To sum up, this is the routine operation of many local cults and cults, and it is indeed a bit far-fetched to find some connections with Manman and her mother doing evil things.

Generally speaking, the believers of evil and religion all believe in a kind of "immortal" life, no disease and no disaster, and life is smooth sailing, but there is no content that pretends to be a god and has anything to do with yin and yang spells.

But there is one thing I can't ignore, this stepmother has been dead for three years, and the stepmother had a bad relationship with her during her lifetime, so is there any other conflict between the two of them, and this conflict leads to the source of evil?

I immediately called Mrs. Qian back and told her that so far I could not find conclusive evidence to prove that Manman had behaved abnormally, and that this Lianshen Cult may not have much to do with her, but I will continue to investigate later, and I will contact Mrs. Qian again when I have news.

At the same time, I also asked Mrs. Qian if she knew anything that was not written in the information.

Mrs. Qian did not hesitate, and directly said her inference, she thought that before Manman's stepmother's death, Manman knew about her religion, and she also dragged Manman to believe in religion together, so Manman's ears and eyes have become very evil, at least she is not a simple person.

Mrs. Qian said this, but I didn't say anything, and I promised her that I would continue to investigate the matter.

Putting down the phone, I sorted out my thoughts, and immediately rushed to the hotel to discuss the connection between these situations with Zhao Heizi, in fact, what I was interested in was not that Manman's stepmother believed in Liantheism, but that Manman's hometown was in Huailu.

Huailu seems to have an indissoluble bond with me in the dark, and I can't judge whether the so-called fate is a bad fate or a coincidence, so I decided to go to Huailu again to find out Manman's situation, and I want to see Huang Jin again.

Zhao Heizi also agreed with my decision, and he also believed that there was definitely an important connection between Man Man and these cases, even if these connections were not particularly clear, and they could be seen with the naked eye.

After that, I called Luo Fei, Zhu Chen, and Team Leader Yang respectively and asked them about the cases of the Lianshen Sect, whether there were any special cases related to local cults and religions that the police station had accepted in recent years, or whether there were unsolved cases that had not been solved so far.

They quickly arranged for the staff of the police station to go through a lot of files, and finally replied to me that in the past five years, there were indeed three cases related to the Lianshen Cult, but they were similar to the situation written in the information given to me by Mrs. Qian before, and they were not difficult cases.

From their standpoint as criminal policemen to analyze cases related to the Religion of God, believers are nothing more than greedy for life and fear of death, eager to enjoy the ethereal life of immortality, and those missionaries are also in line with the psychology of "people are afraid of death", in the name of missionary wealth wantonly, to put it bluntly, this is a fraud case, not bizarre.

In the end, I told Team Leader Yang that I had decided to go to Huailu in the near future, hoping that he would be able to provide me with assistance at that time, and he readily agreed.

In addition, he also told me that as for the two directions I asked him to track before, I have not received any news that the body or bones have been found.

I explained to him that he shouldn't spend too much time staring, in fact, for us at present, it doesn't mean much to find a corpse or bones, in short, the plan of the Nightmare Organization has blossomed everywhere, and there can be no breakthrough if it is found, and if it is found, then go with the flow and speculate on the direction of the next case through the corpse or bones.

At this time, it was already afternoon, and after thinking about it, I decided to call Xue Xiaxia, ask her out for dinner, and ask her about the Lianshen Sect by the way, she has handled a lot of cases over there, and she should be able to find some parties related to the Lianshen Sect.

The most important thing is to take this opportunity to ease up with her.

I dialed her number, took a deep breath, and waited for her to answer the phone in a heartbeat.

The phone rang six or seven times and then it was connected.

"What's wrong?"

Listening to her calm tone, I breathed a sigh of relief, "Well, that...... You're about to get off work, do you have time to have a meal together, I haven't seen you for a long time. I smiled innocently, and I didn't know what to say later.

"Not tonight, another day, I'll go to a party's house later."

Fortunately, she said another day! I secretly patted my chest.

"Is there something wrong with you?" She seemed to be able to read my mind.

I was stunned for a moment, "It's nothing, I just want to ask you out for dinner." ”

"Did you have another case?" Her tone was worried, and I was moved.

"Well, I'd like to ask if you've been exposed to any cases related to the Cult of the Gods?"

"Lian God Cult? She asked suspiciously, "It sounds like it should be a local cult, yes." ”

"The situation I have at the moment is related to it, so I want you to check it out and see if you can give me some hints."

Xue Xiaxia thought about it carefully, "That's it, you wait for me to finish the matter at hand and check it out for you, there are no cases related to cults or cults that I haven't taken over at present, I can help you check it from other channels." ”

"Then thank you, you don't have to worry, I'll talk about it when you're done."

"I know."

I hung up the phone like this, I was still a little foggy, and I was really not sure if the other party's current attitude towards me was angry and complaining, or if it didn't matter if I was already impatient.

I dare not deny that I do have special feelings for her, and You Lao's words also remind me at all times that I must not easily invest in a relationship, I am an exorcist.

It's been two days, and Xue Xiaxia didn't ask me out.

In the morning, I was driving to the hotel, and when I passed the intersection, I suddenly remembered to go to the Molu Bookstore to have a look, so I drove the car over with one foot of the brake.

I saw that the bookstore had opened, and I was excited, and it was really as the decorator said, the decoration was very fast, but it depended on when the owner was willing to open the door.

I parked the car and walked briskly into the bookstore.

"Mr. Zhang, you're here." Ma Yuan, who was sitting behind the cash register, was the first to greet me.

I looked at him, and at the same time saw the decoration of the entire bookstore behind him, my scalp suddenly tingled, my feet seemed to be frozen, standing motionless, stunned to see the whole bookstore after the redecoration.

This is clearly the decoration made with Mike's design, although I don't remember all the contents of the design drawing, but before Mike took the design drawing and explained to me little by little the decoration effect of each part, I now put them all together, is what it looks like in front of me.

The style of the decoration, the color system, including the features, especially the lamps used, I remember Mike said before that the lamps used were Mediterranean style, but he added some Soviet-style features.

That's exactly what the lamp above me is.

Unless Ma Yuan is a roundworm in Mike's stomach, how could he make the exact same decoration, then there is only one possibility, the previous design was obtained by him, or he copied the design and then "put" the design into Mike's corpse.

The blueprint of the cremation along with Mike's body was supposed to be the original, but by that time the content had been completely plagiarized by him.

A gloomy and angry spontaneous arose, I glared at Ma Yuan angrily, I couldn't help but clench my fists, this yin and yang weird guy, he finally became a little violent, revealing his evil nature, and even said that he was blatantly provoking me, with a kind of banter, completely ignoring me, and his disdain for life.

Mike, a young designer, died at the hands of Ma Yuan.

"Mr. Zhang, what's wrong? Early in the morning, I showed that my liver was hot, did I encounter something unpleasant these days? Ma Yuan smiled, "Can you tell me, maybe I can give you a little comfort." ”

Hearing him say this, my hands were a little helpless to let go, he was an old fox, very good at reading words and feelings, and my slight emotional changes were seen in his eyes.

"Boss Ma, your bookstore was being renovated a few days ago, I came over to pick out a few books with my cousin, they said they couldn't contact you, and they didn't know when you opened, what a coincidence, I happened to pass by you today and opened for business."

I looked at him with a sneer, I really couldn't help it, and immediately faced him with a calm mind, because when I saw his disdainful smile, I would think of Mike, who died violently because of him, and the truck driver.

And because of the loss of that blueprint, my bar had to be postponed.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Zhang, because of the inconvenience caused by the renovation, are you interested in picking up a few books to take back today?" Ma Yuan smiled apologetically, and stood up, looking very humble, this is just his superb acting skills.

"Boss Ma, I don't understand that your bookstore hasn't been open for a long time, why are you in a hurry to renovate?"

"Hahaha, where did Mr. Zhang see that I was in a hurry? Is it just because I didn't open long ago that I changed the decoration again? ”

Ma Yuan picked up the purple sand teapot, "You haven't known me for long, naturally you don't know me well, I'm actually a person who likes to change, and it's just my habit to redecorate the bookstore in a short period of time." ”

I sneered and nodded, "Boss Ma is rich and idle, but I like the renovated bookstore, this design was bought from a well-known designer, right?" ”

I deliberately set him up, but he shook his head without hesitation and explained seriously, "Mr. Zhang was wrong, the design drawings were drawn by myself, which made you laugh." ”

It's really shameless, plagiarized Mike's design manuscript, and dared to say that it was designed by himself.

"Boss Ma is really versatile, he can even get design drawings, why don't I ask Boss Ma to design for me when I decorate another day?"
