Daxuanti criminal officer

Chapter 96
in the inn.

Zhao Yu opened his eyes with a slam, bloodshot eyes.

It was too late last night to follow the blind girl, and he almost didn't close his eyes all night. Seeing that he was too tired, Xu Zun asked him to go back to the inn to catch up on sleep.

However, Zhao Yu lay on the bed and did not fall asleep, but opened his eyes abruptly when he heard something.

He didn't go to get the saber, but turned over quietly, went to the door of the opposite room, and put his ear on the door to listen.

Xiwa's immature voice came from inside the room:
"Dad, can you buy a wig tomorrow? I also want something for makeup..."

"Oops," Liu Dong seemed to be eating something, and said impatiently while chewing, "Master Xu has explained, let me take good care of you two, and you are not allowed to leave the inn for half a step.

"Xiwa, I know you want your mother to be more beautiful, but now is really not the time."

"Oh..." Xiwa was very disappointed. After a moment of silence, she asked again, "Father, what did my mother do before? Why did she suffer such ugly injuries?"

"This...you are still too young, I will tell you slowly when you grow up," Liu Dong said, "You just need to remember that the world is dangerous, and don't trust anyone's words except me, otherwise, It will become like your mother!"

"Oh..." Xiwa agreed, but her young heart couldn't fully understand Liu Dong's meaning, so she asked curiously, "Tell me, will my mother be okay?"

"Yes, yes," Liu Dong comforted, "Isn't Master Xu treating her? When your mother is well, let's dress her up beautifully together, how about it?"

"Okay, okay..." Xiwa clapped her hands happily...

Listening to the conversation in the room, Zhao Yu slowly withdrew his ear against the door, and there was a glint of uncertainty in his eyes...

……

The Arhat Temple is located in the south corner of Shangyuan City. Like most temples, the incense has been cut off a long time ago, and it has become a veritable ruined temple.

Most of the statues of Arhats in the temple had their heads cut off, making them look even more dilapidated.

"It's broken, it's broken..."

Looking at the sutures on the abdomen of the corpse, Ju Ran felt dizzy.

This suture line is not only the same as the body found in the Huguo Temple, but also highly consistent with the case of the monk's corpse.

Xu Zun carefully inspected the sutured wound, only a little blood streak appeared at the bottom of the wound, and there was no blood stain on other places.

This method... so professional!
Xu Zun was secretly shocked. According to common sense, the murderer cut open the chest of the deceased and messed with the internal organs. It is impossible for the murderer not to cause the deceased to bleed profusely.

But the wound did not show a lot of bleeding marks, which is enough to show that the murderer used some kind of hemostasis method for the deceased.

so perverted...

Xu Zun frowned and observed the female corpse carefully.

Since the corpse was discovered earlier, it was more clearly seen than the female corpse in Huguo Temple last time.

However, the deceased was a woman in her 20s, with an ordinary appearance and no cosmetics such as rouge.

Like the previous female corpse, she is wearing a gray monk robe, with a string of rosary beads hanging around her neck, and she is sitting cross-legged under the Buddha statue with her palms folded, as if she is meditating.

What made Xu Zun even more creepy was that this woman had a serene face and her eyes were slightly closed. If she hadn't seen the horrific wound on her stomach, it was almost impossible to tell whether she was dead or not!

call……

Xu Zun suppressed the excitement in his heart, leaned close to the corpse and smelled it, unexpectedly, this woman also had a special smell of sandalwood.

This smell seems to be the same as the scent on the female corpse last time.

"Xu Zun, Xu Zun..."

While Xu Zun was examining the body, a person rushed in from outside the temple.

In Shangyuan City, there is only one person who directly calls Xu Zun by his first name, and that is Jingwu Captain Shen Xinglian.

"There are soldiers in our battalion who recognize this woman," Shen Xinglian said to Xu Zun, "She is the wife of one of our corporal leaders!"

Corporal Chief, also called Wu Zheng, was a position in the barracks. It didn't sound very loud, but his status was not low. He was in charge of three or four hundred soldiers.

"Oh?" Xu Zun asked, "Where is the chief?"

"Called, on the way, um..." Shen Xinglian lowered his voice and said to Xu Zun with a difficult expression, "According to the soldiers, the wife of this corporal leader is already pregnant..."

what?
Xu Zun's heart was shocked, he didn't expect that there would be one dead body and two lives, this killer in monk clothes is really vicious, it's really outrageous.

"Let me in, let me in..."

At this time, Lu Mingyue's voice came from outside the door.

Due to the urgency of the case, Lu Mingyue also came to Luohan Temple, but Xu Zun did not let her enter the scene of the crime.

"Miss," Wei Beihui's dissuading voice came from outside the door again, "this is the scene of the crime, the lady is of high status, you must not go in, if you are frightened, the poor can't afford it!"

"Yes," Huo Anu also persuaded, "Don't interfere with the investigation of the adults!"

"Let me go in!" Lu Mingyue said, "I'll just go in and take a look. As long as it's not Xiaofeng, I'm relieved!"

"Miss," Wei Bei replied, "Pindao also recognizes Miss Xiaofeng, let him go in and have a look!"

Xu Zun heard their discussion, so he walked out of the temple and said to Lu Mingyue:
"Don't worry, it's not Miss Lu Xiaofeng, the identity of the corpse has already been revealed!"

"Oh?" Seeing Xu Zun, Lu Mingyue rushed forward and asked, "Who is that? Brother Xu, I just heard someone say that in this case, someone imitated the killer in monk clothes?"

"This……"

Xu Zun just wanted to answer her a few words, but saw a group of people rushing like lightning outside the Arhat Temple.

The leader was a soldier in armor who fell off his horse as soon as he reached the temple.

"Master Wuzheng, be careful..."

The soldiers behind got off their horses one after another, wanting to help them.

But this person got up from the ground with hands and feet, and then ran towards the temple in a stumbling manner.

Hey?
What a coincidence, Xu Zun's eyes lit up, he didn't expect that he also knew this corporal leader, it was the same Wu Zheng he met in Dahuai Town.

His name is Ran Lin, and he is Wu Zheng of the No.17 team of the garrison.

It turned out to be him! ! ?

Ran Lin didn't notice Xu Zun and Huo Anu, but ran straight to Shen Xinglian who was standing at the entrance of the temple.

"Master Captain, sir..." Ran Lin was out of breath and knelt down to Shen Xinglian, as if she was out of her wits.

Shen Xinglian couldn't help but look heavy, and while supporting him, he persuaded regretfully: "Commander Ran, my condolences..."

"what!?"

In a word, Ran Lin had already confirmed the identity of the deceased, and it was her own beloved wife.

He rushed into the temple in a hurry, and after a while, his mournful and indignant cries came from the temple!

"My God...why is this...Yushu...Yushu...don't...ah..."

Seeing this, Shen Xinglian immediately entered the temple to comfort him.

And Lu Mingyue, who was standing at the door, stopped making noise, and lowered her head as if empathizing.

And at this moment, another carriage drove by.

The carriage came to a complete stop, but Li Yan, the governor, came out of the carriage in a panic.

It's really hard for the assassin, since the iron coffin case, he has been traveling all the way, has been frightened, and has never had a moment of leisure.

He is old, he has been physically and mentally exhausted after several tosses, and even walking has become shaky...
