Chapter 149: I Didn't Kill (4)
Officer Qian pulled Captain Huang away in a hurry, and neither of them noticed the shadow cast in from Fang Tian's bedroom window.
The shadow seemed to grow, gradually taking on a clear outline from the blur.
The image was of a man hanging upside down outside the window, his hair tied up in a ponytail dangling back and forth.
In that shadow, you can still see the hand raised, as if holding something, close to the ear.
ββ¦β¦ Well, I did. I wanted to scare the scumbag. Hey, hey......" Yi Xin's voice sounded outside the window.
The shadow swished and disappeared into the room.
On the exterior wall of a residential building, a figure is pasted between the upper and lower windows.
The man was like a piece of paper, jumping lightly on the edge of the window.
Yi Xin was still holding his mobile phone and jumped to the top floor of the residential building. She didn't run, but with such a stride, her body crossed a beautiful parabola in the night sky and landed on the roof of another residential building.
She paused and muttered to Xue Xiaolian on the other end of the phone: "I just want to scare him." The boss has already said it. Take care of the newcomer~ I know. Don't worry, I can't kill him if I want to. Ha! She suddenly laughed, but the smile didn't last long before she showed a surprised expression, "How did you guess?" β
Xue Xiaolian on the other end of the phone replied calmly: "Isn't this an obvious thing?" β
Yi Xin was a little depressed.
The boss thought of it, and Xue Xiaolian also thought of it, but she didn't react.
When something happens, looking back and thinking about it, it will not be surprised, but only annoyed that you are slow to react.
"The mourning bird has gone mad. That ghost too. Is madness contagious? Yi Xin was still jumping on the roofs of residential buildings, and he didn't forget to chat with Xue Xiaolian.
The trajectory of her jumps changed slightly. Sometimes the distance between the two residential buildings is so large that she jumps into the air and falls, but after a small fall, she will fly up out of thin air for a while and continue to fall, and so on until her feet are on the roof of the building.
There was also a sound of wind coming from Xue Xiaolian's side, but it was not the sound of objects flying high in the air, but the wind brought up by the car when it was moving.
"I don't know if madness is contagious, but obsession is contagious." Xue Xiaolian said.
"Oh. Are you coming? Yi Xin changed the subject, reported his current position, and asked, "What about the newcomer?" β
"I just came out of the police station, and I'm still a little shocked." Xue Xiaolian said indifferently.
"Haha!" Yi Xin laughed twice, "The two of them were originally good law-abiding citizens, right?" It's miserable. β
"It's okay." Xue Xiaolian's tone was still the same, and she asked casually, "How did your encounter go today?" β
Yi Xin's smile was put away, and he said depressedly: "I didn't encounter an encounter." β
"It's a shame." Xue Xiaolian's tone was not a pity at all.
Yi Xin wanted to say something, his eyes froze, "I saw him!" It's a ...... community."
"Happy home?"
"What's this vulgar name?" Yi Xin shuddered.
"Where Xiao Shuai rents." Xue Xiaolian replied, "I've arrived." β
Yi Xin was stunned.
"When I was at the police station, I looked at it by the way." Xue Xiaolian said with a smile.
Yi Xin stood on the roof of a residential building, looked around, and before long, he saw a figure on the road in the community.
She leapt down and landed lightly beside the figure.
"Let's go." Xue Xiaolian said hello and walked to the residential building where Xiao Shuai lived.
The security door downstairs did not stop Xue Xiaolian's footsteps.
Her raised finger turned into a slender plant stem, inserted into the keyhole. In a matter of seconds, the lock opened.
Yi Xin followed behind Xue Xiaolian leisurely, turning her head, looking east and west, and wrinkling her nose from time to time.
"There's something here." When Yi Xin entered the elevator, he covered his mouth and nose, "This smell is disgusting." β
"Something that the mourning bird attracted." Xue Xiaolian disagreed.
"Is it something that the mourning birds have brought in, or are they unconsciously looking for it?" Yi Xin raised the question of "chicken or egg".
Xue Xiaolian shook her head calmly, "I don't know." β
Yi Xin doesn't really want to do academic discussions, either.
After the elevator arrived, she followed Xue Xiaolian out.
The two of them passed by the door of 1103's room, glanced at the room, and continued to move forward, stopping outside the door of 1104.
There was a noise in the room, as if someone was arguing inside.
Xue Xiaolian and Yi Xin both heard the bird's call.
Yi Xin geared up and wanted to break in handsomely. Xue Xiaolian took the first step and used the method just now to directly open the door.
The sound in the room immediately stopped.
There were no lights on and the curtains were closed. But this couldn't hinder Xue Xiaolian and Yi Xin's sight.
The two did not hide their figures, nor did they hide their footsteps.
After entering the house, Yi Xin closed the door with his backhand.
The hallway lights were gone, and the room was plunged into darkness.
"Goo......
The bird's call is abrupt and clear, containing an emotion of anger and resentment. The gaze that fell on Xue Xiaolian and Yi Xin was also full of resentment.
"Where is he?" The man's hoarse voice rang out in the room, "Where is he!" β
The girl was startled and hurriedly stepped back.
Xue Xiaolian and Yi Xin were left with only a strange-looking man in front of them.
Yi Xin didn't answer, just looked around, curious and a little disgusted.
It's not a tidy house. The ground is full of bird feathers. There were one owl after another on those pieces of furniture, and they all stared at Xue Xiaolian and Yi Xin with big eyes.
Yi Xin doesn't have a good impression of this kind of bird, which looks like it and becomes an Internet celebrity animal from time to time. Their cooing made Yi Xin feel noisy.
"Hurry up. It smells so bad. Yi Xin urged.
The owl seemed to understand Yi Xin's words, and they all cried out as if they were complaining.
"It's not about you, it's about the next door. It's a shame that you can stay. Yi Xin covered his mouth and nose with one hand, and fanned the wind in front of him with the other, "What the hell is that!" It's not a youkai, is it? β
"Some kind of newborn evil. Humans always have amazing visions. Xue Xiaolian said with a smile.
"I'm asking you, where is he!" The man was furious, his wings spread out behind him, and his hands turned into the claws of a bird of prey, and he suddenly swung at the two of them.
Xue Xiaolian waved her hand, as if to drive away flies, dispersing the strong wind that tore feathers all over the ground, and lightly clasped the claws she caught.
"How could he have come to see you?" Xue Xiaolian sighed and looked at the man with pity.
"Why...... Why...... You two aren't even birds! Why do you guys! The man's eyes were red.
His mood seemed to affect the owls in the room, and the birds spread their wings and let out a terrible cry.
"That's why." Xue Xiaolian was unaffected, still sighing, "Why are you looking for him?" β
"What do you know......
"Is it because you were born a mourning bird?" Xue Xiaolian then said, not waiting for the man's answer, "Obviously, the times have changed. Most people don't believe that anymore. And you...... Your race has become a protected animal in this country. β
"Grade II protected animal." Yi Xin added on the side, because she was covering her mouth and nose, her voice sounded a little strange.
"Compared to those extinct species, the slain monsters...... You've been lucky. As soon as Xue Xiaolian flipped her hand, she heard a scream from the man and fell to her knees.
Xue Xiaolian looked down at the man and held his paws, "If you find him, he can't save you." You're going to get us in trouble. β
"Funeral bird...... It's going to attract a lot of weird things, right? Yi Xin muttered, squinting at the next door.
"I'm sorry. I sympathize with you, but you made the wrong choice. β
"You don't understand at all...... You don't understand ......," the man gritted his teeth.
"No, we get it. It was because I understood that I decided to do so. Xue Xiaolian said, lifting the man and choking his throat, "I just wanted to beat you up and drive you away." But if you've become obsessed with becoming a demon, and even killed someone for it, then there's no way. β
There was only a soft sound, and the man's resentful voice came to an end.
Xue Xiaolian withdrew her hand, and the bird claw she was holding did not change back, but the man's body, after shaking it lightly twice, turned into an owl.
The birds in the room changed their calls, cooed like mourning, and at once flew all towards the windows, raised their curtains, and flew into the night sky.
The shivering girl hiding in the corner was suddenly stunned, looked at the two figures outside the curtain, and squeezed out a scream: "I didn't kill anyone!" I didn't kill anyone! It's him! It's because of this mourning bird! I didn't kill anyoneβ"
