Chapter 47: The Mystery of the Dry Bones

On the first floor of the three-story western-style building of Qiu Yanzi's house, in the center of the very spacious and modern living room, a group of people sit on the ground, gathered together, and in the middle are some fruit plates and snacks.

In this very casual environment, everyone's faces were more or less shocked, and Chen Yingjie was even more scared and trembling.

"Hinata, what happened then?"

Luo Nan, who spoke, was not afraid at all, but felt a little surprised by this matter.

"Guess what?"

Qiu Yanzi pretended to be mysterious, naturally glanced at Mo Ming, and smiled slightly.

"Is it really murder and hiding corpses?"

Jiang Wentai thought about it carefully, could it be that there was a murder incident of a bad nature in Qingchuan County? It's hard to imagine, and I'm afraid it will cause a commotion. No, if this had happened, the siren would have sounded a long time ago.

Qiu Yanzi shook his head, and in retrospect, he laughed a little embarrassedly and scratched the back of his head.

"At that time, I was scared, did I encounter the kind of incident on the TV news? His mind was blank, but Mo Ming was very calm, and after careful study, he found that it was not a human bone."

"Not human?"

After Chen Yingjie heard this, she was relieved, wiped the cold sweat on her face, and exhaled.

Then Senior Sister Yang Huhu blew into Chen Yingjie's ear with bad intentions, and muttered softly.

"It's a youkai......

The whole body was excited, the tears in the corners of his eyes were scared out, and he hugged Qiu Yanzi, trembling even more.

Yang Huhu instantly became proud, Mo Ming was really familiar with this scene, he had scared the senior sister with them.

"Yingjie, don't be afraid, she should be a good monster."

Qiu Yanzi suddenly squinted and stared at Chen Yingjie, this time she was not lightly frightened, she retreated directly, lay on the ground, buried her head in the big pillow, and trembled.

Yan Wu and Luo Nan looked at each other for a while, and they all smiled in agreement, these people are very interesting.

"What the hell is that?"

Jiang Wentai was still thinking seriously, white bones appeared at dusk, what are they if they are not human bones?

Mo Ming coughed, everyone's attention was focused on him, and Chen Yingjie also got up, very afraid and curious to wait for an answer.

"The skeleton was large, like a fat adult, but it wasn't, and I then used the light of the minister's phone to look at the other parts and found a small head that didn't fit the huge skeleton, the head was small, but it was a row of dense teeth, and I thought back then that it was supposed to be the skeleton of a wild boar."

"Boar?"

Everyone spoke in unison, but relaxed.

Why are there wild boars in this place? The answer is that not far from the village of Izumi in Harukawa Town, that is, around the ancestral hall, there are dense forests and long slopes of dirt, and other than that, there are plains, so some wild animals live in this area.

"I saw later that the tributes on the table had been knocked over, and there was a large steamed bun that was only half left, extremely stiff, and the wild boar was very well preserved. There seems to be an obvious foreign body in the throat, so ...... What do you think?"

Mo Ming has a good grasp of the rhythm of guessing riddles, and the story is only interesting if it is interactive.

Everyone was lost in thought, but Jiang Wentai was obviously thinking faster.

"Is it? Choked and suffocated?"

"That's right, the wild boar broke in and stole the tribute, but it bit a steamed bun like a brick, stuck directly in the throat, couldn't move, and suffocated to death, so the corpse was not missing a trace."

After Mo Ming finished speaking, everyone came to their senses, some nodded, some thought, and some sympathized with the wild boar's plight, of course, this person was Qiu Yanzi. She had never seen a wild boar, not even a living pig, but she didn't expect Qingchuan Town to have such a primitive environment.

"Is it possible that he was poisoned?"

Jiang Wentai felt that Mo Ming's statement was a little not rigorous enough, and he was actually supported to death alive, which was incredible.

"Probably not, we each got home yesterday evening......

Mo Ming paused here when he said this, can they go home? Because Qiu Yanzi was very scared, Mo Ming sent him home first before going back himself. But how can you say such a thing as sending a girl home?

Mo Ming's eyes wandered slightly, and his gaze converged with Qiu Yanzi on the side, and then they all avoided it with some embarrassment.

Yan Wu looked at the reaction of the two of them a little strangely, but he didn't plan to ask.

"After we each went home, the minister called me and asked me to meet her at the ancestral hall this morning to take another look at the bones."

"Huh? And this kind of thing, huh? So you've already gone out before we meet here?"

Chen Yingjie asked the two curiously.

Qiu Hinako smiled a little embarrassedly.

"Yes, I want to see what that white bone is. After I went, I confirmed that it was the skeleton of a wild boar, but it was also confirmed by Mo Ming, and I don't know much about this."

"Is there anything unusual about the skeleton? More hideous than the face?"

Jiang Wentai grabbed his neck funny, making that kind of suffocating appearance, his face was a little painful, and it looked funny, which made Chen Yingjie laugh.

"Haha, you really look like a wild boar."

"Uh...... I'm learning from you, Xiaoying."

"Hit you!"

"Don't ...... As for the joke, let's say the wild boar first."

Jiang Wentai naturally enlivened the atmosphere, and this way of playing treasure made everyone very relaxed.

"I know what Wentai means, if you are poisoned, there will be signs of blackening on the skeleton of the wild boar, or in more precise places, such as the Adam's apple, but the skeleton we saw this morning is the kind that is very healthy."

"That's it, that's ......."

Jiang Wentai nodded, feeling that he still had a little doubt about this matter, and after thinking for a while, he suddenly thought of it and knocked his forehead with his fist.

"Well, how did the boar get in?"

"Huh? How do I get in?"

This sudden question made Mo Ming wonder why there was such a question, Jiang Wentai also felt that he had not explained it clearly, so he began to add explanations.

"Didn't the minister say that when Xiao Ming entered the ancestral hall, it took a lot of effort to open the door? Does that mean that after the wild boar entered the ancestral hall, he politely closed the door? This is a bit unlikely, right? No one else can travel far to close the door, right? It could only be that the door closed by the person in charge of cleaning the old ancestral hall on a regular basis, so you should see the pig carcass, right? Why don't you sweep it?"

Jiang Wentai couldn't hold it once he opened the chatterbox, but this was indeed an interesting question, and everyone began to think about the possibilities, only two people didn't, one was Mo Ming, who looked embarrassed, and the other was Qiu Yanzi, who couldn't help but "poof".

"Hinata, what's wrong?"

Chen Yingjie looked at Qiu Yanzi in confusion.

Qiu Yanzi hurriedly waved his hand to explain.

"That, I'm sorry, I'm not laughing at Jiang Wentai's question, but I just think it's funny, and I think it's very careful when you think of it."

This story was told to them by Qiu Yanzi, and in the part where the door was opened, Qiu Yanzi deliberately described the details, but his purpose was only to set off the terrifying atmosphere, but Jiang Wentai paid attention to it.

"Did anything happen here?"

Jiang Wentai was very puzzled, and after Qiu Yanzi calmed down, he glanced at Mo Ming, who was very ashamed.

"That, when Mo Ming opened the door, he pushed it in once, and then didn't push the door open, I thought he was struggling so he wanted to help him, but he quickly shook his head and refused, I was a little puzzled at first, but then I realized that this door was pulled outward, so I said......

"So, it's Xiao Ming who closed the door for the wild boar?"

Jiang Wentai teased Mo Ming in a mocking tone, making Mo Ming, who was originally extremely embarrassed, even more embarrassed.

"It's been a long time...... Some have forgotten, and then ...... It's not funny, is it?"

Mo Ming resisted weakly.

"Brother, cute ......"

After some ridicule, it came back to this incident.

"Minister, what happened after that?"

Yan Wu asked curiously about the follow-up of the story.

"Well, nothing happened, we contacted the person in charge of the old ancestral hall by phone, and now we should have gone to clean it."

Luo Nan listened to it for a long time, from the two sneaking up on the ancestral hall after school until the end of the story. It can be described as ups and downs, and the ending is reasonable, but unexpected.

"It turns out that this kind of thing happened, and sure enough, the kind of thing in the news won't happen in Qingchuan Town."

Her exclamation resonated with many people, the town of Qingchuan in the memory of this group of people has always been peaceful and serene, but peace means repeated boredom, there is nothing thrilling or world-watching, and some are just small puzzles that can be explained little by little.

"I thought you'd be disappointed, this end."

Mo Ming didn't expect everyone to be so easily satisfied.

"How could I be disappointed, I don't want this kind of corpse-hiding murderer in the town."

Chen Yingjie put her hands on her shoulders, and she trembled when she said the word "murderer", she didn't like this kind of thing.

Everyone agrees with Chen Yingjie's point of view, although the plots in the TV series and movies are thrilling, if it really happens around you, I'm afraid there will only be panic.

After telling this story, Qiu Yanzi smiled slightly and clapped her hands.

"This little story serves as a foreshadowing, and now everyone starts talking about their own movie plans."

Of course, the original purpose of this gathering was to discuss the film, and the small talk was just to set the mood.

"The ......"

Yang Huhu suddenly raised his hand weakly, and everyone began to look at her.

"It's not too early...... I'm a little hungry......

It was almost noon, and everyone was basically hungry, and after the senior sister brought it up, this feeling of hunger became even more obvious.

Today, Yaka's parents are not at home, which is a gathering of a group of young people.

Jiang Wentai suddenly got up, excited, and raised Mo Ming's hand with a blank face.

"The first school magazine Club Kitchen God Contest Cup officially began, with Mo Ming and I as judges, and all the girls were contestants."

Everyone looked demented, and Jiang Wentai became even more excited, comparing scissor hands.

"The judges' principles are, first, never take things personally! Second, never miss a single bad thing! Thirdly, the impartiality of the absolute referee is beautiful!"
