Chapter Twenty-Eight: Finding the Real Murderer
Bamboo! It's bamboo!
Xiao Yan immediately ran back to the place where he had tripped before, fortunately he hadn't kindly covered that small piece of bamboo before, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to find it now.
Xiao Yan squatted on the ground and looked seriously at the small piece of emerald green broken bamboo that tripped him up, the surface of this truncated bamboo was smooth and the incision was neat, so that it didn't look like it was cut by an axe, but more like it was cut by a sharp weapon such as a sword.
Xiao Yan thought of something in his heart, so he grabbed a handful of yellowed leaves nearby, and looked at the smooth fracture, the corners of his mouth hooked, "Finally let me find it." ”
After that, Xiao Yan carefully surveyed around here several times, and finally found a yellow sword spike in the pile of leaves, and seeing this sword spike, Xiao Yan's smile deepened.
Before it got dark, he rushed back to the Temple of Light and found Hao Yun, and after the day's efforts and He Shan's full cooperation, Hao Yun prepared all the details of these victims.
Zhang Li, a junior heavenly soldier, a mid-level 4 strength, originally belonged to Ziyun Palace, and received an anonymous letter before her disappearance, but someone in the same dormitory saw it, Zhang Li's face changed greatly after reading the letter, and then took the sword and hurriedly went out, never coming back.
Li Yunqi, an intermediate heavenly soldier, the peak of strength level 4, originally belonged to Wanhe Palace, before the disappearance, someone saw her sneakily go to see a black-robed man in the middle of the night, I don't know what to say, I saw her come back and clean up, so she hurriedly went out, and when she went out, she knocked over the lamp on the table, almost causing a fire.
Han Xiaoxiao, a junior heavenly soldier, the peak of strength level 4, originally belonged to Wanhe Palace, and received a bag before he disappeared, and the bag was thrown to the ground of the dormitory, but the things in the bag were missing, and he didn't know where to go after leaving.
……
Xiao Yan flipped through the information sorted out by Hao Yun page by page, he took out a piece of paper and wrote a few words on the paper.
The woman, who had received something before her disappearance, panicked, and hurriedly went out.
This is what these missing women have in common, and the key to it is, what exactly did they receive before they disappeared? At present, he only knows that Ling Xuan has received a threatening letter, and the content is to directly attack Ling Xuan's weakness, only in this way can a person with good strength become flustered, could it be that they have received similar threatening letters?
These victims, the highest strength is level 5 peak, and the lowest is also level 3 peak, who can catch a person with such strength without alarming Lord He Shan, either this person's strength is too much higher than them, or this person has something in his hand that makes these victims have to throw a rat bogey.
At this point, the matter is becoming more and more confusing, although many clues have surfaced, but the real murderer is still at large, Xiao Yan couldn't figure out what he had to do with the information he saw, so he came to the task and found what he handled.
"Lord He, I want to take a look at the trick that Han Xiaoxiao fell into the dormitory before she disappeared, okay?"
"You want to investigate the case?" He Shan was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, "By the way, one of the missing girls is your sweetheart, no wonder you are so positive, like their sweethearts have also come to me to inquire after hearing that they are missing, but now it is estimated that many have given up." ”
"They all have sweethearts?"
"yes, oh, no, there's someone who doesn't have a crush, just a crush." Speaking of this, He Shan smiled helplessly.
"Crush? Who is it? ”
"Oh, yes, you just came, you may not know yet, it's that Li Yunqi, almost everyone in the entire hall knows about her crush on Gao Haipeng, but this Gao Haipeng doesn't know, he only knows about cultivation one day, and now he probably doesn't even know the news that she is missing!"
"Gao Haipeng?" Xiao Yan didn't have the impression of this person at all in his mind, it seemed that he knew too little about this person from the Hall of Light.
"Oh, you want that bag, don't you? Well, okay, no problem, I wish someone would solve the case quickly, I am worried to death every day. He said as he walked to the inner room next to him.
Seeing He Shan leaving, Xiao Yan stood in front of He Shan's table and had nothing to do, so he observed the furnishings on the table, and suddenly, his eyes swept to a thick book spread out on the table, with a few big characters written on it, a list of tasks for July.
Xiao Yan was curious, so he walked over and took a look.
On the first day of July, Zhang Liyin released a task, a water system 4th order demonic beast Neidan.
Zhao Qingsheng received a task, a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum.
On the second day of the first month of July, Shan Weifeng received a task to clean the rooms of the whole hall for a month.
On the third day of the seventh month, Gao Haipeng received two tasks, one of the fire 5th order demonic beasts and one of the water lilies.
"Well, give it, this is the bag that stayed in the dormitory, I looked at it several times, and I didn't see a reason, you take it back and look at it, and return it tomorrow now, otherwise your task points will be deducted."
Before Xiao Yan finished reading, He Shant came out, holding a bright red sachet in his hand and handed it to him, after Xiao Yan took the sachet, he remembered his sachet, and he didn't know where the sachet fell, it was sewn for him by the beast before Xun'er left, and it contained Xun'er, colorful scales, and Xiao Xiaoxiao's hair.
Xun'er said that this means that they have always been by his side, bless him all the way safe, this sachet he has been hanging on his body, I don't know when it suddenly disappeared, for this he has also looked for many places, but he has not found it, and I don't know if anyone has picked it up, or lying directly in a dark corner, if Xun'er knows that he lost the sachet, he will definitely pretend to be angry and beat him.
After a while, Xiao Yan put away these melancholy thoughts, said goodbye to He Shan, and returned to the dormitory.
He took out this bag and observed it carefully, the color of this bag is red, or that kind of bright red, a bit like the color of blood, embroidered with a white flower, a blooming white lotus, the cloth used is also a common folk cotton linen, any cloth can be bought, the stitches are delicate, at first glance, it is from the hand of a woman, but this kind of bag can be bought for a few gold coins, it is very ordinary, it can be seen that the murderer's meticulousness is very accessible.
Xiao Yan, who didn't see the clues in the bag, took out the stack of materials handed over to him by Hao Yun and looked carefully, this information was written out by Hao Yun himself, each one, presumably after many verifications, repeated verification before daring to write it, from the piles of waste paper in the dormitory paper basket, it can be seen how much Hao Yun wasted his heart for these materials, so that now he begins to snore when he sleeps.
Everyone is so hard-working, Xiao Yan must also work hard, although he has the object of suspicion in his heart, but there is no real evidence, he does not dare to attack rashly, it is small to startle the snake, in case the dog jumps off the wall and hurts Ling Xuan, it is big! I don't know where Ling Xuan is at the moment, whether she is doing well or not, whether she is still in this world.
At this time, Ling Xuan was locked in a small dark room, looking at the moon through the slightly larger window, "Xiao Yan, where are you?" Why didn't you come to save me? ”
