At half past seven in the evening, Mu Yuan got out of the taxi and came to the address given by Liu Yihang. This is a relatively old community, presumably a family housing community allocated by the government to public officials in the early years. At the supermarket at the entrance of the community, Mu Yuan bought some fruit casually, and it was always bad to come to the door empty-handed for the first time.

As soon as Mu Yuan walked into the community, the mobile phone rang, and he took out his mobile phone to see that it was actually a crayfish calling.

"Master, you're so handsome!" The excited screams of the crayfish came, and the ears of the shocked Makihara were buzzing.

"What's wrong?" Mu Yuan asked, it seems that he hasn't agreed to accept her as an apprentice, why is he commensurate with his master.

"Master, you must teach me that fire chasing magic trick of yours! Boss...... Get me ten boxes, I want ten boxes, yes, ten boxes. ”

There was a bit of noise on the crayfish's side, as if they were shopping. Ten boxes? What are the ten boxes? Mu Yuan thought, could it be ten boxes of eggs? One box is eight, and ten boxes are eighty, is this girl going to confinement.

"Master, don't talk about it, I'll go back and contact right away, but it's okay, I'll practice, you have to take me, and then teach me that fire chasing magic!"

Mu Yuan shook his head and smiled bitterly, I guess I will be busy in the future, this momentum of wind and fire, where is there a little calmness and calmness that a magician should have. If something goes wrong when performing on stage, it is estimated that you may cry.

Standing at the door and knocking, soon someone opened the door, it was a middle-aged woman in her forties, with short curly hair, a pair of glasses on the bridge of her nose, an apron, and a kind smile on her face.

"Hello, may I ask ...... Liu"

"You're Muyuan!" The middle-aged woman interrupted Makihara's questioning, please ask first.

"Yes!" Makihara nodded.

"Come in!" The middle-aged woman greeted her warmly, and then shouted loudly into the room: "Lao Liu, Mu Yuan is here!" ”

"Please come in, please come in!" Liu Yihang greeted him, and wiped his hands with his apron, as if he was helping in the kitchen.

"Section Chief Liu, hello, excuse me!" Mu Yuan said politely and handed over the fruit in his hand.

Liu Yihang glanced at it and saw that it was an ordinary fruit, not an expensive thing, so he took it and put it aside, "Please come in!" Don't call Section Chief Liu at home, I'm a lot older than you, just call Uncle Liu, it shouldn't be an exaggeration! ”

"Okay, Uncle Liu!" Mu Yuan nodded, Liu Yihang is indeed the age of his father, and Mu Yuan is also very smooth.

"You sit down for a while! I'll go to the kitchen and get busy! Liu Yihang said, poured a glass of water for Mu Yuan, and went into the kitchen again.

Mu Yuan put the teacup on the coffee table and looked around, this is an ordinary family room, the living area is very large, there is no too luxurious decoration, but it is cleaned up, revealing the atmosphere of a cultural family everywhere.

Suddenly, a door opened, and a thin old man walked out.

The old man was about seventy years old, with a slightly dark complexion, a pair of reading glasses on the bridge of his nose, and a red rope tied around the temples that hung behind his head. Because at home, the old man wears a little casually, a pair of black pants, with a white shirt with a slight yellow, the waist is not hunched, the legs are not trembling, and he is very steady.

However, I don't know if it's the reason for the slippers, but Makihara observed that one of the old man's shoes didn't follow his feet very well, and there was a feeling of dragging.

"Hello, grandpa! Excuse me! Makihara hurriedly stood up and greeted politely.

"You are the Muyuan that Yihang said, sit, please sit!" The old man smiled and nodded, beckoning Mu Yuan to sit down again, "I'm Yihang's father, I heard Yihang mention you yesterday, and I was a little curious about you, so I invited you to come and sit at home!" ”

Mu Yuan was stunned, it turned out that this was the person Liu Yihang wanted to introduce, his father.

"Listen to Yihang, you have a unique identification method for the crime scene?" Old Man Liu asked while looking at Mu Yuan.

"This ......" Mu Yuan was stunned, he didn't expect Liu Yihang to talk about this at home.

"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself, my person Liu Yingqu, who used to work in criminal investigation related units, is now retired at home and pretends to be a criminal investigation consultant!" Old Man Liu saw Mu Yuan's doubts and explained: "Yihang can also be regarded as a son inheriting his father's business and taking my old path!" ”

"Oh, it turns out that Liu Lao is also an expert in criminal forensics!" Makihara said.

"Hey, experts can't talk about it, it's just a waste of life, I've seen a lot, and I'm just a little experience!" Liu Yingqu waved his hand and said, "However, I am quite interested in some of your views!" ”

"Old Liu, I'm still young, I'm more curious about some things, I read a few books casually, and I'm young and frivolous, talking nonsense!" Makihara explained.

"Really?" Old Man Liu smiled and said, "I see that you have a lot of insights when you analyze the theory of spontaneous combustion of spirit runes today!" ”

Mu Yuan was stunned for a moment and asked, "Old man, have you also studied spells before?" ”

"Studied!" Liu Yingqu didn't hide it, "I've seen too much!" ”

"Like today?" Mu Yuan's heart tightened, and he asked anxiously.

Liu Yingqu smiled, in front of him, the old fox, the little fox finally showed his tail, so he said: "Today, I think about it, it seems to be ...... I've seen it too! ”

Makihara also knew that he was a little too anxious, so he asked tentatively, "Then do you believe this?" ”

"Believe!" Liu Yingqu nodded with a smile, "People have lived for a long time, they have encountered more things, and many things that were originally thought impossible have become possible, so there are more and more things to believe!" ”

"And what have you seen?" Makihara asked.

"Hehehe!" Liu Yingqu smiled, took off his reading glasses, carefully folded them and put them in his pocket, and then tapped Mu Yuan with his finger and said, "You little guy, you are really clever, you didn't say a word about the questions I asked, but you kept putting my old man's mouth!" ”

"Ugh!" Makihara didn't know how to answer.

"Eat, eat, eat first!" Liu Yingqu stood up and walked to the restaurant with his hands behind his back, "Let's talk slowly after eating, but if you hide it again, my old man won't have anything to say, after all, I'm old, my memory is not very good, I'm old and old!" ”

Mu Yuan shook his head helplessly, it seems that it is really not so easy to deal with these old foxes.

Walking into the restaurant, the table was already full of food, and Makihara didn't want to eat it in vain, so he took the initiative to help set up the tableware. But Old Man Liu took out a small wine cup, didn't greet others, poured a glass himself, and slowly tasted it.

Although the meal was very sumptuous, and the Liu family was very hospitable, Mu Yuan ate very tastelessly, and he was always thinking about the conversation with Old Man Liu just now, thinking about how to deal with him for a while, and how to get some news.

Finally, when dinner was over, Old Man Liu took a sip of tea, and then slowly paced to the study with a purple clay pot.

"Come with me, little one!" Old man Liu said.

"Okay!" Mu Yuan stood up, thanked Liu Yihang and his wife again, and then followed.

It is a study room of only 20 square meters, with a desk, two chairs, and bookshelves inlaid on the walls on all four sides. In addition to the bookshelf densely packed with books, there are also some human bones, globes and other objects, like a small library. Presumably, this is where Liu Yihang's father and son usually pass the time.

"Little one, have you thought about it?" After Old Man Liu motioned for Mu Yuan to sit down, he asked leisurely.

"Think of what?" Makihara is an advisor.

"They all say that they are young and frivolous, and they are open-mouthed, but you don't look like it at all!" Old Man Liu smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll show you something first, first, to dispel your concerns, and second, to make our two of us vomit!" ”

As he spoke, Old Man Liu opened a cabinet in the corner of the wall and took out a thick book of materials from it, which was the kind of handmade dossier, colorful and green, with all kinds of paper and colors, and a thick stack, as if it had been copied and collected by hand.
