Lingqiu Lake and Saunter (5)

  The place gives people a sense of coolness, the old curtains float gently up and then slowly fall down.

  But the table was eerily dust-free, looking as if it had never been touched by a speck of dust. Lin Yuanxiao stared at the table for a while, then carefully leaned down, as if measuring something.

  Xia Zhu swallowed a mouthful of saliva and stared at the house for a while, her expression somewhat subtle.

  "Blind spot," Lin Yuanqi stood up straight and evaluated, his windbreaker fluttering up and down with the wind, having a unique charm, but between his eyebrows and eyes was a clear coldness. He took a few steps forward, looking at the loudspeaker on the table, "Right here."

  The button was pressed down by him again, and the previous sound came once more, a sobbing cry that made people feel a bit uncomfortable.

  "So... is this man-made?" Xia Zhu furrowed her brow.

  Lin Yuan's expression was somewhat cold and mocking: "You don't think... that it's really a ghost seeking revenge?"

  The two words "life and death" floated back and forth in the empty room, finally settling into a silent stillness. If it weren't for the fact that neither of them believed in those ghostly legends, they might have been frightened out of their wits.

  "No." Xia Zhu put on gloves and took over the microphone: "Can you check fingerprints?"

  "It's only natural," Lin Yuanxie said uninterestingly, spreading his hands as he looked at the instruments around him: "That boy accidentally stumbled in here and broke something... Someone was doing an experiment here and got discovered, so naturally they had to silence them."

  "If Ning Ziting is telling the truth, then this person kills very quickly and with extremely cruel means."

  "It's just like someone." Lin Yuan said.

  Xia Zhu looked up at him, his eyebrows and eyes were all calm, with a hint of mockery in his tone: "You've seen it too."

  In an instant, a man with a motorcycle helmet flashed by. His face couldn't be seen, but for some reason, he felt dangerous. Xia Zhu said: "If I see him again next time, I will remember to call the police."

  "You have no reason to catch him," Lin Yuanxie smiled and said lazily, "I will catch him with my own hands, you don't need to worry."

  It's just like those old stories, one day there will be a better answer.

  Xia Zhu turned silently to those instruments, the dilapidated things showing that no one had been here for a long time: "These things should not have been used for a year or two."

  "That's right," Lin Yuan nodded: "He killed that boy, the police must have intervened, and it was impossible to get away without cleaning up at this time. In order to avoid suspicion, he moved the main instrument away, but it is very obvious that he came back later."

  "He's very bold and ruthless in his methods. Normally, he should be a straightforward and efficient person." Xia Zhu analyzed.

  Lin Yuan didn't respond, he simply wiped the dust off lightly and looked at the scratches thoughtfully: "Get Mo Yan to come over and take a look, maybe with good luck we can find something."

  "Good." Xia Zhu immediately nodded and said: "Then what about us? Are we going to find Ning Ziting?"

  "Do you like seeing the parties involved?" Lin Yuan furrowed his brow.

  "No, I just think there's nothing else to do right now."

  "Alright," Lin Yuan nodded, his brow still slightly furrowed: "I have something very important to take you to."

  Xia Zhu didn't say yes or no, and followed Lin Yuan's back out of the door.

  My last impression of the haunted building was at dusk when it was surrounded by police cars, and the warm colors of sunset shrouded the building.

  It's just an old building that has been through the ages, but some people have made it a terrifying place in the campus with ulterior motives. It's unfair to both the students and the building itself.

  Xia Zhu turned around, inexplicably finding Lin Yuanxi's hand on her wrist again. She hesitated for a moment, about to say something, when she saw Lin Yuanxi quietly release his grip: "Let's go."

  "Hmm." Xia Zhu smiled and replied.

  A little kid was running over, chasing after a balloon, stumbling and staggering. Xia Zhu and Lin Yuanxi gave a shout and ran towards the child. There were no parents around, so Xia Zhu squatted down and asked in a soft voice. After a while, she took the little guy's hand and walked towards Lin Yuanxi.

  Lin Yuanxi, who was usually impatient, looked unusually calm: "What?"

  "He wants to go to the haunted house, shall we take him to the school office?" Xia Zhu asked for opinions.

  "No need," Lin Yuan's eyebrows and eyes swept over a hint of deep meaning, looking at the little kid for half a moment before saying: "I'll take him to a place."

  "Summer bamboo silently tightened his grip on the little guy's hand: 'No way.'"

  Lin Yuan furrowed his brow: "I didn't say I'd send him anywhere."

  "You want to send him to Ning Ziting's side, just in time to test him." Xia Zhu rarely firmly rejected Lin Yuanke's proposal.

  Lin Yuan looked at Xia Zhu, who refused to budge, and a hint of impatience flashed between his eyebrows: "He won't do anything in our presence."

  "We shouldn't get outsiders involved in this," Xia Zhu gently grasped the child's hand: "I'm sorry, senior, I don't agree."

  "Alright," Lin Yuan nodded and said: "I'll head back first, you just wait here for his parents."

  Xia Zhuo's face was as beautiful as ever, but between her eyebrows and eyes, there was still the same determination: "Senior, slow down."

  Lin Yuanxi felt that his nose was about to be crooked with anger, but of course he would never show it. He just nodded coldly and walked away quickly without looking back.

  The little guy looked over with a dazed expression and glanced at Xia Zhu's puffy face, asking cautiously: "Sister... did you have a fight with Uncle?"

  "This is called... Xia Zhu cried and laughed: "Nothing," she scratched the little guy's nose tip: "Where are your dad and mom?"

  "Hmm..." The little guy thought for a long time, "At home!"

  "Weren't you brought out by your parents?" Xia Zhu asked in surprise.

  The little guy shook his head and smiled: "Yeah, Dad and Mom live in the residential area, I'm out playing with my brother."

  "Brother?" Xia Zhu's heart suddenly flashed a premonition, she raised her head and happened to see Ning Ziting looking around, the last bit of doubt settled, but instantly changed into new suspicion.

  She stood there watching the little guy giggling and pouncing on Ning Ziteng, who picked up the child and stood up straight, looking at Xia Zhu: "Hey, officer."

  "Do you also live in the residential area?" Xia Zhu asked.

  Ning Ziting walked forward with the child in his arms, "Hmmm, the school environment is too poor, just rent a house outside, and that one, can't be a police officer too..."

  "You can call me whatever you want," Xia Zhu said calmly: "There was someone involved who lived in the family area before, so I asked a question."

  "The person you mentioned... " Ning Ziting's face turned solemn as he asked: "Is it Yan Moqiu's boyfriend?"

  Xia Zhu sighed in her heart and looked at Ning Ziting in front of her: "You've been hiding something, when are you going to tell us what you're hiding?"

  Ning Ziting shook his head, with a somewhat sighing expression: "Compulsory? Ah, what about the policeman's boyfriend?"

  Before Xia Zhuo could respond, a cold voice came from beside him——

  "When did I ever want you to privately approach the parties involved? Ah, Xia Zhu?" Lin Yuanxi called out the two words "Xia Zhu" in a very pleasant tone, but his expression was extremely cold and detached, staring motionlessly at Ning Ziting.
