Chapter 25: The Nightingale Weeps (11)
"Mr. Qi, I was entrusted by Miss Qi Liyue to investigate the cause of death, and I found that there were traces of magic in Miss Qi's death, so I came to ask you to solve your doubts. ”
Zhiqian briefly explained his intentions, his eyes staring at the constantly jumping flames, and he didn't look at Mr. Qi at all.
"My daughter has died, how could you be entrusted by her? Besides, the cause of her death is being investigated by the police, dare to ask this young lady, what ability is better than the police?"
Mr. Qi does not hide his disdain and arrogance at all, since the death of his youngest daughter, he has completely lost the long-sleeved and good dancing demeanor in the past, when he doesn't speak, he is an iceberg, and when he speaks, he not only stabs others, but also blows himself.
Zhiwan didn't care about Mr. Qi's attitude, and still looked at the flames and said in a cold tone: "The power of ghosts and gods is naturally better than that of mortals with the naked eye, what did Mr. Qi say?"
"Oh, where are there any ghosts and gods in the world! If this young lady can only talk nonsense, then please go back. ”
Although Mr. Qi was holding stacks of coins in his hand, he did not believe in any soul theory in his private heart, and firmly adhered to the materialist worldview.
Burning these coins now is just to give yourself a little comfort in your heart, so that you can feel better.
"Mr. Qi doesn't believe in ghosts and gods, but his behavior is not convincing at the moment. Or did someone give Mr. Qi an opinion that made Mr. Qi have the idea of burning the coin?"
Listening to Mr. Qi's words, Zhiqian knew in his heart that Mr. Qi and the warlock should have nothing to do with it, and the person who applied the spell might be the person around him or someone known to the people around him.
"These are my private affairs, and this young lady has no right to intervene. ”
Mr. Qi was very cold and stiff, unwilling to answer Zhixuan's words.
Zhiqian has patience in the right matter, and she is not angry when she is scolded back again, she even spares twice on the edge of the brazier very freely, and finally has a fluctuating gaze against Mr. Qi, who is not afraid of the beast-like flames at all, and directly reaches in and takes out a piece of paper.
It is a dark coin, but unlike other coins, it has a dark blue pattern, which remains intact under the flames, and the surface is shining like water in the sun.
"Yike...... What is this?" Zhifei opened his mouth lightly, slowly flattened the "Dark Coins", looked at them carefully, and then looked at Mr. Qi who was surprised, "Mr. Qi doesn't know what this is, ......does he?"
Mr. Qi frowned, he was able to take things from the fire without being injured, it seemed that this strange woman was not an ordinary person.
Before, Zhiqian stood next to him, and Mr. Qi had no intention of entertaining Zhixuan, so naturally he would not go out of his way to look at Zhixuan's face.
At this time, Zhiwan walked to the opposite of him, and the beautiful and dusty face and absolutely unusual bearing were unobstructed.
In addition, it was as easy as digging for a treasure in the fire, and she was extremely accurate enough to find the one that was different - not easy!
Mr. Qi looked at the "dark coin" held by his fingertips, and wondered when there was such a dark coin.
"I haven't seen this one, this ...... Master, if you have something to say, you don't have to beat around the bush. Mr. Qi said.
Zhiqian approached Mr. Qi and handed him the piece of paper that was very similar to the dark coin, but it was actually a charm, and said nonchalantly: "Mr. Qi wants to talk about business here? ”
Mr. Qi stared at Zhiqian without emotion, and Zhiqian looked back indifferently, and the atmosphere was quite stagnant for a while.
After a while, Mr. Qi retracted his gaze and compromised: "In this case, I will ask this master to move to the living room with me and discuss matters together." ”
"It's no different. ”
Zhifei replied politely and smiled.
............
"It's been so long, I still don't know the name of the master, but I don't entertain him well. ”
In the living room, the housekeeper served tea to the two of them, and put some pastries and nuts on the table.
Holding on to the ghost is a ghost, and he doesn't eat the fireworks of the world, of course he won't touch these, just when they don't exist, and he gets straight to the point.
"My surname is Xue, and I am not a master. Today's visit is for the reason for Ling Yuan's death, and I hope you will forgive me for the disturbance. ”
Mr. Qi didn't take it seriously before, but now that he has seen the ability to hold the scarf, he attaches more importance to her words.
Caring for his daughter, Mr. Qi, who has always been noble and arrogant in front of outsiders, showed an irrepressible bitterness, obviously his daughter's accidental death hit him too hard, and he didn't care before just because he didn't believe in Zhixuan: "Do you know who killed Nannan? If you know, please tell me, I must tell this murderer to pieces!"
"What a good child my family is, she has a good temperament, she is beautiful, and she is capable! She has never quarreled with anyone, let alone had conflicts with others, how can she be ...... by others?"
"Mr. Qi," Zhiqian interrupted the man who was about to start blowing his daughter brainlessly, his expression was always cold, and he was not moved by the father's sincere emotions at all, "Si Ren has passed away, and I still want to mourn." I can't tell you who the murderer is for the time being, and the police will find out soon, so you just wait.
Now I want to know, since you don't believe in ghosts and gods, and you have never believed that Ling Yuan has a soul after death, why did you burn the Netherworld?
As he spoke, he pointed to the charm placed on the coffee table: "Who gave you this piece of paper?"
Mr. Qi had a trace of doubt on his face, and he suddenly said, "This, I want to think about it...... Burning the coin is my wife's request, she has been in poor health recently, and she is still living in the hospital, so she wants to burn money for the baby. It's not good to burn things at the hospital end, so I'll help her cook it at home, which can be regarded as a little comfort for myself!
As for this piece of paper...... I'll tell you the truth, I haven't really seen this piece of paper, and I probably got caught in some stack. ”
Mrs. Qi?
Zhiwan thought for a moment, tapped his fingertips on his knees, and asked, "Do you know what your wife's side does?"
Mr. Qi was at a loss: "Whether my wife's maiden family is in the real estate business or a big household in the city, few people don't know." ”
Real estate developers...... I don't know if there are any warlocks in the ancestors.
However, Zhiqian felt that it should not be so coincidental, and he ran into a warlock lineage, the Yi family is the last warlock family that has survived to this day, and there is only one living clansman, Chen Xi - oh, her father and her brother have not inherited it at all, they have not been recognized, and they are not descendants of the Yi family.
Whether it is or not, it will definitely not work just by guessing, so Mr. Qi said: "I don't know if it is inconvenient for Mrs. Zun, I want to meet her." ”
"This ...... My wife has been in a bad mood lately and may not be willing to see outsiders. ”
Mr. Qi was embarrassed, because of his daughter's affairs, his wife's spirit and body suffered a huge blow, and he had been depressed, and he had no interest or strength to meet customers.
He has great respect for his wife and will never bring anyone to disturb her against her will.
What's more, this Master Xue doesn't know the details, if he says something that stimulates his wife and tells her to do something to hurt herself, it won't be worth the loss!
In short, refuse first, even if you snub this Master Xue, who should be quite powerful, you can't make your wife unhappy.
