898. Footprints of the Imperial Prison

Follow Niu Geng all the way in, a passage that can accommodate two people in parallel, lit with flickering oil lamps on both sides, dim and gloomy, a few steps later, you can hear a piercing howl, both sides of the passage suddenly opened, and a compartment was carved out inside, surrounded by an iron fence with the thickness of a baby's arm, Li Pojun looked, only to see a person in a white tattered undershirt lying on the railing, his hair was scattered, his face was full of blood and filth, he was staring at the railing with his eyes, screaming madly, and he couldn't hear what was called, A foul smell hit Li Pojun's nose, so that he didn't dare to gasp for breath.

Feeling the foul smell, Li Pojun secretly scolded in his heart, even if the people locked up here don't kill or fight, they won't live long, this is simply hell on earth.

Further inside, there are also many vacant compartments, after all, since Li Shimin ascended the throne in the Tang Dynasty, the political atmosphere is good, and the number of condemned prisoners to death is getting smaller and smaller every year, and the bureaucrats are also treated very benevolently.

Before coming to a cubicle, Niu Geng pointed to a white-clothed corpse lying on his back inside, "Your Highness, that's Fu Gang, who came here in the morning."

"Open the door".

Niu Geng took out a piece of paper from his arms and looked at Sun Fujia, who said straightly: "Your Highness, you need to order and sign to open the prison door." Li Pojun took a pen from the side and signed it, and Sun Fujia also signed later.

Niu Geng and Sun Fujia checked the seal again, thinking that this was the end and that they could go in, but after Niu Geng took out the key and opened a lock, Sun Fujia carefully took out the key from his arms and opened another lock.

Li Pojun couldn't help but sigh secretly, this defense is really tight, it needs to be signed, it needs to be sealed, and there are two keys, plus the layers of guards outside, it is impossible to escape or rob prison.

But looking at the earthen wall behind the prison, Li Pojun's heart moved, and he asked Sun Fujia: "This underground prison is surrounded by earthen walls, what if someone digs a tunnel to escape from the prison?" ”

Sun Fujia tightly covered his mouth and nose with a sachet, and replied with difficulty: "Your Highness said that it was funny, there are stone slabs several feet into the ground around the prison, but they can't be dug through", Li Pojun shouted and admired when he heard it.

The door opened, and Li Pojun regretted it as soon as he stepped in, Ma Dan, Lao Tzu This is a new shoe, it's so dirty.

I don't know how long the straw mat has not been replaced, it has already been soaked in feces and urine, the scene of stepping on sewage and soaring can be imagined, it is too inhumane, think about the future prison to return work, to relax entertainment activities, it is simply too humane, but advocating humanization in Datang seems to be similar to advocating equality for everyone, that is looking for death.

Li Pojun finally couldn't help it, he took off the sachet from his waist and covered his mouth and nose, he was not afraid of smell, he was afraid of poisoning, it is estimated that some open flames can be burned here, there is definitely biogas, and the oxygen content is too low.

Seeing that Fu Gang, who had fought in the morning, was now pale and lifeless, Li Pojun was also a little embarrassed.

Although Fu Gang looks like he has a blue nose and swollen face, Li Pojun knows the proportions, in fact, there is no big deal, they are all flesh wounds, and they can't kill people, but now that he has been poisoned like this, Li Pojun always feels like he killed an innocent person.

In fact, is Fu Gang innocent? Not innocent, if he is innocent, how can anyone go to prison and spend his time to kill him.

"Fetch a few lights", the compartment is dark, and the light in the passage is already very weak here, and I can't see anything clearly.

A few lights came in, and the entire compartment was bright, and Li Pojun finally saw it clearly.

I saw Fu Gang's eyes spitting out, his hands holding his neck, his tongue sticking out, his eyes were black, the corners of his mouth were bleeding black, and his face was very hideous and terrifying.

Li Pojun looked down, his eyes were fixed, Sun Fujia was about to raise his legs to come closer, Li Pojun hurriedly shouted: "Stop, don't move." The voice was very serious, and Sun Fujia was frightened in this gloomy room, and he hurriedly put his raised legs back in place, and his hands had nowhere to put them.

Li Pojun leaned the lamp closer to look at it, looking at the messy footprints on the ground, his brows furrowed, so many footprints?

"Has anyone been to this room before Fu Gang?"

"Vacant for half a year, no one has been". Niu Geng replied.

Vacant for half a year? These footprints are obviously the latest, Li Pojun's eyes lit up,

"How many people did Fu Gang send in?" Li Pojun asked intently.

"I'm alone." Niu Geng replied.

"Has anyone else come in since?"

"I was alone, and when I came to check after noon, he was dead." Niu Geng replied again.

Li Pojun listened and looked carefully at the footprints on the ground, and then held back the stench and took off Fu Gang's shoes.

Comparing the footprints of the shoe on the ground, the straw mat was trampled and soaked, so the footprints were very obvious.

Li Pojun marked Fu Gang's footprints, and said to Niu Geng: "Take off your shoes when you are tired."

Niu Geng was stunned for a moment, looking at Li Pojun's actions, his eyes were a little bright, and he honestly handed the shoes to Li Pojun, Li Pojun took it and frowned, ahh

Niu Geng's feet are extraordinarily large, his shoes are also large, and his footprints are also very obvious, and soon Li Pojun compared Niu Geng's footprints, and there are indeed only two groups, which is in line with what Niu Geng said twice.

Comparing the footprints they had just entered, looking at the remaining messy footsteps, Li Pojun smiled proudly, pointed to the specially circled footprints and said, "These are the footprints of the murderer."

Sun Fujia's eyes lit up, and he waved his hand in surprise and said, "Your Highness is meticulous and thoughtful, and the minister... admire", as soon as he said a few words, he was choked by the stench, and quickly covered his mouth and nose with his hands.

"Take a ruler and tissue paper, and print it down." Li Pojun waved his hand.

Sun Fujia was stunned for a moment, and patted his head that was a little stunned, "Your Highness, this footprint has a stone tablet again, how to rub it?" ”

Li Pojun was a little helpless, this Shaoqing of Dali Temple seemed to be very unprofessional, looking at Niu Geng, Niu Geng was also confused, "That's it, I'll come." Is it still that hard to rub a footprint? It's not enough to roughly trace the size and graphics, but that's the only way to do it without a camera.

After the footprints were traced, Li Pojun pointed to Fu Gang and said: "Carry him to the inner room, don't move too much, don't destroy the original appearance."

899.

Niu Geng was tall and strong, and when he heard the words, he directly reached out and lifted Fu Gang's collar and went out, Sun Fujia really smelled the smell of this prison, and felt that it was difficult to breathe, and muttered: "Your Highness, do you have anything else to discover?" Why don't we get out."

Li Pojun was looking at the two rows of footprints, frowned when he heard this, and shouted: "What's the hurry, you are still the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and you are so lazy to solve the case."

Sun Fujia saw that Li Pojun was displeased, and he was busy pleading. Sun Fujia was bitter in his heart: How can His Highness not be afraid of smell, I picked up cow and horse dung and jumped over the swill bucket, and it didn't smell like this, how did Your Highness stand it.
