Chapter 124: Lead the snake out of the hole

Views:

"After arriving in Canada, I opened a restaurant..." Wu Yu continued to tell us about his past—

After I finished junior high school, I didn't study anymore, I didn't have much culture, and I didn't even know all the twenty-six letters, so I could only say "shrimp guy" in English. I thought it would bring a lot of inconvenience to my life when I came to Canada because I didn't know English. But after I got there, I realized that I didn't know a word of English. It didn't have much impact on my life. Not knowing Cantonese was even more troublesome.

When I first got there, because I didn't understand anything, I turned to the local Chinese immigration service for help. But the social worker who helped me could only speak Cantonese, and we couldn't understand what the other person was saying. In the end, we asked a local westerner who could speak Cantonese to help us translate, which was often regarded as a joke by us later.

Although I still don't speak Cantonese very well, I can basically understand it, so it has little impact on my life. However, although I gradually got used to the local life, Xiaohao still couldn't get used to it. Even when he was about to finish middle school, he kept complaining to me that it was not good or bad, especially that people around him were very bad to him. friendly. I also heard from his head teacher that none of the classmates liked him very much.

To be honest, I think in Canada, whether Chinese or Westerners are much friendlier than in China, at least my car broke down on the road, and the passing driver will definitely get out of the car and ask me if I want to help, even if he is in a hurry . This kind of thing is not rare in China, but I am afraid it is rare. So I think it's not that others are not friendly to him, but that he doesn't know how to communicate. Ah Chai died early. I brought up this child. I know his temper very well. As a father, I think he is very difficult to get along with, let alone others.

The schools over there are different from those in China. They do not only pay attention to the students' grades, but also pay more attention to the students' families and growth. His head teacher specially found a few people to talk to me about it, and there was even a psychologist among them. Experts say that his mother died early, and I doted on him too much, so I developed his selfish, inferior but domineering character. He also suggested that I try to let him live an independent life and not let him rely too much on me, otherwise it will not be conducive to his growth.

Westerners do things very differently from us. We always want to keep our children by our side, but they like to let them take care of themselves. Although I really want to keep Xiaohao by my side, what the experts say makes sense. I can't let him stay by my side all my life, because one day I will grow old and die one day. So after he finished middle school, I wanted him to go to university in other provinces.

However, when I asked him where he wanted to go to university, he actually said that he wanted to go back to China to go to university, and the university he chose was near our hometown. At the beginning, I was very opposed, but he insisted, saying that people from abroad are not friendly, and he must go back to China to go to university, otherwise he will not go to university. I couldn't beat him, so he had to agree. Anyway, Master Ye Zhen said that the artifact can suppress infant resentment for more than a hundred years, and it has only been ten years, so I think there should be no problem.

Alas... Good and evil are rewarded in the end, and the way of heaven is reincarnated. If you don't believe me, look up, who the heavens will forgive!

This is right. After doing bad things, there will be retribution. No matter how you hide, you can't escape. During the Spring Festival, Xiaohao went back to Canada to spend time with me. At that time, he was still vigorously shoveling snow in front of my house. Unexpectedly, it was only a month later. When I saw him again, he was already covered with clothes. The shriveled corpse of scars...

From Wu Yu's narrative, I found a lot of valuable clues, but also a lot of doubts. For example, the school has strictly blocked information about this fact. The parents of the other four deceased have not yet learned of their son's death letter. Why did he know so quickly in Canada? I questioned him about this, and he sighed: "In order to cultivate Xiaohao's independent ability, I follow the advice of psychologists and try not to contact him. However, although we rarely talk on the phone, it does not mean that I do not know at all. His situation. Because he uses my supplementary card, I can check his every consumption. I rely on these consumption records to guess his situation in China. When I found out that he had not used the supplementary card for three days When I got stuck, I called him, no one answered the house he rented, and his cell phone kept shutting down. I felt that something was wrong, so I called the college and asked his head teacher about the situation, but the other party kept making excuses. At this time, I realized that something must have happened, so I flew over immediately. I didn't expect that after the walk, all I saw was his body..." His eyes were faintly filled with tears.

"You are in the academy all day long to find out the murderer and avenge your son?" I asked.

He shook his head gently: "I am indeed looking for the murderer, but I just want to atone for myself."

"Atonement? Why do you want to atone?" Zhen Zhen asked curiously.

He smiled wryly and said, "Maybe you won't believe it, but I really didn't think about taking revenge for Xiaohao, because I knew in my heart that it was my father who really killed him. The evil cause was planted, and now he is caused to bear the evil fruit for me, so the one who really killed him was me."

"I can't blame you for this, you don't have to blame yourself too much." Zhen Zhen comforted.

"No, you don't understand the cause and effect. Xiaohao was indeed killed by me." Tears forcibly finally poured out of his vicissitudes of life.

"The murder weapon used by the murderer was the ancient sword you used to suppress infant resentment?" I think I already understand the cause and effect of what he said.

He looked at me in astonishment and nodded slowly: "Yes, Xiaohao was killed by the artifact I buried."

"Why are you so sure?" I asked again.

He smiled bitterly: "When I buried the artifacts and the pagoda, Linan College had not yet been built, and in order to cultivate Xiaohao's independent ability, I let him choose his own school. However, I never imagined that the school he chose was unexpectedly high. It was built where I buried the pagoda. Retribution, everything is retribution, and the sky will not spare any sinner who has committed sins..."

Although he looked sad, I had to find out the ins and outs of this matter from him, so I asked: "Although the academy is built where you buried the ancient sword, it does not mean that the murderer must use it to kill people, why do you think that Is the murder weapon the ancient sword you buried?"

"Just relying on Xiaohao's shriveled body..." After he finished saying this, he took a moment to calm down before telling us the reason—

When Master Ye Zhen cast spells to suppress infantile grievances, he told me that the blood of living people must be used to stimulate the spirituality of the artifact. He originally planned to use his own blood, but he was in his sixties at the time, and I was afraid that he would not be able to bear it, so I suggested using his own blood. He also knew that he was incapable of doing it, so he told me that there was no need for too much blood, just let the blade get a little bit on it. I thought he meant to use the artifact to cut open the skin, leaving a little blood on the blade, so I picked up the artifact and prepared to cut my wrist. However, he suddenly snatched the artifact in a panic, and said to me with lingering fear: "You almost died."

Seeing that he was so nervous, I asked him what was going on, and he explained to me: "This artifact is not an ordinary thing, it not only has a demonic nature, but it is also alive when it touches blood. If you cut your skin with it just now, it will In a moment, it will absorb all the blood in your body without leaving a drop. In this way, can you still live?" Hearing him talk about this humble ancient sword in front of him so magically, I was only half-believing, but after a while I I totally believed it.

Following his instructions, I went to the kitchen to get a kitchen knife, cut my wrist and poured out a bowl of blood and handed it to him. He poured blood on the artifact. I thought the blood would flow along the blade to the ground, but in fact the blood disappeared instantly when it got on the blade, like falling on the iron bar that was about to melt. That way, as soon as it touches the blade, it will evaporate immediately, and it will not flow to the ground at all.

He told me that if I cut my wrist directly with the divine weapon, the blood in my whole body would be absorbed by it in an instant, and it would immediately turn into a shriveled mummy...

"So, after you saw your son's body, you immediately affirmed that he was killed by the artifact you buried back then?" His account has already given me the answer, I just want to confirm it.

He nodded: "Yes, when I saw Xiaohao's body, I knew that he was killed by me. Moreover, I also knew that people would be killed by artifacts one after another."

"Why do you say that?" I asked again.

"Master Ye Zhen told me that artifacts have magical properties, and if used improperly, people will lose their minds. At first, I didn't quite believe what he said, but when he poured my blood on the artifact, I was completely I believed it. Because at that moment, a large number of fragmentary memory fragments suddenly appeared in my mind, and I also felt inexplicably irritable and angry, and even had an urge to kill, but this feeling quickly disappeared. He told me , blood can carry memories, and the fragmented memories of those evil spirits attached to the artifact will change my temperament greatly, and even occupy my mind. He gave me Ningshen tea before the event, just to protect my mind." He paused. Dun went on to say: "He also told me that the magical nature of the artifact is very deep. Even if his own blood does not fall on the artifact, it is easy to be manipulated by its demonic nature if he stays by his side for a long time. Therefore, along the way, he was able to obtain the magic talisman. Seal the magical nature of the divine weapon, or else he will lose his normality and kill people everywhere before he arrives at my house."

I think I already understand the ins and outs of this case. The ancient sword that Wu Yu buried in the past was accidentally discovered by the murderer. Because the murderer did not know the power of the ancient sword, he was manipulated and killed at will in the academy. In order to make up for the mistakes he made, Wu Yu wandered around the academy all day long in order to find the murderer. If this is the case, then I can guess who the murderer is, so I ask, "Is the girl who was arguing with you in the woods the murderer?"

Wu Yu looked at me in astonishment, and nodded vigorously after a moment of silence: "Yes, that's her. After these days of investigation, I can be sure that the divine tool is in her hands, and she has been manipulated by the magical nature of the divine tool. "

"Is she a student at the academy? What's her name?" This was my biggest concern.

However, on this crucial question, he refused to give me an answer: "I can't tell you right now."

"Why? Don't you want to bring her to justice and give justice to your son?" Zhen Zhen suddenly grabbed his collar excitedly and pulled him from the chair.

"I do, of course I do! Not only do I want to give Xiaohao justice, but also to atone for myself." His expression was also very excited.

Zhen Zhen yelled at him: "Then why don't you tell us who the murderer is?"

"It's not that I don't want to tell you, it's just that I can't tell you for the time being." He gradually lowered his head as he spoke.

"Did you know that if we catch the murderer a moment later, there may be one more victim! Do you still want her to kill more people, so that your son can have more companions on Huangquan Road?" Zhen Zhen said forcefully. Shake him a few times.

He raised his head suddenly: "No, I didn't think so."

"Then why can't you tell us now?" Zhen Zhen was still so excited.

"I can't say it now, I can't say it now anyway..." He lowered his head again and kept repeating similar words.

We spent the whole night unable to get Wu Yu to tell who the murderer was, so we had no choice but to let him go. Whoever told him to have foreign nationality, we couldn't detain him for a long time. But that's alright, anyway, there's not necessarily any clue to lock him up anyway, it's better to lure the snake out of the hole, I'm not afraid that he won't meet the murderer again. As long as you follow him, you can catch the murderer sooner or later.

I didn't sleep with Zhen Zhen all night, and I had to run behind Wu Yu's butt before I had time to eat breakfast, it was really hard! If Xueqing hadn't had to deal with other cases, I wouldn't want to do this drudgery, knowing that tracking is a very boring thing, and still tracking an Ojisan. We followed him for a long time and found nothing other than to learn that he was staying in a hotel near Lenan College, because he had been staying in his room and seemed to be sleeping. God of longevity, I also really want to sleep, I really want to open a room next to him to rest for a while, but unfortunately Zhen Zhen strongly opposed my proposal: "Who knows if you big pervert will do strange things!" I had to wait for him to come out at the end of the corridor.

Wu Yu didn't wake up until noon, we quietly followed him, and I accidentally kicked down a trash can. Fortunately, he didn't seem to notice us. After he left the hotel, he went into a convenience store to buy cigarettes and lighters. He hadn't found out that he had the habit of smoking before. It was probably because he was upset that he wanted to smoke! Then, he walked in the direction of the academy and entered a fast food restaurant outside the academy gate.

It was lunchtime, and there were many students eating in the fast food restaurant, but there were still a few vacancies. But it's very strange, there are other places to choose, but he has to sit next to the bathroom. Because the store was crowded with people, it was not easy for him to find us, and we didn't even eat breakfast, so he just sneaked in quietly, found a place where he could monitor him, and ate while staring at him.

He went to the bathroom after eating and sat in his place as if waiting for someone. I found him coming out of the toilet with a lit cigarette in his hand, but when he sat down he didn't smoke a single puff, just glanced at it from time to time. I thought his behavior was suspicious, but I couldn't think of something wrong for a while.

Just as I was pondering the mystery, there was a panicked scream from the bathroom, and a wet male student rushed out and yelled. His friends came over to ask him what he had found, and he said that the fire sprinklers in the men's bathroom had sprayed water for no reason, leaving him soaking wet. After speaking, he took out his mobile phone, MP3 and other items to check, and found that they were all malfunctioning because of water, and immediately called the manager to come over.

As soon as the manager of the fast food restaurant came over to understand the situation, he was surrounded by these boys and demanded compensation. The manager didn't immediately agree to their request, so they roared together to make the scene a mess, and also attracted the onlookers of other guests. After a long disturbance, the sweaty manager finally settled the group of students, and the other guests dispersed. However, at the end of the song, I found that Wu Yu was gone. He probably sneaked away while the chaos was just now.

Could it be that he knew we were following him and purposely dumped us? Why does he want to dump us? Does his strange behavior have something to do with the malfunction of the fire sprinkler

It seems that we lured the snake out of the hole and did not lead the snake out, but let the snake head run away. I'm starting to wonder if Woo Woo really wants to atone for his wrongs, maybe he's the real murderer.
