Yao Xia nodded vigorously, as if he understood Shen Yu's inference.

"Yes...... The anger in my heart seemed to be dissipated at once, so I quickly hid in the doorstack of an old house next to me. The strange thing was dressed in colorful clothes, and its neck was bloody and fleshy, and it fluttered through the alley. I could hear its footsteps.

"It took me a long time before I dared to come out, and I remembered that I had heard the neighbors talk about evil spirits in the town asking for their lives. I was still wondering if there was some wicked person who was going to be unlucky, at this time, looking at the rolling pin in my hand, a thought suddenly popped into my mind - even if Shang Weimin is not good, he is also my biological father, if I beat my biological father, will I also become a wicked person?

"When I think about it, I suddenly don't have that anger. I waited for no movement outside, then slipped out of the alley, went home, put down my rolling pin, and told my mom not to tell anyone I was back—I didn't want the ghost to know that I had ever thought about doing something to my father.

"Then I pedaled my bike back to school – unexpectedly, the next day I got the news that Shang Weimin was missing. I was startled and quickly called my mother, who was crying on the other end of the phone, she thought it was me who had caused the trouble that night, and I explained it to her, but she didn't listen. She said that the police had been coming to me frequently recently, telling me not to go back...... Mom must have suffered a lot these days......"

"Don't worry, this case will be eyebrow-raising soon." Lin Ying comforted him and said, "The police are not as confused as you think, since the case is in our hands, we will definitely get to the bottom of it, no matter whether it is a person or a ghost who committed the crime." ”

Yao Xia stood up and said goodbye to us, and bowed slightly as he left, which seemed to say: Please.

"Are you talking too much?" I watched him walk away and asked Lin Ying, "If it's a ghost who committed the crime, can you catch it?" ”

"Don't make trouble," Xiao Yu took over, "Where are the ghosts in the world?" ”

"If there are no ghosts, then there are asuras?"

Xiao Yu almost laughed out loud: "Teacher Yan, have you read too many novels?" ”

"Well, if you don't believe me, then I'll be relieved." I said with a sigh of relief.

"Let's go," Lin Ying stood up, "Don't sit still, hurry up and investigate the case." ”

"Investigating the case? Where to go? I asked.

"Yuntang Street, let's see how Mr. Shen solves the mystery of the disappearance of the flower-clothed ghost for us." Lin Ying looked at Shen Yu and said.

"No, I think it is better to check the property of the three deceased and find out this, so as to open the door to the truth." Shen Yu shook his head and said.

"As for the property, I told Shi Chong to let him check before I came. Don't worry, if I can't even think of this, then what kind of policeman am I? Lin Ying smiled and said, "Let's go to Yuntang Street first, right?" ”

"Did he find out anything?" Shen Yu asked.

"It's not easy to check, these three people are not living a normal life, one is addicted to gambling, one is lustful, and the other is greedy for alcohol, the first thing that can be determined is that although they are all demolition households, they do not have much savings or financial management in the bank. They all like to keep cash on hand so that it is convenient to spend. But the strange thing is ......"

"There's not much cash found in their house, has it?" Shen Yu asked.

Lin Ying nodded: "They do still have some cash at home, but it is not a lot. For example, Luo Laosong, there is a dirty glove box under his bed, and there is a plastic bag under the glove box, and 70,000 or 80,000 yuan has been turned out of the pocket. The other two also have tens of thousands of dollars left in their families, but compared to the demolition money they got, there is still a big gap in the money and I don't know where to go. However, this also seems to be normal, such as how much Lu Xianheng lost in gambling, how much money Luo Laosong threw on women, and Shang Weimin was drunk every day, and he didn't even count how much money he had......"

"So, you know, right?" Shen Yu said, "There are so many people in Yuntang Town, why are the three of them killed? People often only see the superficial situation, that is, the three of them are not the masters of living a good life. In addition, there are flower-clothed ghosts who come out from time to time, which will create the impression that bad people will be retributed.

"However, if there is really a self-proclaimed 'messenger of justice' who wants to get rid of the three people for the guys in the town who 'eliminate violence and peace', he will definitely not hide it, or deliberately create the illusion that these people died accidentally, he should hope to expand his influence, make it more ceremonial, and more deterrent, because this kind of person always feels in his heart that what he has done is just, righteous, normal, and even worthy of praise and praise.

"But the reality is the opposite, the murderer obviously wants everyone to think that the three of them have an accident, or because of bad fate, or God condemns them, or they have died themselves - I'm sure that if it is not necessary, the murderer is actually unwilling to even create the character of the flower ghost."

"Huh?" I was dumbfounded, "But judging from the situation before the death of Luo Laosong and Shang Weimin, the murderer seems to be eager to let the ghost in flower clothes jump out and make a storm in the town." ”

"yes, didn't I just say that. That's the flower-clad ghost who needs to come out, and has to come out. Shen Yu shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's getting dark, are you still going to Yuntang Street?" ”

"Go!" Lin Ying knocked on the table with a coffee cup, "I just said to go, you broke it up and went elsewhere!" ”

"When did I get a hit? I'm getting down to business. Shen Yu stared at her with round eyes.

"Okay, okay, our Teacher Shen has always been right, okay?"

"It's pretty much the same, why don't you hurry up?" Shen Yu snatched the half-drunk latte from my hand, then lifted me up by the collar and said.

……

When I arrived at Yuntang Street, night had fallen, this was also the time when the street was lively, there were many customers in the stalls and small shops, the office workers who had just returned from the city and the workers who had been busy all day had taken advantage of the evening to relax a little, there were people who went to the night market, there were people who had appointments to eat, and of course, there were people like us, who had nothing to do to come out to investigate the case......

I was squeezed behind by a group of aunts, Xiao Yu glanced at me, deliberately squatted down to tie his shoes, and waited for Shen Yu and Lin Ying to walk away in front of him.

"What are you doing?" I stopped and asked her, "Your shoes are velcro, you don't need to tie them, do you?" ”

"Wait for you," Xiao Yushen mysteriously stood up and grabbed me, "Teacher Yan, you go slowly, there is something I want to ask you-do you think that Teacher Shen has been in a weird state recently, very jumpy, and he has jumped several times today, one moment cold, and the other moment angry." ”

I originally thought that she had discovered the difference between Shen Yu and Hua Yu's state, but what I didn't expect was that what she said was the change in state on the same day. But when she reminded me, I found out that it was.
