"But..." The yamen officer was still a little unwilling, "I have seen Si Licha's case before. At that time, you could tell whether the culprit was tall or short, fat or thin, lame or walking based on his footprints.

…”

"Definitely! Didn't you also mention the footprints? Here! Look around for yourself!" Mu Liuyun glared at him helplessly, "This month, the grass on this hillside is so dense, let alone a person.

Yes, even a bear may not be able to make any marks.

Okay, don’t be nagging anymore, you don’t feel uncomfortable under the hot sun, but I feel uncomfortable! Let’s go, let’s go! Come down the mountain!”

Mu Liuyun said he wanted to go down the mountain to leave, but Yuan Mu did not object. The group went down the mountain. At the foot of the mountain, Mu Liuyun bowed his hands to Yuan Mu and said, "Yuan Tixing has worked hard on this trip, and the rest will be handed over to him."

Give it to me, Mr. Yuan, please rest assured, I will definitely..."

"Sir Mu is going back to Taiping County?" Yuan Mu interrupted him.

"Exactly, I'm going back to Taiping County right now." Mu Liuyun replied quickly, figuring that the Prison Department's Yamen on Gyeonggi Road was not on the border of Jiangzhou Prefecture, so he probably discovered the murder case by chance.

So stay here and supervise.

So let's just say goodbye now. As long as I handle the case clearly and beautifully in the future, so that this man can't find any faults, then the two of them can say goodbye, and there will be no possibility of getting together again in the future.

Thinking of this, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's very good. Then I'll take the same car back with Mr. Mu." Yuan Mu heard his answer, which was expected. He nodded calmly and waved to the small carriage waiting there in the distance.

, Yuan Yi on the side immediately called the driver to drive over.

Mu Liuyun was startled, and almost jumped on the spot in a hurry, but he didn't dare to show it, so he had to try to pretend to be calm: "I wonder what Mr. Yuan is going to do in Taiping County...?"

"You're a little manager, is it possible that our master has to ask you for permission first when he wants to do something?" Yuan Jia glared at him from the side.

"Yuan Jia, don't be rude." Yuan Mu warned Yuan Jia, and then slowly turned to Mu Liuyun, "What's wrong with Mr. Mu?"

"No, no..." Mu Liuyun didn't dare to say anything. He quickly smiled with an attentive look on his face, walked over like a dog and brushed the dust on the carriage, "Then Master Yuan, please get in the carriage!"

Yuan Mu nodded slightly, took a long step, and quickly got into the carriage. Mu Liuyun followed him in, secretly annoyed in his heart, because his mother was always worried that something would happen to the single member of the Mu family.

Since childhood, I have not allowed myself to learn to do anything that is even slightly risky. If I had learned to ride a horse back then, wouldn’t I be so embarrassed now?

Thinking this in his mind, he sighed subconsciously and shook his head in frustration.

"Sir Mu, is there something on your mind?" Yuan Mu saw it as expected.

Mu Liuyun suddenly came back to his senses and said with a sneer: "No, no, I just think that this road has beautiful mountains and clear waters. If you ride a horse, it will have a different flavor. It's a pity that I can't ride a horse. I feel very ashamed when I think of this."

"It doesn't matter, if you have this wish, you can learn it later." Yuan Mu smiled slightly.

Mu Liuyun also laughed with him, but the string in his heart did not dare to relax at all. He always felt that this "Living King of Hell" whom he had only heard of his name but never seen in person was not a headless female corpse that he happened to stumble upon.

, and then take the opportunity to supervise the investigation process.

The current world is relatively peaceful. Although murder cases are not frequent within the jurisdiction of Gyeonggi Road, there are so many prefectures and counties. Not to mention new cases like this, even the old unsolved cases are enough for this imprisoned gentleman.

After carefully looking through the files, there is really nothing that can attract his attention to this case except that it has no head.

Unless what attracted his attention was not this case at all, but something else or someone.

Could it be that he was here for him? Mu Liuyun was shocked, but after thinking about it, he thought it was impossible. The gap between him, a small manager, who joined the army, and Yuan Mu, who was doing some criminal and prison work, was not as big as usual.

, on weekdays, the scope of his activities is no more than that of the Taiping County generation. As for reputation, he is still remarkable in official affairs. There is really nothing that can be targeted by him.

Maybe he was going for someone else, whether it was Taiping County or Jiangzhou Prefecture, there were more than one and a half Shangguan on his head. If the sky fell, it would be them who would bear it, so why should he worry unfoundedly?

After thinking about this, Mu Liuyun calmed down again and sat down opposite Yuan Mu in a serious manner, looking at his nose and heart as if he was in concentration.

But for some reason, he always felt that Yuan Mu's eyes were looking at him. When he glanced over, he found that he was not looking at him at all, as if everything was just his illusion.

Coming back from the junction of Donggu County and Taiping County, it was not a long journey. The little carriage entered Taiping County after a long sway. Mu Liuyun listened with his ears as the outside of the car gradually became busier and busier. He knew that this

When he arrived, he started searching for a reason to get out of the car. Before he could find a suitable reason, Yuan Mu, who had been silent all the way over there, suddenly spoke again.

"Where does Musili live?"

Mu Liuyun lifted the curtain and looked outside: "Sir, it's not far away. Cross two more streets and turn a corner at Hairpin Hua Alley. Go to the end and turn another corner and you'll be there!"

Yuan Mu nodded and told the coachman in front of him through the door curtain: "Did you hear me clearly? Go ahead if you hear me clearly."

"Master Yuan, you're welcome. I know Taiping County very well. I can just go back by myself. How dare I bother you to see me off!"

"It's not troublesome, but we are going to cause trouble for Mr. Mu." Yuan Mu calmly arranged his clothes, "I have been investigating cases in Taiping County these days, and it is inevitable to travel back and forth between the Criminal Division and Taiping County.

The journey is tiring, and we have no place to stay in Taiping County. I have not been used to living in outside inns since I was a child, so I can only go to the manager's house to make trouble for a few days. I wonder if Mr. Mu would like to make it easier?"

Mu Liuyun looked at Yuan Mu dumbfounded, and for a moment he even forgot whether he should be panicking or not.

If someone else encounters such a request, just agree. After all, it is not that there are no spare guest rooms at home. Although it is not comparable to the prince's mansion in the capital, there are still conditions for a few more people to stay.

However, Mu Liuyun felt that one was older than the other, and he knew his family's situation better than anyone else. If he brought a few outsiders back like this, he would probably be scolded by his own mother for half the night.

But this person seemed to be asking, but there was no hint of discussion in his tone. In his life, Mu Liuyun had never seen such an attitude of "asking for help from others".

.

I don’t want to, I don’t want to! It’s his grandfather’s! If I had the guts, I should vehemently refuse this so-called “request” that is mainly for customers! Doesn’t this make it clear that I don’t dare to refuse!

Mu Liuyun gritted his molars and cursed thirteen thousand times in his heart, but still had a smile on his face: "Of course I am willing..."

"Thank you very much." Yuan Mu smiled faintly at Mu Liuyun and blocked the "but" he had not had time to say.

The overall situation was decided, Mu Liuyun looked listlessly out of the small window at the streets passing by quickly, wondering in his heart how many days these people would stay and how he would cope with it during this period.

There is no way, it takes strength to offend the superior.
