Yang Guanfeng found a human hand in the underground space. The broken hand had been cut off by a sharp weapon. It seemed that it had not been cut for a long time. Livor mortis had just appeared.
"Can you explain what happened to this broken hand?" Yang Guanfeng asked Miao Qingshan as he held the broken hand.
Miao Qingshan did not speak. Instead, he turned to look at Miaoxi River.
"Patriarch, what's going on?"
"Qingshan, what are you doing?" Miaoxi River asked.
"I didn't do anything," Miao Qingshan said. "I don't know what happened to this broken hand!"
"You don't know?" Yang Guanfeng laughed.
"You are now an important suspect. Please cooperate with the investigation." Yang Guanfeng's tone became very serious.
"I didn't kill anyone!" Miao Qingshan's mood was a little anxious. He exuded a very dangerous aura.
The young man next to Yang Guanfeng had pulled out his gun and stared at the big man in front of him.
"Qingshan, assist Captain Yang in the investigation," Miaoxi River said coldly. His tone was inviolable.
"I didn't kill anyone," Miao Qingshan said. "Why should I cooperate with him? They are just outsiders!"
"You can't even explain this broken hand clearly!"
"What do you mean I can't explain it clearly? Is there a need to explain such a thing? The village …"
"Enough!" Before Miao Qingshan could finish his words, he was interrupted by Miaoxi River.
Ah!
The roar was so loud that Yang Guanfeng felt his ears buzzing. It was as if someone was beating a drum beside him.
"I didn't expect him to have such a loud voice!"
"I won't go." Miao Qingshan's body bowed.
"What are you going to do?"
Bang! He suddenly stretched out his hand and scattered a large amount of dust.
"Damn it!"
"Be careful, don't breathe!" Miaoxi River shouted.
"What is this?"
Yang Guanfeng decisively held his breath, but it was too late. He suddenly felt that it was difficult to breathe. It was as if a very powerful hand was strangling his throat.
Hiss! Phew!
The scene in front of him began to blur. His body lost its strength.
"Damn it, what's going on?"
Thump, thump. The two of them fell to the ground.
When he woke up again, he found himself lying on a bed in a wooden hut.
"Where is this?!" He sat up and touched his waist. Fortunately, the gun was still there.
He got out of bed and realized that his body was soft and powerless. His head hurt, and he was seeing double.
"It's that Miao Qingshan!" He recalled the scene before he fainted.
"You are awake!" A voice came from behind. It was Miao Qingfeng.
"What happened to me? Was I poisoned?"
"Yes, he's poisoned. It's the poison powder made by Qing Shan. We need the help of our Clan Leader, or else we'll be in trouble!" the Miao Qingfeng said.
"Where is he?"
"He ran away into the mountains."
"Ran away?" Yang Guanfeng was stunned when he heard that.
"Yes, yes, the chief has already organized people to go up the mountain to search." Miao Qingshan said.
What's the point of searching? The deep mountains and forests stretch for hundreds of miles. Where are you going to find a person hiding in there?
"How is my colleague?"
"He woke up earlier than you did," the Miao Qingfeng said.
"By the way, while you were unconscious, your colleagues who came here by helicopter had already searched Qingshan's place. They found another body in his room. It's not from our stockade. They are confirming the identity of the body."
After hearing the news, Yang Guanfeng was silent.
Now, it was basically certain that the person who killed people in the stockade was Miao Qingshan, who had escaped to an unknown place.
"Has Miao Qingshan gone deep into the mountains?"
"Yes."
"Can the people in your stockade find him?"
"We'll try our best, but the hope is slim," the Miao Qingfeng said. "The mountains are too big. It's too easy for him to hide a person!"
Yang Guanfeng didn't say anything after hearing that. What could he say?
He lay on the bed, thinking about something else.
The purpose of his visit was to investigate the stockade because of the 16 people who had died outside. So far, he hadn't found any clues related to the case. Instead, he had encountered a sudden murder in the stockade. Was it purely a coincidence, or was there a connection between the two?
"I won't disturb your rest. If you need anything, please look for me. There are people guarding outside. They know how to find me."
"Thank you."
"It's our negligence that caused you and your companion to get hurt." The Miao Qingfeng left after apologizing.
Yang Guanfeng lay quietly on the bed. After about 20 minutes, his companion entered his room. He was a little shaky when he walked, and his face didn't look very good.
"How do you feel, Boss?"
"I'm fine. How about you?"
"Don't mention it. I have a terrible headache, and I don't have any strength. I feel like I drank two bottles of liquor. It's so uncomfortable. I heard from them that Miao Qingshan, who attacked us, ran away and went into the mountains."
"Well, he did run away, but we don't know where he went."
"Boss, don't you think something is wrong with this matter?"
"Something is wrong?"
"I was thinking about it when I was lying on the bed just now," Yang Guanfeng said. "We came here to investigate the sudden murder in the small county outside. We came here based on the clues. In the end, we didn't find any clues for the case, but we encountered a murder. This time, it went very smoothly. We found the murderer. Just when we were about to catch him, he ran away!"
"What's wrong with this?" Yang Guanfeng asked.
"Anyway, I feel something is wrong."
"I also feel something is wrong, but there is no evidence," Yang Guanfeng said. "We need to pay attention to evidence to solve cases."
While the two of them were talking, another person came in. It was Yang Guanfeng's old colleague, who had come by helicopter.
"Hello, Lao Liu."
"Hello, Guanfeng," Yang Guanfeng said. "How are you feeling?"
"I'm fine, but my body is weak, and my head hurts a little."
"Have a good rest," Wang Yao said. "We found some things at the residence of a man named Miao Qingshan. One of them was a diary written in the local indigenous language. Some things were recorded in it. It can be preliminarily determined that the murder in He County has something to do with him."
"Oh?"
Yang Guanfeng and Lao Liu were shocked.
"What evidence?"
"In that record, he mentioned He County and recorded some things like experiments. He should be using the people in He County to conduct live experiments. I talked to Chief Miao, and he thinks that Miao Qingshan is concocting a strange drug and experimenting on people."
"No way, such a coincidence?" The young man was surprised.
"Yes, it's too much of a coincidence," Yang Guanfeng said.
"We have sent the record book outside for the nearest language expert to translate and read it."
