Zhang Zong's mind was full of the Zhou family's massacre, and he didn't know when he fell asleep in the end. When he opened his eyes again, it was already the next morning.

After eating breakfast made by Wan'er, Zhang Zong came to the manuscript and opened the two jars in the cabinet. The vegetable seeds mixed last year were divided into two parts because they were the seeds hybridized with the two vegetables respectively, because he didn't know which plant the cabbage was hybridized with the mother.

The seeds in the jar are well preserved and each of them is full, which makes Zhang Zong feel at ease to put them back to their original place, and then comes to the yard to check the situation of the flowerbed. It is now spring. Although the weather is still very cold, the frozen soil under his feet has begun to melt, and some cold-resistant plants have even begun to burst out with some vitality.

However, it is still a bit early to grow vegetables now. After all, the temperature is too low, especially at night. If the seeds that have been obtained after a year of hard work are frozen to death, Zhang Zong has no place to cry, so he decided to wait a few more days before planting the seeds after the temperature really rises. But he doesn't know if cabbage can grow?

"Boom ~" At this moment, someone suddenly knocked on the door vigorously. When Zhang Zong came to the front yard, Wan'er had already opened the door. As a result, Di Renjie, who was covered in dust, was standing outside. When he saw him, he immediately said loudly: "Brother Zhang, the initial witness of the fire has been found!"

"Really!" Zhang Zong also showed an ecstatic expression when he heard this, and immediately walked quickly to Di Renjie and asked, "What did the other party say, did the fire burn from Zhou Futong's home?"

"It seems that Brother Zhang, you already know about General Zhou!" Di Renjie was also surprised when he heard Zhang Zong call Zhou Futong's name, but then nodded again, "Yes, the fire was burned from General Zhou's home. We found several officials near General Zhou's home. Although they were out for fun, there were servants at home. Some servants saw that the fire was burned from General Zhou's home with their own eyes. They even participated in the fire extinguishing, but unfortunately they failed and had to escape in the end."

"Assed to put out the fire? Did they encounter the murderer or found any clues?" Zhang Zong asked again when he heard this.

"No one saw the murderer. According to the witness, because it was the Shangyuan Festival, there were very few people left behind. These people usually had banquets in the mansion. When they discovered the fire in the Zhou family, the fire was already extremely fierce. Although they participated in the firefight, because there was no one organized it, and there was wind at that time, the fire quickly lost control, burning the surrounding mansions, and the fire eventually became out of control."

When he said this, Di Renjie paused for a moment and then said, "So according to my judgment, the murderer left immediately after igniting the Zhou Mansion. The fire was still small at that time and no one noticed it. When the fire started, the murderer had already run away."

"It should be that!" Zhang Zong nodded after hearing this, and his face showed a look of disappointment. After all, no one witnessed the murderer, which also means that it is even more difficult to solve the case.

"But although the firefighters did not see the murderer, they also found some clues, especially the first corpse we found in the gate of Zhou Mansion. When they broke into the door to put out the fire, they also found the corpse lying on the ground. It was just too messy at the time and had no time to take care of him."

Di Renjie said again at this time, "In addition to this corpse, the firefighters also found a lot of blood in the fire scene, especially the location of the front yard hall. At that time, the entire hall had already caught fire, but there seemed to be many corpses inside. It was precisely through these testimonies that we dug up the ruins of the hall and found a lot of corpses. Although most of them were burned, some of them were still preserved intact."

"Have General Zhou found his body?" Zhang Zong asked anxiously again when he heard this. As the core figure of the family extermination case, Zhou Futong's body must be more valuable.

"I can't say I've found it, but I can't say I haven't found it." Di Renjie replied with helpless expression on his hands.

"What does this mean?" Zhang Zong asked with confusion after hearing this.

"We found seventeen corpses in the hall, and none of them were problematic, but the only seventeen lacked a head and was burned very seriously, so it was impossible to distinguish. However, from the sword he held, we suspected that this headless corpse was probably General Zhou himself!" Di Renjie explained.

"Didn't I find a head without a body before? Isn't that head the head meant General Zhou?" Zhang Zong immediately asked after hearing this.

"No, Brother Zhang, we later carefully identified the head you found, and found that she should be a woman's head. After we dug up the ruins, we also found her body below. According to our understanding, this woman is likely to be General Zhou's wife, and his three children were also found next to the woman's body."

When Di Renjie spoke at the end, he also showed an unbearable look on his face. Zhou Futong's three children were all cut off. The oldest was only ten years old, and the youngest was only three or four years old, but they were all killed by the murderer. This shows that the murderer was either extremely cruel or hated Zhou Futong to the core, so he used this cruel method to kill his family.

"I won't even let go of the child!" Zhang Zong said with gritted teeth and hatred.

"Yes, after His Majesty and the Prince learned about this, they ordered us almost at the same time to solve the case sooner or later. I have hardly slept much these days, but I still have no clues related to the murderer." Di Renjie said at the end and said with a tired and bitter smile.

"Brother Di, why don't you take me to the scene to see it again, maybe you can find some clues!" Zhang Zong knew that Di Renjie came to him, so he must not only tell him the progress of the case, but also wanted to ask him to come out for help, so he also spoke up on his own initiative.

"That's great. Brother Zhang is going to work hard again this time!" Di Renjie immediately bowed to Zhang Zong and thanked him.

"Brother Di, you have to be polite, but have you had breakfast? Do you want to take a break with me?" Zhang Zong saw Di Renjie's face very haggard, and immediately asked with concern.

"Not to mention breakfast, I didn't even eat dinner yesterday. I just slept in the fire floor for a while when I was tired at night, but I couldn't leave for too long, so let's go to the fire first, just find something to eat there." Di Renjie said helplessly again.
