Twenty years ago, on the night Mu Hanzhi was killed, none of the four people in the room found the child in the corner of the closet, and this footprint finally solved all of our doubts, why the secret of twenty years ago, except for the dead Mu Hanzhi's mother and son, was known so clearly.

Revenge!

Just like the withered black mandala in the vase, the child hiding in the closet returned twenty years later with hatred and death, and it was destined that the killing would continue until Su Rui's death.

I remembered the cassette I had heard for the first time in Mu Hanzhi's bedroom, the resentful voice in it.

All to die! All to die!

The prophecy finally came true, and even if we found footprints to confirm that there was a forgotten witness, the voice in the cassette machine was a woman, and the person who bought the wedding dress was also a woman, who was this woman?

Judging from the modus operandi, the perpetrator should be a man, and he committed the murder alone, at least so far there is no sign of conspiracy, and the unjust case from 20 years ago to this day.

September 15th!

On the day of Mu Hanzhi's death, the grievances were sealed in the dust for twenty years, Mu Hanzhi's mother and son were wronged, and now the truth is finally revealed to the world, although the four of them used another way to subdue the law, but they can also be regarded as having an explanation for Mu Hanzhi's mother and son, in Han Yu's words, they can also be blinded under Jiuquan.

But the problem is that for the butcher and Yun Duruo, this case has only just begun, from the first discovery of the unknown female corpse to Su Rui's death, this series of cases has not made any progress so far.

"If it is for revenge, it is reasonable to kill Nian Weimin, Xiang Zhongyi and Su Rui, and the motive for the crime is also very clear." At the next day's meeting, the butcher removed the reading glasses from the bridge of his nose. "But apart from these three people plus Xiao Bowen, who has already died, the murderer's purpose should be very clear, but why are so many people dead?"

The butcher's doubts are also my doubts with Yun Duruo, who the nameless female corpse is still has not been figured out, as for Zhang Songlin's death can still be explained, he and Mu Hanzhi have intersections, twenty years ago he took out Mu Hanzhi and Xiao Bowen's first child, his death can also be attributed to revenge, although he committed suicide, but the situation should be similar to Su Rui's death.

I firmly believe that his mental state at that time also collapsed, and in Han Yu's words, Zhang Songlin's suicide may be the same as Su Rui's, because he was blinded by a ghost and he didn't know what he was doing.

And Zhang Songlin's appearance after his death is the appearance of a baby in the placenta, which also hints at the motive for killing Zhang Songlin, and the video found from Daoyuantang has confirmed that there is another person in the basement on the night of Zhang Songlin's death, and that person is likely to be the real murderer of this series of cases.

The next Liu Yuewu and Su Fengmei ......

And why did these two people die?

"From the recording in the cassette machine, it is not difficult to see that the murderer is passing a message." Yun Duruo thought about it and said calmly. "All those who have hurt Mu Hanzhi have to die, and the deaths of others are understandable, but Liu Yuewu and Su Fengmei are Mu Hanzhi's relatives, and the two of them have never hurt Mu Hanzhi, why were they killed?"

"All want to die, the murderer may not mean to take revenge on the person who hurt Mu Hanzhi, but anyone who is connected with Mu Hanzhi is the murderer's revenge object." Ling Guodong pondered for a while and said.

"It shouldn't be like that." I shook my head and said thoughtfully. "If as long as everyone who has contact with Mu Hanzhi is going to die, then why will the bridal shop clerk and Zhou Baiman live unharmed."

"The bridal shop clerk was the first woman to see exactly the same as Mu Hanzhi, and it was also because the clerk's description led to the case twenty years ago, as for Zhou Baiman, it can be said that Mu Hanzhi is one of the few friends." The butcher lit a cigarette and said with a frown. "The fact that these two people are alive is very important to the definition of the scope of the murderer's revenge, you must know that to a certain extent, Zhou Baiman can be regarded as having hurt Mu Hanzhi."

"Indeed, Zhou Baiman himself said that when Mu Hanzhi was pointed at, she was afraid of being implicated, instead of standing with Mu Hanzhi, she turned her back on Mu Hanzhi and drew a line with her to distance herself, compared to Liu Yuewu and Su Fengmei, Zhou Baiman is not more damned?" Yun Duruo nodded and continued the butcher's words.

"It can be seen that the murderer's motive for committing the murder is undoubtedly revenge, but the survival of the bridal shop clerk and Zhou Baiman also corroborates another thing." I said lightly after taking a sip of water. "Liu Yuewu and Su Fengmei may have other secrets hidden, and this secret murderer doesn't want others to know, it is not accurate to define Liu Yuewu and Su Fengmei's death as revenge, I think it is more of a mouthful!"

"These two people are Mu Hanzhi's closest people, why do you want to kill the two of them?" Ling Guodong asked in surprise.

"Kid!" The butcher raised his head suddenly, and said loudly with a cigarette in his hand. "It's a child, it should be a child hiding in the closet, the people who know Mu Hanzhi the most happen to be Liu Yuewu and Su Fengmei, from the Mu Hanzhi files we have, it is not difficult to find that there are very few people who come and go with Mu Hanzhi, no one has ever mentioned that Mu Hanzhi has a child by her side in addition to Mu Xiaoxuan, but the footprints that suddenly appeared in the wardrobe prove that in addition to Mu Xiaoxuan, there is another child......"

"Liu Yuewu and Su Fengmei know who this kid is!" I suddenly got up from my chair and said to Yun Duruo next to me. "Do you remember, when we went to the orphanage to investigate, the nurse said that there was a fire in the archives and all the files and photos were burned.

"At that time, I thought that someone didn't want us to see Mu Hanzhi's photo, but later after getting Mu Hanzhi's photo at Zhou Baiman's house, this assumption was overturned......" Yun Duruo also opened her mouth in surprise when she said this, she should have understood what I thought. What we want to destroy is not a photo of Mu Hanzhi, but a photo of a child, and someone doesn't want us to know about the existence of this child. ”

"For ...... Why burn the archives of the orphanage? Ling Guodong was still a little dazed.

"Mu Hanzhi is an orphan, there are very few people she knows and intersects with, the child who suddenly appears will not be from other places, Mu Hanzhi is an orphan, she often goes back to the orphanage to visit Su Fengmei, of course the child she knows is from the orphanage." The butcher took a deep breath of his cigarette and said lightly. "And that day is Mu Xiaoxuan's birthday, Mu Hanzhi should have brought another child back from the orphanage to play with Mu Xiaoxuan, and who this child she took away is Su Fengmei must know, this is why Su Fengmei was killed."

"The reason why Liu Yuewu was killed should be the same, he treats Mu Hanzhi as a relative, Mu Hanzhi must like this child very much when he takes the child home, Mu Hanzhi must have told Liu Yuewu about it." Yun Duruo continued to add on the side. "Liu Yuewu and Su Fengmei both know this unknown secret, or it is not a secret, but who would have thought that the kid would actually come back for revenge."

The butcher ended the meeting, the origin and key of everything was in the orphanage, and the focus of the investigation returned to the orphanage, and he asked Yun Duruo and me to rush to the orphanage immediately, trying to find the child who had not shown up twenty years ago.

On the way to the orphanage, Yun Duruo discussed the case with me while driving, and the tiredness on her face during this time was swept away, perhaps because of the new progress in the case, she was full of confidence, vitality and spirit.

I caught a glimpse of the wind chime bracelet on her wrist, which rang pleasantly from time to time, and I suddenly thought of the mysterious young man sitting under the willow tree in the ghost market, who had been so engrossed in the case these days, always looking for an opportunity to meet the man again.

"Let's go to the ghost market first."

"Ghost City?" Yun Duruo glanced at me in surprise. "What are you doing in the ghost market?"

I am willing to gamble and lose, I will lose after all, that person calculated the dishes of that night in one sentence, Han Yu later said to me that he was too arrogant, that person was obviously not an idle person, I actually thought about helping Yun Duruo win the bronze mirror by luck.

But if I lost the bet, I promised the man to help him find the owner of the mirror, this strange request I didn't think much about at the time, I didn't even know who the owner of the mirror was, I thought that maybe it was the man's joke, maybe it was because I was frivolous and didn't know the severity, so I proved to me in this way that he was powerful.

No jokes!

But every time I thought of these four words that came out of that man's mouth, my luck vanished, and these four words came out of his mouth with an inexplicable majesty, as if no one should be allowed to disobey or repent.

What's more, he also promised me that I would not do anything to kill people and set fires in violation of laws and disciplines, and I also added at the end that I didn't ask for money.

Since he said yes, I really can't think of anything else I can do for him, maybe out of curiosity, I really want to meet that person, and the teahouse in the ghost market, the place I have been to in my dreams, everything seems to imply that I have some kind of relationship with the ghost market, maybe the answer lies in that person. ｜.

Yun Duruo parked the car on the side of the road in the ghost market, and she and I went to the place where we last saw the person, the willow tree was still swaying in the wind, but I didn't see the person again under the tree, if it weren't for the bells tied to the willow tree, I even had a feeling of Nan Ke's dream.

Only test the destined people!

I remembered what that person said to us, and Han Yu also reminded me that that person was extraordinary, not that I could see him if I wanted to, and if I wanted to see me, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to hide.

I sighed secretly in my heart, somewhat disappointed, not that I lost the bet and couldn't honor it, but I always vaguely felt that I had seen that person somewhere, and when I saw him here that time, I had a very strange feeling, but I couldn't say anything.
