Ji Ziyue showed Shen Zezhi the dagger: "This thing doesn't look like something that the village will have, and it's worth a lot of money." Look at this brand. ”

Shen Zezhi picked it up and took a look, he knew this brand. It is important to know that knives are items to be controlled. It is very troublesome to buy this kind of thing through formal channels. But if you use the name of crafts, it becomes very simple.

This brand is a very famous craft brand, and the daggers sold are handicrafts without blades. But the dagger was clearly sharpened.

Ji Ziyue said: "I have seen this dagger on the Internet before, thousands of yuan. People in the stockade don't buy this kind of thing. It's not practical and it's so expensive. ”

Shen Zezhi said: "But this thing is not necessarily the murderer's. ”

Ji Ziyue nodded: "That's right, it could also be someone else's." By the way, team leader, what did you just ask Mi Hai? ”

Shen Zezhi said: "I asked him about the family where he had a quarrel with Hu Li. Mihai says they can't be murderers. ”

"Why?" Noriko asked.

Shen Zezhi said: "He said that it is impossible for a bone man to kill people. ”

Kiko looked at him: "That's it?" ”

Shen Zezhi shrugged: "That's it." ”

In his opinion, this reason is clearly untenable. The student's parent was the only one who had a conflict with Hu Li before his death, but for this reason, it seems to be √ ☆, w↓ww.

Shen Zezhi: "Although the reason Mi Hai said does not prove that the person is not a murderer, I also think that it is impossible for him to kill people." ”

Kiko-more agreed: "Yes." He suddenly thought of something and asked Shen Zezhi: "Group Zhang, do you say that Shen will have anything to do with Hu Li's death." ”

Shen Zezhi remembered the figure he saw that day, why did Jiang Zhicheng avoid him? Could he have something to do with Hu Li's death?

Shen Zezhi said: "Maybe it's related, but they are hiding from us now, and we have no way to be sure." ”

Ji Ziyue said: "Yes, it would be good if they were willing to come out to help us." ”

Shen Zezhi said: "We should have his reason for avoiding them." ”

After he finished speaking, he took out the magazine he found in Hu Li's dormitory and showed it to him, and Shen Zezhi pointed to a place. Ji Ziyue took a closer look and said in surprise: "Hu Li? ”

Shen Zezhi: "This is a magazine from a year ago, and this article "The Mysterious Bone Clan" is an article published by Hu Li. ”

Ji Ziyue said: "This kind of magazine is academic, and Hu Li can actually publish articles in this kind of magazine. It can be seen that he is very insightful in the study of bone feasts. ”

Shen Zezhi nodded: "I'm wondering if this will be the reason why Hu Li came here." ”

Ji Ziyue found the article and began to read it, and after reading it, he sighed: "The article is very well written, and Hu Li has done a very good job in the study of the bones." You mean, Hu Li came here because he liked the culture? ”

Shen Zezhi shook his head: "No, I didn't mean that." I mean, he's probably here for the same purpose as my brother. ”

Kiko Yue said: "Looking for that person?" ”

Shen Zezhi said: "Yes, if he is hired to come here, it makes sense." He has studied the culture of bone feasts and can speak bone feast dialects. Then it is not unassuming that he came here. And he was short of money. ”

Noriko understood: "You mean that he was hired to come here to find that person, so the person who hired him is the person who planned it?" ”

Shen Zezhi: "If someone who was involved in the plan really leaves, then that person is a threat to the others of that plan. Now that plan is gradually appearing in everyone's sight, and it has also led to a series of cases. For them, the man who broke away from the plan in the first place became the biggest hidden danger. ”

Ji Ziyue said: "Since this person can get out of that plan, he definitely doesn't want to be found by the person in that plan again." In this case, this person is the most suspected murderer. But who could this person be? ”

Shen Zezhi said: "Yes, we can find this person according to this case." If you can find this person, you will naturally be able to find my brother and Jiang Zhicheng. ”

In the afternoon, Shen Zezhi, Ji Ziyue and Mi Hai went to the home of the student's parent who had an argument with Hu Li.

Mi Hai explained as he walked: "We all call him Brother Ahu. He's a little older than us. There are two children in his family, and according to their age, the older one should be the student, and the younger one, no more than ten years old this year, is also a boy.

A few people walked to Ah Hu's house as they spoke, and his house was also a small wooden building. But it can be seen that their family's financial situation is not good, and this wooden building looks very dilapidated.

Mihai went to knock on the door, and after a few minutes a little boy of seven or eight years old ran up to them to open the door.

Mi Hai lowered his head and asked him, "Little Amu, where is your father?" ”

The little boy timidly glanced at Shen Zezhi and Ji Ziyue behind him and said, "I went to the ground with an older brother." ”

Not there? Shen Zezhi and Ji Ziyue glanced at each other and prepared to leave. At this moment, a woman came out of the wooden building. She was slightly surprised to see Mi Hai.

"Sister-in-law." Mikaido.

The woman looked at him and asked something in the bone dialect, Mi Hai turned her head to look at Shen Zezhi and Ji Ziyue, and then also answered her in the bone dialect.

"She asked who you were and what were you doing in her house? She is Brother Hu's wife. Mihai said.

Shen Zezhi: "We want to ask what happened to Ah Hu and Hu Li. ”

Mi Hai translated as she said, and the woman's face changed when she heard it. She said something in a skeletal voice, and her tone was agitated.

Mi Hai translated: "She said that Ah Hu and Teacher Hu had quarreled, but Teacher Hu was not killed by them. A skeleton man will not kill an innocent person. That would be punished by the mountain god. ”

Shen Zezhi nodded and said, "Okay, but we want to talk to Ah Hu." ”

Mi Hai translated it for the woman. The woman hesitated for a moment and agreed, she said a word to Xiao Amu, probably asking Xiao Amu to find her husband and come back.

After Xiao Amu left, the woman invited them to come in and sit down. Then she chatted with Mihai in bone words. Mi Hai's expression has always been faint, and he can't see joy or anger, but the woman has a look of embarrassment when she says a few words.

The more Ji Zi looked at Shen Zezhi, Shen Zezhi remained silent. They couldn't understand Gu Fang's words, but it was estimated that what they said should have something to do with what happened in Mihai's house.

Ten minutes later, Ah Hu returned home with his eldest son and younger son. Shen Zezhi and Ji Ziyue saw the boy who Hu Li wanted him to continue studying. He was about fourteen or fifteen years old, and he was already 1.7 meters tall. He is unusually tall in the locals. The boy was very thin, and the expression on his face was somewhat similar to Mi Hai, and he didn't seem to care about anything.

Mi Hai told Ah Hu in a bone dialect that Shen Zezhi and Ji Ziyue were coming, and Ah Hu sat on the chair and began to smoke silently after listening. It took a while before he began to speak.

Mi Hai translated: "He said: That day, Teacher Hu said that he would send Ah Shui to school outside, but I didn't agree. We have lived in Conton for generations, and my son is also a Bone Man, and he will guard our home. Teacher Hu later said that we were selfish, did not think about the children, and said that we were ignorant. I didn't understand much, but he later said that we shouldn't be like this, and that our mountain gods were not good, so I quarreled with him. But we bones will not kill good people, Mr. Hu is a good person, and we bones will be punished by the mountain god for killing good people. ”

Shen Zezhi nodded: "Did Hu Li say anything other than this?" Let's say he's leaving or something? ”

After Mi Hai finished translating, Ah Hu recalled for a while and said, "I said it." Teacher Hu said that he would leave here after a while, and when he got outside, he could help us take care of Ah Shui. ”

Noriko asked, "In that case, you."

Why don't you let Ah Shui out. ”

Ah Hu said: "Ah Shui is a bone man, he is a child of the mountain god, of course he has to guard here." We're not leaving. ”

Ji Ziyue and Shen Zezhi couldn't understand it after hearing it, but maybe this is their belief, even if they can't understand it, they can only accept it.

Shen Zezhi asked a little more about other things, but Ah Hu didn't seem to know much. And during the time of Hu Li's death, he never went out at home, which can be regarded as an alibi.

When leaving Ah Hu's house, Kiko looked back more and saw that the young man named Ah Shui was standing at the door and looked at them silently.

Kiko turned around and sighed, "It's a pity." ”

Shen Zezhi asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Ah Shui should want to go out. Hu Li died, he was very sad. Kiko crossed.

Shen Zezhi asked Mi Hai: "Aren't there so many people here who want to go out every year?" Why can't Ah Shui go out? ”

Mihai explained: "Their family is a mountain guard, and the mountain keeper can't just leave Condon. ”

Since that's the case, it can't be much. After returning home, Shen Zezhi and Ji Ziyue returned to the room to discuss the case.

Ji Ziyue said: "There is a bit wrong here, Huang Yijiao said that Ah Shui's parents didn't let him continue to go out to school because they wanted him to go out to work." But it's actually because they're mountain guards, so they can't leave here. ”

Shen Zezhi said: "Maybe Huang Yiji doesn't know the customs here very well, and he didn't know how Hu Li handled this matter at that time." ”

Shen Zezhi said and took out the resignation letter written by Hu Li to Huang Yiji and a notebook found from Hu Li's dormitory at that time, on which were Hu Li's notes for preparing for class.

Ji Ziyue asked, "Do you suspect that this letter was not written by Hu Li?" ”

Shen Zezhi nodded: "But looking at the notes, it is indeed a person." It's a pity that we can't do a special note appraisal right now. ”

Ji Ziyue said: "If Hu Li is really employed, then his resignation letter is easy to explain." He found the man here and wanted to get the news out. Naturally, there is no need to come back. ”

Shen Zezhi nodded: "That's right, but who will this person be?" ”

Ji Ziyue said: "First of all, this person must be someone from outside, not a native of Conton, and secondly, the mysterious plan started five years ago, and he also participated in the plan, so his time in Condun is no more than last year." Such a person should be easy to find in Conton. ”

Shen Zezhi said: "The premise of the situation you said is that he came to the village after he came to Kangdun, and there are so many mountains around the village, what if he didn't enter the village at all?" ”
