Chapter 9: The Girl's Discovery

Jiang Xu was stunned, looking at Qiao Jing, who was deep in thought, and trembled unconsciously.

It wasn't a feeling of fear, but it was too familiar, and in the four years of college, he almost came by looking at this expression.

Whenever something strange happened around him or he needed to help the police solve a case, his teacher would show the same expression on Qiao Jing's face.

Jiang Xu's sudden silence also made Qiao Jing feel strange, and Qiao Jing raised his head to look at Jiang Xu.

"You don't have to think too much, the problem of this footprint just makes me a little confused, but it is not the key to solving the case for the time being, the key now is to listen to what this group of people have to say. ”

Jiang Xu was pulled back to his thoughts by his words, and then nodded.

"Let's ask them separately first, although you don't have much experience, but I think you are a psychiatrist after all, this kind of thing should not be difficult for you, your main job is to judge whether they are suspicious from their expressions and the wording of their answers. ”

Qiao Jing nodded and then the three of them walked over together, separated a few people, and asked these people to follow them to different rooms, asking one by one, just asked no two people, Jiang Xu here, there was a girl who caught his attention.

When the girl walked in, she was obviously more panicked than the others, not only that, Jiang Xu saw that her fingertips were white, and her face was also very pale, he thought that the girl was just timid, and then comforted.

"Don't be so nervous, just ask some questions as usual, and you can go back after asking. ”

The girl glanced up at him, then quickly lowered her head.

"There's something I've never dared to say, and I don't know whether to say it or not. ”

Jiang Xu smiled.

"You've got it all to this, I'm sure I'm going to ask you, if there's anything you should say or not, just say what you know. ”

The girl trembled all over, as if she had thought of something, and her eyes were full of fear.

"In this mountain...... Yes, there are suspicious people, or hauntings?"

When Jiang Xu heard the girl say this, he was immediately interested.

"Why do you say that?"

The girl's voice was very low and sounded a little unstable, Jiang Xu knew that she must have been frightened by something

"Well, we lived in a room two rooms away from here, and when I got up that night to get some supper in the kitchen, I noticed that there was a dark shadow in the window, and it was very large, and I was very frightened in the living room alone, but I couldn't help but look at it, and I saw a strangely dressed man, standing not far from the window, as if picking up something on the ground. ”

Jiang Xu raised his eyebrows, and then said.

"Did you pay attention to what the man was wearing? was he wearing a very thick suit, like a small padded jacket, and a pair of torn sneakers?"

The girl frowned, then shook her head in a vague manner.

"I don't remember, I was scared stupid, it was the middle of the night, who would be hanging around outside, I thought that if he found me, he might do something, so I immediately hid under the kitchen bar, and it was a long time before I bent back to my room. However, I did take a look, and the clothes he was wearing were indeed very thick, but because it was dark outside, I didn't know what kind of clothes he was wearing. ”

Jiang Xu leaned back in the chair, thought for a long time, and asked again.

"When was it?"

The girl didn't think about it, and immediately replied.

"It was the middle of the night before yesterday."

Jiang Xu was a little surprised.

"The day before yesterday?"

Jiang Xu narrowed his eyes, it was the day before the murder.

The girl nodded

"It was the day before yesterday, the night before yesterday was the second day we came here, and I was more familiar with the environment in the house, so I dared to go to the living room in the middle of the night to get something to eat. I'm afraid of the dark, and I usually don't go out of the room in the middle of the night, but it's different in the familiar environment, I didn't dare on the first night, and I only dared on the second night. ”

Jiang Xu nodded and continued to ask.

"How many people are in your group?"

The girl said lightly.

"This time the company has taken annual leave, and our department has a total of four teams, a team of eight people, a total of 32 people, divided into four groups, eight people in a room, and four nearby rooms have been rented by us. ”

Jiang Xu nodded, recorded what the little girl said, and then continued.

"The 32 of you who came this time must know each other very well, right? Have any of you ever had a conflict with anyone or have you found anything strange since you arrived here?"

The girl frowned, then shook her head

"No one has any conflicts with anyone, and we don't know anyone else who comes here. 32 people do activities together, everyone knows each other very well, so there are generally no contradictions, occasionally the game is a little serious, we will also come out to mediate. And what our company does is originally related to regulating emotions, so we can control our emotions very well and there will be no conflicts. ”

Jiang Xu nodded, knowing that there was nothing to ask, and then took care of the girl.

"Remember, if you see a suspicious person in the future, be sure to let me know as soon as possible. ”

As he spoke, Jiang Xu left his mobile phone number to the girl.

The girl nodded, then turned to leave, and when she reached the door, she suddenly turned around.

Jiang Xu saw him turn around and looked at him strangely.

"What's wrong?"

The girl seemed to have something unspeakable, Jiang Xu felt that if he didn't ask now, it would be difficult to ask later, so he didn't let the girl go, and hurriedly asked.

"Is there anything important to tell me?"

The girl nodded.

"That's right, when I first came here, I thought the atmosphere in the mountains was weird. ”

Jiang Xu became a little curious, and then looked around.

"What's strange to you?"

Jiang Xu and they have been here for two days, but he doesn't think there is anything strange here.

The girl seemed to want to say something, but when she saw Jiang Xu asking like this, she didn't dare to say it.

Jiang Xu realized that his attitude might make the girl a little reluctant to say anything, so he immediately changed his statement.

"I mean, maybe you found something that we didn't find, just say it. ”

The girl seemed to be encouraged and immediately said.

"There are a lot of places that are very strange, and it may be that I have read too many mystery novels, so I am a little sensitive. ”

Jiang Xu laughed, he didn't expect this seemingly weak girl to be a fan of mystery novels.

"But it doesn't matter, maybe there really is a clue!"

The girl nodded, and her expression became serious.

"The first thing that strikes me as strange is the staff. When we first arrived, because we were not familiar with the situation here, I asked the staff what is the closest way up the mountain? The staff told us that it was the road on the right hand side of the mountain, that is, the road from the wooden house where you found the murder, but later we found that a plank road on the right hand side of the villa is obviously more convenient to go up and down the mountain, more energy-saving, and closer, which makes me feel a little unbelievable, even the road we can see when we go around here, they have worked here for so long, so they don't know it!"

When the girl said this, Jiang Xu also felt strange, presumably when Yang Wen took them up the mountain, he should have also asked which road was the closest, obviously the staff did not tell Yang Wen that they found the road on the plank road.

Seeing that Jiang Xu didn't squeak, the girl continued.

"The second is that when we are doing activities in the mountains, we always come with some BB bullets, which are the kind of BB bullets that we used to shoot when we were kids. As far as I know, the CS field here uses easter eggs, and if there are traces of easter eggs on the ground, it is not unusual. But how can such a thing as BB bombs be everywhere? This shows that there are people here who use this kind of thing. But I've been here for a few days, and I haven't noticed any children playing with pistols, so don't you think it's strange. ”

Jiang Xu frowned, what he was thinking in his heart at this time, even he didn't know himself.

Obviously, the girl came a little earlier than they did, and she did notice something out of the ordinary, and if the girl said so, then there were some problems with the staff below.

In other words, there is something wrong with the plank road that makes the staff shy away, and if this is the case, then the seriousness of the problem comes out, and they must thoroughly search the entire mountain to find clues.

Jiang Xu's expression suddenly became a little hideous, he felt that the case seemed to be very deep, and the people here looked very complicated.

The girl thought she had said the wrong thing, and she trembled again.

When Jiang Xu saw the girl like this, he realized that his expression might be too serious and scared her, so he quickly smiled.

"I'm sorry, I'm a little distracted when I think about the question, don't you mind, is there anything else about you that makes you feel weird?"

Jiang Xu felt that this girl was really keen, even stronger than some of their police observations!

This time, the girl did not hesitate any longer, and looked directly at Jiang Xu, with a determined light in her eyes.

"And the last point, which struck me the weirdest. That's the smell of the mountains. ”

Hearing this, Jiang Xu's expression became more urgent, his eyes widened, and he rushed to the girl with an arrow step and grabbed her shoulder.

Startled by his actions, the girl took a step back and looked at him in horror.

Jiang Xu met the girl's expression, immediately let go of her, and then asked loudly.

"Is there something wrong with the smell here?"

The girl nodded, then lowered her voice.

"Yes, I always feel that the air here is filled with the smell of medical alcohol and unknown Chinese medicine. However, I asked the others, and they all said they weren't paying attention, so I guessed that there must be something special about the smell, or maybe I was hallucinating. ”

Jiang Xu squinted his eyes and looked at the girl coldly, his face wrinkled, and his heart immediately denied the girl's idea that he felt that he was hallucinating, because ......

He could smell the strange smell too.
