Chapter 1616 True Identity
Chapter 1616 True Identity
Li Zaibiao was not at the inn when the six bodies were brought back from the mountains.
Now it was pitch black all around, and when he saw the tragic corpses in the light, his heart skipped a beat even though he had been on the battlefield and seen dead people.
Yan Ruyu was silent for a moment, then spoke slowly: "Li Zaibiao, take a look at this corpse and identify its features."
She didn't say it explicitly, but Li Zaibiao got the hint and something clicked in his head.
He wanted to say "No way?" but his lips moved and no sound came out.
He knew in his heart that Yan Ruyu would not let him see it if she didn't have a clue and was sure.
His heart was pounding, he gritted his teeth and went to check the body.
He couldn't see the bones, but he could see the knife wound on the shoulder and the arrow wound on the leg.
First look at your right shoulder, hold your breath, pinch the blood-soaked clothes with your fingers, and make up your mind!
Looking closely, I saw that although there was a lot of blood on the skin, there was no scar!
Li Zaibiao's heart suddenly seemed to be lifted up from the bottom of the valley, and he burst into great joy.
When I look at the scars on my legs again, I feel a lot more relieved.
The scar on my friend's right shoulder definitely exists. He remembers it very clearly. It happened before they separated. Once they were robbed. They were both young and full of energy at that time. How could they be threatened?
They fought back, and his friend was stabbed in the shoulder while trying to protect him.
Looking at the scar on my leg, there is none.
Li Zaibiao let out a light breath and said to the corpse in his heart: I'm sorry.
"My Lord, Princess, he is not my friend."
While Yan Ruyu was examining the body, she also switched her eyes to look at the arm of the corpse. According to what Li Zaibiao had said before, his friend's left arm had been injured some time ago.
It was because of this that she recalled the first time she saw the six corpses. One of them had a broken arm, which was recently broken and was also the left arm.
In addition, Li Zaibiao's friend is a martial artist and has calluses on his hands. His living conditions are average and the skin on his hands is rough, which also fits the description.
If the knife scar on the shoulder and the arrow scar on the leg match, then the identity of this corpse can be determined.
But now, Li Zaibiao said, it hasn't.
Huo Changhe looked at Yan Ruyu. Yan Ruyu frowned slightly and was still looking at the corpse, seeming a little confused.
"Yu'er?"
Yan Ruyu retracted her gaze: "My Lord, something is wrong."
"How to say?"
Yan Ruyu whispered, "The last time we came here, I remember clearly that the broken bones of this corpse were in the left arm, but now, the left arm bones are intact."
She was moved and looked at the right arm of the corpse again. It was indeed a newly broken bone that had not healed well yet.
"Lee Jae-pyo, look at his left shoulder and left leg."
Li Zaibiao's joy froze and he felt inexplicably nervous. Following Yan Ruyu's instructions, he quickly checked his left shoulder and left leg.
Upon checking, I found they were all there.
Knife wounds, arrow wounds, every one of them.
Li Zaibiao felt dizzy. The shape of the scar was the same as his friend's.
but……
"Princess, it is true... but I remember it very clearly. He was injured on his right shoulder, not on his left. The same thing happened on his leg. He was shot by an arrow when he was escorting a caravan. When we met a few days ago, he talked about this incident and he even let me see it."
"There's absolutely no mistake about it," Lee Jae-pyo added.
After Yan Ruyu heard what he said, she did not say anything for a while, nor did she refute.
Look around you and see what's around you.
When she saw the fences around her, Yan Ruyu's eyes narrowed slightly.
Following her gaze, Huo Changhe also walked to the side in surprise, pointed at the fence and said, "Here."
"Yu'er, do you remember? The last time we came here, my scabbard was not paying attention and hit one of the longer wooden sticks."
"Yes, that's true," Yan Ruyu nodded, pointed at the wood, and looked at the other side, "I remember that the wooden strip was on the left at that time."
"That's right, now," Huo Changhe pointed without saying anything.
Yinding's eyes widened: "Now it's running to the right!"
"What's going on?" Li Zaibiao's face turned pale.
"The fence can be moved at will," he said with a little hope, "but scars can't be moved, right?"
Yan Ruyu shook the flashlight and moved the light to another corpse.
One of the female corpses had a scratched face and half of her left ear was missing, with a silver earring on her right ear.
After Yan Ruyu performed the autopsy for the first time, she recorded it on paper.
The female corpse is missing the right ear, and the earring is on the left ear.
Yan Ruyu's heart skipped a beat: "Something is wrong here, it seems that everything in my left hand is mirrored."
Li Zaibiao said in a confused tone: "What is... mirror image?"
"It's just like looking in a mirror," Yinding explained. "When you look in a mirror, left and right are reversed."
Huo Changhe looked into the distance. The moonlight was shining gently, and everything was shrouded in a faint silver light, mysterious and a little weird.
“Not everything.” He looked closer. “It’s the things inside the fence that are mirrored.”
Yan Ruyu immediately said, "Get out."
Everyone quickly retreated outside. Yan Ruyu held up a flashlight and slowly walked around the fence twice.
I found a round, smooth stone. There were quite a few stones and small bricks around it, but this one was surprisingly smooth and looked a little special since it was sandwiched in the middle.
Yan Ruyu took out the dagger without touching it with her hands and poked it with the tip of the knife.
With this push, several wooden sticks nearby also moved.
The ground seemed to come alive, some long ones were sucked down, and some short ones were pushed up.
Huo Changhe immediately pulled Yan Ruyu behind him to block him and watched the changes around him vigilantly.
Yinding exclaimed, "Look, it's changed!"
The fence wall changed, and the scenery in front of me seemed to move very quickly for an instant.
Li Zaibiao couldn't describe the feeling, it was like he was dizzy, as if something whizzed past his eyes.
It's just a blink of an eye. If you're distracted, you won't notice it at all.
"Go and have a look again."
Yan Ruyu looked at Li Zaibiao and said, "Look carefully."
Several people walked back in. Li Zaibiao's throat rolled slightly and his fingers were trembling slightly.
Looking at the corpse again - in fact, before he even looked at it, he already had a vague answer in his mind.
As soon as I lifted up his clothes, I saw the knife wound on his right shoulder and the arrow wound on his right leg, and I couldn't help but feel a pang in my heart.
He closed his eyes tightly and said after a while, "It's him."
Yan Ruyu looked at the corpse's left arm and found that it had a broken bone.
Looking at the female corpse again, her left and right ears had returned to normal.
Yan Ruyu sighed softly: "No matter who did it or how they did it, this is the real scene."
Li Zaibiao's eyes were red and he clenched his fists tightly: "Who did it? Why did it happen? Why did my friend die here..."
Li Zaibiao suddenly thought of something: "Didn't they say that those six people were from a theatre troupe? My friend can't sing opera and rarely goes to the theatre."
"How did it get involved with the theater troupe?"
