"Auntie, this is Master Qiu's request. He said that the most dangerous place is the safest place." Fa Le said as if he knew Su Xiaolu's doubts.
"So this is ah."
Su Xiaolu was dubious.
"If Auntie wants to see Miss Qiu, that's fine, and Miss Qiu will cooperate with us." Fayin looked at Su Xiaolu and asked for her opinion.
When Su Xiaolu heard that we could still meet, she said, "Let's meet if we can. Everyone thinks about things from different angles. You might be able to discover different things if you ask."
Miss Qiuran was in the back room, and there were more than a dozen maids standing silently on the inside and outside.
Su Xiaolu and Fayin first checked the outhouse. They checked carefully and looked everywhere. The whole house was clean. Except for the little mark on the door, there were no traces left anywhere else.
Entering the inner room, Miss Qiuran was sitting behind the curtain, and she could not be seen through the screen.
Fa Le explained in a low voice: "Auntie, this is because Miss Qiu saw too many people, and Master Qiu arranged it this way because he was worried that some people would collide."
This allows those who come to investigate the case to ask Qiuran some questions without being rude to her. After all, she is a girl who has not left the court, and most of the investigators are men. They go in and out of the boudoir asking questions without spreading the news.
good.
Su Xiaolu nodded to express understanding, and they sat down opposite the screen.
Su Xiaolu asked: "Miss Qiu, are there really no abnormalities in your life these past two days? For example, have you ever gone out somewhere, looked at someone twice or something like that? Have you ever had a relationship with a woman?
Any contact and eye contact you have does count."
Why do you want to eat the heart, liver and lungs of beautiful women, and specifically choose people with good family backgrounds?
Could it be that if one comes from a good family background, his body organs will be more delicate?
No, it is more delicate. It is just a layer of human skin on the outside. When taken internally, it can only be judged as healthy or unhealthy.
"No, I haven't been out in the past two or three days. I haven't gone anywhere. I--I don't know why you chose me."
Qiu Ran quickly replied. She had said these words countless times. Ever since she was marked and reported to the official yesterday, she had been repeating and saying them endlessly.
When I don’t go out, my activity track is in the yard, where I go back and forth, dressing up, changing clothes, eating, washing, sleeping, doing embroidery, arranging flowers, playing the piano and writing.
Even the poems I had written and the semi-finished embroidery work were checked.
But after checking, no one had a clue.
Su Xiaolu and the others asked again, but they had no clue.
The room has been checked and nothing abnormal was found.
Fayin sighed: "It seems that we can only be on guard. We can't find any clues. We can only lay traps and wait for the monster to cast the net by himself. He has no choice. As long as he dares to come, we will do our best.
catch him."
With such a government and them, we can definitely catch him.
Su Xiaolu nodded, this was the stupidest way at the moment.
As the sky gradually darkened, everyone became alert.
The Qiu Mansion was filled with lights, illuminating the entire door. Miss Qiuran's boudoir was already surrounded by layers of fire, and there were many masters dormant in the darkness.
Su Xiaolu was also observing.
As midnight was approaching, a shrill scream suddenly came out. Everyone heard it and their hearts were shocked.
Su Xiaolu took the lead and jumped up, heading towards the place where the sound came from.
Behind her were others.
When she reached the top of the yard, she saw a figure flying out of the yard. Under the light, it was a fox-faced man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks. His hands had black claws, and they were dripping with blood at the moment. His mouth was full of blood.
, still holding a lump in his hand, he put it into his mouth. One was several feet high, and his figure was fast and urgent.
Su Xiaolu flew after him, and with a flick of his fingers, countless water droplets were shot towards the monster.
With that hit, the monster fell down and disappeared directly under Su Xiaolu's eyes.
Su Xiaolu frowned, he still had supernatural powers.
She didn't dare to be careless. She directly used the water power to evaporate, and countless water flowed around the narrow alley. As long as there were people, there would be a shape, but there was nothing, it was empty.
That monster, after turning invisible, had fled to nowhere.
"Auntie, how are you?"
Fayin and Fayue came and asked eagerly.
Su Xiaolu sighed: "If he runs away, he will become invisible."
Everyone's brows became more serious when they heard that monsters could become invisible.
But at the moment, they still have one more thing to figure out: why Miss Qiuran, whom they have protected with every layer of protection, is fine, but screams are heard from other courtyards.
In fact, the answer is already obvious.
But they still wanted to see if the one who was killed was really Qiuran.
Back at Qiu Mansion, a woman was crying so hard that the elegant courtyard was filled with the smell of blood.
A white cloth covered the body.
Mr. Qiu also sat on the edge in despair and shed tears.
It was obvious that the corpse on the ground was the real Qiuran.
Mrs. Qiu was immersed in sadness and cried until she died.
Jiang Zhengjun frowned and asked: "Mr. Qiu, this is the real Miss Qiu, then who is the person we are protecting at all levels?"
Master Qiu was dejected, as if all his energy had been drained. He replied sadly: "It's a maid next to Ran Ran. How could he recognize her? Ran Ran has obviously dressed up in disguise, how could this happen?"
Mr. Qiu couldn't understand how it could go wrong.
Except for him, his wife and the maid, no one knew about the exchange of real and fake daughters. They did it perfectly, so how did the monsters tell the difference?
"Mr. Qiu, the incident has happened. Please express my condolences. Please also ask Madam to tell us some of the truth about what she witnessed and help us catch the monster as soon as possible."
Jiang Zhengjun looked solemn. Today they didn't even fight the monster and let it run away. If they succeed this time, the monster will continue to harm people. If they don't catch it for a day, the death of people will not stop.
As for Mrs. Qiu, she should have witnessed it with her own eyes this time. She may know where the monster came from.
Mr. Qiu looked at his grieving wife, and finally said sadly: "Everyone, please come back. That monster is very capable. My wife must not have seen it clearly because she is old. She can't give you much help. Instead of wasting your time here, why not?"
Let’s check carefully whose girl is marked.”
He failed to protect his daughter, and Qiu Master was greatly shocked. His daughter was gone, and his wife was now in great pain. What was the point of saying anything else.
As for whether other people's women would be in danger, that had nothing to do with him. Catching monsters was a matter for the government.
"Let's go, let's go, you all, let's go. Why couldn't you protect my daughter? Why did you come so late?" Mrs. Qiu suddenly roared angrily. She burst into tears. She had no image at the moment. The pain of losing her daughter was too heavy.
She couldn't bear it at all, so she became angry and blamed them for coming too late.
