"What's the problem?" Obviously, my performance this time is good, my sincerity is quite high, and I obviously please Xiao Zheng, and he even replied with a pleasant face. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"What do you mean by youkai who are disgusted with human appearance?"

"In fact, among the demon clans, only two-thirds of the demon clans choose to live with humans or pretend to live as humans. It doesn't have to be like this all the time, after all, the lifespan of humans is very limited, so many youkai will choose to change their identities to live in other regions after experiencing a period of human life, and some will choose to return to their homeland. However, there is still a third of the demon clan, and they have refused to live in a human way from beginning to end, and they have refused to approach humans. ”

"That's right." I sighed. But from the bottom of my heart, I think this kind of monster is the most kind. Regardless of whether they have turned away from humanity because they look down on humanity or for some other reason, at least they have given up the opportunity to harm humanity and play with humanity because of it. They should also be regarded as demon clans with their own pursuits and principles.

Unlike some monsters mixed in human society, they clearly look down on human beings, but how can they arm themselves like a human being, and they are extremely shameless.

"Okay, I've got a lot of news for you today, it's interesting enough. Now I have to send you back quickly, and then I will check the information, and I should be able to tell you the details tomorrow. I nodded, the amount of information provided by Xiao Zheng today is indeed quite large, I want to go back tonight and think about it.

"What's the matter, did you find anything useful?" Early the next morning, as soon as I got to work, I couldn't wait to go to Xiao Zheng's office.

"Well, I also found a little bit of information." Xiao Zheng still looked refreshed, not even a little dark circle under his eyes. Think about it, it stands to reason that he should have slept later than me when he wanted to check the information yesterday, why does it seem that his complexion is even better than mine today.

Hey, youkai are monsters, it's not fair. Unexpectedly, in just a few minutes, my mind unconsciously went astray.

Xiao Zheng took a pen and tapped it on my hand, and the sudden pain finally put my mind back on track.

"Well, you say, you say." I was distracted, and I was at a loss, so I couldn't ask him why it hurt me so much, so I could only let him get on with business.

"I've seen the illustrated book, and there is indeed a prototype of the demon clan similar to the hedgehog you said, which is also very consistent with the wound marks we found at the scene and on the deceased." Xiao Zheng took out a few pictures to show me, to be honest, except for some differences in details, I think it is really no different from the hedgehog in the animal world. Of course, I can only say this in my heart, and he will definitely make trouble again if I say it to Xiao Zheng.

"And I have also checked the resident demon clan population registered in City C, and the number of hedgehog clans is very small. There are only a hundred and a few. You know, last time we investigated, there were three eagles in that company alone, and there were tens of thousands in the city. The overall permanent population of City C is about 10 million, of which youkai account for one-fifth of the total population. Even if there are many demon clans, the number of this hedgehog clan can be said to be very rare. Xiao Zheng frowned slightly.

"Doesn't that mean we have a better investigation, after all, there are not too many people, and even if we do a specific investigation, it won't take too long." I don't know why Xiao Zheng's face is so bad, isn't it better to have fewer targets with fewer numbers.

"That's not what I said, because the information shows that no matter their age, occupation, or circle, it is obviously impossible for them to be related to a junior high school student, and the scope of their usual activities is not within the range of the crime scene." Because of the small number of people, Xiao Zheng has already investigated all the people on the list in advance, but it is precisely because of the investigation that he is even more dissatisfied with the results of the investigation.

"So you're saying that these people are basically not suspected of being murderers?" I finally know the reason why Xiao Zheng frowned.

"I went and looked through the information of the hedgehog tribe. This demon clan has a docile and gentle personality, and it can even be said that he is a little timid and cowardly, and he is not a demon clan that fights bravely. And they like nature, so there are few permanent residents in the human world, and they generally live in the demon world or in remote and hidden mountains. According to the investigation, this clan can be said to be a very weak type of demon clan that is not aggressive. ”

"So you're saying it's hard for them to be murderers in terms of personality and ability, do you?" I probably understood what Xiao Zheng meant.

"That's right, first, they're not the type to attack, second, their ability to attack and the damage they can do may be far from the level of the scars on the deceased's body, and third, they don't have a motive, at least so far."

Although I really want to say something, I have to say that I also admit that Xiao Zheng's analysis may be correct, but.

"Isn't there a special case? There has to be a scumbag in a bunch of scholars.,Do you think this clan will have that kind of monster whose behavior is not quite similar to his race.。 "Think about it, although this shows that this demon clan is indeed very gentle, it doesn't mean that there are no exceptions.

"The problem is, even if there is such a not gentle, even violent and vicious hedgehog clan, his strength is far from the scars we see, and the general demon power and attack power of this clan are very weak. Otherwise, it wouldn't have basically remained in its original form, after all, the cultivation speed of the prototype was relatively fast. ”

Xiao Zheng and I sighed at the same time, yesterday I felt that the peak and loop had turned around, and today it seems that I have walked back to the same place, and there is a lot of fog.

"However, the appearance of this hedgehog clan is by far the most similar to the deceased and the traces left at the scene, and I feel like we still have to focus on them." I don't think there's a special case for youkai, but if the wounds are similar, then their possibilities won't go away. Anything can be faked or hidden, but the clues given to us by corpses are always true and the most reliable.

"Yes, that's what I thought. After all, you also know that there is a snow region, if a demon clan consumes a large amount of snow region, then his demon power that bursts out in an instant may also cause amazing consequences, if it is a hedgehog clan in the outbreak period, then it is not impossible to cause those traces. "Xiao Zheng said a possible scenario." But now it's time to know the identity of the deceased first, and then to investigate other clues. I reckon the results will be out this morning. ”
