Chapter 399 Observation
Not to mention two or three days ago, but seven or eight days ago, there was nothing unusual.

Neighbors said that in the past few days, at most the Cao family left early and returned late, looking for the Wu family.

They also asked their neighbors to help find the person.

But apart from looking for people, the Cao family is very quiet every day.

If there was really any movement in the Cao family, it was impossible for them not to hear it.

"With such a big thing happening, how could there be no movement at all?" Magistrate Liu frowned and looked at the government servant beside him.

Just now, the government officials, together with Li Hong, Zhang Qianyun and others, went to inquire about the surrounding neighbors.

Seeing Magistrate Liu looking over, the leading Yamen servant said: "Those people just now really said that they didn't hear any movement from the Cao family in the past few days."

Magistrate Liu was puzzled: "If Cao Yuanhan really killed so many people, how could there be no movement? Moreover, the bones of other members of the Cao family have not been found until now. Maybe the remaining few are still alive and just escaped. Shouldn't That’s it!”

Hearing this, Xie Rugu glanced at Magistrate Liu and reminded: "If the few missing people from the Cao family really escaped from the Cao family alive, how could they not report to the official after they left? Even if you don’t report to the official, you will seek help from others, such as your neighbors or your own relatives, but it seems that Doctor Cao hasn’t said anything about this?”

Magistrate Liu choked.

In the past few days, he had met with Dr. Cao because of the fish lady incident.

Doctor Cao indeed never mentioned anything strange about the Cao family.

But, maybe it's just that they haven't interacted with each other in the past few days?
After all, they are just distant relatives. It is impossible for my family members to see them every day, let alone distant relatives.

However, if Cao Yuanhan's two brothers really escaped from the Cao family alive, they really shouldn't have heard anything from them until now.

Logically speaking, they should have reported to the official a long time ago.

The more Magistrate Liu thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.

"Ten thousand steps back." Magistrate Liu tried to calm down while searching for clues, "Even if Cao Yuanhan did all this, how could he, an ordinary person, kill so many people so easily and still... No movement at all? Why do I feel that this matter is closely related to evil spirits?"

As Magistrate Liu said this, his eyes couldn't help but glance at Song Shiyun and Li Hong.

Song Shiyun remained silent.

In fact, this is correct.

How could an ordinary person kill so many people so easily without any news?

Song Shiyun actually believed that all this was done by evil spirits.

But rather...

There's no clue right now.

Song Shiyun looked around the empty courtyard and didn't feel any strange smell.

Song Shiyun couldn't help but frown.

"We still don't know what's going on in this matter." Li Hong muttered: "I can only say that it is possible, and we have to investigate step by step."

However, Magistrate Liu was so worried that his hair was almost turning white. He kept sighing, "The case of Mrs. Wu's disappearance has not been solved yet. Something like this happened to the Cao family again. Once word spreads, the reputation of our Jingchuan City Government Office will be completely ruined." destroyed!"

After finishing speaking, Magistrate Liu paused.

He suddenly raised his head and looked at Li Hong and others, "Miss Song, Master Li, are the events of the Cao family today related to Wu's disappearance?"

Li Hong: "How do you say that?"

Magistrate Liu said: "I'm just guessing, is the Wu family really missing? Is it possible that the Cao family is like this because of the Wu family?"

Song Shiyun frowned, "Prefect Liu, do you think a woman from the Wu family with a child can kill so many people quietly and then let Cao Yuanhan commit suicide?"

Magistrate Liu quickly explained, "No, no, no, that's not what I meant. I mean, could it be that Cao Yuanhan and his parents have long had a grudge, and he has been dissatisfied with his parents for a long time, and wants to die with them, so he sent them away early. Killed his wife and children?"

Song Shiyun: "..."

For a moment, she admired Magistrate Liu's imagination.

"...Isn't this impossible?" Bai Qianli couldn't help but said: "Liu Zhifu, you didn't say it before, Cao Yuanhan is honest and honest, and has always had a harmonious relationship with his family? What's more, even if he conspired with the Wu family , one person killed so many living people, there should be some movement, right? And what about his younger brothers and sisters? Cao Yuanhan committed suicide, so we can't just dispose of their bodies, right?"

"Taking a step back, the bodies of those brothers and sisters were really disposed of by Cao Yuanhan. How did Cao Yuanhan dispose of them? If the bodies were taken out and buried, why didn't the neighbors notice it at all, and there was no trace of blood outside? "Zhang Qianyun took Bai Qianli's words and said, "There are many things here that don't make sense."

Magistrate Liu was stunned for a moment and frowned: "I was just guessing..." He suddenly remembered that Mrs. Wu's whereabouts are still unknown.

No one knows what happened to Wu.

Lady Yu only said that she saw a strange shadow on the wall that day.

But maybe she was dazzled?
Even if she was not dazzled, the shadow on the wall of Jia's house was not necessarily related to Wu's disappearance.

Until now, no one can say for sure whether Wu disappeared in danger or hid herself.

If it weren't for the Jia family, a series of problems would have arisen.

Just relying on Mrs. Yu's words, there is no way to involve the Jia family.

The reason why they suspected going to Jia's house at first was because Mrs. Yu and the old man who was looking at the back door of Jia's house jumped out one after another.

But it's also possible that they were bribed?

Magistrate Liu's mind was agitated just now, and he suddenly thought of these things.

But if you think about it carefully, there are still many things that are unclear.

"I'm coming--"

At this moment, the yamen servant next to him suddenly shouted.

Magistrate Liu said impatiently: "What's going on?"

The officer pointed to the door of the courtyard, "It's Doctor Cao and the others here!"

Hearing this, Song Shiyun and Xie Ru turned their heads and looked towards the entrance of the courtyard.

Then he saw the government officials who had been sent out before, taking Doctor Cao with them, just walking to the door.

Hearing what the court official said, Doctor Cao saw Magistrate Liu turn his head and wanted to give him a hand.

However, as soon as he folded his hands, he saw a large amount of blood on the ground in the courtyard.

Doctor Cao's expression suddenly changed. He lifted up his hem and walked in quickly, "This, is this happening - Yuan Han?"

Before Doctor Cao finished speaking, he caught a glimpse of Cao Yuanhan's body next to the courtyard gate.

Doctor Cao's expression suddenly changed.

He rushed over quickly, his face was pale, and he stretched out his hand tremblingly to explore Cao Yuanhan's breath.

Feeling that his whole body was cold and breathless, Doctor Cao quickly retracted his hand, "What, what's going on..."

He quickly looked at Magistrate Liu and others.

"Prefect Liu, what... is going on? Why did Yuan Han..."

Before Doctor Cao finished speaking, he caught a glimpse of the blood stains on the ground spreading all the way into the main room.

Doctor Cao looked over and saw two corpses lying on the ground.

Doctor Cao's eyes widened in shock. He stood up and ran over, holding on to the door frame. When he saw the body inside, it was his uncle and aunt. His feet slipped and he almost fainted.

"W-what happened? Okay, why did it become like this?" Dr. Cao's voice was choked with tears.

Song Shiyun and Xie Ru remained silent, just staring at Dr. Cao's reaction.

From the first moment Doctor Cao entered the courtyard, Song Shiyun had been observing him.

Judging from every reaction of Dr. Cao, they were natural and normal, not pretending at all.

If he was really pretending, then Dr. Cao would probably be a god.

"Zhifu Liu, you... do you know what is going on?" Doctor Cao asked, still staring at Zhifu Liu.

Magistrate Liu didn't know how to explain it to Dr. Cao. While he glanced at Li Hong and Song Shiyun, expecting them to speak, he coughed and said vaguely: "We don't know yet, we just happened to come to Cao Yuanhan to ask about the situation." , we didn’t expect that as soon as we opened the door, we were like this. We were also shocked, so we asked Dr. Cao to come over and ask about the situation. Dr. Cao, aren’t you and Cao Yuanhan’s family relatives? Do you know if there has been any trouble in Cao Yuanhan’s family recently? What contradiction?"

Doctor Cao was a little confused, "What kind of conflict can there be? Their family is the most kind-hearted. I have never heard of their family having conflicts and blushing? What's more, Yuan Han's family... has become like this, with Does it matter whether they have any conflicts at home?”
