160. The Invisible Ceiling (XVIII)
"You mean, this homeless man wasn't killed in the backyard?" Ye Xiaoworm quickly understood what Gu Fan meant, and his eyebrows were twisted together: "Then when and where was he killed by Wang Changming?" β
Gu Fan shook his head: "No, maybe he wasn't killed by Wang Changming at all." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
After that, Gu Fan and Xiao Zihan glanced at each other, and at the same time walked along the cobblestone path in the backyard to the courtyard door, and after opening, the two of them did not stop, but continued to walk to the garage door next to the backyard.
When Ye Xiaoworm caught up, the two had already managed to open the garage door and enter the dark garage.
Ye Xiaoworm turned on the flashlight, and a beam of white light pierced the darkness in the garage, reflecting on Wang Changming's scooter and Gu Fan and Xiao Zihan who were checking beside him.
Wang Changming's car is a black car, the logo of which is something Ye Xiaoworm has never seen, probably a unique brand in this script world, but Ye Xiaoworm can still see that this is a famous car with a lot of value.
At this time, Xiao Zihan was squatting at the rear of the car, using his miraculous universal lockpicking method to open the trunk.

It was a familiar voice again, and when Ye Xiaoworm walked behind Xiao Zihan with a flashlight, the trunk had already been opened.
Gu Fan on the side couldn't wait to open the trunk, but the trunk was empty, and there was nothing that could be counted as suspicious.
Xiao Zihan put the lock-picking tool in his trouser pocket, squinted his eyes and carefully rummaged through the trunk, and finally took out a very ordinary rag in a corner near the inside.
After he took out the rag, he quickly unfolded the entire cloth completely, and motioned for the leaf worm to hit the flashlight on the unfolded rag.
Through the strong flashlight, Gu Fan and Xiao Zihan could clearly see a dark red blood stain on it, which also completely confirmed their previous hypothesis.
"Sure enough, it was exactly what I expected." Gu Fan looked at this shocking blood stain and muttered: "This homeless man should have died outside the community, and then Wang Changming put the body in the trunk of his car, transported it back to his home, and buried him in the backyard!" β
"In other words, during the time that Wang Changming cut it off, he really didn't kill Yi Siyue, but went to the backyard to dig a pit and bury the body!"
"Yes...... When exactly did this homeless man die? And where did he die? Did Wang Changming kill the person? If he didn't kill him, why did he carry the body to the backyard of his home and bury it? β
After deducing the general course of the whole incident, Gu Fan had more questions in his heart, the homicide case of Yi Siyue, who was originally only one deceased, has now become much more complicated than before because the body of the homeless man was discovered.
But Xiao Zihan didn't seem to have any intention of getting to the bottom of it in this regard, but said in a deep voice: "Now is not the time to think about these issues." β
"Why?" Gu Fan was stunned.
"Don't forget what our mission is!"
"Investigate Yi Siyue's death?"
"That's right!"
Xiao Zihan slowly walked out of the dark garage, and said slowly in the moonlight: "As long as we can be sure now, Wang Changming didn't have time to kill Yi Siyue at that time, that's enough!" β
This also illustrates another problem...... Wang Changming was involved in another homicide case, so he had an alibi instead! So the murderer of Yi Siyue...... There was someone else. β
"So...... Who is this real murderer? β
Xiao Zihan took out the wires used to unlock the lock from his trouser pocket again, and whistled at Gu Fan, who was still pondering: "Take me to the scene of Yi Siyue's death." β

Although the time is approaching nine o'clock in the evening, the office floor where the magazine is located is still brightly lit, and in front of the desk, Lin Peijun is holding a stack of paper documents that are not too thin with one hand, and the other hand is constantly tapping on the keyboard of the laptop.
Not long after, Lu Xifa, who had messy hair, walked in from the office next door with purple-framed glasses, and scratched his head a little embarrassedly when he saw Lin Peijun working seriously with a serious face: "I'm sorry, I made the same mistake as you......"
Lin Peijun did not stop the work in hand, but tilted his head slightly, signaling that he saw Lu Xifa: "It's okay, I was also very fascinated at that time...... I'm almost done with the work at hand, and I should be able to meet tomorrow's deadline. β
Lucifer nodded, walked to the edge of the couch, and snorted: "Whew...... But this novel is really unexpectedly good. β
What Lucifer was holding in his hand at this time was the book "White Night Walking" borrowed from Zhuolan's house.
"But...... Pei Yun, did you see the payment on the last page of the novel? β
"What's the payment?" Lin Peijun turned his head with some curiosity and thought about it carefully, "That's what you said...... Is that a bookstore? β
"Harajuku Book House." Lucifer reminded.
"At the end of the novel, the words 'Stay at Harajuku Books' are written in black pen."
"It should also be Yi Siyue's reading notes before her death." Lin Peijun thought about it and replied.
"Yes...... What's the point of this kind of reading note? β
Lucifer was a little puzzled: "I didn't find the location of Harajuku Shoya in the novel......"
"That's probably something you write casually, right?" Lin Peijun was also a little uncertain at this time, "When I was studying, I would occasionally write something with unknown meaning. β
"But I found that it doesn't seem to be a ...... meaning," Lucifer took out his smartphone, opened the map function in the mobile app, and typed in the words "Harajuku Bookstore".
In an instant, a book-like icon appeared on the map, and on top of the icon was a small red dot, and next to the red dot, the words "Harajuku Bookstore" were clearly written.
"Look." Lucifer held up his phone and raised, "Harajuku Shoya really exists...... And this is the only one in the entire Tiandu City. β
Lin Peijun got up from his seat, took the mobile phone in Lu Xifa's hand, and looked at it carefully: "Is it possible that this book was bought at Harajuku Book House?" β
"Take a closer look at the publishing house on the cover." Lu Xifa closed the book of "White Night Walking" and handed the cover to Lin Peiyun.
Tiandu Publishing House...... Hey? Isn't this the publishing house directly under the magazine where we work? β
"That's right." Lu Xifa nodded: "As far as I know, all the books and periodicals published by our Tiandu Publishing House are sold directly in the bookstore directly under the publishing house...... In other words, the book is simply impossible to buy at this Harajuku bookstore. β
"Now that we know this, the ...... of this 'stay at Harajuku Bookstore'"
"It's a little intriguing......"
