Chapter 12: The Game Begins
"The enthusiastic couple knew that the girl in the yard was fake, they drove away the girl pretending to be a mermaid, and told Xiao Ai the truth, after hearing the truth, Xiao Ai didn't believe what the couple said, he ......" Teacher Jin hesitated. He killed the couple. ”
"That's it?" Xu Tian asked.
Of course it's not that simple, as for the whole process of Xiao Ai killing the couple, it is the essence of this dark fairy tale, but I didn't dare to write that bloody plot for the second time, readers should forgive him! You just need to make up for it yourself. Teacher Jin said.
"But that's not how it develops in reality, right? At least Yingfeng is still alive. Xu Tian said.
"We didn't see the mermaid you mentioned, but we didn't even see Xiao Ai." Ying Feng said.
"What kind of story did it turn into?" Xu Tian asked.
"Xiao Ai seems to have evaporated from the world, I have also been to Haiyu Village to find Xiao Ai, but the villagers don't know where Xiao Ai has gone." Ying Feng said.
"What about the woman who pretended to be a girl?" Xu Tian asked.
"It's still in the village, but the fact that she pretended to be a girl has been exposed, and since then she hasn't been able to raise her head in the village, and we have also wondered if Xiao Ai's disappearance has anything to do with that woman, but not long after, the woman hanged herself, and the villagers guessed that the reason was that the woman's reputation in the village was stinky, so she didn't want to live." Ying Feng said.
"Then didn't you and Chen Fan report to look for Xiao Ai?" Xu Tian asked.
"Of course, the case has been reported, and the police have filed a case, but you should also understand how many missing cases in this world have not been solved." Ying Feng said.
"But the story that happened between you and Chen Fan and Xiao Ai before is almost exactly the same as the story told by Teacher Jin, there won't be any other story in this, right?" Xu Tian said suspiciously.
"Okay, it's not too early, we should also ask Lao Lai, about whether there was any noise in the ancestral hall at night in the days when the crime occurred, we have to ask Lao Lai." Teacher Jin said.
Xu Tian heard that Teacher Jin had something to say, it seemed that Teacher Jin wanted to leave here quickly, Xu Tian had no choice but to follow Teacher Jin's wishes, and the two soon left Yingfeng's house under the leadership of Lao Gao.
"Teacher Jin, there is a problem with this Yingfeng, and the story she told should be inconsistent with your call." Xu Tian said.
"Isn't that nonsense! I told a story that I made up all of my mind, and I wanted to see if she would tell us the truth. Teacher Jin said.
"But the result is that Yingfeng is unanimously following your words, and she has always agreed that the story of her and Chen Fan is the same as the fairy tale you told." Xu Tian said.
"Yingfeng is lying, she must have something to do with the murder in the village, but Yingfeng can't be locked as a criminal, there should be a lot of articles here." Teacher Jin said.
"This case is not only the murder in the village, but also the traces of Zhinian Taisui, Caogang Village and Zhinian Tai Sui are absolutely inseparable, and Lijia Village is the same, and I saw Dr. Lin after I climbed out of the coffin today, which shows that the village we are in now must also be inseparable from Zhinian Tai Sui." Xu Tian said.
"Everyone is a crucial character, do you remember the detective game that Dr. Lin said?" Teacher Jin said.
"Of course I remember, if nothing else, this event might have been a part of the game, and I always felt as if I had been forgetting what had happened before, did you feel like that?" Xu Tian asked.
"You're overthinking, aren't you? But now the direction of the investigation should be changed, and I will just look at it. Teacher Jin said.
"I think so too, there are still two crucial characters now, Mr. Xu and his wife, we have to find out the origin of these two people first." Xu Tian said.
"Let's go, go back." Teacher Jin said.
Seeing that Xu Tian and Teacher Jin were about to go to Mr. Xu's house, Lao Gao hurriedly stopped them.
"You can't go! Mr. Xu has entrusted you to help us investigate the case, and now there is no eyebrows, and you can't pay the difference when you go back! Lao Gao said.
"I'm sorry, we have to go back and ask Mr. Xu something, you can get busy first! We'll look for you at the ancestral hall later. Teacher Jin said.
"But ......"
Before Lao Gao could respond, Xu Tian and Teacher Jin had already strode towards Mr. Xu's house.
"Don't you want to pierce the window paper yet? Just now, you can say to Lao Gao that we are not Mr. Xu's people. Xu Tian said.
"You don't want to, do you? Otherwise, you wouldn't have connived with me doing such a thing. Teacher Jin said.
"Humph! At this time, in addition to continuing to investigate the case, we also have to be a confused person, and it is also a good strategy to wait and see what happens. Xu Tian said.
"What if things don't turn out optimistically? What will happen to you? Teacher Jin asked.
"I can already conclude that this time will be a battle that will determine our fate, whether we can get close to the ruling Tai Sui depends on whether this case can be solved quickly." Xu Tian said.
In front of him was Mr. Xu's house, and the two of them, who were striding fast, suddenly saw an old woman walking over from the intersection, and this old woman was the old man sitting in the backyard of the ancestral hall watching the play.
The old woman's face did look a little demented, but the ninety-two-year-old old woman walked without using crutches, which made Xu Tian and Teacher Jin feel very compatible.
"This old man is likely to be a witness to the murder, at least she must have been watching Xiao Wu's body from the audience every day in the days after Xiao Wu's death." Xu Tian said.
"No way, in such a situation, we can't ask an old man with dementia." Teacher Jin said.
"I don't know to what extent she is demented, and there is a troupe in the ancestral hall before, and it should be lively this time." Xu Tian said.
"Don't mess with the analysis first, it's best not to have anything happen, I hope Mr. Xu can give us a satisfactory answer." Teacher Jin said.
According to the neighbor, Mr. Xu was pushed by his wife in a wheelchair to the ancestral hall, so Xu Tian and Mr. Jin returned to the ancestral hall.
At this time, it was already after lunch, and there was only a villager standing guard in the guard room in the ancestral hall, because Xu Tian and Teacher Jin had been brought into the ancestral hall by Lao Gao before, so the person standing guard did not embarrass Xu Tian and Teacher Jin, and the two successfully entered the backyard of the ancestral hall.
The two large boxes carried by the troupe were still in the backyard of the ancestral hall, and Xu Tian and Teacher Jin saw at a glance that one of the big boxes had four words written on it: "The game begins." ”
When they saw these words, the two of them suddenly had a bad premonition, and at this time, Xu Tian suddenly looked at the altar and found that there was a person lying under the table above the altar.
