Chapter 80 Threesome

But it was precisely because of this that Pang Lin was suspicious.Because this is already the sixth case in Tianyong City, according to the habit of Princess Baihua, the four flowers of plum, orchid, bamboo, and chrysanthemum are usually used as marks to commit the crime first. If there are more than four crimes committed in the same place, it will be Use other flowers instead.For example, the woman who was killed in the tofu shop before, the flower pattern left behind her is a blooming red peony.

The three of them returned to the small courtyard that Xu Mu rented out at the inn, and sat down around the stone table.Pang Lin expressed his doubts.

Su Keke said indifferently: "What's the matter. I guess the old monster has a bad memory, so he recalculated."

Su Keke's statement obviously did not convince Xu Mu and Pang Lin, but they also had no clue.

For the next two days, the murders continued.And it is the same as the second "Mei" case.The dead were all in the alleys, not in their own homes.The two deceased were both men, and each death was extremely tragic.The marks left are "lan" and "bamboo".

Eight consecutive days, eight homicides, eight dead.Four men and four women made the entire Tianyong City shrouded in a terrifying atmosphere.Even in broad daylight.There are also fewer pedestrians on the street.Even if there were people, they were in a hurry, as if they were worried about something.They all leave quickly.

Xu Mu has been very silent for the past two days. He has always believed in Princess Baihua too much in himself, but in the end he waited all night without talking about it, and was still brooding about being ridiculed by Su Keke for a while.Xu Mu felt a little regretful, if he could catch Princess Baihua in Yihonglou that day, then these things would not have happened.

Su Ke could see that Xu Mu was silent every day, and felt bored, so he stayed with Pang Lin all the time. The relationship between the two has grown a lot in these two days.

Xu Mu didn't sleep all day, but asked the clerk of the inn to find the topographic map of Tianyong City. He spread the map on the stone table in the yard, and then marked the places of death of the deceased in several cases.

Xu Mu looked at the places where the victims died. Although they all happened in the north of the city, he always felt something strange.At this time, Su Keke and Pang Lin just happened to walk in from the outside.

Su Keke saw Xu Mu lying on the stone table and didn't know what he was looking at, so he stepped forward curiously and asked, "Ugly, what are you looking at?"

Before Xu Mu could answer, Pang Lin beside Su Keke said, "Hey, Brother Xu, are you researching the places where the victims died?"

Xu Mu nodded and said, "Brother Pang, do you still remember that you once said that Princess Baihua suddenly changed her habits, and it is unusual to use plum, orchid, and bamboo as symbols?"

Pang Lin said: "That's right, and I found that the killing methods of the three recent victims are also very different. Of the five victims who were killed before, except for the last one, the lady of the tofu shop, who was discovered in advance, no one was killed. Both men and women were killed after being insulted. In these three recent cases, the victims were not insulted, but were tortured to death. It seems more like revenge, and the identities of these three people have not yet been known. "

Xu Mu nodded and said, "So, I have a bold hypothesis!"

Pang Lin stared into Xu Mu's eyes and said, "Brother Xu, do you want to say that there are two Princesses of Hundred Flowers appearing in Tianyong City?"

Xu Mu smiled and said: "It seems that brother Pang also has the same idea as me, otherwise he wouldn't blurt it out."

Pang Lin shook his head and said, "But, this should be impossible. Who would pretend to be Princess Baihua to commit crimes?"

Xu Mu said: "It's not impossible. Didn't Brother Pang say that Princess Baihua might be more than one person, but an organization. Since it might be an organization, could there be some problems within them, and two gangs would end up People are on the bar?"

Pang Lin thought for a while and said, "Well, what Brother Xu said is reasonable, but all this is just our speculation, and there is no evidence yet."

Xu Mu suddenly remembered something, and said: "I remembered, the following three cases happened after I met the person who claimed to be Princess Baihua. Brother Pang, do you think the latter three cases will happen?" He did it?"

Pang Lin nodded and said, "Well, it's very possible, so they are fighting among themselves?"

Su Keke interrupted suddenly: "Then which of these two groups of people do you think is the real Princess Baihua? I guess the one who appeared later must be a fake one. I have seen that guy before, and his age is only 30 to [-] years old." How could he be an old monster who has roamed the continent for decades?"

Xu Mu glanced at her, and said: "You're really stupid. I already said that Princess Baihua might be part of a gang. Since it's a group of people fighting among themselves, how can there be any distinction between true and false? Naturally, they are all true."

Su Keke heard Xu Mu scolding herself as an "idiot", so she pointed at Xu Mu angrily and said, "You..."

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Pang Lin hurriedly said, "It doesn't matter which one is true and which one is false, what we need to do now is to find them and prevent anyone from being killed. Brother Xu, do you have any clues?"

Xu Mu nodded and said: "I carefully looked at the places where the deceased were killed, and I discovered some patterns."

Xu Mu's words immediately aroused the interest of the two of them, and Su Keke stopped thinking about being scolded, and asked eagerly, "Ugly, what did you find?"

Xu Mu pointed to the map on the stone table, and said, "Look, the places where the previous victims were killed were all at home. This is the second point, in fact, all of them died in the northern part of the city. And the other three Although the place of death was also in the northern part of the city, it was at the edge of the northern part of the city, and they all died in the alleys. Therefore, I have a bold assumption that the three deceased were the ones who died in the city of Tianyong before. The 'Princess Hundred Flowers' who committed the crime."

After hearing this, Su Keke and Pang Lin looked at Xu Mu in surprise, no matter how they thought about it, they would never have such an idea.Pang Lin asked: "Brother Xu, is there any basis for your statement? Or is this just your guess?"

Xu Mu smiled and said, "Of course this is my guess. As for the basis. Brother Pang, you know the legend of Princess Baihua quite well. Do you think there have been any changes in the legend of Princess Baihua over the years?"

Pang Lin thought for a while, and then suddenly said: "Brother Xu said that, I really feel that there is a difference. When Princess Baihua first appeared, although some young boys and girls were insulted by her, no one was insulted by her. After a period of time, among the cases committed by Princess Baihua, all the victims disappeared without exception, and only the Baihua mark was left on the scene to prove that it was what Princess Baihua said.
