After getting up early in the morning, they found a teahouse and stayed all morning. While passing the time, the most important thing was to eavesdrop on whether there were any new discoveries in the Yamen. Although there were few people talking about it, they were lucky enough to have two
The detective sat at the next table and chatted about some official matters. Recently, the patrols have indeed been stepped up, because that
If these too bizarre ways of death are not investigated clearly, they will one day cause great panic. Furthermore, it is not an exaggeration at all to say that not a drop of blood can be found in the corpses. They are all lighter than ordinary people, so that
It was so light that you could feel it when you lifted it up. Even the most senior coroner couldn't help but shake his hands when he was operating the knife.
The two detectives rested for a while and then went out to patrol the streets. Their voices were very low and it was difficult to hear them, but Han Zhang and Ling Hu still heard them clearly. After the detectives left,
The four of them started communicating.
"Did you just hear that? The corpse has new characteristics that we didn't know before."
Xie Zhe glanced at Han Zhang, shook his head and said, "You'd better just say it, I heard it intermittently."
Ling Huan spoke before him: "It's a knife mark."
"Knife marks?"
It seemed that Mi Yin didn't hear it either. She and Xie Zhe both looked at Ling Huan, and she quickly added:
"Everyone has wounds from sharp weapons, some on the neck, some on the back... all were struck by swords while running for their lives. Two people had two wounds, and the other was penetrated through the body.
The corpse had only one wound, which was also a penetrating wound, killing him with one blow."
"hiss……"
At least it is certain that the murderer must be the same person. Could it be the shadow they saw at night before? Otherwise, who else could it be? And this method is to kill people, because just scratching them may not be enough.
To kill people. When they were thinking separately, Miyin felt a little uncomfortable. She felt that the space was narrower than before. Every time
, the way several people are used to sitting is basically the same: Xie Zhe is opposite Ling Huan, and Han Sheng is opposite her. And she is used to sitting on the left, and Ling Huan sits on the right. Today, when her right arm is placed on the table, Ling Huan is sitting on the right side.
The 铓 is placed on the left arm. Is it because the tables in this store are small? Was Ms. Ye accustomed to using her left hand before? She seems to be more flexible with both hands.
Amiao didn't know when she ran to Ling Huan's right. She was sitting in the corridor, looking up at Ling Huan, her tail sweeping across the ground. Ling Huan's right arm was placed under the table. A strand of hair came from
The forehead slipped, and she finally raised her right hand to pin her hair back up. A Miao suddenly jumped
She stood up and grabbed her sleeve as if catching a bird. Of course, the spirit body cannot have a strong impact on physical objects. Ling Huan just felt that her sleeve was caught by the nails on the bench. She then grabbed it with her left hand.
Pass the sleeve of your right hand and check if there are any scratches on it.
"By the way, how is the injury on your wrist?"
"Ah, it's okay!" Faced with Xie Zhe's inquiry, she waved her hand and continued, "I forgot to remove the stitches recently. I only removed them last night. It's almost okay, but I haven't been exposed to the sun and it's too white.
some……"
"Is everything okay?" Han Chang raised his head and looked over, "If you feel uncomfortable in any way, please tell us in time."
"must."
After saying that, she folded her arms on the table to her chest, with her right hand behind her and her left hand in front. Xue Miyin looked at her and then at the stunned Amiao. In fact, she might not have fully healed yet, but
I don’t want to make people worry. Since the gauze was removed, there might be a faint trace of blood that attracted Amiao’s attention.
There is nothing to do after that. There is a flower and bird market east of the hotel, which happens to be open today. It is said that in the seven days, it is only open on Fire Sunday and Earth Sunday, and today is Earth Sunday. At this time, people will bring the flowers, birds, fish and insects they have raised to the
Market class
When someone is destined to buy it and take it home, many outsiders come from all over the world to visit here. Outsiders who come here will definitely come here to see the excitement. So on the recommendation of the waiter in the teahouse, four people
I went there for a walk and it was really lively.
And although there are many people here, no one discusses the dead people in the city at all. Everyone is indulged in the joyous atmosphere, and all other trivial matters in life have nothing to do with it. The whole world is shrunk in the stamens of the pottery pot.
In the fish's bubble, in the bird's bubble
In the food bowl. Ye Lingyu really likes birds. She stops for a while at every bird seller's stall she passes. There are beautiful canaries, interesting parrots, smart starlings, well-behaved munia, and beautiful songs.
Orioles... She would admire each one for a long time.
And every time she reluctantly left, there was some regret in her eyes.
"Just buy one if you really like it," Xie Zhe said, "Don't they say it's easy to keep? It's not expensive either."
"No, no." Ling Huan shook his head repeatedly, "I can't take care of myself now, let alone buy them. If I were at home, I would still have this condition, but now I have no fixed place, and I have to endure hardships for everything.
And they are not Amiao, they can take care of themselves without worrying about anything..."
Xue Miyin did not dare to say that as soon as he entered the market, Amiao fished around in the fish pond and beat around the edge of the bird cage. After all, he was a carnivore, and his hunting instinct never dissipated. Those animals may be able to
Those who saw it and those who were lower down were frightened by the civet. Han Chang laughed and said with emotion:
"Girl, you really understand people. Have you seen the children over there pestering their mothers to buy fish? Many people can't stop their children from crying, or they are just trying to be cool and don't take the life of the little thing seriously. How to raise them?
If you don't take it seriously, you will just die, and you will feel that it is not a valuable thing. Treating life as a consumable is definitely not what a bird lover would do. They belong to the sky."
The three people all looked at him and nodded involuntarily. Finally, Han Zhang said again:
"It's better to go quickly, I think I'm hungry."
What the fuck...
The eyes of several people turned mean, and he quickly said: "Well, I mean I'm hungry and want to have dinner. Forget it, whatever you think... I'm too lazy to explain."
As the saying goes, the more you draw, the darker it gets.
A peaceful day passed quickly. In an inconspicuous corner of the street, they discovered a carpentry shop. In addition to large objects, there were also many small ornaments, mostly dolls' toys, but they were very interesting. Xue Miyin suddenly
Out of curiosity, she asked the old shop owner if he could give her three
Mixun tied a piece of strap so that she could hang it on her body. She dared to ask because there was an old three-stringed string hanging on the wall. There was also this kind of strap, which was made of straw and was very wide. There was a lot of dust on it, and the strap looked
It looks very old, but it seems to be of good quality and still looks sturdy.
Sure enough, this was something the store owner had owned when he was young, and it had a lot of dust on it. He suggested that Miyin replace it with a deerskin strap, which would be more comfortable and durable. Miyin refused because she was interested in a straw strap.
If the craftsmanship was leather, she would have found it long ago
She found someone else to make it. She didn't like animal products, and only said that hairpins and piano picks were other people's wishes. The shop owner twirled his beard to express understanding, and found a new straw ribbon. He only accepted
I paid for the labor cost of inserting the straps, so I can help you if you divide three by five and divide it by two.
She finished it. During the process of putting on the straps, the boss told them that when she was young, it was because of her good piano playing that she was able to catch up with her wife. And she was fasting and chanting Buddha, and she couldn't see anything made of animals. Now she leaves early.
, the children are not at home either, he just
He did this boring job to pass the time. After he finished, he immediately asked Xue Miyin to try to grind her shoulders. She put the shamisen on her shoulders, touched the delicate and tight grass belt, and nodded happily. After that, the four
I personally listened to the old man chatting for a while before saying goodbye.
After dinner, they walked back slowly. The whole day's peace seemed to be coming to an end, and there was still some warm light in the western sky. The weather will definitely be good tomorrow, and I hope nothing will happen like today. However,
, the more peaceful it is now, the less sure they feel. Doesn’t this mean that the mess will be left to the local people? Although they should be the ones to handle it in the first place... Forget it, don’t think too much, go back and rest quickly
.
They were walking on the street chatting, trying to get back to the hotel before it got completely dark. But when they walked to a remote alley and tried to take a shortcut back, a black shadow flashed from the high wall on the left to the right.
Very fast, far away
He was very close, almost directly above the head of Xie Zhe who was leading the way. Without saying a word, he jumped up and jumped on the right wall to catch up. Han Chang followed closely behind, without any hesitation. The two girls were stunned.
All that was left in the same place was staring.
Miyin hesitated for a while under the wall. She looked at the road ahead and saw that there was still some distance before she left the alley, which was not much different from when she came in. The alley was quite long. She thought about it and moved the shamisen strap.
adjust to a suitable
At an angle. Then she took two steps back and stepped up the wall. But just as she climbed up the wall, Amiao's meowing sound came from below, which sounded a little anxious. Looking back, she saw Listen next to Amiao.
He looked up helplessly.
"...I'll catch up first and let Amiao lead the way for you."
After that, she disappeared without a trace, and the ringing of the bells on her shoes became distant and soon became inaudible.
"What? How could I-"
Ling Huan stood there, helpless. But at this time, she felt something tugging at the hem of her clothes. She followed the tiny force and took two steps, and seemed to understand something.
Alas, this really feels like a blind man using a cane, but it's better than nothing.
As for Xie Zhe, his speed was not at all polite to that person. He and Han Chang followed closely behind and could see each other's back clearly. The person was small but very agile. His short hair that didn't reach his shoulders made it difficult to tell his gender.
.The sky was getting dark quickly, but the thief was more familiar with this area than they were. They were worried that they would not be able to catch up.
At this time, Han Shangyang suddenly waved his hand. The five fingers were naturally relaxed from the lower left to the upper right, and suddenly they stretched out a finger and pointed at something. Xie Zhe didn't understand what he was doing, he only felt the scene in front of him.
Suddenly he trembled, as if a hot wave of air passed by. The chase continued, and the stars in the sky gradually became clearer. But not long after, the thief crossed a high wall and was about to land on the eaves across the street.
Suddenly made a cry
He screamed miserably, as if he had hit something and fell down. He immediately lay down on the eaves, covering his forehead in pain, and tears were about to burst out. Xie Zhe stopped hesitantly, but Han Sang calmed down. He
I waved my hand again, and my eyes were empty.
Suddenly there was a wall on the eaves of Ruye. It turned out that the eaves were already the fourth floor of the building. They inadvertently walked higher and higher. As for why they couldn't see it before, the building appeared now. It was because Han Sheng used fox fire to create an illusion.
.
"You still have two brushes." After Xie Zhe figured it out, he cast a rare look of admiration on him.
"Okay, let's see this guy's true face first."
Han Zhang didn't look happy, but stepped forward and walked up to the huddled little figure. When he jumped over the wall and approached, his whole body suddenly froze on the spot.
"Who are you……"
"maple?"
Xie Zhe, who followed closely behind, immediately opened his eyes wide.
