Chapter 2: Clues
"Survey the scene carefully and confirm that you don't miss any clues, and..."
Li Xiuran pondered, and while speaking, he glanced at the crowd who was watching curiously outside the blockade line, and ordered Wu Songshan: "Take people to ask the onlookers to see if there are any witnesses, and what clues can be provided."
"yes."
Wu Songshan bowed his order and took the man out of the blockade line.
Li Xiuran and Luo Dazhuang re-surveyed the scene. From the body, to the surroundings, and even on the corners of the street, they carefully passed by with torches. Finally, they confirmed that there was no clue...
Both guards were killed in one blow, and the young governor was abducted again. The scene was clean and the murderer was really left without anything.
Li Xiuran, who was originally thinking of extracting some clues from the scene, felt a little cold.
Wu Songshan also questioned the crowd and took the two of them back: "Boss, I have asked them all. Only these two witnesses reported the case just now. Everyone else came to join in the fun and didn't know anything."
Li Xiuran glanced at the two of them, one was a middle-aged woman, and the other was a slightly younger Ding Zhuang.
Li Xiuran was too lazy to talk to the two of them and asked directly: "Did you see the incident? Do you see the appearance of the murderer clearly?"
"No, no, it's too dark. The murderer was wearing black clothes again, and seemed to have his face covered. I didn't see clearly." The young Ding Zhuang said in a nervous tone.
Li Xiuran turned his head and looked at the middle-aged woman.
"I, neither. I just heard the scream and came over and saw it. I only saw a back, but didn't see the face." The woman looked nervous.
What's the difference between you and not seeing it?
Li Xiuran was disappointed, and the rest of his heart was also cold. He waved his hand and said, "Okay, it's okay, you two can go back."
The two of them left as if they were granted a general amnesty and fled.
Li Xiuran rubbed his eyebrows and felt a big head.
There was no clue, but the deceased was still the governor's guard, and the missing one was the governor's young master.
A second-rank official of the court came to inspect the court this time and enjoyed the right to make arbitrary decisions. The prefect can be executed first and then reported. If the case cannot be solved and the son has something to do, he will know if he will go crazy.
The prefect doesn't have to worry about losing his head, but he, the little captain, may be.
Even if you don’t die, you will definitely be punished with a heavy punishment!
Therefore, no matter how difficult the case is, he has to work hard to solve it!
And the case must be investigated within three days.
But... now there is no useful clue, where should he start?
Start with the motivation?
Both guards were killed by one blow, and the young governor was kidnapped. He took action so decisively and had clear goals. It was obvious that it was not the demon who was committing random crimes for the sake of cultivation, but the murderer's target was the three of them.
Why did the murderer attack the three of them?
Revenge?
The governor and his party had just arrived in Qingyun in the afternoon. It was the first time they came here, so there should be no enemy in the local area.
This is not his first stop for inspection. Before that, he had inspected Dongping and Guangyang prefectures one after another.
If the murderer was from another place, he had the opportunity to take action before, so why did he have to wait until now?
It was not until Qingyun took action that the target he wanted to revenge was the governor Lin Yanjiang or the prefect Liang Qiuhe?
Well... don't say it, this is also a clue!
Li Xiuran's eyes lit up and he felt that he had found another direction to track down.
But then shook his head again, feeling that it was unlikely.
If the murderer wants to kill someone with a knife, there is no need to offend a second-rank official Lin Yanjiang in order to kill a fourth-rank prefect Liang Qiuhe. It is obviously not worth the loss.
And more importantly, the knife he borrowed could not kill Liang Qiuhe.
The prefect is not among Lin Yanjiang's first and then report. At most, he will wear small shoes for him afterwards and cut off his career.
The murderer was so powerful that he could offend a second-rank official. He couldn't just do anything to make Liang Qiuhe's official?
If it weren't for revenge, what else could the murderer's motive be?
For money?
I have asked Qin Haofeng just now that the cultivation of the two guards is in the Shenzang Realm. The murderer can make the two of them have no power to resist and kill them all with one blow. Their strength is obviously above the two, and at least they must be in the Sun Spirit Realm.
Even if this level of cultivation is placed in the entire empire, it can be considered a master of one side. Will he be short of money?
Moreover, he had just carefully examined the corpse, and the two guards had their pockets and their weapons were not lost. You should know that the cultivation level of the Shenzang Realm is no longer low, and both of them are not cheap, and they can be worth at least a little money.
But the murderer turned a blind eye, which means he was obviously not for money.
Revenge or wealth is not just for sex, it can’t be for sex, right?
Are demons so cruel now?
Or...When Lin Fengkai was just out for a trip, he accidentally caught something, so he suddenly caused himself to kill him?
If this is the case, it means that the murderer should have had contact with Lin Fengkai. Now, as long as you figure out where Lin Fengkai has been and who he has met, the case should be able to make a breakthrough!
Li Xiuran's eyes lit up instantly and frowned slightly. The two guards who accompanied Lin Fengkai out all died, and he himself disappeared. Now he wanted to know where he had been, and no one could ask about it.
But it doesn't matter, no one can ask, so let's calculate it yourself.
The governor and his group had just arrived at Qingyun Mansion in the afternoon and were all staying in the Inspectorate.
I just asked Qin Haofeng, Lin Fengkai and the other two went out after dinner, and the accident was on this street. During this period, from the Inspectorate to this street, the route he might have taken and the places he has been to...
Li Xiuran closed his eyes, and the topographic map of the mansion suddenly appeared in his mind. As a captain, his daily work is to investigate and collect evidence and arrest criminals, and patrol the streets and alleys.
After traveling through for more than three months, he had already known the terrain of the city. After thinking about it, the few routes that Lin Fengkai might have taken quickly took took in his mind.
Li Xiuran suddenly opened his eyes and waited aside with a frown. Seeing that he was thinking about Luo Dazhuang and others who did not dare to disturb him, he ordered in a deep voice:
"Send a few people to send the body back to the government office and keep it safe.
Others, come with me!"
"Boss, have you thought of a way to solve the case?" Wu Songshan was stunned, and then said in surprise.
"If you have a direction, you have to investigate whether the case can be solved. "Li Xiuran said lightly, raised his eyes and swept to the intersection, locked the route selected in his mind, and took a step directly without hesitation.
"What direction, boss?"
"How do we check?"
Wu Songshan, Luo Dazhuang and others hurriedly followed and asked while walking.
"Investigate and visit!" Li Xiuran said casually.
If his idea is correct, Lin Fengkai accidentally encountered something because he had contacted the murderer, and then he caused a murderous disaster to himself. The murderer must be among these people.
