When the detectives rushed out the door chasing the client, Mao Lilan subconsciously followed a few steps.
As she ran to the door, she suddenly remembered that if she left too, only Tokura Etsuko and the unconscious male college student would be left at the rest stop, and she immediately hesitated - what if the gangsters circled back to the rest stop after they left?
, attack these two helpless people in the house, then when they come back, there may be two more corpses in the house.
It's better to stay by yourself...
Thinking of this, Mao Lilan stopped.
She turned around and saw Etsuko Tokura, who was disturbed by the commotion just now, stopped packing her luggage and walked next to her.
Etsuko Tokura followed Mao Lilan and looked outside the door with doubts in her eyes. She guessed: "You guys went up the mountain not to play. Could it be that you have received some commission? It has something to do with the 'Silver Fox'
?"
Mao Lilan nodded.
By now, Jiang Xia's detective identity has long been exposed, and Silver Fox's identity has been roughly determined. If it continues to be kept secret, it may cause Etsuko Tokura to miss information at critical moments and make wrong decisions - such as when encountering something.
, running to the administrator's "staff" for help would put you in danger.
Mao Lilan then briefly told her the situation.
As he spoke, the window behind him made a soft "click" sound.
The two people were startled at the same time, looked at each other with a slight panic, and turned around in confusion.
Behind him, the room was empty, the windows were still closed, and no one was there.
"...Maybe it was blown by the wind." Etsuko Tokura breathed a sigh of relief briefly.
Mao Lilan vaguely felt that something was not right.
She looked at it intently for a while and suddenly remembered something:
"...The pink backpack next to the window is missing, the one containing 50 million in cash!"
Could it be that the robbers are back to collect stolen goods again?!
Remembering that it was a villain who had just killed someone, Mao Lilan walked to the window vigilantly and glanced out through the glass covered with thick dust.
There was no one outside, just a forest after the rain, and the fresh air filtered into the room through the cracks in the wooden house.
"..."
Mao Lilan looked at it suspiciously for a while, but found nothing wrong, so she temporarily withdrew her gaze.
She locked the window, ran to lock the door, and waited for the detectives to return.
…
A few meters away, in the woods.
A man in a black casual suit and light-colored sunglasses on his nose leaned against a tree, holding a heavy backpack that smelled of blood, and stood quietly.
When he found that no one was chasing him out, Matsuda Jinpei relaxed a little and looked down at the bag in his hand.
This was the bag left by the couple who robbed the leader of the violent gang. Jiang Xia asked him to find an opportunity to take it away.
Just now, after Matsuda Jinpei found an opportunity, he took away the bag with the intention of confiscating the stolen goods. But in the end, he was still not used to this kind of behavior. He always felt that he was doing something bad and breaking the law.
But Jiang Xia said that the money had a legitimate purpose - to give it to the source of the wine-flavored high-end murderous aura, and then use this to increase the chance of meeting, gather more murderous aura, and get the list of people who produce murderous aura shikigami...
…
A few days ago, Matsuda Jinpei believed Jiang Xia's words and thought that the murderous wine smell would really be out of print.
Who would have thought that now, there would be another source right away...
He leaned against the tree trunk, hugging the stolen goods, and sighed a little, the ghost's instinct and human conscience fiercely fighting.
A few seconds later, Matsuda Jinpei took his bag and left quickly.
It’s better not to think so complicatedly and just listen to the orders of the psychic. After all, he is just a ghost...
He found a hidden place and temporarily hid the bag.
After that, there are other things to do.
A while ago, after Jiang Xia drained Koizumi Hongzi's magic power, the ghost fetuses were greatly strengthened. In the past, when constructing puppets, the ghosts only maintained the human form of the puppet, and they had already tried their best to control the puppet to make some actions.
But after strengthening, they can briefly control the puppet's actions within a few minutes.
Later, with the unknown and strange teardrop, the time for controlling the puppet was actually extended to nearly an hour.
Although it seems that there is plenty of time, finding people in the mountains is not an easy task.
And the more time you stay outside, the more murderous energy you consume. You have to complete the tasks given by Jiang Xia within this period of time and try to save rations...
Matsuda Jinpei has been overwhelmed by a group of murderous ghosts in the past few days, and his thoughts have been unconsciously assimilated by his ghost colleagues.
He hurried to where he should go next.
…
the other side.
After the client, Chao Wenzao, locked the identity of Silver Fox through elimination, he rushed towards the nearest road down the mountain.
——This is actually not his first time to come to this mountain. He has been here several times secretly before and is quite familiar with the terrain here.
That's why he specifically used Danyuan Mountain as a climbing location so that he could have more autonomy after luring the "Silver Fox" out.
The purpose of Chao Wenzao trying every possible means to lure out the "Silver Fox" was not to revoke the commission so that the Silver Fox would not kill him.
Instead, he planned to kill Silver Fox.
——Six months ago, Silver Fox was hired to assassinate the president of a loan shark company. While driving, the president was hit in the chest by Silver Fox with a flying knife. Immediately afterwards, the president's car hit a kindergarten head-on.
The school bus car accident not only completely killed the president, but also resulted in the tragic death of a little girl.
The dead child happened to be Chao Wenzao's daughter.
After the child's death, Chao Wenzao frantically searched for traces of Silver Fox, but was unable to catch the elusive killer.
Later, he had an idea and decided to use himself as bait to lure out the silver fox and kill it.
He specifically went to Jiang Xia to entrust him with the task, hoping that the detective could identify the "Silver Fox" as soon as possible so that he could take action. In addition, if he failed to kill the Silver Fox, he could at least use the detective to set up double insurance.
When he failed, he asked the detective to throw Silver Fox into jail and make the murderer pay the price.
