My daily mountain driving, I met a fox at the beginning and got married

Shen Liangjiao, realizing what was happening, was also quite frightened. She shook her head and denied it: "No... I absolutely did not intend to kill you. I did not know there was poison in it. I really did not know!"

Seeing that her expression didn't seem fake, Li Zixuan couldn't help but feel strange.

"If it wasn't you, then who could it be? Who came into the kitchen while you were cooking noodles? Who could have come into contact with this food?"

This simple question, however, put Shen Liangjiao in a very difficult position.

Shen Liangjiao seemed hesitant to speak, making it seem like there was more to the story, so they continued to press her for answers.

"Just tell me what happened. There's no fun in being a riddle-maker!"

"Just say what's going on. If you don't explain clearly, it might cause more trouble!"

"When I was cooking noodles in the kitchen, only my great-uncle was there; no one else had ever been in the kitchen."

This means that the person who poisoned him was very likely Grandpa Shen.

Chen Anshui and Li Zixuan expressed their doubts about this.

"That old man may have a bad temper, but he wouldn't stoop to such a level, would he?" Li Zixuan's lips twitched as he analyzed.

“I also don’t think he’s that insidious. If he really wanted to do something, he would do it openly and honestly.”

"On your way here with the noodles, did anyone talk to you or come into close contact with this bowl of noodles?"

Shen Liangjiao frowned and said uncertainly, "Wang Ren walked past me, but we didn't talk; we just brushed past each other. I haven't run into anyone else."

It's Wang Ren again!

Li Zixuan felt an immense headache.

Unfortunately, this guy has a perfect alibi, making it impossible to identify him as the murderer.

“Have you ever considered that the murderer used cyanide to kill someone, there must still be residue on his body? Let’s search everyone’s luggage…” Chen Anshui was interrupted by Li Zixuan before he could finish speaking.

Chen Anshui paused for a moment, then offered a feasible suggestion: "We've already investigated once, so investigating again probably won't be of any use. I think we should turn the tables and secretly find out what poison the murderer is hiding!"

The three agreed to split up and search the entire ancestral hall without alerting anyone.

Time passed slowly, and the roads outside were finally cleared, and rescue workers rushed over.

Unfortunately, they arrived too late, as several people had already died at the scene.

Upon learning of the murder, relevant departments immediately dispatched professionals to the scene.

The major crime unit in charge of the case began to carefully investigate the cause of death of these individuals.

However, the investigation revealed that, apart from the initial girl, the other two victims had varying degrees of infidelity issues. Furthermore, the streamer was also quite promiscuous; all three deceased could be considered scumbags.

This could very well be a crime of passion!

Hearing their deductions, Chen Anshui, who had been silent all along, couldn't help but speak up.

"Are you sure you're not mistaken? If it really was a crime of passion, why would the murderer also kill Li Zixuan?"

The investigators couldn't answer that question.

Li Zixuan also made it clear that he had nothing to do with those messy emotional entanglements.

This brought the investigation to a standstill. If no new leads are found, the case will be very difficult to solve.

Li Zixuan shared his guess with them: "I am more inclined to believe that the mastermind behind the murder randomly selected people to attack, otherwise they would not have suddenly chosen me."

However, the investigators seemed skeptical and didn't quite believe it. They eventually told these people to go home and rest, while they interrogated everyone present one by one.

There were dozens of people at the scene, and the investigators questioned them so thoroughly that they almost collapsed from exhaustion.

After noticing that the signal had been restored once the road was clear, Li Zixuan told Zhang Hao about what had happened.

Zhang Hao received the message and looked down—someone was using the name of an evil spirit to commit murder?
Or was he a typical serial killer who indulged in pleasure?

Zhang Hao found it unbelievable that someone would dare to cause trouble in the name of ghosts. Weren't they afraid that ghosts would actually come knocking on their door?

Or perhaps that person believed that all matters of ghosts and gods were false and not worth paying attention to.

"Since the situation is out of your control, I'll go over there. Be careful, and don't cause any trouble before I get there. I've taught you some skills, so show me what you're capable of and don't act like you're completely useless."

After reprimanding them, Zhang Hao quickly took the little koi fish to the ancestral hall.

The ancestral hall gates were wide open, and law enforcement personnel from relevant departments had already set up a cordon at the scene, prohibiting unauthorized personnel from entering.

Zhang Hao, who had been stopped, made a phone call. Not long after, the officer in charge of the case received a call from his superior.

After hearing the instructions from his superior over the phone, the staff member's attitude towards Zhang Hao immediately became extremely respectful.

"So you're the professional consultant our department specially invited. We're counting on you for this case! Please solve it as soon as possible, otherwise, if any paranormal events happen here, it will affect the local tourism industry!"

Zhang Hao disagreed. This coastal area was already plagued by evil spirits, so it was only a matter of time before it affected tourism. The only thing to blame was the bad feng shui.

"No need to be polite, I'll go check it out. Also, I have two assistants here, named Chen Anshui and Li Zixuan, ask them to come and help me."

Zhang Hao gave instructions as he walked inside.

They soon arrived at the scene where the female anchor had died.

Because the body had been dead for some time, it began to emit a strange odor.

Upon closer inspection, Zhang Hao determined that the man had died from excessive blood loss after being stabbed in the heart with a knife.

And this murderous knife is indeed somewhat strange.

The investigators have placed the evidence into a sealed bag. Inside the transparent bag, the bloodstains on the knife and the eerie pattern are clearly visible.

Seeing Zhang Hao so engrossed in his work, the investigators beside him couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Zhang, have you made any discoveries?"

Zhang Hao stared at the knife: "I have indeed made some discoveries, but I'm not sure yet."

Li Zixuan, who had walked over, asked curiously, "Mr. Zhang, you've been staring at this knife. Did you notice something wrong with it?"

They had previously thought the knife was a bit strange, but after a careful inspection, they found nothing unusual.

Even if there were problems, they probably wouldn't notice. Seeing Zhang Hao so intently examining this eerie knife, they couldn't help but feel curious.

Holding the knife, Zhang Hao calmly asked the two officers:

"Did you find any unusual fingerprints on it?"

The two investigators were taken aback, then shook their heads and said, "We've examined it. There are no unusual fingerprints, only the victim's own. Based on the location of the fingerprints, it's highly likely that she stabbed herself, so we initially determine this to be a suicide. However, the motive for suicide is still unclear."

suicide?

Zhang Hao sighed and said with absolute certainty, "This is definitely not suicide. I can guess who the killer is, but I need your cooperation to lure that guy out." (End of Chapter)
