Qi Rongcheng, more than half of the journey to here has passed, and he will be able to reach Yangzhou in one day.

At this time, Ling Lan was on the wooden bed of an inn in the city, looking at the pouring rain outside the window opposite.

This rain came quickly and quickly, from the time they first arrived in Qirong City, it began to rain, and now it has been about half an hour, and the rain has not abated.

In this bad weather, Mo Ziyu actually went out, saying that she saw her old friend and asked her to rest first, and Ye Feng was next door without worrying about danger.

She hadn't thought about the danger, because the journey was very smooth, and there were no accidents, she was just curious about who Mo Ziyu went to meet?

I don't know how long the heavy rain finally subsided, and the cranky Ling Lan also fell asleep in the sound of the rain...

Early the next morning, as soon as Ling Lan woke up in a daze, she heard a knock on the door, it was Mo Ziyu.

She shouted to wait, got up and got dressed, walked over and opened the door, and almost instantly a pungent smell of blood hit her, making her faintly nauseous.

couldn't stop coughing a few times, barely suppressing the discomfort, and when she adjusted her state, she found that the man was already sitting at the table and drinking herbal tea.

"You, just came back from outside?" Ling Lan realized something and strode over.

"Hmm!"

And so it was.

Next, without waiting for Ling Lan to ask the man again, he said in a deep voice: "Pack up your things and leave now." ”

"Why?"

Mo Ziyu picked up the teacup and brought it to his mouth, raised his head and drank it all.

"It's not safe here."

————

The three of them set off without breakfast, although Mo Ziyu didn't say much, Ling Lan still guessed a few points, especially Ye Feng's face didn't look right, and there was also a pungent smell of blood on his body, if it was right, he should be injured.

She was vaguely aware that the rain outside last night wasn't as calm as it seemed.

In front of the gate of Qirong City, just as it was their turn, they heard a crisp sound of horses' hooves, and they quickly came to a nearby stop from far to near.

Lifting the curtain, Ling Lan looked, and someone turned over and dismounted and went straight to their carriage.

Then she saw the person who came kneeling down and saying a few words about Qi Rongcheng Wu County, and begged Mo Ziyu to go down and speak.

What does the prefectural order do?

In surprise, Ling Lan tilted her head and looked at it a few more times, the other party was in his early forties, not tall, slightly fat, with a very round face, small eyes, the clothes on his body looked very plain, and the black boots were stained with a lot of mud.

At this time, the other party looked anxious but didn't say what it was, listening to the other party's meaning was to know Mo Ziyu's identity, and fortunately the other party was passing by here, hoping to sit in the house, to the effect.

Mo Ziyu bluntly refused, saying that there was still something important to hurry up.

However, the person who came did not give up, and after a very complicated emotion flashed in his eyes, he slowly got up and approached Mo Ziyu, at this time Ye Feng was full of vigilance and was ready to make a move at any time.

Just when Wu Xian Ling came to Mo Ziyu's meter away, he stopped, and after whispering a few words, Mo Ziyu's face changed significantly, and after a period of silence, he finally agreed.

Ling Lan was surprised, I don't know what Wu County Ling said to make Mo Ziyu change her decision?

Especially now that I am in a hurry, I have changed my itinerary for this reason.

When Mo Ziyu returned to the carriage, Wu County Ling also got on the horse, turned the horse's head and led the way in front of them.

As soon as he sat down, Mo Ziyu explained: "There is a more difficult case, the victims are all young girls, and they were killed on a rainy night, the girl who had an accident last night is the seventh person after entering the rainy season, because there are few pedestrians on a rainy night, all clues have also been washed away, so there are no clues until now." ”

Ling Lan's first reaction was a rainy night killer, this is no stranger!

Thinking about it, Mo Ziyu continued: "I have heard about this case before, but when I knew about it, there were only three girls, and I never thought that there would be four more girls, Wu County Order really can't find out this case, and he can't explain it to the top or bottom..."

Mo Ziyu briefly recounted what she knew, and Ling Lan was surprised when she heard it, whether this murderer had really changed. Not necessarily, but the IQ is definitely extremely high.

"But how does he know your whereabouts? Can you still stop the carriage here? Ling Lan wondered.

"Our whereabouts are not secret, although it was evening when we left the capital, it was also a fair departure, especially this carriage is much larger than ordinary carriage, it is estimated that it will not be long before many people can know who the owner of this carriage is."

Forehead!

Ling Lan sighed, it's better to keep a low profile, but this carriage is really comfortable, even if it is too high-profile, she shouldn't change back to the hard and narrow carriage before, and besides, it's a blessing or a curse, but a disaster can't be avoided!

Before the conversation between the two ended, they arrived at their destination, the county government office of Qi Rongcheng, Ling Lan got out of the carriage and found that Ye Feng was looking at something in a daze, and looked at him with a gaze and couldn't help but be stunned, the yamen drum used to sound grievances outside the yamen actually broke a big hole, and it looked like it had been deliberately destroyed.

Wu Xianling let out a heavy sigh on the side, and made a gesture of invitation to signal a few people to go in and speak.

In the hall, as soon as the two of them sat down, they saw Wu Xian Ling kneeling on the ground without warning.

"Master Mo, Xia Guan really can't do it, if he doesn't catch this murderer who was stabbed a thousand times, there will be a girl killed, but Xia Guan can't find half a clue after racking his brains, now that January has passed, Xia Guan implores you and Miss Ling to help."

Ling Lan had already stood up to support the other party, she couldn't bear this kind of kneeling and bowing, but Mo Ziyu was still sitting steadily, with a solemn expression.

Breathing a sigh of relief, Ling Lan adjusted her state, and then asked the other party to start from the beginning, don't be in a hurry about everything.

Time passed slowly, after the other party told Ling Lan gradually understood the matter, it is said that the murderer likes heavy rain the most, almost every heavy rain since entering the rainy season will have a girl have an accident, so heavy rain is a necessary condition for the other party to kill, sometimes it is heavy rain for two consecutive days, then he kills two people in a row, sometimes there is heavy rain for more than ten days, then he kills people for more than ten days, and the only rule is heavy rain nights.

The girls in the accident ranged in age from fifteen to eighteen years old, all of them died of drowning, they had been defiled before they died, their clothes were disheveled and scarred, and their bodies were found in different places in Qirong City, these seven places spanned a large distance, and there was no pattern to follow...

After Wu County's order was finished here, Ling Lan and Mo Ziyu glanced at each other.

Mo Ziyu got up and offered to take a look at the bodies of the murdered girls, Wu Xian Ling suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and nodded again and again.

He was really worried that the arrogant and indifferent Lord Mo would refuse, after all, people had their own affairs to deal with when they went out, and they were not only unfamiliar with each other, but they had never known each other, according to Lord Mo's reputation and temperament outside, he had always been very apprehensive in his heart, but fortunately, the other party was not as rejecting people as rumored to be thousands of miles away.
