caught for a long time, the old stubborn ...... in the court who have opposed the emperor's promotion of Ah Xun"

Xie Xun interrupted him: "It's not early, bring the horse back and go back." ”

"Got it!" What a big deal! Xu Zan quickly turned to Chen Anning's side, and continued, "Those old stubborns will definitely impeach Ah Xun in a gang. Although the emperor will not blame Ah Xun for this, it is annoying enough for anyone to listen to a bunch of old stubborn chatters all day long. ”

Chen Anning shrugged, "What's so difficult about this?" Whoever impeaches and who thinks the case is simple, then let whoever is responsible. ”

Xu Zan touched his nose, "I thought that Miss Chen Er would say, don't worry, with you, you will never let such a thing happen." ”

Chen Anning looked at him amusedly, and then at Xie Xun, "Master Xie can't solve the case for a while, how big of a face do I have to dare to say such a thing?" ”

Xu Zan tilted his head, "But Ah Xun said that as long as you are willing to help, this case will definitely be solved." ”

Chen Anning glanced at Xie Xun again, "I helped, but you also saw the result." ”

Xu Zan said tentatively: "Maybe you haven't helped enough?" ”

Xu Anning raised his hand with a smile, pulled his sleeve, and said, "Good, I don't like to hear this sentence, I'll give you a chance to say it again." ”

Xu Zan quietly took two steps back, "We have been investigating for so long before we found such a clue. Miss Chen Er only came this time, and it is normal that she didn't find any results. ”

"Remember to speak well in the future." Chen Anning put away his hand, "Go, hurry up and lead the horse over, I'm hungry." ”

"Okay." Xu Zan turned around and ran away.

Chen Anning followed Xie Xun and turned around, followed behind him, and left the woods.

Return to the capital.

It's dark.

Xu Zan returned to the Guogong Mansion alone.

Xie Xun took the guards and followed Chen Anning to Chen's house.

After the guards entered Chen's house, two of them sent the horses to the stables as if they were in their own homes. The rest of the people disappeared into the night and scattered everywhere.

"How much do you know about the slaughter of the Medicine King Valley." Walking side by side in the unclear moonlight, Chen Anning asked.

"Not much." Xie Xun replied briskly, "The Medicine King Valley has been independent of other countries since the day the Valley was established. But in the event of a war, the disciples of the Medicine King Valley will go out of the valley to various battlefields to treat the wounded and disabled generals free of charge. ”

"When the Medicine King Valley was slaughtered, it coincided with the war between the Wei State and the Jin State."

Chen Anning paused.

Xie Xun also stopped with her.

Chen Anning looked at him with a calm and indifferent gaze: "You mean that the slaughter of the Medicine King Valley is related to the war between Wei and Jin?" ”

"Whether it's closed or not, you have to check it to know." Xie Xun also looked at her, "How about it, do you want to cooperate?" ”
