"Little girl, step back and don't stand by the door!"

"Got it!"

Qiu Xuan stepped back in response, and the light bulb above her head flickered twice in response. She almost brushed off with the demons around her, swallowing her saliva and sliding her fingertips into the villain pendant deep in her pocket, anyway, she was ready in advance. Because "it" just said that it is impossible for the door to be opened, let alone ......

Boom ——!

In the next second, Qiu Xuan felt that even the deformed ghost on his side was a little stunned looking at the door panel that had been broken open from it. A saw blade that rotated at high speed reached in, and with the sound of gears cutting objects, the wooden door panel quickly split apart under the violent division.

Oh yes. Qiu Xuan grabbed the hand that came from the outstretch and jumped out of the darkness.

The door is gone, and it doesn't matter if the door is open or not.

She was convinced to look at the man in a straight suit but carrying a leather-faced chainsaw in her hand and made a "Brother Yuan" mouth, the latter turned off the power and carried the high-power chain saw in her hand with one hand, pulled Qiu Xuan back a few steps and completely left the dark range.

"Are there any injuries?"

"It's fine."

It was the wound on his right wrist that had been eaten by the tooth fairy and was somewhat torn because of the excessive range of movement, Qiu Xuan rewrapped the loose gauze, and frowned at the manager who rushed in their direction.

Some middle-aged men with fat still had familiar red nameplates pinned to their chests, and he walked angrily under the guidance of the employees around him, and after seeing what Qin Jiuyuan was carrying with a solemn face, he paused a little shorter at a distance of one meter away.

Reminded by the rest of the staff, the manager cleared his throat and finally said, "This gentleman, you have taken the equipment from the backstage without permission and caused damage to our facilities, and we have reported this matter to the police." ...... for the damage caused by your actions"

"I'll pay for the loss, or we'll go straight to the police station later." Not wanting to talk too much, Qin Jiuyuan still looked at the wound on Qiu Xuan's wrist with a cold face, and then bent over to her and whispered, "Is it 'that kind of thing' again this time?" ”

"Hmm."

"You can't go on like this all the time, little girl. I knew a friend who was in charge of Feng Shui Yin and Yang, and I ......"

"This gentleman!" Seeing that he had been ignored repeatedly, and he didn't know that it was the increasing number of people watching the excitement around him that gave him courage, the manager stepped forward and interrupted Qin Jiuyuan loudly. "This is not a problem that can be solved by simply paying compensation, you have been suspected of deliberately destroying public facilities and causing ......"

"The toilet circuit flashed." Immediately, Qiu Xuan raised his head to look at the manager, and then interrupted him, "I'm trapped inside and injured, it should be no problem to use firefighting equipment to save people in this emergency." Again, if there is any specific problem that you want to solve, our police station will tell you in detail, you have already called the police, haven't you? ”

As if to echo her words, in less than a few minutes, there was a commotion outside the crowd, and then the crowd of onlookers was evacuated to make way for the crowd. "Who's calling?" The uniformed police officer, led by the leader, strode over.

Qiu Xuan raised an eyebrow.

"Why are you?" The police officer was stunned and lifted the brim of his hat up, it turned out to be Jiang Yu, the person in charge of Sang Wanning's case before. Qiu Xuan sighed and opened her mouth before the manager. "They called the police." She pointed to the direction of the manager's employees, and said, "There should be a girl in the toilet who is lying there, please save it, let's talk about the specific things when we get there." ”

When he sat back on the police car that belonged to the Second Criminal Police Force, Qiu Xuan was almost familiar with the layout environment. The middle-aged police officer, who was also sitting in the passenger seat, looked back and was equally surprised when he saw her. "Why," he smirked, reacting, "I'll just say who is reporting the crime at this time, just in time for us to be around here." So this time because of what, your doll suddenly became and scared you? ”

"Lao He." Jiang Yu coughed lightly to remind. The latter then waved his hand to indicate that he understood, and then turned his head back and stopped teasing.

The middle-aged manager and an employee were coldly nestled in the corner, and saw that Qin Qiu and the others obviously knew those police officers. The two glanced at each other, and their original confident thoughts were a little stunned for a while.

Municipal Police Station, Confession Room.

“…… So what is the relationship between that fainting girl and you? "I received the test report from the hospital and learned that there was no major problem except for some minor overstarts. Jiang Yu propped his hands on the table, changed his relaxed tone when chatting before, and looked solemn, "Have you ever had a dispute with him before?" ”

"That...... That, officer. On the side, the manager, who had been ignored as a reporter, finally spoke. I think the focus of this incident should be this man's malicious destruction of our public facilities......"

"Now I'm recording a confession, this gentleman!" Jiang Yu turned his head, his voice strong and solemn. "Since this case is related to another vicious murder case that has not yet been solved, it is likely that it will be the development of an important clue. According to our process, please cooperate and do not interrupt at will! ”

"Okay, good ......" The two of them immediately continued to nest aside as if they were frightened, and they were as quiet as chickens.

Seeing Jiang Yu's gaze returning to her, Qiu Xuan sat on the other side of the desk and said calmly: "Lin Hongxin and I are classmates, and we also met by chance in the toilet this time. As for the disputes, there are probably some, the reason is that she doesn't like me. ”

"Why?"

"Because I'm Qin Xiao's 'girlfriend'?"

I don't know if it's her delusion, Qin Jiuyuan, who was sitting next to her, suddenly squeezed out a small cold snort from the depths of his throat.

"What is Qin Xiao's identity?"

After taking a moment to explain the complex intertwined relationship between them, the timeline of events finally progressed to the toilet incident at noon today.

Qiu Xuan wrapped around the gauze with a small horn on her right wrist and said, "I suspect that the 'thing' that attacked us in the toilet this time and got on Lin Hongxin's body is the same as the one who killed Sang Wanning. ”

"No, it's obviously a new century, isn't it, what kind of ideological atmosphere is left by your feudal family?" The middle-aged police officer, who had been sitting and listening, finally couldn't help it, and said in disbelief: "Really, I wanted to say it last time. Qin Jiuyuan, is it called Qin Jiuyuan? I'm still wondering what kind of family can teach such a way of thinking, but it turns out that you have always been deeply influenced by this superstitious metaphysics. ”

"Again, just because you don't believe it doesn't mean it doesn't exist." Qiu Xuan didn't get up to reason with him, but still stated straightforwardly, "Later, it was said when I reported the case, he sawed the door panel to save me, so it can't be regarded as deliberately damaging public property." ”

Since then, the confessions of the manager and the employee have also been the same, there is nothing to do with the two of them, or it can be said that compared with the civil dispute, the continuous fermentation of the Sang Wanning incident is the focus of this incident. So I recorded the follow-up contact information and solutions, and asked them to go back first.

The thick door was closed again, and at this time, only Qiu Xuan and Qin Jiuyuan were the only people sitting on the opposite side of the room. The middle-aged police officer wanted to take this opportunity to talk to them about feudal superstition, but the next second, Jiang Yu respectfully invited him out.

"Mr. Qin, please go out with Lao He for a while." Jiang Yu said, "Let me talk to the child alone, is it okay?" ”

Qin Jiuyuan frowned and sat still.

"There you go." Qiu Xuan pulled his cuffs, "It's okay, I'll call you if there's something, isn't it?" She tapped her fingertips on the ring at the base of her finger.

"Okay." Finally moved, Qin Jiuyuan stood up and followed the middle-aged police officer with "There is a problem with your education method" written on his face and walked out of the room, leaving Qiu Xuan and Jiang Yu face to face in the empty room.

Jiang Yu stared at her for a while, was silent for a few breaths, and suddenly reached out and turned off the voice recorder and monitoring that had been recording. He finished all this in front of her under Qiu Xuan's nose before he continued to put away the pen and paper of the record, and really faced her again with nothing in his hands.

"Qiu Xuan." Jiang Yu shouted her name again. "I promise that our next conversation will not be known to a third person, so, can you trust me to tell me everything?"

"It's up to me to ask, 'Can you trust me.'" Qiu Xuan also watched him finish all this in silence, and didn't show any extra emotions.

Jiang Yu was not angry, he leaned forward slightly, staring straight into the eyes of the person opposite. "You say that there are certain supernatural forces in this world, and as long as you believe that they really exist, they really exist, right?"

"It's not enough to believe." Qiu Xuan said lightly, "'Believe' is just a statement that is easy to understand, in fact, what you really want to do...... What do you think the elemental makeup of this world looks like? ”

"Counting back from the moment when civilization appeared on Earth, people have assumed that 71 percent of the earth is water, that humans need oxygen to breathe, and that the sun is the center of the solar system," she said...... In other words, it is not a tacit acquiescence, because this is an existence that is infinitely close to the 'truth' after layers of research. ”

"By the same token, what if I 'default' to the fact that those things exist?"

"I see their existence as a kind of 'truth' that is taken for granted, as something as ordinary but essential as air, so in my construct of truth, 'they' are things that live with us and are under the same heaven and earth. This is the reason why I can see it, Sang Wanning can see it, but those who claim to be some Yin Yang Master and believe in ghosts and gods can't see it. ”

"They are not firm enough, or rather, they don't have the courage to 'see'."

"You're like that, officer." Qiu Xuan raised his head slowly, and the pupils of the person opposite him were slightly constricted because of surprise in his calm eyes. "After seeing Sang Wanning's death with your own eyes, coupled with what I said, you must have doubts about yourself, so you will find me again. It's not a coincidence at all, because you've been with me for a few days, but I can't find a chance because I haven't been out the other day, so I just took advantage of the time to return to school today, am I right? ”

For the first time, when facing a high school student who was almost two rounds younger than him, Jiang Yu was completely stumped and speechless. There was silence for a long time before he shook his head with a sigh, "Sometimes you don't make me feel like a student of this age...... Tsk, I have to figure out my thoughts, do you mind if I smoke? ”

Qiu Xuan: "Mind." ”

Jiang Yu: "Thank you very much, I'll smoke one...... Belch? ”

"I'll tell you the truth," Qiu Xuan said, "Although I am skilled in this path myself, I still don't recommend that you do it for the sake of a case." I'm already on a detour, and I don't want you, or any more, to follow the same path as me. It's no joke, because once you come up, there's no possibility of going back. ”

"I know."

"Then why do you bother?" Now Qiu Xuan really doesn't understand what he's thinking, and is in a hurry to face the fear of the unknown? She wasn't as elegant as that.

“…… Because I'm not reconciled. Jiang Yu took off the hat on his head and snorted his hair that had been shaved short. In my police career, some cases can be solved, but those that can't be solved often end up being sealed with red seals and stored in the highest file bag. I often wonder if these 'unsolvable' cases are all because they offended someone and were entangled in supernatural abilities, so they can't find the real culprit and take revenge. ”

"If only I could help them, if only I could catch the murderer. I think about it all the time, almost like some kind of obsession. At this point, he scratched his head, and there was some unnatural shyness. I've tried various ritual rituals to exorcise demons before, but none of them worked, probably because I hadn't dared to take that step yet. ”

"So this time I mainly want to ask you."

Jiang Yu said this, as if he could see it clearly at a glance, and it seemed that there was a molten fire hidden under the clear spring. "Please teach me how to 'see'!"

“…… Brother, I really can't teach this. Qiu Xuan sighed, "I myself came in for some very unpleasant reasons, so 'seeing' can be regarded as an instinct for me in this world, and this level is difficult to achieve." ”

"I don't care, I'll try."

"Okay," Qiu Xuan looked at him. "Then you're trying to show me now, what is that thing on the ceiling behind your back?"
