Chapter 6 Disappearing Essentials

Huaxia, 11:00, the scene of the crime on Nanhai Street.

"Ouyang Xiu, Zheng Hanfei, you are here." Looking at the two people who were running, Ling Hua's face suddenly showed a hint of relief, and he hurriedly ordered the other police officers to let them in.

Without the police's obstruction, Zheng Hanfei and Ouyang Xiu walked into the scene of the crime with expressionless faces, ignoring Ling Hua, their eyes suddenly swept around, and found that this place was a dark dead end, usually a place where nearby residents put garbage, fortunately, there was no garbage at the scene of the crime, which was a blessing in misfortune, and then the two of them set their eyes on the magic array.

"Officer Linghua, how is the body, have you found out the identity of the deceased? Did the deceased commit suicide or homicide? I don't know how long it took before the two of them took their eyes off the magic array and asked Ling Hua a few questions in unison, "And the forbidden magic book at the scene of the crime, is it the book that Ouyang Xiu described to you." ”

"Ahh Officer Ling Hua took out his notebook and said, "Not only is it the same as what Ouyang Xiu described, but also the fingerprints of you, Qu Menghan, Nan Ruoxun and others were found on that book, I believe this book is the forbidden magic book you lost." As for the body, it will have to wait for further examination, the body was burned beyond recognition, let alone his identity, and it is not even certain whether he committed suicide or murder. ”

There's very little valuable news. Zheng Hanfei and Ouyang Xiu glanced at each other, this kind of sudden murder is the most difficult for both detectives and policemen, not to mention that the crime scene has no valuable clues at all except for a big magic array and a large pile of metal, all of this is like being arranged, it seems to be suicide, and murder cannot be denied.

"Leave it to me here, you can go back first." Ouyang Xiu suddenly popped out a sentence, which made Zheng Hanfei slightly stunned, and Ouyang Xiu thought that Zheng Hanfei didn't understand, frowned, and said impatiently: "Don't you understand what I said?" Menghan still needs to be taken care of there, and it is definitely not safe to leave Nan Ruoxun there alone, so you can go back and stay with them, so as to save you from worry. ”

"I should have said that, right? Don't worry, I've already asked Xiaojie to take care of them, let's concentrate on solving the case. Zheng Hanfei said playfully, it can be seen from Ouyang Xiu's attitude that he is very irritable, needless to say, he must be worried about Qu Menghan, as for Zheng Hanfei, he has seen it, anyway, this case is inseparable from the forbidden magic book, I believe that as long as this case is cracked and the murderer is caught, Qu Menghan's eyes can naturally be cured, in addition, he also cares about the murder case on Dahua's side, although he doesn't believe that there is a forbidden magic book in the world, but ...... That kind of ancient cover can't be made with modern technology, and according to Mengwu's report, the book he found on his side was exactly the same as the book on his side, which made him a little suspicious, and a trace of unease began to well-up in his heart.

"How do you feel about this magic array?" Since Ouyang Xiu didn't listen to persuasion, Zheng Hanfei didn't have anything to do, shrugged his shoulders slightly at Ouyang Xiu, walked to one of the corners of the crime scene, took out the communicator from his pocket, and asked slowly.

"It's a good drawing." Meng Wu, who was squatting in front of the magic array, said to the communicator, "It can be said that it is very exquisite, not like it is drawn according to the gourd painting scoop, I believe that it takes a long time to paint this kind of thing, besides, don't you think this is like a ritual?" It's like a ritual that often comes out in novels and anime, and the first thing I feel about it is this. ”

"It's not a good ceremony, is it?" Zheng Hanfei said with a smile, and then asked, "By the way, did you find anything wrong from that magic array?" Like what's missing or what's more? ”

"Not really." Meng Wu replied, "There are outer array diagrams, magic inductions, potentials, prayers, foreign magic rings, foreign magic circles, foreign magic arrays, and even auxiliary magic arrays, so it can be said that this is a perfect magic array. ”

"Oh? Do you know how much? Zheng Hanfei was slightly surprised, he didn't expect Meng Wu to know the structure of the magic array so well, and even he checked it on Baidu to understand some fur.

"I've read too many novels and comics, and I can't understand them." Meng Wu said as a matter of course, "By the way, there is one thing that I really care about, I have two pieces of gold, one amber, one crystal and half a piece of silver on this magic array, I don't know what it means, you look at the metal on your magic array, is it the same amount as mine." ”

Leaving a sentence you wait, Zheng Hanfei put the communicator back in his pocket, returned to the scene of the crime, glanced at Ouyang Xiu, and found that his eyes were wide, his eyes were bloodshot, and at a glance he knew that this was a manifestation that he had been immersed in his own world of reasoning but could not solve the hidden secrets at all, maybe from the moment he left, Ouyang Xiu's mind was almost occupied by the cremation case, and I am afraid that he didn't care about the things around him at all.

Ignoring Ouyang Xiu, who was immersed in his own world, Zheng Hanfei said to Ling Hua, then picked up the metal placed on the magic array and took a look, and found that there were two pieces of gold on the magic array, an amber, a crystal and a piece of silver, which were a little different from Mengwu's side, and after a little thought, Zheng Hanfei took out the communicator on the spot, didn't care about the surprised eyes of others, and began to discuss with Mengwu.

"The silver in the magic represents the metal of the goddess of the 'moon', which is the essence of the moonlight, and the attributes of other metals are completely different, combined with the fact that this is a cremation case, the magic array must be related to fire, and the extra half of the silver, it should be what the meaning is, or rather, this proves that the murderers of the two cremation cases are not the same person." Meng Wu thought for a while and spoke his thoughts.

"Aren't you talking nonsense?" Zheng Hanfei raised his eyebrows, "How can someone cross the distance of space and commit crimes in two different places at the same time, this is the real world, there is no such thing as a non-scientific thing." ”

"But this premise can only be true if the prisoners are not the same person." Speaking of this, a trace of solemnity appeared on Mengwu's face, "If the criminals are the same person, then we will have to solve an unprecedented problem, spanning two countries separated by thousands of miles, and committing crimes at the same time. ”

"Fortunately, this is not true, otherwise it would be really a bit difficult to do, so if there is any other news, I will inform you as soon as possible." After speaking, Zheng Hanfei turned off the communicator, walked up to Ling Hua, and asked to see the corpse and the objects that the corpse was carrying, after all, the clues at the scene of the crime had almost been excavated, and he could only start from other aspects.

In this regard, Ling Hua did not refuse, and led Zheng Hanfei to the place where the corpse was placed, while Ouyang Xiu subconsciously followed, judging from the fact that his eyes did not pay attention to the road, he did not withdraw from his own world at all, fortunately, Zheng Hanfei found and led him in time, otherwise Zheng Hanfei really didn't dare to imagine how many times Ouyang Xiu would fall or hit the wall along the way.

When he came to the place where the corpse was placed, Zheng Hanfei did not inspect the corpse, but walked around the corpse to the unburned things found from the corpse, patted his gloved hands, his eyes gradually narrowed, and began to carefully examine them one by one.

The dead man was a magician. After checking everything, Zheng Hanfei couldn't help but smack his lips, what he found, a small alchemy furnace ornament made of alloy, two small crystal ball earrings, and even found a stick that was burned black, if Zheng Hanfei guessed correctly, it should be a magic wand used by magicians.

Coupled with the pieces of cloth on the deceased's body that were not burned to ashes, all the props that a magician should have ...... Kindness? At this time, Zheng Hanfei sensed that something was wrong, but he just couldn't say it, so he rechecked the items, and combined with the information he had just seen in his mind, there seemed to be nothing wrong, but his intuition told him that there was indeed something missing from this deceased, an indispensable thing for a magician.

What could it be? Zheng Hanfei couldn't see it for a while, there was no way, Zheng Hanfei had to not dwell on this issue for the time being, walked slowly in front of Ling Hua, and after thinking about it, Zheng Hanfei asked, "Officer Ling Hua, are these the only items on the deceased?" Didn't find anything else? Even suspicious dust is fine. ”

"Nope." Ling Hua shook his head, suddenly, he remembered something, although it had nothing to do with the case, but he didn't want Zheng Hanfei to be disappointed, so he said, "Speaking of suspicion, I remember that when I rushed to the scene of the crime again, the deceased was lying on the magic array, and he was still holding a piece of silver in his hand, which was the piece of silver placed on the magic array, we didn't care about it at the time, but now that I think about it, this situation is really weird." ”

Half a ...... A...... Hold ...... The high temperature, so, no wonder something is wrong, it turns out that this thing has disappeared! In that case, that can be explained! Connecting these clues, Zheng Hanfei's face had a confident smile in many places, and a puzzle had been solved!
