But what was their original intention for changing the way they committed crimes?

It was precisely because they changed the way they committed crimes that they clearly knew that as long as the murderer killed a person, he would definitely kill the person's family members in the next time.

So as long as there is a case discovered these days, they will go to the dead person's house to protect their family members.

After that, they have been like this all the time, and it is precisely because of this that after Zou Lin's housekeeper died, his family asked them to protect him, and Song Ting didn't notice anything unusual.

They lived in Zou Lin's house without any precautions, and only then did the following series of things happen.

And judging from that formation and other things, these people should have been prepared long ago.

Did they do this on purpose?

Prepare the trap, and then deliberately change the way of committing the crime, so that they can take the bait and catch him, so as to make Xue Yao withdraw from this matter.In this way, the people behind the scenes can deal with the few remaining people without any worries.

Song Ting slowly raised his eyebrows. According to the information they got now, this idea is very possible.

And the person who can know the relationship between him and Xue Yao must be someone who has a good relationship with both of them.

After all, the relationship between him and Xue Yao has always been underground, and only a handful of people know about their relationship.

So how did the people behind the scenes know about their relationship, and wanted to use him to threaten Xue Yao?

Could it be that the person behind the scenes is someone who knows them well?So knowing their relationship, or someone here is the person behind the scenes...

As for Duke Huguo, neither he nor Xue Yao mentioned these things in front of him, and Duke Huguo probably didn't know.

But what if someone in the Duke Protector's mansion saw their relationship?

After all, sometimes he and Xue Yao are really in love with each other, and other people saw what they did in the mansion to get out of the cabinet, and then this matter was passed on to Duke Huguo...

From this point of view, Duke Protector is the most suspected...

Song Ting checked every corner of the hut again, the room was full of ghosts.

Especially when they got close to the man's body, the closer they got, the stronger the ghostly aura here.

"I'll trouble you here." Song Ting said to the official: "Let's go back to that place first and discuss with other people."

Now that the murderer's modus operandi has changed again, and Zou Lin and He Jun's tricks have been seen through by them, then they should not kill the victim's family in the same way in order to attract their attention.

And even if their modus operandi has not changed, the man who died now is a man from a slum.

Since he lives here alone, it means that he has no relatives here.

So now whether it is this man or the rich man who died in front of him, there is no need for them to waste time on them.

Because the murderer's next choice for killing should be randomly selected, no longer killing the whole family of this person in a row.

After all, the two people who died now, one is a rich man and the other is a poor man. Luo Yu sent someone to investigate. There is nothing similar or unusual about these two people. They are all ordinary people.

It seems that the murderer has become more and more casual now, and it may be that they urgently need to transform their resentment into soul power to improve their own strength and maintain the enchantment of the ghost world.

Their top priority now is to find out the murderer and the person behind the scenes...

The officer almost nodded.

He ordered the officials guarding the door to lead them out of here with a few words.

Several people walked along the narrow path. Song Ting paid attention to the puddles under his feet. The road in this place was indeed not very smooth, and there were many small paths.

Several people were walking between the paths, Xue Yao lowered his head to avoid a small puddle on the ground, and the moment he raised his head, he saw a figure flashing past a fork in front of him.

Xue Yao paused. Isn't this figure the one he saw last time in Yunqi Tower?

Last time he only saw his back and side face, but this time he saw his whole appearance clearly, the man saw him too, but the man's first reaction when he saw him was to turn around and make a gesture. He seemed to be running, but then he seemed to have realized that he quickly turned around and greeted the people who were walking towards him: "My lord..."

Xue Yao nodded and looked him up and down. This man was dressed very simply, his sleeves and trouser legs were tied up with ropes, and he seemed to be going to do something.

"What are you going to do with this outfit?" Xue Yao looked at this man with deep eyes: "Aren't you the most powerful subordinate of father? Why are you here?"

The man glanced at the few people behind Xue Yao indiscriminately, and he smiled: "The general ordered me to come out and help him with some things. No, just after finishing those things, I met the prince."

"Father asked you to come here?" Xue Yao fixed his eyes on the man in front of him: "What did he ask you to do?"

This person is the most powerful subordinate of the Protector of the Country, and he has been with the Protector of the Country since he was young. The Protector of the Country respects him very much, and he hardly leaves his side on weekdays.

But why did he come here alone today?And also said that the protector of the country asked him to help with things?

"It's just some small things, what is the prince here?" The man said, his expression seemed a little more uncomfortable, and he changed the subject: "Is this another case?"

"Yeah." Xue Yao nodded, still staring at the man, he noticed that his expression was very strange, and there was a slight dodge in his eyes when he met him.

Xue Yao stared at him, his amber eyes slightly narrowed.

Song Ting knew him, he seemed to be called Liu Li, and he often followed Duke Hu Guo, and seemed to have won the trust of Duke Hu Guo.

"What on earth are you here for?!" Song Ting's tone unconsciously carried a hint of sternness.

The timing of this person's appearance was too strange. Before the Lord Protector could completely get rid of his suspicions, this man appeared near the place where the new case happened...

This is so coincidental...

"This..." Liu Li looked hesitant, facing the sharp gazes of Song Ting and Xue Yao, a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.

"My son doesn't know something. Back then, Duke Hu was brave and good at fighting, and his subordinates were well-mannered. Many soldiers under his command were conscripted from the people. When Hu Guo was fair, he treated all soldiers well. The relationship with these soldiers was like relatives. After the battle, many soldiers died on the battlefield, their relatives were left unattended, and their lives were very unsatisfactory..."

Liu Li lowered his head and said in a low voice, "The Lord Protector ordered me to visit the relatives of these deceased soldiers as soon as I have nothing to do, and give them some money."
