After dawn, Han Jiangxue and Song Yu left Taipingzhai, and the two walked to the foot of Heifeng Mountain along the road up the mountain yesterday, and saw that the Mercedes-Benz was still parked in place, Han Jiangxue pressed the remote control and unlocked the door.

Let's say that Han Jiangxue drove out of Heifeng Mountain, turned into the highway into the city, passed through the Longquan service area, and the two got out of the car to eat a bowl of pork rice noodles, and then continued to hurry, and finally returned to the National Security Bureau compound at 8:30 in the morning.

After a night of tossing, neither of them looked energetic, no different from frosted eggplant.

Han Jiangxue pushed the door and walked into the office, only to see that the members of the 501 team were already sitting inside and busy with their own work.

Fuji Xiaoxiao was staring at the computer when she saw Han Jiangxue and Song Yu walking in, she raised her eyes and inadvertently found that Han Jiangxue had a large bruise-purple scar on the left side of her face, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Sister Xue'er, what's wrong with your face?" ”

When Shen Ye and Yin Lichuan heard this, they all looked up at Han Jiangxue.

"Was it hurt by that female ghost?"

Facing Shen Ye's speculation, Han Jiangxue shook her head and explained in a low voice: "When I was chasing Concubine Hua, I was attacked by the ghost baby she was ambushed in the cemetery, although I shot the ghost baby with the exorcism revolver, but the blood it spewed splashed on my face, and a blood hole burned at that time. After the battle, Song Yu used Master Lechuan's ointment to help me apply medicine to the wound, and after a night's time, the blood hole on my face was almost healed. ”

Fuji Xiaoxiao said with a distressed face: "This purple scar is so ugly, it simply lowers our Sister Xue'er's appearance!" ”

Shen Ye turned his head to look at Yin Lichuan, who was sitting behind, and asked eagerly, "Is there a way to erase the scars on Jiang Xue's face?" ”

Yin Lichuan nodded, and replied without thinking: "When I use the magic sword soaked in cinnabar, gently cut off that scar, and after a while, Jiang Xue's face will be restored to its original state." ”

At this time, Zhao Shengli, who was sitting under the wall of honor, cleared his throat: "Now let's have a meeting first, and the injury on Jiang Xue's face will be dealt with after the meeting is dismissed." ”

Han Jiangxue returned to her desk and sat down, she stretched out her finger and pointed to an empty table next to her, and whispered to Song Yu: "There is no one to sit at that desk, if you don't dislike it, just sit there for the time being." ”

Song Yu found that the desk in front of him was as clean as new, and when he sniffed it carefully, he could smell the smell of detergent, it seemed that although no one used it, the members of the office were still taking care of it carefully every day.

After Song Yu sat down, Zhao Shengli picked up a stack of documents on his desk and said in a heavy tone: "Last night, I received a call from Bai Wuchang, and the prefecture asked us to immediately stop the investigation of Concubine Hua's case. And at dawn today, the secretary of the Department of Rewarding Good and Punishing Evil came to the office and handed me the official document engraved with the Great Seal of Hades. ”

Zhao Shengli stood up and showed everyone the document from the underworld in his hand.

"The document represents the will of the high-level of the prefecture, and the content on it is written in a huge and complicated manner, which can be summed up in one sentence - let us transfer the case of Concubine Hua to the relevant departments of the prefecture, and we are not allowed to inquire into this case from now on. I don't know if you all understand? ”

As soon as Zhao Shengli's voice fell, Song Yu preemptively said loudly: "Jiang Xue and I worked desperately, and after a few rounds of wrestling with Concubine Hua, we were almost able to bring her to justice, why did you ask us to withdraw from the investigation at this juncture?" The underworld allowed Concubine Hua to do evil, but did not send ghosts to arrest her, and let Concubine Hua make waves in the sun and kill people's lives! ”

Han Jiangxue nodded, and said rather depressedly: "I agree with Song Yu's words, the underworld usually does nothing, and when we are about to solve the case, we suddenly come out to grab the merit, is there any reason for this?" ”

Zhao Shengli raised his hand to signal the two of them to calm down, and then said: "I can understand your feelings, after all, Jiang Xue and Song Yu, as investigators who are deeply involved in this case, have put a lot of energy. I see all the efforts you have made for this case. It's been hard work these days! ”

Han Jiangxue asked a little unwillingly: "Team leader, is this the case of Concubine Hua just settled?" ”

Song Yu looked at Zhao Shengli directly, expecting his reply.

Of course, Concubine Hua's case will not end like this, and the prefecture government claims that they have organized relevant departments to collect evidence of Concubine Hua's crimes in the Yang world, and will soon carry out a trial of Concubine Hua's case in the Yama Palace. According to the laws of the underworld, Concubine Hua is afraid that she will end up in the Infernal Hell and will never be able to live forever. ”

After listening to Zhao Shengli's answer, Song Yu felt that this way of dealing with it was not bad, indicating that the underworld was still performing its duties seriously.

However, Han Jiangxue doesn't see it that way, she has been in the 501 team for two years, and she has also dealt with a lot of ghosts in the underworld, and she is very familiar with the efficiency of the underworld.

"Team leader, with all due respect, the underworld should not really judge Concubine Hua, at best, it is just a formality to fool people who don't know. I know their style of acting too well, especially those high-ranking officials of the prefecture, who always have the idea that more is better than less, and get by, but they are in high positions but do not take the initiative to act, and some bureaucrats in the Yang world are simply more than that. ”

Han Jiangxue complained about the bureaucratic phenomenon in the underworld without concealment, which made Song Yu listen to it and admire it, and couldn't help but secretly praise: "This girl is really bold, isn't she afraid that when she sleeps at night, the ghost will come to her door to find her trouble?" ”

Zhao Shengli didn't blame Han Jiangxue's rudeness, pretended not to hear it, and continued: "Since the prefecture has already spoken, then we can only do it, within today, please be sure to complete the writing of the materials for Concubine Hua's case, and report it to Fuji Xiaoxiao after writing, and she will sort it out and summarize it and then hand it over to me for verification." ”

After that, Zhao Shengli then added: "Don't keep the written materials, find a time to throw them in the brazier and burn them." As for the electronic version of the materials, after I have checked and confirmed that there are no problems, I will forward them to the prefecture. ”

Song Yu came to Han Jiangxue's side and whispered curiously: "Listening to the meaning of the team leader, could it be that there are computers in the underworld?" ”

Han Jiangxue couldn't help but say: "Don't you know, in order to connect with the Yang, the prefecture has fully implemented digital office several years ago, and now the trial of Lord Yan is similar to that of the Yangjian, and the trial procedure is basically copied from the Yangjian court." ”

When Song Yu heard this, he felt inexplicably funny, but he didn't expect that the underworld would also keep pace with the times and open the information age.

"Okay, that's all for the Concubine Hua case, please remember that you are not allowed to ask about this matter again in the future. Next, let's talk about the old topic, about the '5.01 village extermination case', what progress has everyone made in the recent period? ”

After Zhao Shengli finished speaking, there was a deathly silence in the office.

"Isn't there any clue?"

Zhao Shengli glanced up at the calendar hanging on the wall, it was already mid-July, and there were only four months left before the deadline set by the superiors to solve the case.

At this moment, Song Yu suddenly spoke: "Team leader, I am a little puzzled about the village extermination case. ”

Zhao Shengli's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said to him: "Xiao Song, if you have any ideas, it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

"I've read the files of the village extermination case, and there is one place that I really don't understand, Anning Village is a very big village, how did the murderer slaughter 120 people in the whole village overnight, leaving no one alive?"

Shen Ye replied disdainfully, "Hmph, I thought you had some unusual opinions. As early as 30 years ago, when the police launched an investigation, the question you mentioned was raised, and to this day there is no reasonable explanation. ”

Zhao Shengli tapped his fingers on the desk, looked at the file of the "5.01 Village Annihilation Case" on the table, and said in a deep voice: "There is a very important reason why this case will become an unsolved case, that is, the identity of the murderer. During the initial investigation, the police suspected that a multi-person gang was responsible, and this assumption was documented in the first version of the case report. However, with subsequent investigations, the police overturned this assumption. If there is more than one murderer involved in the massacre, no matter how careful they are, there will always be more or less clues left at the scene, but the police almost dug into the ground and repeatedly investigated the crime scene, but they failed to find any clues related to the murderer behind the scenes. ”

"Then this is an evil door, and it won't be a case made by a ghost......

Before Song Yu's words fell, Zhao Shengli slapped the table coldly: "Xiao Song's conjecture may be the closest to the truth, in fact, after the police investigated in many ways without results, some high-ranking officials within the police station did think about this possibility, but at that time, the supernatural and supernatural elements involved in the homicide case were not yet acceptable to people." Out of prudence, the police finally decided to put the case on hold for the time being, and it was not until May 1 this year that the Longquan City Public Security Bureau handed over the case to us under the leadership of the provincial department and various ministries and commissions. ”

Fuji Xiaoxiao glanced at the meeting notes on the table, and asked with some confusion: "Team leader, if it is a ghost who kills someone in the yang world, there should be a corresponding record on the underworld." Besides, how could the ghosts of the underworld allow the demons to slaughter so many people? ”

Han Jiangxue added with a needle: "As Xiaoxiao said just now, the 120 villagers who were killed will report to the prefecture after death, and there will definitely be corresponding records in the book of life and death." After so many years of the incident, doesn't anyone want to go to the underworld to check the book of life and death? ”

Speaking of this, Yin Lichuan couldn't sit still, he looked at Han Jiangxue, and said seriously: "When Poor Dao hadn't joined the 501 team, a high-level police officer once asked me to go on a trip to the underworld to check the book of life and death. Later, I did check, but I didn't find anything. ”

"It can't be!"

Yin Lichuan looked at Han Jiangxue's stunned expression, and said something earth-shattering: "There is no information about these 120 villagers in the book of life and death, they seem to have broken away from the Three Realms and Five Elements, and the entire underworld can't find any trace of them. ”

"There is no record in the life and death books of the underworld, and this is really completely out of line."

Shen Ye spread his hands helplessly, and couldn't help but think to himself in his heart: "This case is simply too torturous, and the superiors are still urging it, there are only four months left, and there are so few clues at hand, what can I do to solve the case?" ”

After discussing for a long time, there was no reason for the discussion, Zhao Shengli saw that it was almost time to eat, so he had to let everyone dismiss the meeting first.

"Jiang Xue and Song Yu don't leave first, I have something to say to you."

Soon only Zhao Shengli, Han Jiangxue and Song Yu were left in the office, and after confirming that the door of the office was closed, Zhao Shengli said mysteriously: "You two listen well, I will only say the next words once, after leaving this door, you are not allowed to tell others, if there is a violation, please submit your resignation yourself." ”

Han Jiangxue and Song Yu looked at each other, and the two replied in unison: "We understand!" ”

Zhao Shengli sat back at his desk and looked at the two of them secretly: "Concubine Hua's case will be closed from now on, and I can't explain the reasons behind it." I'm just going to briefly mention it here, and I'm listening, the following remarks are pure hearsay, and believe it or not is your business......"

According to Zhao Shengli, Concubine Hua belonged to a mysterious Inhuman organization, which was powerful and powerful throughout the Yin and Yang worlds, and many high-ranking officials in the underworld had interests in collusion with this organization, and even many ghosts were members of the organization.

"The members of this Inhuman organization not only include Inhumans who are proficient in strange arts, but also recruit many evil spirits like Concubine Hua. Sorry, it's far away, let's talk about the Hua Fei case, according to insiders in the prefecture, more than 300 years ago, after the Hua Fei Tomb was rebuilt by the government, Zhao Bao, who was the county magistrate of Longquan County at the time, spent a lot of money to invite the Taoist priest of the Heavenly Master Mansion of Longhu Mountain. Lao Dao's idea was good, but as time went by, the seal of the formation gradually loosened, until a week ago, a folk Mr. Yin and Yang named Chen Banxian in Taiping Village of Heifeng Mountain instructed several villagers in the same village to dig graves, which completely destroyed the formation that sealed Concubine Hua. I don't need to say more about what happened later, judging from the causes and consequences, Chen Banxian knew how terrible the consequences of stealing and excavating Concubine Hua's grave would be, but he still took practical action, in other words, that guy did it on purpose!

No, to be precise, from Concubine Hua's reappearance in the world to the murder of the villagers, these things were actually premeditated, and the initiator of all this was Chen Banxian! ”

Hearing this, Han Jiangxue couldn't help but suddenly realize: "I see, Chen Banxian is really the mastermind behind Concubine Hua's case!" ”

"That means that if it weren't for Chen Banxian's secret layout, Concubine Hua wouldn't have come out to harm people."

Zhao Shengli replied noncommittally: "Who knows? After all, Concubine Hua is a powerful ghost who has been sleeping for more than three centuries, who dares to guarantee that releasing her will not be a disaster? ”

Han Jiangxue thought of what Bai Wuchang had said to her at the door of Chen Banxian's house last night, and the doubts in her heart became deeper.

"The Seventh Master said that Chen Banxian had jumped off the cliff and died half a year before Concubine Hua's case, and his body is still in the swamp under the Broken Head Ridge of Heifeng Mountain. The Chen Banxian we saw in Taipingzhai was made up of Concubine Hua's accomplice, who had very superb disguise skills, and even deceived Chen Banxian's son Chen Liang. ”

Zhao Shengli nodded thoughtfully and said: "This mysterious person who is disguised as Chen Banxian is the key to solving Concubine Hua's case, but it's a pity that the underworld won't let us continue to investigate......

Han Jiangxue and Song Yu seemed to understand the meaning of Zhao Shengli's words: If you can't check it on the surface, then we will check it secretly behind our backs.

"Alright, that's all I have to say, go and eat!"

Han Jiangxue and Song Yu said goodbye to Zhao Shengli and were about to leave the office.

At this moment, Zhao Shengli stopped them again and solemnly admonished: "This mysterious person who is proficient in disguise may have something to do with the Inhuman organization I just mentioned. If my hunch is correct, maybe even the '5.01 Village Extermination Case' is inextricably linked to the organization. ”

Han Jiangxue stood by the door, looked at Zhao Shengli with bright eyes, and responded in a low voice: "Please rest assured, Song Yu and I will definitely find out these things!" ”
