Uncle Detective Di Renjie, I build a crime-solving team

The coroner obtained permission and stood next to the body of the woman in bronze armor on the other side.

"A woman in bronze armor. There are no wounds on her skull, face, or body. The only wound on her body is this one on her neck."

"After examination, it was found that she was killed by a sharp sword. The criminal stabbed her with a sword and killed her instantly!"

Di Renjie closed his eyes and said helplessly, "They are really vicious villains. Their purpose must be to kill the thieves in the cave. After killing the bronze-armored woman, they brutally killed Princess Yiyang."

Di Renjie walked in the temporary morgue, his mind working rapidly, and then he pieced together what he believed to be the truth of the incident!

"When we arrived last night, the bodies in the cave had been dead for about a day. Therefore, I infer that this happened the night before yesterday."

The following is Mr. Di’s brilliant reasoning…

The night before midnight.

The bronze-armored woman, Jin Mulan, the real murderer of the murder of the envoys, returned to the ghost town, which is Yao's shop, overnight after learning that Viper was dead.

Inside the Yao family shop, they entered the secret passage leading to the cave!

And at this moment, Jin Mulan's enemy, or rather, the enemy of Jin Mulan's force, followed!

These enemies were quite powerful and their numbers were not large. They followed Jin Mulan and the bad guys into the cave.

In the cave passage where a large number of corpses were located, Jin Mulan's enemies temporarily revealed their figures.

The reason they showed up was probably because they knew the passage ahead was large and the bad guys could easily escape, or they thought that place was suitable for a battle area.

No matter what the reason was, they did show up and they stopped the bad guys who were walking in the cave passage!

Afterwards, these people had a brutal battle with the criminals. It could be said to be a massacre. After all, there were only the bodies of the criminals at the scene!

From the direction of the blood splatter and the bodies of the criminals, it can be seen that the attackers were not even injured. It is also possible that after those people were injured, they cleaned up the scene, but this is somewhat unnecessary.

After all the criminals were killed, those people continued to chase Jin Mulan and found Jin Mulan and Li Qingxia deep in the passage.

Those people first caught up with and killed Jin Mulan, and then, fearing that Li Qingxia would leak the news, they killed Li Qingxia as well!

However, there is another possibility for Li Qingxia's death, that is, the murderers thought that Li Qingxia was in cahoots with the criminals, so they killed Li Qingxia as well...

The reasoning ends here.

I have to say, this is the reasoning that is closest to the truth.

Everyone thought that this was most likely the final truth, but...why did that group of murderers kill Jin Mulan and the bad guys?

This was a very new problem, and until now they had not even the slightest trace of the murderers.

"So, who are the murderers?"

"And, uncle, do you really think so?"

Li Cunxi put down the bowl in his hand and asked with an innocent look on his face.

Hearing this, Di Renjie was stunned for a moment, then he showed a amiable expression.

He came to stand in front of Li Cunxi, patted Li Cunxi on the shoulder and said:

"That's what I think, but everyone is bound to make mistakes, right? Come to my room tonight and we'll discuss this slowly."

Li Cunxi cupped his hands and said, "Nephew understands, uncle!"

……

The autopsy was over, and the problems with the Yao family shop were resolved.

only……

Di Renjie was acting strangely today. As soon as the isolation zone was dug, he hurriedly ordered people to burn down the Yao family shop, and personally threw several torches on the surrounding houses.

Only after watching the fire in Yao's shop engulf the entire house did Di Renjie breathe a sigh of relief.

"Come here, bury Princess Yiyang in Youzhou and keep watch over Youzhou forever. She was a princess who served the country during her lifetime and rests in Youzhou after her death. Although it is a pity, her life was not in vain."

Di Renjie rode on a tall horse and ordered his thousand men to guard the road.

"Also, immediately throw the body of the bandit leader Jin Mulan into the mountains to feed the wild wolves. How can such a sinner be allowed to remain intact in the world!"

"Yes, my lord!"

Yang Fang and Ren Kuo took the order and left. Yang Fang went to throw away Jin Mulan's body, while Ren Kuo rode back to Youzhou at full speed to buy a coffin. As soon as Li Qingxia's body arrived, he would immediately put Li Qingxia in the coffin.

Li Cunxi was also riding on a horse, thinking seriously about who would kill the criminals and his cousin Li Qingxia.

But no matter how he thought about it, he had a hunch.

"Sir, a villager said he heard someone shouting something in the passage the night before."

Not long after they walked away, Lu Dayou suddenly came over on horseback.

"What, did anyone hear someone shouting in the passage?"

"Yes, sir!"

"Call someone here quickly."

Soon, Lu Dayou's good friend Erwang came over with Lu Dayou.

The man was disheveled and said as he walked: "Dog, how dare I lie to you? We are good friends, and you saved my life, I will definitely not lie to you."

As they were talking, the two men came to Di Renjie's horse.

"Sir, it's him. He is my good friend Erwang. He was captured two years ago and was rescued last night." Lu Dayou quickly turned to Erwang and said, "This is Sir Di. Please tell him what happened?"

"Sir, I, Erwang, pay my respects to you! Sir, I heard someone shouting in the passage, saying something like 'Baihelin thieves'!"

"Bai Helin thieves? When did you hear about it?" Di Renjie frowned and asked quickly.

"It's like this, sir. We were in the cave, and those people only gave us one meal a day. We could tell how hungry we were by how long it had been!" Erwang gestured, "Before sir, I hadn't eaten for about a day and a half. Calculating the time I had been hungry, I heard the voice of 'White Crane Forest thieves' the night before yesterday."

"The night before yesterday? Wasn't that the time period when I determined that the criminals died? During that time period, the Baihelin thieves appeared... Can we say that the deaths of those criminals were related to the Baihelin thieves?"

Di Renjie thought for a moment while riding on his horse, and temporarily regarded the Baihelin thieves as one of the suspects.

However, Erwang is only a human being after all, and his words cannot be trusted completely.

So Di Renjie asked, "Besides you, who else heard it?"

"Master, besides me, there are seven or eight other people who also heard the words 'White Crane Forest thief'."

"Bring them all here, I'll ask them."

Li Cunxi, who was following Di Renjie, became stunned when he heard about the thieves in Baihelin.

White Crane Forest!

This may not leave much impression on officials who are far away from officialdom.

However, if anyone who has been in the underworld heard about the Bai Helin case, then everyone would know about it!

The Baihelin case was a major incident in which the governor of Lizhou was kidnapped and his family members were seized in Baihelin when he was in office, and more than 1,200 people were killed by 19 people!

Yet not a single one of the nineteen thieves survived!

The reason why Li Cunxi knew about this was, of course, because Ma Rong was one of the nineteen thieves in Baihelin!
