Chapter 260 Bones
At ten o'clock in the evening, Qin Huairu took a bag of white flour and planned to go to Pigeon Market to exchange it for corn flour. There was no other way. For safety reasons, she wrapped herself tightly.
After she walked out for a while, Wang Xiaohu also walked out.
Cao Yun received news from Zhang He, saying that it was related to Han Yitian. Of course Wang Xiaohu had to find out what happened.
The news spread by Zhang He means that Han Yitian has already met with Captain Lu, Ding Li and others.
When Lu Zhixiang died last time, Wang Xiaohu thought that Captain Lu and Ding Li were just ordinary old men, but he didn't expect that they also had great backgrounds. It turned out that those who survived in troubled times were not simple.
From a personal point of view, Wang Xiaohu does not want these two people to interfere in Han Yitian's affairs. After all, after the incident with Lu Zhixiang, quite a few people died from the two families. If another wave comes, the whole family might be wiped out.
Came to Pigeon City.
Cao Yun is very famous in this area. He helps people move goods during the day and runs errands and provides security in Pigeon City at night. He is also a well-known person.
Wang Xiaohu turned east and west and came to the river.
"Do informants like to talk in places like this? Aren't you afraid of being sucked dry by mosquitoes?" Wang Xiaohu looked at the fishing rods by the river and thought he knew how to choose a place.
"This place is relatively secluded, and ordinary people won't come here. It's safe to chat here." After Cao Yun finished speaking, he slapped his arm, and it was another mosquito.
"Hurry up, I need to go back to bed."
"Don't worry, the news this time is very explosive. The four Han family members came back for a treasure, which is said to be the treasure from the former Qing Dynasty imperial mausoleum..."
As Cao Yun spoke, he began to slowly pull the fishing rod, obviously showing off.
Wang Xiaohu appeared behind him in a flash and knocked him on the head: "Why are you pretending? Tell me now, or I'll kick you down to take a shower!"
"Ah, it hurts. Why can't I defend against your attack at all?" Cao Yun was also depressed. He wanted to show off. "Zhang He just told me about this. Han Yitian and Captain Lv and Ding Li mentioned treasures in their conversation. They said they had obtained the two heirloom bracelets of the Lou family. They only lacked a golden key and a treasure map. The golden key is with the deaf old lady in your courtyard. They only lacked the treasure map. They didn't say anything else."
"So that's how it is, no wonder..." Wang Xiaohu touched his chin. Han Xiangdong married Lou Xiaoe for the bracelet, and came back to find the deaf old lady for the coffin money.
After all, she had been a maid in the palace. It was possible that she had done something shady, so it was not impossible for her to have gotten some benefits.
As for the treasure map, no one knows about it. Want to find treasure? Dream on. It's impossible in this life. Wang Xiaohu doesn't want to dig if it's not necessary. Things underground should be left underground.
Last time I went to Nanliu Village, I regretted digging for gold. Fortunately, the result was good in the end. I will not dig for it this time. Besides, I learned from Jinying's letter that there is something called immortality. Maybe there are rice dumplings in it. It would be a disaster if I open it.
"Oh my, it's so heavy, I've caught a fish!!!" Cao Yun suddenly shouted and started pulling the fishing rod, and he rolled down.
"It looks quite big. It's time to try some meat." Wang Xiaohu also became interested. The size of the fish determines how delicious it is.
It's strange to say, it looked very difficult for Cao Yun to pull it up by himself, but when Wang Xiaohu joined in, he pulled it up in one go, and the two of them almost rolled backwards.
Under the bright moon and starry sky, a figure was jumping in the air, just like the moon goddess.
Wang Xiaohu stared and muttered to himself: "I caught a dead body again."
A skeleton fell down and landed right on Cao Yun's head. Their eyes met and there was silence in an instant.
"Yue~~~" After a while, Cao Yun sat up and started to vomit, "So disgusting."
“Huh? That’s not right.”
Wang Xiaohu was also disgusted. There was almost no flesh on the entire skeleton, but not completely. It was as if someone had not shaved it cleanly with a knife.
If it was just a skeleton, neither of them would be scared, as this was commonplace, but the current situation was a bit strange.
"What's wrong?" Cao Yun kicked the skeleton away and washed his hands, but the greasy feeling made him rub for a long time but couldn't get rid of it.
"There's no smell at all, and it's so fresh!" Wang Xiaohu leaned closer to smell it, and actually found a special fragrance.
"Not good! The murderer is nearby, and the body must have been dumped not long ago!"
An opportunity to make meritorious service! This was Cao Yun's first reaction. It would be great if he could be rewarded with a job for his meritorious service. He had long since stopped wanting to be a temporary porter with no food to eat.
"I'll go catch him right away. As long as he hasn't left Pigeon City, I'll find him!" Cao Yun said as he was about to run away.
"By the way, send someone to report the case, and... be careful." Wang Xiaohu squatted down and looked at the skeleton and said.
"No problem, let's go."
After waiting for half an hour, Zhang Sanfeng brought people here. Seeing Wang Xiaohu in a daze, he patted him and asked, "What's wrong? Did you find anything?"
"I didn't find anything. I'm just surprised at this man's excellent knife skills. There's one thing I can't understand. If he wants to kill someone, then he has to do this... That's not right." Wang Xiaohu felt that the two veins in his brain had finally connected.
"What's wrong?" Zhang Sanfeng asked doubtfully. Although he was surprised at the murderer's special hobby, as he was well-informed, he was not surprised at all. After solving many cases, he would always encounter a few perverts.
"If there are only bones left, there is no need to come here and throw them away, unless this is..." Wang Xiaohu looked at the river surface, then looked at Zhang Sanfeng, and said in unison, "Let's go down and investigate during the day."
……
On the other side, Qin Huairu took corn flour and started to exchange it for food in the Pigeon Market. She thought it was a simple thing, but it was not that easy. Along the way, she met many people who were exchanging food like her.
However, they were all exchanging fine grains for coarse grains. It was rare to meet someone who came out to exchange fine grains for coarse grains because his children at home needed to eat, and she couldn't squeeze in.
She was a little depressed at this moment. It would not be good without an adult man in the family.
"Forget it, let's go back." Qin Huairu didn't dare to stay for long because she couldn't exchange food. She was already frightened, and she was also worried about her children at home.
When she left Pigeon City through the path and came to the alley outside, she covered her mouth.
I saw a man standing in the middle of the alley, slowly taking off his coat, revealing his muscular body, looking extremely strong.
"Tiger and crane! Come on together. I want to have a good meal today." Cao Yun didn't expect that his luck would be so good. He ran into these four familiar people just by looking around. Looking at the package one of them was carrying, he was sure that he had not found the wrong person.
