Chapter 617: The First
Jing Qingqi said: "No, it's not a relative, it's not a hometown." "The young man doesn't look like a bad person.
......
While several people were planning, Yan Saburo had already walked into the depths of the dense forest, and asked Chitose: "Which direction?"
He stood in a clearing in the middle of the forest, going up the mountain road to the left, and the stream to the right.
"Left. ”
Yan Saburo turned around when he heard this, but Chitose then said, "No, no, no, right!"
"......," Yan Saburo stood still, "I thought you had a keen sense of smell." ”
"Do you think I'm a dog?" Chitose muttered angrily, "To the right, you can't be wrong!"
Only then did Yan Saburo turn to the right and stride forward: "No. ”
"What isn't?" This guy has been getting harder and harder to understand lately, isn't she in the same dimension as his brain circuit?
I'm a cat when you're a cat. Of course, Yan Saburo didn't say this, but just switched the topic: "Hu Yong was a little injured and a little poisoned, but he didn't go back to the camp." ”
How could he let the sneak attacker easily retreat with his whole body? The money dart was fed with poison, although it was not a bloody throat, but it had a strong hallucinogenic effect, which was enough for Hu Yong to get a pot.
Yan Saburo was not in a hurry to chase after him on the spot, mainly because the only way to leave the island was to take a boat. No matter how far Hu Yong escaped, he would always have to go back to the camp.
But he didn't appear again, and Yan Saburo still had a little time, so let's take a look.
Hu Yong was wounded and bleeding, and Chitose had a way to track his whereabouts.
Under her guidance, Yan Saburo turned a few corners and gradually went to the stream again.
This is another section of the stream, very close to where Fang has just been attacked, no more than three miles at most.
A large area of grass fell in front of him, and three small trees were cut off at the waist. Yan Saburo swept over and found a person lying on the ground, with a big hole in his neck, and the blood had already flowed.
Hu Yong.
This bandit, who was extremely feared by others, actually died quietly in the dense forest of a desert island.
There were also two gray wolves munching around the corpse, and when they saw Yan Saburo suddenly appear, they both grinned and showed their canine teeth as a threat.
When the boy approached again, a gray wolf pounced on him, was punched in the nose by him, and flew upside down with a "whoosh", and couldn't get up for a long time.
The other wolf was frightened and burrowed into the forest with his tail between his legs.
Yan Saburo approached the corpse at this time, squatted down and tapped a few times on the corpse's skin: "The time of death is not more than half an hour." ”
He was only fifteen years old after the end of the year, but he had seen more dead people than ordinary people in several lifetimes combined, and he had both vision and experience.
There was also a pair of steel claws lying on the woodland, made of pure steel, and the tips of the three claws were stained with blood. When Yan Saburo saw it, he understood how Hu Yong's irregular wound came from.
He grabbed the steel claw, approached and sniffed it carefully: "The blood on this head is Hu Yong's, right?"
Chitose hummed reluctantly, who made her nose smarter than a dog, this kid always asks nasty questions!
Subsequently, Tsubame Saburo observed a series of human footprints by the stream, which were somewhat crooked.
The creek was soft and wet, and it was easy to leave footprints, and Yan Saburo could easily see that these footprints were left by Hu Yong. "After he was injured, the hallucinogenic drugs flare-up, causing him to walk incoherently. ”
Chitose said dissatisfiedly: "At that time, if you ignore those two wretches, it would be good to chase them down!"
Yan Saburo didn't answer, and turned around to open Hu Yong's clothes for inspection.
"There were no other injuries on his body, he was fatally killed by a single blow. Yan Saburo stared at the wound and frowned, "Even if the drug attacked, he was hallucinating, not unconscious, why didn't he struggle?"
Hu Yong wore a gold ring on his hand, which was identified by Yan Saburo as not a storage ring. Other than that, he was considered to have nothing to do.
Chitose was very unwilling: "Obviously, we got the first shot, who picked up the big leak!" Needless to say, Hu Yong's belongings were all picked up by the murderer. "It's a pity that it's still early after dark, otherwise I can summon Hu Yong's soul and ask for clarification. "It's only late afternoon, and she can't get out of the house, and the boat is leaving again.
Yan Saburo surveyed the surroundings for a few more moments, and then got up and walked back.
He was extremely accurate in time, and it was exactly within half an hour of the ship's boss to get to and from the camp. Ding Yunzheng's master and servant had already returned to the ship to stay, and the other passengers were still cooking in the camp, and when they saw him return, they all stood up.
Yan Saburo walked over and said in a deep voice, "Hu Yong is dead." ”
Everyone changed color, and they all looked at each other. In fact, from the moment they found out that Hu Yong had not returned for a long time, everyone had some guesses, but Yan Saburo was still shocked and speechless when he confirmed it himself.
The camp was suddenly silent, and only the campfire blew off a spark.
Jing Qing asked astringently, "How did you die?"
"The neck was torn and I lost a lot of blood. ”
The campfire that had not been added to the firewood was not as strong as it was, and Huo Fangfang subconsciously trembled: "Maybe it was the fierce beasts on the island who did it, such as bears and leopards." ”
"He had no other scars on him. Yan Saburo shook his head, "If it is a tiger wolf, its claws will leave traces during the fight. ”
Zhuang Nanjia opened his mouth, stopped talking several times, and finally asked the point: "Then, what about his Haiguo pass?"
"Not seen. ”
Everyone was silent for a while, and Dou Ya asked the boat boss who came to greet him, "Are there any other ships coming to dock here?"
"Yes, a lot. The boat boss grinned, "The island has abundant fresh water, and there are many sandy beaches, and the boats coming and going are docked from time to time. ”
Dou Ya breathed a sigh of relief: "Maybe someone else did it." As he spoke, he urged the boat boss to hurry up.
"Isn't this about to call you aboard?" the boat boss glared, but seeing that the little girl was cute, he still didn't lose his temper with her.
A quarter of an hour later, the wooden boat set sail and slowly sailed away from the island.
Everyone stood on the deck, watching the island grow smaller and smaller in view, but there was no relief in their hearts.
If the seafarers on the other ships killed Hu Yong, then it would be okay to say.
But what if the killer is on this boat?
¥¥¥¥¥
When Hu Yong died, his cabin was empty. Yan Saburo said to Zhuang Nanjia: "You can stay in a cabin alone, or go to the cabin." ”
Zhuang Nanjia was stunned, and his face was full of smiles: "Brother Yan, shall we discuss it again?"
Jing Qing "heyed": "You originally had to sleep in our cabin with a dead face, because you were afraid of Hu Yong." Now that everyone else is gone, are you still afraid of a ball?"
"That's right, but as soon as I think of how Hu Yong died, I ...... it" Zhuang Nanjia's smile was bitter and he lowered his voice, "What if his murderer is on the ship?
"Brother Yan, how about we go to the cabin together? There is a window on the top, at least it is brighter than here. He said to Yan Saburo, "Let's take care of each other, even if the murderer wants to come, we have to weigh it." ”
