Everything in front of me came so suddenly that when I saw Huang Ren lying in a pool of blood, my whole body was also shocked, and I suddenly felt as if I was in a dream.
However, Huang Ren's death in front of us really happened, and no matter how much we comfort ourselves with words, it is irreparable.
In a fit of rage, Wu Jiubing and I split up and searched Huang Ren's entire house inside and out, but we didn't find any strange people or objects.
Slightly suppressing the anger in his heart, Wu Jiu slowly squatted beside Huang Ren, and with his years of experience as a policeman, he briefly checked Huang Ren's body at this moment.
But he immediately found that although Huang Ren had not become a dry corpse like the former at this moment, there was a deep wound on his neck. And inside the wound, Wu Jiu could still feel a faint remnant of yin qi.
It can be seen that Huang Ren's death is absolutely inseparable from ghosts.
After thinking about it, I was able to go out in the daylight, and skillfully avoided the sight of the two Sacrifice Dao Heavenly Masters, Wu Jiu and me, and killed Huang Ren. This kind of strength, except for the Netherworld who escaped from the underworld, no one else can do it.
While the two of us were grieving Huang Ren's death, I instinctively felt that someone was staring at what was happening in the courtyard at the moment.
Looking in the direction I felt, I found that at this moment, in the building next to me, a strange woman was standing in front of the balcony with a timid face, staring at us in the courtyard.
When he saw my gaze, he looked panicked and turned and ran back into the room.
The house where Huang Ren lived was in the style of an ancient courtyard house, with an open-air courtyard behind the bungalow. This may have a lot to do with the career he is engaged in, after all, as a fortune teller, it is essential to absorb the essence of the sun and the moon every day to increase his divination ability.
On the other hand, the residents of the buildings around him can see everything happening in the courtyard at any time. Therefore, the woman just now must have seen the whole process of the killer's murder, which is why she became so nervous.
"Uncle Wu, that person may know the cause of Master Huang's death." Raising my hand to the balcony not far away, I whispered to Wu Jiu what I had just seen.
As for Wu Jiu, after hearing these words, he nodded to me. After carrying Huang Ren back to the house, Wu Jiu followed me all the way to the door of the woman's house who was standing on the balcony just now.
knocked on the door gently, and Wu Jiu politely asked the woman in the room, "Hello, girl, can you please open the door?" We're police officers and we'd like to ask you something specific. ”
At first, when the woman in the house heard the knock on the door again, she didn't plan to open the door, because the other party didn't know who we were.
After hearing the word "police", the closed door slowly opened a crack, and the face of the woman we saw just now was slowly revealed in front of the two of us through the gap.
"You're the police?" Looking the two of us up and down, the woman asked with a questioning expression.
As for Wu Jiu, at this moment, he took out his police card from his pocket and handed it to the woman, and replied: "Let's think about you to learn about the human life cases that happened in the courtyard before, and I hope you can cooperate." ”
This police card is said to be a backup document secretly left by Wu Jiu when he left the police station. Although the above date has passed a long time, it is quite practical to use it to understand some information from the people.
"Hmm." Answering softly, the woman slowly opened the door, welcomed the two of us into the living room, and after making two cups of tea for me, she sat alone on the sofa opposite us, and did not speak for a long time.
However, at this moment, I can feel from her nervous expression that what happened just now must have caused extremely serious trauma to the soul of this woman living in a modern metropolis.
"Girl, please tell us about what you just saw." After casually comforting the woman in front of him, Wu Jiu hurriedly went straight to the topic and asked in a low voice.
And the woman, who had been in a quiet state, suddenly became panicked after hearing Wu Jiu's words again, and shouted loudly: "It's dead, it's dead." ”
"Girl, don't be nervous, say slowly, how do people die?" Hurriedly suppressing the fear in the woman's heart, Wu Jiu looked at the woman with a puzzled face. Because, the moment the woman opened her mouth, Wu Jiu already knew that this woman was definitely an insider
After being appeased by Wu Jiu, the woman's expression softened a little, and after a long time, she slowly said in a very low voice: "I am a white-collar worker who lives here, and I have usually asked Master Huang Ren many times to help me calculate my fortune. ”
"Today, I happened to rest, so I washed my dirty clothes. But just as I was taking my clothes out to dry, I saw Master Huang Ren come out of the house and come to the sink to wash his black palms. Because I often ask him for divination, I know very well that after every divination, he will go to the sink in the backyard to wash his palms. At this point, the woman's expression became nervous, and Wu Jiu also knew very well that it was now a critical point in the development of things.
But the moment Master Huang Ren came to the pool, a translucent figure appeared behind him, and directly grabbed Master Huang Ren's throat with its palm. Immediately afterward, Master Huang Ren struggled, but no matter how hard he struggled, no sound came from his mouth. As the words blurted out, the woman's expression became more and more nervous.
In the process of struggling, Master Huang Ren instinctively grabbed his hands on the translucent arm that was choking his throat. However, it didn't have much effect. Immediately after, after a burst of crimson blood flowed from his neck, Master Huang Ren was thrown by the translucent figure beside the pool, and the latter slowly vanished. As soon as the words fell, the woman involuntarily covered her face and cried.
It can be seen that the incident just now has caused a lot of stimulation to this woman's mind.
As for Wu Jiu, after hearing the woman's story again, he immediately dialed the phone number of the police station and informed them of his guess: "Officer Liu, immediately order the arrest of a man with burns on his wrists, and the burn marks are like human finger alignments. Remember, after you find it, don't fight hard, just track it. Against him, your weapons don't work at all. ”
At the beginning, I didn't understand why Wu Jiu was able to immediately deduce the marks on the murderer's body after listening to the woman's words.
But later, after I really understood the science of divination, I gradually understood. It turned out that Huang Ren had already applied a layer of special pigment on the yellow paper he took out.
Although this pigment may seem ordinary, it can cause ghost-like damage to ghosts and monsters, even if it is a powerful netherworld, it will definitely not be an exception.
Huang Ren, who had just now, was going to the backyard to wash the paint on his palms, but he was attacked by the ghost who had been waiting for a long time.
However, the Nether was in such a hurry that she made such a big mistake.
I think the current Netherworld must be trying to hide the injury on his arm. Therefore, now we only need to follow this clue to find the underworld hidden in the crowd.
However, we don't have much time. After all, when night falls, the Netherworld will inevitably go out to suck human blood as a way to repair the paint burns on his body.
So, we must find the Nether by tonight. Otherwise, this clue that Huang Ren desperately left for us will be invalid.
As for us now, we can't run around like headless flies, so we have to go back to school for the time being, waiting for news from the police.
After saying goodbye to this woman, we drove back to Jijiang University without stopping.
And the moment I got off the bus, I saw that all the students in the university at the moment had become panicked because of the headlines in the newspaper this morning. I was afraid that the blood-sucking murderer hiding in the crowd would endanger his life.
I just sneered at their performance. After all, now in the school, there are me and Wu Jiu guarding the town, and the netherworld does not dare to come at will.
"Ouyang, you're back!" Seeing me enter the dormitory, Liu Daring, who was chatting happily with Chu Tian, waved at me, and immediately walked quickly to my side, turned his back, and asked mysteriously: "Ouyang, who is this person, and why do you know so much about the affairs of the underworld." In particular, the scene of the eighteenth layer of purgatory is described so vividly, as if I had experienced it myself. ”
"You stupid, I don't know who they are, and you still talk so vigorously with them." Helplessly sarcastic Liu Daring, I explained with a wry smile: "He came from the underworld to assist us in our mission." ”
After all, I sat alone on the bed behind me, and I had experienced so much in the morning that I was already exhausted.
Wu Jiu, who came in later, sat on the bed opposite me like me. Strangely, since he came in, he hadn't spoken, just sat alone, as if thinking about something.
"Senior Wu, Brother Ouyang, drink a glass of water." Seeing that both of us seemed a little sullen, Chu Tian came to our side with a stiff smile and handed me and Wu Jiu a cup of hot water.
And at this moment, I accidentally saw that Chu Tian's arm was wrapped in white gauze that only the wounded would use.
Seeing this, I immediately associated it with the translucent figure I had just seen. Then his arm quickly stretched out, grabbed Chu Tian's hand, and asked sharply, "Chu Tian, how did the injury on your arm come from?" ”
As soon as he heard my inquiry, Wu Jiu also came back from his daze and looked at Chu Tian with a strange expression: "Yes, I remember that you were not fine in the morning, why are you hanging the color on your hands now?" ”
As Wu Jiu's words blurted out, my arm immediately stretched out, wanting to tear off the gauze wrapped around his arm. But at this moment, Liu Daring inserted a bar from it and explained: "Eh, Chutian's hands are all made by me." ”
"When I poured water for someone before, I accidentally poured boiling water on someone's arm. I also blame me for being reckless, as soon as we met, I burned people. After that, Liu Daring moved to the corner like a child who had done something wrong.
"Count you lucky, it was Chutian who burned, if you change to a woman with a little more temper, you have to be demolished." casually said a joke, and I helplessly skimmed Liu Daring in the corner.
But at this moment, I suddenly realized something in my mind, and immediately asked Wu Jiu softly: "Uncle Wu, I'm a little strange, let's go to Master Huang in the morning to divinate the Netherworld, but he was killed by the Netherworld." But the woman who witnessed the whole process of the Netherworld murder was safe and sound, isn't this a little unreasonable? ”
As soon as my words fell, Chu Tian's expression on the side immediately became nervous, and he asked eagerly, "You just met the Netherworld?" ”
"No, we're just in a relationship with him." I didn't care too much about the change in Chu Tian's expression, I casually revealed a sentence, and immediately shifted all my attention to Wu Jiu in front of me.
I found that Wu Jiu was silent for a long time, and then suddenly became nervous, and shouted at me: "Boy, it's not good, that girl is in danger." ”
