Even hybrid monsters have their day

Chapter 102 Exploring the Case

Qiu Pi looked at Zhu Hai, "Did that person take anything?"

Zhu Hai shook his head. "We've already investigated. His identity is just suspicious, and I believe he hasn't had a chance to make a move yet."

He thought for a moment and said, "Fine, let Miss Shen take her back." Then he looked at her, "But you have to give me an explanation."

Geng Miaowan naturally nodded repeatedly and agreed. She knew what he meant by "explain," and for now, she could only agree first.

He left in a hurry after he finished speaking.

"There's something outside the door," Luan Hao suddenly said.

Usually, those who can get him to talk are not good people. For some reason, Geng Miaowan suddenly thought of that mysterious assassin.

At this moment, Zhu Hai had already brought the person to her. She said to Zhu Hai, "You go ahead with your work, no need to see us off." Then, she took the person's hand and walked quickly towards the door.

Zhu Hai had no time to stop them and could only watch helplessly as the two of them left side by side.

As we walked, I asked, "Where do you live? You go back first, I'll come find you later."

That man, having narrowly escaped death, was still shaken and dared not go home. Wasn't he afraid that Qiu Pi would change his mind again and secretly have someone kill him?

Seeing him shake his head, Geng Miaowan sighed inwardly at her bad luck and resignedly told him the address of Feng Xiaotian's villa, "Go to this address and wait for me. If they ask, just say that I sent you there."

The man nodded.

"left"

Go straight

"Entering the alley"

"Be careful, it's just ahead."

Following Luan Hao's suggestion, Geng Miaowan arrived at a small alley next to the bar. At the end of the alley, a tall, imposing man stood there; from his profile, it was undoubtedly Qiu Pi.

He stood there alone, and judging from his expression and movements, he seemed very angry. Because he was quite far away, all I could see was his mouth opening and closing, as if he were speaking.

"What is he doing?" Geng Miaowan asked in confusion.

"They're talking." Little White is indeed a bit whiter.

In the end, it was Luan Hao who told her, "There's something on the other side of him."

"But I can't see anything..."

"What can you, with your mortal eyes, see?" Little White said dismissively. In truth, it couldn't see what was there either; it was just relying on its senses.

"..." Geng Miaowan indicated that she didn't want to talk to it anymore. She looked at Qiu Pi and slowly moved closer, wanting to hear what he was saying. After taking about ten more steps forward, she could finally hear a little bit of Qiu Pi's voice.

She wasn't afraid of being discovered, because of her special constitution; as long as she didn't make a sound or get seen, she probably wouldn't be detected even if someone stood right in front of her. With this understanding, eavesdropping was effortless for her.

At this moment, Qiu Pi waved his hand impatiently and said forcefully, "Alright, stop talking."

"What's the use of crying now that they've already been killed?"

He didn't know what the other person said, but his attitude softened. "Fine, I'll try to think of a solution for you."

After saying that, Qiu Pi looked around, turned and left. Only when she could no longer hear her footsteps did she quietly peek out from behind a trash can.

Peng Yuxian, who had been standing some distance away, walked up to her and asked, "Are you alright?"

She nodded.

When they returned to the villa, the young man who had been rescued from the bar was sitting awkwardly in the living room, holding a cup of tea but not drinking a drop, his uneasy eyes glancing at Xu Ruwen from time to time.

Upon seeing Geng Miaowan return, he quickly put down his cup and went to her side. "You're back?"

She paused for a moment before remembering that this was the person she had rescued at the bar. She said to him, "Sit here a little longer, I'll come find you later." After saying that, she went to the study with Xu Ruwen, Feng Xiaotian, and Peng Yuxian to exchange information.

The young man was left sitting alone in the living room.

In the study, four people stood or sat, each occupying a space.

"From what you're saying, the mysterious thing that met with Qiu Pi is very likely the mysterious murderer?" Feng Xiaotian asked. He glanced at Peng Yuxian, wondering if the kid had really guessed right...

Geng Miaowan nodded. "I heard it all clearly." Although it was just Qiu Pi's monologue, it wasn't hard to guess what the other person was saying from his words. Uh... roughly.

After listening, Peng Yuxian glanced at Feng Xiaotian triumphantly, "See? I told you long ago that Qiu Pi was suspicious, but you just didn't believe me."

"However, this is just your guess at this stage. After all, you only heard Qiu Pi's words, but you didn't hear what the other party said." Xu Ruwen can be said to be the most cautious person among these people. After all, he has lived for more than a thousand years.

Although the others didn't say anything more, they all felt that Qiu Pi was inextricably linked to the mysterious murderer.

"By the way, did you find anything when you went to the villa?" Geng Miaowan asked Xu Ruwen and Feng Xiaotian.

Xu Ruwen said, "There is nothing suspicious in the villa. The entire crime scene looks like there was no third party involved. The cause of death is just as the police announced."

"Yes, just like the previous times, there's not a trace at all." Feng Xiaotian sighed. If it were that easy to investigate, he wouldn't have been searching for so many years without any results.

"But later I went to the morgue and there was something strange about the body."

Feng Xiaotian looked at Xu Ruwen in surprise, "When did you go to the morgue?"

"Naturally, after we broke up."

"Why didn't you take me with you to the morgue?" No wonder he told him to come back first after leaving the villa; it turns out he went to the morgue by himself.

Xu Ruwen glanced at him disdainfully, "What use is a fat guy like you?" He has magic powers, so it's much more convenient for him to come and go.

"you!"

"Alright, let's get down to business first," Geng Miaowan said, stopping the two from arguing.

Feng Xiaotian glared at Xu Ruwen, who indifferently turned away and said to Geng Miaowan, "Yi Lanfeng's body appears to have been caused by hallucinations from drug use, leading to death from excessive excitement."

"Nonsense, do you even need to tell me that!" Feng Xiaotian retorted.

"However, before I left, I examined the deceased's eyes and noticed something strange."

"Where?"

Geng Miaowan, Peng Yuxian, and Feng Xiaotian all stared at him nervously.

“It’s just…” He glanced at the three of them and said mysteriously, “The deceased’s eyes had a small gray dot in the center of the pupil.”

Upon hearing this, Feng Xiaotian said nonchalantly, "What's so strange about that?"

Geng Miaowan knew that Xu Ruwen must have had some basis for his statement, so she asked, "What's wrong with the small gray dots?"

"I've heard people say before that there was an evil spell called the Soul Absorption Technique in ancient times. People who died after their life essence was drained by this technique would have a gray spot appear in the center of their pupils." (To be continued.)
