Gu Fenglin looked up at the marks on the wall, calculated the angle, jumped up, and tested it himself.
It's okay on the wall, I can barely put pressure on it, but as long as I'm fast enough, it's not impossible to climb the Tibetan people.
However, it is impossible to hang it on the roof, which seriously violates common sense.
He frowned, feeling deeply uneasy.
"His Royal Highness Shou Wang is here!" Following the announcement, Shou Wang strode in: "What's going on?"
Being woken up in the middle of the night with such bad news can't help anyone's temper.
So King Shou had a livid look on his face and got very angry. He ordered the prison leader to be dragged down and beaten up on the spot.
Gu Fenglin did not plead for the prison boss. Instead, he said: "If I had known that His Highness was coming, I should have come earlier."
King Shou looked a little uncomfortable and complained: "Your Majesty sent people to the palace in the evening to inquire about the progress..."
In other words, it was not that he wanted to hide it from Gu Fenglin and Meng Xiang and bring him to trial in the middle of the night, but that he was in a hurry and had no choice but to do so.
Gu Fenglin sighed: "I hope the jailer involved can be caught."
Just as he was talking, the people who were ordered to chase the jailer involved also came back. They were all dejected: "He died in an alley not far from here, with an arrow piercing his heart."
They are also the same crossbows as those used to assassinate Meng Jiu and Lu Jinni.
King Shou was very angry: "So this is the fish that slipped through the net provoking us? Search! Search the whole city! If your Majesty has any blame, I will bear it!"
Gu Fenglin did not stop him, but all the other staff in Prince Shou's palace rushed to try to dissuade him.
King Shou was forced by them to have no choice but to look at Gu Fenglin: "What do you think, the priest?"
Gu Fenglin said: "Your Majesty does not allow me to touch this case. Please allow me to retire first."
He turned around and left without any hesitation.
King Shou's eyes were heavy: "Prepare the carriage, I will enter the palace immediately!"
The long street is long and the night is as cool as water.
The sound of horse hooves hitting the bluestone road made a clicking sound.
Gu Fenglin did not sit in the car, but together with Old Man Gu and Mingyue, they simulated the walking route of the jailer after he left.
One person is walking below, and the other is hanging on the wall.
"If I were him, and I had just committed a murder, and I knew that my opponent would soon discover the truth and chase him out, I would definitely not go home, but run to a place where I could hide...
When running, you must choose a hidden place, otherwise it will be troublesome to be discovered by the night watchman..."
He whispered to Old Man Gu, and suddenly he stopped and turned around like a whirlwind.
This is it!
He found half a footprint and a handprint on the wall.
He gestured, and it happened to be the mark left by a person crawling here.
Over there, Mingyue also shouted: "There are traces here too..."
It was an old locust tree, and it was the season when the locust flowers were in bloom. Several bunches of delicate and sweet locust flowers had been picked, as if they had been eaten by dogs.
"It was the shooter who stayed here, and he ate the sophora flowers..."
As an old hunter, Old Man Gu quickly restored the scene at that time: "He had been waiting here for the jailer to come, and then shot the jailer to death..."
He ran quickly, followed closely by Gu Fenglin and others.
After passing through a large number of houses, they saw a discarded crossbow and several arrows shot into the wall.
"Here we are!" a guard shouted.
There was a man in black lying on the ground, with an empty quiver hanging from his waist, and two severed arms thrown not far away.
