Chapter 209: Unskilled Killer
Everyone looked at the bloody pheasant, and they all had a strange feeling in their hearts.
Yesterday's bloody warning note did say, one day, take a grade. It seems to be vicious, so everyone should think that the murderer will kill nine times out of ten.
Who would have thought that a chicken would be killed.
Things suddenly seemed to be less terrifying, but still weird.
Ming Shi saw that Xia Yue was coming, and said, "Lord Xia, look." ”
Xia Yue saw it.
"This was discovered by the monks during their night patrols." Ming explained: "But there is no one in sight, only this pheasant." ”
Ye Caitang squatted down and took a look, the blood of the pheasant had not yet dried, the wet feathers were all over the ground, and the head was cut off with a sharp weapon.
Ye Caitang asked Wang Tong to bring the torch closer to illuminate it, and looked at the wound repeatedly.
The victim, whether it is a person or something else, the wound is the most direct contact between the murderer and the victim, and it can reflect many things.
Forensic doctors do the most, that's the kind of work.
Different wounds and causes of death represent different shapes of murder weapons, the physical condition of the murderer, the mental condition of the murderer or the victim, the time of the crime, the place of the crime, and whether it was the first crime scene.
Although today's victim is a pheasant, Ye Caitang is also conscientious and works hard.
Then Ye Caitang stood up and said, "This is a pheasant." ”
Although no one spoke, the wind blew at this moment, and everyone's hearts must be desolate.
After carefully looking at the work brought by the six doors, I came to such a conclusion.
Ming Shi thinks now, if he knew yesterday, it would be better to say that the temple would not accept female guests, and directly drive Ye Caitang away, so as not to pretend to be a show now.
Amitabha, monks don't speak.
But Ye Caitang continued: "The blood has not yet coagulated, and the time of death is within a quarter of an hour, that is, just after death, it was discovered. ”
This is something that anyone can see.
Ye Caitang said: "Because of the good environment on Xiangluo Mountain, monks often feed small animals in the mountain, so I went up the mountain today and saw some small beasts. ”
Squirrels, rabbits, and a flash of the woods, I don't know if it's a wild dog or what.
In this era, people have not yet occupied a large area of nature, so there are many wild things in the mountains. There are many people in Xiangluo Mountain, but the Buddhists do not kill, not only do they not kill, but when they can't find food on the mountain in winter, they often go to sprinkle some food to feed it, and even there are devout believers who buy it from the side to release it.
With such a toss, even if there are many people in Xiangluo Mountain, there are also animals.
"A bloody pheasant is thrown here, and if it takes too long, it is very likely to be taken away by the beast, and it will not achieve the intended purpose of the murderer."
"So I think the murderer knows the time of the temple patrol well, and deliberately dropped the pheasant before the patrol team came, and he is a person who is very familiar with the temple, and this person is in the temple now."
When they heard this, they all thought for a moment.
Then he explained: "This is impossible. ”
Xia Yue said: "Why? ”
Ming Shi explained: "Because of the note left by the murderer, the poor monk specially told him tonight that no one should be left alone, no matter what he does, at least a group of three to five people." And tonight there are people patrolling the whole temple, and no one is resting. ”
The idea is the same as Xia Yue, and he can't be left alone tonight. No wonder the people who went to summon saw a group of three people coming out of the room, and they didn't show any strange expressions.
Avoiding suspicion is to avoid suspicion, and life is fatal.
Ye Caitang said: "That may not necessarily be the monks in the temple, this Xiangluo Mountain is so big, there are always people living nearby." ”
Ming Shi hesitated: "There is." There are always dozens of families in the vicinity of Xiangluo Mountain. ”
So it's not necessarily the monks of the temple, maybe it's the people nearby, and then maybe it's the people from the outside, lurking in the temple, and it may be the collusion between the inside and outside, everything is possible.
Ye Caitang didn't care about the blood in his hand at all, and pinched the broken neck to pick up the pheasant.
"Judging by the wounds, the victim ...... I mean, this pheasant, its neck was cut with a sharp knife, the cut was outward, and the blood was splattered inward, and the murderer was not very good at that, he was not a chicken killer, and if nothing else, he should have been sprayed with blood. ”
This was a surprise to everyone, and Wang Tong even tried it.
"Really." Wang Tong gestured a few times: "So this murderer ...... The first time he used the Buddha's head, the second time he used the chicken's head, did he dare not kill? ”
It's a bluff to scare people.
What's going on with this tone of anticipation? Everyone wanted to go up and cover Wang Tong's mouth.
Wang Tong knew that he was speechless, and hurriedly said: "I didn't mean that, I mean, what does the murderer want to do like this?" ”
If he just wanted the Buddha's head, he would have taken it.
If you want to threaten, then you always have to say what you want, and then you can negotiate.
What's the point of that?
If you just want to panic in Huguosi, what panic can killing a chicken bring? It doesn't mean much, it's just a toss.
Are you full of food and playing with everyone?
Xia Yue looked at Ming Shi, and Ming Shi was also at a loss, obviously he couldn't answer this question either.
Seeing that the sky was about to dawn, Xia Yue said: "Since it is a pheasant, there is finally no danger, let's continue to patrol." If the other party asks for anything, always ask for it. ”
If you put it forward, it will be easy to deal with and negotiate. If you don't say anything, it's very troublesome and not good for everyone.
Now it can only be like this, last night everyone patrolled the temple all night, it was inevitable to be tired, Ming Shi arrangement, during the day in batches, take turns to rest.
This toss, the sky is getting brighter.
Ye Caitang and the others went to have breakfast and returned to the Daxiong Treasure Hall.
The pheasant is not strange, but the strangest thing now is the Buddha's head that disappeared out of thin air. If you can find out how the head of the Buddha disappeared, you may be able to find new clues.
The Daxiong Treasure Hall is majestic and solemn, there is a statue of Rulai in the middle, and there are four Bodhisattvas standing next to it, Ye Caitang doesn't know any of them, but they are all quite big.
Xia Yue said: "Find it." ”
In the hall of the Great Majesty, there is all the space where things can be hidden, and this space must be quite large, not only the inside is large, but also the opening is large, so that it can be stuffed in.
But the Daxiong Treasure Hall is empty, and you can see through it at a glance.
Everyone spent the whole morning, knocking on every floor tile, every inch of the wall, and even the interior of several other Buddha statues, but they found nothing.
Ye Caitang stood by the wall and looked at the small window in the high place.
This is the only place that leads to the outside, apart from the gate.
Ye Caitang said: "Can I go up and take a look?" ”
Although Ming Shi said that the size of this window is absolutely impossible to pass a person, and it is true from below, Ye Caitang also wants to take a look, she is confident that among this group of people, she is the one who knows the secret room best.
There must be flaws, and flaws are often in places that everyone can't imagine.
