Chapter 37 The strange death

When she first got into the car, Lu Jiu thought Hu Sanniang wanted to take him to the county government in the center of Qingding City. After all, she had said before that she had signed an agreement with Jingyesi, and the official institutions of the entire Qingding City were basically there, and Jingyesi should be no exception.

Who would have thought that as soon as Hu Sanniang left the south of the city, he would go straight to the north of the city, which made Lu Jiu confused.

The Qifang is built in the north of the city.

This is a wealthy area in the north of the city. There are basically three-story buildings on both sides of the street, and they are also high-ranking officials and nobles in Qing Dingcheng.

Lu Jiu sat in the back seat of the car, holding the strap of the box in his hand, looking at the surrounding situation left and right.

Because there are not many residents and people with status, it is natural that they cannot take a palm fan like ordinary people at night and move a small stool to enjoy the cool and chat. In addition, civilians dare not come here to set up stalls and hawkishly, and the streets are very deserted.

However, just after turning a link, Lu Jiu immediately noticed that there were more than a dozen soldiers in official uniforms in front of a three-story house in front of a three-story house and two Jing'an Guards of Jingye. In addition, there were also many servants standing on the side of the house, and several people were kneeling and howling at the house.

The eyes were turned to the building behind them, and the lights were brightly lit, but the door was locked. Combined with the situation on the scene, it was obvious that something bad was happening here.

"Here, give me the mask."

Hu Sanniang drove to the side of the road and reached out to ask Lu Jiu for a mask.

Lu Jiu took the most ordinary type of wooden mask from the wall, without any special decorations, and even had two holes on his facial features. Compared with the crow masks he got from the Liu Craftshop, it was a defective product among the defective products. However, in the current situation, this type of mask is enough.

After all this has come, Lu Jiu naturally doesn't need to ask Hu Sanniang where they are going.

The crime scene.

Wearing a wooden mask, despite the air flowing through the eye holes, Lu Jiu still felt his breathing was dull.

Carrying the box beside him to his body, Lu Jiu followed Hu Sanniang, his eyes were always on the two Jing Anwei at the door, all of which were raw faces, probably not Ruan Qingyu's team, which made him feel relieved.

In fact, Lu Jiu's worries were unnecessary. The battle in the alley caused quite a lot of damage to Ruan Qingyu. She had to recuperate in Jingye Department recently.

One old and one young, plus two masks and a large box. It is difficult to avoid attracting attention without attracting attention. What is strange is that the two Jing'an guards at the door did not have any doubts when they saw Hu Sanniang's face, but instead showed a bit of relief that "finally came."

When both sides approached, Hu Sanniang took out a metal sign and handed it over. One of the Jing'anwei took it symbolically and glanced at it and handed it back. His eyes turned to Lu Jiu and paused.

"New assistant, something happened to the family before, so I can only let him take care of him first."

Looking back at Lu Jiu, Hu Sanniang briefly explained Lu Jiu's identity, and then asked,

"How is the situation? How many people died?"

"The family of three is not left, something is wrong... In short, hurry up and follow us, the captain is still waiting inside."

When talking about the situation of the deceased, two Jing'an guards who had seen the scene avoided the onlookers next to them and said in a low voice.

"knew."

Hu Sanniang responded, and when the two Jing'an guards turned around, they turned around and signaled Lu Jiu to follow.

Lu Jiu, who was not far from the three of them, naturally heard their conversation. He was surprised that Hu Sanniang could actually ask Jingyesi's people to wait for her and also roughly guess her profession.

Push open the building door without stopping at all.

Before Lu Jiu could see the structure of the house, he followed the three people in front to the second floor.

In the corridor, three Jing'anwei gathered together, as if discussing something. He noticed that Lu Jiu and the others who came up at the stairs stopped the conversation in a tacit understanding.

"The deceased inside is not an ordinary identity. It is prohibited to destroy the body. It is necessary to ensure his integrity, otherwise it will be difficult for us to do... In this way, if we can find the exact problem, I will apply for you in person."

The one who came out to speak was a strong man nearly two meters tall. Kuishuo's figure was hard to cover even in this uniform. Coupled with the scar on his face, standing there alone made people feel pressured.

There was no discussion on the case. He simply stated his requests and remuneration, and then waited for Hu Sanniang to reply.

"I can't dissect the corpse, I can't guarantee success. I can only say that if it's a particularly troublesome corpse, five merit points are not enough."

Hearing the other party's request, Hu Sanniang did not retreat at all because of the other party's body pressure. She sucked a cigarette gun and said slowly.

"Start work."

Take a step back and signal your subordinates to open the door.

Hu Sanniang and Lu Jiu stepped forward and watched the door gradually open.

"Tsk..."

Almost the moment she saw the scene inside the door, Lu Jiu heard Hu Sanniang spat in front of her.

Even Lu Jiu, who had imagined that there might be some bloody scenes in the room and was prepared for it, couldn't help but frown and vaguely feel discomfort.

This is the study room on the second floor.

The gas lamps on the ceiling were still on, illuminating the whole room very brightly. White smoke rose in the incense burner on the desk, emitting a unique fragrance.

There was no bloody smell or other strange smell as imagined, but Lu Jiu only felt creepy.

The young girl sat behind the desk, as if she was writing something at her desk, and her movements were very regular, but her pretty half-hooked face was covered with blood marks flowing from her eyes.

The simple-dressed woman stood by the desk, her right hand stretched out her index finger to point her paper in front of the girl, and her other hand was placed on the edge of the bench where the girl was sitting. The whole movement was quite smooth, and it was obvious at a glance that it was not forced to do so, but her face was filled with panic.

Finally, there was the man curled up on the floor in front of the desk, with his hands pressing against his face, his nails left scratches on his forehead and cheeks. Through the gap between his knuckles, Lu Jiu saw a twisted face filled with fear and despair, as if he had seen some indescribable horror before his lifetime.

“How did this be done?”

Although Hu Sanniang had warned him not to speak before coming, the scene in front of him still made Lu Jiu murmur subconsciously.

The man lying on the ground was undoubtedly extremely strange, but compared to the two people at the desk, his condition was actually the most normal one!

"Boy, put down the wooden box."
