Chapter 2 Outside the city of Youzhou

Six horse-drawn carriages drove slowly on Youzhou West Road. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The carriage was very large, about one and a half times the usual, and it was pulled by two horses, and it was striking when it walked on the road.

This carriage is the main tool of Nachen Yutian's patrol this time.

Although there were six carriages in total, only four of them were actually sitting on people! The remaining two were not carrying people, but carrying all the unsolved unsolved case files in the Kowloon Pavilion and the books collected by Gongsun about the local customs and customs of Youzhou.

In front of and behind the carriage, a group of guards accompanied them.

These are all the elites of the Dragon Guard carefully selected by Xuan Ye for this patrol, and they are completely obedient to Chen Yutian's arrangement for this trip.

And between the two teams of guards, Xue Tianhan, Huo Yuanji, Wu Dongtian and Tang Fengling each rode a horse and walked slowly with the carriage.

They originally set off in a carriage, but they stayed in the small carriage for several days, which made these people in the rivers and lakes, especially Huo Yuanji and Tang Fengling, who have always been active, almost suffocate to death.

Seeing that Youzhou was about to arrive, they could no longer hold back the impulse in their hearts, and each rode their horses and followed the carriage.

In this way, there is no need to be stuffed in the carriage.

"In half a day's journey, we should be able to reach Youzhou City. Wu Dongtian looked at the road ahead and said lightly.

Hearing this, Huo Yuanji's eyes suddenly lit up: "Is it finally coming? Great, I finally don't have to eat those dry foods." ”

Hearing this, the three people on the horse were suddenly a little speechless.

It's really a foodie!

The three of them looked at Huo Yuanji and slandered.

However, Huo Yuanji obviously didn't care about this at all, but turned around and looked at the carriage behind.

Inside that carriage, four people were seated.

They are, Chen Yutian, Xuan Xi, Bai Fan and Tianying.

......

"Brother Chen, this is the letter that my second uncle just sent this morning. It contains a detailed account of the murder of my cousin. Bai Fan took out an unsealed letter from his sleeve and handed it to Chen Yutian.

Chen Yutian nodded slightly, took the letter, and looked at it carefully.

As Bai Fan said, this letter recorded in detail the murder of his cousin Bai Xiuxiu.

It's just that maybe the facts of the case are not very clear, so some of the details are very vague.

Here's how it goes:

About a few days ago, Bai Fan's cousin Bai Xiuxiu and her personal maid Yu'er did not return overnight and disappeared mysteriously!

His father and his family searched outside for a night to no avail, and the next day, they reported the case to the government.

Soon after she reported the case, the government sent someone to inform them that they had found Bai Xiuxiu, but it was not her person who was found, but her body.

The body was found in the suburbs.

When she found it, Bai Xiuxiu was disheveled, and there was an obvious palm print on her neck, so it was judged that she was most likely molested by the murderer and did not obey, and was strangled to death by the murderer!

Seeing his daughter's tragic death, his father was naturally grieved.

But soon, the authorities also made a new discovery, and they found that the deceased's money bag and jewelry were not on the body, so they determined that those items were most likely taken by the murderer.

According to this, they caught the murderer in this case, Liu Jingyan!

Because Liu Jingyan had the money bag and jewelry of the deceased Bai Xiuxiu, he was identified as the murderer of the time, so under the severe torture of the government, he had to admit his guilt and admit that he had killed Bai Xiuxiu.

At this point, the case can almost be closed. But after thinking about it carefully, Bai Xiuxiu's family found that there were still many doubts in the case.

And the biggest problem is the personal maid Yu'er who disappeared with Bai Xiuxiu, and so far, she has not been found.

And the reason why he wrote the flying pigeon biography to Bai Fan was also to use his ability to find out the missing Yu'er......

After reading the letter, Chen Yutian sighed slightly.

In this way, how can we know whether the person arrested is the real murderer? ”

Bai Fan glanced at him and asked, "Brother Chen is wondering, is Liu Jingyan the real murderer of this case?"

"Under severe torture to extract confessions, if the prisoner is cowardly and does not want to suffer more flesh and skin, even if he is not the real murderer, he will say that he is the real murderer. In this way, the entire case will be solved and there will be a major deviation. ”

Chen Yutian shook his head and continued: "But whether this Liu Jingyan is really murderous or not, everything, we will not be able to confirm until we arrive in Youzhou and see your cousin's body." ”

Bai Fan and Tianying nodded at the same time,

Chen Yutian said again: "However, what your uncle said is right, the key to this case should be the missing maid!"

Bai Fan also nodded: "I think so too." If she and my cousin disappeared for the same reason that day, then she should know how my cousin died, but I'm afraid ......"

Speaking of this, Bai Fan suddenly stopped talking.

Chen Yutian smiled slightly, and said in a deep voice: "I'm afraid that she will be killed by a murderer like your cousin, right?"

Bai Fan was silent, this possibility is not low, after all, they disappeared at the same time, even if they were really killed by a murderer at the same time, it was not impossible.

"However, have you ever thought that if they were really killed by the same person at the same time, there is no reason why Liu Jingyan confessed to the crime of killing your cousin and concealed the crime of killing the maid. After all, no matter how many people you kill, you can't escape the crime of murder. ”

Chen Yutian suddenly smiled.

When Bai Fan heard this, his eyes suddenly flashed, and he said, "What do you mean...... So Liu Jingyan is not the real murderer?"

Chen Yutian shook his head and said, "I said, whether Liu Jingyan is the real murderer or not, you can only be sure after seeing the corpse." ”

"Then what do you mean?" Bai Fan asked with some confusion.

The corners of Chen Yutian's mouth rose slightly, and he smiled: "I mean...... Yu'er shouldn't be dead yet, but she's simply missing. ”

"Oh?" Bai Fan raised his eyebrows, and just wanted to ask the specific reason, when suddenly the carriage stopped.

The four people in the car immediately glanced at each other.

"What happened, why did it stop all of a sudden?"

Chen Yutian lifted the curtain of the car, and was going to ask Xue Tianhan, who was traveling with the carriage but riding a horse, but at the moment when he lifted the curtain, he found that Xue Tianhan was looking at the side of the road blankly, with a solemn expression.

Seeing this scene, Chen Yutian suddenly realized something.

He got out of the car as fast as he could, walked to the side of the ancient road, and looked in the direction that the snow was cold.

This look suddenly made his pupils suddenly constrict!

I saw a corpse in the weeds beside the road!

A pale young corpse!
