It rained all night, and they rarely saw such a heavy rain in Hualang, I don't know if it was God to make up for the previous drought in Huainan City.

It's just that even if you have to make up for it, it's really ruthless enough to make up so much at once.

Fortunately, after dawn, the rain stopped, and the whole mid-spring became much more beautiful, and when I opened the door, there was the smell of flowers and the smell of earth, and everything seemed to be beautiful, and everything was really beautiful.

And for such a beautiful day, Wen Meng wanted nothing more than relaxation, they wanted to walk around, but just as they were about to walk around, a servant hurriedly came to report that someone had found a corpse outside the city.

This murder case is a bit disappointing, and it makes Hua Lang feel even more unhappy Why is this Sima Guang is also the same as Bao Zheng and Tong Zhuo, who comes to him whenever there is a murder, don't they know that they are a private detective, and they need money to solve the case?

Despite thinking so, Hua Lang and the others hurried to the scene of the murder.

The scene of the murder was five miles east of Huainan City, where there was a stream, and the body was less than 100 meters away from the stream.

This morning, an old man came out to pick up a branch that had been broken by the wind and rain, and found it in that place by chance, and now the old man's expression was still in a trance, thinking that even if he had lived a long time, he still had an indescribable fear of the corpse.

When Hua Lang and the others came to the scene of the murder, Sima Guang had already arrived with the officials, and after he saw Hua Lang, he hurriedly greeted him, Hua Lang nodded, and then began the autopsy.

The body was a man, about twenty years of age, of average appearance, with a wound on the back of the deceased's head, which, upon closer inspection, was determined to have been caused by a heavy object, and nothing else.

After this examination, the cause of the deceased's death was also ascertained, but judging from the situation around the deceased, there were no footprints of other outsiders around the deceased, that is, it is certain that the deceased was killed when it was raining heavily, and this time period was too long, so after using his knowledge to deduce, Hanaro thought that the deceased should have been killed not long after the heavy rain yesterday and before dark.

And at this time, Hua Lang suddenly felt that this person was very familiar, when carefully cleaned the sludge on the face of the deceased, Hua Lang found that he had seen this deceased, just yesterday when they stayed under the eaves to avoid the rain, at that time the deceased was also sheltering from the rain, he seemed very anxious, several times hated to rush into the rain, but a person like him, how could he suddenly die?

Yin Wuxian and Wen Meng didn't notice this person, because they didn't consciously pay attention to and think about many things like Hua Lang, and when Hua Lang said these things, everyone had several questions in their hearts, who killed this man?

Was he killed after running out of the city in the rain?

What is he doing out of town?

After having these questions in his heart, some things are easier to do, first of all, Hua Lang asked Sima Guang to send someone to find out the identity of the deceased, since he ran from the city to the outside of the city, maybe there are many people in Huainan City who know him, and his home may also be outside the city.

Knowing this, it shouldn't be a big problem to find out the identity of the deceased.

And after this order, the next thing they have to do is to search around to see if they can find some clues, although the place where the deceased died, but this does not mean that it is the scene of the first murder, maybe the murderer will remove the body after killing someone.

Sima Guang took people back to Huainan City to look for people who knew the deceased, and Hualang and they searched for the creek seriously, so after walking for a cup of tea, they found that there was a family not far from the creek, the family was built on the side of the stream, very simple, in the early sunny day after the wind and rain, the hut looked very elegant, as if it was in the painting.

And just as everyone was staring at the hut, the door of the hut suddenly opened, and then a young man came out of it, and as soon as the young man went out, he saw Hua Lang and the others, he looked a little surprised, and hurriedly asked, "...... Who are you? ”

The young man's expression was not very abnormal, Hua Lang bowed his hand to the man, and asked, "There was a murder not far from your house, we are here to investigate, did you find anything unusual last night?" ”

The man thought for a moment and shook his head: "No, I didn't hear anything last night when the wind and rain were so strong." ”

Seeing the young man's reaction like this, Hua Lang frowned slightly, he felt that this young man's reaction was too calm, generally speaking, after he said that there was a murder not far from here, most of the others would be surprised, and then say something in horror, there was a murder? But the man just thought about it, and then said that he didn't hear anything.

This young man must have known something, but he refused to say.

But I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to ask anything, and in the end, after thinking about it, Hua Lang felt that he couldn't ask anything if he continued to stay here and ask, so it was better to leave and look elsewhere, and as for this young man, send someone to spy on him.

After Wei Yi gave up, Hua Lang immediately took people away, and not long after leaving, a servant was secretly watched.

They walked a long way along the creek, but after walking like this for a long time, they didn't see anything suspicious, and a heavy rain last night had destroyed many clues, and it was obviously impossible to find out something through these clues.

Therefore, everyone can only hope with Sima Guang, if Sima Guang can find people who know the deceased, maybe start from those people, and it is not necessary to find something.

When the wind blew and warmed up, everyone returned to Huainan City, and about in the afternoon, a servant hurriedly came and said that they had found someone who knew the deceased.

From the mouths of the officials, Hua Lang and the others temporarily knew some information about the deceased, and as for other specific matters, they had to go to the government office to inquire about the insiders.

As far as the official told Hua Lang, Hua Lang and they knew that the deceased's name was Sun Zihao, and he worked as a companion in an inn in Huainan City called Sanbei Pour, and his family lived outside the city, but they didn't know where he lived outside the city.

And like what the deceased's previous conduct was, and what it had to do with everyone, it is impossible to know, and all this, after they go to the mansion, ask the person who knows, and the person who knows is Xu Sanbei, the owner of the Three Cups Pour Inn.
