Chapter 18: Chasing the murderer

Jiang Feng took off the diamond brooch pinned to his clothes, used his "dexterity" skills to pry the door lock in two or three clicks, and rushed in.

It was quiet in the dressing room.

The wax golem pretended to be Mrs. Lina, still wearing costume, sitting alone with her back to the door, sitting on an armchair.

The makeup mirror opposite reflected her figure with her head lowered, as if she was taking a nap.

When Gao Fei saw this strange situation, he immediately realized something was wrong, walked quickly behind the counterfeit, and lowered his head to observe.

Sure enough, there were bruises on the back of her head. She had been hit hard with a blunt object not long ago, causing her to fall into coma.

"This is not a wax golem." Gao Fei whispered to the two companions beside him, "She has a heartbeat and body temperature...she is still alive."

Jiang Feng reached out to hold down the unconscious woman and used "spontaneous medical treatment" to heal the bruise on the back of her head.

The woman let out a painful groan, slowly raised her head, and woke up. Her eyes were full of panic, and she screamed subconsciously.

"The voice is wrong!" Martin said solemnly, "This is not the voice of a soprano!"

Jiang Feng tried to persuade the frightened and screaming woman to calm down, but to no avail. Finally, he got impatient and slapped her!

Snapped!

A loud slap interrupted the woman's scream.

At the same time, pieces of solidified wax peeled off from her face, revealing her true face.

She is clearly Lina Bella's maid.

Not long ago, Louise bribed her with a piece of money and learned from her that Eva and Lina had a conflict in the dressing room.

This woman, just like Lingna’s body downstairs, had her face smeared with white wax, and was carefully made up to look like Lingna, making her look just like the real one.

Now the wax on her face peeled off, revealing the red and swollen marks of burns.

The maid was slapped and seemed to wake up from a nightmare, crying and telling her story.

After the curtain call, Mrs. Lingna returned to the backstage, ordered the maid to follow her into the dressing room, and locked the door.

In the past, after every performance, the maid would always help the hostess remove her makeup, so I didn't feel anything strange at first.

Little did she know that the real Lingna had been murdered long ago, and the mistress in front of her was actually a cunning wax golem pretending to be her.

Entering the dressing room, things started to get weirder and weirder.

The fake Lingna lit the candlestick, put her hands on the fire, and forcibly smeared the melted wax on the maid's face.

The maid was so burned by the wax that she cried and struggled desperately.

The fake Lingna became so vicious that she picked up a candlestick and hit her on the back of the head until she fainted.

What happened next, the maid who fell into a coma has no way of knowing.

But it was not difficult for Goofy to guess that after the wax golem knocked the maid unconscious, he made her up to look like Lingna, changed clothes with her, disguised himself as the maid, and took advantage of the chaos to sneak away.

"Wait a minute..." Jiang Feng suddenly slapped his forehead, "That maid outside the door just now... damn it!"

Gao Fei rushed out the door first, but the cleaning maid was nowhere to be seen.

"Damn it! We've been tricked again!" Martin cursed angrily, "This is the third time, I've had enough! I swear, I will catch that abominable wax golem with my own hands and burn it to a crisp.

Spread the wax!"

Gao Fei smiled bitterly and said to his girlfriend: "I didn't expect the wax golem to become so cunning. We were careless..."

"It's useless to regret now, hurry up and chase!" Jiang Feng turned around and asked Martin, "Where is your hound? Let him lead the way and lead us to hunt down the escaping wax golem!"

"Uh, sorry, I left the landlord to look after the house."

Martin saw her eyes glaring angrily and quickly explained with a smile.

"Miss Quinn, you can't blame me for this! In such an elegant place as the Art Museum, visitors are not allowed to bring dogs in... What can I do? But don't worry, my nose is as sharp as a hound's

!”

"Martin is a ranger with a 'survival expert' specialty. Tracking fugitives is his specialty."

valley steps

Gao Fei explained to Jiang Feng through the astrolabe.

"Very good! Now you are our hound, go ahead!"

Jiang Feng slapped Brother Martin hard on the back.

"Wow! It hurts... Miss Quinn, please don't be so violent, please? I don't envy Rogge now!"

Martin complained and rushed down the stairs.

Gao Fei and Jiang Feng followed closely behind him.

Martin ran and stopped.

Observe the marks on the ground from time to time.

Occasionally sniff the scent of cosmetics left in the air.

The three of them tracked him all the way away from the block where the art museum was located, and spent more than half an hour chasing him to the station.

As he approached the terminal building, Martin finally found his target.

"That's her!"

Martin pointed toward the ticket booth, eyes wide with anger.

Gao Fei and Jiang Feng immediately looked over.

An old woman with gray hair, holding a ticket in her left hand and a basket in her right hand, was walking towards the platform.

Hearing the shouting, the old woman turned her head and looked over, her face confused and at a loss.

"Martin! Are you sure that old woman is the wax golem? It doesn't look like it..." Jiang Feng hesitated.

"That's right! No matter how she disguises herself, she can't hide the smell of wax in her bones!" Martin said firmly.

"Since your nose is so sharp, why didn't you realize that the maid at the door of the dressing room was a wax golem in disguise?" Goofy flashed his guns, stared at the old woman, and asked Martin a question.

"Hey! My brother, there are more than sixty wax statues in the exhibition hall. The smell of wax is all upstairs and downstairs. You want me to distinguish the wax golems? Aren't you deliberately trying to make things difficult for me!"

Martin said angrily.

"That's true!" Gao Fei pointed his gun at the old woman and sneered: "Stop pretending, surrender quickly!"

The old woman screamed in fright and suddenly threw the basket over.

Gao Fei raised his hand and shot, shattering the basket.

boom!

The seemingly ordinary flower basket was actually made of wax oil. The moment he was shot, the broken white wax flew all over the sky, like a falling snow, obscuring his sight.

The old woman threw the flower basket, turned around and ran towards the platform.

This running speed is faster than my mother's rabbit, which is obviously not what an old man should do.

"Don't run!" Martin yelled and chased after him.

Jiang Feng was faster than Martin, leaping over the fence.

The light body was like a spider, adhering to the outer wall of the waiting room building. It flew over the walls and took shortcuts to catch up with the wax golem who was fleeing in disguise.

When the distance between the two sides approached, Jiang Feng freed up his left hand and flicked it with his fingers.

call out!

A piece of spider silk flew out from the ring and wrapped around the neck of the wax golem.

The wax demon, which was running wildly, was unexpectedly entangled, staggered, and almost fell.

Jiang Feng clung to the wall with his feet, dragging the spider silk with all his strength, trying to control the wax golem.
