Chapter 1409 Dune Town
On the bed, Cobochin's injury was being sutured, and doctors and nurses were busy working on it. He was injured a lot, and not lightly, especially the knife on his neck that had slit his throat and was almost fatal. The most fatal thing was excessive blood loss. Fortunately, the manor had a lot of medicines prepared. These medicines saved his life at the critical moment.
"How is Sir's condition?"
The treatment took place in the manor. Cobochin's wives were there, as were the housekeepers and servants. The one who asked this anxiously was the deputy mayor. Chief, if both the mayor and Kobochin have accidents one after another, he, the deputy mayor, will be the most uncomfortable.
The doctor did not speak. Now is not the time to speak. The more serious wounds have not been completely treated.
An hour later, Kobochin was already wrapped in a bandage, and the doctor explained the injury.
After everyone heard this, they felt relieved.
The doctor added: "Please rest assured, Jazz just lost blood. Although the injury is serious, he will be fine. I will use the best treatment methods to make Jazz's injury heal as soon as possible."
Doctors and Instead of leaving, he stayed in the manor. The butler Ivo sent a guard to watch outside the bedroom. Deputy Mayor Bandela called several people who rescued Sir to understand the situation. Soon, from the face of 'Nisim' The half piece of the leather mask that was torn off was placed on the table.
……
There was nothing else to gain at the Yellow Sand Crossing. Everyone organized their team and headed west, preparing to go to Sand Dune Town to spend the night. Along the way, Binx was worried about the situation in Xisha City. He had no idea for a moment, so he could only shamelessly ask the people around him: "Mr. Epsilin, and everyone, what should we do next?"
The sand camel was walking slowly on the Gobi desert. Epsilin glanced at Binx, which made Binx feel a little ashamed. Binx said: "I am very confused right now. Jazz's safety is not only related to my future, but also related to the future destiny of Xisha City. Please tell me what you think. Anyway, I am very confused right now. ”
Seeing him like this, Epsilin didn't want to make him anxious anymore, so he said: "The most important things now are two points. One is to confirm the current safety situation of Sir Lurkav."
Binx Nodding repeatedly: "Yes, Jazz's safety The most important thing. Mayor of Dune, is there any Tongyishi in the town who can contact the city? "
The wind and sand were quite strong, so Mayor of Dune didn't hear what he said. It was the guard who was patrolling the town next to him who answered. The question: "Your Majesty, Sand Dune Town is too small, with only about a hundred households in the town, and the town's finances are quite difficult, so there is no expensive telephonic stone. Otherwise, when we send the body of Mayor Khalid to Xisha City, we will first tell you Reported.”
"That would be troublesome." Binx said: "Since there is no direct contact method, the only way to know the situation of Jazz is to send someone back. Alas~!" He couldn't help but sigh, and then thought about what Epsilin had said before he spoke. , and asked: "Sir, there are two important things you just said. What is the other one?" Determine where the mayor was killed, and where the mayor's accompanying officials and guards went," he said; "Mayor Khalid was on a business trip, and his route had specific arrangements. He must have seen many people wherever he went. As long as he knows where the mayor last appeared, he can determine the approximate location of the crime."
"Yes, yes, I am. How could you forget this?" Binx slapped his forehead repeatedly and said, "It's just that I don't know how the mayor's schedule is arranged."
Lucas was surprised: "You are. The Sheriff of Xisha City is not a small official, so how come he doesn’t know the mayor’s schedule? Didn’t you arrange the escort for his trip?”
Binx waved his hand and said: "I am the police chief of Xisha City, but the mayor and I are in charge of different departments. There is no need for him to inform me of his schedule. Although I have arranged some escorts, they are seconded. I It doesn’t matter what the mayor arranges. However, the official business trips of city officials generally have records, which can only be checked when returning to Xisha City.”
"That's right." At this time, Alice suddenly asked: "Mayor Khalid is traveling this time. Do you have any plans for the trip? When will you return?"
Although Binx doesn't like being treated by a little The girl asked questions, but at the Huangsha crossing, she loved Liz's words were clear and logical, and Epsilin also agreed with her inference, so she did not refuse to answer. He said, "I heard from Deputy Mayor Bandela that the mayor has a lot of planned trips this time, so A 21-day tolerance period has been arranged.”
"21 days." Alice added: "I remember hearing you mention that Mayor Khalid left Xisha City on June 6th." Binx nodded: "Yes, that's right."
"Then 21 days after June 6th is June 27th, and the time when the two guards sent the mayor's body to Xisha was July 1st. In the past few days, the mayor has not returned. , Aren’t you worried?”
"This is indeed a worry." Binx said: "Although our place is deserted, there are sometimes bandits nearby. It's just that when we go to other places on business, there are often delays for various reasons, such as weather, and In the past, when I accompanied the mayor on a trip, I would come back later than planned due to other reasons, so although I was a little worried, I didn't take it too seriously. And it’s not just the mayor. Generally, officials with certain positions will contact the city if they are out for a long time. This is a common practice and a rule.”
“You are saying that after the mayor left, he contacted the city. Have you been contacted by the city? When was the last time you contacted him? "
"You have to go back to the city to check the file, or ask the deputy mayor," Binks said.
After hearing this, Jennifer shook her head and sighed: "You really don't know anything about it."
"I..." Binx was very embarrassed, but he couldn't say anything, so he had to Move forward silently.
When we arrived at Dune Town, it was getting dark. The mayor of Dune Town arranged a place to stay for everyone, and then invited Binks and others to have dinner. Binx didn't want to go at first, but when he thought that it was the mayor's body that they discovered first, he had no choice but to go and socialize. While everyone was chatting at the dinner table, there was some movement on the street.
What came was a medium-sized caravan, with more than seventy camels in the group, equipped with goods. They wanted to cross the Huangsha crossing to deliver these goods to the east where traffic is more congested. This can Let them make a small fortune.
There are more than 70 camels and a hundred or dozens of people. It is not particularly easy to arrange for them to stay in such a small place as Dune Town. This has to be arranged by Mayor Labor himself. .
Looking at the busy scene of these traders, Jennifer suddenly thought of something and said: "Hey, such a large caravan sells goods from a distance, they must have a telepathic stone in their team. Why don't you borrow it from them to understand Mr. Jazz's situation?"
Binx clapped his hands: "That's right."
Jennifer said: "Just to get in touch with Xisha City, we need to have the corresponding telepathic magic circle..."
Binx said hurriedly: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, the telepathic magic circle at Xisha City Hall is right here." I remember it in my mind."
"That's good."
Tong Yishi borrowed it. Business travelers like them who travel here are naturally willing to do this for the local government. Binx relied on his memory and drew the corresponding Tongyi magic circle that was connected with the municipal government. When he used it on the Tongyi stone, he was indeed connected.
After some contact, Binx already understood what happened at the Jazz Manor.
"I didn't expect that Mr. Epsilin was right. The murderer was indeed lurking next to Sir. As soon as we left, he took the opportunity to attack Sir. If the butler Ivo hadn't noticed something wrong when he brought tea to Sir, I'm afraid..." Binx didn't dare to think about it. He was just grateful that Jazz had a good fortune and that he had a good fate.
