Chapter 54: The Unexpected
The sun rises quickly, and after a while, the warm sunlight dispels the sea fog and sprinkles it on people, warm.
"Sir, good morning"
"You're early, too."
Lin Xucheng heard the voice and turned around and found that it was the female teacher who had a crush on Wang Xiaoming.
He also breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that the water ghost hadn't bothered the others after he suddenly fled last night.
The water ghost didn't bother with anyone else, could it be that he disappeared after being kicked away by himself last night?
Or is it true that the water ghost is satisfied with only finding Joseph as a stand-in?
……
"Senior brother, it's early!"
Lin Xucheng just returned to the police station and found that Wang Xiaoming was very diligent and began to prepare meals, Wang Xiaoming, who had never been in the kitchen since his mother's womb, naturally couldn't compare with Lin Xucheng.
"Morning, did anything strange happen last night?" Lin Xucheng asked pointedly.
"Strange thing, no" Wang Xiaoming's eyes rolled upward, thought hard for a while, and shook his head.
Then he asked in surprise: "Senior brother, why didn't you come back last night?" …… You can't just touch that thing! ”
Lin Xucheng didn't answer him, and lightly diverted the topic: "What about the master?" ”
"Drinking tea inside~" Wang Xiaoming pointed to the police station, and could see Lu Xian holding a teacup, exhaling behind his back, taking a sip, and spitting out tea residues.
He secretly said in his heart: "I was the only one who escaped death last night, and the water ghost must think that I have mana that is difficult to deal with, so I retreat first, but this is definitely not a long-term solution, and the next time the water ghost attacks again, there will definitely be a problem." ”
Lin Xucheng walked into the police station, he didn't sleep all night, he was a little sleepy, but he didn't feel sleepy.
"What, I didn't sleep well last night?" Seeing that Lin Xucheng was in poor spirits with a dark face, the old man asked with a smile.
"I hit a ghost" He knows that people of Lu Xian's age believe more and don't believe less, unlike Bai Lihong, who adheres to the concept of "science" and doesn't believe anything.
"Poof! Phew! Lu Xian didn't hold the cup in his hand, and was poured a mouthful of hot tea.
He spat out hot water, sprayed tea residues out, and stretched out his scalded tongue, drooping in the cool breeze.
"Don't tell me! I don't want to know, and you don't even say you know me! He lifted his ass and wanted to leave.
"Last night it was raining, and I and ten other students met a water ghost, and one of them was possessed by a water ghost, but I repelled it and now disappears without a trace. The other nine have already gone home. ”
Lin Xucheng stared at Lu Xian and said, "Master, this water ghost is very troublesome, if we don't prepare, there will definitely be victims." ”
"You fought off the water ghosts?" Lu Xian sat back and looked at Lin Xucheng.
"I haven't introduced myself yet, the orthodox descendant of the Maoshan faction, the thirty-ninth generation disciple."
"Today's young people, it's amazing" Lu Xian sighed, he is a policeman and a Taoist priest, and he can live well in this world.
"Since you can catch ghosts, it's easy to do, what do you say, we'll do it."
The speed at which Lu Xian agreed exceeded Lin Xucheng's expectations, and the reason for the persuasion he was preparing had not yet been said.
"The water ghost must be eliminated, I will prepare some spells today, and I will also ask my senior brother for the spell of chasing the ghost, we will take the lead to destroy the water ghost!" In public and private, Lin Xucheng must kill this water ghost.
"Sir, you are responsible for finding a way to get the commissioner to agree to block the beach in Sai Wan."
"It's hard!" Lu Xian was worried.
If people don't come to Sai Wan Beach during the summer vacation, won't it cut off the financial road of Sai Wan villagers? Cutting off people's wealth is like killing parents, before Wang Xiaoming walked on the beach, he was arrested by the villagers and pressed to the police station to make a big fuss.
No one believes ghosts.
"Humph!"
The two were talking, and a cold snort came from beside them.
Bai Lihong, Sheriff Bai was glaring at Lin Xucheng: "Feudal superstition!" ”
"Dam Bai, this is definitely not a feudal superstition, we ......" Lu Xian wanted to explain, but Sergeant Bai didn't want to listen at all, so he turned around and left: "Wang Xiaoming asked me to inform you that it's time for breakfast." ”
"Okay, eat first, and then talk after eating!" Lu Xian shook his head helplessly.
It's not just that the director doesn't believe it, but this madam is also a problem.
Lin Xucheng was tired for a night, and at this time, he was hungry and desperate for energy.
At the dinner table, Wang Xiaoming asked about Lin Xucheng's experience last night, because of Sheriff Bai's stinky face, Lin Xucheng and Lu Xian played Tai Chi left and right, and Wang Xiaoming couldn't ask the key to the bottom of the matter.
After breakfast, Lin Xucheng returned to his residence and took a cloth bag, and finally fell asleep on the table unable to bear the sleepiness.
When he woke up again, the sun was setting in the west, and it was already about three o'clock in the afternoon.
"Whew, it's miserable to sleep until night"
Lin Xucheng took out yellow paper, cinnabar, and wolf pen, and hurriedly began to write symbols.
By four o'clock, there were only five talismans that could be used, but they should be enough to deal with the water ghosts.
After writing the talisman, he took the phone and called Li Tight.
After explaining the situation, Li Jian gave countermeasures, and in his eyes, the water ghost was only a small trouble.
Lin Xucheng used a notebook to write down all the required materials and steps.
It is always his creed to strike first, wildfires are inexhaustible, and the spring breeze blows and is born again is the bridge he hates the most.
"Xiao Ming, help me go to the villagers to buy some materials" Lin Xucheng attached two banknotes.
"Yes, senior brother!" Wang Xiaoming was lacking an excuse to escape from the female teacher at this time.
As soon as Wang Xiaoming left, he saw Sheriff Bai and Lu running in a hurry.
"What did the Director say?" Lin Xucheng asked hurriedly.
"Say? What a! The Director is dead! Lu Xian burst into foul mouth, and the situation had exceeded his expectations.
"What?" Lin Xu stood up, and the chair under his buttocks "slammed" and was pouted to the ground.
"Let's take a look!"
Lu Xian saw that Lin Xucheng was hanging on the table with the newly written Huang Fu in his heart, and Sheriff Bai was the opposite, disgusted with him even more.
Knowing that Lin Xucheng is a "master", Lu Xian is of course working extra hard to protect his life, and his old body is faster than the earth dog at the head of the village, but fortunately, Lin Xucheng has good physical strength to keep up.
They came to Inspector Chan's residence.
"The house is locked from the inside" Lu Xian said: "Today, the commissioner did not come to the police station in the morning, and MDAM Bai came to look for him and found that there was no movement inside, so MDAM Bai looked for me again, we knocked on the door outside for a long time, there was no movement inside, and we broke the door in a hurry"
Lu Xian pointed to the broken doorknob.
Then he saw the Director lying on the ground, covered in water.
"The house doesn't leak rain, and the director has no clothes on him, so he should have taken a shower in the bathroom at that time," Sergeant Bai analyzed: "But his death is very strange, and only a forensic examination can determine the situation." ”
"No need to check, it's a water ghost" Lin Xucheng squatted down, wiped a little water on the ground, and touched it with his tongue.
"Ridiculous!" Sergeant Bai directly interrupted Lin Xucheng's words: "This is a murder case, don't use your superstition to deceive!" ”
"Maadam Bai, does the director take a bath in seawater?"
It's salty and astringent, it's seawater.
Moreover, Director Chen was obviously drowned, and his body was white and swollen, just like the female corpse on the beach before.
Lin Xucheng ignored the unsuperstitious madam white, and said to Lu Xian: "Master, the body will be sent to the police station first, and then sent to Dongwan for inspection tomorrow."
