"He's dead."

As soon as I got up and before I had packed my things, the door opened and the captain came over.

"who?"

I asked.

"That's the young man."

What the captain meant was the impolite young man at the house of the old gentleman we visited yesterday.

He died in that villa.

And when he is about to die...

"What's wrong?"

I was shocked. Could it be that I knew that I went to that place last night, so I came to find me now? If that was the case, and the traces left behind found me, and the person died again, wouldn't I be able to say anything even if I had the words to say? Got it.

"Did you find anything else?"

I asked nervously.

But at this time, because the captain was anxious to solve the case, he didn't find any clues to the matter, and he didn't notice my expression.

"By the way, do you know what else I discovered?"

"What?"

I have a bad feeling.

"We found out that the young man and the old man who committed suicide were both father and son. So he must have lied to us."

the captain said.

"ah?"

I pretended to be surprised, because just last night, I actually already knew the whole story.

It's just that I can't figure out how this person died?

Is it also suicide?

There is no reason.

"How did he die?"

I asked.

"It's still under investigation, but there seemed to be signs of a fight in the entire house before his death, and most of the things were damaged."

The captain analyzed, "It can't be murder for money, but unfortunately, the surrounding surveillance seems not to be perfect, so there are not that many clues now."

I breathed a sigh of relief.

Two lives were lost in two days in a row, so the leaders of Lishan City are naturally paying great attention to it.

However, according to their investigation into the villa again, they found something.

The ancient gentleman had actually been dead for a long time, but his body was intact, as if he was asleep. And the dead young man was not a student of the ancient gentleman.

"Then what's their relationship?"

I asked.

I really didn't expect this discovery, but the captain didn't know much about it and couldn't be sure.

"Any other discoveries?"

"We also found a lot of strange things in that house, which are all superstitious items, including some magic swords and paper charms, and..."

"how?"

I asked quickly.

"You know there is a book called Journey to the West, right?"

he asked me.

I'm a little depressed. In this country, except for newborn children, almost everyone doesn't know.

"What does it matter?"

I asked.

"It matters a lot."

There are other secret passages in the villa.

"And the large space inside is dedicated to the bodies of those demons mentioned in Journey to the West." The captain said, as if he still had goosebumps all over his body just thinking about it.

"What? Body?"

My name for these two words is somewhat unpleasant.

"right……"

He was sure, "It's the body, because the demon is flesh, it's flesh...and I'm pretty sure I saw it right."

He told me that the experts have now come to the villa to find out.

No one can tell exactly what happened.

And according to the captain's description, the shapes of the monsters and monsters recorded in Journey to the West were exactly the same, and they were not made of stone statues or jade, but seemed to be meat. It was so soft that some people were almost scared to death on the spot.

"What's that?"

I mused.

And he said that almost all the monsters mentioned in the book Journey to the West appeared, as if it were a small museum, lifelike.

It seems that we have entered a country of monsters.

"It's just incredible."

The captain said, "This matter must be kept secret for the time being. It cannot be publicized yet, at least until a conclusion has been reached."

I nodded.

"By the way, is there any news about Zhang Dachui recently?"

the captain suddenly asked me.

"not yet."

I answered.

"I don't know why, but so many things have happened recently. It's really weird." The captain sighed, "It's all caused by that Zhang Dachui."

"By the way, Zhang Dachui's hometown is in Luoxian County. Do you think this kid is hiding in Luoxian County and won't come out?"

The captain seemed to have thought of something.

"Are you still planning to go to the county seat?"

I laughed.

The captain didn't answer, just answered a call and left. Judging from his expression, it should be the latest progress in the case.

No one from the captain was found for two days in a row.

He comes to my shop almost every day. He originally thought he was here to monitor me, but later on, he became a friend that I talked to about everything in Lishan.

I'm still not used to the fact that he hasn't been here for the past two days.

Could it be that he was sent out to investigate a new case?

"Mr. Lin!"

In the afternoon, when I was about to close the door, an anxious voice broke the silence around me.

Is there anyone out there at this late hour?

I turned around and saw that it was a policeman.

I am naturally familiar with this person. He is the policeman who often follows the captain. He stands behind me with a serious face.
