Chapter 23 The Man of Accidents

Chen Yutian's face changed suddenly. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

He thought of the worst-case scenario.

But it's also the most likely scenario.

"Could it be that these two officials are the ones who really escorted Quanxing into Beijing?"

He looked at the corpse on the ground, looked at Xue Tianhan, and said in disbelief.

Hearing this, everyone around was taken aback.

"You say that these two people are the ones who actually escorted Quanxing into Beijing? This is unlikely! Moreover, if they are the ones who really escorted Quanxing, then who were the people who were killed in the inn with Quanxing?"

Xing Enming squinted his eyes and groaned slightly for a moment, then spoke.

Chen Yutian also knew that such a speculation was a little unbelievable, but since Xue Tianhan had doubts about it, then it must have its truth.

So, he glanced at Xue Tianhan.

Xue Tianhan approached the two corpses that were carried out, raised their hands, and said, "Please take a closer look at the hands of these two people." ”

Hearing this, everyone's eyes widened and they carefully and seriously looked at the hands of the two corpses.

"Nothing special except for some calluses on it!"

Xing Enming and Zhou Lin stared at their hands for a long time, and then looked at Xue Tianhan a little inexplicably and spoke.

"That's right!"

Xue Tianhan nodded, "It is these calluses that show that they are likely to be the official messengers who escorted Quanxing." ”

"Oh?" the crowd was confused.

Xue Tianhan then explained: "These calluses are sharpened by the use of swords and killing sticks by officials and officials all year round, and almost every government official will have them. ”

As he spoke, he walked over to a catcher, took his right hand, and showed it to everyone.

Everyone saw that the pair of large hands, which were obviously rough and the color of tree trunks, were indeed covered with the same wrinkles as the deceased.

Then, Xue Tianhan showed everyone another fast catcher.

This hand, like the previous one, had calluses that were identical to those of the deceased.

Xue Tianhan showed everyone a lot of hands of the fast arresting officer, and these hands were all the same as the deceased without exception.

So, everyone affirmed.

This may also be regarded as a sign of the poor officials of the yamen.

However, what does this have to do with whether they are the official messengers who escorted Quanxing?

The crowd was still a little confused.

I only heard Xue Tianhan say again: "You should still remember, right? When we were at the inn just now, Gongsun showed us the hands of the two charred corpses wearing fast-catching costumes?"

Hearing this, everyone thought about it for a while.

Indeed, Gongsun did show everyone the hands of the two dead before.

Thinking about it, Chen Yutian and Ling Miaoyin's eyes suddenly flashed!

"I see!" said in unison.

Huo Yuanji immediately looked at the two of them.

He hadn't seen the two charred corpses before, so he didn't know what the mystery of the hands of the two charred corpses was.

"You ...... Got what?"

At this moment, Xuan Xi, Wu Dongtian, Tang Fengling, and Lin Dao also moved, and their eyes bloomed with shining essence!

"I see! I almost missed such an obvious flaw!"

Huo Yuanji was even more curious.

After all, he hadn't seen those two charred corpses before, and he didn't know what the mystery of their hands was.

At this time, Xing Enming suddenly smiled.

"That's right!"

He looked at the two corpses on the ground and smiled bitterly: "I almost ignored such an important discovery!"

Chen Yutian looked at him and said with a smile: "Uncle Xing also found out!"

Xing Enming smiled and waved his hand: "Hehe...... Old, really old, I almost ignored such a simple flaw, I really can't compare with you young people. ”

They were talking about unnutritious things here, and Bai Luo and Zhou Lin on the side couldn't sit still.

Huo Yuanji had never seen a corpse, and it was understandable that he couldn't find that simple flaw.

But the two of them, who had seen the two charred corpses with everyone, now almost all of them found out that something was wrong, but the two of them were still confused.

This, for the two, is undoubtedly a bit humiliating.

But Huo Yuanji had never seen it, so naturally he wouldn't feel ashamed.

So he asked very directly, "What flaws have you found?"

Everyone looked at each other in unison, and said in unison: "It's calluses!"

"Calluses?" Huo Yuanji was puzzled.

"Yes, the charred corpses we found in the inn in the clothes of the Swift Catcher have no calluses on their hands. ”

Xuan Xi nodded affirmatively and replied.

Huo Yuanji asked, "But, aren't those scorched corpses?"

Xuan Xi nodded, "Yes!"

"Now that the bodies are charred, how can you see if they have calluses on their hands?"

Huo Yuanji asked again.

After hearing this, Xuan Xi was suddenly a little speechless.

"Because their hands weren't completely scorched, of course!

And, most importantly, although they also have calluses on their hands, they are not in the tiger's mouth or palm. ”

Hearing this, Huo Yuanji immediately understood.

"So, the one who was killed in the inn was a fake catcher?"

Bai Luo stepped forward and asked.

"Could they be the murderers who killed these two?"

"I don't think so. As he finished speaking, he heard a voice suddenly say so.

Everyone followed the voice, and when they saw the person who spoke, the expression on their faces suddenly froze.

Because, the person who spoke was not the Chen Yutian that everyone imagined.

It's someone that no one can think of!

......

It was midday.

The blazing light shone down from the sky, scorching a face that appeared in front of everyone.

So much so that a little bead of sweat leaked from his forehead.

This face is as handsome as Xue Tianhan and Huo Yuanji, and it is a little more elegant than them.

It's the middle of winter, so the person in front of me is wearing a thick white coat.

This, not only does not reduce its own elegance in the slightest, but also sets it off more handsome.

And now, this person stood in front of everyone, arched his hand at everyone, and said with a smile: "Brother Chen, Brother Bai, Her Royal Highness the Princess, Miss Tang, we meet again! Why don't you see Mr. Gongsun?"

He smiled, but he was even more surprised by the names of the few people he named!

"Brother Bai, why are you here?"

Surprised for a long time, Chen Yutian was the first to come back to his senses, looked at the person in front of him, smiled slightly, and there was a strong sense of surprise in his eyes.

Yes.

The person in front of him is Bai Fan!

However, he is the prefectural magistrate of Baeksan, how can he appear near Gyeonggi Province?

Bai Fan also smiled and explained: "I originally planned to enter Beijing, but when I saw so many people gathered here, I came over to take a look, but I didn't expect to see you investigating the case here." ”

"I see!"

Chen Yutian nodded.

"However, you don't know the facts of the case, how dare you say that those two people are not the murderers who killed these two officials?" Bai Luo asked.

Hearing this, Bai Fan smiled and said, "I really don't know much about the facts of this case, but I also heard from you on the side that those two people who pretended to be fast hunters seem to have been blown up, right?"

Bai Luo nodded: "Yes." ”

"That's why I think it's impossible for them. Bai Fan smiled as a matter of course.

"Uh......" Everyone was puzzled.

"Do you think...... Two people who killed the catcher and pretended to be them will take the initiative to blow themselves up?"

Bai Fan smiled slightly.
