Recently, it has been raining heavily in the capital for several days, day and night, and some people are happy and some are worried.

Today, I rested in the middle of the summer and came to Yan's Mansion to chat with Qingge.

"There have been some gossips in the capital recently, do you know?"

Qingge looked at the pouring rain outside the window, and was stunned, "What gossip?" ”

"You haven't forgotten the last time the Flower Temple happened, have you?"

Qingge was excited, and he definitely couldn't forget it, "Haven't you had any results yet?" ”

"No, there's no way to find out, those people did it seamlessly." Banxia shook her head.

"And what does the gossip you say have to do with this?"

"There have been some bad words in the capital, saying that the god of flowers is angry, and the sacrificial ceremony will go wrong."

"Did someone do it on purpose?"

Banxia spread his hands, "Obviously. ”

"Then let it go?" What is the intention of those who let out these words?

"It's not within my power, and I can't help it." Banxia picked up a piece of pastry and put it in her mouth.

"Also, we ordinary people, have nothing to do with us." Qingge continued to be in a daze, it was really boring on a rainy day.

"Miss Qingge, the people from the government outside are looking for Miss Banxia." Dong'er saluted Qingge and replied.

"Did you say anything?" Qingge looked up at the outside of the house, the rain was so heavy, why did he come to find someone at this time, was there something wrong?

"Miss Hui, I didn't say it."

"Forget it, I'll take a look, there must be something, otherwise you wouldn't have come to me here." Banxia stood up and stroked her skirt.

"I'll go with you! It's okay to be idle. Qingge also got up.

The two of them held up an umbrella together and went out of the room.

Outside the gate of the mansion, a servant waited obediently, and was stunned when he saw Qingge, and Qingge also recognized the other party, it was the handsome little brother who invited him to the yamen when the flower goddess had an accident.

Qingge nodded to the other party, which was regarded as a greeting. The other party also smiled back, although I don't know why this girl appeared in Yan's mansion, but it is certain that the relationship with Lord Yan is not ordinary.

"What's wrong, Ah Jing, what's wrong? The rain is so heavy that it comes looking for me. Banxia's expression was slightly anxious.

"Elder Baihua's family is dead, they were killed by thunder, and the whole house is on fire, Lord Fu Yin told you to take a few people to take a look."

"Alright, let's go!"

"Wait, I'll go with you and see if I can help you." Qingge grabbed Banxia's arm.

"Good"

"Ge'er, where are you going with such a heavy rain?" Mrs. Yan looked at Qingge and Banxia at the gate from a distance.

"Mother, there was a murder, I'll go with Banxia to take a look, and I'll be back in a while, don't worry." Qingge shouted to Mrs. Yan in the courtyard, and the three of them stepped into the rain.

"Then be careful!" Madame Yan admonished the distant back.

Elder Baihua's house is located in a house in the east of the city, when Qingge and Banxia arrived, the rain was lighter, and there was a circle of people around, and the house of Elder Baihua's family was extinguished, and the scene was in a mess, black smoke was filled, and some remnants of black scorched wood remained. Qingge frowned, with such a heavy rain, this house could still burn to the ground.

In addition to the people of the yamen, there were also people who accompanied Qingge and Banxia.

The people of the yamen walked around the ruins and carried out the charred corpses, a total of five, one of which was still a child, and the height should be about five or six years old, and several of the corpses had already been burned beyond recognition, and it was impossible to identify.

The people around them gasped when they saw the charred corpse, looking lonely and sad.

"Ah Jing, you go and ask the people around you to see if anyone knows the specific situation."

The servants who were called Ah Jing responded to the questions one by one, and Banxia called them again and began to experience the corpses of several corpses.

Banxia bypassed the crowd, walked closer, and observed carefully.

"Boss, I've asked, the flower aunt next door heard a movement in Elder Baihua's house last night, and said that it was like the flower goddess had appeared, and said...... said...... "Ah Jing stammered, not daring to say anything further.

Banxia's face sank, "What did you say?" ”

"I don't dare to say." Ah Jing's eyes flashed.

"You call Aunt Hua." Banxia saw that Ah Jing's eyes flickered, and his heart must be something taboo.

Banxia took Aunt Hua aside, looked around left and right, and made sure that there was no one else, so she asked.

"Aunt Hua, tell me what you heard yesterday."

"If I say it, I won't be blamed by the flower goddess!" Aunt Hua looked at the few corpses parked on the ground in the distance in horror.

"No, Aunt Hua, the goddess will not harm the people." Banxia hurriedly comforted.

"That, that's okay, I was fetching water at the wall yesterday evening, and suddenly I heard a cry from Elder Baihua's hometown, at first I thought it was the two of them quarreling, so I didn't care, and later, I heard a woman's voice, that voice is the best voice I have ever heard in my life, she said......" Aunt Hua looked left and right, lowered her voice and said in Banxia's ear, "She said that the Great Xia Qi has arrived, and she can't bless the health of the Great Xia people, for the sake of Elder Baihua's dedication to her, she will bring their family to enjoy wealth forever." ”

"Then do you see the appearance of the goddess?" Banxia continued to ask.

"If the old woman is lucky enough to see the goddess, wouldn't it be the ancestral tomb that burns high incense, I really regret it, I was so excited yesterday that I forgot to see the true face of the goddess." Aunt Hua looked sorry.

"Does the goddess have anything else to say?"

"No, I'm afraid that the goddess will accuse me of being disrespectful, so I hurried into the house after hearing two sentences."

"Okay, Aunt Hua, don't tell others about this."

Banxia said two words, and his brows furrowed even tighter.

"What's the problem?" Qingge walked to Banxia's side and looked at Banxia with a depressed face.

Banxia was about to speak, and he walked over.

"Lin catches the head, the results are out. The corpses were three men and two women, their ages and some special marks matched, it was the Elder Baihua family, yes, the time of death should have been at the end of last night to the beginning of the ugly night, and they were indeed killed by lightning, and there were no other injuries on their bodies. ”

After listening to Banxia's words, he didn't say a word, and his face became even more ugly.

"Let's see if there is anything left at the site first, as long as it is man-made, it can't be seamless." Qingge reminded on the side.

"Let's go! You come with me to see it. ”

In a heavy rain, many traces of the scene were washed away, and there were few useful clues.

"Qingge, what do you think this is?"

Qingge turned his head and looked at a black thing in Banxia's hand, with a layer of grease on it, Qingge reached out and took it, put it under his nose and sniffed it, his eyes were shocked.

"Kerose?"

Banxia nodded, and finally found some clues.

Qingge and Banxia were discussing, and I don't know who shouted, "Aunt Hua"

The two turned around together, only to see a flower on Aunt Hua's chest, the flower path part was not in the chest, Aunt Hua had fallen to the ground, Qingge quickly looked around, a man's back was quickly moving away, Qingge chased after him with a brisk step.

The man felt the footsteps behind him, and quickened his pace, Qingge also used all his strength, seeing that the distance was getting farther and farther, Qingge picked up a stone under his feet, threw it out with all his might, and pointed directly at the back of the man's head, the man staggered a few steps, and Qingge ushered in an opportunity. Qingge stepped forward in three steps and two steps, grabbed the other party's arm, and the man turned around with a sharp dagger in the other hand. The dagger stabbed heavily at Qingge's neck, Qingge took a step back, kicked his long legs, and hit the opponent's knee with a kick, the man was in pain and half-knelt down, Qingge followed by another kick, directly kicked the person to the sky, and snatched the dagger from the man's hand, Qingge half-squatted beside the man, aimed the blade at the man's neck, and asked coldly: "Who sent you?" ”

The man stared at Qingge viciously, not saying a word.

Banxia and a cadre of the yamen also caught up, Qingge looked up at Banxia, and handed the dagger into her hand, "The person caught you, you deal with it yourself." ”

Banxia nodded, turned his head and looked at the few people behind him, "Take it back for interrogation." ”

The man was taken up, secretly thinking that if he was caught, he would be an outcast, and now that the task assigned by the organization has been completed, even if he is lucky enough to go back, there is no way to live, so he quietly bites the poison hidden in the back teeth.

"Oh no, he's poisoned."

Banxia reacted and pinched the man's mouth hard, the blood had overflowed, and the manly spirit was dead. The clues that were finally found are now empty, and the indescribable resentment in Banxia's heart, the old man with an unconsciously pulled face.

"Okay, there's always a way." Qingge was also very upset at the moment, those corpses were so naked in front of him, and they were also fresh lives.

"Let's go! Take the body back. Banxia said in a muffled voice.

The rain began to fall again, and neither of them spoke, just walking quietly in the rain, Banxia felt a dull heart, and tears fell.

"Qingge, have you ever felt a sense of powerlessness? Is it the kind of feeling that you watch the bad guys get away with in front of you but can't get back, and that kind of loved ones fall in front of you and you can't get back to the feeling? ”

Qingge didn't answer, only stretched out his hand and hugged Banxia and patted her shoulder.

"Before I came here, I had a mentor, he was the captain of the criminal investigation team, because he captured a gangster drug lord who was wiped out, he was also a family of five, and he also had a lovely grandson...... Is it because I don't choose this profession that I can't see the ugly side of this world? ”

As a police officer, Banxia wants to be responsible for every life, but things often don't go as you want, and it makes you miserable.

"Banxia, I haven't experienced the pain you experienced, but no matter what time and space you are in, what you call it, what you do is the same, and there are people who need you, so don't be discouraged."

Qingge didn't know how to comfort people, and only held Banxia's hand to give her confidence and courage.

"Qingge, thank you."

Banxia replied with a sweet smile, and the two of them moved forward firmly step by step.
