The King of the City

The shoe prints on the ground were a bit messy, and if Zhang Tiannan were to distinguish them, it would be very difficult to distinguish them with the naked eye. .

Zhang Tian'an and Luo Heshu carefully observed the messy shoe prints on the ground, while Lin Chen walked over.

After squatting on the ground, Lin Chen pointed to one of the shoe prints and said, "The length of this shoe print is 25 centimeters. According to the texture and size of the shoe print, it can be seen that it is Tian Wen's shoe print."

Zhang Tianan heard the words and walked over. She didn't change her shoes yesterday. After walking to the shoe print, Zhang Tianan stepped on the ground hard, leaving a trace exactly like the shoe print.

Lin Chen then pointed to another shoe print and said, "This shoe print is 29 centimeters long and has a heel. It is Officer Luo's leather shoe print. This shoe print is 28 centimeters long and belongs to skate shoes. It is the shoe on my feet."

After talking about the three shoe prints, Lin Chen pointed to another shoe print and said, "This shoe print is 27 cm long, which is similar in size to my shoes, but the texture left on the sole is completely different from my shoes. "

"My sole texture is a 'W' shape, this shoe print is wavy, although the shoe print has a curvature, but the curvature of that pair of shoes is not as large as mine."

Under Lin Chen's narration, Zhang Tian'an and Luo Heshu also understood. Indeed, in addition to the 11 shoe prints left by the three of them, there is also a fourth person's shoe print.

"That's right, this shoe print doesn't belong to the three of us." Zhang Tianai squatted down and said.

"Judging from the shape of the shoe print and the dryness of the soil, the shoe print should have appeared shortly after we left the shoe print. , that person is going down the mountain, and before we go up the mountain, this person is on the mountain."

"Or, he went up the mountain on another mountain, and then chose to go down the mountain on this road, leaving this shoe print."

When saying this, Lin Chen's tone was always calm, and there was no change in his tone because of this little discovery.

"Last night, you went up the mountain before us. It was very late at that time, and there was only the last light left. We came to the mountain to find you. When we met you here, it was completely dark, and we couldn't see my fingers. of."

Zhang Tiannui paused and continued: "And this fourth shoe print was left after we left. It was already late, so who would be on this mountain at such a late hour?"

"Didn't Mr. Lin say that he saw someone watching us on this mountain?" After Zhang Tian'an's voice fell, Luo Heshu replied, "This shoe print is for going down the mountain, not going up the mountain. Could it be Mr. Lin? That's right, the fourth shoe print was left by the man who was watching us on this mountain?"

Without Luo Heshu saying it, Zhang Tianan also thought of this.

"Lin Chen, when you went to the mountain yesterday to find the person who was watching us, did he not leave at the time, but hid in a dark corner, and only left quietly after he saw us leaving?" Zhang Tian Ai looked at Lin Chen and asked.

When he said this guess, a trace of fear rose in Zhang Tian's heart.

Imagine that it is raining in the sky and you are walking in a dark forest. You think you are the only one in this forest, but in a corner of the darkness, there is another person quietly observing your every move. .

It's fine if the person isn't malicious, but it's dangerous if he wants to kill you.

After Lin Chen heard Zhang Tian'an's words, he shook his head slightly and said, "After I went up the mountain last night, I observed it all the way up, and when I got to the place where that person appeared, I also carefully observed the surroundings, that person Should have left."

"Mr. Lin, it was actually very dark last night. Did you... have you used a flashlight? Under that kind of light, your eyes should be able to ignore a lot of things. There are people hiding in the corner, and you may not be able to find them. ." Luo Heshu said this rather euphemistically.

If it's not euphemistic, it means that you don't even have a flashlight, so in the dim light, let alone to see if there are people hiding around, you can't see clearly even when you walk.

The idea in Zhang Tian'an's mind was similar to that of Luo Heshu, that is, the light was too dim, and Lin Chen didn't notice that there was someone hiding in a corner.

But after Zhang Tianan looked at Lin Chen's serious face, she had an unconditional trust in Lin Chen again in her heart.

"if……"

Zhang Tian'an exhaled and said, "If the person who was standing on the mountain watching us has already left, then on this hill at that time, besides the three of us, and the person who was watching us, there was another person here. on a mountain."

"Didn't Director Wang say that because of the rainy night serial murder case, every household in the village went home early. At that time, why would anyone stay on this mountain?" Luo Heshu said, "So I It feels like Mr. Lin didn't see that person, there were four people on the mountain at that time, and there was no fifth person."

Lin Chen stood up slowly, expressionless, and said, "It doesn't matter if there were four or five people on the mountain at that time, or whether the police were mobilized, check this Wangjia Village to see if any villagers saw it after we left. , someone came down from this mountain."

"Okay." Luo Heshu nodded, but Director Liu had instructed him to absolutely obey Mr. Lin's orders. After saying one line, he immediately took out his mobile phone and called the captain of the criminal police.

After receiving a call from Luo Heshu, the captain of the criminal police said 567 to Liu Bureau, and then took a group of police officers to Wangjiacun.

On the mountain, Luo Heshu and Zhang Tiannan both took out their mobile phones to take a picture of the shoe print. The shoe print is still relatively clear. If you compare the shoes with the shoe print with the photos, you can easily compare wen combine.

After taking the photo, the three of them continued to walk up the mountain. After discovering the shoe print of the fourth person, on the way up the mountain, Zhang Tianan and Luo Heshu both carefully observed whether there were any suspicious shoes on the ground. printed.

It's just that on the next road, there are weeds and gravel on most of the ground, and no suspicious shoe prints have been found.

Not long after, the three came to what Lin Chen said and saw the position where the figure was standing.

This is a small open space, with a lot of rocks exposed on the ground, and it is also overgrown with weeds.

The weeds had fresh traces of being trampled on, which were left by Lin Chen and the suspicious figure last night.

The three began to act separately, checking whether they could find shoe prints except for the stampede marks left on the weeds.

After searching for a while, the three of them will soon be together. The result of the search is that there are too many weeds and the soil is relatively hard, and no obvious shoe prints are found.

Luo Heshu stood in this open space, he looked in the direction of the village, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said to Lin Chen, "Mr. Lin, I have a question.".

"What question?" Lin Chen said.

Luo Heshu pointed to the direction of the opposite village, and he said, "Although it is not too far from the village, it is still a certain distance. You said that after you turned your head, the figure ran away, but the sky was dark at that time. Dim, that person, can he really see you turning your head?"

Zhang Tianai also stood at this position and looked at Wangjiacun, which was indeed quite a distance away.

After Lin Chen heard the words, he said, "I turned my head to look at it, and his hands moved down from his head, so I was thinking, that person's hands should be holding a telescope."

"Telescope?" Zhang Tianan said, "It is now certain that there was indeed someone on this mountain at the time. If that person had a telescope, then when you turned your head to look at him, he turned his head and ran away, which can be explained."

Luo Heshu also nodded and said, "Well, with telescopes, this can be explained."

The three stayed on the mountain for a while. Standing here, they could see Wangjia Village. Lin Chen and the others soon saw policemen walking around the village.

There was nothing left to stay on the mountain, and immediately, the three of them walked down the mountain.
