061. The Tragedy of Destroying the Door
"Destroying the ?!!" Bai Xiaoqiu's sleepiness disappeared in an instant, leaving only a full of shock and doubt, the old man also personally gave himself a bonus yesterday, why was he wiped out all over the night?!
"Who did it?!! Bai Xiaoqiu's chest seemed to be blocked by a fire, and his voice was low and terrifying.
"I don't know." The newspaper seller shook his head, "I heard that the city defense team has sent someone to check the scene, and I don't know if I have found any useful clues, why don't you buy a newspaper and read it?" ”
Bai Xiaoqiu nodded, threw down two peach leaves, and asked the newspaper seller to deliver the newspaper.
[Miserable! The Shi family was tragically destroyed, and no one in the whole family survived! This is the headline of the newspaper.
The following text probably tells the tragic situation of the Shi family when it was discovered this morning, including the family and guards, a total of more than 20 people were killed, and the more detailed content was not announced, probably because the case is still unclear, and some information is inconvenient to disclose.
Bai Xiaoqiu walked out of the door and found that Shi Manqian had already finished washing up and was about to go out.
"You're awake," Shi Manqian said hurriedly, "Have you heard about the mayor's house?" ”
Bai Xiaoqiu nodded.
Shi Manqian said again: "I'm going to go to the Hunter Guild to inquire about the news, do you want to go together?" ”
Bai Xiaoqiu nodded again.
"Hey, you're weird today! It can't be because I kissed it last night and wilted, right? ”
Bai Xiaoqiu still shook his head deeply: "It's not that I always feel that what happened to Mayor Shizhen's family has something to do with me"
"You're thinking too much," Shi Manqian patted Bai Xiaoqiu's shoulder.
――――――――――――――――――――
What happened in the Shi family is not big or small, and it can be regarded as confidential, and detailed information can only be obtained by Shi Manqian, a descendant. Therefore, when it came to the Hunter Guild, Shi Manqian was responsible for going in to find out the news, while Bai Xiaoqiu waited at the gate of the guild to hold the egg scones and nibble violently.
As soon as a cake was in his stomach, he saw Chu Pingxuan and Li Huaqiang walking out of the guild with a little brother with a vote of fans.
"Ah, you're a very skilled migrant worker~" Chu Pingxuan came up to find fault as soon as he saw Bai Xiaoqiu.
"That's your aesthetic is as bad as it used to be." Bai Xiaoqiu retorted, "By the way, I heard that you lost a lot of people this time when you were a young man, and now you have to change your name, right?" ”
The boy's age was a cup in this hunting ceremony, and as soon as he entered the field, he was put down by Luo Hetu, scared away the other, and lost two generals in Bai Xiaoqiu's hands. Nine people went in and tossed for a while, but as a result, they didn't get a single official hunter qualification, but lost four members, and now there are only five people left in the dignified boyhood era. Fortunately, the two members planted in Bai Xiaoqiu's hands managed to escape, otherwise the feud between him and the Pink Group would have been great, and Chu Pingxuan might have attacked him directly.
At this time, hearing Bai Xiaoqiu's sarcasm, Chu Pingxuan was extremely calm, tilted his head and said with a slight smugness: "I have already thought of a new name, just call it!" Oh, by the way, this is a foreign language, you may not understand, translated into Chinese means miracle boy ~~ hahahaha, I am so talented! I can think of such a trendy name! ”
Bai Xiaoqiu nodded stunned: "Yes, yes, you are so talented."
"Okay, it's useless to pat me on the back," Chu Pingxuan shook his head proudly, "I'm going to take my little brother on a mission, and a wild hunter like you is here to slowly pose."
"Who slapped your ass!! This is Bai Xiaoqiu's answer.
Bei Guoxia followed at the end of their team, turned around and made an apologetic gesture towards Bai Xiaoqiu.
After a while, Shi Manqian also walked out, she patted Bai Xiaoqiu, and said in a low voice with a stern face: "The situation is a little complicated, let's go home and talk about it." ”
――――――――――――――――――――――
Returning to the inn and letting Xiao Er deliver the wine and food to the guest room, Shi Manqian said: "The person who did it this time is a master!" There were more than 20 people in the Shi family, all of whom were killed with one sword, including Shi Wucao. Moreover, the guild sent people to ask all the residents near the Shi family's mansion, and they all said that since last night, there has never been any unusual sound in the Shi family's mansion, and it is quiet as usual. ”
As soon as Shi Manqian said this, Bai Xiaoqiu understood where the murderer was. Although Shi Wuxian is now old (the appearance of the hunters is much younger than the actual age), and his strength has declined a little, he will never be weaker than the ordinary upper hunters, and he can kill all the more than 20 people in the Shi family in such an opponent at the moment, and he has not made any sound, the strength of this murderer is absolutely extraordinary, and it can even be said that the strength is a little terrifying.
"And" Shi Manqian glanced at Bai Xiaoqiu with some concern, and then said: "The murderer also left a line of blood on the wall of the Shi family's mansion - 'The knife is not good, and his crime should be punished!'" ’”
"The knife guard is not good, and its crime should be punished?" Bai Xiaoqiu raised his head suddenly, "Could it be that you mean the shadow gap?!! ”
"It's possible," Shi Manqian said: "It is said that the shadow crack in Shi Wucao's hand was actually given to him by a mysterious person many years ago, so it cannot be ruled out that when the mysterious man came back to ask for a knife, he found that Shi Wuwu had lost the knife, and he was angry with him to destroy the possibility of destroying his door." However, this statement is more of a kind of folklore, and we don't know if the mysterious man exists or not, so the guild is not prepared to investigate in this direction. ”
Bai Xiaoqiu suddenly felt that the fire blocking his chest was burning even more violently, and he raised his head and asked, "There is already an object of suspicion?" ”
Shi Manqian nodded: "The guild suspects that it is the hand of the 'hunter' Luohe. Because the knife wound on the corpse looked like his handwriting, and he happened to be moving around recently, it was very likely that he would have committed such a case with the strength of that psychopath. ”
[Luohe map? Bai Xiaoqiu always felt that such a case was not like he had done it. Shaking his head and not thinking about it for a while, Bai Xiaoqiu then asked, "How old is the youngest victim of the Shi family?" ”
"6 years old, Shi Wucao's grandson, was cut off with a knife."
Bai Xiaoqiu was silent.
Shi Manqian suddenly said, "I know what you're thinking. But the strength of the murderer is extraordinary, and this case is also full of weirdness, with your current strength, it is best not to get involved. ”
Bai Xiaoqiu nodded. The case of the Shi family is inextricably linked to him, and it is even very likely that the entire Shi family died because he stole the shadow crack, so Bai Xiaoqiu must find out this case and seek justice for the Shi family. But now he is too weak to find out the truth, nor has the strength to punish the murderer, and blindly reacting will only put himself in danger. All he has to do now is to hibern, hide in the shadows and slowly collect clues, and when he has accumulated enough strength, he will punch out again and shatter the whole mystery!
Shi Manqian said again: "You must not expose the matter of the shadow gap, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable!" ”
"I know." Bai Xiaoqiu paused for a moment, and suddenly asked, "What is the task assigned to you by the Hunter Guild this time?" ”
Shi Manqian said: "They asked me to be in charge of investigating the case of Shi Wujiao's family."
Without waiting for her to finish, Bai Xiaoqiu slapped the table and stood up: "Nonsense!" You can also be involved in this kind of case?! Even a tiger can't handle your weak chicken strength!! ”
Shi Manqian explained slowly: "I am only responsible for assisting in the investigation and liaison work, and I just need to sort out the clues they have collected, and I don't need to come forward at all." And in this way, I can also leave all the clues, and I'll tell you later~~"
"That's not going to work either!!" Bai Xiaoqiu wanted to say more.
Shi Manqian suddenly covered Bai Xiaoqiu's mouth, and smiled like a flower: "Settle down, I have my own measure, didn't I live so big before I met you?" ”
Bai Xiaoqiu pouted: "I really didn't see how big you are"
