Xingnian Tea House

"Looking at your current situation, you should have been stitched up again after being dismembered. What's going on?"

Liu Man looked at himself subconsciously, shook his head and said, "I only know how I was killed, but I don't know what happened after I was killed."

Qiao Xingnian was startled, then smiled self-deprecatingly, and said, "I forgot you said that if you can't sense where the corpse is, it means that he used a corpse-repelling talisman when disposing of the corpse. Of course you don't know." What happened after that. Then why did he kill you?"

Liu Man looked at Yan Feng with scarlet eyes, and he seemed to look this way with some doubts.

Liu Man said angrily: "He is a scumbag and has raped many girls. I just discovered his secret, so I was killed by him."

"Have violated many girls?" Qiao Xingnian frowned and asked, "What's going on?"

"Yan Feng, every weekend he would drive his luxury car and park at the gate of the lake, and use various excuses to get close to the beautiful girls in the school, and after getting acquainted with them, he would pursue them. He would take the girls to bars and other places, Then after they let their guard down, they drugged their drinks and assaulted them, and finally filmed their indecent videos to threaten them and shut them up. I am one of these girls.”

The more Liu Man said, the more resentment in his eyes became stronger, and the resentment all over his body also surged violently.

Qiao Xingnian took a step back, blocking Liu Man's sight, and said, "If you don't want to become a ghost, you'd better control your emotions."

Liu Man's expression froze, and the resentment around him gradually calmed down.

"How did you discover his secret?"

"It was the weekend, that is, March 3th, the one-month anniversary of our acquaintance. He gave me a bracelet and played with me all day. He is gentle, considerate, and considerate of everything. As long as he wants, he can pamper you." God, it's hard not to fall in love with him, and so do I.

That night, I went home with him and drank the alcohol he drugged. I quickly lost consciousness. When I woke up again, I found myself in a strange room.

I came back to my senses and quickly checked whether I was violated. After feeling that there was nothing wrong with me, I began to look at the room.

There is no window in the room, only one door, and no light comes in through the crack of the door, I guess the room should be at the bottom.

The space is very large, about 100 square meters, the room is the layout of the bedroom, there is a huge round bed in the middle, a camera is placed directly facing the bed, and various sex toys are hung on the wall.

I found a large number of videotapes in the cabinet next to it, all of which were videos of Yan Feng assaulting girls.They were imprisoned in that room, abused and violated, no matter how much they begged for mercy, he would not let them go, he is a beast! "

Qiao Xingnian turned his head and glanced at Yan Feng, his eyes were full of evil spirits, this kind of scum should be eaten by resentful ghosts, and he will never be reborn forever!

Lin Nanyue also looked over, his eyes full of disgust, but he did not forget his identity as a policeman, no matter what evil the other party did, he would act according to the law.

Qiao Xingnian looked away, and then asked, "So you were killed in that room?"

Liu Man nodded and said: "That's right. When I was checking the video tape, Yan Feng came back suddenly. I quickly picked up the video camera at the side and hid at the door, trying to hit him while he was unprepared, and then escape.

It's a pity that he dodged for a while, and I only hit his shoulder. I dropped the camera and ran up the stairs, only to find that the door at the top of the stairs was also locked.

Although I struggled desperately, I was caught back by him. He tied my hands and feet, raped me, and then injected me with medicine, and then I lost consciousness. When I woke up again, I had become a ghost . "

"In other words, there are two possibilities for your death: one is that you were injected with lethal poison; the other is that you were injected with an anesthetic and killed you by other methods while you were unconscious."

Liu Man was startled, then nodded, and said, "I always thought I was poisoned to death, but I didn't think there was another possibility. I have to say that you are really smart."

"For that room, do you remember anything special so that we can find information about it?"

Liu Man thought about it carefully, and said: "Except for some shady supplies, there is nothing special about that room. The only thing that is different from other rooms is that it is at the bottom. But I am sure it is not in the basement of Yan Feng's current residence. Because after recovering my memory, I searched in the community where he lived, and there was no such a big basement at all.”

"Such a big basement..." Qiao Xingnian pondered for a while, and said, "Only villas in the suburbs or self-built houses in urban villages are eligible to build such a large one."

"I thought so too, but I've been with Yan Feng for a long time, and he hasn't been to any other place except that residence."

"Then during the time you've been with him, has he committed another crime?"

"No, during the time I followed him, he has been managing the business of the tea house, or going to other places to buy tea, and he has not gone to Huda again."

"Since he hasn't committed another crime, there is no reason to go there, let alone after killing you. Even that basement may have been cleared."

"If all the evidence is destroyed, isn't he going to escape the crime?" Liu Man became emotional again as he spoke.

"Calm down first, she's a girl anyway, she's pretty, why is she so irritable, can't she be gentler?"

Liu Man was taken aback by what he said. She was indeed beautiful. She was often praised by people during her lifetime, but she couldn't see her appearance after death.

But it is conceivable that she must have nothing to do with being beautiful. She never expected that someone... a ghost would praise her for being beautiful, and she was a little embarrassed for a while.

"I... I'm not afraid that this scumbag will escape."

"To tell you the truth, you pestered him hard before, and he was scared, so he asked his grandpa to ask me for help. I gave his grandpa a charm, with a three-day limitation..."

Qiao Xingnian briefly explained what happened before.

"He is now suspected of rape/rape and accidental death, so he will stay in prison now and for a long time in the future, so we have plenty of time to investigate."

Liu Man blinked her scarlet eyes and said, "So you were helping me a long time ago?"

Qiao Xingnian smiled and said, "It's not really helping you. After all, I sell 1 yuan for a charm. This is a lucrative business."

Liu Man muttered; "Then you still want a reward from me, and this spell of yours is enough."

"It's not the same thing. You can't renege on your debt. We will have to sign a contract at that time. If you break the contract, you will end up in hell."

"Just sign it, it's 1 yuan anyway." Since his death, Liu Man has been tortured by resentment every day, and this is the first time he feels relaxed.

Lin Nanyue watched from the side, couldn't help raising the corners of his mouth, and looked at Qiao Xingnian with a tenderness that he hadn't noticed.

The gossip just now was just to calm Liu Man's emotions, but the business still had to be done, Qiao Xingnian then asked: "Do you still remember the appearance of the girls in those videos?"

"I remember names and dates on those tapes, but I only remember a few of them, and I'm not sure if the names and dates match up."

"Tell me everything you remember, and let Team Lin remember it."

"it is good."

Lin Nanyue took out his mobile phone, opened the notebook, and wrote down the names and dates of several victims.

"Where are you from? Tell Team Lin your home address."

"I'm from Yuncheng, from Xiliang Village, Xijiang County, Yuncheng. My father died of illness two years ago, and my mother remarried very early. Now there are only grandparents left in the family. I don't know what happened to them? Probably not yet. You know I'm dead."

Liu Man's scarlet eyes were full of sadness.

"So you paid for your college tuition by yourself?"

Liu Man nodded, looked at Qiao Xingnian and said, "Yes, tuition fees, living expenses, and occasionally sending some money home. All my belongings before my death were only 500 yuan."

Qiao Xingnian spread his arms and said helplessly, "So I took a loss-making deal."

Liu Man shrugged and said, "It's too late for you to regret it now."

"Forget it, just treat it as a daily act of kindness. Anyway, there is a shortage of manpower in the store recently. You look pretty good..."

"Wait." Liu Man interrupted Qiao Xingnian and said, "Aren't you running a tea house, and recruiting a salesperson depends on appearance?"

"My place is a high-end tea house, and the salesperson's quality in all aspects must keep up, especially temperament."

Seeing Liu Man's strange expression, Qiao Xingnian couldn't help laughing and said, "What are you thinking? I'm a spirit crosser. I can't make as much money as I want. Do I need to do such a dishonest business? What's more, in front of you Standing is the captain of the criminal investigation team, who dares to do illegal things under his nose?"

Liu Man's mind was seen through, she smiled awkwardly, and said, "I'm thinking a little too much."

Qiao Xingnian couldn't laugh or cry when he heard that, he turned his head to look at the boat that salvaged the body, and said, "I guess I'm going to waste my trip tonight."

Lin Nanyue looked at him puzzled, and said silently, "Why?"

"Look at her."

Qiao Xingnian pointed to Liu Man beside him, and said, "Head, torso, limbs, even hands and feet, most of the joints have traces of cutting and stitching. If we say this is manslaughter, will Team Lin believe it?"

Lin Nanyue was startled, then turned to look at Yan Feng, and said silently, "He lied..."

"It's certain that he lied. As long as you can't find the body, you won't be able to determine whether it was a manslaughter. Then he still has a chance to stand up, and he can also get my spell with this, killing two birds with one stone."

"Isn't he afraid that we will hold on to this matter?"

"He can definitely say that the body was washed away by the current. The East Lake is so big, can it be possible that you can still drain the lake?"

Liu Man said angrily: "This scumbag is full of tricks!"

Lin Nanyue said silently, "Liu Man is here, you can use the tracer."

"Yes, it is possible, but the tracer also has a range of use. If the place where the corpse is dumped is not in the East Lake, even if it is used here, it will still not be found."

Lin Nanyue continued, "Try it."

"Then try it."

Qiao Xingnian looked around and said, "Liu Man, come with me."

Qiao Xingnian continued to walk along the lake, followed by Liu Man.Lin Nanyue hesitated for a moment, told Lei Ming to keep an eye on Yan Feng, and chased after him.

Qiao Xingnian walked for about ten minutes, looked back at the direction of the police force, and said, "Let's go here then."

He chanted the mantra silently, took out a pen and paper from the bell, looked around, then looked at Lin Nanyue, and said, "Work hard, Team Lin."

Lin Nanyue, who was called by name, was startled, and then understood what he meant. He walked up to Qiao Xingnian, bent slightly, and arched his body.

Qiao Xingnian put the talisman paper on Lin Nanyue's back, and began to draw with a brush.

Liu Man looked at the two of them, smiled and said, "You two really have a tacit understanding, he knows what you mean by a word."

Qiao Xingnian smiled, and said, "It can only be said that Team Lin is very good at observing words and deeds."

Lin Nanyue turned his back to Qiao Xingnian, his eyes couldn't see, but his senses were more acute. He only felt that Qiao Xingnian's hands were a bit cold, even through his clothes, he could feel the coolness.

Then there was another burst of coolness, and with the fall of the brush strokes, the pattern was slowly outlined in the mind.

Feeling the coolness, his skin trembled slightly, as if his body was being caressed by a pair of slightly cool hands. A different feeling hit his mind, making him close his eyes unconsciously, and his white ears slowly stained. on blush.

"Okay. Liu Man, tell me your date of birth. It would be best if you know the time of birth."

"February 2000, 2, the time is unclear."

Neither of them noticed Lin Nanyue's strangeness. Qiao Xingnian folded the drawn spell into a thousand paper cranes, then recited the spell silently, tapped the spell, and the thousand paper cranes immediately glowed faintly, flapping their wings and flying.

Seeing this scene for the first time, Liu Man couldn't help being curious, and asked, "Is this a spell? Can I learn it?"

"No." Qiao Xingnian poured Liu Man a basin of cold water directly. One Tao Hui was enough for him to cause headaches, and he didn't want to have another one.

"That would be a pity."

Liu Man thought that this was a spell that could only be learned by chance, so apart from being a little regretful, he didn't bother too much.

The thousand paper cranes flew staggeringly in front, and they followed closely behind. After walking for half an hour, the thousand paper cranes suddenly flew towards the lake. Behind Qian Zhihe.Seeing this, Liu Man also floated over, only Lin Nanyue was stopped by the water.

Following the thousand paper cranes to the middle of the lake, it still didn't stop, it was still flying forward, and it flew forward for about 100 meters before finally stopping.

Liu Man looked at the thousand paper cranes hovering in the air, and asked, "What does it mean?"

"The corpse is right below." Qiao Xingnian pointed to the water under his feet.

Liu Man looked down and volunteered, "Then I'll go down and have a look."

Qiao Xingnian nodded, and said, "The water here is very deep, at least ten meters, but the corpse didn't float up. It must be pressed by heavy objects. Try to remove the heavy objects to make the corpse float up."

Liu Man is not an ordinary grieving ghost. Because of the recovery of her memory, she has a lot of resentment, and she is already able to use the resentment for her own use. That's why Qiao Xingnian said that.

Liu Man responded and slowly sank into the lake.

After a while, there was no movement, but a few ghosts were attracted, and they stared at him intently, as if they regarded him as a delicious meal.

Qiao Xingnian glanced at them, drew a golden spell in the air, and hit it quickly before the ghosts could react.

There were waves of howls, and the golden charms quickly absorbed their grievances as usual. Qiao Xingnian was a little worried, lest the charms would go directly into the body after eating and drinking like before.Then he had to stop immediately to transform the resentment in his body. If something happened to Liu Man at this time, then he really couldn't take care of it.

Qiao Xingnian stretched out his hand to hold the soul-suppressing bell, and released Tao Hui from the soul-sacrificing bell. Before Tao Hui could react, he fell into the water.

But at this moment, the spell absorbed the ghost's resentment, and flew towards him as quickly as before. Qiao Xingnian hurriedly recited the spell silently, and the Soul Requiem bell flashed golden, and the well-fed spell was taken into the town. soul bell.

After the experiment was successful, Qiao Xingnian couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. Looking at Tao Hui who was thrashing in the water, he said helplessly, "You're a ghost, not a human being. You can't drown."

Tao Hui was taken aback, and stopped moving. The water passing through his body finally recovered his senses, and said with a faint smile, "Then what, this is all a subconscious reaction."

Qiao Xingnian ignored him, took out a spell from the space, and said, "You take this, float ashore by yourself, and go find Team Lin."

"Boss, where are you going, why are we here?"

"This is East Lake. I'll explain it to you when I get to the shore. Get ashore quickly, or you will be targeted by ghosts, and you will be their snack."

"A ghost?" Tao Hui looked around and said, "Let's go, let's go now, let's go right away."

Tao Hui quickly put the talisman in his mouth, and floated to the shore.

Qiao Xingnian watched Tao Hui drift away, he chanted the spell silently, and slowly sank to the bottom of the water.Under the faint golden light of a thousand paper cranes, Qiao Xingnian observed the surrounding environment, and wandering souls with numb expressions drifted past before his eyes, but he never found the person he was looking for.

Suddenly, an extremely strong resentment surged up, and when Qiao Xingnian found out, the resentment had already surrounded him.

Qiao Xingnian was taken aback, and quickly drew a spell, but unfortunately, those grievances didn't want to give him a chance, like thousands of tentacles, they swam towards him quickly, entangled him tightly.

Qiao Xingnian was startled, and there was a burning sensation in the place where the resentment entangled, and his hands and feet were tied up, unable to move at all.More and more resentment surged towards him, submerging his whole body, penetrating into his body from every opening, and the severe pain made him scream out.

Qiao Xingnian seemed to be in a raging fire, scorching his flesh, drying his blood, and roasting all his internal organs...

The extremely intense pain slowly destroyed his sanity, and those black and white eyes gradually became red, and finally replaced by scarlet. A violent emotion hit his heart, and he looked around indifferently, looking for the target he wanted to destroy.

At this moment, he saw Liu Man who was trapped under the water. She looked at him anxiously, as if she was asking for help.But Qiao Xingnian was completely controlled by tyrannical emotions, and no sound could be heard in his ears. He stretched out his hand and grabbed her throat, and quickly pulled away the resentment on her body, ignoring her wailing and struggling, until the resentment was wiped out. Drained, leaving only the pure power of the soul.

Suddenly, the Soul Requiem bell around his neck flickered, and Qiao Xingnian regained consciousness briefly. Looking at Liu Man who was strangled by him, he was startled, and quickly recited the spell silently. He narrowly entered the space of Soul Requiem Bell.

The one who entered at the same time as him was Liu Man who was strangled by him.He let go of his hand, panted/breathed violently, looked at Liu Man, and said, "We have been tricked, I need to meditate immediately to refine my resentment, you should stay here first."

Without waiting for Liu Man's response, Qiao Xingnian sat down cross-legged, with his heart turned to the sky, and silently recited the "Qingxin Mantra", forcing himself to recover his clarity, and slowly refining the resentment in his body with the help of the soul-suppressing bell.

I don't know how long it took, Qiao Xingnian woke up from meditation, looked around, the space that was originally filled with resentment became clear, Liu Man was holding Tao Hui's mobile phone, looking at it with great interest, and laughed from time to time.

Qiao Xingnian's eyes fell on his corpse, and he found that his pale complexion had changed to blood.Qiao Xingnian couldn't help being surprised that the blue lips had returned to their original color.

Qiao Xingnian stood up, walked towards his body, hesitated, reached out to touch his chest, and instinctively let out a sigh of relief after confirming that there was no heartbeat.When he reacted, he couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

"This is your body?" Liu Man's voice rang in his ears.

Qiao Xingnian turned his head to look over and said, "Obviously."

"If it is not confirmed that the body has no heartbeat and body temperature, no one will think it is a corpse."

I don't know if it was Qiao Xingnian's illusion, but he actually heard obvious jealousy.

"Even if it doesn't look like it, it's still a corpse, without a heartbeat or body temperature."

"There are no wounds on your body, not caused by trauma; your face is flushed, and it doesn't seem to be sick or poisoned. I'm curious, how did you die?"

Qiao Xingnian was taken aback, and then asked, "How do you know there are no wounds on my body?"

Liu Man looked away guiltily, and said, "I'm just idle and bored, just looking around."

"What kind of random method?"

"It's just casual, you say you are a big man, what is there to be ashamed of, I just took a look, and I didn't do anything to you."

"So you've seen me all?"

"No, I didn't look at the key parts, and I'm not a hooligan."

Speaking of this, Liu Man was stunned for a moment, and said with a strange expression: "You didn't die because of something wrong there, did you?"

"Where it's cool, stay there. You say you're a girl, why are you so shameless!"

"Infuriated?"

Qiao Xingnian didn't bother to talk to her anymore, so he directly gave her a gag talisman, and her ears immediately cleared up.

"I warn you, if you touch my corpse again, I will send you directly to Hades, and then you will have a good taste of what pain is."

Liu Man kept opening and closing his mouth, but he couldn't hear his own voice. Thinking about the spell that suddenly ignited just now, he immediately understood what was going on.

Liu Man wrote, expressing that he would stop talking too much, but Qiao Xingnian ignored her and went straight out of the town bell.

Back at the bottom of the water, Qiao Xingnian found that the sky was already bright, and thought about shining in through layers of obstacles.

With the light, the surroundings are clear at a glance. Not far from him, there is a human-shaped object wrapped in a black plastic bag, with only a thick black head sticking out, which is particularly scary under the water.

Qiao Xingnian floated over and saw clearly the tied stones under the black plastic bag.

Qiao Xingnian recited the incantation silently, pinched his fingers, and suddenly a cluster of faint blue flames ignited on the two raised fingers, ignoring the water flow and burning peacefully, and burned the rope tied to the corpse, and the body without heavy objects Pulling, the body immediately floated up.

After waiting all night, Qiao Xingnian didn't come back. Tao Hui was very anxious, but he didn't dare to go into the water alone. When the sun rose, he had to find a place with thick trees to hide.

Looking at the calm water, Lin Nanyue frowned, feeling a little uneasy.In his perception, Qiao Xingnian was not only extremely smart, but also powerful in spells, as if nothing could stop him.But he forgot that Qiao Xingnian is not omnipotent, otherwise how could he be murdered.

But they have different paths, and he is an ordinary person who knows nothing, even if he wants to help Qiao Xingnian, he doesn't know where to start, so he can only look at the water at a loss.

"Buzz buzz buzz", the phone vibrated suddenly, Lin Nanyue took it out hastily, and was a little disappointed when he found out that it was Sun Jiajia calling.He took a deep breath and connected the phone.

"Hey, did you find the body?"

"Captain, we found a corpse, but the corpse was boneless, and Tang Ke said it was a man."

"Understood, I'll go back right away."

Lin Nanyue hung up the phone and looked at the water again, only to find a black object moving on the water.
