The Myth Returns: I Obtained the Bloodline of the Candle Dragon

Chapter 43: This way others will think I’m a softie

Yeah, at first I thought it was the aftermath of a ghost movie, but even though the sound was small, it kept knocking for a long time. I had the courage to open the curtains...

When Lu Jiu'er spoke, she swallowed and seemed a little scared, There was nothing after the curtains were opened, and there was no knocking on the window after that.

Su Lin sat there and thought. He didn't sleep well last night. He lived next door to Lu Jiu'er. If there was a knock on the window, why didn't he hear it?

Or is it that the sound was indeed very small and I didn't notice it?

While he was thinking about it, he was wiping out his breakfast. Just as he was finishing and wiping his mouth, there was a knock on the door and a ring on the doorbell.

Su Lin glanced at Lu Jiu'er, Express delivery?

Lu Jiu'er shook her head in confusion, I didn't buy anything.

You follow me and I'll open the door.

Su Lin stood up and said, after all, you are paid, so you still have to have the necessary qualities.

Lu Jiu'er followed Su Lin with a smile in her eyes but said nothing.

Su Lin first looked at the surveillance camera at the door and found that there were indeed people outside, and they were not ordinary people. The person outside the door was a criminal police officer from the Public Security Bureau, holding his license at the camera.

Hello, are you a resident here?

After opening the door, the middle-aged detective at the head asked.

Su Lin shook his head, She is.

What about you? What do you do?

Another young detective looked at Su Lin.

My boyfriend, what's wrong with you?

Lu Jiu'er opened her mouth to answer for Su Lin, but Su Lin didn't refute. There was no need to refute his employer on this matter.

Moreover, it is generally not a good thing for the criminal police to come to your door. If he says that he is an outsider, he will easily get into trouble.

Different from the conversation with Su Lin, Lu Jiu'er was wearing a casual dress at home, but she was very imposing, which made the young detective feel a little less imposing.

Haha, what a talented and beautiful woman. Don't be so vigilant, young lady. We are just here to visit and collect evidence.

The old detective tried to smooth things over, telling his juniors not to speak so directly. The residents here were all dignitaries and not easy to mess with.

What happened?

Su Lin asked.

The old detective took out his notebook and held a pen in one hand. After asking the names of Su Lin and Lu Jiu'er, he answered Su Lin's question.

Someone died in the villa next to yours, and the police were called this morning, so we want to ask, did you see any suspicious people yesterday? Or did you hear any movement in the evening?

When Lu Jiu'er heard that someone had died, she frowned, I remember that the house next door was in the real estate business, and there were four or five people living there. Who died?

After a moment of silence, the old detective said, Five people in the family are all dead.

Lu Jiu'er's eyes were filled with fear, she crossed her shoulders with her hands and took a step back, bumping into Su Lin's shoulder. I really felt pity for that look.

She took a deep breath and said, We went back very early yesterday, and we didn't sleep too late. We didn't hear anything or see anything suspicious.

The old detective looked deeply at Lu Jiu'er, his eyes lingered on Su Lin again, nodded, and wrote a phone number on the paper and tore it off, Thank you for your cooperation. If you remember anything, please call this number. , after all, this is a murder that happened in your community. If it is detected earlier, you can rest assured.

Lu Jiu'er took the note and said, Thank you for your hard work, police officer.

After the door closed, the old detective waved to his apprentice and asked him to leave with him.

Master, something is wrong. That man is very suspicious. He is not a resident here, and he didn't behave like the hostess's boyfriend just now.

The young detective was confused.

Maybe he was scared, but it's still a clue. You can ask someone to check his information.

The old detective took out a cigarette, lit it, and exhaled a puff of smoke, But this case doesn't look like it can be done by one person... The owner's bodyguard was from the military, and there were signs of a fight at the scene, but everyone died in the end. , and that death state...

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but shudder.

Because Boss Wang's family of four had bodyguards, they all strangled their own necks with their hands and stuck out their tongues when they died, making it look like they were strangled to death by themselves.

The forensic doctor is still making an identification. Although he feels it is impossible, if the pinch marks on the neck match them personally, then this case may not be something he can investigate.

…………

In the living room, Su Lin tapped his eyebrows with his finger, The detectives were dispatched, and they asked us about our movements. It seems that it is definitely a homicide. Why did you lie?

You mean I heard a knock on the window?

Lu Jiu'er sat on another single sofa, her fair legs crossed, her hands on her knees, Do they believe what I said? It only increases the suspicion.

Could it have anything to do with the person following you?

Su Lin looked at Lu Jiu'er.

Speaking of this, Lu Jiuer put one hand around her other elbow, I don't know, and I said it's an object, not necessarily a person.

A fierce ghost?

Su Lin smiled and said, Li Gui's life depends on his partner, right? Have you ever done anything wrong?

I've never done anything wrong, but it could be that the ghosts are taking revenge on the people who live here. I've never really seen ghosts, so I don't know what those things think.

Lu Jiu'er said and stood up, Why does it feel so gloomy in the house? Come on, go shopping with me!

Would this benefit our investigation?

Su Lin said.

Lu Jiu'er was walking upstairs, ready to change clothes, and looked back with a smile, It will help my sister keep me in a good mood.

Su Lin shrugged, Listen to Mr. Lu, anyway, you will spend more money every extra day.

Sister, I'm not short of money. Also, didn't you tell me not to call me classmate Lu all the time? Call me Jiu'er instead.

Lu Jiuer said and continued to go upstairs.

Okay, Student Lu.

Su Lin's words almost caused the other party to stumble.

…………

Hmm... As expected, people rely on their clothes. I didn't expect our little spirit to be quite impressive.

Lu Jiu'er looked at Su Lin walking out of the fitting room and said with a smile, seemingly very satisfied with wearing this new casual suit.

With that said, she walked forward, got closer, tapped her toes, raised her arms with a faint body scent, and passed through Su Lin's neck from both sides. The two were so close that they were almost touching each other.

Just when Su Lin thought he was about to be molested, the other party's hand was behind his neck and helped him turn out the collar of his shirt.

After doing all this, Lu Jiu'er moved his hand back to the front, grabbed Su Lin's tie, and helped him straighten himself.

So, aren't you here to go shopping? I don't want to buy clothes.

Su Lin knew the position of this store, and the clothes he wore were worth half a day's salary. Besides, he was more curious about how the family next door to Lu Jiu'er died than going shopping with Lu Jiu'er.

Finally, and most importantly, he has run out of manuscripts and has to find time to type today.

Lu Jiu'er rolled her eyes, Tch, I'm just passing by. You've been suspected today, which means you and I don't get along. In order to avoid the trouble of being suspected by the Public Security Bureau, it's better to deal with it neatly for you.

She took two steps back, looked at it again, and took out a card from her small bag, Shopping guide, swipe your card.

Su Lin felt the gazes around him, as if he was looking at a pretty boy being kept by a rich woman.

How could he, Su Lin, a manly man, be misunderstood as a love interest?

Classmate Lu, I don't need to look like I match you...

Su Linzheng wanted Lu Jiu'er to correct his attitude. He was only here to help with the investigation, not to go on a blind date with you. But before he could finish his words, he heard the beep of his cell phone.

[Wealth treasure arrived in the account, worth 50,000 yuan. 】

I'm so happy shopping today...

Lu Jiu'er put down her phone, crossed her arms and stretched out, showing off the curves of her spiritual cage. She looked back at Su Lin, What did you just say?

I said Jiu'er has really good taste. I like this outfit.

Su Lin replied instantly.

Anyone who is familiar with Xiang knows that Xiang rarely writes clichéd plots. They are all foreshadowing and can only wait until the movie unfolds. In addition, some book friends asked about the heroine, so I just said that this book still has a single heroine.

Finally, it is really important to read the new book issue. Please read it every day and vote for it. I would be very grateful (*^▽^*)
