Chapter 144: Back to Yunhang
Although Xing Jiang's words were abrupt, they also played a good role in easing the atmosphere, Mo Xiaoya's gossip heart was immediately ignited, and she asked energetically: "Are they together?" Who did you hear about it, and how did I not know? ”
Xing Jiang replied solemnly: "I heard from Detective Ling himself, he said that he was already dating Miss Ye. They went on a date on the night the taxi driver was killed, in the driver's car, and they were the last passengers. ”
Xing Jiang's words reminded Mo Xiaoya of what the driver's soul said, he said that the person who killed him was a female ghost.
But Mo Xiaoya was a little skeptical of the driver's statement, and felt that Ling Heng's attitude was a little strange.
However, she couldn't tell Xing Jiang about these speculations, so she continued to ask in a state of unknowingness: "Are the two of them really dating?" I said something was wrong with the two of them how I thought they were! These two guys, how do you do the secrecy work so well? I didn't even know it! But what do you mean by that? The two of them were the last passengers of the driver, do you suspect that the driver's death had something to do with them? ”
"I already asked them yesterday that they should have nothing to do with the driver's death. Because Detective Ling was drunk and unconscious at that time, but Miss Ye was ...... She said that the driver took advantage of Detective Ling's drunkenness and had evil thoughts on her, and then she was frightened and fainted, and when she woke up, the driver was already dead. Xing Jiang's tone was still suspicious, but he didn't know what he was suspecting.
Mo Xiaoya was really surprised this time, because Ling Heng and Ye August had never mentioned to her that night, Ye August was almost violated.
However, Ye August said that after she was scared, the driver died inexplicably, which couldn't help but make Mo Xiaoya think of another person in Ye August's body, Ye Ji.
Could it be that Yahime killed the driver?
Mo Xiaoya suddenly understood, so everything made sense!
Nine times out of ten, the person who killed the driver is Yahime!
But if that's the case, what should Xing Jiang do? Isn't there no possibility of solving this case?
"Why am I still worried about him!" Mo Xiaoya found that she was still thinking about Xing Jiang at this time, and she was almost hopeless.
"Of course, our boss and August can't be the murderers, you have investigated this case!"
Mo Xiaoya said with a cold face, and began to create the image of an "iceberg beauty" in front of Xing Jiang.
The corners of Xing Jiang's mouth pulled up a wry smile, and he shook his head helplessly, "I don't know what's going on with the current case, it's all about demons and monsters, I think the murderer this time may also be a ghost!" ”
Mo Xiaoya didn't say anything more, because she didn't know what to say again.
Xing Jiang also stopped talking, and the awkward atmosphere hung over their heads until Xing Jiang drove the car to the gate of the community that Mo Xiaoya spoke.
"Remember what I said, nothing happened last night, and we haven't met! I just drank too much and opened a room! If you dare to tell anyone about this, be careful I let you know how good I am! Mo Xiaoya's fierce appearance made Xing Jiang very embarrassed, because he was really a little afraid of Mo Xiaoya.
But after Mo Xiaoya got out of the car, Xing Jiang did not leave in a hurry, but watched Mo Xiaoya, even if she disappeared from sight, Xing Jiang still looked blankly at the direction Mo Xiaoya left, and after a while, he left with guilt and self-blame.
He wouldn't have known that Mo Xiaoya had been watching him since he got home, and found that his car had stopped for a while before leaving, but Mo Xiaoya didn't understand why Xing Jiang did this, thinking that it was Xing Jiang's guilt.
Fortunately, Ling Heng and Ye August went on a business trip, and Mo Xiaoya could calm down alone in the office.
On the way to Yunhang City, Ling Heng's face was always gloomy, the place that made him so sad that he didn't want to go back was still going back after all.
The journey from Xinghe City to Yunhang City was only one day, and Ye August could see that Ling Heng was in a bad mood, and he had hardly said anything this day.
Before dark, they entered the urban area of Yunhang City, which had changed drastically from a hundred years ago.
All traces of the existence of the Spirits have been wiped out, and no one knows who the former owner of this place is.
There was also a good side to such a big change, Ling Heng was now only concerned about observing the new Yunhang City, and temporarily suppressed his sadness in the bottom of his heart.
Ling Heng drove the car directly to the northern suburbs and stopped at the door of a hotel closest to the northern suburbs.
The two of them walked in one after the other, and without waiting for Ling Heng to speak, the receptionist at the front desk said directly: "Sir, madam, I'm sorry that there is only one romantic big bed room left, but you two are first-come, first-served, and there will be no room for any later night." ”
"There's only one room left?" Ye August frowned reluctantly, she had thought about it before, would such a bloody thing happen, but she didn't expect such a thing to happen!
"That's it." Ling Heng said expressionlessly, turned his head and ordered Ye August again: "What are you still doing in a daze, quickly take out your ID card." ”
Ye August whispered in embarrassment: "But there is only one room left!" ”
Ling Heng stared at her resentfully without saying a word, staring at Ye August straight, and Ye August immediately obediently took out his ID card and put it at the front desk.
The front desk receptionist looked at the two of them with a strange look, and said in his heart, could this talented and beautiful little couple be awkward?
After checking in, Ye August reluctantly followed Ling Heng into the room.
Ye August reluctantly put down his luggage, standing at the door awkwardly and not wanting to take another step forward, but Ling Heng walked to the side of the bed generously, and said to Ye August frankly: "Don't think nonsense there, you sleep on the bed, I can sleep on the ground." ”
"Isn't that okay?" Ye August was still hesitating.
Ling Heng said impatiently: "If you feel bad, let's sleep in this bed together!" ”
"No, no......" Ye August refused very simply.
Ye August finally came to the bedside, Ling Heng pointed to the cabinet next to the bed, "There are instant noodles, let's eat something tonight, let's go down to business after eating." ”
"Downtown?" Ye August was stunned.
Ling Heng was looking out the window and said coldly, "Only when you have enough food can you have the strength to dig a hole." ”
Ye August then remembered the purpose of their trip, that's right, her boss took her to dig a hole.
At the end of the day, Ye August and Ling Heng were busy on the road, and they only ate some biscuits at noon, Ye August touched his rumbling stomach, and he didn't think that eating a bowl of instant noodles was a casual dinner.
"Boss, I'll help you soak the noodles." Ye August said softly.
"No need, you can eat it yourself, I'm not hungry." Ling Heng coldly rejected her.
Ye August pouted, "You don't feel hungry, but your body is hungry, you won't count on me as the main force to dig the hole, right?" ”
Ling Heng turned around helplessly, "What's going on in your head?" Do you think I'll do that? ”
Ye August didn't take care of him anymore, and he also made a bowl of noodles for Ling Heng on his own initiative.
"When are we leaving?" Ye August asked when he was full.
Ling Heng looked at his watch and replied expressionlessly, "It's about eleven o'clock." ”
Ye August hurriedly said: "Do you need to be so late?" Isn't there no one in that place? ”
Ling Heng glanced at her with hatred, "Do you know what prudence is?" And at that time, the yin qi was in full swing, and there might be an unexpected discovery. ”
Ye August nodded silently, seeing that it was still early, he sat on the bed alone, lay down carefully, and secretly glanced at Ling Heng with his eyes.
Ling Heng sat on the chair with his eyes closed, a little tiredness on his face.
"This city is his hometown, does he remember the sad past at this time?" Ye August's eyes couldn't help but reveal a distressed look.
"It's time, it's time to go."
Ling Heng called her softly beside Ye August, Ye August opened her eyes suddenly, her eyes were glowing with a faint cold light, her eyes made Ling Heng can't help but think of Ye Ji.
"Is there anything on my face?"
Ling Heng's gaze made Ye August not very embarrassed, and immediately lowered his head.
"Let's go." Ling Heng retracted his gaze with a depressed expression.
If he didn't need to go to work now, Ling Heng really wanted Ye Ji to appear, and ask her what the relationship between her and Ye August was, whether they were two independent souls, or two personalities of one soul.
After sitting in the car, Ye August remembered one thing, "Boss, what tools should we use to dig holes?" ”
Ling Heng said indifferently: "You don't have to worry about this. You'll only need to be responsible for lighting the wind. ”
"Okay then." Ye August secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The road to the northern suburbs is very secluded, especially at this time, it is really quiet in the dead of night.
Ling Heng looked ahead and muttered to himself in a low voice: "The northern suburbs are close to the old town of Yunhang City, and the old city is the town where our Spirit Clan lives. At that time, the Deterrent Soul Clan was wiped out, and the appearance of Yunhang Town in the world coincided with the troubled times, and people thought that the town had only been looted by bandits or warlords, and no one went to track down the murderer. They rebuilt the town from the ruins, but no one was a Fearful Clan. ”
Although Ling Heng's tone was not so sad, his low and slow voice was enough to make people feel sad and make Ye August feel heartache, but she didn't forget to keep her sanity and said, "Will the other survivor still stay in Yunhang at that time?" ”
"I didn't know there was another survivor before, but your words reminded me that he was probably still in Yunhang Town at the time! It's just that I've never cared about Yunhang Town, where there are no intimidating spirit people, and now I can't find out who the residents of the town were at that time. Ling Heng sighed regretfully, deeply annoyed.
Ye August's eyes immediately lit up, and he guessed excitedly: "Assuming that he really stays in Yunhang Town, then the cave we are going to dig deep may have something to do with him!" That book may be some kind of clue he left for you through Choi Hoon! ”
"You have a point!" Ling Heng unconsciously quickened the throttle.
