Xiao Yi was used to the occasional unfamiliar words from the woman in front of him, though their meanings weren't hard to guess.
He walked over, stood beside Xu Jing, and looked at the table on the paper, saying, "The officials think the same way. When each victim was discovered, the time of death never exceeded two days. In the meanwhile, the perpetrator must have hidden her somewhere.
Moreover, when the perpetrator assaulted the victim, she would inevitably make various sounds of struggle and scream. If there were other people nearby, it would have been impossible not to hear any noise. Therefore, I speculate that his hiding place must be rather remote, with few people around, or the place can block sound, so people outside couldn't hear, like an underground cellar."
