There is a dry river in the village, which was once a tributary of the Yellow River, due to the change of topography and the diversion of the river, only the riverbed is left here, but because the soil is too loose and not suitable for building houses, it is vacated and the village is cut into two parts. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The forest was on the edge of the river, and after crossing the river, we reached the end of the village, where my house was. Whoever was watching in the woods and for what purpose it was, I had to figure it out as soon as possible, because I couldn't put my family in danger.

Moreover, this fire is very strange, someone must have deliberately set the fire, the person who died in the fire has a special identity, and the master suddenly disappeared, these events are obviously inevitably related, so the people in the woods must also be inseparable from these things.

No matter what way I think about it, I must catch this person and see who is behind it.

As soon as I thought of arresting people, I had a headache, in addition to the self-defense breaking charm, the one that can fight the enemy is the Tiangang sword and the lightning guide charm, but these are not used to arrest people, if you rely on your own force alone, it is likely that I am the one who was caught. Looking at Sanchi next to me, it really makes me in a dilemma, and if I go any further, I will almost reach my house, and if I can't solve the person who is following me as soon as possible, things are likely to get out of control.

What now? I was a little at a loss for a while, and I began to miss the time when I was with Lao Pan and them, there were those few people, how could I have a headache for this kind of thing.

I was thinking hard about what to do, when Sanji suddenly grabbed my arm hard, and I quickly looked up, only to see a shadow floating in the woods, and in the blink of an eye, two people came out.

I hurriedly drew my sword and held it in front of me, stretched out my hand to stop Sanji behind me, and took out the lightning guide charm with my other hand, ready to attack. Just a closer look, I found that these two people were a little weird.

In the hazy moonlight, both of them, dressed in black, walked towards us one after the other.

Although he had also felt the breath of the woods before, he didn't expect that there would be two people, the person walking in front was wearing a dark combat uniform, he didn't look very old, and his eyes seemed to be slightly panicked, and the other person was blocked by him and couldn't see his face clearly.

This person's posture is a little strange, and when he walks, his arms swing slightly with his body, like two prosthetic hands, which looks indescribably awkward.

Looking at the panicked appearance of the young man in black, I couldn't help but secretly think, could it be that this person was injured? Or rather...... Is it controlled by the people behind you?

Sanchi also noticed the problem and whispered to me, "It seems that the person in front of me has been hijacked." ”

The two men slowly approached me, stopping seven or eight meters away from us, and in the bright moonlight, the faces of the young men in front of them were clearly visible.

This man's appearance is very ordinary, I have never seen it, and his eyes flickering at me are a little uncertain, which should be a sign of weakness.

I looked at the man behind me again, and before I could see clearly, I heard a scream from the person in front of me, and threw himself directly forward to the ground, and a black shadow behind him quickly fled into the woods, and in a blink of an eye, he dodged into the forest.

I was surprised by the sudden change, what is the situation? Why did the man run away? I only saw the man's back, and I didn't know who he was.

While I was still in a daze, Sanji pushed me again, pointed at the man in black who was struggling on the ground, and I immediately rushed over and stepped on his chest, pointed the tip of my sword at his throat and said, "Don't move!" ”

The young man had never moved his arms, and as soon as he turned over with great difficulty, he was trampled under my feet, and then he was pressed against the throat by a sharp blade, and his eyes widened at once, and he did not dare to move.

"Who are you? Why follow me? I asked him directly.

The young man seemed to be frightened, and said tremblingly, "I, I didn't, I didn't follow you...... I was, I came with her, I came...... and he looked at Sanchi with his eyes.

This answer was a bit unexpected, and his target was not me, but Sanchi. What's going on? Ever since Sanji and I came out of the Land of Heavenly Punishment, we have basically not had contact with outsiders.

Even if outsiders know, it is limited to the people of the Four Seas Gang and the Wolf Gang, and now that the Four Seas Gang has been destroyed, the Wolf Gang should be controlled by Bagua City, strictly speaking, these are not outsiders, or belong to the disputes between the guardian clans.

But why did this man follow Sanchi? The situation seems to be getting more and more complicated.

It's useless to guess, since this person is right in front of you, it's better to ask him directly.

I immediately asked him, "Don't talk nonsense with me!" Let's talk about who you are, and then why you're stalking us! Honestly, if you dare to lie to me, I don't mind sending you to Hades right away! ”

As I spoke, I moved the tip of the sword down a few more points, and the sharp tip of the sword immediately pierced the skin, and the blood bloomed like a peach blossom.

The young man was so frightened that he tried to get away, but he was afraid of angering me, so he quickly replied, "I said! I say it all!! You take the sword away first...... I promise to be honest! ”

Seeing that his face was pale, he seemed to be frightened, and felt that he was just an ordinary person, so I didn't force him anymore, and withdrew the tip of my sword back a distance, staring into his eyes and waiting for an answer.

The young man trembled and said, "I, my name is Fanning, yes, a, private detective, I was entrusted by someone, so I came to follow up and investigate this ...... This little girl's. ”

Hearing the identity of this person, I couldn't help but be a little puzzled, so I asked him: "Our country allows the opening of a detective agency?" ”

The young man named Fanning immediately explained: "Well, it's not allowed yet, we're just putting it another way, it's now called a business investigation company, and it's actually doing the work of a private detective." ”

He was afraid that I wouldn't believe it, so he immediately said: "I didn't lie to you, I don't believe you look at the business card in my wallet, I am from this city, and my ID card is also in my wallet." ”

I said, "Give me your wallet." ”

Fan Ning said with some embarrassment: "I was attacked by a sneak attack just now, and my arm was dislocated by that person, and now I don't dare to move, and it hurts terribly when I move." When he said this, his voice was a little choked, and he seemed to cry at any moment.

This makes me a little funny, this kid is a novice at all, and it seems that he doesn't dare to lie to me.

However, I searched his body and found his business card and ID card in his wallet, and he was indeed from the same city as me, which is not really known by looking at the ID, because his accent is the same as our local dialect.

After reading his ID card, I realized that this kid was only in his early twenties, and he should not have even finished college at this age, and he was not deeply involved in the world, so he basically had no social experience.

I didn't bother to verify his identity anymore, so I asked directly, "Tell me, who asked you to come?" What is his purpose? ”

Fanning immediately replied: "I don't know who that person is, this list is placed online, and I don't know if the client is a man or a woman." The entrusted task is to find someone, and he asked me to come to Miaojiao Village to find a little girl, and after finding someone, determine the whereabouts, and then call him to inform him. ”

I pointed to Sanji and asked, "How can you be sure that the person you're looking for is her?" ”

Fanning said: "The man sent me a picture on the Internet, and the little girl in it was her. The sheet is in the compartment of the wallet, which can be seen by opening the zipper. ”

According to what he said, I found a photo in my wallet, although it was a little blurry, but the little girl on it was Sanchi himself.

Looking at Sanchi's clothes in the photo, they were taken in the past two days, and from the angle, they should have been taken by the monitor.

I was able to distinguish the background of the photo and recognize that it was taken inside the Grand Hotel in Salt Lake City.

After showing Sanji the photo, we were all in deep thought at the same time, who could be this mysterious client? And when did you start targeting us? Did you start at the Grand Hotel in Salt Lake City, or did you set your sights on us before that? This reminds me of the situation outside Uncle Silan's house, the villagers who were watching at the entrance of the alley at that time, will we be followed by this person from that time?

I asked Fanning some more questions, and he knew very little, only that the person had been looking for him since noon yesterday, and after placing the order, he would pass the photo to him, and asked him to rush to Miaojiao Village that night to squat, and once he found the girl in the photo, he followed it until he determined the final destination, and then called to inform.

There were too few clues to analyze anything useful, so I thought about it and asked him again, "Who attacked you just now?" What did he tell you? ”
