MTL - Card Room-Chapter 493

Chapter 493

Xiao Lou picked up the letter and looked at it carefully. The brush on the letter was flying swiftly. Xiao Lou's father collected a brush calligraphy work from his predecessors. The handwriting Xiao Lou could recognize at a glance. What's more, the mark of the spider dagger on the roof cantilever is also Chu Huaying's unique symbol, and no one can forge it.

Therefore, this letter must have been left by Brother Nine.

Xiao Lou looked at his teammates and said firmly, "This letter belongs to the handwriting of his predecessors."

Looking at the first line of the letter, Yu Hanjiang frowned and said, "They actually went to the world three years ago? That is to say, we are in different time and space now, and all of these cards, such as psychic and team voice, can't be used?"

Xiao Loudao "Well, starting today, we can't talk directly with them three years ago. Fortunately, they thought to leave us a clue in this way."

People cannot talk to their past self, but they can leave advice to their future self.

The practice of Lu Jiuchuan and the four people was indeed very wise. Guess that Xiao Lou might return to the Zhao family to investigate the clue of the person who arranged the Lingtang, so they secretly concealed a letter with Chu Huaying ’s spider mark on the roof of the Lingtang. .

Fortunately, no one has discovered this letter in the past three years, and now it has been successfully found by Xiao Lou.

Yu Hanjiang read the contents of the letter and thought about it, "Nine Brothers, they seem to have just gone through the night of the incident three years ago, and saw the plot that we couldn't verify-first, Zhao Zesui, the elder sister married the night She went to a private meeting with a masked man outside the town, and gave the other person a purse embroidered with mandarin ducks. "

He looked back to Xiao Lou. "Remember that you saw the unfinished handkerchief in Miss Zhao's room. Guess she had a sweetheart. It seems to be right. But her sweetheart has a special status. She has to wear a mask at midnight. , Are you afraid of being discovered by the people in the town? "

"Well. Wearing a mask in the middle of the night, this person's identity is definitely not simple." Xiao Lou paused and continued to look down at the letter. "The letter said, Chen Yu panicked and ran out of the town to burn paper for his father. This was the death of his father. It's not a secret. Why doesn't he just set up a mourning hall at home, but instead sneaks to burn paper outside the town? "

"We have a custom in our hometown." Lao Mo heard this and interjected, "If the parents died in a foreign country and the grave is not nearby, we will go to the entrance of the community or near the street on July 15th, facing the hometown. Burn some paper money in the direction. My father's hometown is in Beijing, and I am in Jiangzhou. Sometimes I can't go back to sweep the grave.

"It's also in our house. It's the festival every year. If you can't go back to your hometown and go to the grave, you will worship the ancestors in the direction of your hometown." Qu Wanyue also said.

"In this way, Chen Yu's father was not buried in Qingfeng Town? So after his son was born, he was outside the town, far away in the direction of his hometown to burn paper money for his father to rejoice?" After listening to the two, Xiao Lou thought This argument is also reasonable.

"How did Chen Yu's father die and where did he die, we have to check it again." Yu Hanjiang said.

The movements of Zhao Zesui and Chen Yu seen in the ghost town at night have now been explained.

Nine brothers, the clues they saw on the day of the incident three years ago will never be fake, but what these two clues mean is still to be investigated by them.

Next, some clues are listed in the letter.

The first is about the mayor Qin Feng's roster and secret rooms.

After seeing it, Qu Wanyue could n’t help but say, “Qin Feng is really not like a murderer. In his letter, his predecessor said in the letter that three years ago, there was no secret room in his study and no roster full of red forks in the cabinet. We found these three years later ... Explaining that Qin Feng should be like us, investigating the murderer, collecting evidence, and recording the list of the dead? "

Xiao Lou nodded. "Yes. I felt that Qin Feng was not like a murderer from the beginning. The clues were obviously too simple, and the rattles that appeared in the Zhao and Chen families were all painted with tigers, but there were ten in his secret room. The rattles of the Chinese zodiac do n’t match this point. However, he must know something and he does n’t cooperate with us very much. "

Yu Hanjiang said, "This person cannot directly ask, we need to investigate through other means."

Xiao Lou nodded and picked up the letter and said, “The night of the incident, he said that he saw people in white clothes, including vegetable dealer Liu Uncle, Orion Zhang Chengyu, Xue Ersao who sells tofu, butcher Lin Yueran, and clothing store owner Qin Ruolan. The details of these people are listed. Do you suspect that there are suspicious characters? "

Yu Hanjiang took a closer look at the letter from his hand and whispered, "From the position marked on the letter, five people live in the east, west, south, north, and middle positions of the town, although Qingfeng Town does not Big, but Li Gui will not appear in five places at the same time. Among them, it is likely that someone is lying deliberately and confusing the audience. "

Everyone was silent for a moment, and Xiao Lou folded the letter carefully and put it in his pocket.

Suddenly Liu Qiao said, "Nine Brothers, they left all the clues of the Li Gui hooking case three years ago, but what about the recent" Girl Shenhu Case "? Those girls who were drowned at the bottom of the lake, who are the murderers, we Not at all clueless. "

Xiao Lou also had a headache. This time the two cases went hand in hand, and the murderer was particularly cunning.

It can be said that "Killer B" used the public opinion of "Ghost Destroyer" made by "Killer A" to drag these girls into the lake, making people think that the missing girl was also killed by Li Gui.

The "killer armor" found that he had no hands, and inexplicably disappeared. He must know that the other murderer is using public opinion to commit crimes, but let the other party ignore it. It is also to use the other party in turn to make the case more complicated and impossible to investigate.

They may not have met each other, but they have a tacit understanding of covering each other.

Yu Hanjiang said, "Let's separate the case first. The two murderers have different motives, styles, and victims of choice. The first murderer of the" Ghost Suicide Case "should be related to the famine 20 years ago. The method of killing people is extremely brutal; the second murderer is only hostile to girls around 18 years old, drowning them in the lake should be a paranoid personality, and can't get out of the psychological shadow left by the girl in red. "

Xiao Lou pressed the temple with a headache. "Check the first one, at least the clue of the first case is clear."

After several people sneaked out of the Zhao family, they split their heads to find the suspect mentioned in the letter to inquire about the news.

Liu Qiao and Lao Mo are in charge of this line of Chen Yu.

The two visited the neighborhood neighbors near Chen's house and soon heard about Chen Yu's father from some old population. Liu Qiao held the headset and whispered, "Professor Xiao, we inquired that Chen's family would do it in the field for twenty years. In business, Chen Yu and his wife moved back to Qingfeng Town seven years ago. His father did not come back together. It is said that he passed away in the field earlier. "

Xiao Loudao "Did you know where they went to do business?"

Liu Qiao said, "I do n’t know. The Chen family has always been mysterious. After moving back to his ancestral home in Qingfeng Town, Chen Yu rarely communicates with people. When he sees people, he would just say hello. The neighbors only know that his family is rich. , Very particular about food and clothing. "

In this way, Chen Yu's father should be buried in a foreign country, so Chen Yu would run outside the town to burn paper money for his father. Obviously, he seems to be a filial son, but his family does not worship the spirit of his father. This thing always feels wrong ... ... unless requested by his father.

A moment later, Long Sen and Qu Wanyue, who went to the East City to investigate, also came back. Qu Wanyue said, "The old Liu man in the East City is over 80 years old, and he died three years ago. According to the reaction of the nearby children, The old man loves to tell stories, and always pulls the children to scare everyone with the "white ghost", saying that he saw a ghost in the rain three years ago. "

Xiao Lou asked, "Is there a more detailed version?"

Longsen said, "Wanyue tricked a child over with a candied gourd. The child repeated the story of Mr. Liu originally. On July 14th, under a heavy rain, he was awakened by a thunderstorm in the middle of the night, thinking of going At night, as soon as the door was pushed open, I saw a ghost in white clothes flying lightly in front of the door. He was almost scared to urinate his pants. "

The ancients did not have the habit of wearing watches. Of course, they did not know the specific time when they saw the female ghost.

The rainstorm night three years ago should be the same as the scene where Xiao Lou went to the ghost town on their first day.

It was a reproduction of the scene, and they also saw the picture of Miss Zhao's marriage.

Xiao Lou clearly remembered that Yin Shi (about three o'clock in the morning) stopped the rain. After the rain stopped, Miss Zhao's family got married and there was only one clear thunder in the sky.

Uncle Liu has passed away and is certainly not a murderer or an accomplice. As an eyewitness, his description may contain exaggerated ingredients, but the message of “waking up by thunder” should be the focus of special attention.

Following this, Long Sen and Qu Wanyue visited Xue Ersao, who lived in the southeast of the town and was the closest to Mr. Liu.

It did n’t take long for Qu Wanyue to report the investigation results. “Xue Ersao remarried to Yuezhou as early as two years ago. However, according to nearby neighbors, she was also awakened by thunder and remembered that her bedding in the yard was not received. , Ran to collect the bedding, and as a result saw a long-haired white ghost floating across the wall, and also drifted towards the direction of the Zhao family, scaring her to hurry back to the house. "

Xiao Lou opened the map left by Lao Mo.

From the geographical point of view, Uncle Liu lives in the east of the town, and Xue Ersao lives in the southeast of the town. Both of them were awakened by thunder and saw the female ghost. The time was very close. Perhaps the female ghost was just when the thunder sounded. Activities in the southeast of the town.

Liu Qiao and Lao Mo went to Qin Ruolan, the proprietress in the central clothing store.

Liu Qiao stuffed her with silver coins and asked her if she knew Li Gui's rumors. She secretly came together and said, "There are ghosts in our town. On the rainy night three years ago, I couldn't sleep because of a headache. I heard When the rain stopped, I got up and wanted to go to the store to sort out the new fabric. As soon as I went out, I saw a female ghost dressed in white and covering her hair, drifting past the alley in front of my house. Go back to the house! "

Liu Qiao asked, "Did you hear thunder when you saw the female ghost?"

The lady boss thought for a moment and shook her head. "No. The rain stopped for a long time before I went out to see the female ghost."

There are two people left, one is Lin Yueran, a butcher living in the north of the city, and the other is Zhang Chengyu, the hunter in the west of the city.

Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang went to investigate in person.

Lin Yueran was not as strong as a normal butcher. When he didn't hold a butcher knife in his hand, he looked pretty gentle, but Yu Hanjiang could see that he had great strength and the muscles on his arm were very strong.

Yu Hanjiang bluntly asked, "This big brother, I heard that you saw the female ghost three years ago? My wife likes to listen to these strange and strange stories, can you tell us."

Lin Yueran looked at Xiao Lou with a puzzled face. Xiao Lou smiled and put a coin in him. He said, "I and my husband are traveling around the mountains and waters. I just want to hear some ghost stories and solve the boredom."

Lin Yueran had a complex look. "I have told this story many times. Three years ago, on the night of the heavy rain, my son cried to pee in the middle of the night. When I saw the rain stopped, I took him out for a small solution and just went out. A female ghost in white passed lightly in front of us. I was taken aback and quickly took my son home. I thought I was dazzled. As a result, my son also saw the female ghost, which is definitely not dazzled! "

Xiao Lou asked, "The night you saw the female ghost, was it a rainy night?"

Lin Yueran nodded, "Yeah."

Xiao Lou asked, "Is there a thunderbolt at that time? Isn't it that the sky will fall when Xie Zuo appears?"

Lin Yueran froze for a while, "It seems there was ..." paused, and said firmly, "I really heard thunder."

To prove his claim, he also called out his son.

The child is less than 10 years old, and his voice is clear and clear, "My father is right, we all saw the female ghost. When the female ghost appeared, there was still thunder in the sky!"

Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang thanked each other and got up and left. Finally, Cheng Chengyu, the hunter in the west of the city, investigated that Zhang Chengyu was not at home. He should have gone out to hunt, but there were a few children playing stone nearby.

Xiao Lou coaxed a child over and asked, "Do you know this Orion named Zhang?"

The child got the candy and honestly said, "Know. Uncle Zhang went hunting in the morning and said he would hit some hares to roast rabbit meat for us."

Xiao Loudao "Did he tell you the story of Li Gui?"

The child said nervously, "Li Gui is asking for life, but it's scary! He said he saw the ghost with his own eyes, so let's not go out at night or he will be taken away by Li Gui."

Yu Hanjiang asked in a low voice, "How did he tell you?"

The child scratched his head and said, "On a rainy night three years ago, he was awakened by thunder in the middle of the night, and when he got up, he saw a white ghost flying from outside the courtyard. He slipped and sprained his foot. The next day, Someone went missing and could n’t find it anywhere. It must have been taken by Li Gui! "

Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou looked at each other and saw a trace of suspicion in each other's eyes.

thunder.

Four of the five "witnesses" said they heard thunder. Only the lady in the clothing store said with certainty that she saw the ghost after a long rain.

The murderer plays a female ghost and will not appear in five locations in the town at the same time.

In the rainy night three years ago, there was only one thunder after the rain stopped, and the time of the thunder would not exceed 3 seconds. The female ghost played by the murderer could not teleport to five places in the town within 3 seconds.

Some of these people must be lying.
