The last three kingdoms

Chapter 38 I'm Not Joking
Just as Liu Yin squatted down, he could hear Zhang Le sneering from behind: "Lord You Cheng, don't waste your efforts, trying to find evidence on those dead bodies, unless the sun comes out from the west."

Although Zhang Le is young and has just reached the weak crown, he has served in the Lieutenant's Mansion for some time. He also has his own experience on how to solve the case. In his opinion, these assassins who dared to assassinate the emperor must have made thorough preparations. There is nothing that can reveal identity.

Liu Yin naturally understands this truth, but as a special police officer for many years, Liu Yin is still used to looking for clues in the clues, and those places that many people ignore may become the breakthrough point of the case.

He carefully inspected each of the corpses. As Zhang Le inferred, these assassins were indeed very cautious. There were no markers on their bodies to prove their identities, and all the clothes they wore were Shu. The weapons used are all standard weapons of the Shu army. At least from the surface, there are no valuable clues.

There are a total of 35 corpses of men in black in the bamboo forest, aged between 25 and 35. These men in black are very brave, and they still killed and injured dozens of Habayashi despite being outnumbered. guard.Moreover, these men in black had clearly made up their minds to die. None of the men in black who were wounded in the fighting were captured alive. Black blood oozed from the corners of their mouths, apparently committing suicide by taking poison.

Liu Yin of later generations has watched many spy war movies, and those failed spies in the camera will bite poison and commit suicide without exception.Nima, isn't this nonsense, although hiding poison in the mouth is impossible to guard against, but that thing is too risky, if he is not careful, if he bites his poisonous teeth, he will die when he doesn't want to die.

These men in black took poison and committed suicide, obviously it is impossible to hide poison in their mouths.Liu Yin looked carefully, and finally found that the secret was in the nail tip of the little finger of their left hand, and there was still white powder inside, which should be poison like arsenic.It is estimated that after they had no hope of surviving, they sucked the little finger of their left hand and died of poisoning immediately.

These people are probably killers known as dead men. They would rather commit suicide than fall into the hands of the enemy and become a living victim. It is easy for a person to choose to commit suicide, but it is not necessarily possible to have the will to resist the enemy's endless torture to extract a confession.

"Where did the assassin who assassinated His Majesty escape?" Liu Yin stood up and asked.

"The assassin jumped off the cliff, but his body was not found in the pool at the bottom of the cliff." An officer reported.

"Take me to see the place where he jumped off the cliff." Liu Yin's heart suddenly moved.

Soon, they came to that cliff, no matter Liu Yin or Zhang Le and Zhao Zhuo were familiar with this place, a few days ago, Liu Yin fell from this cliff, if Liu Yin is safe and sound, it proves that The assassin must have escaped from here too.

Liu Yin has already experienced the skill of an assassin, and he will definitely not be inferior to him. There are many ivy on the cliff wall, and he can go down to the bottom of the valley by following the ivy, and he can catch the ivy in a hurry. If the assassin stepped on it earlier, and if he was prepared, he could obviously climb down the cliff in an easier way.

The clue was broken here, and Liu Yin fell into deep thought.

After a while, Liu Yin turned his head and asked Zhang Le, "Captain Zhang, weren't you in charge of inspecting Mount Qingcheng a few days ago? Didn't you find anyone suspicious?"

Zhang Le said with a half-smile, "Of course."

Liu Yin's heart trembled, and he said, "Who is it?"

"It's you, You Cheng." A strange smile appeared on Zhang Le's face.

"Zhang Duwei, now is not the time to joke." Liu Yin said with a serious face.

"How dare I joke with adults. A few days ago, when I was on patrol, I found a woman who collected herbs suspiciously. She had been wandering around Mount Qingcheng for several days. She was different from ordinary women who gathered herbs. A woman has a fixed location for herb collection, and generally she will not change places easily. After this woman entered the mountain, she wandered around, and she hardly saw how much medicinal materials were added to her medicine basket, so I suspect that she has other purposes. The Japanese wanted to capture her and bring her back to the Lieutenant's Mansion for questioning, but Lord Youcheng accidentally rescued her. If you hadn't blocked the sword for His Majesty in front of the holy car, and then you were named the lieutenant Youcheng by the holy majesty, I'm afraid The one I want to take now is you, my lord." Zhang Le said in a leisurely manner, the smile on his face became more and more weird.

Liu Yin was taken aback, why did he fight Zhang Le at that time?Wasn't it because Liu Xun robbed the women first, and on the way down the mountain, he bumped into Zhang Le again. Zhang Le's obscene expression at that time was not much different from now, this guy was born with a cheap look ?At that time, Liu Yin mistakenly thought that Zhang Le was appointed by Liu Xun, so he would think that he was indeed on business, so Liu Yin fought with him unceremoniously. Could there be another secret?

"Zhang Duwei, are you sure you were not following the Xinxing King Liu Xun's order and came to intercept the herb-picking girl that day?" Liu Yin naturally wanted to ask clearly about this matter.

"You mean that I listened to the appointment of Huang You, the younger brother of the eunuch Huang Hao? Damn! No matter how bad I am, Zhang Le, I don't want to make friends with eunuchs. My lord is insulting our old Zhang family!" Le was a little frustrated.

Zhao Zhuo immediately cupped his hands and said, "Your Excellency, I can testify to this lowly position. At that time, Zhang Duwei and I were ordered by the former Youcheng Lord Liu to conduct inspections in Qingcheng Mountain. There was absolutely no order by anyone. I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding."

Liu Yin groaned lightly, his mind was spinning rapidly, it seemed that it was indeed a misunderstanding at that time, he really regarded Zhang Le and the others as Liu Xun's minions, but the assassination had not happened at that time, now it seems that it was true Something strange.

"Lieutenant Zhang, are you sure that the woman collecting herbs is acting suspiciously?"

Zhang Le seemed dissatisfied with Liu Yin's continuous questioning, and asked instead: "Your Excellency stayed with that woman for a day and a night, didn't you notice anything unusual?"

Zhang Le's words made Liu Yin doubtful.snow dance?When we first met, Liu Yin really didn't have any other ideas about the girl who looked as weak as a willow, and only regarded her as an ordinary girl collecting herbs. Yin was taken aback. How could ordinary mountain women be so calm? It was just that the special circumstances at that time prevented Liu Yin from thinking too much. Looking back now, she is really different!
