Zhao Yu naturally did not believe that there was such a heresy in the world as to extend one's life against the will of heaven. Those who made the seven-star hanging coffin must also be charlatans like Master Zhang.
He believed that if the person represented by the birth date really suffered from some terminal disease, maybe this person would no longer be alive!
Therefore, they should not only search among the living, but also among the recently deceased!
If there really is such a person who matches the birth date and has just died of a serious illness, then this person must have a significant relationship with the hanging coffin case!
Great, Zhao Yu breathed a sigh of relief. After struggling for so long, he finally got a somewhat useful idea.
"Officer... there is another problem here that cannot be explained!" In order to get a reduced sentence for himself, Master Zhang was still thinking hard about the seven-star hanging coffin, and then said, "Why, the body of the seventh hanging coffin has... What if there is no birthday and horoscope
"This seems a bit unreasonable..." he said seriously, "Seven-star hanging coffin, as the name suggests, requires seven corpses to be effective. If one person's birthday is missing, wouldn't it be ineffective?"
"This... maybe it's not difficult to explain!" Zhao Yu pondered and said, "People's hearts are unpredictable. I guess that there may be a villain next to this person who wants to defy fate and survive!
"Someone didn't seem to want him to be able to survive, so he secretly tampered with the female corpse and secretly took away the birth date of the seventh female corpse, destroying his entire plan!"
"Yes, yes!" Master Zhang nodded in agreement, "It's really possible! In this way, it seems to make sense, right?"
"That makes no sense!" Zhao Yu shook his head and sighed, "I still don't know where the body came from!"
"Yes, yes..." Master Zhang quickly nodded.
"By the way..." Zhao Yu took out the yellow paper with birth dates written on it and asked again, "Didn't you say before that this yellow paper looks familiar? Here! Your chance to make a crime and meritorious service has come, so hurry up and say, Where have you seen it before?”
"Ahem!" Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Master Zhang suddenly sighed and said helplessly, "Don't you know what we are doing? In order to retain customers, we need to dig holes and withhold money appropriately! So... What I said before about looking familiar was all nonsense!"
"I'm such a naughty bear!" Zhao Yu didn't expect that the other party was talking nonsense. He was immediately disappointed and cursed angrily.
"Hmm... um... don't be anxious, don't be anxious..." Master Zhang picked up the yellow paper as if he was atoning for it and looked at it carefully again.
At this time, Xu Lu and Master Zhang's wife, who were lying on the ground, had slowly woken up. They took a long breath, but their expressions were still blank. They slowly got up from the ground, one leaning against the door frame and the other against the edge of the kang.
At this time, they had seen Zhao Yu and Master Zhang studying something together. However, their minds were blank, as if they had forgotten what happened just now...
"Tsk, tsk..." Master Zhang looked at the yellow paper seriously and said to Zhao Yu, "Officer, I didn't look carefully before! After looking carefully now, I found... found..."
"What did you find? Can you please stop grinding? Say it quickly!" Zhao Yu urged.
"I found that I had completely misread it before!" Master Zhang pointed to the birth date characters on the yellow paper and said, "Look at these characters written on it. They are vigorous and powerful, and the ancient style is proud. This brushstrokes and strength are simply amazing. I don’t have a choice!”
"Huh? What you mean...is..." Zhao Yu seemed to understand.
"You don't know, cinnabar turns into ink, so writing is more laborious than normal writing. If you want to write well, you need to practice for many years!
"So now some people with shallow skills basically don't use cinnabar to write!" Master Zhang pointed to the red letters on the yellow paper and said, "But if you look at the words written by this person with cinnabar, it is obvious that he has profound skills and must have been written by the master. Hands!"
"Oh... I understand!" Zhao Yu understood, "You mean, not everyone can write such a good birthday horoscope?"
"Yes!" Master Zhang nodded, "So, this person must be a master in our profession! And there should be only a handful of such masters in the entire Fulai Province!"
"Oh..." Zhao Yu snapped his fingers, seeming to see new hope, "In this case, you should know something about it, right? Make me a list quickly!"
"Okay!" Master Zhang nodded in agreement, "I do know a few such high-level people, and they are basically in Xiakou or the provincial capital.
"These people are amazing! Ordinary people can't hire them. They only serve the richest entrepreneurs and bosses. Some charges even start in the tens of millions!"
"I once heard of a master who, in order to convince his employer of his magic power, hired more than 300 actors at one time. What a big scene!"
"I'll wipe..." Zhao Yu swallowed and thought to himself, how could he still do this
"You wait... There are not many names, I will write to you..." With that, Master Zhang picked up the pen and paper and began to write a message to Zhao Yu.
"Ah...ah!!?"
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Xu Lu finally remembered what happened before about Zhao Yu turning into a ghost, and suddenly screamed in horror.
"Hey? Hey, hey, hey..." Master Zhang's wife was also so frightened that she could not even stand up and kept burrowing under the kang...
"Old Zhang!" Zhao Yu ignored these two people and asked Master Zhang seriously, "Are there any masters you know who live nearby? I still think that the corpse in the seven-star hanging coffin should be From the surrounding area!”
"No, absolutely not!" Master Zhang vowed, "This area of Wuqing Mountain has a radius of 100 kilometers. I can guarantee that there is no one more professional than me!
"Did you know? Li Tianmu's lame Ah Qi still uses Chinese pinyin when writing divination for people!"
"Ghost! Ghost!" Master Zhang's wife pointed at Zhao Yu and shouted, "Old Zhang, he is a ghost. Even electricity can't kill him! Run... run..."
"Okay, don't call me mother-in-law! You've already been betrayed..." Master Zhang shook his sleeves and continued to say to Zhao Yu, "Officer, although there are not many such people, there are also many who are very low-key and don't show up often!
"So, I suggest you, in addition to the few people I gave you, you also check more of the big bosses who are very, very rich. In their high-end circles, you should know more than me!"
Buzz buzz…
Unexpectedly, as soon as Master Zhang finished speaking, a rapid siren sounded outside the door.
It turned out that Zhao Yu had notified Xiong Wendong by text message early and asked him to send the police to arrest him. Due to the broken bridge, the police forces at this time were all dispatched from Songzhou.
"Old... old man... are you the police? Why are the police here..." At this time, Master Zhang's wife was shocked and hurriedly grabbed Master Zhang's arm, at a loss.
"Okay! Good performance!" Zhao Yu was quite satisfied with Master Zhang's positive attitude and said immediately, "In the future, you should reform yourself and stop doing those evil things! If this case is really solved, I will help you apply for sentencing. of!"
"Thank you, police officer. Thank you, police officer. Don't worry! I will definitely change my ways, change my mind, and be a new person. I will never dare to cheat again!" After Master Zhang bowed repeatedly, he looked Zhao Yu carefully, and then asked curiously, "But... police officer!
"How did you do that trick you just turned into a ghost? In my half-life, I have never seen such a realistic effect. I can't see any flaws at all!
"Where are your props hidden
"Well..." He pondered for a moment, and then begged with great piety, "Excuse me, can you... teach me this trick?"
