Chapter 38(2/6)
Liu Chu also saw it, "Boss Dai is in danger."
Huang Dan said, "What other murders in the town have not been found out?"
Liu Chu said no, "No, there was a murder case that was not solved, it was Widow Li."
After a while, Huang Dan saw Liu Chu saying in unison, "It's Boss Dai!"
When I was discovered, I was in the alley, with a pair of embroidered shoes on the ground and a few sticky skins to determine the identity of the deceased.
Could it be that the demon ate Boss Dai there and accidentally dropped a few pieces of skin? As for Widow Li's embroidered shoes, they fell there accidentally.
They will subconsciously combine the two things together, and perhaps they will go in the direction from the beginning.
Widow Li's disappearance may not be the same as these cases.
Through this period of speculation and investigation, Huang Shan can already judge that the demon is not omnipotent and cannot be transformed into a human form at will. There are restrictions and certain conditions are required to meet, otherwise he will not only transform into Boss Dai in these few months.
Without thinking too much, Huang Dan was afraid that the demon would change his identity, so he seized the time to call Mr. System in his heart. A task screen appeared in front of him. He filled in Boss Dai's name and a golden seal with a "completed" stamp on the screen.
The mission was completed, Huang Dan was still in the same place, in this world.
He remembered that the last world was separated after experiencing loneliness, and he didn't know what was waiting for him to experience this world.
The people in the open space were not dispersed, and they were all supported by fear, and their bodies were in the air, and the feeling of suffocation became stronger and stronger.
"It's a demon. The Tian family colluded with the demon. What should we do?"
"Look for it, look for Captain Liu!"
"No matter how powerful the Captain Liu is, he is also a mortal. How can he fight with a demon? The demon can eat people--"
"No, I can't stay in town anymore. I want to go, the farther the better, I can't come back."
"I'll go, too, go find my second aunt."
"Where are you going? The people from the Tian family are still alive. If he wants to avenge his family, it will be useless wherever we go."
"What kind of revenge? We were doing the way for heaven back then!"
"That's right, if we were one step later, the whole town would be destroyed in the hands of the Tian family."
Everyone was quiet for a while and started talking again, and they were all panicked and were in a state of silence.
Huang Dan and Liu Chu turned around and left from the base of the wall.
Before they could return to the mansion, Simao rushed over to report that the person had been caught.
At the foot of the mountain to the west, there was a small courtyard, and the atmosphere was tense.
The constables are all big and rude men and have seen many scenes. They stood at the gate of the Gate of Hell for several times, but now they are facing a soft and weak little girl with a high look on their faces.
Instinctively I feel it is weird, but I can't say it.
A detective licked his hair dry and said, "Are you here?"
The one who stood on the door stretched out his neck and saw no one.
Compared to the alerts, Juan'er was very calm. She squatted on the ground with her knees, her face buried in her arms, looking very thin and without any aggression.
After a moment or so, the detective at the door shouted excitedly, "Boss is here!"
The others' hands holding the knife were loosened, and their hearts were wet with sweat. It was embarrassing to say it. They were all scared by a little girl.
Liu Chu asked his brothers to go out and guard them outside. He and Huang Dan entered the house.
It was getting darker and the coolness of the rain could be smelled in the air, and it was almost time for it.
Huang Dan said, "Juan'er, I asked you to leave the town, why are you still here?"
Juan'er, who was squatting there, did not respond.
Huang Shan glanced at Liu Chu and asked with his eyes.
Liu Chu leaned against the door with a knife in his arms, raised his head slightly, and signaled him to continue.
Huang Dan sat down on the chair in the room, "Not only did you not leave the town, you also did not leave the Song Mansion. The rock sugar pear water I drank in the kitchen that day was cooked by you. You kept peeping at me somewhere and knew that I would go to the kitchen to check your affairs."
He was confused, "But why did you cook pear water for me? You know, doing this will arouse my suspicion and expose you."
Liu Chu said quietly, "Young Master Song, why? People like you."
Yellow List, “…”
Juan'er still didn't respond.
He signaled his man not to be jealous. Huang Dan looked over and his eyes were on the girl in the corner, without any malice, "Juan'er, you can talk."
Juan'er's shoulders trembled slightly.
Huang Dan was testing, and looking at the girl's reaction in that moment, it seemed to be true. "When doing things in a wealthy family, muteness is the most reassuring and trusting for the masters, because that mouth can never say a word."
"If you want to get close to me and ask grandma to arrange for me to be a maid, you have to be a mute person, you can only be."
Juan'er kept silent.
Huang Dan said to himself, "Juan'er, why did you want to enter the Song family and approach me?"
Liu Chu opened his mouth and was warned by a look. He curled his lips and let out a hum from his nose.
There were three people in the room, only one voice.
Huang Dan didn't ask a word from Juan'er. His eyes flashed, and he said inconsistently, "Since you have been in the town, I guess you know what happened in the morning. It's said that the scholar is a descendant of the Tian family. Everyone tied him to the pillar and wanted to burn him to death, but..."
After a pause, Huang Shan said, "Just a while ago, the scholar was rescued by a mysterious person."
Juan'er's fingers holding her sleeves loosened.
Huang Dan caught it, and he said curiously, "Why did the scholar be a descendant of the Tian family have to burn him to death? Juan'er, do you know the reason?"
Juan'er didn't move any more.
Huang Shan looked at Liu Chu.
Liu Chu realized the profound meaning of his wife, and he sneered, "I heard from the Taoist priest that the scholar had evil things on his body. If he didn't burn it to death, he would harm the people in the town."
Huang Dan sang an opera with him, "How come something happened to the Tian family? Is that the reason?"
Liu Chu intentionally raised his voice and said coldly, "It is said that since the Tian family came to the town, the disaster has begun. They are still alive!"
Juan'er suddenly looked up, revealing the emotions in her eyes, with hatred, hatred, and grief.
She realized that she had no time to cover up.
At this point, Juan'er understood that the two men in the room were deliberately saying that what the Tian family was not, which made her reveal her flaws and she was fooled.
Huang Dan and Liu Chu had eye contact, and he took out the jade pendant, "Juan'er, what do you think this is?"
Juan'er's pupil shrank slightly when she saw the jade pendant shaking in the air.
"This jade pendant is a scholar's thing. I saw him wearing it on his neck." Huang Dan held the jade pendant. "Captain Liu has found out that it was bought by Mr. Tian at a high price. He took it out in public at his son's 100-day banquet. It was a gift for him."
Tamo caressed the jade pendant, "The word Anzhi is engraved on it."
Juan'er's eyelids moved.
Huang Dan said, "Grandma said you are illiterate, but you can write these two words. I once accidentally saw a small piece of shredded paper in the study. You probably couldn't help but pick up your pen and wrote a few words. After writing, it burned it. I didn't notice that a shredded paper floated under the desk, and it was written on it. "
Juan'er's breath became disordered.
Huang Dan said, "I didn't think much at the time, just thinking that you were afraid that my grandma would have any objections to you, so I hid it down. Now I know that you seem to be able to write, but also paint."
"I drew a lotus flower before, but I felt unsatisfied and asked you to throw it away. But the constable found it in an abandoned room in Mingyuan. I remember that there was only one dragonfly on the painting, but one more."
Juan'er's face did not change any expression, and her hanging hands were held together.
Liu Chu's face was tense and it was not very good-looking.
When I received this line of report, I almost couldn't help but pick out the extra dragonfly on the drawing.
He had never seen the paintings of this young master. He didn't expect to take it first and secretly collect them, drawing two dragonflies in pairs.
After a few moments of silence, Huang Dan lit his index finger on the table a few times, "Juan'er, tell me that the scholar is Mr. Tian's son, where are you?"
Juan'er doesn't speak.
Huang Dan said, "The housekeeper of the Ye family told me that when he was dealing with the Tian family's corpses, he found that two were missing, one was a scholar and the other was you."
Juan'er's face was blurred.
"Mrs. Tian is a Bodhisattva-minded person. After coming to the town, she often provides relief to the poor and donated incense money to the temple. Once she came back from the temple, she rescued someone on the road and brought him to the Tian family to recuperate. After living there for a while, a big fire broke out. He finally came back and rescued you and the scholar."
Huang Dan looked straight over, "That person is a demon, right?"
Juan'er still didn't sound, and her mouth was even harder to pry open than Huang Dan expected.
Liu Chu and Huang Dan started to sing double acts again.
His tone was full of impatientness, "Mr. Song, according to my opinion, lock up the person first and ask carefully. No matter how much things you hide, you will spit it out little by little."
Huang Dan frowned and disagreed, "Juan'er is my person, and her business should be left to my Song family to take care of."
"You don't have to do a show in front of me."
There was an extra sound in the house, which was nice and clear, "I know your secret."
