Chapter 16: The Murderer

Xu Zhen knocked on the door. Soon, a middle-aged woman with a haggard face opened the door.

"Who are you?" The woman's temples were slightly white, her cheeks were sunken, and she looked very bad.

"Hello Auntie, we are Tao Xiaoqing's colleagues. I heard that she had an accident, so I came to visit. Before coming, He Yan deliberately went to a nearby fruit store to buy a lot of condolences products.

"Oh, it's Xiaoqing's friend. Please come in ......" Tao Xiaoqing's mother rubbed her eyes. When a few people were communicating outside the door, a high school student who lived next door happened to be back from school, and when he passed by, he glanced at Xu Zhen and the others a few more times.

"Ah Hua, it's been school so early." Tao Xiaoqing's mother said hello to the boy.

"Yes, Aunt Chen." The high school student named Ah Hua nodded, took out the key and returned home.

"What time is it, is high school out so early?" Dai Shikai was a little curious, it was two o'clock in the afternoon on Friday, and from the school uniform that the other party was wearing, he recognized Ah Hua at a glance as a student of Tie Er Middle School.

"Don't even stand at the door, come in and talk." Chen Xiulian brushed her sideburns and welcomed a few people into the house.

In front of the altar in the living room is a black portrait of a young girl with clear eyebrows. Bai Qi quietly covered the lower half of the girl's face with his hand, and sure enough, it coincided with the female ghost.

"Sit down, I'll pour a cup of tea."

"It's okay Auntie, you don't have to be busy......" Xu Zhen got up to stop him.

"Soon, you sit down first. Since Xiaoqing left, except for the police, no one else has come to the door for a long time......" Chen Xiulian's face revealed indescribably haggard: "My husband went out to buy something, and he will come back immediately." ”

"Alright then, excuse me." He Yan said politely.

After Chen Xiulian walked into the kitchen, Xu Zhen and the others looked at Tao Xiaoqing in the photo and sighed together.

"I didn't expect this female ghost to be so pitiful." Bai Qi looked at the portrait, and still couldn't connect this delicate and clean little girl with the terrifying female ghost last night.

According to nearby neighbors, Tao Xiaoqing was a gentle and sensible girl before her death. Although she is beautiful, she never messes with the relationship between men and women, and she has always been single.

"If only you had pursued her sooner! With your protection, Xiaoqing won't be able to walk at night and encounter accidents......" Auntie said, her eyes red again.

Everyone sighed in their hearts, but now that they think about it, except for the fact that their behavior without saying a word looks very weird, this female ghost really doesn't show any aggression.

Bai Qi was thinking so, and the three of them suddenly found that Tao Xiaoqing, who was originally on the black and white portrait, had some changes in his face.

A line of blood and tears ran down the corners of her eyes, and then her jaw began to become a bloody blur. Seeing this situation, Dai Shikai immediately took out a prop from his arms and pointed to the portrait.

Could it be that the ghosts are going to do something to them here?

"No, the space here is too small, you need to leave quickly before the ghost appears." Dai Shikai made a decision immediately.

"Withdraw first!" Xu Zhen said, rushed to the door with an arrow step, and pushed the door open.

"Ah!!h After the door opened, before everyone had time to run, they startled the high school student named Ah Hua next door.

"Are you sick?" Qiao Zhenhua was frightened and sat on the ground, and after seeing Xu Zhen who opened the door, the expression on his face turned from horror to anger in an instant: "I was shocked, I scared Lao Tzu to death!" Aren't you ......?"

"What's wrong?" Chen Xiulian wore an apron and ran out of the kitchen.

"Look, the ghost doesn't seem to be there." He Yan glanced behind him, Tao Xiaoqing's photo had been restored to its original state, and it seemed that the scene that happened just now was just their hallucination.

"It's okay, a misunderstanding ......" Xu Zhen rolled his eyes and immediately made a decision not to leave first.

Qiao Zhenhua got up from the ground, and his previous arrogance was extinguished all of a sudden after seeing Chen Xiulian. He patted the dirt on his body, picked up the lighter that had just been hit and dropped on the ground, and quickly stuffed it back into his pocket. Then, he quickened his pace and left through the door.

"At a young age, he swears and smokes. This kid is really not doing his job! Bai Qi habitually complained twice.

"Hey, this kid used to be fine, but in the past two years, his parents have neglected to discipline, so he has met some little hooligans in society, and he has learned badly." Chen Xiulian sighed.

Back in the house, everyone drank tea, and their eyes glanced at the photo from time to time, in case the ghost would reappear. It's just that this time it was very safe, and he stayed at Tao Xiaoqing's house until he left, and there was no supernatural phenomenon.

Everyone sat down and greeted each other until five o'clock in the evening. During this period, Tao Xiaoqing's father also returned, although the husband and wife repeatedly retained, everyone still refused the invitation to dinner and insisted on leaving. Before leaving, Xu Zhen quietly stuffed all the money on his body under the sofa, which was the only good deed he could do.

"Tao Xiaoqing's parents didn't have any valuable clues, but there is one person who deserves our attention......"

Dai Shikai's words resonated with everyone: "That bear child named Qiao Zhenhua should have a lot of clues. ”

……

"Sister Xiaoqing, I burned a lot of paper for you...... Your death has nothing to do with me, don't look for me......" In Tiesan Hutong, a boy was half-squatting, and after burning the yellow paper in his hand, he put a small bouquet of white flowers on the ground.

Taking advantage of this point in time, there was no one in the alley, Qiao Zhenhua skipped class in advance and sneaked back, took a lighter from home, bought some yellow paper, and came to the scene of the crime alone to worship secretly.

After doing this, Qiao Zhenhua breathed a sigh of relief. He rubbed his squatting numb leg and stood up from the ground. However, as soon as he turned around, he found that there were four men standing behind him.

These people are no strangers to him, and this afternoon, he also met them at the door of Tao Xiaoqing's house.

"You ......" Qiao Zhenhua's face turned pale, and after taking a few steps back, looking at the faces of Xu Zhen and the others, he seemed to understand something, and suddenly ran away.

"Sure enough, I guessed correctly, Tao Xiaoqing's death was done by this kid!" Everyone's eyes lit up, and they immediately accelerated to catch up.

With the need to escape from the ghosts to enter the field, it is easy for the dreambreakers to catch a child with him. Before Qiao Zhenhua could run far, he was pressed to the ground by Bai Qi and Dai Shikai, one left and one right.

"What are you going to do? Kidnapping?! Qiao Zhenhua pulled his throat, just about to call for help, and the next second, after hearing Xu Zhen's words, he closed his mouth suddenly.

"It's best to call the police. You murderer! ”
