2090 The Pearl Flower produced by the Xie family
Zheng Qiu did not find anything else on the body. He asked the Xie family to send the body back after noon. She planned to travel with Gu Xin.....
Gu Xin agreed.
Constable Gao was puzzled again. Princess Xinxin, are you sure you want to go with Xiao Qiu? Wasn’t she afraid that Crown Prince Lu would run into her? Crown Prince Lu’s military camp was stationed outside the East Gate. He had to go there every day!
Gu Xin and Zheng Qiu had no idea what he was thinking. They only instructed the bailiffs to guard the alley. Although the victim had been transported home, they were not to let anyone come here easily.
Gu Xin, Zheng Qiu, and the two constables drove the carriage through the narrow alley in the west of the city, passing through half of the capital, and arrived at the East Gate.
After they left the city, Gu Xin and Zheng Qiu looked out of the window from both sides. The speed of the carriage was also slower.
After walking for about 15 minutes, Gu Xin and Zheng Qiu saw the flower at the same time.
“I see it, stop the car!” The two of them said in unison.
The bailiff stopped the carriage, and Gu Xin and Zheng Qiu got off the carriage.
There were forests on both sides of the main road. There were indeed wildflowers at the edge of the forest. They were in full bloom and spread into the forest.
“Li dafei, Chen Xiaoli, you two follow Xiao Qiu over there. I’ll go over here and look at the surrounding environment. If there’s anything, send this signal flare. If there’s a situation here, I’ll also send this. Follow the flowers.” Gu Xin took out a signal flare that Gu Nian had made. It was a kind of sound that was only suitable for sending signals during the day at close range.
“Third miss, let’s form a group of two!” Li dafei suggested.
“No need. I’ve been gathering firewood in the mountains since I was young, so I’m very familiar with the situation there. I’ve even fought wolves before. I’m more worried about you guys.” Gu Xin waved her hand.
Li dafei blushed a little. That’s right. Every time he saw Princess Xinxin’s face, he would forget her terrible martial arts.
“Third miss, be careful. I’ll also protect myself.” Zheng Qiu did not care. She knew that out of the four of them, Gu Xin was the one who was worried about her.
However, it was not a problem for her to protect herself. She had a knife with her and was very familiar with all the body parts. She also understood the bodies of animals.
Just like that, the four of them split up.
Gu Xin walked along the flowers. She had good eyesight and could see the little thing from far away.
After walking for about 15 minutes, Gu Xin found a Pearl Flower, but it was a little far from the flower bush.
She thought for a moment, but still walked over and picked up the Pearl Flower.
The jewelry produced by the Xie family’s shop had a special mark, which needed to be carved with very good craftsmanship. Ordinary people wouldn’t try to imitate the Xie family’s shop’s Pearl Flower for such a small one, because the Pearl Flower in the Xie family’s shop was not more expensive than that of other shops. If it was some other expensive jewelry, it would be possible.
Gu Xin took out a handkerchief and wrapped the broken flower in it. She then looked around for the other part of the flower but unfortunately, she couldn’t find it.
She didn’t find the other half of the Pearl Flower, but she found blood.
She could not tell if it was an animal’s blood or a human’s blood, so she released the signal flare and prepared to get Zheng Qiu to come over quietly.
It would take some time for Zheng Qiu and the rest to arrive. Gu Xin looked around the area again and this time, she found an earring. After searching for a long time, she only found this one and the earrings were always in pairs.
