There was no special request for a carriage to be brought.

Although his little pony is not as fast as the war horse, it still has very good endurance and can fully cope with the long journey.

It took some time to rush to the scene of the crime. This area had obviously been cordoned off by the Gaoling City patrol team.

It is worth mentioning here that this section of the road has been paved.

It is precisely because of this that it left obvious traces.

The carriage, which was originally running on a flat road, suddenly shifted its position and rushed under the road, leaving obvious wheel marks.

The next direction can be said to have completely deviated from the road.

Both sides of the road are basically bare hills with uneven heights, obviously not suitable for horse-drawn carriages.

The wheel mark was completely broken after extending for about one or two hundred meters.

But Zhang Peng's body was found farther away from here...

Of course, the body had been removed by the patrol team. Where the body had originally been, there was only a pool of blackened and dried blood, which made it hard to see anything.

"Where is the body?"

"Lord Gawain, please come with me."

While talking, Zhao Tao took Gao Wen to the temporary camp set up by the patrol team nearby.

The matter has not yet been investigated, and it is obviously impossible for them to dispose of the body.

Therefore, Zhang Peng's body was temporarily stored here.

After entering the camp, the stench that hit him made Gawain couldn't help but pinch his nose.

Although the temperature has begun to cool down recently due to the changing seasons, the climate in the west is still a bit dry and hot.

After a few days, the body had obviously begun to decompose.

After taking a closer look, I could see that the other party's death state was quite miserable, as if he had been disemboweled.

Fortunately, the face was still intact, and after being cleaned up by members of the patrol, Gawain could barely identify the other party's identity.

"That's right, it's Zhang Peng."

While speaking, Gawain took two steps back. The smell was really disgusting and made him a little unbearable.

"It seems like he was attacked by a wild beast?"

After all, the civilization of Wanjie is still in the ancient times. In areas outside the city limits, there are naturally wild beasts. It is not a strange thing.

Although Gawain only took a cursory glance just now, he could clearly see that the fatal injury was not caused by man at all.

When Zhao Tao heard this, he shook his head.

"Not sure yet."

Gawain was stunned when he heard this.

"How to say?"

"According to the information we obtained, the deceased left Gaoling City in a carriage while pulling a carriage of food. Judging from the scene near the highway, he was indeed driving a carriage at the time."

Having said this, Zhao Tao breathed a sigh of relief.

"But the problem now is that the carriage is missing, and the food that was supposed to be loaded on the carriage is completely missing. At the same time, according to our inspection, all the belongings of the deceased are also missing."

After hearing this, Gawain's expression became decisive and solemn.

Obviously, the beast does not know how to drive a carriage, let alone take away all the belongings of the target after killing it.

"So, you think it's man-made?"

At this time, Gawain was a little upset. He really didn't want to be involved in such troublesome things.

"Is it possible that a wild animal killed him and then someone passing by got greedy and took the carriage and finances away?"

"According to this theory, it's possible that someone killed him and then the body was eaten by wild animals that passed by later, isn't it?"

Zhao Tao replied like this.

Regarding Zhao Tao's guess, Gao Wen simply shook his head.

"impossible."

"Why?"

Zhao Tao couldn't help but asked curiously.

"If it was man-made from the beginning, then he had time to take away the carriage and even search for property, so why didn't he have time to dispose of the body? Even if he dug a hole and buried him, it would be far better than leaving the body in the wilderness, right?"

At this point, Gawain's voice paused slightly.

"Or does the murderer think we can't find the body here?"

The last sentence obviously had a hint of sarcasm. When he thought about it, no one would be so stupid.

Although Gawain is very out of tune at times, he is always flattering and flattering, and he is completely like a sycophant.

But don't forget, his intelligence is at least four stars.

In other words, his mind is much smarter than that of ordinary talented people.

Although this kind of nonsense is not what he is good at, once his mind is turned around, his eyesight will not go dark.

"The horse-drawn carriage originally drove on a paved road. On the road, the horse-drawn carriage travels more efficiently. In other words, it is unreasonable for the deceased to suddenly drive the horse-drawn carriage off the road and run to the hilly area next to it."

"It can be seen from this that an emergency occurred at that time. For example, a ferocious beast suddenly rushed out and attacked him on the other side of the road. The deceased was panicked and quickly changed the direction of the carriage.

As a result, he accidentally ran off the road."

"However, the hilly area is undulating and not suitable for carriages at all. It is estimated that after running for a while, the vehicle overturned due to the terrain, and the beast that attacked him was obviously still chasing behind him."

"Obviously the deceased could not just wait for death, so he began to run away desperately, but in the end he could not escape the pursuit of the beast, and finally died in the mouth of the beast."

"After one or two days at most, or even on the same day, pedestrians passing by discovered the overturned carriage hundreds of meters away, so they stepped forward to confirm the situation, and then got greedy and fled after taking away the carriage and the deceased's belongings.

.”

After saying that, Gawain breathed a long sigh of relief.

"That's probably my analysis."

Zhao Tao and the surrounding patrol team members were dumbfounded by Gao Wen's analysis.

The most terrible thing is that after this, they actually feel that this is reasonable and reasonable, and they can't find anything wrong at all, as if this is the truth.

And if this is the case, then this case can only be said to be an unfortunate accident.

Although those who got greedy and took away the carriage and finances were despicable, they could not be said to have committed a serious crime.

However, when the Wanjie Civilized Patrol Team investigates a case, evidence is required.

Just relying on Gawain's words, no matter how reasonable and reasonable he said, they couldn't believe everything.

If you want this theory to be true, you need to find two key pieces of evidence.

The first key piece of evidence is the murderous beast.

The second key piece of evidence is the deceased's carriage and belongings.

After all, Gawain has an important responsibility for His Majesty, and it is obviously impossible for the patrol team to keep him waiting there.

After obtaining the intelligence information and confirming the situation, Gawain was sent back.

Then they quickly notified Gaoling City and Oasis City, as well as nearby inns, and began to search for the whereabouts of the deceased's carriage and belongings.

At the same time, a team of 100 people was transferred from Gaoling City to search for traces of wild beasts in the hilly areas.

If there are really ferocious beasts that actively attack people in this area, it will be a threat to the people of the two cities and the construction teams that are paving the road, and they must be hunted and killed as soon as possible. Read "Lords of Civilized Worlds"
