Chapter 32: Working Together to Investigate the Case

There was something important to do, and early the next morning, Jingwu came here to look for them, and when he entered the back room, he saw a very surprising scene:

Beiran sat on the bed, leaning against the wall with a frightened expression, and Ji Changkong fell on the ground next to the bed in a miserable posture, half supporting his upper body, as if he had been pushed and kicked down.

Keigo stood in place, neither staying nor leaving. After a while, he suddenly realized that he knew some earth-shattering secret, and covered his mouth and said, "Ah, you, you ......."

Ji Chang blanked his eyes: "If you have something to say, just say it." ”

Jingwu said embarrassedly: "I know, you, hahaha......, actually, hahaha......."

Ji Changkong was even more speechless, and said, "If your brain is growing, then don't think about me crookedly." ”

Jingwu smiled: "Oh, I know you're definitely not that kind of person, just kidding, hehe." With that, he hurriedly went over and helped Ji Changkong up.

Ji Changkong supported his waist with his right hand, and seemed to have fallen not lightly, and after being helped by Jingwu to sit down, he wondered in his heart: This dead girl is really ruthless, why don't you usually see her so strong.

It turned out that when Beiran woke up in the morning, as soon as he opened his eyes, he dimly saw a man sleeping next to him, his face only a stone's throw away from him. Before she could see who the man was, she kicked him out of bed screaming.

Ji Changkong was awakened by her scream, frowned to look at her, and was kicked out of bed by her without any defense, and the kick hit his right side of the waist, which really hurt.

Coincidentally, at this moment, as soon as Bei Ran stepped out, as soon as Ji Changkong landed, Jingwu pushed the door in, and couldn't help but wonder if he had calculated the time to come in and deliberately looked at him as a joke.

After seeing the situation clearly, Bei Ran got out of bed embarrassed, went to Ji Changkong's side, and whispered with concern: "Sir, are you okay?" ”

Ji Changkong rubbed his waist again, and said with a dark face: "It's okay." ”

But that's not like it's okay.

Bei Ran said again: "Why are you next to me?" I remember you were here yesterday. ”

Ji Changkong said helplessly: "I was originally here, but you were not honest when you slept in the middle of the night, and you always rolled under the bed, so I went to lie next to you and used it as a guardrail for you." ”

Beiran lowered his head, wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh, "Yes, I'm sorry." ”

Beiran didn't dare to laugh, but Jingwu couldn't help it, he had been laughing since Ji Changkong spoke, and when he heard this, he couldn't laugh straight.

Ji Changkong's face darkened, he took a deep breath, then got up, grabbed Jingwu's back collar, carried him all the way to the door, threw him out with his hand, and then closed the door and bolted it.

Keigo sat in the open space outside the door, laughed for a long time, and only after laughing enough did he get up, go to the side of the house, and enter the house through the window.

After briefly explaining the purpose of today's operation to Beiran, they set off in two ways.

Unexpectedly, Jing Wu walked to the gate of Zhang's Mansion with high spirits, but was finally stopped by the housekeeper. Looking at the housekeeper looking at him with the eyes of a prisoner, Jingwu felt aggrieved and said, "Butler, just let me out, I won't run, I promise to come back before dark." ”

The housekeeper said, "No, if you don't come back, where can I find someone?" As he spoke, his eyes glanced at Ji Changkong on the side, as if he was afraid that the two of them would elope. Zhijing Wu said that Ji Changkong was his cousin, everyone believed it, but he didn't believe it, and when he saw the two of them together, he felt that something was wrong.

Keigo explained, "I really just want to go out and come back when I'm done. ”

The housekeeper pushed Jingwu back and said, "Zhang's Mansion is so big, isn't it enough for you to shop, you just stay with me honestly, and after you and Miss get married, I won't stop you from going wherever you want." ”

Keigo argued: "However, every day in the house, the view from the bedroom to the living room is not very good." ”

The housekeeper pushed him and said, "That's not good, let's go and go back." ”

Jingwu was watched by the housekeeper and couldn't get out, so the matter of inquiring about clues could only be handed over to Ji Changkong and Bei Dye.

The two came to the outside of the house, and Ji Changkong asked Bei Ran to stay in the east of the city to inquire, and went to the west of the city himself. Before parting, he took out a whistle from his arms and handed it to Bei Ran, telling her that he must blow this whistle in case of trouble, and he will rush over as soon as possible. Kitazme made a note and carefully put the whistle in his bag.

However, at the end of the day, Ji Changkong and Bei Ran traveled all over the city, and they didn't find out which families had died in the past two days, and they went to some remote places and gutters, and they didn't find any discarded corpses.

When they returned to the house in the evening, there was no progress, and the three of them were all depressed. Because of the fatigue of running during the day, Bei Dye was a little tired and went to bed early. After she fell asleep, Ji Changkong went out of the door and went to Jingwu's room.

Keigo was also waiting for him. Since he didn't find a breakthrough outside, he could only squat and guard the weasel again.

Today, they went earlier than last night, and when they arrived at the demon's residence, Huangshan had not yet gone out. They stood on the roof, and waited for a long time to see him do anything.

Jingwu said: "He doesn't plan to do nothing tonight, just sleep steadily." ”

Ji Changkong said: "It's still early, wait a little longer." ”

When he was approaching, Huang Shan got up from his seat, put on a black robe, blew out the candles, went to the bookshelf, opened the mechanism, and entered the secret passage inside.

The two looked at each other: "He's going to act." Go, keep up. ”

After Huangshan entered, the secret passage was closed, and the bookshelf was moved back to its original position.

Ji Changkong and Jingwu jumped off the roof, came to his room, and opened the mechanism smoothly according to his appearance.

Inside, it was pitch black, and they kept their steps low, so as not to let themselves out of the footsteps, lest they be discovered by the weasel. After walking for a while, there was a little light in front of me, and I thought it was the exit, but when I arrived, I found that it was just a wall lamp hanging on the wall.

With the lights illuminating, the road is much better. After walking a little further, there was a fork in the road ahead, one to the left and one to the right.

The two stood at the intersection and looked at each other, the two roads looked exactly the same, and they didn't know where they led. Jingwu said: "Which way are we going?" ”

Ji Changkong stared at the two roads, thought for a moment and said, "To the right." ”

Not long after walking to the right, I found the trace of Huangshan not far ahead.

Jingwu bumped Ji Changkong with his elbow and praised: "It's really yours, how do you know to go to the right?" ”

Ji Changkong replied expressionlessly: "Intuition." ”

Keigo: "......"

Huangshan finally walked to a wall and stopped, which is the end of the dark passage and the exit. He twisted a sharp stone on the wall, and the wall moved aside to make way for a half-man high exit, and he bent down and got out of it.

Ji Changkong and Jingwu had been watching him from behind, and after he went out, the two of them also followed him out. Unexpectedly, I found that this was the backyard of Zhang's house, very close to the place where Ji Changkong and Bei Ran lived, and this exit was a rockery in the garden.

Entering the courtyard, Huangshan began to become sneaky, looking left and right from time to time, as if he was afraid of being discovered. And Ji Changkong, in order not to be noticed by Huangshan, they also stayed away from him.

Huangshan bent left and right into a small courtyard, a moment later, Ji Changkong and they followed again, but Huangshan disappeared, looked around, still did not find a figure.

Jingwu said: "Where did he go?" You can't just disappear into thin air. ”

Ji Changkong said: "Maybe there are other secret passages here." ”

The two of them were looking for anything around them that could be used as a mechanism for the tunnel, when they suddenly saw a figure flickering in a room to the northwest of where they were standing.

The two of them quickly swept up the roof together, and as soon as they opened the tile to see the situation in the house, they saw that Huang Shan was leaving from the bedside of the owner of the house, carrying a black package similar to yesterday, and pushed the door out.

Ji Chang Hollow said: It's bad, it's a step too late.
