The rain was getting heavier, and the raindrops splashed on the ground seemed to have grown long and thin fluff.

After hearing Ximen Qingqing's words, Wu Song rushed towards an alley.

Ximen Qingqing hurriedly chased after him.

The soles of her shoes were soaked in the wet and cold rain, and even her steps seemed to be tied.

When Ximen Qingqing caught up with Wu Song out of breath, he found him standing in front of a door in the rain.

Ximen Qingqing pressed his chest, "What's wrong?"

Wu Song pursed his lips, and with his wet hair on his face, he said blankly, "I killed my sister-in-law at home, and I didn't remember to close the door when I went out. Why...why is this door fastened from the inside?"

The deadbolt on the inside clearly indicated that someone was in the house.

In the rainy night, Wu Song, an indomitable man, couldn't help shivering.

At this moment, out of the corner of his eye, Ximen Qing took a step forward.

I saw her calmly rolled up her wet sleeves, pressed her hands against the door, tilted her head, and put her ears close to the door.

She lowered her eyes and listened for a while, then suddenly raised her eyelashes, and met Wu Song who was watching her attentively.

Wu Song asked in a low voice, "Aren't you afraid?"

"Afraid?" Ximen Qingqing smiled.

Who do you think you are facing?I'm a famous detective who has solved countless mysteries!

Ximen Qingqing smiled and said, "You're afraid of that? Then when you meet ███ creatures, wouldn't you go crazy?"

Wu Song opened his eyes wide, obviously she was speaking in human language, why he couldn't understand the pronunciation in the middle, and felt that the pronunciation was weird and lingering, like a thin white bug that kept taking root in his brain.

Half of his body was cold, and he asked bravely, "What are you talking about?"

Ximen Qingqing turned his head, hooked his slender fingers, and tapped lightly on the door twice with his knuckles.

The rain-soaked door made a muffled sound under her knocking.

Wu Song pulled her back, "Be careful!"

Ximen Qingqing let him pull her, and she couldn't break free anyway with her strength, but she turned her whole body towards the door, as if she was full of anticipation for the person who was about to come out.

Wu Song frowned.

He had also heard about the reputation of the official Ximen before, and it was nothing more than saying how shameless she was and how rich she was, but no one had ever said that the official Ximen was so obsessed with cases and things about ghosts and ghosts.

Wu Song clenched her slender wrists tightly and stared at the door without blinking.

There was a rustling sound from inside the door, as if someone had moved the latch.

With a "squeak", the door opened.

A pair of delicate white hands lifted the hem of the skirt, revealing the bright red embroidered shoes. The weak candlelight fell on the shoes, showing a strange blue color.

The feet wearing embroidered shoes stepped over the threshold, and the person inside the door stood under the eaves, smiling at Wu Song, and said softly: "Uncle is finally back."

This face... this face!

Wu Song's eyes widened, and the three souls and six souls almost flew out of Tianling Gai.

The person in front of him was none other than Pan Jinlian, whose head had been beheaded by Wu Song!

He had been drenched in the rain for quite a while, but seeing the dead man standing in front of him again, he couldn't help but feel chills.

He opened his mouth and said with difficulty: "Who are you!"

Pan Jinlian smiled, coquettish and seductive, she covered her lips and said: "Uncle is too dazed to drink, why don't you know who my servant is?"

Wu Song: "You...haven't you been killed by me?"

Pan Jinlian clasped her hands on her chest, and said with a charming smile: "Uncle, what nonsense are you talking about? If Uncle really killed the slave family, why is the slave family here?"

yes, yes...

Wu Song touched the sharp knife in his arms and touched the blood on his hand.

…Obviously she died right in front of his eyes, and he still remembered the sticky feeling of blood splashing on his fingers.

Wu Song clenched his teeth, but still couldn't help trembling.

"You...you are a human or a ghost after all! One person does things and one person is in charge. If you ask me for your life, Wu Song will accompany you. I also ask my sister-in-law to spare me for a while. When I find the murderer who killed my brother, I will naturally Life for life!"

Pan Jinlian leaned against the door and smiled, "Stop talking nonsense, uncle, come in quickly, don't get caught in the rain outside."

She stood by the reddish door, and the room behind her was glowing with blue light, just like the ghost girl opening the door painted on the coffin.

Wu Song's face was pale.

"Cough." A light cough suddenly woke Wu Song up.

He hastily turned his head.

Ximen Qingqing smiled and said, "Since your sister-in-law has invited the two of us in, let's go in."

After she finished speaking, she took the first step, walked briskly past Pan Jinlian, and stepped into the vermilion threshold.

Wu Song looked at her back and couldn't help but secretly spit at himself.

Could it be that he is not as good as a spoiled youngster?

Wu Song pulled himself together and kept his hand on the sharp knife in his arms.

He stared closely at Pan Jinlian by the door, and moved in step by step.

Just when he was about to cross the threshold, he kicked it on the threshold even though he had already raised his foot, staggered suddenly, and rushed into the door.

Ximen Qingqing turned around when he heard the voice.

With a "boom", Wu Song fell to his knees and knelt hard in front of Ximen Qing.

Both of his knees were numb with pain.

The next moment, he felt something blowing towards his neck, causing his hair to stand on end. Then, as if Mount Tai was pressing down on him, his shoulders were heavily pressed down, and his forehead hit Ximen Qingqing's toes with a "bang". on the ground ahead.

Because of too much strength, he even broke the skin on his forehead.

Ximen Qingqing stretched out his hand to support him: "Hey, why do you have to do this great gift? Thank you is not such a thank you."

Wu Song clenched his teeth, opened his tiger eyes wide, and suddenly turned his head to stare at Pan Jinlian.

"You are a monster!"

Pan Jinlian stretched out a finger, wrapped it around a strand of hair beside her cheek, and said with a smile: "Uncle, I'm joking, but I haven't done anything!"

Wu Song wanted to say something, but Ximen Qingqing helped him up.

Ximen Qingqing: "Don't talk so much, just wipe the blood off your forehead."

Wu Song wiped it casually: "It doesn't matter."

His attitude towards Ximen Qingqing is much more kind now.

Ximen Qingqing: "Let me give you first aid."

Before Wu Song could refuse, Ximen Qingqing dragged him to a brightly lit place.

Ximen Qingqing took a closer look at the wound on his forehead, it was just a small scratch that could be healed by spitting on it.

She wiped around the wound with the handkerchief in her arms, and took the opportunity to point to her "first aid" skill.

She still doesn't believe it, how could a character named her become an African in a famous book?

[Use first aid skills, please roll the dice. 】

Ximen Qingqing threw the dice, and after a familiar crisp sound, the bright red pop-up window came alive on her face.

[Congratulations, you rolled 99, almost a perfect big failure, awesome! 】

Nima, this strong sense of ridicule!She, a protagonist, was actually mocked by her golden finger?

Ahhh, quickly return her God's favorite beautiful girl set!

Ximen Qingqing's face turned red and turned white, and his fingers subconsciously moved, unexpectedly poking into Wu Song's wound, tearing his wound open.

Wu Song let out a scream, covered his wound tightly, and glared at her angrily. However, all his anger dissipated after his eyes swept over the red marks on her neck.

He turned his head away and muttered: "Revenge is also due..."

Ximen Qingqing: "..."

Can I say that I really didn't do it on purpose?

There was a chuckle in the room, echoing in the empty room seemed a bit strange.

Wu Song jumped up suddenly, blocked Ximen Qingqing, and faced Pan Jinlian directly.

Pan Jinlian smiled and said: "Uncle is too wary of my family, my heart will be broken by my ruthless uncle."

"I don't know why uncle came to visit late at night?"

Wu Song stared at Pan Jinlian, looked at the shadow under her feet, and felt a little relieved.

It doesn't look like a ghost.

Did he kill the wrong person?Or was he hysterical?

Wu Song couldn't figure it out, and asked directly: "Sister-in-law, do you know that brother died of poisoning?"

Pan Jinlian: "I don't know."

Wu Song: "What meals did brother have on the day of the accident?"

Pan Jinlian's eyes fell on Ximen Qingqing, and then she turned back.

Ximen Qingqing's heart skipped a beat.

What do you see me doing?I'm not your adulterer anymore.

Pan Jinlian: "It was snowing that day, and Dalang couldn't go out to sell cooking cakes, so I asked someone to buy some wine and vegetables, and we drank and ate vegetables with him. At night, he began to feel unwell. The next morning, when I woke up, I found that The others are gone."

Ximen Qingqing: "So, the time of his death is when you fell asleep."

Pan Jinlian nodded: "Exactly."

Ximen Qingqing continued to ask: "Where did you buy the food and drink that day, but is it still there?"

Pan Jinlian pointed to the next door and said: "I entrusted the Wang Po from the teahouse next door to buy them. The leftovers... I was busy with Dalang's funeral, so I didn't pay attention to where it went. It seems that I was helped to handle it." The mourners took it away."

It's not uncommon for such things to happen. There are too many people involved in family affairs, and some people who are greedy for small things just took things away.

Ximen Qingqing asked warmly, "Mind if I look around?"

Pan Jinlian leaned against the door and said with a smile: "Come here, the official, and I will hold the lamp for the official."

As she spoke, she turned around, her skirt brushed against Ximen Qingqing's legs, and she went up the stairs with the lamp.

She stood on the stairs, looked back and smiled, "Aren't the officials following?"

Ximen Qingqing rubbed his nose, feeling a familiar smell from her.

She immediately followed the stairs.

Wu Song frowned and followed behind.

When going upstairs, Ximen Qingqing could see Pan Jinlian's back. She was wearing a plain shirt, and it was easy to see what was stained on it because of the light color.

Right now, there was a streak of black on her back.

Ximen Qingqing raised his hand and flicked the thing tightly in his palm. The next moment, Pan Jinlian seemed to have eyes behind his back, and held her hand with his arms straight back.

Her hands were cold and there was no trace of popularity.

Ximen Qingqing stared at her white fingers without speaking.

Pan Jinlian glanced back at her, then squeezed her palm: "Officials, please don't play tricks on the servants."

What are you doing, what are you doing!I haven't done anything, so don't touch me!

Pan Jinlian walked more and more slowly, approached Ximen Qingqing, and said in a low voice: "I heard that the officials hired a singer in Qianjie..."

Ximen Qingqing showed a big smile to Pan Jinlian, "Look at my face."

Pan Jinlian looked around, not knowing why.

Ximen Qingqing raised his head, "With my face, I will be at a disadvantage with anyone, okay?"

Hmph, I also hired a singer, so it's not like I was spending money to let people vote me for nothing!

Pan Jinlian smiled, "You..."

Her tone was friendly, she approached Ximen Qingqing all of a sudden, her dark eyes stared at Ximen Qingqing without blinking.

Ximen Qingqing's scalp went numb for a moment, as if he was being targeted by something terrifying.

Pan Jinlian whispered to Ximen Qingqing, "Are you feeling better?"

"what?"

She squinted her eyes, brushed the scar on Ximen Qingqing's neck with her thumb, and said in a sweet tone: "My family has avenged the officials."

So, what happened to Wu Song just now was caused by her!
