strongest partner

Ruan Jinghao received a commission yesterday. In order to complete the task, he stayed busy until night before returning. He was so tired that he was dizzy and his body was about to fall apart.

"I told you I can help you, why are you so tired?" Fang Lv slowly helped him into the room, poured him a glass of water, Ruan Jinghao took a sip from the glass, and then "poof" "I'm going, Fang Lu, what's in this water? Why is it so salty?!" Fang Lu was a little suspicious, took a sip from the teacup, and his expression became tangled, "I thought it was sugar..."

"Ah..." Ruan Jinghao wailed. He didn't expect this young master to serve others, so he got up and poured a glass of boiled water, then walked to the bathroom with his bathrobe, and said to Fang Lv behind him, "Dare to sneak in?" You're going to die!" Fang Lv behind him froze and laughed a few times.

Ruan Jinghao took off his coat and put it on the sofa, while Fang Lv was bored and sat in the hall to play games.

Suddenly, there was a rush of mobile phone ringing.

Fang Lv thought it was Ruan Jinghao's clients again, so he didn't bother to step on them and continued to play the game.

The phone rang and thought over and over again, Fang Lv was disturbed, took out the phone from Ruan Jinghao's coat, glanced at the caller ID, pressed the answer button, "Hey, cousin, what's the matter with you?" ?"

Fang Shaoyan called Ah Hao several times, but no one answered. He thought that guy didn't have a mobile phone and was about to give up, but the call got through.However, he was stunned for a moment when he heard the voice from the other end of the phone, and then he realized, "Fang Lu? Why are you?"

"Cousin, you are sleepy, I have been living in Haohao's house!"

"That is to say, Ah Hao is at home?"

"He's in the shower, what can you do?"

"Forget it, I'll call him after he finishes washing!"

"Oh, cousin, why are you so out of touch? It's the same if you tell me! I'll tell him!"

"Uh... It's useless for me to tell you, you're not him! I want to know if he has time tomorrow. I encountered a case in T City and I want him to help..."

Fang Lu rolled his eyes slyly, as if thinking of something, he smiled and said, "Wait a minute, cousin, I'll ask Haohao to answer the phone..." "Huh?" Fang Shaoyan was stunned, didn't he say that Ah Hao was taking a bath Why, how to answer the phone, could it be this kid...

Fang Lu rushed into the bathroom excitedly, and shouted: "Hao Hao, my cousin called you and said that I have something important to discuss with you...

"Fuck! Fang Lu, you shameless Hun Dan, get out of here!!!!" Fang Shaoyan was startled by the roar on the phone, and hurriedly moved away from his ear. Now, Fang Shaoyan can also imagine the scene of flying around on the other end of the phone.

Before he knew it, the phone was hung up. Fang Shaoyan sat on the bed and looked at the phone speechlessly. In fact, Ah Hao is even more unreliable... "What's wrong with you?"

The sudden sound startled Fang Shaoyan!

With one look, Qi Mu's enchanting face is right in front of him!

"Wow!" Fang Shaoyan screamed in fright, stretched out his hand and pushed Qi Mu away in front of him, and said, "When did you come in? Why didn't you knock on the door? Are you trying to scare me to death?"

Qi Mu pointed to the door and said, "The door is unlocked, so I just walked in..."

Fang Shaoyan was angry, "Qi Mu, can you say hello before you show up next time, people will scare people to death!"

"I thought you knew... By the way, you were staring at your phone in a daze, what were you thinking?"

Fang Shaoyan gave him a blank look, "What's none of your business? Why did you come up here?"

"If I don't come up, am I going to accompany such a rich second generation down there?"

"Where's Mo Xiangyang? You wouldn't..." Fang Shaoyan couldn't help but shudder when he thought of Qi Mu's black-bellied personality. He shouldn't have scolded Mo Xiangyang, right?

"Hmph! Are you worried about him?" Qi Mu said rather annoyed.

"Qi Mu, I think..."

"Huh? What did you say? I didn't hear clearly..."

"I said! Did you get kicked in the head by a donkey, you bastard!?" Fang Shaoyan couldn't help but yelled at him, "What is the purpose of our coming here? Have you forgotten your job? It's actually related to an unrelated People are fighting and bickering, where is your IQ?" When Qi Mu heard Fang Shaoyan say "irrelevant people", he felt much better. At that time, I... didn't find any important clues..."

"Didn't find any important clues?" Fang Shaoyan felt very strange when he heard this, "Even you didn't see anything. Could it be that this is really just an ordinary murder case? Not a special supernatural case?"

"Speaking of being special... there is indeed a little... I think it's quite strange..."

"Oh? What's strange?"

"Xiao Cheng's soul... seems to have disappeared?"

"I don't see... what do you mean? Maybe you have been taken away by ghost messengers," Fang Shaoyan thought of the black and white impermanence he saw last time, "I don't know what the underworld looks like? People like Xiao Cheng are probably going to hell. ?”

Qi Mu couldn't help laughing, "Do you really want to see what the underworld looks like?"

"I don't want to." Fang Shaoyan replied very simply, "If I really see it, it will prove that I am dead!"

"Even if you die, you may not be able to enter the underworld!"

"After people die, don't their souls go to the underworld? Those who don't enter the underworld are the so-called lonely ghosts!"

"Yes! In fact, countless people die every day, and the number of ghost messengers is obviously not as large as the number of ghosts. Those ghost messengers arrest souls according to the list in the book of life and death. Those who died of birth, old age, sickness and death are all listed in the book of life and death. In the list! Lonely ghosts are basically people who died of accidents!"

Hearing this, Fang Shaoyan didn't understand, "That's not right...the girl who was in a car accident last time died in a car accident, and the ghost messenger appeared immediately. Isn't a car accident an accident?"

"The accident I'm talking about is not the accident we usually understand! The accident I'm talking about refers to the fact that this person's life is not over and should not die, but they died due to certain factors. These people's deaths did not Appeared in the book of life and death, that's why there are so many lonely ghosts in the world! The Saburo we saw last time in country r can be regarded as a person who died by accident, his death is not in the book of life and death , and with the help of a cat demon, he is not so much a ghost, he is actually closer to a 'spirit'!" "Do you want to say that Xiao Cheng's death was accidental? Can you really not find his soul?"

Qi Mu shook his head, "I can't feel his soul at all! It's as if it doesn't exist at all! Even if it's a lonely ghost, I can still feel their existence with my soul-calling spell... But Xiao Cheng..."

"Could it be that his soul was swallowed by other ghosts?" Qi Mu asked, Fang Lv once devoured souls in order to survive, and those souls were naturally incorporated into his body as food, so naturally they couldn't be found. .

"Maybe... It's also possible... However, I didn't feel the presence of any dangerous ghosts around me, but I can't rule out that they have hidden their breath..."

"Isn't it a vendetta? It's something powerful that kills him and then devours his soul? However, this reason seems a bit far-fetched. If it is really something that is not human, why do you have to choose Xiao Cheng?" ? There are so many people in the hotel, why are you staring at him?"

"If we know the reason, I'm afraid we will be able to find out the real cause of his death! His soul will disappear, and several possibilities cannot be ruled out. One is that, as you said, he was swallowed by other more powerful ghosts, and there is another possibility , his soul was isolated by some kind of power..."

"What does it mean to be cut off by some power?"

"For example, some cultivators use magic tools to catch ghosts, like those bottles, gourds, things used to hold souls!," So that's it. "

"There is another possibility..."

"Huh? Isn't that too much assumption?"

"The last possibility, the probability of it happening is less than [-] in [-], but it's not impossible..."

"How could it be so mysterious?"

"Xiao Cheng's soul magnetic field is incompatible with this world. After death, he entered other worlds, which is the so-called soul travel! In addition to luck, this kind of person has a lot of hostility in his soul, so I wanted to know at that time Xiao Cheng's date of birth!"

"Huh?" Fang Shaoyan was dumbfounded, "Isn't that a plot that only appears in novels? It really does exist... However, what we are entangled with now should not be where Xiao Cheng's soul went, but how did he die? Qi Mu, do you think a person can cut a person into several sections at the same time without attracting others' attention?"

"That depends on what tool you're using."

"Huh? Isn't it a murder weapon like a blade?"

"Knife is not necessarily the only thing that can cut a person's body..." Qi Mu narrowed his eyes slightly, "I have seen the wound on Xiao Cheng's corpse, it is very uniform, and it is fatal at once! If it is a knife, a person can only With one pair of hands, he can only cut off the two arms of the person at most, do you think Xiao Cheng will not resist and struggle under such circumstances?"

"That's right, isn't a weapon a knife? What is that? Only a knife can cut it. At first I thought it would be caused by a weapon such as a samurai sword or a Swiss army knife, but then I thought about it. Ordinary people only have one pair of hands to do it." No! Then... what is the murder weapon?"

"Why must it be a knife?"

"Ok?"

"Knives are not the only ones that can cut things!" Qi Mu looked at the bedroom and saw a fruit plate on the bedside table. He took out a banana from it, and then he took out a coil of thread from nowhere and put it together with the banana. On the table.

Fang Shaoyan didn't know what Qi Mu was doing with these things, he just stared at his every move with all his attention.Qi Mu wrapped the thread around the banana in two parts, and then pulled it hard, and the banana was instantly torn into several pieces!

Fang Shaoyan suddenly realized, "It turns out...the murder weapon is silk thread!"
