After noon, Xu Jianping came to the Criminal Investigation Department of Kyoto Prefecture, on the hall, he sat opposite the ruthless girl, today's ruthless girl was dressed in a red poor dress, and the three thousand green silk pavilions had a cloud sideburns, bright eyes and bright teeth, heroic spirit, and was looking at the case documents with a focused expression.

After a long time, the ruthless girl raised her head, looked at Xu Jianping, who was bored at the table, and said, "What do you mean, this case may be the same as the previous cases in the division. ”

Xu Jianping retracted his dull eyes and said, "Because it is the same group of people, but there are also things that are unreasonable. ”

Ruthlessly replied, "Tell me what you think." ”

Xu Jianping sat upright, "You see, the three cannibalism cases that the Criminal Prosecution Department was responsible for before were all in remote places, and each case was based on a family unit, and most of them were lonely and widowed people, but this time Huahuo Street did the opposite, first of all, the number of victims in this case is as many as 140 people, including many Lian Jiazi, and it is close to the imperial city, the most important thing is that a corpse who has observed this case has found that although it was bitten and eaten and died of excessive blood loss, only a few corpses were eaten in a large area, Many of the corpses were mutilated but not consumed. ”

Xu Jianping compared the situation observed at the scene today with the corpses in several previous cases of gnawing in the Criminal Prosecution Department, and found that if the previous case was to maintain the flesh of the "dry fish" and to satisfy the stomach, then this case is obviously not, because the flesh of most of the corpses is still in place, which is the biggest difference between the two, and the motives are different.

Hearing this, he pondered for a moment and said, "I understand what you mean, you suspect that this case may have other intentions, and the reason why many people were killed may be just the surface. ”

Sure enough, he is a smart person, and he can understand it at one point, Xu Jianping nodded, and said to him, "Yes, this move is a move to cover up, as long as we find out the real intentions behind it, we may be able to find out who is behind it." ”

Red Sleeves stood up ruthlessly, took out a booklet from a compartment behind him, handed it to him, "This is the file of the Criminal Prosecutor's Department investigating the cannibalism case in recent days, you can take a look at it first." ”

Xu Jianping took it with both hands, opened it and looked at it, and recorded the details of the follow-up investigation of the case in detail, the most important thing is that after the careful search of the people in the Criminal Investigation Department, it was found that the places where this group of "drought fish" disappeared after committing several crimes were all by the river, by the Weishui River.

Xu Jianping pondered for a moment and said, "You suspect that their nest may be on the banks of the Weishui River. ”

Red Sleeves nodded ruthlessly and replied, "Yes, since the beginning of this month, the Queen Mother's birthday is approaching, and the eight gates of Kyoto have already been heavily guarded. ”

After a little analysis, Xu Jianping understood the meaning, "We may be able to gain something from surveying all the way along the waterway." ”

Red Sleeves nodded ruthlessly, "Yes, before you came, I had ordered everyone in the division to strictly survey along the eight water areas of Zhushui, Weishui, Jingshui, Weishui, Fengshui, Waterlogging, Chanshui, and Bashui, but the water area is too large, and it will take some time to make a harvest." ”

Xu Jianping couldn't help but secretly marvel at it, sure enough, the first of the four famous shops is worthy of its name, but Kyoto's eight rivers and five canals, extending in all directions, such an investigation, I don't know what year and month to get results, Xu Jianping recalled the disappeared blood mark on Huahuo Street today, and said, "Weishui, it must be in Weishui." ”

Red Sleeves was a little surprised and asked, "Why do you dare to conclude that it is in Weishui." ”

Xu Jianping didn't hesitate, "Believe me, you just think this is a man's intuition." ”

Ruthlessly nodded, "Let's go, let's go and investigate." ”

Xu Jianping did not hesitate, followed closely behind, and the two hurriedly went out together.

Weishui, a small boat is along the river bank from west to east, down the river, at the bow of the boat, a man and a woman stand still, from time to time there are bursts of discussion.

Xu Jianping looked sideways at the ruthless delicate face and bumpy figure, and thought to himself, "If it wasn't for the investigation of the case, in fact, in this hot summer, it would be a good experience to go down the river with beauty and watch the prosperous Kyoto all the way at that time." ”

On the second bank of Weishui, there are bursts of noisy sound from time to time, when passing by Huahuo Street, the Zhangtai Street on the right side is full of people, it is only about four o'clock in the afternoon, the major fireworks restaurants have already opened their doors to welcome guests, from time to time there are exposed, wearing flowers and branches of the girl shouted to the two people passing by, "This handsome little brother, come up to drink tea." Sure enough, these words are not divided into generations, but only men and women.

When Xu Jianping heard this, even though he didn't have this intention, after all, he was twenty years old, and his upright blood and qi were just right, and his body couldn't help but have a natural reaction, his face was a little red, and his red sleeves turned his face ruthlessly, and snorted coldly, "Men are all the same." ”

Xu Jianping was a little confused, and when he was still holding grudges about the first time they met, his unintentional actions quickly explained, "Ruthless lord, you are a righteous man and a gentleman, don't be wronged, you have never been to such a place of profit." ”

ruthlessly broke his mouth and replied, "Is the matter of Concubine Xiaoxiang a rumor?" ”

Xu Jianping was completely speechless at this time, thinking about it, with the ability of the Criminal Prosecutor's Department, if he wanted to investigate a person's past, it was a simple matter, so he no longer responded, but changed the topic and said, "Investigate the case, investigate the case is important." ”

In this way, walking and stopping, whenever they saw some strange or unusual places, Xu Jianping and Ruthless turned over to the shore to investigate, and finally, at eight o'clock in the evening, the boat had been floating in Weishui for four hours, looking at the east gate of the city that was close at hand, the ruthless girl said, "It seems that your intuition is wrong, this is about to go out of the city." ”

Xu Jianping was extremely excited at the moment, because he finally found the place he was looking for, since the theft of the night pearl in the imperial city, the two black-clothed thieves were evacuated from the east gate of the city, and the "drought fish" that day was also at the east gate of the city, and the Weishui from west to east, flowing through the whole city, it was also the east gate of the city, everything pointed to this place, Xu Jianping hurriedly stopped the boat, and said to him, "It's around here, their hiding place must be here." ”

After speaking, Xu Jianping took the lead in a dragonfly to point the water, turned over and got off the boat, jumped to the river bank, and chose a higher house on the roof, looking down to see if there was any strange courtyard or house.

Seeing this, Ruthless also knew that it was not a joke, and then stood on the other side of the riverbank, looking around as well.

"There!"

As soon as Xu Jianping's soul eye opened, the power of the Dao soul scanned the surroundings along his gaze, and finally in a biased courtyard, a powerful barrier force blocked the investigation of his soul power, and suddenly there must be a demon.

Xu Jianping shouted, "You quickly go and inform everyone, and go to investigate first." ”
