Chapter 116: The Mysterious Man Appears
The deceased's name was Wang Hao.
He is the pillar of the family. If Wang Hao died, only this widow and her son would be left in the family, and life would be very difficult.
The woman's expression was understandable.
This time, the arrival was unexpectedly smooth. The woman walked to the door, saw us, her eyes red, and then she said, "Are you Wang Hao's friends?"
I was stunned for a few seconds, and then I said, "Yes, we are Wang Hao's friends."
"Come in and talk."
"good."
The woman moved aside to make way for us.
When we got to the middle of the yard, the woman said to the boy, "Go and get a glass of water for your uncle and aunt."
"good mom."
The little boy ran in.
When I saw the woman like this, I was basically certain that Wang Hao was dead now.
When I saw the woman, I suddenly felt angry. This murderer who stole people's souls was really despicable. In a family like this, a 30-year-old man was the pillar of the family, but he had his soul stolen.
"Sister-in-law, when did Brother Hao leave?"
"He passed away three days ago, and the funeral has just been held. Our Ah Hao had a really hard life. He never enjoyed any blessings, and now he's gone just like that." As the woman spoke, she began to cry. At this moment, she looked very pitiful.
"Sister-in-law, please accept my condolences. The living people still need to be strong and live on."
I tried to comfort the woman, but this time she suddenly asked me: "Who are Wang Hao's friends?"
This question made us feel a little embarrassed.
"We are friends for many years. We didn't keep in touch for a while. I heard that he had an accident recently, so I came back to see him."
I said lightly.
When the woman heard what we said, her eyes suddenly brightened. She stared at me and suddenly lowered her voice and said, "I suspect our Ah Hao was murdered by someone."
"Huh? Why do you doubt it?" I couldn't help but ask.
"Because a few days before Ahao died, I kept seeing him talking to someone. Every time he finished talking, I would always ask him who that person was, but Ahao never told me."
As the woman said this, her expression became a little more serious.
"So you think Brother Hao was murdered, right?"
"um, yes."
The woman's feeling was correct. Wang Hao was indeed murdered. However, the person who killed Wang Hao was not a living person. It was most likely some evil creature with heavy yin energy.
Lu Haolin had a heavier yin energy before. These evil creatures were very powerful and could even kill the evil messengers from the underworld. It was obvious at a glance that they were not ordinary evil creatures.
"Then did you see clearly what the person who was talking to Brother Hao that day looked like?"
I then asked,
But the woman seemed to be . She looked at me, sized me up and down, and suddenly said, "They always met at night. I didn't even see the man's face clearly."
I paused for a moment and described Lu Haolin's appearance again.
I wanted the woman to make a judgment , but when she heard my description, she immediately said, "It's not this person."
"You haven't seen him before, have you? Why do you say it's not him?"
I was a little curious, so I went straight to the point.
"That's because that person is very tall. The person you are talking about is a bit short. It's not him."
The woman denied it based on the height, which made sense, after all, a person's height is easy to distinguish.
The woman kept shedding tears, feeling sad that Wang Hao left without having a good life.
I knew that even if I asked something next, I wouldn't be able to get anything out of it, so I said hello to the woman, gave her some money, and left.
Fang Nianci then whispered in my ear: "Chen Yang, it seems that your previous conclusion was correct. There is indeed more than one murderer."
I hummed.
"There are so many locust trees in this place, it's easy to hide, so it's not surprising that there are many evil things."
I spoke.
"But if there are so many murderers here, will we be able to deal with them then?" Fang Nianci's words made my heart sink again.
I don’t know how to answer Fang Nianci now, because I don’t have any good solution in mind at the moment.
If we report to the City God about the many evil creatures that have appeared here, this bastard will definitely ignore us.
The reason why he asked me to come here is simply to make me die here. If I go to find Cheng Yousi, I always feel like I will find him when I encounter something.
I can't owe you so many favors in the future.
Now that I have just become the God of the underworld, many eyes are on me. It would be unreasonable for me to rely on others for everything.
Seeing that I remained silent, Fang Nianci did not ask any further questions. Then we went to several more homes.
The results were similar, and several households had seen that person.
After comparison, we have a general idea of what this person looks like.
But it's just a vague impression, because everyone has different opinions and says different things, which makes the information a bit messy in comparison.
We walked from morning to afternoon, and when it got dark, all we knew was that an evil creature had appeared here.
And this evil creature will say a few words to the deceased before he or she dies.
But the soul of the deceased may not be taken away by this person.
this is a problem……
I thought about it, could it be that someone gathered the souls and then distributed them to the people below?
Around seven o'clock in the evening, my cousin suddenly called me and asked me where I was.
I told him the address and my cousin told me that he would arrive in an hour.
I nodded and told him to be careful in everything.
My cousin responded and hung up the phone. Fang Nianci and I stayed near the land temple. I didn't continue to visit, but sat here and began to think. I now felt that the whole case was a bit bizarre.
Now to be precise, this should be a gang crime.
As for solving this case, the only way to close it is to catch the leader of this gang.
I guess the previous Lu Haolin was only a part of it.
It’s a pity that Lu Haolin died, otherwise we could have gotten more information.
I looked at Fang Nianci and couldn't help asking, "What do you think of this case?"
Fang Nianci was startled, her eyes flickered, and she said unconfidently: "Chen Yang, are you asking me?"
"Yes."
"I can't really explain this, and I don't know if what I said is right."
When I saw this, I said to her, “Don’t be afraid of what you said.”
Fang Nianci listened to what I said and then spoke out slowly.
