Until we reached the edge of the cliff.
Di Ying saw some footprints with their backs and sides facing the cliff.
Still the footprints of a child.
So much time has passed, and the marks are very light.
If it weren't for Di Ying's good eyesight and experience, he really wouldn't have been able to detect it.
But also because apparently no one has come to this area again, so it was left behind.
On the edge of the cliff, on the side of the footprints, there is a relatively fresh trace of broken stone.
It looked like this: The boy stepped on it and accidentally stepped on a piece of it, and then fell down with the broken stone.
After that, Di Ying let Peng Liang take him and climbed down the cliff.
Sure enough, we also found traces of someone falling from above, then tumbling and falling.
Now it can be confirmed with a high probability that the place where the boy fell to death is right here.
But who will be chasing him?
Why is he being chased at such a young age? So that he lost his footing and fell?
There are still traces of blood on some rocks here. Some are more, some are less.
More, it should be where the boy's head hit.
only……
At this time, Di Ying discovered something slightly different on a stone.
Those are actually two rocks next to each other.
In the gap between them, there were some traces that didn't look like blood stains.
And it was still relatively far away from the spot with the most blood, which was where the boy's head was hit by the rock. It's about five or six meters tall.
That is, it is relatively far away from the trace where the boy fell.
Di Ying stepped forward and touched the spot-like mark.
The reason why this patch caught his attention is that there seemed to be a little more ants near here.
As we all know: ants can find their way home based on the unique smell they leave behind when they leave their nests.
They are busy running around looking for food every day.
They are so small and often run far away from home.
What should I do when I want to come back? Just go back the way you came.
Even if it makes five circles in a certain place when you go there, when you come back, it will still make five circles in that position.
This is a good way for them to cope with the huge world, the small field of vision, and survive.
Although this looks quite stupid in human eyes.
But this is one of the special skills of the little ants.
If there is a place where they can get food for a long period of time, then they will often visit it.
Even this piece of food has been emptied by them long ago, and they will often pass by here.
Because there is a scent that they can recognize.
So Di Ying had reason to judge: there must have been a piece of food there that could attract ants. The reason why it was far away was that it was probably thrown from the boy's hand.
It's actually very simple to think of this.
After all: children. It’s not strange to have something on your body or hands to eat, right?
And what exactly is this piece of food?
As long as we can identify it, we have the greatest chance of finding the place where the boy lived and his home.
The boy's skull has been restored. Since the neighbors near Ma Ling'er's house don't know the boy, they all say that no boy has ever been lost in their respective homes.
Then, based on where the boy's bones are buried and looking in the opposite direction, you can most likely find the place where the boy was killed. Likewise, traces found at the scene can lead Di Ying to the boy's home.
The good news is: this piece of food should be a candy man.
Sugar is not something that ordinary people can afford to eat at will. Even rich people can't always eat it on weekdays.
So what attracts children the most is the beautiful candy figures on the street.
The people who make the candy figures are very skillful in their craftsmanship. They can dilute the orange-red sugar, draw thin threads, and pour out all kinds of small animals.
Some of the more exquisite ones can even look like candy buyers.
There are no candy sellers in Youqu Town.
But this is also the intended meaning of the question.
In most small towns in the country, there are no candy sellers. This kind of thing can only be found in lively cities and towns with many rich and noble people.
Di Ying stood on the stone and looked to the southwest.
Not far further, you can enter Huazhou City.
When he looked over there, he felt that the city seemed like a huge beast's mouth that was open, waiting for him to enter.
Want to go?
Do you still need to ask?
…
At this time, in Huazhou City.
Li Yuanjia was asking his son Li Zhuan: "Can Li Zhen believe the secret letter you forged?"
Li Zhuan is making the "Edict on Clothes and Belts". Hearing this, he stopped what he was doing, looked up at his father, then pointed to the belt on his hand and said, "If you don't believe it, there's this.
However, we should believe it, otherwise, we would not be able to respond to our requests. The number of weapons sent by his son is increasing. "
Hearing this, Li Yuanjia stroked his long beard under his chin with satisfaction.
However, this look of satisfaction did not last long before it turned into a bit of depression.
"That Di Ying somehow ended up on our border in Huazhou. He is obviously the governor of Yuzhou, why didn't he just stay in Yuzhou and come to Huazhou? What are you doing here? Is it just that? To deal with Wang Hongmin?
Zhuan'er, tell me, will Wang Hongmin confess anything? "
Li Zhuan heard his father mention Di Ying, and when he was about to move his hand, he had to stop again.
He shook his head and replied: "No. Wang Hongmin was interrogated by Zhai Hengyang for half a year and never uttered a word. We only use him because he has a tight mouth.
Even if he dares not to worry, he still has to think about the people of his clan. Moreover, the person who came back to report the news said that Di Ying did not find out that Wang Hongmin had anything to do with us. After hearing Wang Hongmin's case, Di Ying left with his people.
Di Ying is a person who values reputation. When he was examining cases, he was used to having people watch. Our people heard the whole process of his trial. I didn't hear Di Ying mention a single digression that had nothing to do with those cases.
I believe that no matter how smart Di Ying is, as long as it has nothing to do with the case, he will not think that Wang Hong is related to us. Even if he thought of it wildly, as long as he didn't ask, it meant that he didn't want to know.
Knowing this, he got involved and couldn't get away from it anymore.
Furthermore, father, I also thought: maybe the reason why Di Ying left Yuzhou was because he didn't want to get involved in our important affairs, right? After all, if Li Zhen gets into trouble and Di Ying doesn't cooperate, Li Zhen will have to take down Di Ying before the very beginning.
Just like us...
We must also get rid of the person who has been secretly watching us first. "
