Living Paper

Huo Zhenye's back was soaked in sweat, he subconsciously turned around, aiming his gun at the door.

Bai Zhun glanced at him, although he was useless, he was still so courageous that he didn't even call for help.

He didn't take the pistol seriously at all, avoided the muzzle of the gun, turned into the room, looked down at the marks scratched by the female ghost's nails on the floor, and frowned slightly.

Can this female ghost break free?

As soon as Bai Zhun opened his mouth, his voice pierced the darkness, and the whole room lit up. Huo Zhenye suddenly came back to his senses, and lowered his gun. He was in his own room. This was not a dream at all, nor was anyone trying to harm him.

It really is hell.

Jin Dangui realized that Bai Zhun was behind the door, so he escaped.

"Who are you?" Huo Zhenye asked him in a different tone.

Bai Zhun ignored him, the wheelchair rolled to the window, there were a few traces of nail scratches on the window frame, Jin Dangui climbed out against the wall, and fled away a long time ago.

The strand of tobacco that was originally wrapped around Huo Zhenye's shoulder dissipated in an instant and floated into the night sky along with the wind.

Bai Zhun picked up the paper and wooden yoke that fell on the ground. The wooden yoke and the shackles were a pair. The shackles worked, but the wooden yoke was wet with Huo Zhenye's sweat, so it was useless.

Bai Zhun rubbed his fingertips together, and the wooden shackle turned into paper ashes.

There was a lot of resentment in the house, and Jin Dangui's feet were bound, and she was able to escape with only her hands, she was no longer an ordinary ghost.

According to her death, she has been dead for three nights, and when she returns to her soul for the first seven times, her ghost power will soar, and it will not be something that a simple pair of shackles can catch.

Huo Zhenye looked at the traces left on the floor and the ten small holes in the cabinet in the room, knowing that he escaped from death, he didn't feel lucky, but a sense of absurdity arose instead: "Why did she find me?"

Only then did Bai Zhun believe that Huo Zhenye hadn't killed anyone, and he was inexplicably relieved, and then he thought that whether he was doing well or not had nothing to do with him.

From this point of view, it is likely that even Jin Dangui herself does not know who killed her. When she died in Huo Zhenye's room, she thought that the murderer was him and came to him to avenge her murder.

If she couldn't kill Huo Zhenye, she would go to Liu Da.

Bai Zhun frowned, really annoyed to death.

Huo Zhenye only pondered for a moment, and then took a step forward: "Tell me who you are and where we met, and I will have a way to send a pair of paper shackles to Liu Daye."

Bai Zhun glanced at him sideways: "That thing can't catch her anymore. If you can't catch the golden dangui within three days, you and Liu Da will have nothing to eat."

"We did meet."

Bai Zhun didn't notice it for a while, but was set on by Huo Zhenye, he pursed his lips, turned and went out.

Huo Zhenye saw that without moving his fingertips, the wheelchair turned out, and hurriedly followed behind him: "Are you Mr. Yin Yang?"

Bai Zhun didn't turn his head, and chuckled softly, which was heard in Huo Zhenye's ears.

As soon as he went out, he ran into policeman Chen San, who was in the next room. He heard the movement slowly approaching, first looked at Huo Zhenye, then at Bai Zhun, first he was surprised, then he scrutinized Bai Zhun.

The man in the wheelchair is too beautiful.

In the middle of the night, such a beautiful man was in Young Master Huo's room, and there was such a commotion. It turns out that Young Master Huo Qi eats both men and women, but it's a good thing.

Chen San thought of this in his heart, and a frivolous look appeared on his face. Bai Zhun was even more amazing when he looked closely at it. Such a pretty boy, it doesn't matter if he is a man.

When Axiu came to push Bai Zhun's wheelchair, Chen San's eyeballs almost fell out again. Looking at his brother and then at his sister, it was the elder brother who was more greedy.

With a sneer on his lips, Bai Zhun shook out something from his sleeve as he passed by, and landed on Chen San's heel.

Huo Zhenye's eyes were sharp, and he could clearly see that what Bai Zhun shook out from his sleeve was a paper-cut figure.

Huo Zhenye was very clear about what Chen San was thinking, and he didn't say a word to remind him. He really wanted to see what this blank piece of paper could do.

Bai Zhun refused to tell him, and Huo Zhenye would not give up on asking, he felt vaguely that this was a very important matter, but his memory seemed to have closed the gate, no matter how much he recalled, he couldn't find any spider threads.

After watching Bai Zhun leave, he said to Chen San, "Go to the arresting room."

Chen Sansanxi: "Seventh Young Master, are you thinking about it?"

The matter of identifying the person Liu Da killed is over, so why not let go after killing him?If it weren't for the reporters outside chasing him closely, Liu Da would have been a "murderer" for a long time.

Chen San thought that this master had figured it out, so he smiled and prepared to go back to claim credit: "Wait a moment, I'll arrange a car to go right away."

Huo Zhenye had originally planned to wait for three days, the news was almost over, and it was time to settle down.

At dawn, Huo Zhenye walked out of the gate of the Licha Hotel. The reporters who had been blocking the entrance of the hotel had waited for three days and couldn't see Huo Zhenye. They all gathered around the gate of the arresting room to wait for new news.

Chen San walked ahead, Huo Zhenye's eyes glanced at his heels from time to time, Chen San walked back and smiled at Huo Zhenye: "Mr. Song is waiting for you."

Suddenly, the back of his feet was empty, and the whole person fell out and rolled down the stairs to the ground.

The rest of the guards hurriedly helped him up, Chen San wailed, and when he rolled down, there was a crisp sound of bones, which must have been broken.

"Send him to the hospital." After Huo Zhenye finished speaking, he got into the car, and he saw that thin paper man, when Chen San was about to step down the steps, he stood up and raised his heels.

It was already dawn when we arrived at the police station. Huo Zhenye was recognized by newspaper reporters as soon as he got out of the car. One of them yelled, and the rest swarmed up and surrounded him.

"Regarding the murder of Jin Dangui, do you have anything else to say?"

"Are you a murderer? Did you have any new evidence at the police station today?"

"Were you really drunk when the murder happened?"

Tabloid reporters cannot enter the police station, but they also have their own connections, and they can always sniff out some inside information.

Because of Jin Dangui's death, the newspaper's sales doubled, and the front pages of every newspaper reported Hua Guo's murder after the election.

Seeing Huo Zhenye, he squeezed his head and wanted to get some more news.If he had killed it, the sales would have doubled again; if it hadn't been for him, he could have written some romantic affairs, and someone would love to read it.

Huo Zhenye walked into the door without saying a word.

Song Jingnan, arrested by Zonghua, personally picked him up to the office. Outside the door, he still had a solemn expression, and when he closed the door, he laughed: "Mr. Huo, please sit down, please sit down."

The phone call came from Nanjing again, and it was difficult for them to deal with it. After all, the Hongkou Concession is still a territory of foreigners. There are foreigners above and reporters outside, so they have to give a result that can be explained.

Huo Zhenye put his suit jacket on the chair. It's been three days, and Mr. Song hasn't found anything.

He sat down and asked, "President Song, what's the progress of the case?"

Song Jingnan has some relatives with the Tao family, and has been doing business with the Huo family. He is very polite to Huo Zhenye, but there is really no progress.

Regardless of whether it is a murder of vendetta or love, according to the procedure, it is necessary to check all the guests attending the reception and the remaining eleven beauties in Huaguo.

But which of these people is not rich and powerful, and among the eleven beauties, only a few without backers were asked, and those with backers didn't even touch the stool of the arresting house.

The murder happened in the British and American concessions, and Song Jingnan had already planned to catch the murderer under attack from three sides. Even if Huo Zhenye didn't give Liu Daqing's confession, Liu Daqing was also the murderer.

"This matter involves many parties, Mr. Huo should know that it is difficult for me to do."

The corner of Huo Zhenye's mouth curled up: "I know Mr. Song is difficult to do, so I came here. I remembered some details. It's not convenient for Mr. Song to show me the case file, or let me meet Liu Da."

Song Jingnan was stunned, this young master has not cooperated all this time, the question is that he didn't kill anyone, he didn't know that Liu Dadong didn't do anything, but he suddenly agreed to cooperate, which made him feel suspicious.

But Song Jingnan had already thought about the outcome of this matter, so he could do whatever the young master wanted.

"Big head, bring the case files and bring Liu Da to the interrogation room. Mr. Huo wants to confront him."

Huo Zhenye sat in the interrogation room and opened the case file. The first photo was the scene of Jin Dangui's death. This kind of photo made people feel unhappy, as if he could smell the blood again.

He looked back and found that the ingredients of narcotic drugs and alkaloids were detected in the wine bottles in the room. The murderer could have drugged the wine in the room, as well as his wine glass. No wonder he died after only drinking one glass that night. Dizziness.

It's a pity that the glasses at the reception were handed over to the waiter after drinking. There were so many people that night, there must have been hundreds of used wine glasses, which had been cleaned long ago, and fingerprints could not be left at all.

Then turn back to the confessions of Miss Wu and the waiter. There are too many people coming from that person.

But many people saw Huo Zhenye, and after the medical examiner's autopsy report came out to prove the time of death, they might be able to prove that he was not in the room at that time.

Huo Zhenye was looking down, when he suddenly thought of something, he turned back, picked up the photo of the scene, and put it under the desk lamp for a closer look.

The case with the earrings is gone.

He turned to the report again, which detailed that Jin Dangui was wearing a red lace nightgown, except for the pair of diamond earrings.

Liu Da walked into the interrogation room in shackles. He stayed in the prison for a few days, and his whole body was depressed. He only insisted that he did not kill Jin Dangui, and his body was covered with blood. Before he was brought out, he was still being beaten.

The big head pressed Liu Da on the chair opposite Huo Zhenye: "Mr. Huo asked you what, you answer honestly!"

Liu Da raised his eyes and glared at Huo Zhenye. He clenched his fists tightly, and his eyes were full of hatred: "You killed her! You killed her!"

Huo Zhenye rubbed the center of his brows, he really had no patience with fools, he pressed the case file: "You know very well in your heart, I don't know her at all."

Otherwise, Jin Dangui would have entered his room without tipping the footman.

Liu shrank back in the chair, as if his whole body had been taken away.

The big head said to Huo Zhenye: "Young Master Huo, it's useless. We've been asking for several days, but he won't say anything, just...just pour dirty water on you."

Huo Zhenye refused to identify Liu Da, but Liu Da bit him back, saying that Huo Zhenye must have killed him.

Huo Zhenye smiled, he also thought about it, he threw the file on the table: "The earrings you gave the golden osmanthus are missing."

Liu Da raised his head and said in surprise, "It's gone?"

He stole a string of emeralds from his senior sister's box, but Jin Dangui didn't like emeralds and always wanted diamonds, so he gave them to her as earrings.

The things in the box were accumulated by Han San when he was young. Han San followed his master to perform in the palace, and took a lot of things before leaving.

He didn't dare to reveal it for decades. He only took it out before he passed away, and gave it to his daughter as a dowry to protect her life.

Huo Zhenye leaned back in the chair, shook out a cigarette from the silver cigarette case, lit it and took a slow puff: "You stole the dowry your master prepared for his daughter, and you want to take Jindangui far away, don't you?"

Liu Da stared closely at Huo Zhenye's face, with a hint of fear in his eyes.

"The pair of earrings disappeared out of thin air. Who do you think took it?"

Liu Da trembled all over. He was imprisoned for several days and was beaten all the time. He was not allowed to close his eyes for several nights. He became suspicious and panicked when he heard that the earring was gone. ...Master."

The big head was dumbfounded, how did Mr. Huo know these things?They also questioned Liu Er and Han Zhu, but they didn't mention anything about the earrings.

Just when Liu Da finally responded and the interrogation could continue.

Mr. Song opened the door and came in, with a very ugly expression on his face. He smiled at Huo Zhenye: "Mr. Huo, go back." After speaking, he looked at the big head again, and pointed to Liu Da who was still curled up on the chair: "Take him, too. Let it go."

"The case is solved?" Huo Zhenye was puzzled.

"Another one died." Su Manli, October Beauty.

Boss Song had a serious face. Her death was exactly the same as that of Jin Dangui, her eyes were gouged out and she died on the bed.

Both Huo Zhenye and Liu Da were under guard, one was locked in a cell, and the other had never left the Licha Hotel, so they were naturally cleared of suspicion.

People are not killed by them.
