Da Song Private Investigator

It rained all night, Hwarang and the others have rarely seen such a heavy rain. I wonder if it is God trying to make up for the previous drought in Huainan City.

It's just that even if you want to make up for it, it's really cruel to bet so much all at once.

Fortunately, after dawn, the rain stopped, and the whole mid-spring became a lot more beautiful. When I opened the door, there was a scent of flowers and soil. Everything seemed beautiful, and everything was really beautiful.

And for such a beautiful day, what Wen Meng and the others wanted was to relax. They wanted to walk around, but just when they were about to walk around, a yamen servant hurriedly reported that someone had found him outside the city. a corpse.

This murder case was a bit of a disappointment, and what made Hualang feel even more disappointing was that Sima Guang, like Bao Zheng and Tong Zhuo, came to him whenever there was a murder case. Don't they know that he is a private detective, and the purpose of solving the case is to... money?

Even though they thought so, Hwarang and the others hurried to the murder scene.

The murder scene was five miles east of Huainan City, where there was a creek, and the body was less than 100 meters away from the creek. It was a depression, blocked by mounds, and it was very hidden.

This morning, an old man came out to pick up a tree branch broken by the wind and rain, and found it by accident at that place. Now the old man's expression is still in a trance state. Thinking about it, even though he has lived a long time, he still has something to say about the corpse. Not afraid.

When Hwarang and others arrived at the scene of the murder, Sima Guang had already arrived with the yamen servants. After seeing Hwarang, he hurried up to greet him. Hwarang nodded, and then began the autopsy.

The corpse was a man, about 20 years old, with an average appearance. There was a wound on the back of the deceased's head. After careful inspection, it was confirmed that it was caused by a heavy object, and there was nothing else.

After this inspection, the cause of death of the deceased was found out, but judging from the surrounding conditions of the deceased, there were no footprints of other outsiders around the deceased, which means that it can be said with certainty that the deceased was killed during heavy rain, and this The time period is too long, so Hwarang used his own knowledge to deduce that the deceased should have been killed not long after the heavy rain yesterday and before dark.

At this moment, Hwarang suddenly felt that this person looked familiar. After carefully cleaning up the mud on the face of the deceased, Hwarang suddenly discovered that he had seen the deceased before. They stayed under the eaves to avoid the rain yesterday. At that time, the deceased was also taking shelter from the rain. He seemed very anxious and wanted to rush into the rain several times, but why did a person like him die suddenly?

Yin Wucuo and Wen Meng didn't notice this person, because they didn't pay attention to many things unconsciously like Hwarang. When Hwarang said these things, everyone had several questions in their minds. , who killed this man?

Was he killed after running out of town in the rain?

What is he doing out of town?

With these questions in mind, some things became easier. First of all, Hua Lang asked Sima Guang to send someone to find out the identity of the deceased. Since he ran from the city to the outside, maybe many people in Huainan City knew him. , his home may also be outside the city.

Knowing this, it shouldn't be a big problem to figure out the identity of the deceased.

And after giving such instructions, the next thing they have to do is to search around to see if they can find some clues. Although the place where the deceased is the deceased does not mean that it is the scene of the first murder, maybe After killing someone, the murderer may not necessarily remove the body.

Sima Guang led his people back to Huainan City to look for someone who knew the deceased, while Hualang and the others searched the creek. After walking for a cup of tea, they found a family not far from the creek. The family was built on the side of the creek, and it was very simple. In the early sunshine after the storm, the hut looked very elegant, as if it had been painted.

And when everyone was staring at the hut, the door of the hut opened suddenly, and then walked out from inside. A boy came out, and the boy saw Hwarang and others as soon as he went out. He looked a little surprised, and asked quickly: "You guys?" ... who are you?"

There was nothing unusual about the boy's expression. Hwarang bowed his hands slightly to the man, and asked, "A murder happened not far from your home. We came here to investigate. Last night, did you find anything unusual?"

The man thought for a while, then shook his head: "No, the wind and rain were so strong last night, I didn't hear anything."

Seeing the boy's reaction like this, Hwarang frowned slightly. He felt that the boy's reaction was too calm. Generally speaking, after he said that a murder happened not far from here, other people would probably be very surprised, and then panicked. What did you say, there was a murder?But this person just thought about it, and then he didn't hear anything.

This young man must have known something, but he refused to say it.

However, if you ask about it, I’m afraid you won’t be able to ask anything. Finally, after thinking about it for a while, Hwarang thinks that if you continue to stay here and ask, you may not be able to ask anything. It’s better to leave and look elsewhere. , just send someone to spy on him.

After slightly cupping his hands, Hwarang immediately led his people away, and not long after leaving, a government servant was caught spying on him.

We walked along that creek for a long distance, but after walking like this for a long time, we didn't see anything suspicious again. The heavy rain last night probably destroyed many clues. It is obviously impossible to find out something through these clues.

Therefore, everyone can only pin their hopes on Sima Guang. If Sima Guang can find people who knew the deceased, perhaps starting from those people, he may find something.

As the wind blew and it became warmer, everyone immediately returned to Huainan City. Around afternoon, a yamen servant hurried over and said that they had found someone who knew the deceased.

From the mouth of the yamen servant, Hwarang and the others temporarily knew some information about the deceased, but as for other specific matters, they had to go to the government yamen to ask the insider.

According to the news that the yamen servant told Hua Lang, Hua Lang and the others knew that the deceased was Sun Zihao, who worked as a clerk in an inn called San Bei Dao in Huainan City, and lived outside the city, but they didn't know where he lived outside the city.

It is even more impossible to know about the behavior of the deceased before and how it has anything to do with the people. All of this must be done after they go to the government office and ask the insider. The insider is Xu Sanbei, the owner of the Three Cups Inn. .
