Originally, after the few of them cleared up their suspicions, this matter didn't have much to do with them. Even if they couldn't get out of the city for the time being, they didn't need to intervene, but Chang Buyan asked himself to join the investigation of the case, hoping to find the murderer as soon as possible.

He had only met Liu Mengzhu once, so they were not friends, but at least Liu Mengzhu didn't hurt him at that time, and he also wanted to fulfill her filial piety.

Anyway, find the murderer and let her rest in peace.

A few of them went to the city lord's mansion to have a look. Dozens of corpses had not been cleaned up, and they looked terrible. Chang Buyan squatted in front of the city lord and looked at his wounds. He died by cutting his throat with a sharp knife. Next to the city lord was the housekeeper whom he had seen during the day. The housekeeper was miserable, his entire face was scratched.

There are also several servants in the mansion who have been slapped in the face. Chang Buyan is not sure what the pattern of this murderer is, as if he was chosen arbitrarily. It is not enough to kill people, but also to choose a few to ruin his appearance.

"here……"

His gaze stayed on the seat of the butler's left neck. Although it was covered with blood, there seemed to be some scars here that didn't look like knife wounds, but instead looked like they had been scalded, and the burn was more severe.

"Looking at their wounds, they don't seem to be the work of ghosts. Chi Yu, what have you seen..." Chang Buyan looked up and saw that Chi Yu's face seemed not in a good mood. He stopped what he wanted to ask, got up and walked to Chi Yu asked beside him, "Chi Yu, what's wrong with you?"

Chi Yu frowned, looked at the corpses on the ground, and Chang Buyan followed his gaze. Although he has no memory now, he doesn't know what it was like when Buku City was destroyed, but it is probably full. Seeing such a scene, Chi Yu would probably think of those previous experiences.

"Let's go back."

He took Chi Yu's hand and walked out, met Peng Zhe at the entrance, thought for a while and ordered: "Captain Peng, please protect the scene."

"Your Highness, please rest assured that the entire City Lord's Mansion is guarded by Yamen servants."

"Well, there is also the third Liu who reported the crime. He brought him to the inn to meet me."

"Yes."

Peng Zhe turned to look for Liu Laosan, Chang Buyan and Chi Yu walked out of the city lord's mansion, both of them kept silent on the way back to the inn, while Yun Qing and Xiao Lian went back to the inn just now.

It is almost Haishi now, and there are far fewer passers-by on the street. They walked side by side, and the moonlight stretched their two shadows very long. I often watched silently, but felt that even the two shadows looked alike. It is separated by thousands of rivers and mountains, and it will never be possible to meet together.

After walking for a while, Chang Buyan suddenly noticed that the speed of the people around him seemed to slow down, he looked over with some doubts, and found that Chi Yu's left hand was pressing on his right arm, and the spell on his right arm appeared again.

"Late metaphor..."

In the past, the right arm was used when fighting, and the spell on the right arm would appear, but now there is no fighting, why did it appear?And the late expression seemed to be in pain.

Pedestrians who occasionally pass by on the road cast strange glances at the two of them, Chang Buyan dragged Chi Yu to the corner of the roadside, trying to avoid passers-by.

Chi Yu's hands trembled a little, what came to his mind was the scene when he saw the city full of corpses, the cries of children, the panting sounds of dying people, and the smell of blood in the air.

"I..." Chi Yu squatted down slowly against the wall, lowered his head, not knowing what he wanted to express.

"Chi Yu, what do you want to say?" Chang Buyan squatted down in front of him worriedly, put his hands on Chi Yu's shoulders, heard his panting heavily, as if he was restraining something.

"Chi Yu, look at me and tell me what's wrong with you?"

Chang Buyan didn't hold back after saying this sentence, but just waited for Chi Yu, and after waiting for a while, he saw Chi Yu slowly raised his head and looked at him.

"I killed them with my own hands."

Different from the calm and indifferent person in normal times, his expression at this time is like a child who has done something wrong, pain, repentance, panic, helplessness, all kinds of emotions are mixed together.

"Destroy the city that I created with my own hands."

Chang Buyan saw such Chi Yu for the first time, and his heart ached involuntarily. He really wanted to persuade Chi Yu, but he didn't know what happened back then, and it was only at this moment that he really began to hate himself for being nothing. As far as I know, I hate myself for drinking Mengpo soup and losing the memory of my previous life.

As soon as Chang Buyan lowered his head, tears fell involuntarily, but the only thing he could do now was stretch out his hands and gently hug the person in front of him who was caught in painful memories.
