Chapter 144: The Body Is Found
The four people carrying the lantern took a look around them and didn't notice it, and they said, "Did it really fall here?" It can't fall somewhere else, right? ”
Shen Yinqiu stood up from behind Wan Qiyan at this time, pointed to the front and said, "Just now, Xianggong and I were standing there, but it was too smelly, so I came here." ”
Wan Qiyan followed what she said and said, "Brother Lao borrowed a lantern and let me go down to explore?" ”
Shen Yinqiu didn't plan to ask for the lantern, if I am not mistaken, there is a strange rule in this Thousand Lantern Society, that is, the lantern in your hand cannot be given to others at will, unless the other party is your favorite person.
Sure enough, as soon as Wan Qiyan finished speaking, the four people carrying the lantern all hesitated and decided to say, "Let's just help you light it in front." ”
Shen Yinqiu laughed twice in his heart, success.
Wan Qiyan rubbed Shen Yinqiu's forehead dotingly, and then made a gesture with a few of them, and then walked to the front together, and did not forget to explain: "Everyone, forgive me, it's just because the lake doesn't know where the smell is emanating, so it's not good to trouble everyone to accompany you to get closer." ”
"It's okay, it's important to find your money bag first."
Shen Yinqiu saw that they were all so kind, and felt a little guilty in his heart for deceiving them.
The stench grew heavier, and a few of them coughed unbearably, and a few of them with lanterns told them to stay behind.
But it was useless, the one who didn't carry the lantern was still by his side, Shen Yinqiu smiled at them generously, his face was full of gratitude, and then lowered his head and pretended to be trying to find it.
The fireworks had stopped at some point, and there was silence all around, because it was winter when there was no sound of insects. Shen Yinqiu clenched his mouth and nose, even the handkerchief couldn't resist the stench at such a close distance.
But the swollen object did become clearer and clearer, and Shen Yinqiu's eyes gradually widened, "Hair ......"
Several people looked up at her when they heard her words, and Shen Yinqiu looked at them with some panic and said, "Let's go back, don't need the money bag, let's go." ”
She looked very strange, and the people were puzzled when they saw this, but they didn't lose their temper, but just asked, "Why is this?" ”
Because there were many people, Shen Yinqiu was not too afraid, she pulled Wan Qiyan back a few words, and then beckoned them to step back a little as well.
"What do you see floating on the lake?" She said it so lightly and so carefully, it made people can't help but feel a chill down their backs in the dark night, and the fox mask around her waist seemed to laugh at them coldly.
A few men with lanterns, you look at me, I look at you, and finally they all looked at Shen Yinqiu, who was scared, she looked very good, fortunately, she still had baby fat on her face, a little more cute and a little charming, this would hide by the side of Xiang Gong with timidity, like the sister next door, so that they couldn't afford to have evil thoughts, and comforted: "Don't be afraid, you stand here, let's go and see." ”
Shen Yinqiu naturally wanted to go and see it, she hummed heavily, plucked up her courage and said, "It's all because I want to find the money bag to affect you, let's go together, Xianggong?" After she finished speaking, she didn't forget to ask Wan Qianyan's opinion.
Wan Qiyan naturally did not object, looking at Shen Yinqiu's eyebrows with tenderness, others saw the intimacy of the couple, and felt inexplicably relieved in their hearts, and their courage also grew.
As they approached step by step, Shen Yinqiu's spirit became more and more concentrated, and suddenly a man said, "Wait! ”
When everyone turned around, he took a stick and handed it directly to the person in front of him: "It's better for you to hold this." ”
Everyone breathed a sigh, even Shen Yinqiu was frightened just now, and the man approached the lake with a stick in one hand and a lantern in the other. There were still three steps to go, and everyone stopped.
There are half-height railings around the lake to prevent tourists from falling into the lake.
Shen Yinqiu had already seen the hair, and the bad conjecture in his heart had been established, and then looking at Wan Qianyan, he didn't know how calm he looked, and she was a little speechless.
The man walking in the front trembled his hands and did not dare to touch it with a stick, but from that shape, almost everyone already had a guess.
It's not that I'm not afraid, but it's stiff, and no one dares to move.
Wan Qiyan took two steps forward, took the stick in his hand, and through the guardrail, poked at the rising object, and there was a deathly silence.
He withdrew his stick, looked at the pale-faced everyone, and said, "It's a corpse." ”
In an instant, darkness fell, leaving only Shen Yinqiu standing behind Wan Qiyan, they all retreated behind them, grouped together, Shen Yinqiu stared at those lanterns faintly, this retreat was too fast, maybe they should be rewarded for not screaming?
No, maybe she should have screamed twice?
Thinking about it, she opened her mouth and said, "Ahhh ”
The scream only came for a short time, and he was hugged into his arms, "What's wrong?" Afraid? Wan Qiyan said in his heart, this Nizi's frightened reaction was too slow.
Shen Yinqiu buried himself in his arms and took a deep breath, then quickly pulled him away from the lake and said, "I think I should scream twice as a girl when I encounter this kind of thing, right?" But I was interrupted by you, and next time remember to note that I'm a girl, and I'm going to scream in fear. ”
Wan Qianyan: "...... When you say these words, you are out of fear. ”
"Don't mind." Shen Yinqiu took him back to where the people were.
Strangely, several people who heard the conversation between the two of them kept retreating as they approached.
Shen Yinqiu: "......" She looked at Wan Qiyan resentfully and said, "Look, because I didn't show fear, they were all afraid of me." ”
"It's not the same thing, they're afraid that I'm so calm to poke the corpse." Wan Qiyan said.
At this time, the four people carrying the lantern were a little uncalm, and tried to calm down: "Who are you and you two?" ”
Shen Yinqiu pointed at himself and said seriously: "Mortal." ”
Everyone: "......"
Wan Qiyan could only wake her up and said, "Be good, it's important to get down to business." ”
"Well, let's go back and report to the official first?" Shen Yinqiu took his hand and continued to approach them, this time they didn't retreat again, Shen Yinqiu sighed and said: "They all said that you don't let Qingzhu and them leave, now it's a bit troublesome, it's not good for us to stay here when they leave, it's not good for us to leave that corpse is blown away." ”
"No problem." Wan Qiyan didn't know what to take out from his sleeve, pulled it towards the sky, and the dazzling light flew into the sky with a sharp sound.
"You really can't compare to the fireworks just now." Shen Yinqiu looked at the rising light path.
Wan Qiyan looked at her in silence, "This is a signal flare. ”
"I know? I have that too. Shen Yinqiu said casually, and sure enough, he received a high degree of attention from Wan Qiyan, "You also have it?" Where did it come from? ”
"I slipped ......!" Shen Yinqiu's eyes slipped and he turned around, it was so dangerous, it was almost exposed.
She thought that Wan Qiyan would get to the bottom of it, but she didn't expect him to hum and didn't ask again, maybe she thought she wouldn't be normal. Shen Yinqiu breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the eight people carrying the lantern: "These people need to be interrogated?" ”
In fact, there is no shortage of possibilities for the murderer to hide in it.
Wan Qiyan swept over them one by one, and for some reason, they felt that the people who were still gentle and polite had instantly become terrifying.
"Well, please cooperate with the government's investigation."
When they heard the word "government", they were a little suspicious: "You are from the government?" ”
Shen Yinqiu was particularly confident: "Of course, he and I are both fast catchers. ”
Wan Qiyan: "......" It turns out that his wife is so slippery when she opens her eyes and talks nonsense.
"That's good, you are from the government...... But why should we cooperate with the investigation, you called us over, and we will encounter these things. ”
Shen Yinqiu also felt that they were kind before, and comforted him easily: "I won't lock you up, I just ask what you are doing here, how you found the corpse and so on." ”
It was a very normal question, but seeing that their faces were very embarrassed, someone said: "It's none of our business, it's getting late, we have to go back now!" ”
"Huh?" Shen Yinqiu didn't expect the other party to refuse, judging from the fact that they knew that she was a person from the government and then breathed a sigh of relief, they should have believed in the government more.
And they really said unanimously, "Yes, we're going back, and we'll be indefinite." ”
Shen Yinqiu: "......"
"Here we are." Wan Qiyan said suddenly.
Shen Yinqiu looked back at him: "What's coming?" ”
Just as they were about to leave, more than a dozen black-robed figures descended from the sky and surrounded them in the center.
"Lord!" With a low and powerful shout, Shen Yinqiu had an epiphany, and Wan Qiyan secretly had a manpower! Sure enough, she said that the eldest princess hated him so much, how could he grow up so big without a little power.
Shen Yinqiu's peace of mind was directly proportional to the panic of those people. "Who the hell are you and what do you want to do?"
"Cooperate with the investigation." Wan Qiyan's tone was as quiet as a stagnant waterway.
Shen Yinqiu also nodded and said, "Could it be that you have a ghost in your heart?" It's just an answer to the official's question. ”
"We! We just came here to enjoy the fireworks......"
"That's right, whatever the official asks, you will answer truthfully." Shen Yinqiu said with a smile.
During the stalemate, a teenager stood up and said, "Miss, be merciful and let us go!" ”
Shen Yinqiu looked at him with a puzzled expression.
The young man gritted his teeth and said, "Today, if it is known that we are here to enjoy fireworks, what will we think, and it is all ...... It's all men. He lowered his head, and then quickly grabbed him and led him back into the crowd.
Shen Yinqiu seemed to understand something, and looked at them very embarrassedly, "I promise not to spread the word, so I said that you are eight people who have made an appointment to come here to hide Qingjing." Isn't it true that eight people get together as friends? ”
But this festival, this location, if you are accompanied by two pairs, it is really easy to misunderstand.
The other party seemed to be a little moved, Wan Qiyan felt that Shen Yinqiu had said too much to them, and interrupted: "If you don't cooperate with the investigation, you will be treated as a murderer and suspect." ”
The eight people on the other side had no choice but to compromise.
"Go to the officer." Wan Qi Yan Dynasty was a dark shadow nearby.
The man disappeared without a sound, which shows that he is skilled in martial arts.
Shen Yinqiu was still counting how many people came, when he saw Wan Qiyan pick up her mask and bring it to her, "Are you tired?" Send someone to send you back first? ”
Shen Yinqiu immediately shook his head, "Don't go back." "Because they're far enough away from the lake, and the wind has changed, the stench isn't as strong anymore.
