The crowd listened, feeling a shiver run through their hearts, and many people couldn't help but look around in fear, as if afraid that Xu Jing's human-like beast was right next to them.
Xu Jing, however, looked at the back door leading to the backyard inside the house and said, "Everyone, don't be overly anxious. If I'm not mistaken, the culprit has already left, and moreover..."
She slightly frowned and said, "He left barefoot."
Barefoot?
The villager who first brought Xu Jing over was named Gold, and he followed Xu Jing's gaze. He saw several clear bloody footprints on the ground near the back door, which were larger and wider than those of a common man, and they looked like they were left by someone without shoes.
Judging by the arrangement of those footprints, while the person leaving the footprints had wandered in the house, several continuous footprints indicated that they went towards the backyard.
