Chapter 214 Sir, what do you think?
If he hadn't lost face in Yong County, he wouldn't have come to Shitou Village so early.
"I was the one who robbed the Chen Mansion. The reason was that after I won money at the restaurant that day, Liu Youran sent people to hunt me down in order to get back the winnings! But I really didn't steal the child!"
Xia Xing'er said uncomfortably, "As for the ghost that Madam Chen saw, you should have seen it too, in the woods. I wonder if you still don't remember it?"
When Duan Yu heard Xia Xing'er's words, he suddenly remembered the ghost he saw that night. His face turned pale and his body trembled.
No one except himself should know about his ghost experience? He didn't even tell Xiaojiu and the others! But how did his junior sister know about it? Does he remember telling her?
Thinking this way, he asked: "Junior Sister, how do you know I saw a ghost?"
"Because I was the one who released that ghost. That day, I just wanted to scare Helian Zhi and Ye Qingyu. Who would have thought that I would run into you later?"
Xia Xing'er didn't think it was her fault. The fault was that he came at the wrong time!
That's right! Anyway, he wasn't the one she wanted to scare at the time; it was just a coincidence!
Duan Yu looked at Xia Xing'er in disbelief. After a long pause, he finally spoke: "Junior...Junior Sister, you...what you just said...is it true?"
Duan Yu saw Xia Xing'er nodded.
"Junior Sister, you... you... you actually still raise ghosts?"
Why didn’t Ye Yichen tell him why his junior sister was so fierce that she even raised ghosts!
But even if he saw that ghost last time, he didn't hurt him, but ran away when he saw him?
It seems that he is still the best!
Junior Sister is a good person, so the ghosts she raises are also good people!
"My ghost isn't a real one, it's just a puppet, used to scare people!"
Duan Yu...
Did I comfort myself in vain just now?
It turned out to be a fake ghost, but it was no different from a real one!
If Xia Xing'er knew what he was thinking, she would tell him that although he was a puppet, he was a puppet with some intelligence.
However, he heard that the theft in Chen's house was done by Xia Xing'er, but he felt that Xia Xing'er was right and the Chen family deserved it!
He frowned again, his face thoughtful. "If that's the case, then there's no clue at all. I originally thought that the Chen family was robbed and Mrs. Chen really saw a ghost, which would be an important clue, but now that you say that, I really have no clue at all!"
It seems that this case is not an ordinary case. However, it is useless for them to worry. He is not the county magistrate. Let the county magistrate of Yong County worry about this matter. It’s a pity for those missing children!
Xia Xing'er kept frowning. She remembered that Tong Lao from Pansi Cave used children to practice. Moreover, she had just fought with the people from Guimen the day before and injured them!
A child disappeared that night. So is this incident related to the Ghost Gate?
It seems that she really needs to take some time to visit the ghost gate!
The night is as dark as ink!
Every household in the entire Yong County stayed indoors, and the streets were deserted. The streets that used to be very bustling even at night were now deserted, with not even a ghost in sight!
Chunyu Fei, the magistrate of Yong County, sat quietly in front of the desk, on which were placed the clues he had sorted out over the past few days!
Two more children went missing this evening. The people who came to report the case were an elderly couple who walked six miles to report the case!
Now the situation has spread from the county town to the surrounding villages!
If the murderer is not found quickly, more people will be injured!
Chunyu Fei's mood at this moment is just like the night outside!
He thought about it for several days, but he really couldn't figure out who had the ability to take someone away without making any sound!
It seemed as if the children disappeared in an instant!
At this moment, he also suspected that the thief who stole the child was the same thief who robbed the palace.
He was originally from a branch of a hidden family and wanted to do something to show his main family.
He was not unaware of the people's comments about him over the years, but he just laughed it off!
If he could solve this case, he could get a promotion and wouldn't have to stay in this godforsaken place anymore!
He needed political achievements, and this case was delivered to his doorstep, but he still has no clue about it!
Even his wife sent people to call him several times, but he sent them away!
Just as he was frowning, a slight noise came from the yard.
Chunyu Fei came back to his senses from his thoughts, turned his head to look at the courtyard, and saw the person coming, with an expression of surprise on his face!
There were a man and a woman standing in the courtyard. The woman was wearing a purple dress, the hem of which swayed gently in the wind, like a violet blooming in the dark night, mysterious and noble.
Her face was softly outlined by the moonlight, and her eyes sparkled with wisdom, as if she could see into people's hearts.
The man was dressed in black, blending into the night. Only a pair of eagle-like eyes were exposed to the air, revealing a sense of power that should not be underestimated.
He stood tall and straight, like a sharp blade in the dark night, ready to be unsheathed at any time.
The two stood side by side, surrounded by an inexplicable aura that made the air around them freeze. Even Chunyu Fei couldn't help but stand up from his seat, staring at the sudden man and woman, with an inexplicable premonition in his heart.
These two people will definitely be able to solve his worries!
"I wonder who you two are, and what brings you to my county office?"
Xia Xing'er originally had no good impression of the Yong County Magistrate. After all, his father-in-law, Chen Lizheng, had done a lot of things relying on him!
They came here tonight to test the true character of the county magistrate and the second to investigate the case of missing children. The county government must have more clues.
"We are new residents of Shitou Village. We are here to investigate the missing children case in Yong County!"
Xia Xing'er and Xuanyuan Yi had no intention of concealing their identities, so they told the truth.
It would be fine if this county magistrate is sensible, but if he is not, they don’t mind replacing him with one of their own!
When Chunyu Fei heard that the two were from Shitou Village, he immediately understood.
I think the two people in front of me are the exiles my father-in-law mentioned a few days ago.
He looked at the two people in front of him calmly, and the more he looked, the more surprised he became!
These two people were not ordinary people. Fortunately, the missing children case in recent days had delayed their progress and no one brought people to cause trouble for them, otherwise they would not know how they died.
Xia Xing'er exerted a little pressure, and Chunyu Fei suddenly felt a lot of pressure, with beads of sweat dripping down his forehead.
He didn't have this feeling even when he met the head of their Chunyu family in the past.
He had no desire to resist in front of Xia Xing'er.
"Master Chunyu, I think this case is quite difficult and not something that an ordinary person could do. What do you think?"
