Zhou Lin knew what the adults were worried about. While peeling the shrimp shells for the adults, Zhou Lin said: "Let's check all the villagers in that area. It is very likely that there is Jiang Xiuhua's lover among them."
Zhou Lin's understanding is simple: a person who cannot bear loneliness will not have only one lover. Just like... Wei Zhi. After you do something bad, you will keep doing it and think about ending it.
He won't stop until the last moment.
These words reminded Di Ying.
He came back to his senses, praised Zhou Lin with a smile and said, "What a great idea!"
If there are no clues in a case, then there is only one last stupid solution left: cast the net wide and catch the fish narrowly.
Like a big wave crashing into the sand.
But... the fishing net has eyes, and the sieve also has holes.
That night, Di Ying had a dream all night and had an extremely restless sleep. There seemed to be some kind of drumbeat that kept beating in the dream, beating very quickly.
He was so anxious that he didn't know what to do. I just left the "cake" on the bed all night.
Before dawn, he got up. After a brief wash, he only asked Peng Liang to buy food, and then rode on the dark clouds.
While walking and eating, we headed towards the fishing village.
Wuyun has been with him for more than ten years and has grown old, but they are still dependent on each other and never separate wherever they go. Di Ying rarely rides Wuyun now, and usually rides a carriage.
But that fishing village was built on a rugged ground with mountain peaks, so it would be difficult for a horse-drawn carriage to move there.
And if he wanted to ride another horse, Wu Yun would not be willing.
Not only will it kick and hammer the opponent, it will even bite it with its teeth until the opponent flees or Di Ying dismounts.
Di Ying was particularly able to understand Wu Yun's emotions. So I still ride it occasionally.
Not only humans want to be needed, but animals do the same.
Whenever people grow old or animals grow old and weak, this feeling of being needed will become stronger.
Neither he nor she nor they wanted to lie there quietly waiting to die. That feeling... was very excruciating.
Di Ying hoped that he could fight until the last moment, and he knew Wu Yun wanted to do the same.
Therefore, even though he is already thirty-two years old and is already in September of the eighteenth year of the Great Xia calendar, he still wants to.
The dark cloud followed him when he was two years old, and he is now sixteen years old.
wrong……
Di Ying found that he had a brain twitch, and he gave Wu Yun the age of a dog...
Dare to be emotional for a long time, it turns out that Wu Yun is only sixteen years old, in his prime...
It's because Di Ying's state of mind is old, too old. He thinks that time has passed for a long time, that he is always facing the sunset and that everything around him is getting older...
Di Ying grinned silently, lay down, hugged Wu Yun's neck, and rubbed hard.
The dark clouds are inexplicable.
However, it also sensed its owner's joy and cried out happily.
But even if the dark clouds are strong, one person and one horse are in a good mood, and the speed is good, it is still a step too late.
Among the scattered fishermen, another family died.
It's Jiang Xiuhua's old lover, Wu Kangsheng.
When Di Ying and others arrived, they first asked about Wu Kangsheng's residence, then pushed the door open and went in, where they saw the person lying upside down in the middle of the hall.
Wu Kangsheng was killed with a knife in the chest. There was no resistance to injury. It was obvious that he knew the person who killed him.
When the other party came to the door, Wu Kangsheng opened the door for him and let him into the house. Then before he took two steps, when he turned around, he was stabbed to death by the other party.
One knife.
Dagger marks.
It's the kind that kills and disembowels fish at the beach, stabbed to death with a dagger-like knife that kills fish.
You can even smell a faint fishy smell from the scar, mixed with the smell of blood.
Di Ying even dug out tiny shrimps from the wound.
Explanation: The murderer may have randomly picked up a fish-killing knife and came here. It is estimated that the other hand is also holding fish and shrimps.
Because there is still a slight, circular indentation on the ground from the bottom of the clay pot.
Therefore, Wu Kangsheng was unprepared.
The picture that appeared in Di Ying's mind was this: Wu Kangsheng, who was already asleep when he heard the knock on the door, asked: "Who is it?"
The other party replied: "I came to you to have a drink. Look, here are some fresh fish and shrimps that I caught. I was busy coming here and haven't even processed them yet. You can also help me clean them up, and I'll do a few more later." Wine and food.”
As he spoke, he might even raise the wine can, fish bag, etc. he was carrying towards the room.
Wu Kangsheng got up and opened the door. Because Wu Kangsheng was only wearing his middle coat.
Because of the familiarity, he opened the door and let the other person come in, while he walked towards the front of the main room. You may also say: "I'll go find a basin and we can clean it up together."
At this time, the other party was behind him, put down the wine can and fish bag, and then quietly and quickly walked over with the fish-killing knife in his hand.
Perhaps, he shouted something.
Wu Kangsheng turned around and was stabbed completely defenseless.
Di Ying reconstructed this scene in his mind based on the traces found at the scene.
He shook his head and began to conduct a preliminary autopsy.
Peng Liang and the other three started on-site inspection again.
I found two women's dresses and a pink bellyband embroidered with mandarin ducks.
It's not unusual to have mandarin ducks embroidered on it, and the pink color... seems a little too tender for someone of Jiang Xiuhua's age.
However, Di Ying could understand when she remembered that the sleeveless short coat that was blown to the ground from the clothes rack in front of Jiang Xiuhua's door was also pink.
Six taels of broken silver and more than a hundred copper plates were also found from Wu Kangsheng's home.
The murderer did not go through the scene, nor did he clean up the traces. He did not even blow out the candles. He left after killing the people and even left traces of blood and straw sandals.
But the footprints didn't go very far and were mixed with the straw shoe prints and sea sand on the ground.
In the evening, there were also people returning from the sea.
Wu Kangsheng's death time was at the end of Choushi and at half past Yinshi. (02:00-04:00)
The footprints left by the murderer have been trampled and cannot be traced.
All this shows that the murderer has a very strong purpose. He came with murderous intent. Hit and go without missing a moment.
And based on the direction of the footprints that can be traced... the murderer may have gone straight to the town after killing the people.
The wine cans and fish bags were also carried away.
The murderer is... trying to escape!
Di Ying urgently ordered Peng Liang to chase him along the route to the town. He guessed: The murderer was wearing a bloody suit, so he would have changed his clothes halfway and discarded the bloody suit and the like. It could also include the murder weapon.
If we can find those, it means that the murderer really went in that direction and really planned to escape.
Of course, Di Ying also told Peng Liang the data about the murderer that he had deduced based on the footprints left by the murderer, so that it would be easier to pursue him.
Peng Liang could directly stop and interrogate people who were rushing along in a hurry early in the morning. If they fit that height, weight and age.
If the murderer stays in a small town for the night, he can also check out an inn or something.
This time, Di Ying and the others arrived quickly and responded quickly, and the murderer was found.
Unfortunately, all Peng Liang brought back was a corpse.
