My wife is not a demon

……

The two climbed over the wall and entered the courtyard.

Weeds grew in the gaps between the green bricks on the floor.

Stepping into the inner house, you can see wild smoke and weeds everywhere. On the dust-covered doors and windows, the wood is half-rotten, and the locks and keys are rusted.

"You said that this house was once bought by a big merchant, and then moved out half a year ago? Why did you move out?"

Chen Mu waved his hand to disperse some mosquitoes, and asked in doubt.

Wang Fafa only said two words: "Haunted."

Chen Mu paused.

A gust of cool wind blew, making his temples flutter, and an inexplicable chill slowly spread from the soles of his feet to his back.

Suddenly, he remembered the scene when he was brought into the coffin by the ghost bride.

The disgusting smell of blood.

Cold fingers.

Rotting corpses.

Mixed with piercing soft voice.

"grown ups?"

Seeing Chen Mu's expression was different, Wang Fafa was a little puzzled. "What's the matter? Did you find anything?"

"Cough-cough-"

Chen Mu came to his senses, coughed twice and laughed, "It's okay, I remembered something, let's go."

Hemp sellers, as a young man in the 21st century, he is still afraid of the ghost of a hammer.

If the ghost bride dares to come, I will let her take maternity leave!

Wang Fafa went on to say: "At that time, the case was handled by the Haotian Department of the Zhenma Division, but the strange thing is that they didn't find any resentful spirits and ghosts, and they squatted on purpose for a few days, but still didn't get anything."

"So there is no?"

Wang Fafa shook his head: "At least I didn't find out. Later, the merchant couldn't stand it anymore, so he moved, and this yard was abandoned."

"That's it."

Chen Mu felt relieved.

Zhenmensi's Haotian Department is still very strong. Since they didn't find out, it is very likely that it was a prank.

This kind of situation used to happen often in the big family's house, and it was nothing more than family property fighting.

Moreover, the Haotian Department really didn't find out that the top demon hunters from the Juntian Department will also show up at that time. After all, demons and ghosts are not allowed to run rampant under the feet of the Son of Heaven.

Thinking of this, Chen Mu completely relaxed.

Along the curved corridor, the two came to a man-made pond.

Sure enough, as Chen Mu said, the pond that has not been cleaned for half a year has long been covered with green algae, exuding a rancid smell.

Some dead fish can be seen floating in the duckweed weeds.

"Make an assumption first."

Chen Mu pinched his nose and stood in front of a railing, and said calmly: "If Du Juan was pushed down by someone, this position is the most likely. If Du Juan jumped off by himself, it should be at that position..."

Chen Mu pointed to the side of the corridor near the door.

There is a step there.

Both sides of the pond are covered by dense trees and weeds, and there is a rockery at the corner. There are only these two open areas where you can move.

Judging from the terrain area, there can only be one person on the other side of the steps.

Even if someone threw her sideways into the water, the position would have changed, and there were definitely bruises and scars on the woman.

It's a pity that Chen Mu didn't see it during the autopsy, indicating that there were no signs of struggle.

Of course, this is an era where demons practiced rampantly. Maybe Du Juan was fascinated, or bewitched, etc.

It depends on the results of the continued investigation before making a decision.

Wang Fafa stared at the pond and asked, "If it's true what your lord said, the ground near the Rhododendron must be wet after being fished up, and it's not easy to dry the ground, and the time is short, so there must be traces."

"Yes."

Chen Mu snapped his fingers.

He came to the steps, knelt down and touched the ground around him: "No accident, after being fished out, Du Juan should be lying here."

"So, judging from the position comparison, she may have jumped off by herself."

Wang Fafa established the first hypothesis.

Chen Mu observed the surrounding environment, pointed to the gate and said, "This road leads to the gate, so let's make a second assumption. Du Juan was going to go back, but he jumped into the water halfway, why?"

"Threatened?" Wang Fafa frowned.

Chen Mu nodded: "It's possible, or maybe the woman was very desperate at the time, and after seeing the pond, she suddenly developed a will to die."

The atmosphere became heavy.

Although it is still a hypothesis, if it is true, the case will become more complicated and confusing.

An ordinary woman appeared in this deserted yard, then jumped into the water and drowned, was it emotionally damaged or other reasons?

"Go down." Chen Mu stared at the pond, and suddenly said.

"what?"

Wang Fafa was a little dazed.

Chen Mu said, "Try your luck and see if you can find the items that the woman accidentally left behind in the water."

"This water..."

Looking at the stinking green pond, Wang Fafa gritted his teeth with a mournful face, and finally took off his clothes, leaving only his underwear on.
