He ran back home in three steps at a time and told his parents what he had seen.

Following Xiao Cheng's discovery, the people in the village quickly gathered at the door of his house, and each of them followed Xiao Cheng to the woods with hoes, and then started digging.

When the excavation was completed, everyone opened their mouths wide when they saw the so-called "treasure" that had emerged from the ground.

This is not a treasure, but a coffin.

Everyone searched around the woods carefully, but found no tombstones, so they couldn't help feeling extremely suspicious about the sudden coffin.

A few young and bold villagers walked up to the coffin and opened the lid together. Unexpectedly, there was a burning smell coming out of their nostrils. Everyone looked inside the coffin and were stunned.

One of them shouted, "There's a charred corpse inside!"

Chapter 57 This Wasn't an Accident

Following the shout, a small number of villagers present scrambled out of the woods because of the shout, and even the few bold young people took a few steps back because of the shout, away from the coffin.

Everyone gathered together and looked at each other, and they all saw panic from each other's faces. The timid villagers were trembling and pale because of the sudden appearance of the coffin and charred corpse.

Except for the chirping of insects that can be heard all the time, the whole forest is very quiet. Although there are more than 20 villagers around, no one dares to speak first.

In such a hidden forest, no one can guess how the coffin and charred corpse appeared here, nor can they imagine that such a horrible thing would happen in the village where they have lived for so many years.

The sound of the wind made the leaves in the forest rustle, which made people feel chilly, and at the same time awakened everyone's reason.

What was found in the woods is not a coincidence, and it is unlikely to be a suicide, and it is very likely to be a premeditated murder.Although the villagers are simple, everyone knows that this kind of thing is unusual, and it is impossible to just let it be buried in the ground.

"This matter must be told to the village chief, let him decide." One of the villagers said.

As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd began to discuss again, and human voices appeared again in the originally silent woods.

At this time, Xiao Cheng hid behind his father, holding his father's arm tightly. For what he saw today, he, a ten-year-old child, was already frightened and at a loss.

After the villagers left, Xiao Cheng was still afraid. Although he received the condolences of the villagers, it still caused a lot of psychological shadow. place to play.

After the police station in Qin City received the report from the village chief, Officer Song Yuansong brought a number of police officers to the scene to investigate and collect some important evidence.

The police sealed off the scene, and the villagers could only stand and watch from a distance, and no one could get close.

Song Yuan frowned deeply, and he said to one of the police officers: "Check and see if there are any suspicious things around the forest, such as footprints, murder weapons, etc."

After the policeman nodded in agreement, he walked into the woods to search around.

Song Yuan walked back and forth at the scene of the crime, constantly thinking about some suspicious person who appeared in this town recently.He looked down at his feet and saw that the ground was wet.

The sun rose and melted the snow on the ground.He thought that if there were any footprints before, they would have been washed away by noon, and it was unlikely that any traces would be left.

He sighed deeply.

Sure enough, his guess was right. Several police officers reported that they couldn't find any footprints, and they couldn't even find the murder weapon. They didn't know whether the deceased was burned alive or killed in other places first, and then transported here for burial. .

"Didn't you find any hard objects, such as stones?" Song Yuan asked.

"Officer Song, except for some small stones and sand, we couldn't find any stones or hard objects that could be used as murder weapons. However, we found a match at the scene."

The police officer handed Song Yuan the match he had found.

Song Yuan took the match and examined it carefully, and saw that the head of the match had been scorched black.It was just an ordinary match, nothing special about it.

"I guess the murderer used matches to light the fire, not a lighter or anything like that." Song Yuan said.

He walked out of the crime scene while other police officers continued their search.According to the news received, the person who found the coffin was a ten-year-old child named Xiao Cheng. He saw that the child was standing in the distance and staring blankly at them.

Song Yuan smiled, walked slowly to Xiao Cheng, squatted down, and looked at him.

Xiao Cheng has not recovered from the fright just now, and now he sees a policeman in blue uniform squatting in front of him, thinking in his little head that this is the police uncle he saw on TV.

He thought that the police uncle was here to catch bad guys, but he was not a bad guy, so why did he come here.

"Uncle, I'm not a bad person, and I haven't done anything bad." Xiao Cheng said, with fear in his immature voice.

Song Yuan smiled at him again, reached out to stroke his hair, and said softly, "Son, don't be afraid. Uncle didn't come to arrest you. You are a good boy. Uncle just wants to ask you some questions."

Xiaocheng's father said beside him: "Xiaocheng, didn't you say that you would become a policeman when you grow up? Now you are scared after seeing the policeman uncle?"
