I'm a cook in the wasteland

Chapter 271 Murder Case

It's just that when Su Mo went to check the scene, he didn't find any traces of mischief.

However, Su Mo ordered someone to keep a close eye on this area recently.

After all, the city wall is a big deal for the battalion.

However, this seems to be just the beginning.

One after another, accidents began to happen in the camp, and there were not a few people who lost things.

Until this day, the seriousness of the matter changed directly.

dead!
At the door of the hut, Su Mo stood outside, looking at the strength inside with cold eyes.

This hut is not used to live in people, near the periphery, it is a place for those workers to rest.

After finishing work last night, this place should have been locked, but when I opened the door early in the morning, I found that there was a dead person inside.

Looking at the corpse, it was indeed not long before he died.

The person who saw it even said that when he found out, the other person's body was still hot.

But this is winter, with a body with residual heat, it almost means that when it was discovered, the murderer was probably nearby and did not go far.

Sealing the throat with a knife is the murderer's method.

It was straightforward, and the deceased did not experience great pain.

But the blood splattered in the room was like hell, making people afraid to look at it.

There was already a lot of discussion outside the house, and many ordinary people in the camp became sad at this moment.

What if a murderer really appeared in the camp.

"Hey, did any of you notice anything wrong this morning?"

Someone in the crowd shouted, seeing the expression suppressed for a long time: "If you find something wrong, just say it directly, we must quickly find that prisoner!"

"That's right, did anyone see anything?"

The yelling became more and more, but no one stood up.

It seemed that the murderer acted very carefully.

The body was carried down for processing, but not many clues were found on it.

The mood of the residents sank, but the work still had to continue.

While busy, someone left this matter behind. After all, the camp has experienced bigger battles than this before, didn't they all survive it?

Only if things were that simple.

For several days, people died.

And they are all near the wall, as if someone didn't want this wall to build a city, so they took this extreme miss.

But what is the purpose of those people?

"Could there be a spy!"

In the wasteland, there are many enemies in the camp. If someone does not want the scale of the rock camp to continue to expand, it is normal to do such a thing.

"who knows!"

Some people are anxious.

When people were panicking, people naturally arranged a vigil, but the next morning, dead bodies could always be found in some corners.

Isn't this slapping them in the face?

"Hey, Xiaolin, what's wrong with you?"

In the crowd, a child was shouting indignantly, but seeing his friend hesitated, he couldn't help asking with a frightened look.

"nothing?"

Xiao Lin quickly shook his head, but that expression was insincere.

"Hey, what are you afraid of? Is there any difficulty? You are still afraid."

"Don't worry, I'll protect you." The man patted his chest to reassure, seeing his friend like this, Xiao Lin gritted his teeth.

"Well, Brother Li, let me tell you something, you, don't tell the others, because I don't know if it's right."

"Say it."

Brother Li didn't take it seriously, but his attention was still on the discussion.

Until Kobayashi came up to him and said something in his ear.

"what?"

Brother Li jumped up directly, with a loud voice, which immediately attracted the attention of many people.

In the middle of the crowd, Su Mo also looked over.

"Calm down, calm down, maybe I'm wrong, Brother Li, don't!"

Seeing his friend so irritable, Xiao Lin panicked a little.

But Brother Li waved Xiao Lin's hand away, and looked angrily at one person present.

"It's him!"

"My friend said that he was seen sneaking around here last night!"

Brother Li's thick fingers pointed directly at Qi Ling who was standing next to Su Mo.

For a moment, the crowd fell silent.

Qi Ling can be regarded as an old man in this camp, and he has helped the camp a lot.

Now he is Su Mo's confidant.

"Impossible!" Miss A Fang was the first to stand up and refute.

Standing beside Qi Ling with open arms, her little cheeks were puffed up, looking puffy.

On the other hand, Qi Ling, who was identified, showed no fear of being exposed, but just stood there and looked at the other party quietly.

"You said you saw me last night?"

"Just say it."

When Xiao Lin was still a little hesitant, Su Mo gestured.

"...Yes." Kobayashi finally nodded.

"When I woke up last night, I just saw him walking out. I was in a daze at the time. Seeing his fast pace, I thought something happened."

"I chased after him, but I didn't catch up. In the end, he disappeared in this area."

"I didn't think much about it at the time, but who would have known that there would be..."

Now the body was still in place, but it was covered with a white cloth.

The white cloth dyed red is shocking.

Following Xiao Lin's remark, many people looked at Qi Ling suspiciously.

"Are you sure you saw his face?" Lu Xinglan asked with a frown.

"It's a positive face, I won't admit my mistake." Xiao Lin replied firmly.

"But since I didn't see him kill someone with his own eyes, it seems that he can't be identified as the murderer." Lu Xinglan's words made sense.

But still can't appease people's hearts.

"Who else could it be if it wasn't him!"

"I, I actually saw him go out at night two days ago."

Even if it was only a slight sound, at this time, everyone was keen to catch it.

And as the sound sounded, one after another, people began to say that they saw Qi Ling at night.

"That is to say, on the day I saw him, someone must have died after dawn."

"In this case, the murderer is not him or someone."

No matter how deep their feelings are, they can't restrain their hatred for a murderer.

Especially the relatives of the deceased in the past few days, they would want to pounce on Qi Ling and tear Qi Ling apart, and they couldn't keep their sanity at all.

All of a sudden, the crowd erupted.

Some rushed straight out and were eventually stopped.

It's just that the shouting sound was a bit unbearable.

"So, did anyone see Qi Ling kill someone with their own eyes?"

A cold sentence, like a basin of cold water, was poured on everyone's heads. Some people put down their hands and looked at the person who spoke in awe.

It's Somo.

Her gaze scanned the crowd, and all she saw were the people who had just come out of Qi Ling.

"answer my question!"

The too cold voice, coupled with Su Mo's identity, was enough to temporarily calm those people's minds.

"No……"

"I just saw him go out."

"I haven't seen it."

The reply was very low, but it meant the same thing.

"So in the past few days, have other people been seen going out?"

The answer to this question is ultimately yes.
