Kaifeng Cat and Mouse Detective Manuscript

The dust on the ground was lifted up as Zhan Zhao walked around, and only the sound of footsteps echoed in the entire tower.

Walking to the stairs, the top is still the same as the bottom, the only difference is that the bookshelves full of rows have been beaten to pieces, countless books are scattered on the ground, there are traces of sword marks and darts on the shelves, it should be a long time ago Been through a fight.Zhan Zhao pulled out the giant que, and gently flipped open a book with the tip of his sword, but the records in it were not written in the Central Plains.

Looking around, the entire second floor looked dark and empty, and it was magnified with every breath.Zhan Zhao went to the window and set up the window. The sun was just right in the morning, and in an instant, he stroked his arms and let the sun shine into the depths of the round tower.The crisp chirping of sparrows also reached his ears, making Zhan Zhao suddenly relax.

It was also this light that allowed him to see clearly that besides the books, there were dozens of broken picture albums, which showed the same woman.

After quickly approaching, Zhan Zhao tore off the hem of his clothes, and wanted to pick it up to check, but he didn't expect that the booklet would be shattered into dust as soon as he touched it.

"It seems that I think Jinshui Town is too simple." Zhan Zhao pondered for a moment, thinking of Mr. Gongsun's superb medical skills and erudite mind, it's better to leave this place for him to see, than to act rudely by himself broke something.

After Zhan Zhao came out, he first asked Detective Liu to lock the door again, and waited for Mr. Gongsun from Kaifeng Mansion to come over before opening it.

It wasn't until Detective Liu quickly asked why Bai Shaoxia was gone that Zhan Zhao remembered that Bai Yutang was still on the roof.

"Catcher Liu, you go back first and ask the magistrate to pass the book to Mr. Bao Feige. I found thousands of ancient books in Jinshui Town, and I need to trouble you to make a trip."

"Master Zhan, don't worry, I'll take care of it right away. By the way, the remaining corpses are outside the back gate of the town, guarded by a pair of people. Just walk along this gravel road." Detective Liu said while pointing A bluestone road on the right side of the round tower.

"Go slowly." Zhan Zhao nodded to him, and after Detective Liu left quickly, he turned around and went up to the top of the tower. stared at Zhan Zhao.

"Sorry, I just checked inside the tower." Zhan Zhao clenched his left fist against his mouth, trying to hide his embarrassment.

"Hehe." Bai Yutang sneered and remained motionless.

"Okay, come down quickly, stand on top to catch the thunder? But there is no rain today." Zhan Zhao saw that he was indifferent, so he handed him over.

"Then I'll forgive you generously once." Bai Yutang was reluctant on the surface, as if he was blaming Zhan Zhao for holding him up for so long, but in his heart, seeing Zhan Zhao pulling him down himself, he was overjoyed , those eyes that pretended to be cold were also bent for an instant, just in time for Zhan Zhao to raise his hand and bump into him.

"Zhan Xiaozhao, do you think this town looks like a word, surrounded by walls, there are only two trails at the corners on the left and right, one leads down the mountain, and the other leads to the back forest."

On the top floor of the round tower, you can see the shape of the entire Jinshui Town and even the entire valley.Perhaps because of the descendants of the Miao people, the architecture here is also very different from that of Xiangzhou City. Just looking at the terrain, Zhan Zhao felt a little depressed.

"Yutang, do you feel a little weird?" Zhan Zhao felt that this was not his illusion, this place, whether it was people or things, must have hidden secrets.

"Weird? Feels like a prison?"

"Yes, whether it was when we searched the townspeople's room before, or now, there is a feeling of suffocation."

Zhan Zhao sat on the tile, closed his eyes and recalled the scenes he saw.

"I also felt this way before, but I thought it was because I was supercilious, so I never mentioned it to you." Thinking of the sudden discomfort he felt when he first entered the town, Bai Yutang suddenly thought of why.

"However, the guards here and Detective Liu are quick, and the magistrate doesn't seem to notice."

Perhaps on the one hand, they were not as sensitive as Zhan Zhao Bai Yutang, and perhaps more came up after the incident, and they were used to it.

"We still have to wait for Mr. Gongsun. He is well-informed, and he may be able to find something from the ancient books in the pagoda."

"Zhan Xiaozhao, let's go and look at the corpse first, let Mr. Bao take care of the other things."

The design of Jinshui Town is quite ingenious. The overall shape is "口", and the two exits form a "~" shape with the road inside, uniting all the families in the whole town.

Before he left, Detective Liu specifically told the guards at the back door to be careful when they saw Zhan Zhao.

The morgue was built temporarily, with grayish-yellow mud walls mixed with wild vegetables, and a green thatched roof.There were a total of five guards around, standing far away, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang just walked out the back door, and they smelled a disgusting stench of corpses, the weather was hard for them.

"Master Zhan!" Seeing Zhan Zhao coming out, the leader hurriedly picked up his saber and ran over, "Captain Liu came here earlier to bring a few blocking pills, let me tell you, if you go into the morgue, you must stuff them into the morgue." nose."

Zhan Zhao took the medicine bottle, opened it, and saw that it was made of four grains of agarwood powder and medicinal herbs. After pouring one portion into his nostrils, he stretched out his hand to invite Bai Yutang, who was reluctant to come forward because of the bad smell, and took the rest Even the medicine and the bottle were thrown to him.

"We're waiting for the news outside. Thank you for your hard work!" Seeing that the two were ready, the guard led them to the morgue, and when they were about 20 meters away, they quickly ran away.Bai, Zhan didn't smell anything after stuffing the thing, but felt that his breathing was not smooth.

With a "beep", the wooden door was pushed open.

"Hmm!" Before Bai Yutang stepped in, he was pushed back disgustedly. The inside is really not for people to enter. The smell is more than a thousand times stronger than the outside, and it came straight to the head. No wonder that Several officials hid far away.

"Yutang, go outside and wait for me first."

Zhan Zhao frowned when he saw the rotten face in front of him, but fortunately, no maggots were born after spraying the medicine.

"It's so disgusting, cat. Leave it to Gongsun Ce and the others. You don't know how to do autopsies anyway." Bai Yutang wanted to step forward to hold Zhan Zhao, but he really couldn't imagine how he could get along with a pile of rotting flesh!

"I have already promised Mr. Bao to check it first. When Mister Gongsun comes over, this pile of meat will probably be eaten by worms until there is not even a bone left." Zhan Zhao waved his hand and asked Bai Yutang to leave first. Anyway, he can't help much here.

"Cat, take care of yourself! Grandpa Bai can't stand this pile of things!" Bai Yutang is a bit of a cleanser, and he can take off even dust on his clothes immediately, not to mention this place, I'm afraid letting him stay for a quarter of an hour is equivalent to killed him.

"Um…"

Zhan Zhao picked up the silver stick placed by the door, which was the autopsy tool left by the previous foreman.Detective Liu didn't prepare a handkerchief, so Zhan Zhao had to tear off another hem.
