Xingnian Tea House

Chapter 91 The mask that suddenly appeared

Lin Nanyue took out his mobile phone and called Zhang Jianmin, and the call was quickly connected.

"Hey, Nanyue, how is the situation over there?"

Hearing his question, Lin Nanyue guessed that he had got the letter, and said: "Three corpses, two of which can be identified are Shang Di and Kong Han. The other one cannot be identified for the time being because the five sense organs have been destroyed. , but nine times out of ten it is Tao Tiantian."

"Five bodies found in one day..."

Zhang Jianmin sighed for a long time, and said: "I can predict tomorrow's news, our police station will be scolded in the trending search nine out of ten."

Lin Nanyue was also very helpless, he had always sent people to watch Wu Hai, but unfortunately he still killed Hao Fei and Meng Hao without anyone noticing.If the mastermind behind the scenes is the ghost general Si Ye, no matter how much they stare at it, it will be useless.

As for Huang Qinglan, if it wasn't for Qiao Xingnian, Lin Nanyue wouldn't have suspected him at all.It's not that he's not as sharp as Qiao Xingnian, it's just that he has never had contact with Huang Qinglan, and his impression of him is only from those materials, and Huang Qinglan's parents are very good at acting. doubt him.

Huo Chunping, on the other hand, has always been the object of Lin Nanyue's suspicion, for no other reason than because he had a criminal record before and was detained for fighting.

"Zhang Bureau, is there any news about Huang Qinglan?"

In order to reduce the workload of Lin Nanyue and the others, Zhang Jianmin took the matter of arresting Huang Qinglan on himself, that's why Lin Nanyue asked this question.

"Huang Qinglan's enthroned residence, including his parents' house, we have checked and found no trace of him."

"Boss Zhang, let's arrest him. With public supervision, our chances of finding him will be greatly improved."

"Apart from Wu Hai's confession, there is still no real evidence to prove that he is the murderer. It's not easy to issue a warrant."

"Boss Zhang, are Tao Tiantian's family members still in the police station?"

"Yes, I'm eating."

"The death of the three of them is very tragic, especially Tao Tiantian. I am afraid that the family members will not be able to accept it."

"No matter how they died, the family members will not accept it. You are also an old criminal policeman, can't you deal with this matter?"

Lin Nanyue sighed helplessly when he heard the words. He wanted Zhang Jianmin to deal with the family affairs, but Zhang Jianmin blocked what he was about to say.

"I see."

Lin Nanyue hung up the phone, turned to look in the direction of the factory building, and couldn't help sighing. It was completely predictable what would happen when the family of the deceased saw the body.Although he has been a policeman for so many years, he has always believed that facing the family members of the deceased is the most difficult part of investigating the case.

Sun Jiajia came over and said, "Captain, the reporter chose to report the case anonymously, and the phone number is also unavailable. Do you think Huang Qinglan reported the case herself?"

Lin Nanyue knew who the person who made the report was, and he also knew why there was no such person. He said, "If someone hadn't reported the case, and we were still trapped in the police station to check the monitoring, then he would have more time to escape. Why did he report the case?"

Sun Jiajia thought for a while and said, "Maybe he was demonstrating against us and declaring war? With his brutality of killing people, his psychology is obviously abnormal, and we can't use the thinking of normal people to think about it."

Sun Jiajia made a lot of sense, and Lin Nanyue couldn't refute it, saying, "Then check it out. But I insist that it should be a passer-by who reported the crime, and the anonymity is probably because he doesn't want to cause trouble."

Sun Jiajia nodded, turned around and walked out. She wanted to check around to see if there were monitoring facilities.

……

Tao Hui took a taxi back to Heping Community, but because he had no money, he could only call Qiao Xingnian.Qiao Xingnian went downstairs with his mobile phone, helped him pay the fare, and went home together.

Qiao Xingnian poured him a cup of tea and asked, "When do you plan to go back?"

"I won't go back for the time being, I will stay and help the boss." Tao Hui took a sip of tea and said, "Boss, in my current state, can I eat?"

"If you can drink tea, you can eat, but you won't feel full. Once you overdose, you will lose your soul power."

Tao Hui's eyes lit up, and he said, "Do you have snacks at home?"

Seeing this, Qiao Xingnian smiled, got up and went to the kitchen, and took some snacks from the cupboard.Tao Hui quickly reached out to pick it up, opened a pack of beef jerky, and couldn't wait to eat it.

Chewing beef jerky, Tao Hui couldn't help sighing, "I haven't eaten for a long time, it's so delicious!"

"Looking at the corpse, you can still eat it so deliciously, it seems that you have grown up."

Tao Hui, who was still eating deliciously just now, stopped suddenly, and unconsciously recalled the picture in the factory building in his mind, his face became ugly because of this, and the beef jerky in his mouth instantly tasted bad.

"Boss, if you don't want me to eat it, just say so, you don't have to be so sick of me."

Qiao Xingnian just said it casually, but Tao Hui didn't expect such a big reaction, and said strangely: "You have been a ghost for so long, and you haven't seen any death method. As for such a big reaction?"

Tao Hui put the beef jerky in his hand on the table, and said, "Boss, you didn't see how miserable that woman died, and she was thrown into a big vat full of feces by the murderer. The dense crawling is full of maggots..."

Tao Hui retched as he spoke, and quickly took a sip from his teacup. The clear aroma of tea immediately made him feel better.

"So miserable?" Qiao Xingnian was taken aback, and then he understood why Tao Hui had such a big reaction.

"That's right. The whole scalp was peeled off, the eyes, nose, and ears were cut off and thrown into the dung tank, but the mouth was sewn up, and the maggots left along the eyes, nose, and ears Go in the hole, vomit..." Tao Hui couldn't help retching again.

"Okay, okay, don't talk, I'm disgusted by what you say."

Although Qiao Xingnian has seen a lot of ghosts, including those who died, he has never seen one thrown into a dung tank. Hearing Tao Hui's description, he unconsciously constructed a picture in his mind, and his stomach also churned. up.

Tao Hui looked at the snacks on the table, and then at Qiao Xingnian, his eyes were full of grievances.

Seeing this, Qiao Xingnian laughed and said, "Look at how promising you are! How about this, to compensate you, you take all these snacks back and eat them whenever you want."

"Hey, Boss still loves me the most." Tao Hui smiled suddenly, and said, "Boss, I'll stay at your house for a while, if there's anything I can do to help you, you don't need to use Spiritualism anymore."

"Well, my brother went on a trip and won't be back for a while, so you can sleep in his room."

Qiao Xingnian was talking, when the phone suddenly vibrated with a "buzzing".He took out his mobile phone and looked at it, then connected the phone and said, "Hey, brother, have you settled down yet?"

"It's settled down, don't worry."

Qiao Xingnian heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and said, "I'm relieved that you're fine. Brother, you must wear the amulet I gave you, and don't lose it."

"I know, there is me on my parents' side, so you don't have to worry. But you, how did you make yourself so embarrassed?"

Qiao Xingnian was startled, and then said with a wry smile: "Brother, you are very well informed. Don't worry, those injuries are all fake, an illusion created by me. I just want to teach those perpetrators a lesson."

"Really?" Jiang Mohan said doubtfully.

"If you don't believe me, we can make a video call." Qiao Xingnian started the video call while speaking.

Seeing that Qiao Xingnian was unharmed, Jiang Mohan couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and said, "As long as you're fine. I was taken aback when I saw your live broadcast, and really wanted to fly back immediately."

"Brother, they are ordinary people and they can't hurt me at all. You just need to protect yourself and take care of your parents. Let me handle the matter here."

Jiang Mohan nodded and said, "Well, I will try my best not to let my parents know about these things, and I hope this turmoil will pass quickly."

"Don't worry, it won't take long, this matter will be over, and my parents will leave it to my brother."

The two talked a few more words, then hung up the phone.

Qiao Xingnian looked at Tao Hui, saw that he was concentrating on swiping his phone, looked at the time, and said, "I'm going to sleep first, you should go to bed early too, don't always think about playing with your phone."

Tao Hui looked up at Qiao Xingnian, and said with a strange expression, "Boss, are you gay?"

Qiao Xingnian was startled, and immediately understood that he had read the news on the Internet, and said bluntly: "I'm not sure about my sexual orientation, but I'm sure the one I like is a man."

Tao Hui opened his mouth wide in surprise, and after a while he said, "Boss, who do you like, do I know him?"

"I know." Qiao Xingnian said calmly, "Lin Nanyue."

"Team Lin?" Tao Hui's eyes flashed with surprise, and he said immediately, "No wonder the boss always helps him. It turns out that the relationship between you is extraordinary. Why didn't I realize it before?"

Qiao Xingnian couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Tao Hui didn't show any resentment on his face, and said, "Our relationship developed slowly after you left. It's strange if you find out."

Tao Hui looked at Qiao Xingnian gossipingly, and asked, "Boss, which of you two is chasing who?"

"Guess." Qiao Xingnian knew that as long as he answered now, many questions would follow. He didn't want to be treated as a gossip.

"No, boss, what relationship do we have, you are still hiding from me."

"I'm sorry, our relationship is not so familiar that we can talk about everything."

"Boss, if you say that, it hurts my heart. I regard you as a lifelong confidant and the most respected boss. Besides, we have experienced life and death together. How can you say that you are not familiar with each other?" Tao Hui looked at Qiao Xingnian looked distressed.

"Experienced life and death together? Why don't I remember this?"

Tao Hui's expression froze, and he said embarrassingly, "Boss, I will tell you if I have something to do. There is absolutely no secret. Do you want to reveal your heart to me?"

"Then do you think you like Liu Man?"

Tao Hui was taken aback by the question, then looked away guiltily, and said, "Boss, stop joking. She is a manly woman, not gentle at all, how could I like her."

"Okay, you don't have a chance anyway, it's best if you don't like it. I'm tired, so I'm going to bed first."

After Qiao Xingnian finished speaking, he didn't say any more, and went back to the room directly.

Tao Hui looked at the closed door and whispered, "I know it's impossible, so you still ask, really..."

Tao Hui didn't know what was wrong, she had only stayed with Liu Man for a short time, but she left a strong mark in his heart, and after he left, she would always appear in his mind from time to time.

When he realized what was going on in his mind, he planned to force himself to forget it, but at this moment Black and White Wuchang found him and asked him to return to the world to deliver a message to Qiao Xingnian.

His deliberately repressed mind suddenly became active, thinking: Back to the world, if Liu Man can be persuaded to take the underworld job exam with him, then the two may be together.

It's a pity that the sky didn't follow people's wishes. He came back, but Liu Man left. His love affair that hasn't started is destined to end without a problem.

"Hey, someone as good as me is doomed to have a bumpy road to love!" Tao Hui said with self-pity and comfort: "Let's go listen to ghost stories and keep the position of the big brother on the list. Maybe we can still be with the anchor lady." , to start a vigorous love affair."

As soon as Qiao Xingnian returned to the room, the talisman turned into a villain and floated in front of Qiao Xingnian, gesticulating with both hands, trying to express something to Qiao Xingnian.

"What do you want to say?" Qiao Xingnian looked at it suspiciously, unable to understand what it meant.

The spell jumped up and down when he heard the words, but Qiao Xingnian was still confused.

Looking at the pen on the table, Qiao Xingnian tentatively said, "Can you write?"

Hearing the words, the talisman stopped immediately, flew straight to the table, then walked towards the writing brush on the table, and stretched out his hand to try to get the brush.

But it is too small and too light to hold it at all, and finally took the pen out of the pen holder, and was pressed down by the brush.

Seeing it struggling on all fours, Qiao Xingnian couldn't help laughing, and reached out to pick up the brush.Seeing this, Talisman quickly got up, raised his hand in a very humane manner, and wiped the sweat that was not on his head.

Qiao Xingnian took a signature pen, unscrewed it, handed the refill to him, and said, "Let's write."

The spell took over the refill and drew on the paper with difficulty.

Qiao Xingnian sat on the bed, took out his mobile phone to check the news on the Internet, and found that his live broadcast video had been reposted hundreds of thousands of times, and the number of viewers had reached more than 300 million times, and it was still increasing rapidly.

Also because the live broadcast was forwarded, the public opinion of netizens changed. They vented their anger on Han Chong and tried their best to dig into their past.Soon, the absurd things that Han Chong and his cronies had done were exposed.

Men and women are not taboo, gathering for prostitution/chaos, fighting and fighting, all kinds of bad deeds are slowly picked up.Their comment section soon fell, and it was even more exciting than Qiao Xingnian's comment section before.

Qiao Xingnian's mood was not disturbed, and all of this was within his expectations. Most people on the Internet were ignorant of the truth and had no opinions, following the wind of public opinion.Today, because of one thing, he can't love a person too much, and tomorrow, because of another thing, he may point at that person's nose and scold him. He is already used to it.

Throwing the phone aside, Qiao Xingnian looked at the talisman on the table and saw that he was still struggling to draw it. He felt cute and a little funny at the same time.He stood up and walked over, looking down at the paper on the table, there was a stick figure drawn on it, the stick figure drew an angry expression, it was still trying to draw lines, trying to cover the stick figure.

Qiao Xingnian thought of the place where it followed Tao Hui, and guessed, "You sensed another person's breath in that factory."

Talisman stopped moving, nodded hastily, and then started drawing again with the refill, trying to draw something on the stick figure.

Qiao Xingnian looked at the lines drawn by it, and continued to guess: "You are saying that what you sense is not a human being, right?"

Talisman stopped moving again, nodded hastily, then put down the pen refill in his hand, and sat down on the paper, looking extremely tired.

"Since they are not human beings, they are ghosts. I have summoned three of them and failed three times in a row, so they are not them." Qiao Xingnian said thoughtfully: "It seems that it may be the ghost general Si Ye. people. But why did he appear there, and what purpose does he have?"

In the factory building, the work of collecting evidence was still going on. Lin Nanyue was keenly aware of a pair of eyes looking at him. He turned his head and looked over. He seemed to see a black shadow. He quickly took a flashlight to take a picture of it, but found that there was nothing there. No.

But the feeling of being stared at was still there. He removed the flashlight and looked over again, and the black shadow appeared again.Lin Nanyue was puzzled, called Yang Lin, and said, "Look at that position, is there a figure?"

Yang Lin took a flashlight to look at it, but saw nothing, and said, "No, captain, are you dazzled?"

When Yang Lin took the flashlight and shone it, there was indeed no one, but as soon as the light from the flashlight left, the black shadow appeared again.

Lin Nanyue stared at the black figure, and said, "You don't need a flashlight. If you look over like this, can you see the figure?"

Seeing Lin Nanyue's expression was wrong, Yang Lin looked over, but still saw nothing.He couldn't help but swallowed his saliva and said, "Captain, there is nothing, don't scare me, I'm timid."

Lin Nanyue turned his gaze away, patted him on the shoulder reassuringly, and said, "It's true that there's nothing there, it's because I'm dazzled, go get busy."

"Scared me to death!" Yang Lin breathed a sigh of relief, looked around, and said, "Captain, to be honest, in this wilderness, and at the scene of a murder, it is easy to come across dirty things. I thought the captain saw it." I shouldn't have seen it... Ah, bah, bah, no taboo, no taboo, I was the one talking nonsense just now, nonsense, stop talking, stop talking."

Yang Lin turned around and went back to the workshop, but Lin Nanyue looked in the direction of the black shadow again. Suddenly, the black shadow enlarged rapidly and rushed towards him at a very fast speed. He subconsciously wanted to dodge, but his body could not move at all. Can watch the shadow getting closer and closer.

Fear slowly enlarged in his eyes. Looking at those blood-red eyes, Lin Nanyue suddenly felt the fear of death. Qiao Xingnian's face appeared in his mind. There was only one thought in his mind. He hadn't seen Qiao Xingnian for the last time. Could it be that he died like this?

Just as the black shadow rushed in front of him, a gleam of light flashed, forming a mask around Lin Nanyue's body. The black shadow hit the mask and dissipated in the night with a "bang".At the same time, Lin Nanyue's body returned to normal, he couldn't help but bend down, panting heavily.

Liu Zheng outside noticed Lin Nanyue's abnormality, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask, "Captain, what's wrong with you, are you feeling unwell?"

Lin Nanyue turned to look at him, panting and said, "No...it's okay, maybe I'm too tired and my heart feels a little uncomfortable."

Hearing this, Liu Zheng quickly grabbed his arm and said, "Captain, let me help you to the car and rest for a while."

Lin Nanyue waved his hand and said, "You are busy with your work, I can go there by myself."

Liu Zheng frowned slightly, and said worriedly: "Captain, I'd better take you there, your face is frighteningly pale, I'm worried."

"Okay, then help me over there." Lin Nanyue moved a little bit, and indeed his limbs were a little weak, so he had no intention of rejecting Liu Zheng.

Liu Zheng nodded, helped Lin Nanyue out of the factory, got into the car, and said, "Captain, are you really okay? How about I take you to the hospital."

"No, go get busy, I'll just take a break."

Seeing this, Liu Zheng said worriedly: "The captain, rest for a while, if you still feel unwell, just call out, and I will send you to the hospital right away."

"Well, you go."

Liu Zheng didn't say any more, turned around and went back to the factory.

Lin Nanyue quickly took out his mobile phone and called Qiao Xingnian. The call was quickly connected, and Qiao Xingnian's voice calmed down his nervousness.

"Hey, Ayue, are you off work?"

"No, I encountered something just now and wanted to call you."

Qiao Xingnian stared blankly at the text on the phone, then frowned, and asked worriedly, "Did you see a ghost?"

Lin Nanyue was a little strange and asked, "How do you know?"

"The spell told me just now that it sensed the breath of the ghost in the abandoned factory building. A Yue, did you see him?"

"I saw it, but I only saw a pair of scarlet eyes. I didn't see what it looked like."

"Except for me, you can't see other grieving ghosts, but now you can see him, it must be because he let you see it on purpose."

"It should be." Lin Nanyue hesitated for a moment, and said, "He wanted to attack me, but when he approached me, a mask suddenly appeared on my body, blocking him back."

"Attacking you? Are you injured?"

Hearing Qiao Xingnian's concern, Lin Nanyue's heart warmed up, and he said, "No, he didn't hurt me, don't worry. I'm just a little strange. I don't know why there is a mask around my body, and he touched it. The moment it arrived, it disappeared without a sound."

"Reticle? What kind of reticle? How come I never found it?"

"The light in the factory is very dark. I only see the golden mask, but I don't see what it looks like."

"The golden, protective mask is most likely a vajra mask. Why do you have this on your body?" Qiao Xingnian was very puzzled, and said, "And why every time you get close to a woman, I feel like I'm being raped." Appearing by your side like a summoning? Is there any connection between you and me?"

Lin Nanyue was startled, and then said: "Xingnian, do you think we will be a couple in the previous life? What kind of contract have you made with me? Once the opposite sex approaches us, we will be summoned to each other's side."

Qiao Xingnian looked at the text on the phone thoughtfully, and said, "There is indeed such a possibility. It's just that I have never heard of such a contract. When I have a chance, I will ask about Black and White Impermanence."

Hearing that Qiao Xingnian agreed with his opinion, Lin Nanyue unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth, and said with a smile: "I used to always hear people talking about the Three Lives and Three Worlds. Although I didn't say it, I never believed it in my heart. Now I believe it." gone."

Qiao Xingnian understood Lin Nanyue's meaning and said, "I have always believed in destiny, and I also believe that you are the other half who will be with me for the rest of my life."

Listening to Qiao Xingnian's love words, Lin Nanyue's face felt a little hot unconsciously, and changed the subject: "I was very busy before, so I didn't bother to ask, is your live broadcast going well?"

"It's going well. Don't worry, it's not me who is being bullied by the Internet, but Han Chong and the others. In a short time, they probably won't have time to take care of me anymore."

"That's good." Lin Nanyue breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Huang Qinglan ran away, and we couldn't catch him. Although all the police forces have been mobilized, I'm afraid he has already left Hucheng."

"Why didn't you issue a warrant?"

"Now there is only Wu Hai's testimony, and there is no physical evidence, and the arrest warrant cannot be issued yet."

"Huang Qinglan sent me a text message asking for leave this morning. It should be to buy time to escape, but..." Qiao Xingnian paused, and then said: "But my intuition tells me that he probably hasn't left Lake City."

"Why do you say that? Is there any basis?"

"Wu Hai told me something today. He said that the ultimate goal of everything they did was me, and those people who died were victims of Si Ye buying them."

"For you?" Lin Nanyue recalled the previous interrogation, and asked, "When did he say that?"

"Just as you were going out, he said these two words silently."
