After Xing Enming heard Xue Tianhan's words, although he didn't know what they meant, he still nodded in agreement.
We'll see the result in three days, right?
Three days later is the emperor's deadline. No matter whether he can get the murderer or not, he will have a result.
Of course, he didn't know whether Xue Tianhan's words "three days later" meant this.
Several people walked around the scene a few more times, eliminating previous discoveries and finding new clues.
Xing Enming is also used to this kind of situation.
At that moment, he ordered the government officials to seal the scene, and he left with Chen Yutian and others.
The group came to the poplar tree where the suspected murderer lit the fire.
The tree is close to a three-story attic, and almost the entire tree is shrouded in the shadow of the attic.
When Fang arrived under the tree, Chen Yutian's eyes flashed!
I saw a few dry branches scattered on the ground under this tree.
He slowly knelt down and picked up the branch. After examining it carefully, he smiled slightly.
Seeing this, everyone knew that he had discovered something, so they asked, "What did you discover again?"
Chen Yutian raised the branch in his hand and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
"This branch just fell from the tree."
Hearing this, Bai Luoqi said: "Palace Master, why do you see this?"
"Look, there is a little moisture on the branches. Right?"
"Not bad!" Everyone nodded.
Chen Yutian said: "It just snowed a few days ago. Although the snow on the ground has almost melted completely, this tree is different. Since it has been under the shadow of the attic for a long time, the snow here has melted more. Slow down, there is usually moisture on the branches.”
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but look up.
I saw that there were still traces of snow remaining on many branches of the poplar tree, which looked extremely crystal clear in the sunlight.
indeed so!
Everyone nodded slightly.
Soon everyone understood why Chen Yutian smiled so happily when he saw these branches.
The branch cannot fall to the ground on its own.
The most likely reason why there were branches falling here was that someone was standing on the tree at that time and broke the branches, so they fell to the ground.
This also shows that this is indeed the place where the murderer shot the rocket and set it on fire.
"The snow here has not completely melted, and there may be footprints of the murderer. Everyone, look carefully."
With that said, Chen Yutian mobilized everyone to start looking for footprints around the tree.
After a while, Xue Tianhan made a discovery.
When everyone gathered there, they saw a shoe print clearly left on a piece of land not far from the tree where the snow had not completely melted.
Since the snow has now turned into half ice and half water, the shoe print is even clearer.
Chen Yutian looked at the shoe print carefully and then spoke.
"This person is about seven feet tall and weighs about a hundred pounds. He is a male with an average build. He is neither fat nor thin. He has a pretty good physique..."
Upon hearing this, Xing Enming immediately ordered Zhou Lin to write it down.
He also ordered the attendants and government officials to cut out the shoe print.
Seeing this, Xuan Xi was speechless.
Immediately, she frowned and said, "Men like this are almost everywhere in the streets of Xuandu City. It's not easy to find, right?"
Chen Yutian nodded: "That's true. But it's still a clue, and we can't give up tracking it."
Hearing this, Xing Enming nodded immediately.
He got unprecedented clues about the murderer, and he was in an unusually good mood at this time.
Chen Yutian was also very happy at this time, because in addition to this clue, they should have another important clue in Bai Luo's hands.
So, Chen Yutian looked at Bai Luo and said, "Commander Bai, now we can continue the unfinished conversation."
Bai Luo was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay."
Chen Yutian asked: "You just said that there was someone you didn't know who secretly visited the crime scene after Xiao Sheng's death. What did that person look like?"
Xing Enming was stunned when he heard the conversation between them.
Hasn't Xiao Sheng's case been solved?
Why is Yutian still asking questions related to this case? And the question is still about Bai Luo?
With questions in his mind, he continued to listen.
Bai Luo said: "I remember it was the evening of the fourth day after the incident. I went to the scene of the crime because I missed Xiao Sheng. As a result, as soon as I got there, I saw a person walking away from the scene. come out……"
He painted a picture of the time to everyone...
…
dusk.
A figure sneaked out from the main entrance of Taoyuan Inn.
When Bai Luo saw this, he shouted loudly: "Who is it? How can we allow you to come and go at will at the murder scene?"
He pulled out the knife from his waist, stepped forward, and came to the person.
After walking in, he found that it was a man in his thirties.
This man had a white face and beardless face, bright eyebrows, and was carrying a cloth bag. Hearing Bai Luo's voice, instead of running away directly, he turned around and looked at him without any scruples.
Bai Luo looked at this person and suddenly had an illusion.
It seemed that the person in front of him was somewhat similar to his friend Xiao Sheng, who had just suffered a misfortune.
However, this person is slightly older than Xiao Sheng.
"Who are you? How can you enter and exit the murder scene wantonly?"
Bai Luo waved the knife in his hand and asked.
The man said nothing.
"I ask you again, who are you?" Bai Luo asked again.
The man finally spoke.
But he did not answer Bai Luo's question, but asked: "Bai Luo?"
Bai Luo nodded: "It's me."
"My friend died unexpectedly. Instead of arresting the murderer, you came to ask me who I am. What's the point of this?"
The man scoffed.
Hearing this, Bai Luo was shocked.
Who is this person?
He actually knew that he and Xiao Sheng were friends?
"Who are you?" he asked again.
But the man didn't answer his question again.
He looked at Bai Luo and said with a smile: "You make such confused friends? It seems you make friends carelessly!"
Naturally, this sentence was not meant for Bai Luo.
To Bai Luo, this should be what he said to the dead Xiao Sheng. But, who is this person?
"Brother Xiao's case has been solved, and the murderer has been arrested. Which kind of murderer do you want me to arrest?" Bai Luo said.
Hearing this, the person opposite suddenly laughed.
"Haha... the murderer has been arrested? Are you kidding me? The person you took is not the murderer at all!"
Bai Luo was shocked when he heard this.
"What are you talking about? According to the pre-death message that Brother Xiao left at the scene, the murderer is undoubtedly that person."
Hearing this, the man laughed even harder.
"Hmph... a pre-death message? You have the nerve to mention a pre-death message? That information is simply wrong, but you bunch of dog officials know nothing about it!"
