This child may be the only living member of the family, so we can't let the whole family die inexplicably.

So she couldn't take the child elsewhere. If an official came to investigate, he might be the only breakthrough.

Of course, the safety of your children must also be ensured.

Jiayin put him in a clean area near the woodshed.

After those people outside put out all the fires, they ran in and saw corpses all over the ground!

Everyone was extremely surprised. These people were obviously not burned to death or smoked to death. Judging from the wounds and blood stains on their bodies, they must have been killed with sharp weapons.

Soon someone ran to report it to the police. There were patrolling yamen in the town who were responsible for the security of the town.

Because this place already belongs to the capital city and is in front of the Sangui Zone, this town is considered a relatively prosperous one. The county magistrate specially sent a team of government officials here, so the security has always been very good.

I didn’t expect that today there would be such a situation of being exterminated, and a fire was also set!

If so many people hadn't come to help put out the fire, and luckily there was no wind today, if the wind had increased the intensity of the fire or if the fire had been burned out the next day, it would have been almost burned to ashes, and no one would have known that this was a fire.

Murder scene.

As for why there is no wind? Good news silently hides merit and fame.

If she wasn't afraid that the heavy rain would wash away the evidence at the murder scene, she would have wanted to have a rain and put out the fire directly...

This place is not very far from the county seat, and it takes almost half an hour to go back and forth. Because too many people died, the government officials on duty here could not control it, so they went to the county to report it.

After waiting for nearly an hour, the county magistrate came over with a group of people.

By this time, the child had been rescued by a neighbor.

There were no injuries on his body, he was just choked by the smoke.

When the child woke up, he shivered without making a sound. A kind-hearted lady held him in her arms and patted him gently.

This child looks to be only six or seven years old. He is fat and white. He must have been pampered since childhood.

When I encountered such a bloody thing at such a young age, I was so scared that I lost my soul, but my face was pale and trembling.

After being patted by the aunt for a long time, the child regained his composure and cried "Wow!"

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. It would be great if they could cry. If they cried, it would mean they were not frightened.

I'm afraid that if I don't cry or make trouble all the time, I might be frightened and suffer from aphansia, and I will act stupidly from now on.

When the child's crying subsided, the county magistrate had already taken the widower to inspect the body.

It was determined that they were all killed with sharp weapons. They should have been chopped with knives, and most of them were killed with one knife, with someone slashing to the neck.

I think the murderer must be someone who has great kung fu and is able to kill people without batting an eyelid. His technique is so clean and neat that ordinary people without great kung fu cannot do it.

After seeing that the child had calmed down, he led the government servants to ask.

Afraid of scaring the child, she tried to be as gentle as possible and said: "Little baby, can you tell me what you know? I can also make the decision for you and avenge your family."

The county magistrate had just learned from the neighbors that this child was the child of this family. Those who died were the child's parents, uncles, aunts, and brothers and sisters.

The child's eyes turned red again after hearing this, but he was obviously sensible now. He held back his tears and stammered again to explain what he knew.

It turns out that three people came to stay at home last night, and the story begins with these three people.

Although there are many inns in the town, there are often not enough places to stay, especially during the season when caravans come and go intensively.

Many residents of the town saw business opportunities and built extra rooms in their homes for accommodation and to earn some money to supplement their family income.

The same goes for this kid's family.

At midnight last night, two men and one woman came to stay at home. The man was tall and had a beard, and the woman was wearing a curtain hat. A gauze scarf hung under the curtain hat to cover her face, so that people could not see her face clearly.

appearance.

However, she looked like the kind of lady she was wearing, and the two men were obviously the woman's escorts. The two bearded men were very respectful to the woman.

Although it looked a bit scary, since he was a woman's subordinate, the family didn't think much about it, thinking that it was understandable that the guard of the lady of the big family should be taller.

So just like before, they were arranged in a slightly better guest room.

The slightly better guest room in the house is the main room.

Unexpectedly, around midnight, several men in black suddenly broke in. They broke into the room directly, and without saying a word, they killed everyone they saw!

Until they found the three-person room, the two men fought with them.

At that time, only the child and his parents were left. Because their room was on the other side of the three people, they escaped the disaster.

His father tightly covered his and his mother's mouths to prevent them from making any sound, and hid behind the window and stared outside.

The children also saw it together. Two of the three men were highly skilled in martial arts, but they were struggling to protect the woman.

The two of them fought with the men in black for a while, then ran away with the woman, and the men in black chased after her.

When the child's parents saw that everyone was gone, they felt that it was safe, so they cried and ran to see if their relatives could be saved.

The child's mother was afraid that the corpse would scare the child and that the men in black would come back again, so she took the child to the kitchen and asked him to hide.

There happened to be a gap between the pot and the water tank in the kitchen, and the little baby hid in it so perfectly that he couldn't see it from the outside.

After his mother put him in bed, he ran out and went with his father to see if those relatives were still alive, and to help collect the bodies of the relatives.

Unexpectedly, he heard his mother's scream not long after, but it stopped abruptly in the middle of the scream, as if someone had interrupted her.

His mother told him not to go out, but he couldn't help but run out and take a look.

As soon as I ran to the kitchen door, I saw a man in black really coming back and killed his parents!

Then the man in black came towards him, and he was so frightened that he quickly ran back to his original hiding place and got in.

But the man in black did not go into the kitchen, but only carried firewood in the woodshed a few times. Then the fire started and he fainted from the smoke.

After listening to the child's words, the county magistrate concluded that the man in black must have come back to finish the work and wanted to destroy the body and eliminate traces.

The county magistrate frowned. This was obviously someone else's vendetta that had implicated this family. It was really unlucky.

Immediately afterwards, the county magistrate asked everyone present if anyone had seen those three people or heard any noise at night.

Everyone shook their heads.

It's a coincidence that this child's home is a single-family house. There is no neighbor on the left and there is an open space. There is at least one road between the front and back.

The neighbor's house closest to their house on the right is empty, abandoned and uninhabited.
