The strange case of the demon book

"Okay, okay." Uncle hurriedly rowed the boat to follow, and the two boats were getting closer and closer. When he saw the rotten flower boat clearly, Uncle was so frightened that he sat on the boat and trembled and couldn't speak. Ma Wenrui He held his breath.

When the two boats approached each other, Huo Wen pulled out the police sword from his waist and looked vigilantly.

"It's the sunken ship of the Lantern Festival flower boat." Huo Wencai said in a low voice.

"Lantern Festival... Lantern Festival..." The boatman Uncle trembled and wanted to get on the boat, but Ma Wenrui grabbed him.

"Don't go up!" Ma Wenrui shouted.

Because so many people have already died on this ghost ship, it would be courting death to go up again!

Huo Wencai stretched out his foot with the sword and tried to step on it a few times, and the rotten flower boat immediately made a "creak" sound.When Huo Wencai wanted to board the boat, Ma Wenrui said worriedly: "Wencai, this boat appears strangely, why don't we go back first."

Huo Wencai's situation that day really frightened Ma Wenrui.

"It's okay. It's hard to find clues that can be investigated. If I give up now, I won't have such a good opportunity to get close to the truth." Huo Wencai said, if the opportunity in front of him is missed, he will regret it afterwards.

However, Ma Wenrui only got: "Then be careful."

"it is good."

Ma Wenrui guarded the trembling and somewhat delirious boatman Abo behind him and drew his gun at the boat that Huo Wencai was about to board. If there was any movement, he could assist Huo Wencai to retreat.

Huo Wencai stepped on the rotten flower boat cautiously. The lanterns on the flower boat were hanging brokenly, and the whole boat exuded a damp and musty smell.Following Huo Wencai's footsteps, the flower boat made a strange "creaking" sound, as if Huo Wencai couldn't bear it and was about to fall apart.Huo Wencai took a deep breath and lifted the dirty boat curtain with his sword.I thought I'd see a skeleton flower girl or something, but I didn't.Huo Wen stepped forward to hang the boat curtain aside and went in.Water dripping from the cabin roof also landed on Huo Wencai.

The things in the cabin can be seen at a glance.

Huo Wen didn't move. The rickety table in the cabin, the wine glasses and broken wine jugs and crumpled blankets in the cabin seemed to have become like this through struggle and struggle.

It stands to reason that many things had drifted away with the current after the ship sank for many days. Not only did they not float away now, but everything that should have been in the flower boat was still there.After engraving the scene in front of his mind, Huo Wencai began to look for clues.

Huo Wencai picked up the smashed wine jug. It looked like it was smashed artificially. If it was accidentally broken, the cabin was covered with blankets, and the sides and top of the cabin were made of wood. No matter how accidentally it broke It won't fall like this.It is even more unlikely to accidentally drop it from the small table and smash it on the blanket.It is impossible for this porcelain wine jug to be broken when it is dropped from the small wooden table to the blanket.

Huo Wencai judged that the jug was smashed artificially.He picked up a shard of the wine jug, the tip of the shard was very sharp, and there was a smear of dried blood in the sharpness!

The surprise in Huo Wencai's eyes flashed away——

This is so weird.

Nothing floated with the current, blood on the tiles.

This flower boat is probably something terrible.

Huo Wen just turned the table over and saw a pistol under the table.

Sure enough, the flower boat did not overturn into the Shenjiang River for no reason on the Lantern Festival.

Huo Wencai put away the pistol, searched for it again but found nothing.After Huo Wencai exited the cabin, Ma Wenrui, who was pointing a gun at the boat, breathed a sigh of relief.The boatman Uncle's face was completely pale, and Huo Wen jumped back behind Uncle's boat.

"We found something, let's go back." Huo Wencai said.

"Just go back like this?" Abe said a little excitedly.Ma Wenrui gave the boatman Uncle a strange look: "Of course, now that we have new clues, of course we have to go back and investigate."

"Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!" Abel said as if he had suddenly realized, and then rowed.The boatman Uncle had been rowing not long before Huo Wen saw the flower boat that was getting farther and farther away from him. Suddenly, the lights in the flower window were brightly lit, and the hostesses in the cabin were flirting with the guests. Unable to keep a cold war, he blinked, and the flower boat disappeared.The dense fog gradually dissipated, and the clear river surface appeared. Many fishermen on the river were fishing and tourists who rented flower boats were playing.

Huo Wencai and Ma Wenrui went ashore after the boatman Abo rowed the boat to the floating market.

"Thank you, Uncle." Huo Wen waved.Boatman Uncle waved them off.

Ma Wenrui still felt a little weird in his heart, but he didn't know what to say about the weirdness.

When the two returned to the police station, they told Wei Zong what they had investigated and gave Wei Zong what they had obtained on the cabin.Wei Zong picked up the tiles to look at them, threw the tiles aside and took a look at the pistol.

"A foreigner's revolver." Wei Zong could tell at a glance that it was a British-style revolver.

Has something to do with foreigners?Those who can afford such pistols are either rich or expensive, and if they have nothing to do with the foreigners on Shamian Island, then they have nothing to do with the dignitaries in Guangzhou City.

And this pistol seems to have been seen somewhere.

Wei Zong asked them to continue the investigation.

Huo Wencai went back at noon, Zhang Jue was at home, planting peach blossoms?Huo Wen hurriedly went to the kitchen to cook for fear that Zhang Jue would be hungry.Zhang Jue, who was using the shovel, saw that Huo Wencai got into the kitchen and continued to dig a hole to plant peach blossom branches.Huo Wencai's voice came from the room: "Zhang Jue, can peach blossoms survive without roots?"

"This is a peach blossom branch given by Doctor Liu. This peach blossom can not only be grown alive, but it will be even better if it grows to make peach wood swords and peach wood charms." Zhang Jue said.

"So it was given by the doctor. It must be unusual." Huo Wen was sure.

"Maybe." Zhang Jue continued digging holes to plant peach blossoms.

After Huo Wencai made lunch, Zhang Jue also planted the peach blossom branches. The peach blossom branches were small and inconspicuous at all.

Zhang Jue washed his hands and went to the hall to have lunch with Huo Wencai.Huo Wencai told Zhang Jue what happened this morning, and Zhang Jue stretched out a finger to touch Huo Wencai's forehead.

"Hmm!" Huo Wen blinked in confusion.

"Be careful when encountering such a thing in the future, and don't rush forward immediately." Zhang Jue said.

"If you survive a catastrophe, you will be blessed. I will protect myself." Huo Wencai said with a smile.

Zhang Jue put food for Huo Wencai and blocked Huo Wencai's mouth.

Huo Wen just smirked.

He likes Zhang Jue the most!

After the two finished their meal, Huo Wen went out for a walk with Zhang Jue.When I was walking on Taiping Street, I found a circle of people in front of me.

"Why did this man faint on the road again?"

"Whoever knows, hurry up and take it away..."

"It seems that Young Master Zhang knows him?"

"..."

After Huo Wencai and Zhang Jue squeezed in, they found the dark green haired mermaid fainted on the ground again due to lack of water.

"Let's go! Let's go!" After Huo Wencai squeezed in, he picked up the mermaid goblin and went back to Zhang's house with Zhang Jue.

After returning home, Huo Wen took the bathtub to the yard, filled it with water, and put the mermaid in it, and the mermaid came back to life.

"Master Zhang." The mermaid scratched her long dark green hair in embarrassment.

"Thank you for coming here." Standing in front of the tub, Zhang Jue said to the mermaid with a smile.

"It should be. I found some information about what Master Zhang asked me to check." Said the mermaid goblin.

"I would like to hear the details." Zhang Jue said.

So the mermaid fairy told all the things that happened on the Lantern Festival.

On the day of the Lantern Festival, because of the excitement, there are goblins in the water secretly watching and having fun near the water market.At about ten o'clock that night, a flower boat suddenly sank into the river.A water goblin saw it and swam over quietly, flicking its tail. It saw the flower boat sinking to the bottom of the river, and a beautiful woman sank along with the boat.And two men escaped from the flower boat and swam away quietly, the reason why they say quietly.It was because the two didn't call for help, but slipped ashore in the dark.When the water demon swam back to the flower boat again, she swam away in fright when she saw the flower girl's staring eyes.

After that day, neither the fish nor the water demon in the water dared to approach the sinking flower boat, because if they approached, they would be hanged to death by the long black hair.The dead air filled the waters, and the woman who died at the bottom of the water turned into a ghost, and the sinking flower boats behind were dragged into the bottom of the river by this female water ghost.

Regarding the two people who escaped, the water demon didn't remember either, but only remembered that they were wearing...

The mermaid pointed at Huo Wencai's clothes and said, "It's very similar to the clothes Mr. Huo is wearing."

Huo Wencai's heart skipped a beat at the identification of the mermaid goblin——

After getting the news, Zhang Jue and Huo Wencai sent the mermaid goblin back to Yuejiang, and Zhang Jue repeatedly told the mermaid goblin not to go ashore if it's okay.

This city of Guangzhou is not peaceful.

This case may involve a lot.

On the way back, I met Bei Tangyan who was wearing a black windbreaker and a jazz hat, carrying a suitcase and sitting in a rickshaw.Zhang Jue and Huo Wencai would not have seen him in person if Beitangyan hadn't called the rickshaw to stop.

When Beitangyan saw the two of them, she said to the driver of the rickshaw: "Stop, stop." Beitangyan got off the car, turned around and shouted to the two people in front: "Zhang Jue, Huo Wencai!"

Zhang Jue and Huo Wencai turned around, seeing Beitangyan's outfit, Zhang Jue said, "Beitangyan, go back to Hong Kong?"

"I still have something to go back at home. I just went to your house to find that you were not here. Fortunately, I met you here. Please help me to see Jinghong tonight. I am afraid that Jinghong will encounter something unknown tonight." Bei Tangyan said.

"Okay. When will you come to Guangzhou again?" Zhang Jue asked.

"The return date is uncertain." Beitangyan sighed.It would be fine if Jinghong followed her, but no matter what she did, Jinghong was still very indifferent to him.He was puzzled, Jinghong was a woman he couldn't see through.

Zhang Jue looked at the back of Beitang Yan getting into the rickshaw and leaving.

The return date is uncertain, but it is due to this.

Jinghong's life was full of ups and downs, how many men wanted to keep her, and how many men became passers-by in her hands.

It's not up to anyone.
