Chapter 147 Mysterious and Strange Tales · Soul Seizing

Never expecting Cheng Xuyuan to appear suddenly with such a look, Su Ji couldn't help but feel lucky that he didn't drink water, otherwise he would definitely be choking.

"..." Su Ji: "Are you cosplaying like a flower?"

Although Cheng Xuyuan's face was not as embarrassing as Ruhua's, he didn't pick his nose.But seeing a man of science and technology who is about the same height as himself and not very feminine is wearing such a look, it is really hard to bear to look directly at him.

Facing Su Ji's ridicule, Cheng Xuyuan looked very calm: "What are you talking about, my lord? I don't understand."

Su Ji: "..."

Are you so into the show?

The entourage at the side didn't seem to have expected that the maid Xiaocui was born so "burly", and couldn't help but ask the madam Qian Mama, "Do all the maids in the Spring Wind Tower look like this?"

Mother Qian couldn't help laughing when she heard the words, "How can it be. This lord is joking."

Hearing this, the entourage glanced at the servant girl Xiaocui, hesitant to say anything, "Then what about the servant girl next to the oiran..."

Seemingly understanding his thoughts, Mother Qian said: "This is not a red flower, but it must be lined with green leaves. This Xiaocui is a maid picked by Wei Zi herself. She works diligently and doesn't talk much."

The attendant nodded suddenly when he heard that, "I see."

Su Ji turned his head and said to his entourage: "It's fine for me to be alone here, you and others in the building, what were you doing at Haishi last night, and have you seen any suspicious people?"

The entourage nodded upon hearing the words, "Yes, my lord."

After leaving with Mother Qian, there were only two people left in the room.Su Ji said: "Don't pretend to be old Cheng, I know it's you."

"I didn't intend to continue pretending." Although he was wearing such an indescribable appearance, Cheng Xuyuan still looked normal, "I heard from other people in the building that an adult surnamed Su came to investigate the case, so I guessed it was you .”

Su Ji: "I didn't expect you to be Xiao Cui. After all, the professional women's wearer in our team has always been Shao Feng."

Cheng Xuyuan: "I didn't expect that either."

"Let's get down to business." Su Ji said, "How much do you know about this case?"

"I don't know much more than you. We all entered the second story at about the same time." Cheng Xuyuan paused and said: "But according to Yuan's memory, she delivered Wei Zi's meal last night. Never came here again."

Hearing that, Su Ji took out the peony wooden hairpin that he found on Wei Zi's dressing table earlier and said, "Then trouble you to use your original memory to look at this hairpin."

"What happened to the hairpin?"

"I just think it's a little strange. You have to look at it first."

Cheng Xuyuan took the hairpin and looked at it, then was startled.As if thinking of something suddenly, he frowned: "This hairpin..."

Su Ji: "Why, did you think of anything?"

Cheng Xuyuan shook his head: "I'm just surprised that Wei Zi would leave such a simple hairpin behind."

Although it was a pity that he couldn't hear the relevant clues, Su Ji continued: "You also think it's strange. But this room is more strange than this. There is also this strong incense. Mother Qian said that Wei Zi likes incense. Incense, I usually light it in the house from time to time. But don't you think the smell in this room is too strong?"

"Indeed." Cheng Xuyuan nodded, "Although Wei Zi really likes incense, she has never smoked such a strong incense. What's more, she had a cold yesterday and was not feeling well, so she probably wouldn't be able to burn incense in such a leisurely way. "

"You're right." Su Ji said, "I think it's more like someone is deliberately using incense to cover up something."

"What to cover up..." Cheng Xuyuan was thoughtful, "Westerners originally invented perfume and cologne to cover up body odor. You mean the murderer has body odor?"

Su Ji: "..."

"Although this possibility is not ruled out, what I want to say is not this."

Su Ji paused and said: "I think the murderer is very likely to be a woman, and she should also have a special smell. Because she was afraid of revealing her identity, she lit incense in the room to cover herself up. traces of existence."

"And according to the records in the case file, there was no sign of someone forcibly breaking into the house from the outside at the time of the crime. If so, then it is possible that Wei Zi himself let the murderer enter the house."

"So, under what circumstances would Wei Zi let the murderer into the house? The answer is obvious, the murderer is familiar with Wei Zi."

"And in this Chunfeng Building, the only people who can get acquainted with Hua Kui are the benefactors who often come to her, and only the flower girls and maids in this Chunfeng Building. But according to what Mama Qian said, Wei Zi's health did not go away yesterday. Meeting guests. Then the answer is the latter."

Cheng Xuyuan nodded, "What you said makes sense, but it's just your conjecture without substantive evidence. Everything you said is only based on the fact that the murderer is a human being. But if the murderer is a goblin, Then this reasoning is not necessarily true. And don't forget that we are now in a novel of strange things, and this Wei Zi is just one link in the serial case."

"I know. This reasoning needs a lot of evidence to be established." Su Ji said, narrowing his eyes: "There must be some clues that we haven't discovered yet."

From ordinary people, to the son of the Shangshu family, to the famous oiran in Kyoto...

The identities of these dead people are also quite different.

It wasn't a murder for love, it wasn't a murder for vendetta, and it wasn't for money... So why did the murderer put them to death?

Is it possible that it is really the black three priests?Killing people just to take their souls?Because without a physical body, he can come and go without a trace, so others can't catch him?

However, the idea doesn't seem to be supported by the game.Seeing that the task panel was indifferent, Su Ji overturned such a guess.

Thinking about it, if the black three Taoists were really so easy to capture the souls of so many people in a short period of time, they wouldn't have had to spend so much time setting up formations under the Linghe River in the first place.Moreover, he was also backlashed by the formation later on, and his skill was not as good as before, so he should not have that much ability.

But if it wasn't the black three priests, who was the murderer?What is the reason for such indiscriminate killing?

You must know that perverted murderers have a certain tendency to pick people to kill.It was the first time he had heard of such an unruly harm.

It's impossible for the murderer to be a lunatic, right?

Unable to find any connections in the previous cases, Su Ji had to give up digging for the time being and refocus his attention on the oiran case in front of him.

"Squeak..."

Hearing the sudden sound of the door opening behind him, Su Ji turned his head subconsciously.I saw Cheng Xuyuan bent over and searching for something in Wei Zi's closet.

"What are you doing?"

"Looking for clues." Cheng Xuyuan replied without answering.

Su Ji: "I've already looked over there, and there's nothing but clothes."

Hearing this, Cheng Xuyuan straightened up abruptly, and turned to look at the bed not far away.

Seeing his startled performance, Su Ji was a little puzzled, "What's wrong?"

"I suddenly remembered something in the original owner's memory just now."

As he spoke, Cheng Xuyuan strode towards the bed, and started turning over the mattress as soon as he got up.After a while, I found several letters under the head of the bed.

Seeing the clean envelope in front of him without even a signature, Su Ji frowned, "This is it?"

"The original owner once saw Wei Zi laughing at a letter alone in the room, and immediately put the letter away when the original owner came, and warned her not to talk nonsense." As he spoke, Cheng Xuyuan pushed his glasses: "I guess This letter should be a love letter."

Hearing this, Su Ji immediately pulled out the letter paper.When I unfolded it, I saw that the beginning of the letter was "Qingqing Wuai".

Well, it's really a love letter.

Bearing their teeth sour, they read the entire content of the letter, and the two also learned the name of the owner of the letter.only--

"Shao Feng???"

Everyone was stunned when they saw the signature.

"Did you make a mistake?"

As if he was afraid that his eyesight might make a mistake, Su Ji turned out several other letters to check the signature, but the result was still those two words.

"So, the role that Shao Feng got this time is the best friend of the oiran Wei Zi?" Cheng Xuyuan couldn't help frowning, "But Wei Zi's benefactor, Xiaocui, has seen it all, but I have never seen Shao Feng. memory."

Su Ji: "Could it be a bug in the game? The game forgot to implant this memory for you?"

Cheng Xuyuan: "I don't know. If it's really a bug, then maybe we have to ask the real NPC about it."

Su Ji nodded, "There is no impenetrable wall in this world. It is impossible that no one in the Chunfeng Tower does not know about Wei Zi's love affair. Maybe we will find new clues when my followers come back from the interrogation." .”

While Su Ji was talking, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps upstairs.Immediately afterwards, I heard Qian's mother shouting——

"Come here! Catch the thief!"

what's the situation?

The two looked at each other in blank dismay, then opened the door and walked out.As soon as he looked up, he saw a disheveled man running from a distance with a frightened expression on his face.And his face, the two of them are also very familiar.

"Shao Feng? Why are you!"

Seeing the two, Shao Feng's eyes lit up, and he pushed the two into the house as if grasping at straws, and closed the door with his backhand.

Hearing the hurried footsteps coming here outside the door, Shao Feng got under the bed without saying a word.

Just at this time, there was a knock on the door.

Although they didn't understand what trouble Shao Feng had encountered, the two tacitly adjusted their expressions and opened the door calmly.

Seeing the anxious mother-in-law Qian Mama outside, Su Ji calmly said, "What's the matter?"

"My lord, a thief ran past here just now, did you see it?"

Su Ji shook his head, "It looks like I didn't see it, but I heard the sound of the window opening." As he said that, he turned his eyes and looked at the wide open window at the end of the corridor as if unintentionally.

Under Su Ji's misleading, Mama Qian made a mistake, she just said "Thank you, sir", and then let her subordinates rush to chase after him.

Seeing this, Su Ji seemed to inadvertently ask: "Mother Qian is so nervous, but what happened?"

"It's not a serious matter." Qian's mother was a little embarrassed: "I just found a thief in the girl's room. It's not a guest in our building."

"Little thief?" Su Ji blinked, and said teasingly, "I'm afraid it's not a flower picker."

"That's not it!" Mother Qian stomped her feet angrily as she said, "I don't know why this flower picker is so courageous that he dared to touch Yao Huang's room. If it wasn't for the clever little girl, I wouldn't know What an insult to my precious daughter."

"Is there such a thing?"

Su Ji pretended to be extremely angry and said: "Such a hateful person must be caught and punished immediately!"
