Chapter 26
The next day, Lin Ji came to the Yamen.

The Song Mansion's case has no clue for the time being, so it can only be put on hold for now.

But he also told the four demon catchers under him not to do their own things anymore, but to walk around the county to see if there was any suspicious person.

Regarding this request, Guo Yi and Lingyin, who were from the Qingcheng faction, naturally had no objection.

Lu Cong only followed Lin Ji's lead, and would not say anything else.

Only Zhou Qian showed embarrassment on his face.

"What's wrong with you?" Lin Ji glared at him.

"The old bustard of Minghualou found me last night and said that he wanted me to invest in Minghualou." Zhou Qian carefully looked at Lin Ji's face and explained, "This matter requires a lot of money, so I have to discuss it in person. .”

Lin Ji was stunned.

He didn't expect Zhou Qian, a first-level product, to be of any help. This kid became a demon catcher to take care of his own business, so everyone usually knew it.

So Lin Ji didn't think he was too much, but just thought it was absurd.

"So you will be the big boss of the brothel in the future? It's rare in the world to have a whore like you." Lin Ji sighed a little.

The other three demon hunters also looked at Zhou Qian.

Guo Yi was expressionless, Lu Cong was grinning, and Ayane was disgusted.

Facing the gazes of his colleagues, Zhou Qian explained: "No, isn't Minghua Building destroyed? It requires a lot of money to rebuild, so I will pay some money to rebuild it, and just buy a share by the way."

"Okay, if you have nothing to do, keep an eye on the situation in the county. I won't make things difficult for you, and you shouldn't push yourself too hard." Lin Ji didn't have the patience to listen to his explanation.

"No problem." Zhou Qian quickly agreed.

This is Lin Butou giving him face, he has to continue.

Lin Ji nodded, and was about to send the demon catchers away.

But when he inadvertently looked at Zhou Qian again, he suddenly stopped.

"Lu Cong, did you finally find this kid last night?" Lin Ji asked.

"No, he went to sixteen mansions, including the Zhou family's mansion, but no one was found." Lu Cong replied.

Lin Ji raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhou Qian.

"Old bustard, are you willing to do it too?"

"The charm is still there, the charm is still there." Zhou Qian smiled dryly.

After dismissing the four demon hunters, Lin Ji also wandered around the county.

After patrolling the streets for a whole day, nothing unusual was found.

In the evening, Lin Ji walked slowly along the way home.

"Could it be that he just killed someone randomly and then left? There are so many ways to kill people, but it's just a zombie, isn't it superfluous?"

Lin Ji can only analyze from the means, but not the motive.

Because several years of experience in hunting demons and headhunting told him that the motive is the most nonsense.

It may be that it is not pleasing to the eye, or it may be simply to have some fun.

There are countless similar things, and the brain circuits of monsters are often different from those of humans.

It seems that instinct is causing trouble, like a ghost asking for life, isn't it just for that little popularity.

The kind of evil cultivation that kills people and refines their souls to improve their cultivation has become the most reliable. At least don't care whether it is legal or not, but people have reasons.

"He came from the Qingcheng faction, or he learned the methods of the Qingcheng faction from somewhere. Could it be that Song Da offended someone? But he cherishes his life so much, even if he can't see through the depth of the other party, he dare not offend easily, why? Will it provoke monks to seek revenge?"

Just when Lin Ji was puzzled, hurried footsteps suddenly sounded behind him.

Looking back, I found that it was an ordinary catcher under him.

"Butou Lin, go to the Song Mansion to have a look."

"What happened again?"

"Old Mrs. Song Song, she hanged herself!"

"what?!"

Song House.

Lin Ji quickly walked into the gate, all the way to the Song family's ancestral hall.

The demon catchers have all arrived, and Zhou Qian is also on the list this time.

Song Da and Song Er knelt on the ground and couldn't stop crying.

The old lady was hanging on the beam of the house, a white silk stretched over her neck, her eyeballs were protruding, and her tongue was sticking out.

Seeing Lin Ji arriving, Guo Yi explained: "In order to let you see the scene, I specially ordered not to let him down."

Lin Ji glanced at Song Da and Song Er, nodded and said, "No need, it must be targeting the Song family, let them go."

Lu Cong and Zhou Qian untied the body and put it on the ground.

Lin Ji looked at Song Da and said coldly, "I'll ask you again, have you offended anyone recently?"

"No, I don't dare to be a villain." Song Da didn't have the spirit of the leader of the Tiger Head Gang.

Lin Ji looked at Song Er again, and Song Er quickly shook his head in denial.

"Yesterday was your wife, today is your mother, who do you think it will be tomorrow?"

Lin Ji patted Song Da on the shoulder, whispered softly, and said slowly: "Is it your father or your brother?"

Song Er beside him trembled.

"Or... is it you?"

"Ling Lin arrests the head." Song Da's voice was trembling.

"Are you scared? If you're scared, think about it! You're a bastard of three religions, but you can't offend others? Are you coaxing ghosts? I can name three or four of your enemies in the county!"

"Think to me, write down all possible things for me!"

Lin Ji said coldly: "It doesn't matter if you can't write it, then don't blame me for watching you being wiped out."

"I'll write it right now!"

After making arrangements for Song Da, Lin Ji opened his spiritual eyes and looked at the old lady's body.

"There is also a place where evil spirits gather."

Lin Ji lifted off the old lady's clothes, this time on the arm, there appeared the same tattoo as yesterday.

According to the weirdness seen yesterday, Lin Ji checked them one by one.

After a while, there was the result.

"It's the living dead again, the method is the same as yesterday." Lin Ji looked at Guo Yi, "This method of hanging is to control the corpse?"

Guo Yi remained silent and inspected the corpse himself.

Moments later, a new tattoo was found on the corpse's thigh.

"It's a tattoo, it's the rune of the puppet talisman."

"There are quite a few tricks." Lin Ji pouted, "It is most likely that someone from the Qingcheng faction did it. It is not clear whether it is an abandoned disciple or something else."

"But no matter what, Lao Guo, it's worth your trip this time."

Guo Yi nodded and said: "I'll go back to the sect to check to see if there are any disciples from Qingyang County who have had a feud with the Song family."

"Yeah." Lin Ji was very satisfied with Guo Yi's alertness.

Compared with before, the scope of investigation at this time has been reduced too much.

Just like Ayane said yesterday.

Although the second homicide should not be expected to happen, because once it happened, it would mean another death, but it did provide extremely useful clues for the investigation.

At least, it's not random anymore.

After Guo Yi left, Lin Ji asked people to restrain the body as usual, and then Lin Ji called Song Er again.

"Song Er, bring your brother and your old father to live next door to my house."

"Thank you, Catcher Lin!" Song Er hurriedly thanked him.

"My neighbors next door are nice, don't treat them badly when you buy a house."

"Don't worry, I will take care of this matter properly."

After dismissing Song Er, Lin Ji looked up at the white silk on the beam, feeling rather troubled.

He didn't know if putting the Song family under his nose would lead to the murderer.

It is best to be able to lead out, no matter how you investigate the case, it is not as good as having a face-to-face meeting with the murderer.

It doesn't matter if they can't be attracted, at least they can keep the rest of the Song family safe.

"If the enemy is dark, we will be clear, please."
