2249 There are still dead people
Gu Xin nodded her head, continue.
Chen Pengyuan made an inviting gesture. Princess, please follow me. You’ll know when you come over.
Gu Xin brought Zheng Qiu to the area that was surrounded. It was not a flat area.
There were fallen leaves, wild grass, and rocks all around. There were obvious traces of being dragged on the ground, as well as blood stains.
The bloodstains on a rock the size of a head were the most obvious. Gu Xin didn’t even need to ask for the reason, she could tell that the bloodstains here definitely didn’t belong to the deceased.
There weren’t any large wounds on the deceased’s body. There were only a few wounds, and it was impossible for so much blood to flow out.
Zheng Qiu stepped forward to check and nodded at Gu Xin, ” “Princess, this is all human blood.”
“But the victim didn’t have any major wounds, so there’s no way she could have lost so much blood,” Gu Xin said in a low voice. The blood was the murderer’s, or was there someone else injured or dead? Also, if the victim, Feng Jinshu, was killed here, her clothes would definitely be stained with blood. However, other than the inside, Feng Jinshu’s clothes were clean on the outside.”
Chen Pengyuan stepped forward and cupped his fists,”Princess, I believe that other than miss Feng San, there should be other victims last night.” He’s a dead person, not an injured person.”
Gu Xin furrowed her brows, how do you know?
Chen Pengyuan said,”judging from the traces at the scene, if this is the first murder scene, then other than the murderer and the deceased Feng Jinshu, there aren’t many people here.” This humble servant once heard from the Yamen’s coroner that when a person’s blood loss reaches a certain level, they will die from excessive blood loss. I’ve already heard from guard Bai that there weren’t many bloodstains on the deceased Feng Jinshu’s body, so I’ve also thought of this. If this person who had been out of school for too long wasn’t the deceased Feng Jinshu, then it’s even more impossible for him to be the murderer. As such, I believe that other than the deceased Feng Jinshu, there is another victim in this case.”
Gu Xin thought for a moment before she asked,’how can you be so sure that other than the murderer, there’s only Feng Jinshu and another person here? The traces at the scene couldn’t show that there were only three people, but there couldn’t be more. Maybe there were four? If there were four people, one murderer, one victim, and the other two victims, it was possible. I’ve also studied under a famous doctor for nearly eight years, and from the bloodstains at the scene, this situation is possible if two people were injured and bleeding.”
Chen Pengyuan was stunned.
Gu Xin said,”Bai Yi, bring your men and continue searching.” No matter if there’s one more dead or two injured, we have to find them!”
“Yes!” Bai Yi replied.
“Third miss, third miss!” At this time, fatty Wang brought a few people and hurried over here, shouting for people from far away.
Gu Xin looked over. Other than fatty Wang and Gu en, she did not recognize the rest of them. However, from the way they were dressed, she guessed that they were from the Feng family. They were even the head of the Feng family, Feng Shan Chang.
“What’s wrong?” Gu Xin asked when they arrived.
“Third young lady, this is mountain elder Feng, he has just arrived at the temple. Mountain elder Feng, this is Princess Xinxin.” Fatty Wang panted as he introduced.
Ever since his uncle became the prefect of tai state, fatty Wang was more familiar with tai state. He came here often, so he knew the mountain elder of the Tai State College. Before he got married, he had studied in the Tai State College for two years.
