Daoist, please stay

Tao Xi's heart skipped a beat.

"Who's dead?!"

Qiao Hang was also taken aback.

"What? Someone jumped off the building again?"

The eldest sister lowered her voice, with a look of horror and gossip.

"What jumping off a building? This time it was a murder! The whole family on the first floor of the second unit was hacked to death in the house! Are you scary!"

The massacre?

It can't be so evil...

Tao Xi's heart was pounding and he asked calmly.

"When did this happen?"

"Just last night. I heard that the screams were heard far away. At first I thought it was domestic violence. Someone knocked on the door to try to persuade him. When he saw the blood in the room, he almost died of fright. Isn't that true? The police have been busy all night, and the body has just been taken away for a while."

Qiao Hang never thinks of this kind of thing as supernatural, but he just thinks that he happened to encounter a serious criminal case, and he is quite curious while expressing emotion.

"Has the murderer been caught?"

"I heard no." The eldest sister said honestly, "If such a big thing happened, I must have run away long ago, and I can wait for the police to catch me. But don't be afraid, our neighborhood is full of sky eyes, and it must have been recorded. Run away Not his."

A few steps away, an old man watching the fun heard them talking deeply, so he also came over.

"I don't think so. Those who dare to kill people like this in this area must either have deep hatred, or have experience and preparation. At that time, he was not held down, and no one saw his face. It's hard to say whether he can be caught."

The eldest sister disagrees.

"You are talking nonsense. What kind of society is it now, and there are still people who can't be caught by killing people in the street? I believe that our police uncles will definitely be caught."

The uncle sneered.

"Hmph, you're quite optimistic. They're all gangsters, it's not that easy."

"You old man, why don't you look forward to something better."

"How do you talk..."

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Qiao Hang quickly reconciled.

"The uncle is right, and the eldest sister is also right, so don't quarrel."

The uncle gave them a blank look, and angrily led the dog away.

Tao Xi, who hadn't interrupted for a while, asked.

"Do you also live in this community?"

The eldest sister showed an embarrassed look.

"I'm not, I just opened a breakfast shop near here."

It turned out to be second-hand information.

Tao Xi thanked the eldest sister, dragged Qiao Hang, and walked inside regardless of dissuasion.

Qiao Hang was still a little scared.

"Tao Xi, why don't we come back another day? There was a murder just now, so the building must be sealed now."

Tao Xi walked straight to Building No. [-].

"It's all here, let's go and have a look first."

The murder occurred on the first floor of Unit [-], Building [-].

The unit next door to Fang Tongya's house.

Looking closer, it turned out that the entire entrance of Unit [-] was isolated by a yellow warning tape, and a few people in plain clothes stood guard at the entrance.

One of them looked familiar, and it was Police Officer Zhao whom he had just met two days ago.

After two days of not seeing each other, Police Officer Zhao looked even more haggard.

"Aren't you two from this community? It's okay, don't come here to meddle, go home."

Officer Zhao kindly persuaded them.

Tao Xi said that he was going to Fang's house to help the mother and daughter get some laundry and change clothes, and then left without staying long.

After hearing this, Lao Zhao sighed and greeted his colleagues, opening a small back door for them.

"It's a good thing that the two of you were timid and didn't come back to live here. Otherwise, if we catch up with today's size, everyone will collapse. Well, you two, hurry up and come back, get your things and come out quickly, don't linger. These units are considered cases." In the hair area, we need to focus on investigation."

Tao Xi thanked Police Officer Zhao and quickly passed the second unit.

Not knowing if it was a psychological effect, he subconsciously took a look in the corridor of the unit where the incident happened, and an inexplicable chill rose from his heart, shuddering.

He walked a few steps quickly and turned into the corridor entrance of Unit [-].

Fang Tongya's house is on the third floor.

According to what she described that day, there was a spare key in the gap on the top of the security door.

Tao Xi reached out and groped for it, sure enough.

Seeing that Tao Xi was so familiar with the road, Qiao Hang didn't have any doubts about the fact that the mother and son of the other party entrusted him to come back to get a change of clothes.

While waiting for Tao Xi to open the door, he looked around.

This is a pattern of three households in one ladder.

301 should be a two-bedroom layout with north-south transparency, occupying most of the floor space.

The remaining two are small units, 303 faces north and 302 faces south.

No wonder Fang's mother said that their house is the cheapest apartment in the second building.

The anti-theft door was opened smoothly, and the room was dimly lit and very cramped.

What should have been the living room and the balcony were divided into a small room. There was no natural light source in the narrow living room, and it was pitch black in broad daylight.

Tao Xi groped for a long time before finding the light switch.

Qiao Hang shook his head as soon as he entered.

"Isn't it uncomfortable to live in this type of apartment?"

For a residential area of ​​at most 40 square meters, two rooms must be allocated.

The remaining part and the porch constitute the living room of the dark room, just put a table and three chairs, and there is no space left.

The two big boys stood together in the living room, feeling a little unable to turn around.

On the left hand side of the entrance is the bathroom, so the door of the bathroom is facing the dining table.

From the perspective of Feng Shui, there are taboos everywhere in this house.

Qiao Hang doesn't believe in feng shui, but he also feels deeply uncomfortable with this pattern.

"The toilet is facing the dining table, so it's so annoying when you're eating."

Tao Xi said smoothly.

"Understand, understand. Ordinary people earn a lifetime, and if they can barely buy this house, they are considered to be among the best. How can they care about the environment?"

Qiao Hang nodded.

"makes sense."

At the same time, I deeply feel that Tao Xi has a noble personality.

A super rich second generation whose toilets are bigger than this house, can be so considerate of the people and think from the perspective of ordinary people, what kind of spirit is this!

Thinking about the last time Tang Hui had an accident, Tao Xi also spared no effort to help at any cost.

It seems that rich people are not all unkind for the sake of being rich.

Qiao Hang's appreciation for Tao Xi deepened, and he rushed forward to talk.

"Whatever you need, let me find it for you."

Tao Xi stretched out his hand and pushed open the door of the master bedroom, making up nonsense.

"Then you go to the child's room. She said she would bring a few exercise books. You can see if there are any."

Qiao Hang was ordered to seriously look for the exercise book.

Tao Xi carefully observed the master bedroom, which is the room where Fang Tongya said that she and her mother were in a panic in the middle of the night.

This is a typical one-bedroom master bedroom layout, and the things in the room are simple and tidy, and you can see it all at a glance.

Except that the quilts on the bed were piled up in a mess, probably because the mother and daughter were too busy fleeing to make them in time, other places were neat and orderly.

Tao Xi carefully observed every inch of the floor.

There is no dripping red and white liquid that Fang Tongya said.

If according to what they said, Father Fang cheated the corpse back home and left traces, it is impossible to disappear without a trace in such a short period of time.

He almost lay down on the ground to observe inch by inch.

The floor was clean, nothing.

Could it really be a nightmare caused by nervous tension?

Tao Xi couldn't figure it out, so he walked to the window unconsciously.

The master bedroom has a large bay window, which is regarded as a small balcony by the Fang family, and they usually hang some clothes to dry.

He opened the curtains, wanting more natural light to come in.

But he was caught by something on the edge of the window outside the window.

It was a small puddle of blood that overlapped and dried up.

It seems that something has been here for a long time...

On closer inspection, there seemed to be slight scratches on the window glass.

I'm afraid the nightmare of the mother and daughter of the Fang family is not just a nightmare.

But anyway, the house looks clean and clean now.

Tao Xi deliberately brought the stack of talismans left by Xie Qinglan.

In addition to some housekeeping and haunting remedies, he also stuffed a few sleep-soothing remedies under the pillow.

After thinking about it, he picked out a few talismans that were so gaudy that even he couldn't see what they were used for, and left them behind, and the rest were pasted inside and out.

Qiao Hang came out with two exercise booklets in his arms, and was dumbfounded.

asked with a smile.

"Tao Xi, what are you doing? Why did you post such a thing to others? How uncomfortable they feel when they come back." Tao Xi didn't want to explain to this atheist.

Just perfunctory him.

"This is what Fang's mother asked me to do. It's the same as hanging peach branches and willow branches. It's auspicious."

Qiao Hang still respects folk customs very much. Hearing this, he thinks it makes sense.

So help out.

Posting and boasting at the same time.

"Tao Xi, where did you buy this yellow paper? The paintings on it are quite interesting."

Tao Xi followed suit.

"No need to buy it, Xie Qinglan painted it."

Qiao Hang was immediately in awe.

"So Mr. Xie is still an artist? He really can't be judged by his appearance."

Tao Xi didn't bother to correct him, he just wanted to make a quick decision, and slipped away after posting.

There is nothing unusual here, and the lingering sense of uneasiness disappeared after entering Fang's house.

I don't know if it's because the house faces north, and he feels colder and colder in the summer, and even has a chill down his back.

Taking two clothes from the wardrobe, Tao Xi greeted Qiao Hang.

"I'm fine here, let's go."

Qiao Hang picked up the book on the dining table and was about to leave when a large drop of liquid fell on the back of his hand.

He shivered from the cold.

Looking towards the ceiling, Qiao Hang muttered.

"What's going on? Is there a water leak?"

Sure enough, the ceiling was soaked, and the water droplets tremblingly gathered into a large drop, which hit the dining table, and the water droplets splashed everywhere.

Qiao Hang hurriedly protected the book.

"This won't work. It's probably the leak from the 403 upstairs. If you don't care about it, the whole ceiling will be ruined when the family comes back. No, I'll go up and have a look."

Tao Xi originally wanted to tell him not to be troublesome.

Unexpectedly, Qiao Hang was so warm-hearted, he walked upstairs after walking out the door.

Xiao Qiao, I think you look like a leading man in a horror movie... If you don’t run away at this time, you’re so warm-hearted! 233333
