Chapter 58: Secrets of the Manor (2)
The ground was black, and the snow-white carpet was crowded with small black creatures. Fortunately, Xiu Yuan didn't have a phobia of intensity, otherwise he would definitely faint on the spot.
Although Xiuyuan wanted to reduce the sense of presence as much as possible, the bright light of the mobile phone had already exposed everything.
If Xiuyuan was not mistaken, they were heading in other directions.
But because of the sudden appearance of such a "big light bulb" as Xiuyuan, these little creatures changed their direction. They turned to Xiuyuan, step by step, in unison.
The sound of "rustling" is what they make when they walk. Xiu Yuan felt that this was more like a sound of urgency.
He felt a remote control under the pillow, and in his panic, he could only press a button at random, "pop", and the room suddenly became as bright as day.
This group of black-pressed little creatures may have been dazzled by the light and temporarily stopped moving forward. It turned out that the "cuties" who traveled to Xiuyuan were all ants.
The ants are as big as four or five centimeters, and their long antennae can even be seen with the naked eye, and their bodies are black and shiny.
They were lined up in a neat column, as if they were an organized and disciplined army.
It's a real thing.
Wait, become a jing?
Xiuyuan suddenly remembered a dream he had in the afternoon: a boy's ghost communicating with an ant that was only a little smaller than them.
Xiuyuan's hairs stand on end, isn't it a dream in the afternoon?! What is an ant that can come into contact with ghosts if it is not a spirit?!
Xiu Yuan pinched it hard, and he grinned in pain. My heart sank: It's over, it's true, it's cool now.
Xiu Yuan was helpless, and the fear in his heart eroded him. He hated himself for not asking Xu Yuzhi to learn a trick and a half, even if they asked for a talisman.
It's just that it's too late to say anything.
That's when ......
"Big brother." The children's voice sounded, but Xiuyuan couldn't see the shadow.
"Big brother, can you turn off the lights? I promise, they won't hurt you! â
I don't know why, Xiuyuan has an inexplicable sense of trust in this voice.
"Death is death." Xiuyuan broke the jar and pressed the button to turn off the lights on the remote control. In an instant, the room was plunged into darkness.
It's just that what surprised Xiu Yuan was that at the moment when the light went out, he seemed to see a young face, it was Chu Chu.
"Chu Chu! Plainly! â
Xiu Yuan shouted and sat up, it was already dawn outside, Xiu Yuan took out his mobile phone and took a look, it was almost noon.
Xiuyuan began to doubt himself, could it be that he was dreaming again?!
"Chu Chu, which girl is it?" The sudden sound startled Xiuyuan.
A beautiful face that made people jealous appeared in front of him, no, it was floating in front of his eyes.
Xiuyuan "snapped" and put it on that face, and it took a while to react.
"I'll go, Brother Han. You're sick, aren't you?! "It's scary in broad daylight.
"You beat me and said I was sick." Ren Han burst into tears.
Xiu Yuan turned his head, and Qingyue was actually there. Xiuyuan wrapped the quilt shyly: "You guys, how did you get in." â
"Boss, we were invited by you. I didn't answer my phone calls, and I didn't wake up when I kicked the door, so I took some special measures. â
Ren Han and Qingyue first set their respective rooms and prepared to find Xiuyuan together, but Xiuyuan just didn't come to open the door, so Ren Han recovered the state of his soul body, went inside, and opened the door.
"No, there's surveillance outside, big brother."
"Surveillance is bad." Qingyue waved her hand helplessly, "We originally wanted to quietly break the surveillance, but later found out that it was broken before we came." â
Xiu Yuan looked at Ren Han, who was still aggrieved on the side, and scratched his hair with a headache, just like that, how could he chase the sister paper of the queen of the inner sister of Lori, who looks like Qingyue.
"Brother Han, you change your body."
"Oh."
Fortunately, the slap was only on the soul and would not affect Ren Han's face after the human form.
"Boss." Qingyue admired her newly made manicure, and the shiny nails shook Xiuyuan's eyes, "Actually, it's not just as simple as playing at public expense. â
ââĶâĶâ
"Don't deny it, you were in a hurry yesterday, and I knew something must have happened. Today, when I arrived, I confirmed this idea even more. Here, there are quirks. â
"You feel it?!" Xiuyuan was a little surprised, it seems that this matter can be solved by Qingyue.
It's just that Ren Han was unhappy when he heard it. He came with Qingyue when he wanted to come, thinking that Qingyue would go there if he wanted to, it didn't matter where he was on vacation, as long as the two of them could be together, it would be the same.
"I didn't expect you to ask us to help!" Ren Han complained.
"These days, not only public expense, but also three times the salary."
"Nope."
"Five!"
"Deal."
Xiuyuan was overjoyed. Money is not everything, but it is useful.
Xiuyuan told Qingyue and Ren Han about the two dreams he had on this day, let's just call them dreams.
"Your conjecture is likely to be correct, the combination of ghosts and demons really can't be underestimated." Katsuki's gearing posture showed that she had a great interest in the matter.
"Have they ever harmed anyone?"
"No, at least not yet."
"Then ......" Before the word "good" could be uttered, Qingyue was interrupted by a shout.
"Ah!! Dead man!! â
The piercing screams were a little uncomfortable, but after hearing the content clearly, Xiuyuan's face was shocked.
"You go back to your room first, avoid all the cameras, and remember that you're a newcomer and have just checked in."
"You have to say, that's how we came here. What about you, though. â
"Listen to the voice, it's my classmate, I have to go and see."
Fortunately, not long after Ren Han and Qingyue arrived in their room, someone knocked on the door.
It's someone from the town's police station.
After a brief inquiry, and a certificate from the front desk to give them check-in.
The forensic doctor at the police station has given first-hand information that the time of death of the deceased was in the early hours of the morning.
Ren Han and Qingyue naturally ruled out suspicion. You can move around the manor freely, but you can't go out yet.
In this regard, Qingyue and the others cooperated.
Xiuyuan packed up and went out to the scene of the crime. I saw that Su Xinyue was actually doing a preliminary autopsy on the corpse.
"Who?" A policeman stopped him.
"I heard the screaming." Xiuyuan explained.
Su Xinyue turned around and saw Xiu Yuan hurriedly trotting over: "Let me introduce you." â
Su Xinyue pointed at Xiuyuan and said to the policeman who stopped him: "Officer Bai, this is the criminal investigation consultant of the Fengcheng General Bureau, Xiuyuan." â
Su Xinyue looked at Xiuyuan again: "This is the head of the police station in the town, Baishi." â
Xiu Yuan shook hands with Bai Shi, and Bai Shi's tense expression relaxed a little: "Consultant Xiu, I'm really embarrassed." â
"Don't call me an advisor, my identity is confidential. It was supposed to be a class reunion, who would have thought that such a thing would happen. Xiuyuan sighed.
Bai Shi nodded, and Xiu Yuan followed Su Xinyue to the corpse.
"It's ......"
"Feng Xiaoya."
Su Xinyue's face was expressionless when she spoke, but Xiuyuan knew that she was a forensic doctor, and she had to restrain her emotions, whether it was sadness or anger.
"Deceased: Feng Xiaoya; Age: 21 years old. Time of death: between two and three a.m. â
When Xiuyuan heard that he was 21 years old, he suddenly felt very uncomfortable: "The cause of death is ......"
"Do you know that there was a kind of criminal law in ancient times, called 'Ling Chi'?"
"I know, it's the so-called 'a thousand cuts.'"
A terrible thought suddenly popped into Xiuyuan's mind: "She ......"
"She wasn't slashed with a thousand cuts."
When Xiuyuan heard this, he just wanted to breathe a sigh of relief.
Su Xinyue's voice remembered again: "It's not much different from a thousand cuts." â
"What do you mean?!"
"Look at the flesh on her body......" Su Xinyue lifted the white cloth covering the corpse.
An idiom appeared in Xiuyuan's mind: a thousand holes.
"Cause of death: Death from blood loss due to being bitten by an unknown species. As for how many times they were bitten, the conditions are limited now, and it is not possible to make statistics. â
Xiu Yuan held back the churning of his stomach: "Are there any other clues?" â
Su Xinyue shook her head: "No." â
"Let's let the police dispose of the body first."
"Okay."
Su Xinyue found Baishi and asked him to transport the body back to the town for safekeeping.
There is no progress in the case, and the people here can be said to be suspicious, especially this group of classmates. The whole manor was in a state of panic.
Due to the convenience of his identity as a consultant, Xiuyuan contacted Ren Han and Qingyue and told the two of them the general situation of the case.
"I didn't see Feng Xiaoya's soul body, I felt a little weird. So, now it may be up to you. But be careful. â
"We'll take notice. However, this case is indeed quite strange. â
âĶâĶ
Although Xiuyuan told Baishi that he would keep his identity secret, no one was a fool. Everyone else has a dedicated person to look after them.
Su Xinyue, everyone knows that the forensic doctor must help solve the case.
But Xiuyuan turned out to be free, and he was also busy with the progress of the case, and everyone vaguely understood that Xiuyuan was by no means as simple as a small supervisor of a courier company.
Among them, the most depressed was Chu Xia, watching Xiu Yuan and Su Xinyue go in and out together, angry but helpless.
A day passed without the slightest progress in the case.
Whether it was Xiuyuan, Qingyue, or Ren Han, they all had a strong sense of frustration, after all, they used non-human power, but there were no clues.
Is the enemy too strong, or are they too wasteful?!
But it's strange to say, since Qingyue and they came, Xiuyuan has slept peacefully, and he won't have messy dreams anymore.
The day after the incident, early in the morning, Su Xinyue took the initiative to find Xiuyuan.
"There's not so good news for you."
"You say."
"They called up the surveillance and found that there were only two places where the surveillance was bad."
"One should be mine here, and one should be Feng Xiaoya's."
Su Xinyue looked at him with questions on her face.
"I'll introduce you to two friends first." Xiuyuan pointed to the ground with his finger, and Su Xinyue understood in seconds.
"Transform."
Su Xinyue looked at her face and spoke into the air. She followed Xiuyuan and looked over.
Suddenly, the two appeared in front of them out of thin air.
Rao is Su Xinyue was prepared, but she was still scared.
