She had too many questions on why the peony that had been cursed would be with Ye Cheng, why Uncle Zhang had clearly died, how could it be that monster, Deputy village chief and the people of this village? And what was that monster? There were too many questions she wanted to find out.
Ye Cheng unceremoniously pushed Lin Sisi away, his head was about to explode from the little girl's question. Eldest Miss, can you let me take a nap for an hour? "No, half an hour is good. Keep quiet, you will attract them here with your loud voice."
"Oh, good! "Then should I find something to block the entrance? Those people will find us if they pass through the entrance." Lin Sisi embarrassedly raised the corner of his mouth and stared at the opened cave entrance as he started to worry.
"No need, no need. You just need to shut your mouth and be a beautiful young lady." A finger pressed against Lin Sisi's lips, and after Ye Cheng did a silent action, he laid down on his side, and not long after, the sound of deep breathing could be heard.
Lin Sisi stared at Ye Cheng's back, there was an indescribable feeling.
It was just past eight o'clock, and a passenger ship was slowly docked at Fishery Island's pier. More than ten people alighted from the ship, and the ones walking in front were two dark skinned robust youths. The moment they got off the ship, they ran towards the fishing village.
The two young men barged into the Village Chief's house, pushing open the door and shouting, "Mother, I'm back!"
However, in the empty room, there was only the sound of a woman crying in grief. Hearing someone shouting, she walked out and saw that her husband and brother-in-law had returned. The woman started crying loudly.
The two young men were struck by the news, and they rushed to the place where the bodies were kept, their anger and sorrow driving them mad.
Deputy village chief consoled the two of them from the side. Seeing that a few more foreigners had arrived, his face darkened.
It turned out that after the village chief's two sons called their mother on the street and felt that things were not going well with each other, they called the police.
Two people died in a single night in a fishing village. This was not a small case, once the police received the report, they turned the case in to the Serious Cases Group, they were originally investigating the cruise case and did not pay attention to the murder case, but after hearing her colleague mention of Wang Fugui's name, she flipped through the case file, and realised that it was Lin Sisi who went there. She immediately felt that something was wrong.
Yu Mingxi called a few times consecutively. Since no one was able to answer the calls, as well as her acute sense of danger, Yu Mingxi clearly knew that something had happened to the two. She clearly knew that if even he had fallen into a sleepy state, then this Fishery Island would definitely not be simple.
Deputy village chief revealed a sincere expression after looking at Yu Mingxi's certificate, asking the police to definitely find the culprit. The village chief and Uncle Zhang were both good people in the village, so it was a pity that they died without knowing why.
Yu Mingxi agreed, then divided his subordinates into two parts, the investigation of the scene and the investigation of the surroundings started at the same time. Accompanied by the two reporters, he and Deputy village chief sat in Uncle Zhang's courtyard and asked about yesterday's matters.
The Deputy village chief told the story objectively. He brought the entire village to search the entire island, but didn't find the couple with the child as well as Wang Fugui. The village chief died in Wang Fugui's home and Uncle Zhang also died there. After the incident, the foreigner couple disappeared without a trace. The village chief's wife and eldest daughter-in-law were killed while they were being watched by the village chief, meaning that the culprit was still on the island.
"Why didn't you call the police when the village chief died?" The police should be notified of the murder, don't you know? " Yu Mingxi earnestly sat on the notebook, which meant that Ye Cheng and the rest were hiding somewhere on the island.
"We're just a small fishing village that relies on tourism to survive. If word of this gets out, who would come here in the future? I had thought to send someone to the police station after finding the culprit, aiya!"
Yu Mingxi berated Deputy village chief for a bit before leaving Uncle Zhang's courtyard. She walked around the island, and discovered that the Fishery Island was very big, with a forest at the back of the village. There were many treehouses and adventure facilities, and once you passed through the forest, you would find a cliff.
"Captain, we found something!"
Hearing his subordinates' shouts, Yu Mingxi ran out of the forest and headed towards the village. Two of his subordinates walked out of Wang Fugui's house, and upon discovering the village head's corpse, they found something that resembled metal, with traces of blood on it. The wound on the village head's body looked like a weapon, but the shape of the metal object was strange.
Yu Mingxi always felt gloomy when she was walking in Wang Fugui's house, as though someone was staring at her at all times. Because the murder case happened three days ago, the scene had already been destroyed by someone. There was also the faint smell of propylene paint in the air, and the house had been painted.
"Little Zheng, do you smell anything?" Yu Mingxi asked the assistant beside him.
Zheng was a top student who had just graduated from the police academy. This was the first time he had issued a mission to Yu Mingxi since being assigned to the homicide squad. He was full of energy. He took a deep breath and frowned. "There's a smell of medicine. This smell is usually used a lot in spa restaurants.
Zheng searched the house and finally found the scent in the grass. "Captain, there's something weird. This is the Wood Thief Grass, it clears the liver and clears the eyes, causing blood to flow. It's a medicinal herb, and after it is dried, it will release a pleasant aroma."
To confirm his speculation, Zheng even opened the door and pulled out the ashes inside. He found a lot of half-burnt grass among the ashes, he put one on his nose and kissed it. "Yes, that's the smell!"
Yu Mingxi raised her eyebrows. After smelling the scent, she turned her attention to the entire stove, the white wall pattern beautifully depicting the inheritance of a culture. It was just that the design was too new and rushed, and some of the details were not handled well, causing the dividing line between the old and the new to be very obvious.
"The wall colors are newly painted, the gray stalks of the wood thief grass still have the remaining warmth. Bring one person to look for rape, one by one, and don't spread them out." Yu Mingxi snorted, she stared at the stove for a long time before speaking.
"Boss, you suspect that the culprit is someone from the village?" Little Zheng asked nervously.
"Did you see the dog again?" "I haven't seen the dog yet." "Let's go, get out!"
When Deputy village chief saw Yu Mingxi coming out, he immediately went up to him. Officer Yu, it's almost noon, do you think we should invite everyone to have lunch before continuing? I've already told the villagers to get ready. "
"Village Chief is too courteous, there's no need for this meal. Come and accompany me for a walk. I also have a few questions I want to ask you."
Yu Mingxi purposely waved away the Deputy village chief, and the two of them walked in the direction of the forest. Arriving at the edge of the cliff, looking at the boundless ocean, she stood in front of the Deputy village chief with her hands behind her back, and said: "Tell me about this Wang Fugui, what kind of person is he?"
"Good man!" I will never do something like killing people without batting an eyelid! "
"Oh, so it's like that! "Then, who went to the house after he went missing? I think the stove and walls are very new!"
The Vice Village Chief paused for a moment before replying, "It could be that the house had just been painted. A few days ago, he went fishing with a fishing boat, and I saw him live by himself. His house was in disrepair all year round, so I decided to help him out a bit. Of all the village heads, only Uncle Zhang and I can have a few words with him.
Yu Mingxi turned his head and smiled sweetly at Deputy village chief. "I see that the greenery here is not bad. I wonder if there are any plants like medicinal herbs?"
"Officer Yu must be joking, how can we be affected by medicinal herbs along the coast like us? If we can't grow any more, we'll die!" The people who live near the sea eat the sea, they fish for a living. "
"Hm!" I'll take a walk myself, you can go back to the village first! "
After following the Deputy village chief's back as she left, Yu Mingxi walked down the mountain and found a hole. The messy surroundings had many traces of a fight. She had seen it on the wrist of the peony, and was impressed by the strange shape of each bead.
At the other end of the forest was the village. She knew that there was no place to hide, so she turned around and walked towards the cliff. She walked along the cliff until she reached the coastline at the other end of the village.
Lin Sisi sat alone in the cave, bored. The person who had said that he would sleep for half an hour had already slept for two hours, and now, he was not even able to wake up due to the sound of thunder. She curled her lips and wanted to go out to see what was going on outside, but she was afraid of the monster from last night. She was also afraid of the scene of the whole village being destroyed by the monster.
Just as she was thinking about how to leave the island, a familiar figure walked over from outside the cave. Lin Sisi saw Yu Mingxi looking towards her direction, but it was only a glance, and she had already walked past.
"Ming Xi, I'm here!" Lin Sisi shouted towards the exit of the cave. She was too excited, she did not expect to see Yu Mingxi here. " "Mingxi!"
Yu Mingxi stopped walking as he was walking along the coastline. She seemed to have heard Lin Sisi's shout, but seeing that the cliff, the white beach and the dark blue seawater, it couldn't be an illusion, right?
Seeing Yu Mingxi walking past the entrance of the cave, Lin Sisi lost all hope, she was about to immediately rush out, but a big hand pulled her back, she turned and looked at Ye Cheng's dark eyes, and felt the urge to cry. Am I hallucinating? "
"I can't go out now!"
Ye Cheng sat up, he did not know that the kid's method of concealment was not bad, and the cave was not fake, but Peony had placed a method of concealment at the entrance of the cave, so people outside would only see a side of the cave wall and would not know that there was a hole.
"Why?" Lin Sisi angrily shook off Ye Cheng's hand, she was not stupid enough to hear the inklings from Ye Cheng's words. What she saw was not an illusion. Yu Mingxi had indeed come to the island, then she must have already gone to the fishing village. Judging from her appearance, she probably had not met the monster yet, so she had to go out and warn her about everything that had happened.
"Calm down!"
