The lanky neighbor reacted more strongly than the incoherent landlady.When she couldn't restrain her curiosity and saw that the "thing" hanging in the living room was a dead body, she instantly let out an extremely short cry.Then she raised her hands to cover her mouth, like a turkey whose neck was suddenly strangled, her eyes rolled up, and she fell down.If it wasn't for Qin Yue's sharp eyes and quick hands to catch her, I'm afraid she would be smashed in the head.

Before she had time to lay her flat, the landlady crawled out on hands and feet.She leaned against the wall, her limbs trembling uncontrollably.Her lips trembled so badly that she couldn't make a sound after several attempts.Probably because the distance was too close and the impact was too great, she hugged her head, weeping uncontrollably, her emotions were on the verge of losing control.

Even if it was brought by Guan Peng this time, several subordinates who had served as soldiers with excellent psychological quality, saw the scene and looked like they had opened a dyeing workshop, which was quite ugly.

Guan Yun raised his chin and said, "Call the police."

Only then did Guan Peng hurriedly take out his phone.After reporting the situation and returning to the original place, he only had time to see the back of Qin Yue Guan Yunheng walking into the room.

At this time, he only realized later that Guan Yunheng and Qin Yue were too calm compared to other people.Especially Qin Yue, the young man showed a kind of calm beyond ordinary people after a short period of stunned, and his expression did not fluctuate to the point of being almost cold.

This death scene looked weird from a distance, and he couldn't figure out why someone would take the initiative to set foot there.

After hesitating for a few seconds, he just wanted to speak out to dissuade him.Suddenly, the scar on Guan Yunheng's arm that suddenly flashed a few months ago appeared in his mind.At that time, the elder brother's clear and calm expression was exactly the same as before.

I always feel that... at an unknown time point, maybe something happened that he didn't know and couldn't understand.Guan Peng thought inexplicably.

*********

The decoration style of this apartment has been around for at least [-] to [-] years, and part of the wall skin has already been damp and peeled off, exposing the red brick wall.Facing east and west, the living room is facing the entrance and there are large plastic-steel glass windows, which should provide good lighting even in this season.However, because the residents had drawn half of the curtains in advance, it seemed that the room was a bit dim and gloomy, adding a bit of eerieness.

Liu Lan's body was hanging in the very center of the living room, and she was hanging on a hemp rope about three fingers wide.Qin Yue looked up and noticed a protruding concrete beam in the center of the roof of the living room.I don't know whether it was the former resident or who installed a solid iron pipe on the concrete beam. The iron pipe has a curved hook shape under it, which may be used to hang heavy objects such as sports sandbags upside down.

Liu Lan is very thin. She is wearing a white linen skirt that she only wears in midsummer. Under the hem, her legs are shrunk and deformed due to years of sitting in a wheelchair.

Upon closer inspection, her eyebrows and eyes are five points similar to Yang Xueman's, but compared with her sister's gorgeous and flamboyant, she is more delicate.Her hair was parted to the sides of her shoulders, and hung neatly at the nape of her neck.With his eyes slightly closed, he looked calm and peaceful, with a faint smile on his lips.

Her arms hung loosely on both sides of her body, and there was a wound on each wrist. Below the wound, there was a slender line of dried blood extending to the fingertips.

"Maybe she wasn't hanged." Qin Yue said in a low voice, shifting her gaze to the square white cloth laid under the corpse.It is said to be white cloth, but the middle part is almost completely stained red with blood.The dried blood was an uncomfortably dark brown color, soaking in and crusting the surface of the cloth.There is a pattern looming under the bloodstain, but it is covered by the bloodstain.

The four corners of the cloth were flattened by a porcelain plate, and there were burnt candles of various shapes placed in the plate.With just one glance, Qin Yue could see that they were different from ordinary candles.

"Birthday candles." He knelt on the ground, lowered his body and looked at it.Most of the fluctuations in the remaining spiritual power come from these candles.

The dead Ni Xiaohong, the dragon carp of Qixia Lake, the birthday candle made by infusing Ni Xiaohong's soul and dragon carp fat...

Guan Yunheng said: "So it's her, isn't it? The murderer who killed the Internet celebrity, and the mysterious person who appears and disappears?"

Qin Yue stood up again, and could answer his question without it.

"Although the process of making birthday candles cannot be said to be complicated, it also requires venues and professional tools."

He spoke slowly, looking around the apartment.There is no strict separation between the living room and the kitchen. There is a bookshelf on the left side, on which there are only a few weekly magazines with a history of at least ten years, which should have nothing to do with Liu Lan.There is a thick layer of dust on every shelf, and it is obvious that no one has taken care of it for a long time.

There is a short corridor to the right of the living room, leading to the only bedroom.Liu Lan's wheelchair was parked on the side of the corridor.Qin Yue and Guan Yunheng carefully avoided it and walked into the bedroom.

The size of the bedroom does not exceed ten square meters. Two yellowed idol pictorials are pasted on the wall, and a narrow single bed and bedside table are simply placed underneath.

The quilt on the bed was randomly wrapped up and placed where the pillow was.On the bedside table was a wooden comb with broken teeth and a mirror.Qin Yue took out a handkerchief, picked up a few hairs from the comb and wrapped them up.

He stooped and opened the drawer of the bedside table, and there was nothing in it except a book the size of a palm.The book is an annals of geomancy in the period of the Republic of China. The text is in vague traditional characters, typesetting from left to right.

Not only was the young man not relieved, but his expression became more dignified.Guan Yunheng waited for him to put the book into his backpack, and asked, "Is there something wrong with this book?"

Qin Yue shook her head and replied: "No. It's just that I haven't figured out some problems. This book is placed by Liu Lan's bedside. It seems that she often reads it. I want to know why?"

Walking out of the bedroom, the young man went straight to the center of the living room, staring at the lifeless body.

Guan Yunheng saw that his brows were tightly furrowed, and asked, "Is there any problem?"

"Perhaps." Qin Yue stood with her back to the door, squatted down, hung her palms in the air, and sang in a very low voice: "The light is free, day and night are always bright, the sun and the moon are too bright, yin and yang are harmonious, and those who are not beyond the limit will die." !!"

This is the first time Guan Yunheng has heard such a stern curse.He found that as the words slowly came out of Qin Yue's mouth, a thin layer of sweat broke out on the young man's forehead.

"The light is free, the day and night are always bright, the sun and the moon are too bright, the yin and yang are the sun, the spirits and gods care about me, and all things appear!!"

There was a series of hurried footsteps behind him.Guan Peng, who was guarding the door, deliberately raised his voice and said, "It's inside!"

Qin Yue took a sharp breath, stretched out his hand to help Guan Yun to stand up straight, and the two quickly retreated to the door.

"God, this is..." The young man with the biggest stride had already entered the door, he turned around and waved to the people behind, "Captain Chen, this way."

When she raised her eyes, she happened to meet Qin Yue's gaze.

Qin Yue: "..."

The young man froze for a moment, his eyes were round, as if their eyeballs were about to fall out of them.

"Why is it you again?!" Because of surprise, they all broke their voices.

Not to mention, this is what he wanted to ask.Qin Yue looked past him, looked at another familiar figure who walked in, sighed and said, "Officer Liu, what a coincidence."
