Card Room

Chapter 490

Tang Ci placed the drone on the tallest tree, and the angle of the camera was adjusted downward, just to capture the panoramic view of Zhao's courtyard. With the other end of the drone in his hand, he can monitor the situation of the Zhao family at any time through the card.

However, after Qin Feng and Xiao Ming left, no one walked into the Zhao family. The picture taken by the drone is always an empty courtyard, and no figure can be seen.

Lu Jiuchuan frowned, "Who arranged the Zhao's house of worship?"

Tang said: "At present, the whereabouts of the Zhao family are unknown. Even if there are relatives who set up the mourning hall, they will not arrange it on the first day of their disappearance. At least they must be confirmed that they are dead before they can show their spiritual position. , At least three days. "

"That is to say, we have to monitor the Zhao family for a few days before it is possible to find the person who arranged the hall?" Lu Jiuchuan paused and said again, "If he only gives the Zhao family every night, Xiang and Xiaolou, their night escorts were transported to the ghost town, and they would definitely not meet each other. So, who this person is can only be investigated by us. "

"That's right." Tang Ci said calmly, "We came to three years ago, we can find some clues that Professor Xiao can't investigate. In addition to the people who set up the hall for the Zhao family, there are 'Li Guisuo' Do n’t you think there is a problem with the origin of the fate? ”

"A lot of people said that they saw Li Gui last night." Chu Huaying's voice came through the headphones. She said, "But the first person to say that Li Gui was seen last night is Mr. Liu who lives near Dongshi. An old man is the longest-lived in the town. He is 80 years old and his eyes are dizzy, so when he said that he saw a ghost, many people did not believe it. "

"But later, a few young people and children also said that they saw Li Gui, and the rumor that Li Gui claimed his life would become more and more bizarre." Gui Yuanzhang added.

"Which people specifically said they saw the white ghost, and when and where did they see it? Have you carefully investigated it?" Tang Ci asked in a low voice.

"Of course. When I visited the town just now, I wrote down the names of all the people who said 'I saw Li Gui last night'." Chu Huaying didn't need to use a pen and paper. She remembered things directly in her mind. Her physical qualities have been strengthened, and her memory is several times better than the average person.

Chu Huaying closed his eyes and carefully sorted out the information in his mind, saying: "In addition to the first Liu Liu, who mentioned Li Gui, the other also includes Zhang Chengyu, an hunter who lives in the west of the city; Qin Ruolan, the owner of the clothing store who lives in the north of the city; Lin Yueran and his 7-year-old child Lin Doudou; and Xue Ersao, who sells tofu in Chengdong. "

Tang Ci heard this, and could not help wondering, "Everyone from east to west has witnessed the female ghost in white?"

Chu Huaying nodded and said, "It should be the murderer deliberately swaying around the whole town, so that people in all directions can see the figure of Li Gui, which is also convenient for him to create the public opinion of" Li Gui Su Ming "."

Tang Ci asked, "What time did these people see Li Gui?"

Chu Hua English regretted that "I saw Li Gui in the middle of the night, and I was very frightened. No one could tell the exact time, but everyone saw it only after the rain stopped. The rain stopped should be at Yin Shi."

Lu Jiuchuan said, “That is to say, Miss Zhao ’s second daughter Zhao Ze’an married on July 14th, and Chen Yu ’s wife also gave birth to children at the same time. Chen Yu and Zhao Ze then walked out of the town one after another, and Chen Yu went Burning paper, Zhao Ze was dating a mysterious man. At the same time, a ghost in white clothes appeared in the town. Then, the people of the Zhao family and the Chen family disappeared collectively. "

Tang said, "In this way, the masquerade of the masked man with Zhao Zesui was greatly reduced. He couldn't date Zhao Ze while acting as a ghost, wandering around the town for a whole circle for different people to discover. "

Lu Jiuchuan said, "Xiao Ming's suspicion is not too big. Last night was the day of his marriage. According to his description, he was in Yuezhou to wait for the wedding party. He waited until Jiji had passed, and the shadow of the bride was still missing. So, He first sent people back to Qingfeng Town to find out. After learning that the bride was missing, Ma Jiabian came to Qingfeng Town early the next morning. "

Tang Ci agreed: "I also think that the possibility of Xiao Ming committing a crime is very low. As a groom official, once he disappears, it is easy to be found. And, if he comes to Qingfeng Town halfway as a ghost to kill, then return to Yuezhou, and then I went back to Qingfeng Town to find someone, and I was too late in time. "

Not the groom official Xiao Ming, nor the mysterious mask man who met with Miss Zhao in private, who was the ghost and murdered last night? All four fell silent. A moment later, Lu Jiuchuan asked, "What about Mayor Qin Feng?"

"It doesn't look very similar on the surface, but we don't have definitive evidence." Tang paused, suggesting, "It's not as good as this. He is just now investigating the missing residents in the town. The residence of Xiushui Lane must be empty. Let's go again and check his secret room carefully? "

Lu Jiuchuan simply nodded, "Let's go, hurry up."

According to the path in their memory, the two quickly came to Xiushui Lane and sneaked into Qin Feng's residence.

After coming to the study room, Tang Ci quickly walked to the bookcase-he remembered that there was a very thick "Compendium of Materia Medica" in the middle of the bookcase. As long as the book was pulled out, the bookshelves would expand to both sides, revealing a secret room.

Tang Ci gently pulled out the book, but what surprised him was that the bookshelf in front of him remained still.

Lu Jiuchuan was startled. "What about the Chamber of Secrets? Isn't the institution three years ago not this book?"

Tang Ci frowned and looked around, trying to draw out other books, but the bookshelf remained unresponsive. He reached out and knocked carefully on the surrounding walls, and heard no echo.

Tang Ci firmly said: "Three years ago, there was no secret room in this study. That is to say, when the serial murder happened, Qin Feng did not use the secret room to hide the rattle of the whole room."

Lu Jiuchuan changed his face and said, "Go to his bedroom and see if the roster is there."

The two quickly walked into the next bedroom-the wooden cabinet beside the bed was still there, but it was not locked. Lu Jiuchuan opened the cabinet and took out a large stack of rosters, which really recorded all the residents of the town.

Tang Ci and Lu Jiuchuan each took half of the roster and quickly browsed through it, but did not find the one with the red cross.

All rosters look normal.

The two looked at each other.

Just then, there was a footstep outside and it sounded like the two were walking side by side into the yard.

Lu Jiuchuan immediately took Tang Ci and flew to the roof, listening to the movement inside the house with his ears raised.

Just listen to Qin Feng said, "Young Master Xiao, do you know what relatives and friends are there in Zhao's family?"

Xiao Ming said, "I really don't know. I met Miss Zhao's family no more than three times. We were married on the belly. By the way, I just heard many people say that a ghost appeared in the town last night, July 10. The fifth is the Ghost Festival. Could it really be that the Zhao family did something that was utterly innocent. Was Li Gui asking for it? "

Qin Feng smiled and said, "You can't believe the sayings of ghosts and gods. So, Master Xiao, you go back to the inn to rest first. If there is any news, I will send someone to inform you as soon as possible."

Xiao Ming nodded and turned away dignifiedly.

Qin Feng paced back and forth in the study room alone, his brow furrowed, as if he was lost in thought. After a moment, he took out an empty blue book, sat at the desk, lifted the pen, and wrote the words carefully on a stroke by stroke.

Lu Jiuchuan was hiding on the roof, and through the cracks in the tiles, he could see the name of the person who was missing last night.

Chen Yu's family of eleven.

Zhao Zean's family of 18 people.

Everyone's name was memorized by him in the book, Lu Jiuchuan and Tang Ci glanced at each other-this is the roster they found in the investigation three years later, but at that time, the roster The name on has been crossed out.

After returning to the inn, Tang Ci whispered, "Qin Feng should not be the murderer, but has been investigating the murderer."

Lu Jiuchuan touched his chin thoughtfully, and said after a moment, "It seems that Qin Feng's roster records innocent dead people. He has not put a red cross on the roster just now, maybe he is not sure about these people. Is it a death, only recorded as a missing person. "

Tang Ci suddenly thought of a key "but, in the roster we found, many people were not dead, nor missing, and still alive. Why did Qin Feng write the names of those people?"

Lu Jiuchuan reluctantly said, "We have to wait for Xiao Lou to investigate. We will not be able to find out what happened three years later."

Tang said, "How do we leave clues to Xiao Lou?"

Lu Jiuchuan also fell into contemplation.

Three years ago, how should I leave clues to my teammates three years later?

Not in the same time and space, they simply cannot talk directly. All team transmissions, voice headsets, and heartbeats have all failed. How can people in the past and current people communicate with each other?

Suddenly, Tang Ci thought of an idea and said, "Qin Feng began to record the roster three years ago. Xiao Lou and they can see it three years later. If we leave some books, Xiao Lou can also be found after three years? "

Lu Jiuchuan's eyes lit up. "Yes. The question is how to stay? Where is the safest place to stay? In three years, there have been too many changes. In case someone takes the clues left by us halfway, Xiao Lou will probably get nothing. Moreover, they cannot find us after dawn, and they will be in a hurry. "

At this moment, Gui Yuanzhang suddenly said, "My painting and calligraphy should come in handy."

Tang said, "Lao Gui, what do you want to draw?"

Gui Yuanzhang said, "Draw some paintings, describe the scene three years ago, and then hide in the place where they will definitely go, and others will rarely go to--"

The most dangerous places are the safest.

Tang Ci quickly responded, "You mean, Zhao family, Chen family, two crime scenes?"

Gui Yuanzhang nodded. “Since the Zhao and Chen families are said to have been ordered by Li Gui, the residents of Qingfeng Town must not dare to get close to these two murderous houses, but Xiao Lou and they want to investigate and will naturally go to the scene to find clues. Painted into a picture, hidden in the Zhao family and the Chen family, Xiaolou they will go after three years, they will understand what we mean. "
