After listening to the Village Chief's words, Long Yueling's gaze swept across the faces of the surrounding villagers. He discovered that they all had the same expression as the Village Chief. Other than surprise and disbelief, they did not seem to be in a state of panic.
"Chief, are all the villagers here?" Long Yueling asked.
The old Village Head looked at the surrounding villagers and said, "Almost all of them are here. Aside from those who are busy with the funeral, only the father and son of the Old Zhao family have not come." However, that pair of father and son have a weird personality. They never like to join in the liveliness. If there's anything major in the village, they will never participate. "
Long Yueling nodded, thinking back to the words she heard from the big men in the tavern, she also felt that this Old Zhao father and son were extremely weird.
However, he couldn't come to a conclusion now, and he couldn't alert the enemy. Since he said that the dead would be bitten off by someone in the morgue, if what he said was true, then tonight would be the first time the truth was revealed.
"Get out of the way!" "When the authorities handle a case, everyone who is not involved in the investigation will have to leave!" Just as the villagers were waiting for Long Yueling and Yingsuiyue to give them an idea, the voice of the soldiers came from the entrance of the village. Arrogant and domineering, it sounded extremely repulsive.
However, the affairs of the Shangguan family had always been this flamboyant. It's just that the results are often unsatisfactory.
"Old Village Chief, since the government has come, it would be inconvenient for us to stay here any longer. Goodbye." Yingsuiyue said.
"Ai …" My two lord, please do not ignore us! " The old elder was so anxious that he once again knelt down and said, "Please stay here and help us find the real culprit!"
"Where is the village chief? Why haven't you come out to welcome us as soon as possible? " An officer, Yang Wei, said.
Long Yueling quickly helped the village chief up and advised: "The officials have been handling cases all year round, so they are naturally better at solving cases than us. "Village Chief, you should hurry up and welcome Constable Li back. You better not leave anything behind and make this matter even more difficult to handle."
With that, he cupped his fists at the old elder and pulled Yingsuiyue towards the other side of the village entrance.
"Two sirs …" "Two sirs …" The Village Chief followed closely behind them and wanted to urge them to stay, but how could he possibly keep up with their speed?
"What's going on? Who are those two people? " The officer's voice rang out again.
The village chief was so anxious that he could only stomp his feet and grind his teeth. He had no choice but to turn around and welcome Constable Li.
"Long Yueling, do you really plan to ignore this matter?" The Blue Phoenix jumped up and down on Long Yueling's shoulder and shouted.
"It's not that I don't care," Long Yueling said. "It's just that we don't have any definite clues right now, so we have no way of controlling it. "It would be better to let the officials check first so that the murderer thinks we have left. It would be more convenient to act tonight."
Yingsuiyue looked at her, knocked her head, and said: "You're such a considerate girl! "How can you guess what I am thinking?"
Long Yueling did not want to be outdone, so she jumped up and knocked Yingsuiyue on the head: "You understanding brat, why do you think the same way as me?"
Yingsuiyue scratched his head. He felt that if he hit his head back again, it would be a little too unmeasured. In such matters, it was best not to lower yourself to the same level as this girl.
"If this was really done by the Mist Repellent, they would have definitely come to chew on the body before the corpses are buried. Therefore, we only need to take a peek at the houses at night and wait for the Mist Repellent to appear. But the condition was that we must not alert the enemy, and we must not let Mist Repellent know that we will continue to interfere in this matter. Therefore, leaving in front of the villagers would be the best act of deceiving Mist Repellent. " Yingsuiyue said.
"You're right, he's worth teaching!" Long Yueling nodded with satisfaction.
Yingsuiyue let out a long sigh. He knew that he would probably never be able to escape Long Yueling's oppression in this lifetime.
"So? "Where are we going now?" Long Yueling saw through his "helplessness" and decided to respect him a little and give him decision-making power.
It was still early, and there really wasn't much to do. Yingsuiyue pointed to a nearby forest, and suddenly raised an eyebrow at Long Yueling, saying: "Go to sleep."
"You … What do you want? " Long Yueling protected herself even more tightly, covering the originally small area until now.
"What are you thinking?" Yingsuiyue's face was innocent as he said innocently, "We've worked hard these past few days on our journey. Furthermore, we're going to catch the murderer tonight, how can we not rest and recover? "What, do you have any other good ideas?"
"No, no …" Long Yueling felt extremely awkward and hurriedly put down the hand in front of her chest before striding into the forest.
However, Yingsuiyue continued to follow behind her, and said: "What is there to protect? Rest assured, people your age shouldn't be in any danger. "
Long Yueling took a deep breath and told herself, "I'll endure this."
After entering the forest, Long Yueling saw the footprints of many pedestrians. It could be seen that the people coming and going were very normal, so she said, "Let's go further, otherwise, if we were discovered by the murderer, we would be destined to get nothing tonight."
Yingsuiyue looked around, but there was no other place for him to stay. There were many people in the town, so he replied, "It's alright. At this time, the officials were sure to investigate this situation thoroughly. If the culprit was really from Fortune Village, they definitely wouldn't dare to leave the village so easily. If it wasn't someone from Fortune Village, they wouldn't have dared to come here. Furthermore, a person has just died in Fushu Village and it is extremely dangerous. Even though there are a lot of people passing by in the forest, no one would dare to come here for the past two days. "
Long Yueling looked at him and decided that he would still listen to Yingsuiyue this time.
It would be convenient to be with someone who was obsessed with cleanliness, but for things like "cleaning up", she did not even need to reach out her hands. In the blink of an eye, Yingsuiyue had already cleaned up the grass where they were lying on. All the green grass that had been dried up by the trampling of the pedestrians had already become lively again under the blowing of Yingsuiyue's Essence. It was green and soft and warm in the afternoon sun. Lying on the grass, comfortable.
He stretched lazily and saw that Yingsuiyue was lying down obediently, and couldn't help but want to take this opportunity to tease him. He pulled her hand and said, "It's still safer this way."
Yingsuiyue laughed, and held Long Yueling's hand tightly as a response.
"Wake up, wake up!" The noisy voice of the Blue Phoenix rang beside her ears. Long Yueling frowned, then extended her hand to open the Blue Phoenix flying around her face.
