They began searching for clues in the quarry, exchanging findings with each other from time to time.

Suddenly, Zhao Zhizhi discovered that there seemed to be some strange marks on a stone in the pit.

She walked over and took a closer look and found that these marks looked like scratches by something, and they were very new.

"Li Yunfei, come and see this!" Zhao Zhizhi shouted.

Li Yunfei walked over and took a look, and also found something unusual about these traces.

"These marks are very new and do not appear to be formed naturally." He said, "Maybe they are marks left by the murderer!"

They followed the traces and found that they led to a bush.

There seemed to be something hidden in the grass. They walked over carefully and took a look, and found a rusty knife with blood stains on it.

There was still some dirt and weeds left on the knife, and it seemed that the murderer had deliberately hidden it here to cover up others' eyes.

"This is the murderer's weapon!" Zhao Zhizhi said excitedly, "We found a clue!"

"That's right!" Li Yunfei also said excitedly, "Let's quickly ask others if they have seen this thing!"

However, when they brought the murder weapon back to the village, they found that the villagers knew nothing about it.

This thread seems to have been broken again. They reluctantly began to look through local case records, hoping to find some similar murders as clues.

After several days of hard work, they finally found some clues.

They discovered that a mysterious figure called "Black Shadow" had appeared in the village, and his whereabouts were very suspicious.

This dark figure always appears at night, and no one knows his true identity or what he is doing. He always wanders around the village quietly, as if looking for something.

"Who is this black shadow?" Zhao Zhizhi asked.

"I don't know, but we have to find out his details." Li Yunfei replied.

This clue excited them, and they began to investigate the identity and whereabouts of this dark figure. They discovered that the black shadow seemed to be inextricably linked to the murder. So they began a thrilling pursuit.

The village became particularly eerie at night, and the cold wind howled through the streets, taking away the last warmth of the people.

The moonlight shines on the village, adding a bit of mystery and weirdness to the scene. They followed the clues left by the shadows through the village alleys, over fields and hills.

During the chase, they couldn't help but recall that painful night, and their hearts were filled with anger and grief.

They vowed to find the real culprit and seek justice for the victims. During the arduous pursuit, they continued to dig into the background and purpose of the black shadow, trying to solve the mystery.

However, the shadow seemed to be aware of their tracking, and his whereabouts became increasingly elusive.

They encountered numerous difficulties and obstacles, but they did not give up and kept on tracking.

Zhao Zhizhi and Li Yunfei passed through the last dense forest, and an open valley appeared in front of them.

After several days of trekking through mountains and rivers, they finally found the hiding place of the black shadow.

"Ms. Zhao, are you sure? That black shadow is really here?" Li Yunfei lowered his voice and tried to remain hidden even though they were very close.

Zhao Zhizhi nodded, his palms slightly sweaty. She held tightly to the wooden stick in her hand, which was her only weapon.

She took a deep breath and tried to keep herself calm, "Yes, I'm sure. The aura of the black shadow is getting stronger and stronger."

Li Yunfei looked around. There was a dilapidated hut in the middle of the valley, with a faint light coming from the window.

He frowned, "It looks too quiet. Could it be a trap?"

Zhao Zhizhi shook his head, "No, I feel like he's inside. Let's be careful not to let him notice."

They approached the hut quietly, and the shadows in the moonlight were long.

Zhao Zhizhi's heartbeat was beating like a drum, and she tried to calm down her emotions.

Li Yunfei pulled out the dagger from his waist and held it tightly in his hand.

Just as they were about to reach the hut, a dark shadow jumped out of the house so fast that it was almost impossible to see clearly.

Li Yunfei was startled and swung his sword to meet the attack. Zhao Zhizhi quickly hid in the grass aside, holding the wooden stick in his hand ready to attack at any time.

The black shadow's movements were extremely strange, and he seemed not to be afraid of Li Yunfei's attack.

Every confrontation stirred up dust on the ground.

Li Yunfei's heart tightened. The power of this black shadow was far beyond his imagination.

Zhao Zhizhi aimed at the opportunity and hit the black shadow on the back with his wooden stick.

The black shadow seemed to have noticed it already, and easily avoided the attack by turning sideways.

He sneered and turned to look at Zhao Zhizhi, "Do you think you can beat me?"

Li Yunfei stood in front of Zhao Zhizhi, "No matter who you are, you should not be forgiven for hurting innocent people."

The shadow sneered, "Do you know how Xia Pan'er's parents treated me? They didn't hesitate to betray me for their own benefit. I'm just here to seek justice."

Zhao Zhizhi gritted his teeth, "Justice is not achieved by hurting others. Your behavior has crossed the bottom line."

The shadow's eyes were red, and he seemed to be in madness, "You hypocrites should all die!"

As he spoke, he launched an even more violent attack.

Li Yunfei and Zhao Zhizhi worked closely together to resist the shadow's attack.

However, the long battle had exhausted their physical strength.

The black shadow seems to have endless power, and every attack carries murderous intent.

Zhao Zhizhi was anxious. It was not an option to continue like this. She must find a way to stop this crazy shadow.

She quickly observed her surroundings and suddenly saw a huge stone next to her.

"Li Yunfei, lead him over there!" Zhao Zhizhi pointed at the stone and shouted.

Li Yunfei understood this, and with a feint, he successfully lured the black shadow to the stone.

Zhao Zhizhi saw the right moment and used all his strength to hit the wooden stick against the stone.

Everything happened as she expected. Under the precise blow, there was a loud "bang" and the stone shattered instantly.

The huge impact caused the shadow to lose his balance, and he screamed in horror and fell to the ground.

Li Yunfei quickly stepped forward and pressed the black shadow's throat tightly with his dagger, "It's over! Let's capture him quickly!"

Under the moonlight, they finally saw the true face of the black shadow.

It was a middle-aged man with a haggard face, his eyes full of despair and madness.

He glared at Li Yunfei and Zhao Zhizhi, "You won't have an easy time! I curse you!"

Li Yunfei held his throat forcefully, "Your crime has been exposed, accept the punishment of the law!"

In the afterglow of the setting sun, Zhao Zhizhi and Li Yunfei walked steadily through the dense forest paths, leading the dark shadows, back to the village.
