Based on the identity of the deceased and his behavior before death, if there is no problem with the logic, the next deceased should be Li Tiezhu.
"Last night I suspected Li Tiezhu was the murderer, but now it seems that he can be ruled out as a suspect.
If we keep a close eye on Li Tiezhu now, we may be able to find the real murderer."
The next morning, many customers came to Chi Mu's store, and from their conversation, Chi Mu learned.
The body at the west end of the village has been found. The deceased's name is Jiang Shaobo.
He is a single old man, and his favorite hobby is fishing on the river at the west end of the village.
After knowing this news, Chi Mu’s doubts disappeared.
It seems that this murderer, like in his previous crimes, chose to kill the victims directly in the places where they usually lived.
The reason why Jiang Shaobo died by the river was that he happened to be fishing by the river, and the murderer killed him directly from behind.
Based on this information, it is speculated that Jiang Shaobo died yesterday morning.
Because when Chi Mu went to burn paper money yesterday at noon, it was twelve o'clock, and it started to rain soon after.
Jiang Shaobo is an old man in his sixties. It is impossible for him to fish in the rain.
So, once it started to rain, Jiang Shaobo would have packed up and gone home immediately. But he still died by the river, which means he was killed before the rain.
Chi Mu narrowed his eyes. There was a new direction for investigation regarding the murderer.
Usually no one goes to the river at the west end of the village. As long as we know who went to the river at the west end of the village yesterday morning, we can narrow down the murderer.
"Huh, now we have a preliminary estimate of the murderer. Now we just need to gradually narrow down the scope and confirm the murderer's identity step by step."
Chi Mu breathed a sigh of relief. Now everything was moving in a good direction. At least until now, there had been no obstacles.
——"Do you feel that Mu Shen basically won't make mistakes starting from this strange story, and his performance is much better than the previous two strange stories?"
——"I also discovered that the peak period of Mu Shen is back!"
——"It's possible that Chi Mu was too exhausted after participating in too many ghost stories. It is said that this time when Chi Mu returned to the real world, he received special relaxation at the think tank."
The Longguo audience noticed that Chi Mu's thinking was clear and he no longer made as many mistakes as in previous times.
Even without Yang Qu's help this time, Chi Mu still found a lot of clues and was once again ahead of many chosen ones.
Of course, compared with Ivan of Russia, Chimu is still slightly behind.
Qin Jianghe was looking at the big screen in the live broadcast room. On the other screen was a live broadcast from Russia.
"It seems that our medicine has taken effect and has alleviated Chi Mu's slow thinking...
But what is going on with this Ivan? Why is his performance getting better and better? His performance in the first ghost story he participated in was also mediocre. I watched the replay and it was not as outstanding as it is now. "
Qin Jianghe was very puzzled. Ivan's performance was becoming more and more amazing. His handling of many details and logical reasoning were far ahead of Chi Mu.
"Old Qin, this isn't a strange thing, is it? After all, our Dragon Nation's Chosen One also made mistakes repeatedly, and it wasn't until Chi Mu showed up that the deadlock was broken.
So it is not surprising that a Chosen One who is better than Chi Mu has appeared in Maozi Country. After all, it is possible for a great country to select a Chosen One with outstanding abilities. "
The assistant standing by didn't think it was strange, he just felt that Russia was very lucky.
The world of ghost stories randomly selected such an outstanding chosen one.
"At first I thought the same as you, but isn't this too much of a coincidence? Ivan is a researcher at the Russian think tank, and it's true that he knows a lot about the world of ghost stories.
But his level of progress now has almost become a vertical line, which is really incredible.
Our Dragon Country has received so many ghost story rewards, and Chi Mu's intelligence has also increased. Even so, he has not been able to achieve the same improvement curve as Ivan.
Do you still think Ivan's progress is normal?"
Qin Jianghe threw a chart report on the table for his assistant to see.
"this......"
After hearing what Qin Jianghe said and the curve chart on the table, the assistant was stunned for a moment.
From this perspective, Ivan's progress curve is indeed very strange.
"Although Russia is a friendly country to us, they have also concealed a lot of things. If we could know the truth about why Ivan has made such rapid progress, it would be of great help to us."
The assistant understood Qin Jianghe's meaning. He nodded slightly, took the report and left the laboratory.
After the assistant left, Qin Jianghe tapped his fingers rhythmically on the table a few times, then took out his cell phone and contacted the caregiver who was taking care of his grandmother.
“Mr. Qin, according to your instructions, grandma has been settled down, and the top medical team in the entire Blue Star has formulated a medical plan.
Grandma’s health is not optimistic. Because she sought medical treatment too late, she is already in a critical condition…”
"The best medical team in the entire Blue Planet has no solution at all? I don't care what method you use, you must cure Grandma Chi Mu's illness. She is a relative of a hero of Dragon Country, and there must be no mistakes!"
Qin Jianghe's tone was very serious. He had promised Chi Mu that he would never let anything happen to his grandmother.
.......
Chi Mu was running a small shop, and it was soon noon.
He planned to close the shop and go home to eat first, and then go to Cripple Li's house in the afternoon.
Because the paper man that appeared at the door of Chi Mu’s house last night was very strange, because only Lame Li in the village could make paper men.
Just after closing the door of the convenience store, Chi Mu saw the temple on the back mountain again.
"That should be the hunchback temple mentioned in the rules, right?"
[1: In the Hunchback Temple on the back mountain, once the bell rings, you cannot leave Hunchback Village. If you want to leave, you must go to the temple to burn incense.]
Chi Mu thought of this rule, because until now, the bell in the Hunchback Temple had not rung, and he could enter and leave the Hunchback Village freely.
"Will there be any inconvenience if I am restricted from leaving the Hunchback Temple?"
Chi Mu frowned slightly. The rules of ghost stories would not appear randomly. As long as they existed, they definitely had a meaning for their existence.
So, what does this rule really mean?
