Chapter 74：

The case of the haunted house was simply killed by a "person". According to reason, the Xincheng Sub-bureau was able to handle it to the point where it was found, and Tang Xi was no longer needed.

However, Tang Xi felt that since she received Ou Jian's "remuneration", she had to do something.

After getting the consent of Simple Soul, she used "empathy" once to let her consciousness enter simple memory, and re-read what happened that day.

This method is much gentler than violent soul searching, and it does less damage to the soul, but it requires the cooperation of the ghosts themselves. Otherwise, let the divine consciousness of others enter, but this person's divine consciousness is far stronger than himself, that is. A thought can make him fly away.

Of course, if the ghost is too strong and the celestial master is too weak, the use of empathy at will is to live and die.

Simple Although he didn't know who killed him, he was also a fan of the authorities. Tang Xi looked at the memory of that day from the sidelines and knew that he had actually seen the murderer during the day.

It can be guessed from the dialogue that the two murderers should be the props masters hired by the haunted house before. They just procrastinated and liked gambling and were fired. The two of them lost all their money that day, and they happened to be near the playground. They planned to come over to see if any acquaintances could borrow some money. The result was simple and unhappy. Until the evening, the two people who hadn't borrowed money suddenly came up with the idea of ​​going to a more familiar haunted house to see if there was something that could be stolen and sold for a few dollars-but they did not expect to work in the haunted house until 12 o'clock in the evening simply because of rushing to work. Never left.

Seeing that the sound was about to turn back, one of them, anxiously, grabbed a spray gun lying on the wall and smashed it.

The simple memory ends here, but the rest of the matter can be speculated. The two are afraid of being arrested, and they know the simple family situation, and feel that as long as the body is not found, no one will specifically find a worker who leaves without saying goodbye. , Even if the eldest lady is unwilling to do so, the boss will definitely be unwilling to ask for it, let alone look for it.

But in a modern city, the two of them don't have a car, and it's not so easy to destroy the corpses. They can think of making people into corpses and hiding them in haunted houses as props. The two of them are really quick-witted.

Tang Xi withdrew from the state of empathy, settled down, and used spiritual power to manifest the appearance of the two prop masters.

"Excellent!" Yan Shifei was full of joy, "I'll ask people to make portraits. First find them and control them, and then look for evidence!"

Tang Xi smiled, very good, and resolved satisfactorily.

Sure enough, within two days, the suspect was arrested.

These two prop masters killed people. For a year, they lived in horror every day, and their lives were depressed. When the police broke in, they were relieved and happily slapped them all. They also saved Yan Shifei from looking for the evidence chain. Trouble.

For such a bad and long-standing case, the Xincheng branch solved the case in three days. Although the facts of the case could not be disclosed due to the large number of tourists in the haunted house, the bureau also gave a reward, just in time for the year before, and an extra year-end bonus. NS.

After the Christmas weekend, there is a monthly exam. Several people in Class 9 had stable results and no surprises. But after New Year's Day, it was the final exam soon, Tang Xi pushed all the things that had nothing to do with studying, and concentrated on preparing for the exam.

In the end, when the results came out, Tang Xi barely managed to squeeze into the first red list of the top 100 in his grade.

Yu Mingfan, the devil tutor, is still very dissatisfied...Although this has made great progress, it is still half a year before the college entrance examination. However, such a smart person can be better if he concentrates on studying!

On the last day of the semester, the school re-announced the class adjustment.

According to the average score of the two exams at the end of the term, there will be more or less staff turnover in each class.

Qi Sihui transferred to Class Two, but there was Xia Shuang in Class Two, even if she was timid, she was not too upset.

What is surprising is that Tang Xi and Cheng Yihang, their results, it is no problem to move to Class 3 and Class 4 at least, but both of them refused.

In Tang Xi’s words, anyone who wants to learn can learn well anywhere, and a teacher with a high level is not bad. Just like Teacher Li who teaches chemistry, he has to take four classes, six and nine by himself. Isn't it the same as what he taught?

Although Wu Hai was a little sorry, he was still very happy. Tang Xi and Cheng Yihang stayed in the 9th class to get the average score. This is his performance bonus!

Seeing that there are not a few days left in the year, on the twenty-seventh of the twelfth lunar month, Chu Li suddenly began to pull her out to buy New Year goods.

"The two of us, can we just make something to eat?" Tang Xi was inexplicable.

"No, add two more." Chu Li said, picking up the couplet from the booth, a little troubled, "Do you want to post this on our door?"

"Don't, buy red paper, and let Yun Qi write it back." Tang Xi replied.

"Okay." Chu Li put down these prints decisively.

"Who will spend the New Year with us?" Tang Xi followed and asked curiously, "Does anyone from your family come to Jiangnan City?"

"I have no family." Chu Li shrugged.

"Are there any relatives?" Tang Xi was taken aback.

"Death." Chu Li answered without hesitation.

Tang Xi suddenly felt not to ask too much. Before she wanted to find Chu Li as a guardian, of course, she had understood the general situation. After all, Chu Li’s background and experience were public. At the beginning, his undercover overseas organization was completely annihilated. The military and police have set a benchmark for heroes.

Chu Li never mentioned his family. He only knew that his parents had died, but he didn't expect that he had no relatives. Couldn't his parents be orphans?

Just looking at Chu Li's expression, it was definitely not a happy thing.

"Yesterday, Pei Qingzhi asked me if I would go to his place for the New Year. By the way, I said that the old house is too noisy, it is better to come to our house." Chu Li said again.

"He agreed?" Tang Xi was dumbfounded.

"The old man agreed." Chu Li raised his eyebrows and said coolly, "As soon as you finish the final exam, Pei Yuan and Li Qingxue were packed and thrown on the plane. In the old man's words, the son-in-law spent the New Year abroad alone. What's the matter with Ryo, the family must be reunited."

"Puff..." Tang Xi couldn't help being amused.

She likes Old Man Pei very much. Although she has feelings for her children and grandchildren, she will not be influenced by feelings.

"The second room and the third room of the Pei family have always lived in the old house, but you also know..." Chu Li hesitated for a moment. That kind of unbearable thing, the old man no longer thinks about his old feelings, and he doesn't want to endure them anymore."

"Does the Pei family want to separate?" Tang Xi said in surprise.

"Yeah." Chu Li nodded, "Pei Qingzhi didn't even shy away from family ugliness, saying that it was the old man who gave the death order and asked the two bedrooms and three bedrooms to move out of the old house before New Year's Eve."

"I can't cover such a big matter... Hey, isn't it only three days left?" Tang Xi only reacted halfway through his speech.

"Don't worry, there are so many houses in the Pei family. As long as you want to move, it will take a long time." Chu Li sneered.

Tang Xi knows, he just wants to drag around, wanting to make the old man change his mind. No wonder the old man doesn't even want to spend New Year's Eve at home, because he is afraid that he is annoying.

"So, let's just join together for the New Year, and we can join together a table of mahjong after dinner." Chu Li said, adding, "However, gambling is not allowed."

"Hahaha, worthy of you." Tang Xi laughed, and pushed him aside, looking into the front of the stall to choose the sunflower seeds and candies he liked.

"I'm going to buy red paper." Chu Li walked away knowingly.

"There are also brushes and ink!" Tang Xi shouted, "The couplets at home are not big enough!"

"I know." Chu Li waved his hand.

"Little girl, this pine nut candy is delicious, not sweet and not sticky." The boss happily recommended.

"Okay, give me some. And this, this and this!" Tang Xi nodded happily.

This is the largest New Year Fair in Jiangnan City. Although there are so many people, there are so many stalls. She has never been to such a place before. It's quite fresh and doesn't feel crowded.

The boss quickly helped her put all kinds of snacks into different categories, weighed them, and worked out the total price.

"Thank you, uncle." Tang Xi carried a plastic bag full to find Chu Li.

Many stalls passed by along the way.

A pack of balloons of various colors, blowing back to decorate the room.

A pair of palm-sized Ari dolls wearing the golden boy and jade girl's clothes, very cute and auspicious!

Eight treasures rice is a must have this New Year's Eve!

While walking and buying, her hands were covered with things before she knew it.

"Are you... robbed?" Chu Li saw her with a look of shock.

"Take it!" Tang Xi threw most of the bag to him, then he was relieved, "Have you bought it? Get more red paper. I'll go back and cut the window grilles myself."

"Enough." Chu Li paid, and took a large pack of pen, ink and paper.

"What else to buy?" Tang Xi asked.

"Want to set off fireworks?" Chu Li thought for a while.

"Can you set off fireworks in Jiangnan City?" Tang Xi was a little tired at first, and she became energetic when she heard these words.

"Different regions and time periods." Chu Li explained, "However, in the two hours between 11pm on New Year's Eve and 1am on New Year's Day, the city can be released except in dangerous areas."

"Then I want a lot!" Tang Xi's eyes were bright.

In the past, she was the only child in the entire sect when she was a child, and no one would buy her fireworks. When she grew up, she became the head of the profound sect. Everyone respected and feared her and assumed that she couldn’t be so naive. Matter, and she was too embarrassed to say that she wanted to play.

Every time I look at the smiling faces of the children being blushed by the fireworks in the company of their parents, it is not that I am not envious, but I always think if I can do this too.

"Put these things in the car first." Chu Li was helpless.

The two squeezed out of the crowd with big bags and small bags.

In the past few days, the parking lot of the venue itself is completely insufficient. The management has specially planned the square at the entrance for activities as temporary parking spaces, and the area A to F has also been intimately marked for easy search.

"It seems to be the front row." Tang Xi looked at the street signs and looked for it.

"Forget it, you wait for me here, I will take the things over." Chu Li said.

"Oh." Tang Xi blinked and unceremoniously stuffed him with the bags in both hands.

Chu Li smiled. Although the image is a bit ridiculous, this weight is not a big deal in his eyes. When training physical fitness, the iron wristbands that he wears are much heavier than these groceries.

Tang Xi looked around, found a place with few people, leaning on a telephone pole, took out her mobile phone and sent WeChat: Chinese New Year together?

Pei Qingzhi second reply: Yes, welcome? Take a look of a pitiful Ari begging to be petted.

Tang Xi chuckled, and returned a soldier who smoked: My family has a large population, so remember to bring enough food.

Pei Qingzhi: Ensure enough pipe!

Tang Xi hesitated and started typing: Don’t be angry, don’t...

"Be careful!" Suddenly, Chu Li shouted sharply behind him.

Tang Xi was stunned and looked up, but saw a black car as if it had no brakes. It suddenly turned from the front lane and hit her. In the temporarily planned parking lot, the cars were parked full, and the passage was only the width of one car. There was no room for dodge at the position she was standing at the moment.

"Get out of the way!" As soon as Chu Li put his things, he saw this scene when he walked over, and immediately ran away, but he couldn't be faster than the car, so he could only remind him first.

Fortunately, Tang Xi reacted very quickly. She was holding her mobile phone in one hand and the telephone pole in the other. He circled half a circle, and jumped up into the air, jumped onto the top of the car that was out of control, ran a few steps along the inertia, and jumped. Down, rolled a circle on the ground to relieve the momentum, stood up, unscathed.

"what!!!"

"Papa......"

The passerby screamed first, and then after watching the performance comparable to the martial arts drama, half of the exclamation was swallowed back, replaced by applause.

Tang Xi patted the dust on her clothes, her expression dissatisfied.

The white down jacket on her was the one that Pei Qingzhi had just returned after washing it up. Isn't this unlucky? Wear ashes once you wear it.

Chu Li breathed a sigh of relief, slowed down, and wiped the sweat from his head.

After the black car missed Tang Xi, it suddenly stopped.

"Hey! How did you drive the car? I almost ran into a little girl, so I didn't come down to apologize!" An impatient man knocked on the driver's window dissatisfied.

It's just that the glass on the window is covered with a dark film, so you can't see the people inside.

Chu Li frowned slightly, his face darkened, and suddenly, his pupils shrank, and he shouted sharply: "Get out of the way! Stay away! Danger!"

Before he could finish a sentence, the black car moved again.

"Say about you! You...wow!"

The car shifted into reverse gear and rushed out again quickly.

The clothes of the man who was originally going to reason with him was taken by the mirror and almost fell into the mud. Fortunately, the wife on the side pulled a hand and shouted in shock, "You are crazy!"

"Xiao Xi let go!" Chu Li quickly drew the gun and opened the safety bolt, without aiming, and fired directly.

This posture is definitely not a road killer, but really terrible!

"Who did I provoke? Would you like to be so cruel!" Tang Xi was stunned.

However, the black car also drove fast in reverse, smashing several cars parked in the parking spaces along the way. Chu Li's first shot was missed and hit the ground as a warning, but it had no effect. The second shot directly exploded the left front wheel.

The car shook and lost its sense of direction, but the driver's driving level was indeed superb, and the car still swayed into Tang Xi.

Tang Xi cursed secretly, with a flick of her finger, the line of spiritual power was wrapped around the height of the telephone pole, and the whole person ran up along the pole at a 90 degree angle. On the roof.

"Bah!" The tail of the black car hit the telephone pole heavily. The power was so powerful that the trunk of the car was sunken in, and the telephone pole even tilted.

"Stop!" Chu Li was also angry.

Killing people in front of him as the leader of the serious crime team, if he fails once, he will come again. Is he really a dead person?

However, passers-by in the parking lot no longer dared to stop, and quickly avoided.

Seeing that the black car failed, it knew it would advance and retreat. The wheels turned frantically, turned 90 degrees, and galloped toward the exit, regardless of whether it hit people or not.

In particular, he burst a tire and his balance was unstable. No matter how good his driving skills were, he couldn't do nothing. The car seemed to be drunk. He crashed into six or seven cars along the way and rushed out of the parking lot.

Chu Li chased out a few steps, hesitated for a moment, and put down his gun.

This man looks like a desperado. If a tire blows out again without stopping, a traffic accident that may cause serious deaths and injuries may result.

At this time, the security guard of the parking lot also hurried over.

After all, the car that hit the person ran away, but there is one more dangerous shot here!

"Police!" Chu Li inserted the gun back into the holster, opened the certificate with one hand, and quickly dialed the phone with the other. "Xiao Liu, immediately notify the traffic control center to stare at me a car! Go out from the New Year Fair and head for the river. Go to Bin, Volkswagen, black, license plate number XXXXXX, suspected to be a deck or fake license plate. There are multiple scratches on the car body, the trunk is sunken, the left front tire has a flat tire, and above! Send someone to control immediately to avoid accidentally injuring the people... …What's the problem? Escape after an attempted murder!"

Tang Xi jumped off the ground and glanced at the phone, only to find that Pei Qingzhi had sent several messages asking her what happened.

Looking at it again, it turns out that she accidentally touched the send button just now and sent the half-written message.

Pei Qing sent his mind to Minhui, but did not respond to a message, and immediately guessed that there was an unexpected situation on her side.

Tang Xi first replied, "It's okay, turn around," and walked over with her mobile phone.

Chu Li has already ordered the security to evacuate the crowd in the parking lot, protect the scene, and then call for surveillance and wait for the police to arrive. He glanced back at her and was speechless: "Who did you offend again? You actually killed someone directly."

"How do I know?" Tang Xi was very aggrieved. "After Christmas, I have been studying hard every day, and I haven't done anything else. Maybe it's the prisoner you caught coming to your family for revenge!"

"..." Chu Li and her stared wide-eyed.

Such a case of deliberate homicide and even endangering public safety in a large court was extremely bad in nature. In less than 20 minutes, Xiao Liu took his team members to the Expo.

"Team Chu!" Xiao Liu ran over, took a breath, and looked around, "Where are the victims of the attempted murder?"

"Here." Tang Xi raised her hand blankly.

"!!!" Xiao Liu opened his eyes wide. How can't you think of this murderer?

In addition to Dayang, the other with him was Xiao Xue, who actually rarely went to work. The small girl was wrapped in a thick down jacket with a scarf and hat, and she was holding her baby laptop firmly in her hand.

"I think this case needs Xiaoxue." Xiao Liu smiled dryly.

"You take people to investigate the scene, look for witnesses, and see if anyone notices the driver's appearance." Chu Li said briefly, "Xiaoxue come with me."

"Yeah!" Xiao Xue nodded obediently.

"Oh, my fireworks..." Tang Xi complained.

"Hurry up, there is still time to buy if the case is solved!" Chu Li replied.

"Oh." Tang Xi still lacks interest.

Just want to spend a good year, how can it be so difficult!

In the monitoring room, the person in charge of the expo has been around seventeen or eight circles.

"Have you found it?" Chu Li asked directly as soon as he entered the door.

"Yes!" The person in charge kowtowed his head like smashing garlic, and hurriedly made tea.

Chu Li sat down directly in front of the monitoring screen, while Xiao Xue found Zhang Kong's desk and chair and started playing with her own notebook. Only Tang Xi took the teacup and thanked her with a smile.

Although I don’t like drinking tea, it’s nice to hold my hands warm in winter.

The staff immediately exported the previous monitoring.

First, Chu left the car and came in, found a place to park, and the two got off the car and walked into the exhibition hall talking and laughing. There was no abnormality during this period.

After turning on the fast camera, it can be seen that two hours later, Chu Li and Tang Xi came out carrying a pile of bags and passed under the camera again. At this moment, the black car rushed out and slammed into Tang Xi. .

"Ah!" The person in charge couldn't help exclaiming, his face pale.

However, after reacting, she turned her head to look at the girl holding a teacup lying behind Chu Li's seat and looking at the screen. Her expression was very strange.

Those two perfect avoidances, the action is so beautiful that you can shoot difficult martial arts action dramas without using a substitute without tying Wia-is this really what a person can do?

"That's not right." Tang Xi suddenly said.

"Yeah." Chu Li knew what she was going to say and nodded, "This car arrived earlier than us. It was either a temporary motive, or he knew in advance that we would come today, so he ambushed in advance."

"I think it was a temporary intention." Tang Xi thought for a while.

"Oh?" Chu Li raised an eyebrow and waited for her to explain.

"You see, the parking lot is so big, and it is divided into ground and underground. If it is an ambush in advance, even if we know that we are coming, we don't know where we will park." Tang Xi said naturally, "Look at how fast he rushed out, The angle, and it hasn't disturbed people before, it must stop nearby."

"Pour forward again." Chu Li ordered.

"Yes." The staff re-adjusted the monitoring to the moment they drove in, using this as a starting point, and continued to rewind.

Ten minutes, fifteen minutes, half an hour, one hour...

"Come!" Tang Xi's eyes lit up.

I saw the black car slowly drive in.

It was still time for lunch at this time. There were relatively more vacancies in the parking lot. Without any hesitation, the black car drove into an empty parking space and then opened the door and got off.

"This..." Everyone couldn't help being stunned.

The one who got out of the car was obviously a family of three, a couple in their early thirties. They seemed to have a very good relationship. The woman was holding a five or six-year-old girl in her hands, dressed very delicately.

No matter how you look at it, it's a happy family who is here to do the new year's goods.

"Is it... a mistake?" The person in charge subconsciously said.

"Team Chu!" At this moment, Xiao Liu rushed in and said with his mobile phone, "The traffic control center checked the license plate just now, but the license plate is real, but just five minutes ago, 110 received the police, it was this one. The owner of the car reported that his car had just been stolen!"

"Fuck me!" Chu Li couldn't help but cursed. "That **** stole a car with the right location on the spot. It's not that complicated at all!"

Tang Xi was also dumbfounded. The facts are really too simple.

However, even the car was stolen on the spot. If the traffic police cannot stop the car, it will be difficult to find the murderer.
