Qi Lei was shocked by Xu Ran's question, stunned, and looked at him with some doubts.

The boy looked at him timidly for a long time, then buried his head and pressed the ballpoint pen restlessly with his fingers.

"Don't be afraid, after you tell us, the police uncle can help you."

Xu Ran's attitude was still mild.

After waiting for a long time, the child said sullenly: "I heard Fan Xiaoer talking." ”

After he finished speaking, Qi Lei's expression was a little grotesque, as if he was deeply skeptical.

"Anything else?" Xu Ran asked again.

The child raised his head in some surprise and looked at him: "Do you believe me?" ”

The corners of Xu Ran's mouth hooked: "Of course I believe it." ”

The child's eyes brightened for a moment.

It can be seen that he should have told his mother, Sister-in-law Tian, about this when he returned home, but apparently no one believed what he said.

"It's heavy on my back, like it's crushing a person."

The child's voice is a little hoarse, which is caused by the wrong way of blindly breathing through the throat when he has exercised too much all year round.

The crisp words echoed through the small room, and suddenly melted into the silent air.

Qi Lei opened his mouth: "Then I just ......"

"Anything else?"

Xu Ran didn't look at him, but he had already interrupted, as if he didn't want him to say anything more in front of the child.

Qi Lei glanced at him and silently silenced.

The child did not hesitate and shook his head.

"Then why did you fall?"

Li Wuyuan, who had been speechless, suddenly threw out a key question lightly.

Because she was standing, the child looked up at her when he heard the sound, and her beautiful facial features were reflected in her bright and ignorant eyes.

"I heard Fan Xiaoer talking next to my ear, I was startled, and finally I fell down."

The other party's voice was a little trembling and hesitant, and it seemed that he still had lingering palpitations.

Li Wuyuan: "Then did you hear what he said?" ”

The child was silent for a long time, and whispered sadly, "Take me home." ”

Qi Lei felt his scalp explode.

"What else?" Li Wuyuan said.

The child shook his head.

Xu Ran thought for a moment, and said to Qi Lei: "Let's go to the next one." ”

Qi Lei's mind was a little messy, but he still did it.

He took the two out of Tian's sister-in-law's house, and then found several families of injured children, shy and coaxed to hide from the parents when they saw the children, asked them one by one, and basically came to three conclusions.

First, I felt very heavy on my back before I fell; secondly, they all heard the voice of the deceased, and the content of the speech was the same; Thirdly, they were so frightened by the sound of the dead that they broke off and fell off the ladder.

Seeing that it was approaching dusk, Qi Lei proposed to come back tomorrow to investigate, at this time, the three of them just passed by Fan Xiaoer's house, the Fan family originally lost their beloved son, Fan Bin still stayed in Shipu Town to discuss the law, Xu Ran thought about it again, and still felt that it was better not to bother for the time being.

However, when he walked to the courtyard next to Fan's house, Xu Ran's eyes were attracted by the yellow talismans glued everywhere in the courtyard, and he stopped.

Li Wuyuan also glanced at it curiously, and his eyebrows, which were half-covered by the hood, revealed a little mystery.

"What's that?"

"This family's surname is Shi," Qi Lei stopped with them and explained:

"Shi Cheng, the child of this family, is Fan Xiaoer's tablemate, and the relationship should be very good. However, it is also said to be the most seriously injured ......"

Li Wuyuan put his hands in his pockets, walked slowly to the edge of the courtyard, and looked at the yellow talisman fluttering in the wind on the old fence.

Then he reached out and casually peeled it off.

Xu Ran frowned slightly: "Hey, don't mess with other people's things." ”

Li Wuyuan looked at the yellow talisman in his hand repeatedly, and was about to open his mouth with contempt, when he suddenly heard the gate in the courtyard squeak open-

"Evil obstacles! Look at the moves! ”

As soon as Li Wuyuan looked up, he saw a large piece of black-red liquid suddenly spilled in the air, mixed with a strong fishy smell and falling down on her.

She was stunned for a moment, and was about to turn into a cat and dodge away, when suddenly there was a strong force on her arm, and a figure pulled her into her arms to protect her, and used her back to hold the sudden basin of unknown liquid.

Li Wuyuan heard a strong heartbeat that was close at hand, slowed down, raised his head, and saw Xu Ran's blood-soaked shoulders and curly hair, as well as the expression of regret like eating.

"Lean ......"

Xu Ran frowned consciously, was his brain broken? Why did you come and block it for her?

"Evil Barrier!"

The annoying voice that had just now sounded again.

A few people turned their faces to look, only to see a Taoist man in his fifties walking out of the courtyard of the Shi family, with a sparse top of his head, close to baldness, wearing a black cloth horse coat, and holding a talisman and a basin in his hand.

The moment Li Wuyuan saw him, his eyes turned into vertical pupils, and a subtle whisper of warning belonging to a cat gradually came out of his throat, and the corners of his mouth were slightly pulled, as if he wanted to show his sharp teeth.

Seeing this, Xu Ran rubbed her head, and then whispered to the top of her head:

"Stupid cat, don't be impulsive just yet."

Qi Lei hurriedly blocked it, and crossed between the old road and Xu Ran: "Who dares to attack the police!" ”

"Assault on the police?"

Lao Dao, who had just walked out of the courtyard gate, was stunned, glanced at Qi Lei's dress up and down, and was very surprised:

"Police?"

"Nonsense!" After Qi Lei finished speaking, he felt that the soles of his feet were a little sticky, and when he lowered his head, he was almost smoked to death by the smell of blood that rushed to the sky.

"What did you spill?!"

"Black dog blood," before Lao Dao could answer, Xu Ran spoke first.

He turned around and glanced at Lao Dao meaninglessly:

"If you are not a member of the Shi family, you must be a charlatan."

"Hey?" Lao Dao was forced to be anxious by his statement, and pointed to Xu Ran's nose.

"You young man looks like a gentleman with glasses, how can you just say it!"

As he spoke, his eyes slanted slightly, and his gaze fell on Li Wuyuan behind Xu Ran.

"This girl ......"

He was just about to lean over to take a closer look, but Xu Ran quietly turned sideways, blocking Li Wuyuan behind.

"Daochang Zhang!"

Another middle-aged man ran out of the Shi family, this person was Shi Cheng's father Shi Changsheng.

When he saw Qi Lei, he was stunned: "Officer Qi? Why are you here? ”

Seeing Xu Ran who was drenched again, he sighed: "What's the matter?" What's going on? ”

"You ask him!" Qi Lei replied angrily.

I saw Zhang Siyang, who was honored by Shi Changsheng as Zhang Daochang, glanced at Xu Ran a few times, straightened his spine, and said vaguely:

"Then how did I know they were policemen? Those who don't know are not guilty, and besides, who asked her to move my spirit rune first? ”

"Talismans?"

Xu Ran took the yellow talisman in Li Wuyuan's hand, looked at it slightly through the lenses of his glasses, hooked his lips and sneered: "This kind of five cents can wholesale a pile of torn paper?" ”

"You fart!"

Zhang Siyang was very angry, if he grew a beard, he should be blown into the sky by himself at this time.

Xu Ran was a cut taller than him, taking a step closer, and his movements were sven, but his momentum did not lose to him.

"Who scolded first?"

"Okay, okay......" Qi Lei hurriedly intervened between the two again, acting as a peacemaker.

"It's all a misunderstanding, Xu Ran, the back of your clothes is all wet, let's go back to the guest house to change our clothes first, so as not to catch a cold at night."

"That...... If you don't mind, go to my house and change your clothes......"

Shi Changsheng probably felt guilty of conscience and took the initiative to make amends, and added at the end: "I just washed one piece yesterday, and it is very clean!" ”

Xu Ran glanced at the spirit runes in the courtyard of Zhang Siyang and the Shi family, and a strange sharpness flashed in his eyes.

"Thank you then."

Shi Changsheng smiled and said, "Where is it, we admit that we are wrong...... Come in and sit! ”

Shi Changsheng invited the three of them in, but Zhang Siyang still held his head and didn't look at them squarely.

But he unintentionally caught a glimpse of Li Wuyuan bypassing the black dog blood on the ground when he walked into the courtyard gate.

Zhang Siyang was obsessed with the absurd and bizarre things of demons and monsters, and when he saw this stubble, he was even more sure that he had just judged it in an instant, and there must be something wrong with this little girl.

Shi Changsheng's so-called clean clothes are a light blue T-shirt.

Although it is conceivable that it may have been a dark blue T-shirt bought by a college student before, it is not easy to wash and fade into such a way and still maintain its basic original shape.

When Xu Ran walked out in a loose T-shirt, Li Wuyuan glanced at it and said, "Sure enough, people rely on clothes." ”

Xu Ran suddenly wanted to strangle herself who had just blocked the blood of the black dog for her.

But this was outside, and in order to take care of his image, he temporarily restrained the idea of killing the cat.

He saw Shi Cheng, who was sitting at the table eating alone, and walked over.

"Little friend," he still thought he was very handsome and sat opposite Shi Cheng, and asked with a smile with the same gentle attitude that he had when he talked to Sister-in-law Tian's son during the day:

"How are you eating alone?"

Shi Cheng looked at him while chewing the rice grains in his mouth, and there was a little bright soup stain on the side of his mouth.

Shi Changsheng on the side replied for him: "The doctor said that he should not eat some things." ”

Xu Ran nodded clearly, then raised his eyes and swept over Zhang Siyang, and said:

"Did the doctor say that you should not go out of the house, lest you attract anything bad and bad?"

Shi Changsheng was stunned.

Xu Ran continued to ask: "I would venture to ask, why did you invite Mr. Yin Yang to come to the house, and what did you precaution?" ”

Shi Changsheng was stared at by his scrutinizing gaze, and he was hesitant for a long time, unable to say a complete sentence.

Zhang Siyang was about to interject, but he remembered the scene of the "attack on the police" just now, and he was afraid that Qi Lei was still here, so he didn't plan to talk about it.

There was an eerie silence in the room for a moment.

Shi Cheng, who swallowed the rice, suddenly stared at Xu Ran and said, "Why are you wearing my father's clothes?" ”

Xu Ran was slightly stunned.

He looked at Shi Cheng's little face and smiled: "I borrowed it, I will pay it back to you next time, okay?" ”

Shi Cheng took a bite of food and nodded.

Xu Ran touched his head, and his suspicion disappeared because of the little guy's question.

He looked at Shi Changsheng standing in the room nervously, with the three big words "honest man" written between his eyebrows, and sighed silently, and said to Li Wuyuan and Qi Lei: "Let's go." ”

When passing by Zhang Siyang, he could clearly feel the disdain and coldness of the old way.

When the three of them walked out of the courtyard, it was already dark.

Qi Lei took out a flashlight, illuminated the way for the two, and asked Xu Ran: "Do you suspect that Shi Changsheng has a problem?" ”

"Just kidding." Xu Ranyun smiled lightly.

Only then did Qi Lei relax a little.

"I'm suspicious of the little one." Xu Ran said unhurriedly.

"What......"

Qi Lei almost tripped over the protruding stones on the dirt road, and hurriedly asked, "You said Shi Cheng?" ”

Xu Ran snorted.

Qi Lei stared at him, and didn't know how to refute him, Li Wuyuan on the side interjected slowly:

"Didn't his father invite Mr. Yin Yang just to protect him? You can't see such a simple truth. ”
