The deceased's name was Yang Jiande, 34 years old.

He is a small foreman in the mining team of Helong Mine, and there are about a dozen people under him, and he can barely be regarded as having a small status in the mining team.

Five days ago, on the night of July 2, he died mysteriously at home.

The whole body was burned into a carbon form, and it is suspected that he was burned to death.

But the most important thing is that there is not the slightest trace of burns in his home, not even on the ground where the man fell when he died.

According to the description of Yang Jiande's wife.

She went out for a walk after dinner, and when she came back, she found that her husband had become like that, and she was panicked for a while, but the neighbor next to her helped call the police station.

Li Changan once again swept the B32 document from beginning to end.

If nothing else, this is definitely caused by the power of the spirit beast.

Whoosh –

Listening to the movement coming from the forest, as well as the swift figures of Xiao Fan and Xiao Dou Ding in a flash, Li Changan couldn't help but smile.

Keep looking down at the file.

"The case that happened five days ago, if I were a suspect, I would have fled a long time ago, which is probably the reason why there was no follow-up, and the matter could be suppressed so easily."

There are no obvious clues, and so many days have passed since the case.

"No wonder Ran Swordfish said that he was not in a hurry, he could come slowly. If I'm right......"

From the moment he entered the Security Bureau, it was a test for him by Ran Swordfish.

The test is whether you really have the ability to be a member of the action group.

If.

If he is unable to respond to the situation in the Security Service and does not have the initiative, then he is not able to assume the responsibilities of the operation team.

"So Ran Swordfish allowed me to learn more about the history in the library of the Tranquility Society. This is to allow me to work in the Quiet Society as a researcher specializing in history when I will not be able to pass this test. ”

Meantime.

"It's no wonder that the fat man who was originally in charge of the case didn't seem to pay much attention to the case, and asked Cao Xinsheng."

In other words, the test for him is actually over.

The investigation of the case is not so important.

After understanding the deep meaning, Li Changan reluctantly threw the document aside and stretched for a long time.

I don't know how he behaved in the Public Security Bureau yesterday, Ran Jianyu already knows.

It shouldn't have disappointed her, and it didn't embarrass Tranquility, right?

Some reluctantly tugged at the corners of his mouth.

"I'll just say that it's not logical to let me be a 'Hinata' who has just joined and has just become a spirit master to investigate the murder."

Lying on the grass and looking up at the glow of the sun, the golden light penetrated the dense forest leaves, leaving golden spots.

"The human heart is so complicated."

I couldn't help but sigh.

It wasn't until the light of the dawn moved and a golden speck fell on his slowly closed eyes that Li Changan sat up suddenly.

"Nope. In any case, even if I guessed Ran Swordfish's intentions, the investigation that should be carried out should still be carried out. ”

After all, a human life is at stake.

And, what if the murderer didn't leave Ningyuan County?

Most importantly.

The case involved a spirit beast with the attribute of "instigation", and in case there was a connection with the black-robed person who instigated him that day, even if it was just in case, he had to learn as much as he could.

It's also a matter of his life.

Li Changan, who sat up, patted his cheek, picked up the document again, and read it carefully.

...

...

"Auntie, I'll go out."

He trained until nine o'clock, and then Li Changan took the two little ones back for breakfast.

Four hours of training in the morning is about the same, and the rest of the training content is handed over to the evening.

Training, but also pay attention to the combination of work and rest.

"Do you want to eat lunch?" Aunt Zhao Lijuan walked out of the kitchen.

"It's hard to say." Li Changan shook his head.

"Then you wait a minute."

With that, she walked briskly back to the kitchen.

When he came out again, he took a lunch box in his hand and stuffed it into Li Changan's hand.

"Inside is the tofu left over from yesterday by your uncle, I fried the meat, you take it, if you are hungry, eat some." Zhao Lijuan said.

Li Changan looked down at the iron box in his hand.

"Tofu clips?"

When I was a child, the conditions at home were not good.

He and Lu Chan went to school, and one such lunch box per person.

It was filled with tofu sandwiches for lunch.

At that time, it was not even meat that was sandwiched in it, but some vegetables grown at home.

He and Lu Chan have complained more than once before, and their farts smell like tofu.

But now seeing this lunch box and the tofu clip in it, Li Changan is inexplicably a little nostalgic.

Zhao Lijuan rubbed her pants a little overwhelmed, she also knew that Li Changan and Lu Chan didn't like to eat this, so she cramped: "Chang'an, ...... at home"

"I've been thinking about this for a long time!"

Li Changan directly interrupted Zhao Lijuan's words.

Grinning and opening the lunch box, the aroma of cooked tofu comes to your face.

I don't know why, smelling this smell, Li Changan's nose was a little sour.

The more I grew up, the more I realized that it was not easy for my uncle and aunt to be.

He quickly adjusted his state and gave Zhao Lijuan a thumbs up.

"It's still delicious made by my aunt."

After saying that, he ran directly towards the door.

If you don't leave, you can't hold back.

Looking at the back of Li Changan's departure, Zhao Lijuan was stunned, then laughed and twisted the corners of her eyes.

"This little bunny."

As soon as he went out, Xiao Fan and Xiao Douding appeared and climbed on top of him in three or two steps.

That posture was like running away from the scene after doing something bad.

"What are you two doing?" Li Changan asked suspiciously.

It's just that Xiao Fan and Xiao Douding didn't answer his question.

And quickly pull away from the topic.

I saw it twitch its nose and its eyes lit up.

"Meow? Meow! (There's something delicious!) ）

Delicious?

Xiao Douding directly regarded Li Changan as a tree, climbing up and down the ground to look for it.

"You two are dogs, aren't you? Is the nose so smart? ”

In this regard, Li Changan seemed extremely helpless.

But I didn't continue to ask.

...

...

Ningyuan County is not a very developed county, but in fact, the economic conditions are quite good.

Just because in the surrounding area of Ningyuan County, many mining areas of all sizes have been discovered.

The Helong Mine is one of the larger ones.

Boom Boom –

A huge truck with a load of more than 100 tons slowly drove in front of Li Changan.

A mountain bag that didn't look very tall, but there was a huge hole leading to the depths of the ground, I don't know how many meters, was presented in front of his eyes.

Stand here.

He felt like the whole world was getting a little gray.

The dust in the air does not disperse for a long time.

In this regard, the workers working in the mine seem to have long been accustomed to it, and they are just busy with their heads.

Trucks carrying ore, tracks transporting ore, minecarts carrying ore, and excavators throwing away the surrounding impact.

At the same time, Li Changan also noticed.

In addition to the busy workers, there are also some spirit beasts in the middle.

"Squeak?"

Standing on Li Changan's shoulder, Xiao Douding, who stood up, looked into the distance, and excitedly stretched out his hand to call.

Saw.

Not far away, a man in a white hat who looked like a foreman carried an iron cage in his hand, and inside the iron cage, another psychic rat was kept.

It's just that compared to Xiaodouding, the psychic mouse in the cage has a haggard face and a thin body, and it doesn't seem to be in a very good state.

This is one of the reasons why psychic rats are known as "treasure hunt rats".

Their ability to explore spirituality can go a long way in helping mines find precious ores better and faster.

Of course.

Not only psychic mice, but also the mine has its own professional exploration equipment.

Li Changan silently took Xiaodouding into his arms and gently rubbed it twice.

Didn't speak.

Put away the two little ones and walk towards the entrance of the mine.

But before he could actually enter the mine, a middle-aged man dressed in a mine staff costume and wearing a yellow hard hat stopped him.

"What for?"

The doorman looked up and down at the young man he had never seen before, and his voice was a little rude.

Li Changan was not surprised by this, but took out a box of brand-new cigarettes from his pocket with a smile, took out one and handed it over.

This was given to him by Uncle Lu Yongguo last night.

Although Lu Yongguo is honest and doesn't talk much, after all, he has been selling tofu for so many years, and some people still understand the world.

Sometimes.

A cigarette is handed over to you more than talking.

Really.

Seeing the cigarette handed over, the middle-aged man's expression immediately softened a lot.

"Big brother, are we here at the Helong Mine?" Li Changan asked next.

"yes."

The middle-aged man looked at the brand of cigarettes, which was not bad.

Satisfied, he took out a lighter and lit it, took a sip, and responded.

"What kind of mine are we?"

"Oh, Inkmine." The middle-aged man waved his hand to disperse the smoke and dust raised.

Ink ore is one of the abundant ores in Ningyuan County.

It can also be regarded as one of the spiritual ores, and the spiritual food, potions, and even some special spirit beast training equipment and props of many eared spirit beasts will be mixed with some grinding powder.

"This ore is good, isn't it? I see so many big trucks transporting. Li Changan asked with a smile again.

As he spoke, he felt movement inside his trench coat.

Hold down the two little ones in one hand.

I put the cigarette from the inside pocket of my clothes to the outside pocket.

"Meow~~"

"Squeak~~"

The faint voices of Xiao Fan and Xiao Douding came from inside.

Give them a knock on the head.

Little thing, what are you curious about such things as cigarettes?

Cherish life, stay away from cigarettes, do you understand?

"What sound?" The middle-aged man looks left and right.

"There's no sound." Li Changan said expressionlessly.

"Oh." The middle-aged man exhaled a puff of white smoke and smiled again, continuing the topic just now.

"Yes, it's not bad, there are thousands of tons of raw ore produced every day."

The so-called raw ore actually refers to the ore mixed with magazines, which needs to go through several extremely complex processes to obtain pure ink ore.

"That's amazing." Li Changan gave a thumbs up.

"Who's the boy?"

After a few words, the conversation opened.

"I'm a local."

"Locals? Hello locals......"

"yes. My uncle is Lu Yongguo, and he lives in the East District. ”

"Lu Yongguo?! Lao Lu? The one that sells tofu? ”

"Big brother, do you know?"

“...”

After coming and going, Li Changan learned a lot of information from his mouth.

Some are useless and irrelevant to the case.

And there are some that are more interesting.

"Ugh." The middle-aged man sighed, "Lao Yang is actually not bad, he often gives cigarettes to his brothers, and sometimes invites everyone to eat and drink." You said that his family conditions are actually not bad, and he earns a lot, so why do you do that......"

As he spoke, the middle-aged man suddenly realized that he seemed to have said something he shouldn't have said, his face suddenly changed, and he closed his mouth.

Li Changan narrowed his eyes.

I made a lot of money, but what did I do?

He seems to know some secrets.

However, Li Changan did not follow the question, but asked:

"Old Yang is good?"

Hearing that Li Changan did not go deep into this topic, the middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief.

Immediately, I saw the middle-aged man smile a little obscenely, and said in a low voice:

"It's just that people are more ..... Ahem, you know, man. In fact, Lao Yang's daughter-in-law is very beautiful and virtuous, and Lao Yang doesn't know how to cherish it. Well, some men just love wildflowers, right? ”

The middle-aged man also raised his eyebrows at Li Changan.

Hearing this, Li Changan showed a sudden look.

Man.

I know everything.

He handed over a cigarette again.

"What, big brother, can I go in and have a look?" Li Changan suddenly asked.

Hearing this, the middle-aged man's expression suddenly changed.

Shaking his hand again and again, "That's not going to work, that's not going to work." Although we talked very well with each other, the work is work, and outsiders are not allowed to enter the mine. ”

It seems that although he is very talkative, he still has a good working principle.

Li Changan glanced at the mining area.

If you don't go in, you won't be able to understand a lot of things.

Especially this doorman said something that he didn't dare to say halfway through.

How do I get in?

Just when Li Changan felt troubled.

"Li Changan—"

Suddenly, a girl's voice came from afar.

Follow the prestige.

"Gu Li?"
