The official immediately stopped his hand and said respectfully, "Lord Xia." ”

Ye Caitang stood firm and raised his head, only to see that this person was dressed differently from the official servant, tall and majestic, talented, young and extraordinary. The official shouted Lord Xia so respectfully, which shows that his status is not low.

Xia Yue looked at Ye Caitang: "You are the family of the victim Lin Ling?" ”

"Yes." Ye Caitang immediately said: "I am her sister." ”

Although she is a half-brother, she is like a sister, and most importantly, Mother Lin is now in a state of collapse and has no intention of dealing with anything.

Xia Yue nodded: "I'm Xia Yue, the head catcher of the six doors, you come with me, I have a few words to ask you." ”

Ye Caitang appeased Mother Lin and went back to prepare for Lin Ling's funeral, and followed Xia Yue to a study.

There was no place for her to sit in the poor study, Xia Yue closed the door, and had no intention of pouring her a cup of tea, so she said directly: "I want to ask you, what is different about Lin Ling from ordinary people?" ”

Ye Caitang, who asked this, was confused: "What's the difference?" ”

Xia Yue said with a straight face: "What about you, you ask me?" ”

"Oh." Ye Caitang thought about it carefully: "No, it's quite normal, what exactly are you referring to, my lord?" ”

Xia Yue pondered for a moment and said, "For example, have you ever heard that she has encountered any strange incidents, such as bumping into ghosts and evil spirits?" ”

Ye Caitang sighed in his heart: "Lin Ling's death is related to sneakiness?" ”

Xia Yue's face sank: "You don't need to know too much, just say something." ”

Saying so is a tacit acquiescence, no wonder Lin Ling was sent to six doors.

Ye Caitang said bravely: "My lord, I was present when Lin Ling died, and it was indeed a little strange, but my lord asked so, is there anything hidden?" ”

Xia Yue's face sank.

Ye Caitang said again before Xia Yue got angry: "First, I understand that the case must be kept secret, no matter what the cause of death is, I will never say a word to the outside world until the government investigates clearly." ”

"Second, if I know the cause and effect, I will have a clear direction, and it will be easier to remember the abnormal situation."

Xia Yue has seen many family members of the victims, but most of them are so frightened that they can't even speak when they enter the six doors, and there has never been a person like Ye Caitang who can still break with him first and second in a clear manner.

The point is that what she is talking about is still very reasonable, especially the second point, which is like this.

Xia Yue said slowly: "The deceased Lin Ling was hanged by a ghost. ”

Although Ye Caitang had already been mentally prepared, all kinds of conjectures, he was still stunned for a moment, and then asked: "How is it possible?" ”

Xia Yue asked rhetorically: "Since you are at the scene, didn't you see it with your own eyes?" ”

"Nope." Ye Caitang said categorically: "Impossible, although I don't understand it either, I don't believe in ghosts killing people." ”

This time, Xia Yue didn't say anything, but said: "You don't need to believe it or not, if I ask you something, you can just explain it truthfully." ”

Ye Caitang shook his head slowly: "No, everything is normal in Lin Ling." ”

Xia Yue just looked at Ye Caitang like this.

Ye Caitang had to think about it again and confirmed: "No, I don't have yin and yang eyes, I haven't seen ghosts, I haven't bumped into evil spirits, I haven't enshrined messy things at home, and I haven't learned witchcraft and evil spells. ”

She was a little speechless at this time, a yamen that claimed to be specialized in solving big cases, after the victim's death, she didn't go to investigate the case, and asked her if she had seen a ghost, if this was in their police station, this would definitely be complained about and reviewed.

"Okay, I got it." Xia Yue opened the door: "You can go." ”

"Wait, wait." Ye Caitang hurriedly said, "Lord Xia, can you let me take a look at the body of the deceased?" ”

"Nope."

Ye Caitang explained: "My father is a fool, and I understand it, not blindly." ”

Xia Yue obviously glanced at her in surprise, but still said, "No." ”

"My lord, let me take a look." Ye Caitang picked up the door frame: "Just take a look, I don't believe that she was killed by a ghost, where there are ghosts in the world, it must be people." ”

Then Ye Caitang was kicked out.

Ye Caitang went home and changed his clothes, sat in the room for a while, looked at the sky that had sunk, resolutely got up, and walked forward quickly.

She didn't believe in ghosts and gods, but it was strange.

The Meng family is a big family in the capital, the abandoned old mansion occupies a large area and was once glorious, and it was recently sold, and the buyer hired many people to do some general cleaning first.

Lin Ling has been working there for the past few days, and most of the other workers are from the village. She is also one of them.

The few people who cleaned up the lotus pond and corridor with Lin Ling were all from the same village, and they had never heard of any major contradictions.

And murder is a very private thing, because if you are caught, you have to lose your head, so there may be many victims of murder, and the murderer is often one person, but where there is one more person, there will be mutual suspicion.

Unless they have a very serious common interest, there are few cases of group crime.

If it is true that those five people want to kill Lin Ling for some reason, it is more feasible to create an incident of accidentally falling into the water and being killed, rather than this kind of ghost killing that will be more valued.

The case had just been released in the afternoon, and it was the time when all the evidence traces were the freshest and clearest, and she couldn't wait. Can't you pin all your hopes on the six doors, in case they can't find out, just come to a ghost to kill someone, and ask someone to do a magic service to close the case?

Looking at Xia Yue's attitude, vague and secretive, the most important thing in the capital is to maintain stability, what can't be done by the six doors?

But Lin Ling's body was in the six doors, and she knew that she had no way to get in, and the only place she could go to now was the scene of the crime.

May the heavy rain of the afternoon not wash away all traces.

Ye Caitang touched his purse, found a grocery store and bought a dagger to carry with him, bought a lantern, and carried a few candles.

She sighed, it's really inconvenient in this era, but there is no way.

And she's still poor, and there's no way to do it.

By the time I arrived at the Meng family's old house, it was already dark.

She pushed open the door and entered, and there was no one.

The hidden door made a long, tooth-aching creak and was pushed open a little.

In the messy and broken rubble, Ye Caitang walked in slowly with a lantern.

Enter the gate, pass through the second gate, pass through a small garden, walk through the promenade, and there is the lotus pond.

No one has lived for a long time, and no matter how beautiful the garden is, it has been barren, overgrown with weeds, hanging vines, and rockeries are still there, showing its teeth and claws in the dim moonlight and lantern candlelight, like a monster.

Ye Caitang was just about to turn the rockery, when suddenly the courtyard door opened again, and a burst of footsteps came from outside.

In the silence of the night, the sound is especially pronounced.

Ye Caitang was startled, hurriedly blew out the candle, and hid by the rockery.

The house is unguarded at night. The desertion is so desolate, there is nothing valuable, even if it is being cleaned up recently, the workers go out early and return late, and no one dares to come at night.

Who will it be? Could it be that the murderer came back to see the scene?
