Back home, Gu Ming took advantage of the joy of drinking and engagement, clicked on the system task interface, and took over the daily task and began to copy.

The pen is like flying, and it is full of energy.

I submitted two missions in a row, and it was just after midnight.

I put down my pen and took a comfortable shower before going to bed.

With his current physical condition, he only needs to sleep for one or two hours a day under normal circumstances to maintain his full physical strength.

As soon as the morning dawned, I got up first and punched indiscriminately in the courtyard......

There's no way, the system is this urine, and it doesn't provide any skills with moves, so you can only play freely and give full play to the tricks without winning tricks.

It doesn't matter if you fight indiscriminately, you can move your muscles and bones.

After finishing and washing up, I locked the courtyard door and went outside to have some breakfast casually, and then walked in the direction of the study.

Before the results arrived, a system prompt popped up in my mind.

Generally speaking, the system will only take the initiative to prompt when a special task is released, and other tasks are viewed by clicking on the task interface.

So, Gu Ming walked to the no-man's land on the side of the street and quickly clicked on the task:

[Investigate the cause of death of the watchman, find out the culprit and eliminate it]

[Reward: 20 points]

What the heck?

Seeing this task, Gu Ming was a little confused.

After all, there are no other hints for the mission, and he doesn't even know who the watchman is.

I haven't heard of any beaters dying anywhere.

However, since the system has released this task, it means that the murder must have happened.

After thinking about it, let's go to the store first.

Anyway, there is no time limit for the mission.

Soon after arriving at the store, a scholar who was selling calligraphy and paintings on consignment in the store walked in and began to talk about the topic.

"I heard that a watchman died."

"Isn't it normal to die someone?"

Dong Sheng replied disapprovingly while sorting out old books.

"No, no, no, I heard that the death was very miserable, with injuries all over my body, and half of my entire face was bitten off......"

"Biting?"

Gu Ming was taken aback.

It's no wonder that the system will issue special missions, which sounds like another non-human murder.

"Yes, some say it looks like a beast. But where are the beasts in this city? I guess it's mostly wild dogs. ”

Hearing this, Gu Ming immediately greeted Dong Sheng and left the store.

Subsequently, he came to the county office to find Nie Hongshu.

"Lord Nie, I heard that there was a murder in the city?"

In front of others in the county government, Gu Ming naturally couldn't be called his father-in-law.

"You're pretty good...... Strange, what do you care about this? ”

"Isn't this trying to help adults share their worries?"

Hearing this, Nie Hongshu was not very pleased. Then he sighed again: "This official just became the acting county magistrate, and as a result, such an unsolved case happened, which is really nerve-wracking. ”

"My lord, can you let the students look at the corpses, maybe something will be found."

"Okay, you two take Gu Xiucai to the mortuary to have a look."

"Yes, sir!"

The two officials responded in unison.

When they came to the mortuary, the two did not dare to go in.

Gu Ming is not afraid, after all, he has even seen ghosts, let alone dead people.

Once inside, uncover the straw mat and take a look......

"Hiss~"

Take a gasp.

I don't feel anything when I listen to others, but when I look at the scene, I know that it is really miserable and terrifying.

The corpse's entire face was no longer recognizable, and most of the flesh on the face was missing, revealing the white bones.

Arms, chest, legs, ...... There were injuries all over the body.

On closer inspection, some look like scratches, others are bites.

The scholar guessed that it was a wild dog, and it was indeed said in the past.

However, Gu Ming felt that it would not be so simple.

So it's a wild dog, and it's impossible for the system to issue a special mission.

It's either a ghost or a demon!

After carefully examining it for a while, Gu Ming finally made a discovery.

On the hem of the deceased's clothes, a bloodstained mass of hair was found.

So, I quietly received the package I was carrying with me, and I was going to take it back to study it.

Continuing to investigate, a similar strand of hair was found on the deceased's leg.

Back in the inner hall, Nie Hongshu couldn't help but ask, "But what suspicious discoveries have you made?" ”

Gu Ming shook his head: "Not for the time being...... My lord, according to the results of your investigation, what is the situation? ”

"At the moment, the possibility of being killed by someone else can almost be ruled out.

Judging by the injuries, it may have been caused by wild dogs. Of course, this is only a preliminary conclusion, and the final conclusion must be made by a careful autopsy. ”

"Well, if it's okay, the student will take his leave first."

Leaving the county office, Gu Ming ran back to the small courtyard with a cigarette, washed the bloodstained hairs with water, and then examined them carefully.

The coat is pure black and delicate, and empirically it doesn't look like dog hair, but rather like cat hair.

Cat?

It can't be a cat demon, right?

Gu Ming frowned.

After all, cats are said to be psychic.

It is rare to hear of a dog demon, but the incident of a cat demon is often circulated.

I want to think about it, but what if I know it's a cat demon?

I don't know where to look.

Is it possible to go out every night to patrol the night and wait for the rabbits?

After thinking for a while, Gu Ming couldn't help but have a flash of inspiration...... yes, how do you forget your drinking buddies?

So, I immediately went out and bought two jars of good wine, roast chicken and other cooked food to put at home, and then returned to the store.

……

As soon as it got dark, Gu Ming went straight to the City God Temple.

During the day, the area around the temple is one of the liveliest places in the city, but at night there are hardly any people in sight.

There will be no one in the temple.

However, it is a permanent light.

Entering the hall, Gu Ming first saluted the statue of the city god, and then said, "Mr. Song is here?" ”

"Haha, of course!"

Song Tao also appeared in the palace without knowing where to fight.

"Mr. Song, Xiaosheng has prepared some thin wine and wants to invite you to the house for a few drinks."

"Hehe, I moved to a new house, it's time to celebrate."

Gu Ming sighed sincerely: "It is worthy of the City God, and I know such a trivial matter." ”

"The county seat is so big, it's hard not to know."

"That's that, Mr. Song, please~"

Back in the small courtyard, Gu Ming put down the wine and food, and the two chatted and drank each other.

"By the way, Mr. Song, Xiaosheng has something I want to ask for advice......

"Oh? What's the matter? ”

"Please take a look at what kind of hair this thing is."

Song Tao raised his eyes and couldn't help frowning: "Where did you get it?" This thing is the hair of a cat demon. ”

Sure enough, I guessed it!

Gu Ming sighed secretly and replied: "This was found from the dead watchman, so he was killed by the cat demon?" ”

"Not bad!" Song Tao nodded, and then said: "Do you want to ask, since I am a city god and know about this, why don't I stop or accept the cat demon?" ”

"This ...... Xiaosheng does have this question. ”

"I can only tell you that there are rules in heaven and in the world.

Even if I am a city god, I can't meddle in human affairs at will.

Even if you know that someone has done evil, you can only keep an account...... In short, you should be able to guess the reason, I can't say more. ”

"Well, pretty much understandable."

Gu Ming nodded.

Indeed, if all those people in the heavens and on the earth come out to meddle in the affairs of the world, then what else does the court have to do?
