"Hey, I'm afraid he will come." Wang Zhe sighed after hearing this.
"Well, how do you know? Did you hear some news?" Lao Hou asked hurriedly.
"You don't remember? You've always been open-mouthed. What are you worried about?"
This is the conclusion that Wang Zhe came to through the analysis of his two years of getting along with each other.
Whenever Lao Hou says that nothing will happen to him, there is a high probability that something will happen. It is so effective that it is more effective than the city god in the temple.
Huh? Houshu was stunned.
"Bah, bah, bah, it's not allowed this time, it's definitely not allowed!"
"No, I have to go and talk to Xiulian and ask her not to go out for the next two days." Lao Hou ran away in a flash.
"Hey, this is love, which makes people in their forties rejuvenate. It seems that "Chunxiao Tower" will lose one of its regular customers in the future." Wang Zhe sighed.
Within two days, something really happened in Guobei County.
What happened was a family in the city. Not only was a girl killed, but her parents, a family of three, were all spared and died tragically at home.
The girl's death condition was even weird. She was pale, strangely shriveled, covered in blue lines, and had a look of despair and panic on her face.
There was a wound on her throat, as if she had been bitten by a wild animal, and there was a large pool of dried blood underneath her body.
In the past two years as a police officer, he has seen many deaths.
Those who died of illness, those who drowned, those who died of poisoning...
But the way the woman in front of me died had never been seen before. Looking at it like this, it felt as if something had been taken away from her body.
The girl's parents had their necks broken, and there were obvious purple-red palm prints on their throats.
Wang Zhe looked at the tragic situation in front of him and clenched the handle of the knife tightly with his left hand, his knuckles turning a little white.
"Why, how could it be like this? This villain should be cut into pieces!" Lao Hou was surprised, angry and worried when he saw the girl's death.
Wang Zhe's nose moved slightly.
In addition to the smell of blood, there is also a strange aroma in the air, which seems to be the fragrance of some kind of flower.
That scent was not from the three dead people, it should have been left by the murderer.
As soon as this case came out, everyone in the yamen became nervous. They realized that the "flower picker" had arrived in Guo Beicheng!
The county magistrate was even more nervous. No one in Guobei County knew that he had just married a beautiful girl last year.
This "flower-picking thief" doesn't care whether you are a commoner or a distinguished person in the county. He only targets beautiful women and will kill to silence you.
This made the county magistrate sleepless and uneasy.
Along the way, Lao Hou looked ugly.
"I'm really a crow's mouth!" He really wanted to slap himself twice.
"Stop blaming yourself. He would have come even if you didn't tell him. Lao Hou, go and find out if the women who were murdered in Lin County were all as miserable as what we saw today."
Lao Hou has been a policeman for more than ten years and has a wide network of contacts. He also knows some policemen in neighboring counties.
"Okay, I'll go find out right now." Lao Hou nodded.
Lao Hou went to inquire about the news, while Wang Zhe was wandering the streets alone, thinking about some details of the crime scene.
If you break a person's neck with one hand, there is no doubt that the criminal knows martial arts. In addition, there are some special things.
Well, Wang Zhe suddenly stopped.
He smelled the faint aroma, turned around and saw a rouge and gouache shop on the roadside.
"Rouge?" He thought of the aroma he had smelled at the house where the accident happened, and turned around and walked over and entered the shop.
"Master, what do you want to order?" the store owner greeted him hurriedly.
Wang Zhe looked at it and asked the shopkeeper to take out some rouge, gouache and smell it.
"No, it doesn't taste right." He shook his head.
The fragrance is very unique. Although it smells light and elegant, the fragrance is timeless.
"Besides these, what else do you have that is suitable for a man to wear?"
"It turns out that you want it, Lord Captor. Take a look at this sachet. Many guests have come to buy it." The shopkeeper took out a beautifully embroidered sachet and handed it to Wang Zhe.
The small sachet holds a fragrant aroma in your hand, and the taste is somewhat similar, but it is still diluted.
"It should be this kind of sachet. A "flower-picking thief" actually carries a sachet with him. Is it a special preference to be so particular?"
And this little sachet is not cheap.
While patrolling the streets, Wang Zhe used the "Qi Watching Technique" from time to time to see if there was any special aura in the city, but found nothing unusual.
It still takes a lot of concentration to perform this "Qi Watching Technique". With his current level of cultivation, he can't perform it all the time. He will have to stop and take a rest after a while.
In the afternoon, Lao Hou brought back the news that the women who had the accident in Lin County also died in strange ways, and they were all unmarried women.
"They are all unmarried women. So what happened to the Lin County Magistrate's concubine?"
"That's some rumor and nonsense." Lao Hou breathed a sigh of relief. The person he was worried about was probably not in any danger.
"I don't know when the "flower-picking thief" will leave our place!" Lao Hou sighed.
"Leave. After he left Guobei County, he would go to other places and harm other people. Have you never thought about bringing those harms to justice?"
"Bring him to justice? I want to, too! But I heard that the "flower-picking thief" can fly over walls and walls, walk like a ghost, and is very aggressive. He is obviously a master. Who in our small county has the ability to stop him?"
"Isn't Zhu Captou able to kill a cow with one punch? Wouldn't it be over with just one punch?" Wang Zhe said disapprovingly.
"That guy is bragging. I can still control ten girls at night. Do you believe it?"
"I believe it!" Wang Zhe nodded.
"Maybe that person can, but I don't know if he is still in Guobei County."
"Who?" Wang Zhe was stunned.
"It's that hero. If he were here, he would definitely be able to capture that thief!"
"You trust him so much, maybe he's not that good at all?"
"I have a hunch that he is one of those legendary masters!" At this point, Lao Hou showed a faint look of admiration on his face.
Wang Zhe smiled and shook his head after hearing this.
Peerless master, I think so too! He thought to himself
"I hope nothing happens tonight!" Lao Hou sighed.
As soon as Wang Zhe said this, Lao Hou raised his hand and slapped himself without saying anything.
"Bah, bah, bah, you have a bad mouth, something will happen tonight!"
Something really happened that night. Another girl was killed, this time from a wealthy family in Guobei City.
The girl died in her boudoir. The scars on her body were the same as those of the woman who had the accident yesterday. She had the same panicked and desperate expression, her eyes were open in anger, and she refused to close her eyes.
At the scene of the incident, Wang Zhe smelled the aroma again, and this time the aroma was much stronger than yesterday.
