Xiao Xiao did not respond.

He also raised his head and looked at the branch where Meng Jixi was gaze.

Is it this branch?

After thinking about it, he raised his hand and held a branch above it, jumped with force, and landed lightly on a branch next to the target branch.

In just a blink of an eye, Master Xiao, who was standing beside him, ran to the tree and looked at Master Xiao who suddenly entered his sight. Meng Jixi:...

"Master Xiao?"

Then he realized what Master Xiao wanted to do and closed his mouth.

......

Xiao Xiao approached the branch the girl used to hang and took a closer look.

The worn bark clearly told Xiao Xiao where the rope was wrapped before.

He reached out and rubbed the entangled marks a few times. After a few breaths, he looked up at the surroundings.

His brows frowned slightly.

......

Just when he wanted to jump off the tree, he paused with his eyes hanging back.

He bent down and looked at the branch where he was.

Just at his feet.

He reached out to touch the familiar trace.

Traces of being wrapped in ropes.

......

Two similar branches, two same traces.

One of the traces, his body bent down a little more, and he fell closer and smelled it. A fishy smell spread out and appeared faintly.

There was also a faint demonic aura mixed in it.

......

"Master Xiao."

Looking at Xiao Xiao who was jumping off the tree, Meng Jixi's expression showed a little nervousness and inquiry, "Have you found anything?"

"Um."

Xiao Xiao nodded, "It's considered some discoveries."

"real?!"

Meng Jixi was both surprised and happy, "I deserve to be Master Xiao."

Master Xiao was his last attempt.

If Master Xiao said he hadn't noticed, then he could only give up the fact that he felt something was wrong with these suicide cases.

Fortunately, Master Xiao never let him down.

These incidents... "Master Xiao, are there any problems with suicides these times?"

......

"It's hard to say now."

Xiao Xiao shook his head, he leaned his head and looked up at the two branches above, "I don't know if it was a coincidence or... intentional?"

......

"Master Xiao, what did you find?"

Xiao Xiao's words calmed down a little. He stared at Master Xiao with a burning look on his face.

"Please tell me!"

......

"Is the branch that wraps the rope when a girl commits suicide?"

Xiao Xiao pointed at the branch Meng Jixi was staring at before.

"Um."

Meng Jixi followed Master Xiao's hand and nodded.

"There are signs of wear on that branch after being wrapped in ropes."

Xiao Xiao's words made Meng Jixi a little puzzled.

He nodded, "Yeah."

Isn't this a matter of course?

The entire weight of a girl was loaded on that branch through a rope.

Girls are not children, and this one is not a thousand-year-old tree. The branches are so thick that they can ignore the weight.

It is no surprise that the rope is driven to leave traces behind by rubbing branches.

......

"The branch I just stepped on-"

Xiao Xiao moved his hand to the left for some distance and pointed to another branch, "There are the same marks on this branch."

"Same trace?"

Meng Jixi murmured and repeated, then her pupils shrank, "How could it be?"

"There is only one person hanging here."

"Did that girl failed when she tried hanging for the first time? She changed her branch and tried again?"

"No, how is that possible?"

......

"Master Xiao, how could there be two traces?"

Meng Jixi, who couldn't figure it out, asked Xiao Xiao, "What's going on?"

“It’s not clear yet.”

Xiao Xiao shook his head. The demonic aura on the branch cannot explain more except that there are monsters nearby.

It is impossible to even determine whether a monster is involved in the girl's suicide.

Because there is too little information, it is impossible to confirm whether the appearance of the monster was accidental or intentional.

......

“Are there any students absent in the school today?”

Xiao Xiao’s question stunned Meng Jixi, “You mean…”

"And another student who committed suicide?"

"After all, there are two traces."

Xiao Xiao thought, "This possibility cannot be ruled out."

"What about his body?"

Meng Jixi also had such a guess when he first heard Master Xiao say that in addition to the branch where the girl's body was found, there were traces on another branch.

But he soon rejected it himself.

Because there is less important things.

Corpse.

"Only one body was found here."

"If there is another person hanging himself, where will his body go?"

......

Eated by monsters.

Xiao Xiao's thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant.

But, if so, why only one body was eaten?

Small appetite?

Picky food?

Another corpse is more suitable for his taste?

......
