Chapter 3: The Bold Girl
"My son is also afraid of thunder...... the old woman said this, her face couldn't help but be a little pale, and a look of fear appeared in her eyes, "There was also thunder last night, and I was sitting in his room secretly wiping my tears, and suddenly, after a thunderclap, I saw my son standing in front of the window!" ”
The old woman's eyes immediately widened in shock and fear, and she grabbed the old man's hand, and the old man continued: "She kept shouting, 'My son is back', I thought she wanted her son to be stunned, and wanted her to come out of her son's room, but I didn't expect to see my son too!" He opened his mouth at us with blood on his face, but we couldn't hear anything...... You say, "Is that my son's ghost asking us for help?" ”
Hearing this, Ling Heng's eyes instantly sank.
"Huo Mingxuan is indeed very unwilling to die......"
Ling Heng stopped talking and glanced at Ye August with fear, who had eased his emotions a bit.
Ye August's eyes looked straight at the ground, as if he hadn't heard them speak at all.
However, when they thought of their son's tragic death, the old couple was sad again, and couldn't help but whimper in a low voice.
Ling Heng was about to continue asking some other questions, but Ye August actually opened his mouth, "I heard that if people die unwillingly, their souls will turn into powerful ghosts, and if they don't recognize their relatives, they will harm people. ”
Ling Heng and the old couple looked at her at the same time, the old couple's face became more and more pale, and the circles under their eyes became more and more red.
The old woman sobbed and said, "If he wants my life, I can go to hell to accompany my son!" ”
Ye August held the water cup and muttered, "If he becomes a powerful ghost, he will not be your son." ”
The old woman was stunned for a few seconds, and then suddenly wept in a sad voice.
"The rain outside is a lot lighter, and there is no more thunder, please go out immediately!"
Ling Heng once again gave the order to evict the guest, and his two thick black eyebrows twisted into a dead knot.
Mo Xiaoya also felt very helpless, she didn't expect this seemingly cute little girl to come up with such a sentence.
After Ye August left, Ling Heng restrained his dissatisfaction, looked at the old couple calmly, and said, "I will do my best to find the real culprit." I can't guarantee that it will be too short, but it will be ten days at the earliest, and I can only give you this kind of promise. ”
Ling Heng's expression was tinged with faint guilt, as if he should have found the murderer within a day in order to give a satisfactory explanation to the client.
"What? Ten days? You're not kidding, are you? ”
The old man and Mo Xiaoya asked at the same time.
"Ten days is the time I am most sure of." Ling Heng pursed his lips slightly, looking even more embarrassed.
"Boss, are you crazy? The police have been in a serial murder case for almost two months without any clues, and you can find the murderer in ten days? Mo Xiaoya almost roared, and almost threw the coffee tray in his hand on his head to keep him awake.
The old man was so excited that he didn't have a heart attack, for fear that Ling Heng would regret it, he hurriedly slapped a thick envelope on the table, "Ten days!" Good! Then we'll wait! This is a deposit, and if you really find the real culprit within ten days, all the property of our husband and wife will be yours! ”
Ling Heng stretched out his white and slender fingers and took the envelope unceremoniously, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, "Deal!" ”
Mo Xiaoya respectfully sent the old couple to the door, and then ran back to Ling Heng's office with oil on the soles of her feet.
"Boss! Get rich! Mo Xiaoya stomped her feet excitedly, but the envelope was held in Ling Heng's hand.
"What do you want money for?" Ling Heng seemed to say this sentence unconsciously.
"I ......" Mo Xiaoya was stunned, and then said: "Of course it's to buy beautiful clothes and pay rent!" ”
Ling Heng's eyes kept looking at the empty desk, and he threw the envelope towards Mo Xiaoya with a "whoosh".
"Oops!" Mo Xiaoya was in a hurry to get the money, jumped into the air, and steadily caught the envelope that was thrown, and the thin high heels fell firmly to the ground, without shaking her body.
"Thank you boss!" Mo Xiaoya was about to go out satisfied.
"Where to go? Still not working? Ling Heng's gaze finally fell from the desk to Mo Xiaoya's expression, his cold eyes were like sharp knives.
"Yes!" Mo Xiaoya responded straightly, squinted her eyes and said, "I'll go and put the money away first!" ”
Ling Heng held his forehead helplessly, regretting his impulsiveness.
Mo Xiaoya drove Ling Heng's domineering black big off-road, although she was still wearing a shirt and a short skirt, her high heels had been replaced by small white shoes.
Ling Heng sat in the co-pilot's seat, his elbows supporting the window, the back of his hand resting on his smooth chin, his eyes were empty, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Mo Xiaoya secretly glanced at Ling Heng, who was sitting beside her, no matter what the weather, he was wearing a long-sleeved shirt and tying every button meticulously, and secretly swallowed his saliva.
With a hard foot on the accelerator, they soon came to the hotel where the first case occurred.
Hualong Hotel.
"I'll go, this kid is so generous, a five-star hotel!" Mo Xiaoya's face was envious, and she sighed with emotion.
"Huo Xuanming was staying in room 1808 at the time, and it was noon check-out time when he was discovered. His blood was drained, his entire skin was peeled off, his abdomen was violently torn apart, and his heart and liver were missing. However, because the blood was sucked dry, the scene was actually relatively clean. ”
After Ling Heng finished speaking, there seemed to be a look of appreciation on his face.
Who made him just like to be clean?
If all the murderers can keep the scene clean and tidy, then he still likes to visit the scene of the murder.
Mo Xiaoya raised her eyes to look at him, the corners of her mouth twitching slightly.
The two of them pressed the elevator directly on the eighteenth floor.
Although almost two months have passed since the murder, the business of the Hualong Hotel is still extremely bleak under the influence of the murder, 1808 is still blocked, and almost no one occupies the entire eighteenth floor.
"I said it can't be eighteen! Who let this be a foreign boss, I don't understand any feng shui! ”
One cleaner is gossiping with another.
When they saw Ling Heng and Mo Xiaoya, their eyes widened as if they had seen a ghost.
Out of the elevator door, Mo Xiaoya couldn't help but shudder, "Boss, it's really gloomy here." ”
"Hey, are you guests staying here?" The cleaner stopped gossiping and looked at them curiously.
"Let's take a look at the room." Mo Xiaoya replied neatly.
The cleaner smacked his lips, "Tsk, it's really bold!" A few days ago, a little girl lived on this floor by herself, and you young people really have nothing to hide! ”
"Which room does she live in?" Ling Heng asked keenly.
“1809!” After the cleaning finished, he looked over there secretly.
Ling Heng and Mo Xiaoya looked at 1809 at the same time, and Mo Xiaoya sincerely admired this girl who dared to boldly move in next door to the murder scene.
The elevator door opens again, and a girl steps out of the elevator.
"Is that you?"
Ye August lifted his glasses and opened his pink mouth slightly in surprise.
"Is that you?" Mo Xiaoya came to Ye August in a few steps and looked at her incredulously.
"Why are you here?" Mo Xiaoya was still holding a transparent umbrella in her hand, and the rain flowed down the tip of the umbrella to the ground.
Ling Heng's brows furrowed slightly.
"She's the little girl who lives in 1809! So you know each other! Let's talk first, let's go clean up on another floor! ”
The two cleaners walked into the elevator as if they had escaped, eager to leave this unlucky floor immediately.
Mo Xiaoya looked at Ye August and nodded, "Okay, you, you actually live in a five-star hotel!" You are Bai Fumei! ”
Ye August's white and tender little face instantly turned pink, "I...... When I came here, the other hotels were full, so I had to stay here. ”
"When did you come from?"
"You're not a local?"
Ling Heng and Mo Xiaoya spoke in unison.
"I checked in on June 18th." Ye August's eyes were very calm, and under Ling Heng's careful observation and confirmation, she was not lying.
"I'm from Tiancang City." Ye August did not forget to add.
"How many days have you been here? Have you been living here just to get a job? Mo Xiaoya still thinks that she is a white rich beauty, otherwise how could she have lived in a five-star hotel for nearly a month!
Even if the hotel is discounted, it won't be the price of cabbage, right?
Ye August pushed his glasses, "Uh...... I'm just looking for a job. ”
Mo Xiaoya hurriedly asked, "Then do you know that next door to you is the room where Huo Mingxuan lived?" ”
"Yes." Ye August replied softly.
"Then you're not afraid?" Mo Xiaoya felt more and more that this little girl was amazingly bold.
Ye August stretched out his red little tongue and licked his lips and shrunk his neck, "It's not false to say that I'm not afraid at all, but everyone is dead, what else will happen?" ”
Ling Heng snorted coldly: "You can think about it!" ”
Ye August didn't look at him, looked at Mo Xiaoya and asked softly, "What are you doing here?" ”
"Of course, we are here to find out the ...... of Huo Mingxuan's death" Mo Xiaoya didn't wait to finish speaking, and was blocked by Ling Heng's cold eye knife.
Ye August still didn't care about Ling Heng's attitude, and said sincerely: "Do you want to come to my room to sit?" Drink some hot water? I didn't expect the temperature to be so low in July. ”
Mo Xiaoya was very curious and wanted to go to Ye August's room to have a look, but Ling Heng didn't seem to have any curiosity.
His gaze had already fallen on the door of 1808, and his beautiful thick eyebrows were slightly twisted together, as if he wanted to see through the sealed door and see every corner of the room.
"Let's go."
Ling Heng suddenly turned around.
"Boss, where are you going?" Mo Xiaoya asked strangely.
Ling Heng replied impatiently: "Just follow me!" You've been talking a lot of nonsense lately! ”
Mo Xiaoya had no choice but to walk into the elevator with Ling Heng quickly, and did not forget to tell Ye August, "You go back to the room quickly, don't come out if it's okay!" ”
Ye August looked at the two of them in a daze, and it wasn't until the elevator door closed that he withdrew his gaze and took out the room card.
The beautiful and clear eyes hidden behind the cute glasses suddenly turned blood-red, and they suddenly looked at 1808......
