Chapter 78 The crime scene
How could Zhu You and Ye Ke know that Emperor Xianzong had sent people to monitor their every move all the time. It is said that things like Xiaguang are the crime of deceiving the emperor, but Emperor Xianzong really regarded it as a good omen. How can he not understand that when everyone thinks this thing is true, then it will be true.

The secret guard was an organization specially set up by Emperor Taizu to monitor the officials, and was directly responsible to the emperor. Only the emperor knew who these people were, what position they were, and their status. Few people knew about the existence of the secret guard, only the emperor Only the close ministers can know a thing or two. They may be butchers on the street, maids in the house, or businessmen on foot.

They infiltrated every corner of the dynasty, monitoring any enemy that might threaten the court.

The two people who were not aware of being watched had already woken up early in the morning and came to Fengbo Ridge again. At this moment, the sky was slightly bright, and there was a layer of mist in the forest. In order to avoid unnecessary danger, Zhu You led the people in the forest They rested on the open space in the room, waited for the sun to come out and cleared the fog, and then started the search.

Within a radius of five miles, I searched again, but to no avail.

The search range expanded to a radius of ten miles, and Ye Ke also joined the search. Dozens of police officers from the Criminal Division searched on the Fengbo Ridge all day long until the sun went down. She couldn't hold on anymore, when she searched, she had to go over mountains and climb slopes, and she hadn't eaten all day, so she couldn't hold on any longer.

After finally sitting down on a rock and taking a breath, a piece of pastry was handed over to him, smelling the sweetness of the pastry, Ye Ke cheered up slightly, looked up, and saw that Zhu You was looking down at her, There was some pity in her eyes: "Sister-in-law, be hungry, your health will not recover soon, take a rest."

Ye Ke took the pastry and took a bite carefully. The strong fragrance filled the nostrils. After swallowing a few mouthfuls, she felt much better in her stomach. She also handed the water bottle she carried to Zhu You, who raised his head and drank it.

Just as he was about to speak, Zhu You suddenly caught a glimpse of the servants who stopped and searched and stared at the two of them, his eyes suddenly became sharper, and he said coldly, "Aren't you busy?"

All the yamen servants trembled, and their hands and feet hurriedly got busy again.

Ye Ke muttered while chewing the pastry: "The place where the body was dumped is too far away. How come I haven't found it for so long? It's a bit unreasonable."

Ordinarily, ordinary murderers will find some hidden places to throw their corpses, which is understandable, but this Fengbo Ridge is full of dense forests, and it is inconvenient to walk. If they walk alone and throw the corpses around, they should not be so far apart. It is too time-consuming and labor-intensive to get up, and the places where the corpses are generally thrown away are not too far apart.

Just at this time, another yamen servant stumbled to report: "My lord! I found it!"

The two quickly got up from the stone and walked in the direction of the yamen servant. At this moment, the yamen servant was standing on a slope, and the slope was full of low-growing flat bamboo orchids. Whenever it was winter, the leaves were green and shiny. Yes, it grows very well, and it is foreseeable that when it blooms here in the coming year, it must be very spectacular.

The two climbed up the hillside stepping on the grass and trees, and came to the yamen servant.

"there!"

The two looked in the direction pointed by the yamen servant. There was a depression in front of them, and there were also flat bamboo orchids growing all over the ground. In the middle of the open space, there is another bluestone slab, and a human head is placed on the slab!
"Bastard!" Zhu You cursed angrily, and quickly walked towards the center.

Ye Ke hurriedly followed, and other yamen servants heard the sound, and surrounded the depression.

The two of them soon arrived in front of the bluestone slab. At first they were too far away to see clearly, but when they got closer, Ye Ke's pupils shrank suddenly, but he saw that the bluestone slab was a woman's head. It has been rotten, and the two eyeballs have disappeared. The carrion is full of holes, and maggots are everywhere. If you look closely, it is obvious that it has been eaten by crows and the like.

Ye Ke put on gloves, took out the smock and put it on, and called the yamen servant, Ye Ke complained about the head, and then packed it up and ordered someone to take it back to the criminal justice department.

Later, another yamen servant reported that some limbs were found in other places, but Zhu You and Ye Ke did not leave immediately, but stood in front of the bluestone slab with serious eyes.

"My lord, this should be the scene of the first crime. Look at the traces on the bluestone slab. It is obvious that the murderer was chopped up here!"

Ye Ke pointed to the traces on it and said, Zhu You took a closer look, some of the traces on it were still very new, while some were very old, and even turned black. It was the blood stains that had accumulated over the years after drying. As a result, Zhu You's eyebrows twitched, which meant that more than one person was killed, and there must be more victims.

Not long after, several yamen servants brought the corpse wrapped in white cloth to the two of them. After counting, they found that except for one right leg, the rest were found, and judging from the degree of decay, they were similar to yesterday's corpse.

"Master Ye, does this belong to someone else?" Zhu You said with some uncertainty.

Ye Ke shook his head: "I'm not sure yet, I won't know until I go back and do the splicing." After a pause, Ye Ke asked the servants: "Are there wolves on this Fengbo Ridge all the year round?"

A headhunter immediately reported: "Reporting to Mr. Ye, I learned from the mouth of the hunter that there are indeed wolves, and there have been wolves attacking people many years ago!"

"No wonder!"

"How did you know?"

Ye Ke sneered: "Hmph! This murderer's method is extremely cruel. He brought people here to kill and dismember the body, and then discarded it here. No wonder it was so troublesome for us to find it. There are wolves around. The wolves are devouring blood and smell the blood. Naturally come over to grab the corpse, and after the head wolf eats, the remaining wolves will naturally drag the corpse to other places to eat!"

Everyone suddenly realized that at this time, Zhu You ordered people to expand the search area again, and must find it before dark. Since there are wolves around, it is too dangerous to stay after dark!

But until the sun went down on half of the face, they still got nothing. They had no choice but to give up and go back to the criminal punishment department first.

Before leaving, Ye Ke stood on the slope and looked back at the low-lying land, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"Sister-in-law, what's the matter?" Zhu You noticed Ye Ke's doubts and asked.

Ye Ke couldn't tell, he just looked at the flat ground and the bamboo orchids all over the ground thoughtfully, then shook his head and said, "I can't say, I always feel a little strange, forget it, maybe I'm too sensitive Bar!"

Now that Ye Ke said so, Zhu You didn't get too entangled, and everyone in the criminal punishment department took a rest and left Fengboling.
