On the street late at night, Chen Che ran faster and faster.
According to his original plan, after killing Liu Agou, he would quickly flee the scene when someone noticed something strange.
This will leave an impression on the witnesses that the murderer is very skilled.
But now, he is really running away.
Because for some reason, he always felt like there was a sinister wind chasing him behind him.
"It seems to be evil..."
Chen Che felt guilty in his heart, and at the same time, he subconsciously took out the Sunstone hidden in his chest and held it in his hand.
It stands to reason that ordinary evil spirits would not dare to approach those who carry the Sun Stone with them.
But what's going on with that dark wind behind you?
Could it be that Liu Agou has become an evil spirit?
Impossible, how can it be that fast!
Could it be...
As he thought about it, a sudden realization came to him.
According to the memory of the original owner, there is a kind of person in this world. This kind of person may be desperate or may have taken refuge in evil spirits for other reasons, and is called a human being.
Evil spirits are afraid of the Fierce Sun Stone, but humans are not.
So the evil spirits ordered these people to steal some people's Lieyang Stones. After these families lost the protection of the Lieyang Stones, the evil spirits would invade them again and absorb people's essence.
It is said that some powerful evil spirits have hundreds of people under their command, and even formed sects.
Some of these people live together outside the city and live like bandits, while others lurk in the city and cooperate with evil spirits to harm people.
When you become a puppet, you will usually get some benefits from the evil spirit, such as money that the evil spirit does not want.
"Agou Liu is probably a human being, and the evil spirit chasing me is his master..."
The more Chen Che thought about it, the more it seemed possible.
If Liu Agou was a human being, it would explain why he chose to steal the Sunstone as a way of revenge.
In fact, his main purpose is probably to pave the way for evil spirits, and revenge on himself is just convenient.
It also explains why he is so rich.
"This bastard! He really deserves to die!"
Chen Che felt a sense of fear in his heart.
If the Lieyang Stone is stolen by an ordinary thief, the home will at most be at risk of being invaded by evil spirits. If it can be discovered in time, there is still a chance of saving it.
But if someone steals it, something will happen that night.
In other words, if Liu Agou had succeeded that night, there was a high probability that he and his mother would have been harmed by evil spirits.
…
"I don't believe what you can do to me!"
Chen Che clenched the Fierce Sun Stone in his hand, and at the same time, he performed the breathing and breathing method to release his own energy and blood as much as possible.
Evil spirits are not only afraid of the Fierce Sun Stone, they are also afraid of people with strong qi and blood.
Since this evil spirit still needs Liu Agou's help to steal the Sunstone, it shows that its abilities are limited.
Now, the most you follow yourself is to scare yourself.
As long as you are not afraid, it will be fine.
…
The truth was exactly what he thought.
The Yin Feng just followed behind him and did not dare to get close.
After following it for about a quarter of an hour, the dark wind completely disappeared.
…
Early the next morning.
Next to the drainage ditch next to the beggar's den, an old policeman with gray hair wearing a soap suit was holding his nose and carefully looking at the corpse of Liu Agou, which was covered in filth.
The old policeman's name is Li De, and he has been working in the Yamen for nearly thirty years.
Next to him, another young detective was reporting the situation.
"Boss, the deceased's name is Liu Agou, and he is a beggar nearby. Judging from the traces at the scene, he was probably attacked in the middle of the night when he was out for convenience. He was fatally struck with one blow... As for the murder weapon, it should be a short knife."
Li De looked at the huge wound on Liu Agou's abdomen with a very calm expression.
After being a detective for so many years, he has cracked countless cases.
For example, most of the fates in the outer city are caused by reckless people.
Just check the motive of the murder, check the witnesses, and check the alibi, and you can solve 95% of the cases.
"Who does this Liu Agou have an affair with?"
Li De turned around and asked.
Since Liu Agou was a beggar, the possibility of robbery and murder was ruled out first.
If it wasn't a robbery, it was most likely a vendetta.
"Yes, Wang Zhen from the Tianlang Gang stabbed him the day before yesterday... But Wang Zhen is still in prison now, so it can't be him."
The young detective replied.
"Oh? Then why did Wang Zhen stab him?"
Li De became interested.
"It is said that it was because Liu Agou had some issues with Wang Zhen's nephew...Wang Zhen was afraid of Liu Agou's revenge, so he struck first."
"Wang Zhen's nephew..."
Li De murmured, as if he had grasped something key.
At this time, the young detective said again: "Boss, it's not possible that Wang Zhen's nephew did it. I just investigated and his nephew's name is Chen Che. He is a scholar, has no power to tie a chicken, and is quite decent.
Where can such a thing be done?"
After Li De pondered for a moment, he shook his head slightly.
"That's not necessarily true. What about scholars? Wouldn't scholars kill people?
Not to mention that the hatred between the two parties has reached the point of resorting to the knife, and it is perfectly normal for Chen Che to kill Liu Agou."
The young detective was still a little unconvinced and added:
"Boss, I just asked the witness... The person said that the murderer kicked Liu Agou's body into the ditch and ran very fast when he escaped...
And Chen Che is a scholar. He fell seriously ill after failing the county exam a few days ago, so he can't do this."
Hearing this, Li De was stunned.
Kicked the body into the ditch... ran very fast...
This does not look like a weak scholar.
But if it wasn't the person Chen Che killed, then who was it?
"Hearing is false, seeing is believing. Take me to Chen Che's house to have a look... Anyway, he is the person with the most motive for committing the crime."
Li De stood up and glanced at Liu Agou's body on the ground, then waved his hand.
"As for this corpse, let's take it to Yizhuang first."
…
After arranging Liu Agou's body, the two went straight to the east of the city. About half an hour later, they arrived at the alley where Chen Che's home was located.
"Boss, this is the place."
After entering the alley, the young detective went straight to the courtyard door of a house and was about to knock on the door.
Seeing this, Li De quickly stopped him.
"Don't worry, let's deceive him first."
The young detective was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then nodded.
The next second, their expressions became extremely serious at the same time, and their eyes suddenly became much sharper.
As the saying goes, a thief has a guilty conscience.
If Chen Che is really related to this scandal, then whenever he sees the police coming to the door, he will definitely panic and expose his fault.
When the time comes, they, the detectives, will be able to see the clues at a glance.
After the two of them straightened their expressions, they winked at each other, and then Li De took the lead and walked to the door of Chen's courtyard.
Just as he was about to knock on the door, a few weak coughs suddenly came from the dilapidated bungalow in the small courtyard.
"Cough cough cough cough cough..."
"Cough cough cough..."
Hearing this movement, Li De frowned, and his hand that was originally going to knock heavily on the door was subconsciously much gentler.
