Although Xing Lie completed the first main quest and found a strong clue about the case, it is undeniable that he and Meng Fei are still passive.

As long as the enemy hidden in the shadows does not show his face, or does not take the next step, then the two of them can only wait passively, this kind of feeling of being led by the nose is very sad, but there is no better way to solve the current situation.

Even the criminal martyrs are a little helpless in the face of this situation, not to mention the rest of the criminal investigation team, on the surface, it seems that they are busy collecting clues from house to house, but in fact, it is all in vain to do all this, and there is no gain at all.

However, the reason why I still have to do this kind of superficial work is completely for the sake of looking better on the face, so as not to be secretly counted down.

In the evening, Xing Lie looked at his watch and felt that the time was almost up, so he called Yangzi and asked him to call someone to close the team.

Although the phone was connected, no one answered on the other side, and I don't know what I was busy with.

Xing Lie could only inform himself, but as soon as he and Meng Fei got out of the car, the phone rang.

looked at the caller ID, it was Yangzi calling, Xing Lie connected the phone, and Yangzi's deliberately suppressed voice suddenly came from the other end.

"The criminal squad, I found out, I, Dazui and Xiao Li are at the west end of the waste stone village, there was a scream here just now, it should be another homicide, I think we have blocked the murderer in this house, can we take people now?"

A trace of strangeness flashed in Xing Lie's eyes, and he only hesitated for a moment and said, "Don't take people yet, wait for me to come over, and send me your location." ”

Hung up the phone, not only Xing Lie, but even Meng Fei on the side also showed a suspicious look, just now Xing Lie set the phone speakerphone, and what Yangzi said was naturally heard clearly by Meng Fei.

"Senior, this can't be a counterattack against us, right? Under normal circumstances, the murderer can't be so eager to commit a crime under our noses. ”

Xing Lie nodded, what Meng Fei said made sense, imagine that this side has been completely controlled by the public security organs, no matter how fierce the gangsters are, it is impossible to cause another incident within ten kilometers, the only explanation should be for him and Meng Fei, maybe he wants to use some other means to make the investigation that he just had a little eyebrow on his side go to waste.

"No matter what the other party's purpose is, let's go and see it first. ”

Yangzi had already sent the location over, and Xing Lie started the car and quickly headed towards the waste stone village.

Waste Stone Village belongs to a small village in the jurisdiction of Linshan Town, next to the bald mountain, only a few kilometers away from the location of Xing Lie and Meng Fei, along the Linshan Highway is a maximum of ten minutes by car, Xing Lie drove to the waste stone village in only five minutes, and parked the car in the place where Yangzi was located.

This is a very ordinary farmhouse, with a courtyard wall less than two meters high made of red bricks, and faded Spring Festival couplets pasted on the gatehouse, giving people a somewhat dilapidated feeling.

Crossing the tall threshold, a house with long white tiles came into view, and Yangzi, Feng Dazui, and a police officer named Xiao Li from the criminal investigation team stood guard at the main entrance and two windows, all holding guns in their hands.

Yangzi saw Xing Lie appear, and hurriedly recruited, his face was still pale, as if it was caused by nervousness, and even if he looked closely, the hand holding the gun was trembling faintly.

"Team Xing, according to your orders, we have not acted rashly, and have been staying here, because the windows are equipped with security bars, so we can ensure that the gangsters will never escape from them, and not even a fly will fly out from under our noses. ”

"Well, why did you come to Wastestone Village, do the rest of the team know about your movements?"

Xing Lie did not decide to enter the house to investigate in the first place, but asked how the three of them came to this place to find clues.

"Team Xing, at that time, we saw two middle-aged men sneaky, we were about to go up to investigate, who wanted those two people to run away, and then we chased here, because the situation was urgent, so I didn't have time to report to you. ”

"Okay, I'll talk about the details later, you guys stay at the door, I'll go in and have a look. ”

After Xing Lie finished speaking, he was about to push the door in, and then Yangzi hurriedly said: "Xing team, I'll go in with you, just leave one or two people outside, Fei Fei is a girl, if she really encounters an ambush by gangsters, I'm worried that she will be injured."

Xing Lie glanced at Yangzi and said, "No need, Fei Fei and I will go in, and the three of you will stay here." ”

Xing Lie's tone could not be refused, Yangzi opened his mouth, but he still didn't say anything after all.

Opening the door, Xing Lie's brows suddenly furrowed, and Meng Fei's backpack also swelled, it should be that the spirit fox inside showed a restless side.

That's right, not to mention the spirit fox who has an extremely keen perception of the yin resentment qi, even Xing Lie obviously noticed that the house was filled with a compelling yin resentment qi.

Xing Lie adjusted his position slightly, protected Meng Fei behind him, and turned his hand to take out the anti-demon dagger.

This resentful aura cannot be faked, indicating that there must be supernatural creatures here, and at this time, Xing Lie has no time to consider and analyze the situation, supernatural creatures are extremely weird, and there is no room for carelessness.

Walking into the inner room, a smell of blood suddenly came to the nostrils, and there were two corpses lying on the ground, which was very similar to the scene seen at the murder scene in Linshan Town before, the skin of the whole body was peeled off, and the blood was extremely hideous.

Xing Lie opened his white eyes and looked around, the surrounding walls could not stop the prying eyes at all, and it was basically the same as he imagined, except for the corpses, there was no one or haunted house hiding here.

Meng Fei's backpack was almost scratched by the spirit fox, so he could only pull the chain and let the little guy out, the spirit fox sniffed the yin resentment in the air, the color of enjoyment on his face, and with the unstoppable rise and fall of his chest, the greedy absorber of the resentment around him.

Soon, the resentment in the room was almost consumed by the spirit fox, and the little guy's exposure was full of color, and he immediately eagerly walked past the corpse and ran to the back window.

There was a gap in the back window, and the spirit fox lay down in the gap and sucked it up, but when the resentment here was also sucked away by it, its performance became impatient again.

There is an anti-theft fence outside the window, and the spirit fox can't pass through, so he can only eagerly spin in place.

Xing Lie and Meng Fei glanced at each other, and knew without verbal communication that the supernatural creatures in the room must have slipped away through the gap in the back window.

Xing Lie stepped hard under his feet, and the whole person rushed out of the window, the security bar was nothing to him, and then Linghu and Meng Fei also jumped out of the back window and chased after him with a grudge.

If Xing Lie used the white eye, he could probably see the distribution of the residual yin resentment qi, but the distribution of the yin resentment qi was intermittent, and it was difficult to track, so he simply lifted the state of opening the white eye and followed the spirit fox all the way to track.

The backyard of this family is next to the bald mountain, and the resentment is extending towards the mountain, for the spirit fox, walking through the steep mountains is like walking on the ground, and the steep body can also not be used as an obstacle to the torture, but Meng Fei has a hard time, after all, this is the fourth mission world she has experienced, and the strengthening of the body is far from being able to achieve such a sensitive body as Xinglie and the spirit fox.

Fortunately, Xing Lie took enough care of Meng Fei, and in the end, he grabbed her slender waist and took her to follow Linghu closely.

Halfway up the mountain, it was already dark, and the wind that blew around from time to time made people shudder with a whistling sound like a ghost crying.

And the tombs that can be seen everywhere around add a bit of a strange atmosphere to this place.

Meng Fei couldn't help but grasp the punishment, for a freshman student who had only completed three missions and one monthly exam, it was still far from being immune to the strange scene, even the vast majority of the students in the intermediate class, let them spend the night in the grave circle, they would inevitably feel furious in their hearts, even if ordinary lonely souls and wild ghosts were not vulnerable at all in the hands of these people, but the psychological barriers were not so easy to break.

"If you want to get more attribute rewards, just take it easy, no matter what the enemy is, don't you still have me in front of you?"

Xing Lie comforted Meng Fei with words, in any task world, as long as the fear value exceeds 10 points, he will not be able to get double the reward after completing the task, if it is someone else, Xing Lie may not be too lazy to remind, but Meng Fei gives him a very good impression, and Meng Fei is also from the fourth class of the junior level, and he is also considered to have some origins, so if he can help, Xing Lie will not be stingy.

"Senior, aren't you afraid at all? Why do I think the two of us are not at the same level at all? You must have experienced at least two or three monthly exams, right?"

Hearing this, Xing Lie laughed and said, "I have taken the monthly exam three times in the junior class. ”

Xing Lie was telling the truth, he did only take three monthly exams when he was in the junior class, but Meng Fei didn't realize that he no longer belonged to the category of junior class students at all, and Xing Lie naturally wouldn't talk about this topic.

Meng Fei showed a sudden look, and said that it was so, and did not care about the implied meaning of Xing Lie's words.

The little confusion that Meng Fei sometimes shows is indeed easy to make people have the urge to tease her, but Xing Lie knows that this is not the time to joke, and it can be seen from the increasingly active performance of the spirit fox that it may not be far from finding the whereabouts of the supernatural creature.

After tracking for about five minutes, Xing Lie and Meng Fei's eyes suddenly lit up, and they found a firelight as far as they could see, and in the firelight, there was a vague figure with his back to the direction of Xing Lie and the two, and he didn't know what he was doing.

This mountain is bald except for the loess, and there are no weeds and dry firewood at all, but it can make a fire, I have to say that this is very strange.

And the appearance of that figure in such a difficult place to climb at night is even more indescribably weird.

The spirit fox greedily inhaled a few large mouthfuls of resentment in the direction of the firelight, and then quickly burrowed back into Meng Fei's pocket, looking a little afraid, and even this fear defeated its greed for food.

"Let's go, it looks like we've got the answer we want. ”

Compared with the look of fear on Meng Fei's face, Xing Lie's performance was very casual.
