No. 7 Fish House

The light rain didn't stop until noon, Xing Ting lay on the bed so hungry that he couldn't help getting out of bed to look for something to eat. There was nothing to eat at home except two apples.

He gnawed on an apple and thought, if it weren't for so many strange things that happened to him these days, he wouldn't be so embarrassed.You know, he is a frequent visitor to the Jule Building, and those employers who ask him to do business will invite him to have a big meal in the Jule Building, but now he is reduced to eating apples.

Thinking of Jule Tower, Xing Ting suddenly became energetic.

When he was at the Fangguanshan cemetery yesterday, he told He Fu that the messengers were all children randomly found on the street. He really couldn’t remember the appearance of the child, but he remembered one thing, the girl’s skirt. An iris flower is embroidered on the pendulum.

It's not that he has doubts about He Fu's identity, but that he really doesn't want to trust the police in the tea city.I once witnessed the police in the tea city handle a case, because they couldn’t catch the criminal, they randomly arrested a thief to take the blame. The thief escaped and was killed on the street.

Since the police are unreliable, they can only clean up their grievances by themselves.

Xing Ting put down the apple core in his hand, turned around and went into the closet. Behind his closet was a secret room.The secret room is not big, just enough to accommodate a large table and a chair. There is a huge mirror hanging in the center of the secret room. Xing Ting sits in front of the mirror, stripping himself clean and naked.

He then gently cut a small gash behind his ear with a razor blade.In the dim secret room, this scene looked extraordinarily eerie and frightening.

I saw that Xing Ting touched the wound with his right hand and tore it violently, tearing off his entire face. Slowly, his body seemed to grow a huge human-shaped chrysalis, wrapping him inside.

After a while, he broke out of the cocoon, slowly got up, and shook off the debris on his body. The Xing Ting reflected in the mirror has become another person.

This is Xing Ting's secret. His skin has the function of remodeling after being injured. During the remodeling period, his body will grow a layer of cocoon to wrap him up.In just a short time, he can be reborn in the cocoon and become another person.

It's just that this disguise technique doesn't last long, and it does some damage to himself, so he rarely does it.

Seeing the brand new self appearing in the mirror, Xing Ting felt very satisfied, he stretched out his hand to touch the face, and then smirked at the mirror a few more times.Finally come to a conclusion.

"It became a success in the first attempt. It's not bad, but this face is not as handsome as mine."

Walking out of the secret room, he took out a set of clean clothes from the closet and changed into them. Dressing up is really quite different from that poor boy just now.

After the disguise, Xing Ting walked towards Jule Building on North Street with a smile.

He wants to find someone here, the iris girl he saw that day.And the person who has the most contact with this iris girl is the current owner of this face.

The owner of this face is surnamed Jin and named Renyao.Everyone in Jule Building respectfully called Mr. Jin, he is a distinguished guest of this Jule Building.It's just that no one knows about Mr. Jin's family background. They only know that he is a rich man, wears the best suits, and wears the most greasy perfume.

When Xing Ting ate here, he saw a little girl at his table several times.

As soon as Xing Ting stepped into the threshold of Jule Building, Song Ai, the servant who cleaned the seats with a handkerchief, walked over with a flattering smile on his face: "Mr. Soup?"

Xing Ting straightened the sleeves of his suit, pretending to be very elegant, and said in a low voice, "It's the same as usual."

After finishing speaking, he touched his face, but luckily he didn't show any flaws.Then he took a look at the bronze mirror hanging in the hall of Jule Building. This face was quite good-looking, but there was a pair of not-so-beautiful eyes in the facial features. The eyes were slightly squinted, revealing a wretched air.

He frowned at this face, and sighed in his heart again: This face is really ugly, but his own face is handsome.

The little servant Song Ai saw 'Mr. Jin' frowning, and asked: "Why is Mr. frowning? Is it because I didn't entertain you well in Jule Building?"

Xing Ting smiled slightly: "That's not true, it's just that I didn't see that little guy, and I was a little unhappy in my heart."

When saying this sentence, Xing Ting vomited himself 180 times in his heart.This Jin Renyao, every time he came to Julelou for dinner, he would always let the little girl eat with him. Xing Ting saw him twice, and the Jin Renyao put the little girl on his lap.

Because of the relatively long distance and half of the face covered by the screen, Xing Ting could only see the lower body of the little girl.

He clearly remembered the dress that the little girl was wearing. It was made of water pink fabric and fine satin, with a beautiful iris flower embroidered with colorful silk thread on it.

Although the irises were ordinary, Xing Ting remembered them very clearly, because the little girl who came to Julelou to deliver letters to him that day also had the same skirt with an iris embroidered on the hem.

Of course, it would not be surprising if the two had the same style of skirt.But the little girl who delivered the letter also had the same fragrance, and this fragrance was the same fragrance that emanated from the greasy Mr. Jin, so it was suspicious.

Song Aiyi understood the deep meaning of Xing Ting's words, and whispered in a low voice: "Mr. Jin doesn't know something, Miss Yuanyuan is sick, and hasn't come to the building for the past few days."

Xing Ting asked in surprise, "Are you seriously ill?"

Song Ai shook her head, then nodded again: "It should be serious."

Xing Ting said, "What do you mean it should be serious?"

Song Ai replied: "Because I haven't seen Ms. Yuanyuan, I don't know how ill she is. I haven't seen her for a few days. I think she must be seriously ill. Otherwise, if she sees Mr. Jin, she must run to you immediately. "

The last sentence, Song Ai said a little ambiguously.Xing Ting shuddered, feeling goosebumps all over his body.He had seen Yuan Yuan, she was a ten-year-old little girl, Mr. Jin's behavior was not a serious person, and children were used to accompany drinks in this Jule building.Really disgusting!

He waved his hands, and said with some displeasure: "I won't eat today, I can't see her, I can't eat."

Song Ai shouted: "Okay."

Seeing Xing Ting stepping out of the threshold, he chased after him and grabbed Xing Ting and whispered, "Mr. Jin, I hope you go and see her. She is at No. 11 Tonghai Lane."

Xing Ting glanced at him, nodded slightly: "Got it."

He just wanted to find out where Yuanyuan lived, but now that Song Ai automatically reported the address, it would save trouble for him.

But where is Tonghai Lane?He didn't dare to ask more, for fear of revealing his flaws.If Song Ai finds out that he is not the real Mr. Jin, he may cause a lot of trouble.

After walking out of Jule Building, Xing Ting covered his face with one hand and walked quickly.

Xing Ting's disguise technique was discovered when he was 12 years old. He can change into another person's appearance in a short period of time.It's just that this kind of change is very unstable, which makes him very worried that it will show its prototype in Jule Building.

After walking a long distance, Xing Ting put down his hands and asked passers-by for the location of Tonghai Lane.

This Tonghai Lane is very remote, it is an abandoned alley with no one inhabited, how could Yuan Yuan, a ten-year-old girl, live here?

He counted them one by one, and number 11 happened to be here.

Standing at the door, Xing Ting was thinking about how he should visit Yuanyuan so as not to reveal his flaws.He raised his head and looked around the door. There were several cobwebs. Could there really be people living in such a place?

He looked at the crack of the door, before the door was pushed open, a hand stretched out from inside, dragged him in, and threw him on the ground fiercely.

"Boss, this is the person who pretends to be you and inquires about Miss Yuanyuan!"

Xing Ting was startled by this familiar voice, looked up and saw that it was indeed Song Ai, a servant in Jule Building.

Looking behind Song Ai, isn't that the real Jin Renyao?

Jin Renyao was wearing a noble white suit and a white hat on his head. Wherever he stood, he looked suave and suave, but no matter how well dressed this man was, he was still a beast in human skin.He glanced at Xing Ting coldly: "Who are you, why are you pretending to be me?"

Xing Ting didn't know where the courage came from, and shouted loudly: "I also said that you copied my face, I am the real Jin Renyao!"

As soon as the words finished, Song Ai kicked him on the calf, and he knelt on the ground.

"Be fucking honest with me!" Song Ai glared at him fiercely.

Xing Ting felt a little surprised, how did Song Ai see through her identity?He has walked all the way, his face has not changed at all, it is still Mr. Jin's face.

I saw that Jin Renyao bent down to look at him with a smile: "You don't want my face to be stripped off, so just answer my words properly."

When Xing Ting heard the word 'grilled', he immediately thought of the three corpses whose stomachs had been ripped open and their internal organs removed.

"Did you kill those people?"

Jin Renyao raised his eyebrows: "Several people, shouldn't I just kill Yuanyuan?"

Xing Ting was very angry when he heard this: "You beast! A ten-year-old girl will not be spared!"

Jin Renyao smiled, and his whole face became even more obscene.

"Are you sure she's just a ten-year-old girl?"

Xing Ting looked at him with wide eyes: "What do you mean?"

Jin Renyao said: "It's just a dwarf doll I raised. My life is in my hands. I can kill it if I want to."

dwarf?

Xing Ting felt strange, no wonder this little girl always came to drink with Jin Renyao, he thought Jin Renyao was a pedophile.It turns out that Yuanyuan is actually a dwarf?

"That is human life, why did you kill her?" Xing Ting asked angrily.

The clues that led to this place were actually broken, and Yuanyuan might be the only one who had contacted the employer.This damn Jin Renyao actually cut off his clues.

"I kill a disobedient pet, do I still need to ask you for instructions?" Jin Renyao asked coldly, "But you, why did you come to investigate the death of a dwarf?"

As soon as the words fell, Xing Ting's body changed, and the remodeled face fell off like a snake shedding its skin.

Finally showing his true face.

"So it was you." Jin Renyao saw Xing Ting's face and smiled slightly, "I was looking for you, but you fell into a trap."

He clapped his hands together and gave an order: "Hit me until he hands over what I want!"

Song Ai raised his fist and landed on Xing Ting.

Xing Ting shouted: "I stole something from you, don't make false accusations!"

Jin Renyao stood sideways and said coldly, "Jade pendant."

Only then did Xing Ting react.It turned out that this Jin Renyao was the employer who asked him to steal the jade pendant from Fangguanshan Tomb!

In other words, it was because of Jin Renyao that he suffered such a crime.

"You asked me to steal the jade pendant, and you killed those people?" Xing Ting asked through gritted teeth, "Why did you blame me!"
