The captain and his wife thought about it again and again.
Finally, he shook his head and said, "Princess, please calm down. I just can't remember it no matter how hard I try. It's really strange."
An Li did not blame them and asked them to stand up. She had already expected this result.
Then he asked, "Do you remember what that woman looked like?"
"Have the artist draw it and send it to Fulai Inn."
Then.
An Li took Chun Liu and Chun He back.
When we arrived at the inn, the guards who had been sent out to get details had returned.
He reported everything to An Li one by one, and it was exactly the same as what An Li knew at the Pavilion Chief's Mansion.
After eating two snacks on the first floor of the inn, An Li returned to his room.
"Mom, you're back!"
Ming Xin said softly, got up from the ground and threw herself to An Li's legs.
An Li pinched his daughter's cheek and placed the roster on the table. "Shuangying, go get a basin of water for the young lady to wash her hands."
She saw that her daughter's hands were covered with mud, and she took a closer look, and found that she had been playing with mud.
Frost Shadow bowed and stepped back.
"Xinbao, you can't play all the time. The mud is very dirty." An Li said with a smile and wiped off some of it with a handkerchief.
"Just play for a while~"
Mingxin snuggled in her mother's arms, pouting.
At this time.
Frost Shadow came in carrying a wooden basin.
"Young lady, let me wash your hands for you." Frost Shadow smiled slightly.
Mingxin stretched out her chubby little hands and ran over.
An Li took a look at it with a smile, then took the roster and started looking at it, hoping to find some clues from it.
Sudden!
She noticed a point!
Except for the first girl who disappeared, two girls disappeared every five days.
Counting the days, today is exactly that day.
A young girl had already gone missing in Daquan Town early in the morning.
Who will the other one be?
An Li was frightened and broke out in a cold sweat. She wanted to catch the murderer urgently.
"Mother, what are you looking at?"
Mingxin washed her hands and walked over to look at the roster.
She doesn't recognize the words on it!
This word is somewhat similar to that in the divine realm, but it is completely different.
"The names on the book are all my missing sisters."
"We should stay here for a few days to catch the murderer, Xinbao, what do you say?"
An Li closed the booklet and said seriously with a slight frown.
"good!"
"Mom is awesome, Xinbao is also going to catch the bad guys."
When Mingxin heard this, she wondered how she could be left behind in the task of catching the bad guys.
She is a good baby!
"Knock!"
"Madam, the head of the pavilion has sent someone to deliver the portrait."
Chunliu knocked on the door and Chunhe came in with a portrait.
An Li didn't expect that the pavilion chief was so fast.
He took the portrait and spread it on the table, and the face of a strange woman came into view!
Half of his face was covered with twisted scars, and the other half was very ordinary, and would be an ordinary face if thrown into the crowd.
But those eyes were full of viciousness!
Like the eyes of a poisonous snake, it makes you uncomfortable if you look at it for a long time!
An Li took out the portrait of Li Yujiao's original appearance and compared it.
They are like two different people!
If she didn't speak, even if Li Yujiao's biological mother was here, she wouldn't be able to recognize her.
"Madam, is this Li Yujiao?"
"It's so ugly..." Chunhe curled his lips. It would hurt his eyes if he looked at it for one more moment.
The maid who was in charge of cooking in the mansion was a hundred times prettier than her.
An Li had never imagined it would be so ugly.
It is speculated that she might have disfigured herself and changed her appearance because she was afraid someone would recognize her.
"Mother, let me take a look..."
Mingxin grabbed the edge of the table with both hands and stood on tiptoe, but she couldn't see anything!
She wanted to see what the bad woman looked like now.
How ugly is it!
"Forgot about you little one."
An Li smiled, picked up his daughter and put her on his lap, then pulled the portrait forward.
“Huh!”
"Where did you come from? You ugly freak, so ugly!"
Mingxin covered her eyes with her hands and didn't want to look anymore.
An Li and the others couldn't help but smile.
She put the portrait away and said, "Chunliu, has the person who delivered the portrait left?"
"Madam, he hasn't left yet. He said he would go back after you have reviewed it and found no problems."
Chunliu said.
"Then tell that man to have the headman send someone to inform all the people. From now until the next day, every household must stay at home and keep an eye on their daughter."
She estimated that the murderer would strike soon.
An Li continued, "Chunhe, find someone to draw dozens of portraits, send them back to Yongjing, and spread the word."
Chunliu and Chunhe nodded and went down.
An Li and his daughter were waiting at the inn.
Until the evening, just before going to bed, there was no news of which daughter was taken away by the murderer.
An Li thought that the murderer would not take action tonight.
He relaxed a little and hugged his daughter to rest.
Of course, there are maids and guards guarding outside the door!
All was silent.
On spring nights, there are only a few insects chirping and no other sounds.
midnight.
A puff of green smoke drifted into the room.
Then, a vague black shadow hidden behind the green smoke also appeared.
He only had two big red eyes, and no other facial features could be seen.
The black shadow looked at the person on the bed, his big eyes lit up with excitement!
Two black, sharp claws grabbed Mingxin who was sleeping and talking in her sleep!
"Get out of here!"
"Don't even think about hurting my son!"
Suddenly, An Li opened his eyes, picked up the dagger under the pillow, and stabbed it.
But the dagger penetrated the shadow's body without causing any damage.
