Because of the screams downstairs, Lin Feng and I didn't have time to finish reading the rest of the notebook, so we immediately locked the photos and notebook back in the drawer, and then rushed out of the house.

Lin Bayi clearly entrusted Xiaoxue to me before he died, at this time, if Xiaoxue has three longs and two shorts, then the rest of my life will be spent in regret.

Lin Feng had a plaster cast tied to his hands, so he didn't run fast, and I didn't have time to care about him, so I rushed out of the room first, heading straight in the direction of the mourning hall.

With my flashlight in hand, I ran almost all the way to the first floor, almost not knocking down all the old-fashioned wooden ladders.

The hall on the first floor was anomalously dark, with only a faint light near the mourning hall.

White candles, yellow wreaths, and black-and-white frames with Lin Bayi's photographs are all so numb that my back is numb.

"Xiaoxue!"

At this time, the mourning hall was empty, and no one responded at all, but I was almost sure that the scream came from here.

When I got closer and looked forward, I saw that the futon in front of me still had a concave mark. The elasticity of the futon is very good, and the mark has not disappeared, which means that not long ago, there were still people kneeling here.

Just as Lin Feng and I entered the room to check, what happened in the hall on the first floor, and where did Lin Xiaoxue go?

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew the half-hidden door open. The wind mixed with sand and dust was blowing so hard that I couldn't open my eyes.

A single incense stick was drawn from the mourning hall, facing the direction of the gate. At this time, the long incense was also blown to the ground by the strong wind, rolled twice, and went out.

It is said that this long incense is called soul incense, which is to guide the souls of the deceased who have just passed away to return to their homes before the first seven days. Now, this soul-attracting incense was directly blown out by the strong wind, which is an extremely bad omen in every way.

Xiaoxue, where did you go?

At that moment, I suddenly felt something cold wrapping around my neck, and it was a very real feeling, not like a hallucination or a fantasy.

I couldn't help but feel a little nervous, and suddenly remembered that the last time I was in the last room on the first floor, I had encountered the same thing.

Could it be that the carrion that disappeared reappeared in Lin Bayi's villa?

"Goofy, it's me, don't make a sound!" Lin Xiaoxue's long-lost voice came from behind me, and hearing that it was her made me somewhat relieved.

Turning around, he found that Lin Xiaoxue was only wrapped in a bath towel, and her hair and arms were still wet, and the indescribable parts were faintly visible.

I was very close to her, and I couldn't help but feel embarrassed when I saw it, and to be honest, her figure was really good, convex and backward, especially at this time.

Lin Xiaoxue probably noticed my eyes, her old face turned red, she instinctively tightened her bath towel, and stepped back. I also knew that I was out of shape, so I quickly avoided my gaze and changed the subject.

"What's going on, did you make that scream?"

Lin Xiaoxue looked at me and replied with a frightened expression: "It's not me!" After leaving the second floor, I went to the bathroom to take a bath, trying to calm myself down, but I didn't expect that just halfway through the bath, I heard a movement from the mourning hall.

I knew that there were no other women in the entire villa except me, and that scream was definitely not from the two of you old men, so I hurriedly wrapped a bath towel and ran out to check the situation. ”

What the? After listening to her answer, I became completely bad: "Xiaoxue, you mean, after Lin Feng asked you to leave the room, you went directly to the bathroom to take a shower?" ”

"That's right, at that time, in order to help you get into bed, I was covered in your blood, and it was not good to guard my soul with blood."

Cold sweat unconsciously gushes down my back, my God! If Lin Xiaoxue had been taking a bath in the bathroom at the beginning, then who would it be that Lin Feng and I saw the woman who had been kneeling in front of the mourning hall?

Not long after, Lin Feng held the plaster in his right hand and rushed down from the second floor. After listening to the general situation, this guy's face is about to turn green.

"According to you, there are still other people hiding in my house?"

The key is that the other party is in the dark, and we are in the light, and at this time, I don't know what the guy pretending to be Lin Xiaoxue wants to do. Lin Bayi's murder undoubtedly sounded a wake-up call for me, in addition to the Song family and the police station, there was also a certain force secretly staring at the Lin family.

I thought carefully for a while, weighed the pros and cons of various situations, and slowly said to Xiaoxue and Lin Feng: "Since there may be danger in the house, you can stay with me at the hotel next to the police station for the time being, I will discuss with Liu Hao, send more policemen over, and wait until the situation here in Z City eases down, and then you can live back again." ”

At first, Xiaoxue and Lin Feng were a hundred who didn't agree, no matter how they said that this was also their home, and Lin Bayi's mourning hall was still here, if they left like this, it would be the greatest disrespect for their father.

After I clarified the pros and cons, Lin Feng gritted his teeth and agreed. Since the other party was able to assassinate Lin Bayi, he may not be able to do anything out of the ordinary, no matter what it is, it is not worth mentioning compared to human life.

As for Lin Xiaoxue's opinion, it is not very important, anyway, Lin Feng is now on my side, and Lin Bayi has already handed her over to me before she died, no matter how much she disagrees, Lao Tzu can tie her to the police station.

"In this case, you go back separately to sort out your things, and then rush to the police station together, I will take this time to contact Liu Hao first and explain the situation here to him."

"I don't have anything to bring, besides... Besides, my brother's room is on the first floor, and my room is on the second floor, so if someone is hiding in this villa, maybe the two of us won't be safe in the house. ”

I can understand her feelings, with those strange things just now, Xiaoxue, a female forensic doctor who has always been not afraid of heaven and earth, is also a little more jealous in her heart. At the end of the day, she's just a woman, and she's got fears and wants to be dependent.

But I can't let her run around the street wrapped in a bath towel, I thought about it, and finally decided that Lin Feng would go to the room on the first floor alone to pack up things, and I would accompany Xiaoxue back to the second floor.

Liu Hao has already been notified, because of the recent events, this old policeman in his forties is also busy enough, on the one hand, he has to complete the finishing work of the "murder" case, and on the other hand, he is also responsible for tracking down the true identity of the young killer who assassinated Lin Bayi.

As soon as he learned of the situation, Liu Hao had also organized the police to come to the villa to investigate the situation, and his suggestion was that Xiaoxue and Lin Feng should stay near the police station to be protected before finding out the situation here, Lin Bayi was dead, and no one else in Z City should be harmed.

Liu Hao's arrangement is not much different from my opinion.

Besides, Lu Yuan and Da Niu had already gone to the hotel to meet the mysterious man first, and I was eager to know who the "old friend" in Da Niu's mouth was.

My character has always been not very good, and I haven't made a few close friends for so many years, so I can't think of any "old friend" who can save my life at such a critical time.

In the dark, Lin Xiaoxue wrapped herself in a bath towel and walked up the stairs cautiously.

I silently followed behind her, and although her beautiful back was close at hand, I was not in the mood to appreciate it at all. At this point, all I was thinking about was what had happened before.

What is the intention of the other party to sneak into this villa? Could it be that he wanted to do something to Lin Feng and Xiaoxue? But if he wanted to do it, he should have done it a long time ago, just like he was caught off guard when he assassinated Lin Bayi. Such a delay is not like the usual style of those killers.

After a while, Lin Xiaoxue had already entered the room to change her clothes, just in case, the door of the room was not locked, if there was any emergency, I could rush in to help her as soon as possible.

There must be a reason for this, we have been played by those bastards hiding behind the scenes, and if we can figure out the intentions of such guys in advance, we may be able to gain some initiative for the next step.

Because of the excessive blood loss from the previous injury, coupled with the series of events just experienced, my brain was a little unable to react. Taking advantage of the time when Xiaoxue was dressing, I recalled a series of things I encountered after entering the villa, and tried to find some key clues from them.

The other party first sneaked into this villa and stayed near Lin Bayi's mourning hall, and after that, he used his screams to attract me and Lu Yuan from the second floor. Although we thought that the other party's target was Xiaoxue at the first time, judging from the results, Xiaoxue did not suffer any damage.

In other words, the other party used that scream to bring the three of us together, but they didn't attack us.

Well, his intention must have been to lead us to the vicinity of the mourning hall on the first floor!

Suddenly, I felt something important pass through my mind, and my body reacted before my brain, and immediately rushed to the innermost room on the second floor.

The killer shot Lin Bayi when he was about to tell him about the specific situation of the correctional field. I don't believe that the shot was just a coincidence, that is, the other party was afraid that the former plan would be leaked, so he didn't hesitate to put Lin Bayi shut up at the risk of it.

According to this line of thought, in the entire villa, the only thing that may make those people jealous is only Lin Bayi's notebook. So the purpose of that scream was just to attract us out, and the real intention of the other party was actually Lin Bayi's notes!

I grabbed my flashlight and ran all the way to the red room. The wound on his back was still aching, and because of the excessive blood loss before, he felt dizzy and dizzy after running for a few seconds.

"Goofy, what's going on outside, why is there such a big movement?"

"It's nothing, I've eaten a bad stomach, borrow your toilet for use, and you can get dressed and come out again." Lin Feng was still on the first floor, and besides, he had a plaster on his hand, so he shouldn't be able to help much. In this case, I didn't want Lin Xiaoxue to go on an adventure with me, so I decided to go over alone to check on the situation.

Tang Yirou had made it very clear before leaving, this series of events was directly related to the incident that happened seven years ago. At this point, I don't want to see more people hurt or lose their lives because of this case. Let me bear all the things silently.

The door of the red room was open, and if I remember correctly, when he and Lin Feng rushed out of the room, he had closed the door.

Take a deep breath and hold the flashlight behind your back to suppress the beam so that no one in the room can notice my approach. At the same time, he half-bowed his steps, slowly approaching step by step.

Through the previous fight with Ke Mobai, I am already roughly familiar with the movements and attack routines of those killers. Although I am in poor health, if I can launch a sneak attack first, I am still confident that I can take them down in a few moves.

As soon as I approached the door, I heard a rustling sound coming from the house, the sound was very soft, if I hadn't noticed the abnormality of the door before, I might have gone straight into the house and ignored the movement inside.

took a deep breath and flashed into the room, only to see a black figure standing in front of the blood-red desk, and in his hand, he was holding Lin Bayi's notebook.

Depend on! How does this guy use the key to the drawer?

Before I could figure it out, I grabbed my tactical flashlight and slammed my strength into the back of the shadow's neck.

There are many blood vessels connected to the back of the neck, and if you use the right force, a blow can make the guy unconscious.

However, I still underestimated the reflexes and ability of the black shadow in front of me to resist blows.

The sneak attack I launched from behind this time was a tactical flashlight, and I used the power of heavy objects to hit his vital point, which was quite fast, and if it was an ordinary person, I might have been hit a long time ago.

However, as I was about to hit the guy in the back of the neck, the shadow twisted his body slightly, as if suddenly he had noticed something, and my blow hit him directly on the shoulder blade.

With a crisp sound, I felt like I should have broken his shoulder blade, and although he couldn't use his right hand for a while, it didn't completely incapacitate the guy.

The figure rolled and distanced itself from me. At the same time, I could see the guy's appearance clearly.

He was wearing a dark black tights, exactly the same as the one Ke Mobai was wearing, if it weren't for the fact that his eyes had adjusted to the darkness in advance and rushed into this room, he might not have been able to find out where this guy was in the first place.

He actually wore a demon mask on his face, so he couldn't see his face clearly.

The "demon" has been covering his back, and leaning towards the back step by step, it seems that my sneak attack really hit him hard, the face under the devil's mask, now must be grinning in pain.

"Hey, boy, is it really okay to go into someone's house and steal something without permission?" I continued to hold on to the tactical flashlight, taking advantage of his slow composure, and continued to approach step by step, all the while, staring at his other hand, for fear that this guy would suddenly make some move.

I know how terrifying the strength of this guy in front of me is, Ke Mobai and that young killer are a good example, they have experienced extraordinary training since childhood, so this little injury is nothing to them at all.

"Hey, buddy, why don't you talk? Let's make a deal, how can you give me back that notebook in your hand, it's very important to me! ”

I continued to approach as I distracted him by talking, and the guy was quickly cornered by me, and there was no way back.

"Brother, I would have called the police a long time ago, if you put down that notebook now, I can consider letting you out of here, otherwise, if the police come, no matter how powerful you are, I'm afraid you won't be able to escape, right?"

Hearing this, the "demon" suddenly stopped moving, grasped the notebook with a hand that was still moving, and slowly handed it over. Could it be that this guy was just convinced by me?
