Walking out the door, Tang Xi glanced at the red rose with a bundle of skins abandoned in the corner, with subtle eyes.
"Hey, don't get me wrong! I, I, I, I really bought it casually!" Ou Jian shook his head quickly, he was just used to coaxing girls, and he bought a bunch of red roses without even thinking about bringing gifts at the door—if he had known it would be I would rather buy a fruit basket when I met the serious case team leader of the Municipal Bureau at a girl's house!
"Have you ever been in love?" Tang Xi asked suddenly.
"..." Ou Jian stared at her silently.
"Got it." Tang Xi waved his hand and walked into the elevator.
As for the roses, lying quietly in the corner is beautiful alone.
It's really: I thought you were a sea king, but I didn't expect you to be a pure white flawless little white flower.
cheat feelings!
Downstairs parked a red Ferrari, a two-seater sports car.
Tang Xi's face was full of black lines. Last time, she complained that driving a supercar in the main city with a speed limit of 40 yards was an idiotic act. No, there is one in front of me!
"Get in the car." Ou Jian helped her open the co-pilot's door, "Although the main city is slow, but in the new city, the roads are wide and there are few cars, so it's quite cool."
"Do you have a driver's license?" Tang Xi confirmed with distrust.
"I'm nineteen years old, already an adult!" Ou Jian roared with a blushing face.
"Oh." Tang Xi just got into the car and fastened her seat belt.
"Don't worry, my driving skills are absolutely fine." Ou Jian said confidently.
"It doesn't matter, as long as you can drive in a straight line, basically there will be no accidents." Tang Xi said.
"Why?" Ou Jian was puzzled.
"Didn't you see that the cars next to you are far away from you?" Tang Xi said quite naturally, "I'm afraid I won't be able to pay for it if I get scratched!"
Ou Jian gritted his teeth... Why can someone speak so irritatingly!
"Speaking of which, you have a good relationship with Jian Jian? Why do you want to investigate the cause of his death?" Tang Xi asked suddenly after adjusting his seat belt.
Hearing this, Ou Jian didn't speak for a long time, but the foolish expression on his face darkened, and even his yellow hair seemed to lose its luster.
"Can't you say that?" Tang Xi was puzzled.
"It's not impossible to say." Ou Jian stepped on the accelerator, parked the car in front of the yellow line, looked at the red light at the intersection of the four forks, and said after a while, "I have a sister who is three years older than me. "
From his words, Tang Xi sensed a bit of a wealthy family's dog-blood drama.
Sure enough, what Ou Jian was talking about was a third-rate romance drama.
Ou Jian's elder sister, Ou Jing, is a well-protected daughter of a famous family. She is pure and kind, but she is strong and assertive in her heart. She is probably chased after by big boys since she was a child. Instead, he fell in love with Jian Jian, a puppeteer who came to work in Jiangnan City. Of course, no one would be optimistic about the relationship between the poor boy and Bai Fumei from the very beginning. The only one in the family who was not against him was Ou Jian.
It's just not anti-inch. Ou Jian doesn't like simplicity, but his sister likes it, so even if he is dissatisfied, he will hold back, and sometimes he will help pay off his parents, or tip off the news.
Until a year ago, the haunted house caught fire and simply disappeared.
Everyone agreed that it was simple arson, and they were afraid of being responsible for the fire, so they absconded overnight without even asking for wages. However, Ou Jing felt that Jian Jian would not just run away without saying a word, and she never contacted her afterwards. No reply to WeChat, no phone calls, Moments and Weibo have never been updated since that day, as if this person suddenly disappeared completely from the world. However, no matter what she said, no one would believe her.
Ou Jing still doesn't believe in simple arson, thinking that something must have happened to him, and has been traveling all over the country this year, secretly looking for... Anyway, the Ou family is rich, so it is not a problem to support their daughter to travel around the world, and the parents still think that their daughter goes out to play It's also good to play and relax, maybe you will forget the last relationship when you meet a boy you like.
Only Ou Jian knew that his sister had never given up, so he didn't dare to tell his sister that he seemed to see a simple ghost. What if the person really died and my sister couldn't bear it!
"So, you think that mummy in the haunted house is simple?" Tang Xi concluded.
"If it's simple, it can all be explained. In the fire a year ago, he must have burned to death." Ou Jian said.
Tang Xi supported his forehead and said after a long while: "Student, fire can't burn people like this, and they should have rotted long ago!"
"Then what should we do?" Ou Jian was startled.
"You need to use a professional spray gun, the flame temperature is much higher than ordinary fire." Tang Xi explained patiently, "Scorching the skin on the surface of the corpse a little bit, dehydrating it, and post-processing, it is not something ordinary people can master Technology."
"Props master?" Ou Jian was not stupid, so he blurted out.
"You can guess this kind of thing. How could Team Yan not think of it? He must have started investigating the prop master by now." Tang Xi said, "And if the identity of the mummy is really simple, it should be clear by now."
Ou Jian pursed his lips, with a troubled expression on his face.
"I think you shouldn't make decisions for your sister. No one likes to decide whether to tell me the truth in the name of 'for my own good'." Tang Xi said seriously.
"I... Got it." Ou Jian sighed.
The car got out of the main urban area, started to accelerate, and finally had a bit of a supercar look.
"Doo--" Suddenly, a similarly flamboyant sports car drove into the side lane, honked its horn twice and then accelerated. It seemed that it realized that they hadn't followed, and slowed down again.
"There have always been drag racers on this road." Ou Jian explained, and then hastily added, "But I haven't participated in it."
"Why do you have to explain to me?" Tang Xi wondered.
"I..." Ou Jian was speechless.
Yeah, why is he in such a hurry to explain? Uh... I don't know why, this girl is two years younger than him, but I always feel... a little afraid of her.
"Brother, can you do it?" The window of the sports car next to him was lowered, and a non-mainstream young man was smoking a cigarette. When he saw Tang Xi on the co-pilot, he yelled strangely again, "Yo Yo Yo, with such a punctual Girl, why don't you show off? How about trying to make a splash? Just... "
"You drive as usual." Tang Xi said suddenly.
"Ah? Oh." Ou Jian responded, looking forward without even glancing over.
Tang Xi started to shrink the ground into an inch, but deliberately slowed down.
So in the eyes of the people behind, this Ferrari just turned on its full horsepower and disappeared.
"Fuck! That car has been modified!" The non-mainstream youth was dumbfounded.
"What is that... hey?" Ou Jian was just halfway through his shocked words, when he suddenly felt a little dazed, "What do I want to say?"
"Just now Cun Mian drove past an antique car, you let me see that?" Tang Xi said casually.
"Huh?" Ou Jian thought for a while, and suddenly realized, "It seems to be true. I saw that car once on TV, and it has been out of print for a long time!"
Tang Xi directly ignored the thousands of words of introduction from Balabala behind him, touched the bracelet, and silently thanked Chang'an.
Sure enough, Xie Changan is a must-have little angel for traveling at home, killing people and setting fires!
After driving all the way to the entrance of the New Century Amusement Park, Ou Jian stopped talking, there is no boy who doesn't like cars.
Today is Christmas, and there are people coming and going in the playground, which is very lively.
Ou Jian took Tang Xi through the staff passage, and soon avoided the crowd and sex performances, and came to the haunted house.
There was a sign of "Closing Business for Rectification" at the entrance of the haunted house, and there were plainclothes guards inside, which basically did not affect the operation of the playground. The Xincheng branch office was considered very humane.
However, there is only such a large playground in Jiangnan City, and today is Christmas again. If the playground is closed, it will be too disappointing for the children.
"You can't enter here." The plainclothes at the door blocked people directly.
"I'm the boss!" Ou Jian argued.
"Then you can't enter casually, just wait a moment." The plainclothes was very firm.
"Xiao Zhang, it's me." Tang Xi stepped forward.
"Uh...it's Consultant Tang!" Xiao Zhang was stunned for a moment before he realized, and his smile became warm, "Why, are you looking for Team Yan?"
"Last night's case, there are some clues, is Team Yan still there?" Tang Xi asked with a smile.
"Yes, yes, go in! Team Yan is in the warehouse." Xiao Zhang said quickly.
Ou Jian was depressed, walked a few steps, and asked in doubt: "Consultant?"
"I'm a consultant of the serious crime team of the Municipal Bureau." Tang Xi replied.
"Then Team Chu?"
"There is no conflict between Team Chu being my boss and my guardian?" Tang Xi took it for granted, "There is no rule in the Municipal Bureau that a family cannot work in the same department, not to mention that I am a non-staff consultant."
Ou Jian: ...
There are no windows in the haunted house, even in broad daylight, there is no light inside, but at this moment all the lights are turned on, and the place that was originally eerie in the dark looks like an abandoned building without any traces of darkness. Haunted house feeling.
"In some domestic haunted houses, the scenery is arranged like a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. It's scary, but our house is mainly about creating an atmosphere." Ou Jian said with some pride, "In this place, turning on and off the lights is absolutely impossible. Inch is two concepts."
"It's pretty good." Tang Xi nodded.
"..." Ou Jian suddenly remembered that this was the woman who scared away the actors in his family, and suddenly felt as if he was feeling lonely, and his whole body was listless.
There's no need to go up to the third floor, Yan Shifei is currently rummaging through the warehouse hidden behind the set on the first floor.
"Captain Yan, our props have always been placed here." Fatty Wang stood behind and said with a sad face, "A few days ago, there was a mummified corpse on the third floor that was damaged by an over-excited tourist, so I called someone to come I moved one from the warehouse to use, and I didn’t think there was anything different about this mummy at the time, who would have thought that it was a real corpse!”
"Captain Yan." Tang Xi walked over.
"Yo, here to help?" Yan Shifei raised his eyebrows.
"Have you found out the identity of the corpse?" Tang Xi asked.
"I found out, it's Jian Jian, the puppeteer who disappeared after the fire a year ago." Yan Shifei said, "When Jian Jian first came to Jiangnan City, he donated bone marrow. Although it took a little effort, the DNA ratio just now succeeded. gone."
It is difficult to directly determine the identity of an unknown mummy, but if you know the answer in advance, it is not easy to make up a reasonable logic to verify it? This is also the reason why Yan Shifei wanted to kidnap Tang Xi.
In criminal cases, who knows the most
Of course it was the dead!
Tang Xi's ability to make the dead speak is better than that of a forensic doctor!
"I need to check the surveillance of the haunted house." Tang Xi said directly.
"Is it related to the case?" Yan Shifei looked very interested.
"Maybe there is, you'll know when you see it." Tang Xi replied a little cautiously.
"Let's go together!" Yan Shifei waved his hand, motioning for Fatty Wang to lead the way.
"The monitoring room is right next door." Fatty Wang looked at Tang Xi curiously, but he didn't dare to say anything, and led them to the next door.
There are three huge display screens hanging on the wall, and the screen skin is divided into small pieces, showing pictures of various scenes of the haunted house. Even if Pi went out of business for rectification, the monitoring is still fulfilling its mission conscientiously.
"What month and date did the fire start?" Ou Jian frowned and thought hard.
"December 29th!" Fatty Wang hurriedly reminded.
"Oh, then you call out the monitoring four days after the fire, um, January 3rd of this year." Ou Jian ordered.
"Okay." Fatty Wang looked puzzled, but the police didn't respond to what his little boss said, and didn't dare to question him, so he quickly sat down and looked through the documents.
The monitoring files are arranged in chronological order, one folder per month, one file per day, and the playback on January 3 was quickly found.
"Our monitoring has been maintained for one year. Fortunately, there are still a few days left. If it is a week later, I'm afraid that day's monitoring will be deleted." Fatty Wang has nothing to say.
"Fast forward, about two or three o'clock in the afternoon." Ou Jian said again.
When Fatty Wang heard this, he clicked and held the progress bar and dragged it back.
"Stop!" Tang Xi shouted.
Fatty Wang was so frightened that his hands shook, he slid the mouse, and just clicked on the red cross, closing the file.
"..." Tang Xi was speechless.
"I can't afford an inch." Fatty Wang sneered, and quickly reopened the file, dragging the progress.
"Stop." Tang Xi narrowed his eyes.
At the frame of the picture, I saw an old man in a Chinese tunic suit standing at the gate of the haunted house. He had white hair and was vigorous.
"Is this person suspected?" Yan Shifei leaned over, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.
"Manager Wang, I'm sorry to trouble you, you go out first." Tang Xi said.
"Oh, yes, yes." Fatty Wang actually didn't want to get involved, but he was the actual person in charge of the haunted house's operation, and he couldn't even hide from him. Now it's more desirable to let him avoid him.
"Hmm..." Tang Xi turned her head and said again, "Student, the following is a police secret, you want to go out too?"
"You cross the river and tear down the bridge!" Ou Jian said angrily.
Tang Xi just looked at him innocently.
"I... I'll wait for you outside." Oujian suddenly lost his temper, and walked out with his head bowed, like a golden hair abandoned by the fur owner.
Tang Xi sat down on the seat vacated by Fatty Wang, and zoomed in on the picture by himself.
"This person looks familiar." Yan Shifei pondered.
"Have Team Yan seen it?" Tang Xi was stunned.
"It seems not." Yan Shifei thought for a while, then shook his head, and said with some surprise, "I have a good memory, and I feel familiar, but I don't know it. This kind of situation is relatively rare. It may be... when did I accidentally meet , have an impression in your mind?"
Tang Xi touched the bracelet and asked softly, "Yueyue, is that him?"
In order to identify the target, she put little friend Yueyue into a soul-raising bead and brought it out today.
The little girl appeared beside her, looked at it seriously for a while, nodded, tugged at her sleeve, and whispered: "This is the grandpa!"
"Are you sure?" Tang Xi raised an eyebrow.
"Yeah!" The little girl nodded vigorously.
"Okay, let's go back." Tang Xi stretched out his hand and took her back.
"Who are you talking to? Your ghost?" Yan Shifei's yin and yang eyes have expired and he can't see Yueyue, just seeing her talking to herself, which is a bit weird.
"Don't worry, Captain Yan, this person has nothing to do with your current case," Tang Xi said.
"What case is that related to?" Yan Shifei didn't know whether he was disappointed or something else, so he asked casually.
"The Yang Qingrong case." Tang Xi said.
"!!!" Yan Shifei suddenly stood up straight, his mind full of exclamation marks.
"This person was introduced by the fake Yang Qingrong, the Feng Shui master who built the fish pond for Emperor Jin!" Tang Xi said firmly.
"What did you say?" Fang Tianyun just heard the last sentence when she walked in the door.
"Sister Yun, there's a new clue for that dead end case." Tang Xi turned to look at her.
Fang Tianyun trotted over, put one hand on her shoulder, bent down, leaned in front of the screen, looked at it for a while, and said: "You don't look like a bad person, hey, you really don't look like you!"
"Since when are there so few pious beasts?" Tang Xi disagreed, taking screenshots, saving videos, and importing them into his mobile phone.
"You want to continue following the Yang Qingrong case?" Fang Tianyun asked.
"Of course, no one can play me all the way." Tang Xi snorted coldly.
From the moment she took off the seal in the haunted house, she was doomed to stand side by side with this person, and she didn't feel that that person still didn't know her existence.
There is no way out for a long time.
What's more, in these cases, with Chu Li's character, the truth must be found out, and since they are family members, they should share the burden of the wind and rain.
"Ah, my case is not over yet." Fang Tianyun said regretfully, "Do you want me to apply to the higher authorities and then send someone over to help?"
"No, we can handle it now, but people we don't know well can't cooperate well." Tang Xi refused.
"Well, tell me when you need it." Fang Tianyun didn't insist, and said, "It's an inch, we copied a few more copies of the spiritual power gun and Yin mirror you made for Team Chu last time, but the Yin mirror is okay. , the spiritual power gun just can’t do the 20-odd bursts of Team Chu’s, it’s not bad if it can be fired three or four times, Xixi, how did you do it.”
"It's not the gun's problem, it's just that the people who charge the spiritual power gun don't have enough spiritual power." Tang Xi couldn't laugh or cry.
"Huh?" Fang Tianyun was stunned and said after a while, "But it was an elder from our department who charged the spiritual power gun... that Xixi, how strong is your spiritual power?"
"Is this..." Tang Xi hesitated for a moment. She didn't feel very embarrassed to praise herself so seriously, so she could only vaguely say, "It's probably very strong... Ah, if you make too much of that spiritual power gun, give me a spare one." of."
"Okay, I'll get it to you in two days." Fang Tianyun smiled, "This is your design and inspiration, and you should thank you for agreeing to let us use it."
"This is for ordinary people without spiritual power. You need it?" Tang Xi was puzzled.
"You have high spiritual power, so of course you can't feel our suffering." Fang Tianyun glanced at her and said helplessly, "What should I do if I meet a powerful ghost when I go out on a mission, and if my spiritual power is exhausted, I can't beat it? Now there is a spiritual gun This thing can be fully charged when it is safe, so that even if it loses its spiritual power, it will not be without the power to protect itself."
"That's true." Tang Xi nodded.
"The Yin mirror and spiritual power gun you mentioned are the things that Team Chu used to see and injure ghosts?" Yan Shifei said suddenly.
"Yes." Fang Tianyun nodded, "Xixi designed it for Team Chu."
"How can I apply for one?" Yan Shifei asked bluntly.
"Ah? This..." Fang Tianyun was stunned and said after a while, "Then I have to apply to the higher authorities. After all, under normal circumstances, we cannot allow ordinary people to participate in this kind of battle."
"Captain Chu..." Yan Shifei didn't give up.
It doesn't make sense that Chu Li can, but he can't.
"Captain Yan, that's different." Tang Xi said in a deep voice, "Because I caused a little trouble and implicated Captain Chu, so..."
"Him?" Yan Shifei looked at the screen.
"En." Tang Xi responded.
Yan Shifei was silent.
On the surface, the 129 homicide case has been solved, and there are quite a lot of cases in the Xincheng branch. He really has no reason to participate in the case of the city bureau.
"Sister Yun, Jianjian, still can't think of any useful clues?" Tang Xi changed the subject.
"Hey, I've never seen him so stupid." Fang Tianyun complained with a bitter face, "You don't know, if he didn't have an obsession in his heart, he might have dissipated long ago, and he couldn't even kill himself There's not much resentment at all."
"Obsession, girlfriend?" Tang Xi smiled.
"How do you know?" Fang Tianyun was taken aback.
Tang Xi retells the story Ou Jian told.
"That's it..." Fang Tianyun sighed a little, "It's such a pity to have a little lover."
"Anyway, I'll ask the Ou family to inform Ou Jing to return to Jiangnan City." Yan Shifei said, and went out to make a phone call.
"The current police officers are so courageous." Fang Tianyun sighed softly.
Tang Xi shrugged, remembering that Chu Li dared to fight even Yun Qi... shuddered.
"It's too late. Send me a photo. I'll take it back to the ministry and ask someone to check to see if I can find out his identity. My brother is idle recently." Fang Tianyun said.
"Okay." Even if she didn't say it, Tang Xi would still mention it. In the world of metaphysics, her connections are far inferior to Fang Tianyun's. What's more, there is state support behind the special department. No matter who or what to find, it will be easier and faster than her own.
Later, she forwarded two more copies, one to Chu Li, and the other... to Cheng Huaying who was thousands of kilometers away.
Tang Xi always felt that Cheng Huaying had a wide network of contacts and could go abroad, not to mention that Cheng Huaying had seen the runes on the back of the seal, so he was not considered irrelevant, and saved the trouble of explaining.
Speaking of which, Cheng Huaying sent her a wechat message on her birthday saying that she had sent her a birthday present, but it took half a month to receive the express mail, and she almost forgot about it. Then she looked at the delivery address... Well, she didn't even know where that place was on the world map! Anyway, it is definitely not possible in China.
In the express mail was a dilapidated book with many combinations of runes that she had never seen before, and she did not know where she got it from.
Although she has only roughly figured out the rules of one set of runes after researching until now, she is also very inspired.
It has to be said that Cheng Huaying's gift-giving this time really touched her itching spot, and the unhappiness of the conflict because of her ghost control earlier was completely eliminated.
The author has something to say: I'm so sad, is this a new draw for the New Year in Jinjiang? Hundreds of bottles of nutrient solution were suddenly missing! It wasn't much at first, it was all saved up by the little cuties. Jinjiang, you still haven't returned it to me!
