Chapter 157 Catch the Murderer
In the afternoon, she also told Cheng Huai that she would quietly leave the palace and come to the haunted house to catch the murderer.

The two of them quietly left the palace. Xu Anan was leaning on Cheng Huaiye's arms. It was a bit cold, but he was warm.

He lowered his head and stared at her fair face: "When will that person come?"

Xu Anan rolled his eyes and raised his head slightly: "I don't know, I might come."

Cheng Huaiye: "..."

So what she said so confidently this afternoon was she trying to fool him?

"Squeak."

The door to the haunted house was opened, and a figure walked in.

Xu Anan straightened up slightly, and Cheng Huai also concentrated on it.

The figure gradually came closer and revealed her face. Her pupils were empty, like a puppet on strings.

This is... Qiao Acacia!
Xu Anan didn't expect that the eighth victim turned out to be Qiao Xiangsi, and it seemed that his consciousness was indeed controlled. Cheng Huai also frowned. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, killing someone could have been faked like this.

Xu Anan's eyes followed Qiao Xiangsi's footsteps. After a while, a man wearing black clothes and covering his face appeared. He was holding a machete in his hand. He walked very quickly to Qiao Xiangsi's side and stretched out his hand to pull Her hair was dragging on the ground.

Qiao Xiangsi woke up from the pain. She was horrified to find that she was in a strange house and a man was violently raping her.

With tears in her eyes, she screamed: "Help, help!"

The man in black seemed to think she was too noisy, so he chopped off her head with a machete.

Xu Anan threw a piece of tile directly on his hand, and his knife fell with a sound, and then he looked at Xu Anan jumping down from the eaves in horror.

Cheng Huai also tried to stop her, but he was relieved when he saw her landing safely with her hands on the ground. Is this woman playing with her heartbeat?
Xu Anan stood up, patted the dust in his hands, and looked at him with a smile: "You've made me wait for you."

Cheng Huai also flew down and stood next to Xu Anan. The man in black knew that Cheng Huai was very skilled as soon as he saw him. A cold light flashed in the man's eyes and he threw Qiao Xiangsi to Xu Anan. Run inside.

Xu Anan took Qiao Xiangsi and handed it to Cheng Huaiye behind him: "Look at her."

As soon as he finished speaking, he chased the shadow.

Cheng Huai's face turned dark. General Zhu had already laid an ambush, so he rushed in: "Your Majesty, where are the thieves?"

Cheng Huai also took Qiao Xiangsi aside: "Chase! Let the imperial guards outside catch the suspicious figure when they see it, and keep him alive."

After saying that, he chased in Xu Anan's direction.

Xu Anan chased the black shadow all the way to the west. At the ancestral hall where Muxue died, he turned a corner and jumped over the wall and ran away.

Xu Anan also rolled out, and Cheng Huai now saw that Xu Anan was really physically strong, so why did he just stop on the bed?

He looked at the courtyard wall and sighed, simply too lazy to chase, so he turned a corner and went to the ancestral hall not far away, but the closer he got, the stronger the smell of blood became.

Cheng Huai also stared at the closed door. He lowered his eyes slightly and saw the blood overflowing from the crack of the door. He reached out and pushed the door open, and a corpse fell in front of him. There was also a Buddha in the front. As if smiling compassionately at him.

There were guards outside. Seeing Xu Anan chasing her out, they all followed her: "Madam, that figure ran to that alley." Xu Anan saw that it was the one He Min took her away with last time. Taking a shortcut, she chased after him without hesitation.

There was a sudden scream in the alley. Xu Anan approached holding a fire folder and saw He Min who was leaning against the wall and stabbed in the abdomen.

He covered the wound with his hand, blood dripping from his fingers and dripping on the ground. He also held a black face towel in his hand.

Seeing Xu Anan coming, he endured the pain and knelt down: "Madam, why are you here? By the way, I just saw a figure in black running out from here, but my subordinate couldn't stop him and was stabbed instead. Try your best to pull off his face towel."

There was a little blood on the face towel, which was He Min's blood. Xu Anan lowered his eyes and asked, "Why are you here?"

He Min raised his hand to wipe his sweat: "My subordinate's home is just over the shortcut. I bought medicine here and went home. I didn't expect to meet a bad person."

Xu Anan glanced at him: "You should get up first."

After He Min stood up, Xu Anan continued: "Nanwei didn't hesitate to stab himself just to disguise himself. It shows that he is a ruthless person."

He Min's face changed greatly, and he looked at Xu An'an in disbelief: "Empress, I don't understand what you are talking about, why do you want to hurt yourself? Please tell me, I really came here to buy medicine."

The hand he was covering the wound was holding a medicinal material wrapped in oil paper, dripping with his blood.

"Hey." A male voice sounded from the darkness: "Why are you pretending, you big-tailed wolf?"

Mu Qing appeared from behind He Min, holding a set of black clothes that he had taken off, which were the clothes of the figure in black just now.

Mu Qing smiled and threw the clothes at He Min's feet: "Here, I helped you find your clothes from under the bricks, no thanks."

After saying that, he looked at Xu An'an again: "Your Majesty, you are so wise. Most people really can't stand this guy."

Xu Anan praised without hesitation: "Well done."

She looked at He Min again: "Is there anything else you want to say?"

He Min's expression changed, and he was silent for a moment before laughing loudly. He was guarding against Xu An'an, but he failed to guard against her, and fell into her trap.

He leaned against the wall, his expression was not as dejected as a loser, but his eyes were shining with excitement: "I want to know how you guessed me."

Xu Anan smiled and said, "Who would come to be courteous to me right from the start? If you want to know my details, I will reveal them to you. When you know that I am just out for fun, you will do your best to take me around." , who needs to be familiar with the entire Qijing?"

"A villain who kills people so that he can escape in time will keep the terrain of Qijing in mind, and he will place props in various places to deal with emergencies at any time."

"He Min, although I will be able to find you sooner or later, you are too eager to supervise me."

He Min laughed twice. It turned out that it was because of his initial attentiveness that Xu Anan suspected him. Should he say that he underestimated women, or that Xu Anan was too smart, and she was more capable than the perpetrators like them? Can see into people's hearts.

He Min was indeed afraid that his plan would be disrupted because of Xu Anan's presence, but it was no longer important, he lost.

He sat on the ground feebly: "Actually, I was going to stop killing this princess who came from Princess Pingle's Mansion, but I didn't expect that I would be caught. Hahaha, you can kill or cut her into pieces as you please. , I won’t resist.”

Xu Anan looked at Mu Qing: "Take him to Jingzhao Mansion Prison."
