Chapter 142: The appearance of the book is not accidental

"Although I have always kept the revenge of the extermination in my heart, the search for the murderer is like looking for a needle in a haystack. I tried everything I could to find the killer. However, I have retained what little bit of strength I have left about the murderer, but I can't produce the only evidence when I am not completely sure, otherwise I will accidentally lose it and lose the only clue. ”

After Ling Heng finished speaking, he shook his head helplessly, "Forget it, you can't understand this to tell you, if it's her......"

Ling Heng suddenly remembered Ye Ji.

He could ask the mysterious woman Yahime if she knew anything about the extermination of the Spirit Clan, and he had a strange premonition that Yahime would know something.

Ye August understood that Ling Heng wanted to speak and stopped, and the person he wanted to mention was Ye Ji.

Ling Heng's tone was no longer so sad, and his expression became as calm as usual, almost ruthless, "That book that recorded evil arts was found in Yunhang City, I always felt that the power of that book was very familiar, but I couldn't remember where I had seen this kind of power, maybe when I returned to my hometown, I could remember something." ”

"When are we leaving?" Ye August's tone was also very calm.

Ling Heng said calmly: "Tomorrow, don't be too anxious." I'll send you home now, you relax today, pack your clothes, and I'll pick you up tomorrow morning. ”

"Hmm." Ye August had no objection to Ling Heng's order.

On the way Ling Heng sent Ye August back, Ye August remained silent, she was not in a daze, but thinking about one thing.

"It's here. You should rest early tonight, and if anything happens, be sure to contact me as soon as possible. Ling Heng admonished with concern, and there seemed to be some vague emotion flashing in his eyes.

"Got it." However, Ye August didn't even look at him, pushed the car door and walked down.

Ling Heng cupped his forehead and said self-deprecatingly, "What am I thinking?" ”

Leaving Ye August's house, Ling Heng went to the hospital.

Although Cheng Zhijie was bled twice by Cui Xun, the wound on his heart was not deep, and after bandaging and disinfection, the doctor asked him to stay in the hospital for observation overnight, and if the wound was not inflamed and infected, he could be discharged from the hospital tomorrow.

Dong Yu was even better, she was just frightened, her body was weak, she was injected with glucose, and after eating something, her body recovered a lot.

But for the sake of prudence, the doctor also recommended that she stay in the hospital for observation for one night and be discharged tomorrow with Cheng Zhijie.

Dong Yu was worried about her son and was in a hurry to go home, but she couldn't rest assured that Cheng Zhijie was in a dilemma, Mo Xiaoya came with Cheng Tianlan.

At this time, Ling Heng also arrived.

Needless to say, the joy of seeing their son was not to mention, the Cheng couple had not forgotten Ling Heng, a benefactor, but they still didn't know who Ling Heng was.

"I have something to ask Mr. Cheng." Ling Heng only said lightly, Mo Xiaoya and Dong Yu understood what he meant, and went out with Cheng Tianlan.

"Benefactor, what do you call it? I haven't had time to thank you yet! Cheng Zhijie said gratefully.

Ling Heng replied with a cold expression: "My name is Ling Heng, and I am a detective. I don't need you to thank me, I just need you to answer me a question. ”

Cheng Zhijie said with heartfelt emotion: "It turns out that you are a detective, you are really young and promising!" Whatever questions you want to ask, just ask! ”

Ling Heng looked him straight in the eye and asked, "When you dug up that ancient book with Cui Xun, did anything else appear with that book?" ”

Ling Heng's question surprised Cheng Zhijie very much, and he asked in a daze: "How do you know about that book?" Did Choi Hoon tell you? ”

Ling Heng nodded slightly.

Cheng Zhijie immediately replied without concealment: "I did help him dig out the book, but I don't know why, I think the book feels very bad, and I am not interested in ancient books, so I didn't even touch it." I also advised Choi Hoon not to keep the book either. It was getting a little dark, and I remember that there seemed to be nothing but books. ”

"Has that land been developed?" Ling Heng saw that Cheng Zhijie was not lying, and continued to ask.

"Not yet, construction won't start until next month." After Cheng Zhijie answered, he asked Ling Heng rhetorically, "Detective Ling, why are you so concerned about this matter?" Are you interested in that book? ”

Ling Heng didn't hide it either, "Your feeling is correct, it's a book that records the evil art of harming people. Cui Xun is following the method mentioned in that book to get your heart's blood. I've put the book away. ”

To Ling Heng's surprise, Cheng Zhijie's face did not show much reproach, but he asked with regret: "There is such a thing?" Could it be that he took the risk because he had cancer? ”

"Do you know he has cancer?" Ling Heng looked at Cheng Zhijie's gaze and instantly became a little sharper.

"Yes, it was the hospital I accompanied him to. I also told him not to give up hope, now that medicine is so advanced, his illness will be cured. I really didn't expect him to choose such a path! After Cheng Zhijie finished speaking, he sighed heavily.

"Thank you for your answer, take care of your injuries." Ling Heng didn't ask any more questions, intending to leave.

Cheng Zhijie suddenly stopped him, "By the way, I remembered." When we were digging for books, I felt like I could dig deep into the hole, but it was getting dark, and we gave up without anything. Then I went back to Xinghe City, and I didn't hear Choi Hoon talk about the cave again. ”

"Thanks, I see." Ling Heng nodded to him as a sign of gratitude.

It seems that Cui Xun and Cheng Zhijie's statements are indeed the same, and Ling Heng is now more interested in the hole where the book is buried.

Seeing Ling Heng coming out, Mo Xiaoya hurriedly asked curiously, "Boss, what did you say to Cheng Zhijie just now?" ”

Ling Heng said simply: "It's just some questions about the case. ”

Cheng Tianlan was now full of admiration for Ling Heng, holding his arm with her fleshy little hand, expressing her gratitude to him, "Uncle Ling, you are so amazing!" Thanks to you for finding my parents, I don't know how to thank you, so let's do it, I'll be your apprentice, and I'll give you a pension! ”

Three black lines immediately appeared in Ling Heng's head.

"Hahaha......" Mo Xiaoya almost burst into tears of laughter.

Dong Yu immediately explained embarrassedly: "You kid, what are you talking nonsense? Detective Ling, don't mind, Tianlan just admires you too much, and he's too excited. ”

Dong Yu had already learned Ling Heng's identity from Mo Xiaoya, and also knew that it was thanks to Cheng Tianlan who found Ling Heng that the husband and wife could be saved.

Ling Heng smiled indifferently, "Tong Yan is unscrupulous, it doesn't matter." Mrs. Cheng, let Xiaoya take care of Tianlan for another night tonight, you should rest in the hospital to recuperate. ”

Dong Yu said gratefully: "Thank you so much." But I just received a phone call, Sky Blue's grandparents are almost there, and they just take care of Sky Blue. By the way, I'll transfer the money to your account later, thank you for saving your life. ”

Ling Heng nodded, showing a warm smile to Cheng Tianlan, "Study hard, don't think nonsense, you will definitely become the person you want to be when you grow up." ”

What he said to Cheng Tianlan was what the Patriarch of the Spirit Clan had said to Ling Heng, and the patriarch's kind appearance clearly appeared in Ling Heng's mind, causing a sour feeling in his heart.

Walking out of the hospital, Mo Xiaoya stretched her waist easily, "It's really tiring to take care of the child!" I'm going to have to relax tonight. What about August? Boss, why didn't you bring her here? ”

"I'm giving her a day off." Ling Heng said indifferently.

Mo Xiaoya immediately jumped up in a hurry, "You gave her a holiday?" What does this mean, do you want to fire her again? ”

Ling Heng glanced at her speechlessly, "I'm going to take her on a business trip tomorrow, let her go back to rest and pack her luggage." ”

"Where are you going on a business trip?" Mo Xiaoya asked curiously, with a faint look of gossip in her eyes.

"We're going to Yunhang City." Ling Heng was cold and reluctant to say a word.

"Yunhang, why is this place so familiar? Why are you going there? Mo Xiaoya asked unremittingly.

Ling Heng pressed his eyebrows, relieved his tired look, and told Mo Xiaoya the reason.

After hearing this, Mo Xiaoya remembered that Yunhang was the territory of the Deterrent Spirit Clan before, and immediately became alert, "Do you suspect that the appearance of this book has something to do with the extermination of the Deterrent Spirit Clan?" ”

Ling Heng's ink-colored eyes darkened, and he said in a solemn tone: "This book feels very familiar to me, but I can't remember where I have seen it. I studied a lot of occult arts as a child, and it may be a book I once studied. But all the books were burned when the Soul Warriors were wiped out, and I have to find out who kept this book, and whether there are other things in the place where the books are placed. And I don't think it's an accident that this book was discovered, maybe someone deliberately brought it back to light. ”

Mo Xiaoya immediately asked in surprise, "Could it be that another survivor did it?" ”

Ling Heng wasn't sure, "It's hard to say now." Okay, you've really worked hard, go home, come to work tomorrow normally, and take care of your home. ”

"Thank you boss! I await your good news! ”

Mo Xiaoya knows that she can't help much now, so it's better to relax herself and take care of the house honestly.

Night sets in quickly, and the night in Galaxy City is dazzling, and in some places it is even more vibrant than daytime, showing the charm of the city.

The Cold Fire Bar is now one of the liveliest spots.

Xing Jiang sat at the bar and asked for a glass of spirits, and when he took a sip of wine, the hot wine flowed down his throat to his abdominal cavity, violently stimulating his senses and making him forget all his troubles for a while.

Xing Hai went to reunite with his old classmates tonight, so Xing Jiang could only come alone to borrow wine to kill his sorrows.

"Where have they been? Am I never going to have a chance again? ”

The liquor could only temporarily ease his mood, and Xing Jiang smoked sullenly, and the smoke made his thoughts even more chaotic.

Xing Jiang raised his head, drank all the wine in the cup, and asked the bartender for another glass.

"Officer Xing, are you here too? What a coincidence! ”

As soon as Mo Xiaoya walked in, she saw Xing Jiang who was drinking alone, and greeted him with a bright smile.

Xing Jiang was also surprised by Mo Xiaoya's arrival, "Miss Mo? Are you yourself, too? ”

"yes, I'll come out and relax." Mo Xiaoya sat down beside him as she spoke.

Mo Xiaoya's smile made Xing Jiang fall into a trance, and he found that Mo Xiaoya's smile made him inexplicably comfortable.

Xing Jianghan smiled and said arrogantly: "Since we met here so coincidentally, I have all your wine tonight!" Order whatever you want! ”
