"There!" A group of people hurried over.
"Xiao Li, are you alright? We are all worried to death!" Zhang Mei rushed.
"That's right, as soon as we went out, we turned around and found that you hadn't followed, and we couldn't find it when we came back." Tang Jing held Jiang Xiaoli's hand with tears in her eyes.
Jiang Xiaoli pursed her lips, and gently broke free from her hand, a trace of sarcasm flashed in her downcast eyes.
Obviously he ran away by himself, why did you come back to me.
Tang Xi hooked the corners of her lips, but said nothing.
Who knows whether Tang Jing and the others looked for it, and she didn't pay attention. Anyway, Jiang Xiaoli was locked in the ghost wall alone at that time, even if they looked back, they couldn't find it, but, she didn't need to explain for Tang Jing, did she? If their friendship is strong enough, in fact, it would be fine to talk about this kind of thing, but if they can't talk about it, it just means that it is nothing more than plastic love.
"Hey, who of you moved the mummy of the prop to the corridor?" The staff member with the strong light said very dissatisfied.
Tang Xi and Fang Tianyun looked at each other and nodded.
Fang Tianyun stepped forward, took out her ID and held it up to the front: "Sorry, police. Please close the haunted house and evacuate the tourists."
"Police?" The staff member was taken aback, moved the strong light to the ID card, and was startled after seeing it clearly, "Please, may I ask, what happened to our haunted house?"
"Please evacuate the tourists first, it is inconvenient for ordinary students to sit in on the case." Fang Tianyun said solemnly.
"Yes yes yes." The staff member wiped his sweat.
"I'm the boss. If there is a problem with the haunted house, I have to stay." Ou Jian said with folded arms, "Is it? Miss Police."
"Okay, you stay." Fang Tianyun readily agreed.
Anyway, if someone is dead, the boss must be notified.
"Then who...Jiang Xiaoli?" Tang Xi said, "Please inform Xia Shuang, let them play by themselves, don't wait for me and Sister Yun."
"Oh." Jiang Xiaoli nodded, and then he was a little dazed again, "Didn't you say that the tourists should be evacuated?"
Tang Xi smiled and waved.
"Xiao Li, let's go." Tang Jing subconsciously pulled her out.
Tang Xi sneered disapprovingly, did Tang Jing really think that her friend would "betray" if she said a few words to her? You won't find reasons for yourself.
"This classmate, are you not going out?" Ou Jian leaned over, "Miss Police, if there is a case, even family members should avoid it?"
Fang Tianyun raised her eyebrows, and smiled: "Little friend, your method of attracting girls' attention is too old-fashioned." As she spoke, she brushed her hair behind her ears and patted him on the shoulder, saying earnestly : "It's good to find a primary school girl and talk about a university relationship. As for my sister, I don't belong to the same circle as you."
"..." Ou Jian's face flushed red.
Among a group of college students and high school students, it is not uncommon for them to be beautiful, but the relationship between their ages is always childish, unlike the charm of a mature woman like Fang Tianyun, who is pure and charming, but the secret thoughts in her heart are just being spoken out by other girls. just...
"Xixi, have you notified your team Chu?" Fang Tianyun ignored him and asked back.
"No." Tang Xi picked up the WeChat interface of her mobile phone and showed her, "Isn't this Xincheng? Let the Yan team from the Xincheng branch come over. The nature is still unclear, so there is no need to alert the serious crime team."
"You are afraid that he will scold you." Fang Tianyun said blackly.
"Hey, they are all acquaintances, and they are not the same." Tang Xi turned her head.
Well, it's still good to not clear Yan Shifei's memory!
Fang Tianyun shook her head, then said seriously: "Now, gather all the staff of the haunted house here and turn on all the lights inside."
"Okay, let's go right away." The staff rushed away in a hurry.
"Really, luckily you brought your ID, and you can still meet corpses when you go out to play. No wonder Team Chu said you have the physique of Conan." Fang Tianyun complained.
"What?" Tang Xi was taken aback.
"Whether you go or die." Fang Tianyun was confident.
"Wake up, he would have died long ago before I came." Tang Xi gave him a white look.
"Corpse, corpse?" Ou Jian finally came to his senses, screamed, and his face turned pale.
"Here, where is it?" Fang Tianyun pointed to the mummy lying in the corridor.
"Isn't that a prop!" Ou Jian was terrified.
"Then I have to ask the prop master of your haunted house." Fang Tianyun shrugged.
In less than half an hour, Yan Shifei led people to the scene.
Considering that today is Christmas Eve, there are too many people in the playground, and they are afraid of accidents, so the whole group came in casual clothes, and they didn't even drive the police car.
"Hello Captain Yan." Tang Xi stretched out her hand obediently.
Yan Shifei stared at her for a while, and finally shook hands with her.
"Why? Am I cannibalistic?" Tang Xi somehow felt disgusted.
"Aren't you looking for Chu Li directly?" Yan Shifei asked.
"He's on vacation." Tang Xi said without thinking.
"..." Yan Shifei was irritable.
Why don't I take a vacation? I'm still on a blind date, okay? One sentence, there is a case, the dead. None of the expensive dishes on my table were served! Pretty good girl, probably out of play again.
Of course, if Tang Xi knew what he was thinking, he would definitely comfort him: "It's impossible, it's easier to get a split sooner!"
"Okay, where's the corpse?" Yan Shifei asked.
"There." Tang Xi pointed casually.
Yan Shifei only glanced at it, and waved to the forensic doctor to conduct a preliminary autopsy.
"Team Yan, hello, hello, I'm the person in charge of this haunted house, and my surname is Wang." A sweaty fat man rushed over.
He received a call from an employee when he was playing with his little daughter on a roller coaster, and when he heard that someone had died in the haunted house, he was stunned.
"The Yan team, all the employees of the haunted house are here today. Do you want to call back those who are on vacation?" Fatty Wang asked while wiping his sweat.
"We're all waiting here." Yan Shifei told Old Wu to watch here, and then waved, "Xiao Tang, come in with me and tell us about the situation."
"Oh." Tang Xi blinked, followed him into the staff office at the exit.
Don't look at the strange things in the haunted house, but the layout of this office is very normal. From the window, it happens to be a Ferris wheel with brilliant lights.
"What's going on?" Yan Shifei asked, "Is the sufferer still there?"
"I said you criminal policemen, are your nerves thicker than a bucket?" Tang Xi wondered.
"What's wrong with saving police resources." Yan Shifei endured it, and said, "Do you want to serve as a consultant for my Xincheng branch? I'll give you a salary."
"No!" Tang Xi immediately refused, plausibly saying, "I'm a student! I want to take the college entrance examination!"
"Then wait until you finish the college entrance examination? Why don't you take the public security exam, and you can get recommended..."
Tang Xi rolled her eyes, in order not to listen to his ramblings, she swiped her hand and directly opened her yin and yang eyes for him.
"!!!" All Yan Shifei's words were stuffed back into his stomach.
What is that on the window sill? This man is bloody and has only half of his head. He is definitely not human!
"Didn't the news report a few days ago that a child was not allowed to go to the playground to play at home, saying that he was wasting his study time, so he took a safety hammer on the Ferris wheel in a fit of anger, smashed the glass at the highest point and jumped off?" Tang Xi glanced. After a glance, he said disapprovingly.
"It's... him?" Yan Shifei's finger pointing at the window trembled a little.
Seeing a bloody ghost as soon as you open your eyes is really a double visual and spiritual stimulation!
"Well, his obsession is to play in the playground once... When he gets tired of playing and the obsession disappears, it's almost time to dissipate." Tang Xi observed for a while and confirmed, "It will be almost in a week. This kind of ghost doesn't harm people, and it won't cause any trouble, so it's out of our control."
Yan Shifei rubbed his temples to calm himself down.
"Ask him yourself." Tang Xi waved his hand and released the soul from the mummy.
It was a young man in his twenties, with delicate features, wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses, and a gentle appearance. If he was alive, he should be quite popular with girls.
Yan Shifei opened the notebook, pulled out the pen case, and asked as usual: "Name? Origin?"
"Hi, officer, my name is Jianjian, that is Jianjian." The male ghost pushed his glasses nervously and said, "I am from Nanjiang City. I came to work in Jiangnan City last year as a puppeteer. Finally At the beginning, I was working with the crew at the film and television base to make a living, and later, when the haunted house was being rebuilt here in New Century, the construction period was short and the salary was high, so I came here."
"You...how did you die?" Yan Shifei hesitated for a moment before asking.
It's too awkward to have never asked "how did you die" after hearing the case for more than ten years.
"Killed." Jian Jian said with a wry smile, "Because it has been less than a week since the opening of the haunted house, I have a heavy task as a puppeteer, and I stay here almost every day to work overtime and rush to work until midnight. Give me the key. That night, when I heard someone open the door, I thought someone had forgotten to bring something, so I thought I could finish it quickly and go back to sleep. Who knew, I heard 'Why is someone', and I didn't have time to turn around. , I felt a pain in the back of my head, and I didn’t know anything.”
"So, you don't even know who killed you?" Yan Shifei was depressed.
Originally thought that if the deceased spoke, this kind of case could be solved on the spot.
"I don't know." Simply shook his head, "When I become conscious again, I will be in the state of a soul, and my corpse will be made into a mummy, piled up in the corner of the storage room where props are stored, and thrown together with a pile of waste products. I can't leave the scope of the haunted house, and no one can see my existence. Until today, that little girl, I found that her physique is very special, so I... "
"Okay, I see." Yan Shifei looked at his notepad, which was almost full of pages, and sighed.
"The phrase 'Why is there someone', have you heard this voice?" Tang Xi asked.
"I haven't heard of it." Jian Jian immediately said, "And the workers know that I work overtime every day, so they won't ask this question."
"External committing a crime... a year later..." Yan Shifei had one head and two big.
The most realistic thing is that it is almost the end of the year, if the case cannot be solved until next year, the bonuses of the whole team will definitely be deducted!
"The Yan team, you worked hard, I'm leaving." Tang Xi waved his hand.
"What will he do when you leave?" Yan Shifei was terrified.
He is not used to being with ghosts! What's more, yin and yang eyes have a time limit, what if he can't see.
"Sister Yun will definitely follow up when it comes to ghosts. What are you afraid of?" Tang Xi patted him on the shoulder with a smile, "Captain Yan, if you were willing to let me wash your memory last time, I wouldn't look for you anymore. Do you want to think about it?"
"Go away, don't touch my memory!" Yan Shifei glared at her.
"Even if I moved, can you remember?" Tang Xi stuck out her tongue and ran out briskly.
"Xixi, I'm sorry, I can't play with you anymore." Fang Tianyun looked depressed.
"It's okay, come back next time!" Tang Xi said, took out her mobile phone to check the time, a little lost interest, "Forget it, I'm going home."
Yan Shifei's roar came from the office. Judging by his posture, he probably wanted to ask the staff of the haunted house all night.
The half-removed mummy uncle held his headgear in one hand, crying in his heart.
It turned out to be the police. No wonder visiting a haunted house is like visiting a back garden. They have seen dead bodies, so are they still afraid of their actors
Tang Xi pushed open the iron gate and went out, taking the exit passage, which was an outdoor staircase built outside the house.
A few seconds later, there were hurried footsteps behind him.
"Hey, wait!" Ou Jian shouted.
Tang Xi ignored him, and lowered her hair while walking while texting on WeChat.
"Hey, I told you to wait!" Ou Jian jumped down the stairs in a few steps and reached out to grab her shoulder.
Although Tang Xi didn't look back, she seemed to have eyes on the back of her head. She lowered her shoulders, avoided his hand, and continued walking.
"Hey!" Ou Jian leaned on the railing at the corner of the stairs, jumped over the railing and landed in front of her, blocking the way, and said angrily, "Are you deaf? Why didn't you agree!"
"I'm not deaf, I don't call you hello." Tang Xi was expressionless, and finally lifted her eyes from the phone screen, "Also, this is the third floor, your movements are very dangerous, if you want to jump off the building, don't hurt me."
"..." Ou Jian's mouth twitched, and he said after a while, "Then what's your name?"
"The way to strike up a conversation is too old-fashioned." Tang Xi commented, and walked towards him, "Excuse me."
"I know there was an accident in the haunted house a year ago." Ou Jian said suddenly.
Tang Xi paused for a moment, then laughed: "Student, Team Yan is on top, if you have any clues, please report."
"He won't understand!" Ou Jian growled.
"I don't know what you know, but... classmate, please trust the police." Tang Xi sighed.
Ou Jian opened his mouth, but his eyes blurred, and then turned around, only to find that she had already passed him and walked to the next step.
So fast! When exactly
After Tang Xi reported her safety to her friends who came together on WeChat, she just walked to the gate of the playground when she heard a sound of explosion in the air, and the sky was full of fireworks, embellishing the dark blue night sky with colorful flowers.
There were bursts of screams and cheers in the playground, it seemed that the sudden closure of the haunted house did not attract the attention of tourists.
Tang Xi smiled and took a taxi.
This time is just right, when the fireworks show is over, there must be a lot of people who want to go home, especially parents with children, so it is difficult to take a taxi.
However, she originally thought that this case should have nothing to do with her, but who knew that she would be slapped in the face early the next morning.
"Entrustment?" Tang Xi asked while holding the phone while biting the sandwich made by Aunt Zhang.
"Yeah." Cheng Yihang's orderly voice came from the microphone, "Ou Jian asked Shi Rui for help in the middle of the night last night, and the two had a fight. They have always been at odds, which can make Ou Jian put down his face and ask Shi Rui for help , It can be seen that I am really in a hurry. But Shi Rui didn't know what he wanted from you, so he came to ask me."
"It's because of me." Tang Xi laughed.
"Then do you want to take it?" Cheng Yihang said, "To be honest, the monthly exam is almost here, and the final exam is coming soon, so it's better not to be distracted."
"I know, but... hey, forget it, let him come to me." Tang Xi thought for a while, and then changed her words, "It's not really troublesome for him, but it's annoying to keep pestering my friend. But the price is accepted."
"Okay, I'll tell him." Cheng Yihang agreed.
"What price?" Chu Li just came back from his morning run, and heard the last sentence when he opened the door.
"Chu team Chu, I can help you earn a vacation!" Tang Xi said again with a smile.
"Then I want to thank you?" Chu Li didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he endured it, but still couldn't hold back, "Why are there cases everywhere you go?"
"Generate income for the police station?" Tang Xi looked at him eagerly.
"Nonsense!" Chu Li gave her a chestnut and asked casually, "What happened to that Ou Jian?"
"I can probably guess, wait for him to come." Tang Xi's expression was very relaxed.
"It's the end of the term soon, so focus more on your grades," Chu Li urged.
"Understood, Uncle Chu~" Tang Xi answered vaguely with a piece of lettuce in his mouth.
"If you don't get into Jiangnan University, you can go directly to Public Security University for me and recommend it!" Chu Li was straightforward.
"That's impossible!" Tang Xi glared at him, gulping down a glass of milk, "I'm going to write the paper."
Chu Li couldn't help but sit down and slowly enjoy a hearty breakfast while flipping through the newspaper he bought.
Within an hour, the doorbell rang.
Chu Li glanced at Tang Xi's door, got up and opened it.
"Chu, Chu, Chu..." Ou Jian looked at him dumbfounded.
Chu Li stared at the bouquet of red roses in his hand with sharp eyes.
"Ah—" Ou Jian didn't know which muscle suddenly reacted, and quickly hid the bouquet of roses behind his back.
"Come in." Chu Li sneered and let the door open.
"Oh." Under the gaze of his death, Ou Jian still didn't have the guts to bring the flowers into the door, quietly put them on the corridor outside the door, and then walked in the door lightly.
"Come here?" Tang Xi opened the door and came out, dressed in home clothes, obviously not planning to talk too much, pointing directly to the sofa: "I'll give you half an hour."
"There are really dirty things in that haunted house!" Ou Jian's first sentence got straight to the point.
"Are you afraid?" Tang Xi was very surprised.
"Why am I not afraid?" Ou Jian couldn't help raising his voice.
"I heard people say that you like being a hero in a haunted house and never tire of saving the beauty. I thought... you must not be afraid." Tang Xi said truthfully.
"How can the heir of the Ou family have...fear of ghosts, such an absurd weakness." Ou Jian said after a moment of silence.
"Continue." Tang Xi nodded.
"A year ago, during the decoration of the haunted house, there was a fire." Ou Jian said, "At that time, a lot of newly built materials and props were burned. The puppeteer set the fire, because the man disappeared after the fire, probably because he knew he couldn’t afford it and didn’t even want his salary, so he ran away. My dad was too lazy to bother and was in a hurry, so he pinched his nose and admitted himself.”
"You should tell Captain Yan about this." Tang Xi said helplessly.
"Of course someone told him." Ou Jian said hastily, "What I want to say is the later... that is, after the haunted house was reopened, I went in for the first time to experience it. I saw it was easy! Nobody believed it."
"What do you mean by seeing?" Tang Xi's expression became serious.
"That's, that's..." Ou Jian took a long time to speak before saying, "He is floating! He must not be a person! I called him and he didn't respond. Later, the staff turned on all the lights in the haunted house and searched around. I found someone, and I even thought I was wrong! But, just last night, I actually saw a red-clothed female ghost in the haunted house! I can really see ghosts! So is there a connection between them?"
"..." Tang Xi's expression was very exciting, and he snapped his fingers by the way, "Is that the female ghost in red you saw?"
As soon as Ou Jian raised his head, he happened to see Su Huang lying behind Tang Xi's sofa and smiling at him. He couldn't help but screamed, and almost slipped on the hand, "Ghost! Ghost!"
"Sorry, because you want to scare me, so I will act first." Tang Xi said.
Ou Jian barely pulled out an extremely ugly smile. Because of some experience, he guessed that Tang Xi was "that kind of person" last night, but he didn't expect that the female ghost also belonged to her family!
"So, have you seen Jian Jian again?" Tang Xi asked.
Ou Jian shook his head.
Tang Xi thought for a while and said, "I'll give you two choices. First, I'll help you forget all these memories and study hard."
Ou Jian was taken aback for a moment, feeling relieved, but then asked, "What about the second one?"
"If you haven't been here today, why should you go?" Tang Xi said.
"Is there any difference between these two choices!" Ou Jian was irritable.
"It doesn't seem to be? There should be some." Tang Xi scratched her head.
"People like you are just, just..." Ou Jian was at the end of his words, and it took him a long time to say, "Gossip!"
"People like us?" Tang Xi caught his tongue and repeated it in doubt.
"Yeah, last time there was an old man who could clearly afford a Bentley, but his mind was flooded. He wanted to go into a haunted house when he was old. Manager Wang was afraid that he would be scared out of his wits and wouldn't let him in, so he told him Looks like a magic stick..." Ou Jian kept complaining.
"What are you talking about? An old man who drives a Bentley?" Tang Xi sternly shouted.
"Yes, yes." Ou Jian pouted, "Because that car is a global limited edition, I secretly took a group photo with myself."
"Send me the photo!" Tang Xi stood up abruptly.
"Ah?" Ou Jian was a little confused by her strong reaction.
"I'll be paid for the photos, and I'll accept your commission!" Tang Xi said.
"I haven't said yet..." Ou Jian looked at her in surprise.
"Isn't it just to find out the simple cause of death?" Tang Xi asked impatiently.
"Okay, I'll send you the photo later. I saved it in the computer." Ou Jian nodded.
"Now, tell me everything about that old man." Tang Xi sat back slowly.
"This..." Ou Jian scratched his head, a little embarrassed, "It's been almost a year, and I don't really remember what he said except for the car. Anyway... it seems like a 'pity' or something, Manager Wang thinks He came to find fault, and then politely coaxed him away."
Hearing this, Tang Xi couldn't help frowning.
Looking at the haunted house and saying "it's a pity", could it be that... The old man originally wanted to use simplicity as one of the ingredients of Gu poison to refine the soul, but for some reason, he gave up
"There is surveillance over the haunted house, do you want to see it?" Ou Jian said suddenly.
"It's been a year, and the monitoring is still there?" Tang Xi was surprised.
"Because of the special nature of the haunted house, the monitoring will be kept for more than one year, so it should still be there." Ou Jian said vaguely.
Of course Tang Xi knew what kind of "special" it was, the merchant's self-protection means, but now he helped her a lot, maybe this time he could find out his true face!
