On the eighteenth floor of the fourth building in Jiangnan Water Town, Ye Hongjin was sitting on the sofa in a daze, the little monk Huang Miji was busy in the kitchen, and Shui Meier was looking at Zhang Xiaoxiao, a little girl who was happily eating with a bowl of ice cream.

Since Huang Miji welcomed back the pale Ye Hongjin a week ago, Ye Hongjin stayed in the house for a whole week and did not go out, although his body was fine, but the frustration of his heart gap and defeat by the thousand-year-old ghost king has been pressing him, making him stuck in the qi transformation period and difficult to move forward.

The little ghosts who scattered out to collect information more or less sent back some information, and the entire Sanshan City has not moved a single building since the center of the city collapsed, which made Ye Hongjin even more depressed.

Li Wenjing, who lost her soul, was asked to come back by Ye Hongjin, and carefully sent someone to send her away, although Huo Ya did not come back, Ye Hongjin was not worried, he already knew Huo Ya's whereabouts, but the three-month period made him worry.

"Tempest, ......"

Ye Hongjin has sighed more and more recently, and one thing suddenly pressed over, making it difficult for him to breathe, and even his former self-confidence has been damaged.

"Ghost general, ghost general, are you willing?"

But before Ye Hongjin could sigh again, the doorbell at the elevator door rang, and it seemed that an acquaintance had visited.

Hearing the footsteps, Zhang Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and took the initiative to sneak back to her room, she didn't bother to hide her figure, but went back to the room to play games, and Shui Mei'er signaled to Ye Hongjin and followed.

Three days ago, Ye Hongjin asked Huang Miji to hang a sign of the ghost elimination office at the entrance of the community, the door of the eighteenth floor is generally open during the day, and the one who walked in was Luo Xinlong, the captain of the Sanshan City Criminal Police Brigade who had been here before, and barely had some fate.

The yellow secret traces of the barely bald head in the hall, plus Ye Hongjin who is half-pulled in a green shirt, and the hall with all kinds of snacks, where it looks like an office, it can be regarded as unique.

Luo Xinlong was stunned for a long time before he remembered his own affairs, and grabbed the back of his head a little embarrassed: "That, you asked me last time if I believe there are ghosts, I came this time, I really want to invite you to a place to help me see if there are ghosts." ”

――――――――――――――――

Approaching the middle of the night, a cool breeze was blowing, and in the faint moonlight, the jagged shade of the trees was like monsters swaying in the wind. There is no noise of square dancing, no pedestrian walking, just after nine o'clock, but there is already silence in the Qianjin community, if a huge tomb, eerie and terrifying.

Beside the low green belt, two figures cautiously jumped over, the leader was quite strong, and the figure following behind was a little thin. The two of them walked all the way and finally stopped in front of a small thirteen-story building.

"Hey, this is the scene of the crime, you should be careful for a while, don't mess with the scene, let's leave after we finish watching, don't be caught."

The sturdy figure whispered a few words, and took the lead into the dark staircase, and there was a dim yellow light on the first floor in the narrow stairwell, flickering and dimming, shining on the two of them, pulling out two slender shadows, swaying like a charm.

"The deceased's name is Qian Xinlong, male, 27 years old, no criminal record, there is a four-star hotel in the center of the city, I probably checked it before, and the family background is at least eight figures, and he is very wealthy."

"The house here is in the name of his parents, however, this community is in the suburbs of Sanshan City, and because of some developers, it has not been sold much, the whole place is very deserted, and there are more than 20 families living all year round, so this guy died in this house, no one found it at all, it happened to be the day of the housekeeping company cleaning at the end of the month, and it was discovered by the aunt who came to clean, and the aunt has not eased up now."

There was no elevator in the building, and the stout man explained to the man who followed him as he walked up the stairs.

"I said Officer Luo, I was dragged over by you, but I didn't come to help you solve the case."

Through the faint light, it can be seen that the man following behind is only in his early twenties, with sword eyebrows and sideburns, eyes like stars, and his whole face is like a jade carving.

"I'm just letting you know about the situation, and you can go up and see the rest yourself, this man is too dead...... It's so abnormal. ”

Luo Xinlong choked for a moment, didn't find a suitable word to describe it, and simply stopped talking.

These two people are Ye Hongjin and Luo Xinlong, when Luo Xinlong said the reason, Ye Hongjin was also very curious, although Luo Xinlong's personality is explosive, but it is very fine, the last time I asked Ye Hongjin, I knew that he didn't believe much in ghosts and gods, and he was able to take the initiative to break the principle and come to Ye Hongjin, which was one of the reasons why Ye Hongjin was willing to come.

Coupled with the fact that the three months set for Shaxx were just over a week, this kind of thing was too much of a coincidence.

The two of them trotted all the way to the top floor, except for the sound of footsteps, there was no other sound, and the whole building was a little quiet.

There are four households on this floor, all of which are standard duplexes, and one of them has a cordon at the door.

"This is it, Ye Hongjin, there are already two relevant people who are unconscious, as long as you get this done, the money will be a lot for you."

"Don't worry, Officer Luo, since it's a fair deal, I will naturally handle it properly, but ......" Ye Hongjin didn't continue, a hint of caution flashed on his handsome cheeks, "How many people have died here?" ”

"There's only one, what's wrong?"

"Looks like you'll need to look a little more closely."

Frowning, Ye Hongjin stepped past the waist-high cordon and pushed open the door that was not locked, and a strong smell of blood came to his face with a cold breath. Luo Xinlong, who was standing behind him, couldn't help but shiver, the cold in this room was abnormal.

After glancing around the dark room, Ye Hongjin fumbled and turned on the light, and the scene in the room made his eyes shrink for a while.

There were large blood stains sprayed near the sofa in the living room, and a one-person-wide blood stain meandered through this blood stain until it reached the front of the duplex staircase, and scattered bloody handprints were arranged irregularly on both sides of the blood stains, and then one layer after another.

"The deceased was smashed by the assailant with an axe in front ......of the sofa, leaving twenty-seven wounds, but none of them were fatal, as if in order to make the deceased more painful, the assailant followed the deceased, watching him struggle little by little and crawl to the second floor until he bled too much," Luo Xinlong took out a leather glove and put it on his hand, explaining to Ye Hongjin while demonstrating.

"That's not right."

Ye Hongjin squatted down, stretched out his hand and dipped some dried blood stains, and then stretched out his tongue and nodded, but it was as bitter as Coptis chinensis. Under Luo Xinlong's puzzled gaze, he walked step by step along the bloodstain to the second floor, but stopped halfway.

In the middle of the staircase, the deceased seemed to have stayed for a long time, and there was a large pool of blood in the place before continuing to climb up.

"We speculate that the deceased should be in a coma or pretending to be dead here, and after a period of time, then continue to climb up, seeking life, but it is strange, if it is an ordinary person, such an injury, and so much blood, it is impossible to crawl for so long."

Ye Hongjin ignored Luo Xinlong, he came to the second floor with a gloomy face, and saw the deceased who was still lying there at a glance, he stretched out his right hand, as if he wanted to grab something before he died. The bloody upper body was full of wounds of all sizes, as if it had run out of blood, and the whole body was wrapped in blood stains, like a stiff cocoon.

"It has been more than ten hours since the body was found, and no one, including his family, dared to move him, including the coroner, the four people who touched the body were already unconscious, and the coma process was long and short, and two of them were temporarily awake, but they still looked demented......"

Seeing Ye Hongjin squatting down and reaching out to touch the dead body, Luo Xinlong hurriedly rushed over with an arrow step, stretched out his hand to stop Ye Hongjin, in his heart, everyone who touched the corpse was fascinated, but for some reason, his feet were empty, and his whole person pounced on the dead corpse.
