Chapter 5 5. Witnesses

The agarwood induces the hair on the back of my neck to stand upright.

What a fierce murderous aura!
  She took two steps forward before looking back.

No matter how fast she reacts, she won't be able to withstand He Chongtian's master.

When he turned around, he was met by a big hand with sinuous veins grabbing his throat.

The eyes that were close at hand were filled with cruelty and violence.

He Chongtian had only one thought at the moment: hurt her! Hurt her! Let her cry and beg you to let go!
  But Chen Xiangyin's expression was very abnormal. There was no fear in her eyes, and there was a dead silence.

The body showed no signs of struggling at all.

He Chongtian had never seen anyone look like this when they were about to be strangled to death.

She didn't seem to be afraid of death, and even said that she wanted to die.

The agarwood was suffocated to the point where I felt dizzy and my throat hurt.

Before her vision went dark, she was pushed hard and fell heavily against the wall.

He Chongtian let her go.

She quickly regained her breath, blood continued to seep from the corners of her mouth, and her voice was hoarse: "You don't look like a soft-hearted person."

"Madman." He Chongtian commented disdainfully.

"Aren't you?" Chen Xiangyin spat out another mouthful of blood and was seriously injured.

He touched the red mark on his fair neck and said, "Hiss—you are really quite strong."

She picked up the cigarettes on the table next to her, lit one, and threw the cigarette case to He Chongtian.

He shot it away in the sky, "I won't kill you because you are still useful. Tell me, what happened to your grandma?"

Chen Xiang kept her eyes on him and exhaled a puff of smoke, "I don't know, you heard it too. The body is missing. How about you find the body and I can ask her for you?"

He cursed lowly, then turned to leave.

Chen Xiangyin looked at his back and said, "Handsome guy, if you lied to me, I will go to your house to find you again."

Seeing his back disappear from the corner of the stairs, Chen Xiang grimaced.

Putting out the cigarette, she closed her eyes and began to tease out the current clues.

She didn't like the feeling of closing her eyes, the total blackness of her conscious state.

Countless corrupted faces that were difficult to distinguish in the darkness surged toward her with ferocious roars.

Some of the faces she recognized, some she didn't recognize, or maybe she had forgotten them.

They all wanted to pull her into the dark abyss.

Deep in the darkness, something more terrifying is dormant, chaotic and silent.

Scarier than death, scarier than terror itself.

She didn't want to go back to Biluo Ancient Town because she was hiding from "that thing".

Here, she felt it particularly strongly.

Intangible, not a person, not a disaster, and not a force, but more powerful than anything known.

"Back..." A toneless voice appeared in her mind out of thin air, like a soliloquy in her mind, but she knew that it was not her own thoughts.

Chen Xiang suddenly opened her eyes, her face turned pale, and the surrounding vegetation was full of dangers, as if something terrifying would suddenly appear.

The fear that always followed me came again.

……

Chen Xiangyin inquired about Gu Yunshi's dormitory and visited empty-handed.

It's not that she doesn't look down on other people's careers, it's just that she is really tight on money.

The door to the simple single room on the second floor was opened by a fat and fair man. He was so surprised when he saw Chenxiang that he forgot to speak.

Not to mention that he has never seen such a beautiful woman in his life, not even on TV.

The dark blue cheongsam outlines her tall and graceful figure, and she has a bright, goddess-like face with cold eyes.

Four words suddenly appeared in the mind of the 200-pound man: Sister, kill me! !

"Is Gu Yun serious?" Chen Xiang asked, but the fat man did not move.

Looking into the room, everyone in the room was also looking at her, and they were all curious, where did Gu Yunshi, the mountain boy, meet such a fairy?

Someone patted Gu Yunshi on the back: "Looking for you?"

When Gu Yunshi turned around, he saw the face of a stubborn young man. He looked young, quite tall, but very thin.

As thin as nine meals in three days.

When he saw Chen Xiangyin, his expression was unnatural, and he deliberately shouted loudly and boldly: "What are you doing? Who are you?"

"I have something to do with you. Could you please lend me a moment to talk?"

Gu Yunshi picked up his dragging shoes and walked out of the room.

There were still people behind him exclaiming: "How lucky is this boy Gu Yunshi? I picked up a jade bracelet on the road two days ago, and today a beautiful woman is looking for it."

Another person was not happy: "What kind of blessing can it be? Maybe the beauty is here to get the bracelet."

Chen Xiangyin suddenly thought that when he was sorting out the belongings, he did not see the jade bracelet she gave Shen Yueying.

"What do you want from me?" Yun Shi was worried, worried that she was here to ask for the bracelet.

As expected, Chen Xiangyin said, "Can you let me see that bracelet?"

The men in the room burst into laughter: "Hahahaha——"

Gu Yunshi looked ugly and stood still.

Chen Xiangyin added: "Don't worry, I don't want it. I'll give it to you. I'll just take a look."

"This beauty wants to take the stolen goods and send them to Gu Yunshi." Someone else said.

Chen Xiangyin glanced at the crowd, "Have I spoken to you?"

Her voice was not loud, but it was extremely intimidating, and the group of men immediately stopped.

"I just want to take a look and find a place for you to sit down."

Gu Yunshi's eyes froze. This was the first time a woman invited him to "have a sit".

Regardless of the inhuman beauty of agarwood, when it comes to being alone with the opposite sex, the last time was in my hometown, cutting wheat in the field with the neighbor's tiger girl.

……

The coffee shop on East Street was chosen by Gu Yunshi. He passed by it many times while patrolling, and the charming aroma of coffee always wafted from the shop, but he never came in.

Chen Xiangyin pinched the jade bracelet and looked at it, confirming that it was undoubtedly the one given to Shen Yueying.

"Where did you pick it up?"

Yunshi drank the coffee that he had imagined the taste of many times. He almost squirted out as soon as he took a sip.

What's this? It tastes worse than traditional Chinese medicine!

He pretended to be calm: "Yan Xing Lake."

"Yanxing Lake, I heard that you took several days off after working the night shift that day? What's wrong?"

"Uncomfortable." Gu Yunshi wanted to appear to be able to cope with it easily, but he exerted too much force and his whole body became tense.

"What's uncomfortable?"

Gu Yunshi lowered his head and did not answer.

"What did you see that night?" Chen Xiang stared into his eyes, trying to find out something.

There was fear in Gu Yunshi's eyes, and he was in a daze, as if he was remembering, until he shuddered.

"nothing."

"What are you afraid of?" Chen Xiangyin asked.

"I told you, it's nothing." Gu Yunshi responded loudly.

"That night, an old man drowned in Yanxing Lake. It was my grandma. The police are still investigating. If you don't tell me now, you have to go to the interrogation room of the police station to tell her."

Gu Yunshi's eyes were horrified, and he suddenly waved his arm and swept all the cups and plates in front of him to the ground.

"I told you! I didn't see anything!" He almost immediately switched to a state of stress.

What on earth did you see that scared a young man like this?
  The little waitress came over to clean things up with a disgusted look on her face.

Chen Xiang apologized: "I'm so sorry. I will compensate for the loss."

Then he leaned back on the sofa: "Let's not talk about this first, let's talk about something else."

She looked Yunshi up and down: "Why is a smart guy like you working as a security guard here?"

Gu Yunshi realized his gaffe, and his tone was a bit weak, "What's wrong with working as a security guard in Biluo Ancient Town?"

"Is the salary high? I have a younger brother who is about your age and doesn't have a job either."

How could she have any younger brother? Open your mouth and come.

But when it came to this, Yunshi became interested: "You don't even know this? Qinglong Group."

"Qinglong Group?"

"Are you from out of town? Qinglong Group, here is this one." Yunshi gave a thumbs up.

"It can hold up half the sky, but it's not a gang, it's a large group with huge power and involvement in various industries. The group boss, our leader, Shenlong is nowhere to be seen. Generally, you can only hear the movements of a few hall leaders."

Yun Shi lifted one shoulder and pointed his finger on the table: "Biluo Ancient Town, such a large scenic spot, is built and operated by the Qinglong Group. We are under the management of the auditorium."

Chen Xiangyin thought thoughtfully. Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes. "Isn't there other branches?"

"Yeah! A while ago, the head of the hall also bought a mountainside villa in the cultural and tourism area of ​​Biluo Ancient Town. There are rumors that he wants to encroach on the power of the auditorium and grab the territory." Gu Yunshi talked eloquently.

Chen Xiangyin ate a biscuit and looked out the window. The chief magistrate should be the most powerful person in the branch.

The water in Biluo Ancient Town is quite deep.

"Then when you become a security guard, when will you be able to get ahead?"

Yun Shi scratched his forehead: "Hey, actually I was registered as an employee before and followed Brother Wang. Later, something happened and I was transferred here. However, Brother Wang is so righteous that he will not let me work here for the rest of my life. Security guard."

Brother Wang? Could it be that wretched man with a big bump on his head?
  "Pepsi in Biluo Ancient Town?" Chenxiang asked to test.

Yunshi was full of energy: "Yes! Do you know my boss?"

"I've seen him twice." Chen Xiangyin did not hide his disgust, "But Gu Yunshi, you can't get far."

"Why do you say that!" Yunshi slapped the table, unconvinced.

This kid is too impetuous, but he is also very easy to provoke.

"Because you are timid." Chen Xiangyin put another biscuit into his mouth, biting it loudly.

Yun Shi gritted his back teeth and stopped talking.

"Look at how scared you are. You are still fooling around. Why are you so scared? I am a woman, and I am more courageous than you." Chen Xiang said with a scornful smile as he used the last hit.

"You!" Yun Shi pointed at Chen Xiangyin angrily.

"Okay, don't blame me for not reminding you, don't blame me if you're scared!" Yun Shi said as if he had broken a jar.

He took out his mobile phone, clicked it twice and handed it to Chen Xiangyin.

"Look, turn down the volume." Yunshi looked ugly and stepped back with his arms folded, obviously afraid of what was on the phone.

Chen Xiangyin took it and it was a video, shot from a candid perspective, pitch black.

In the video, Gu Yunshi whispered: "F*ck, what is that in front of me? F*ck!"

As the lens zooms in, it becomes blurry and distinguishable, which is Yanhang Lake.

Wearing a floral cotton-padded jacket and kneeling in the shallow water with a stooped body, it was Shen Yueying.

In an extremely twisted posture, her left hand went around behind her and pressed on her neck, pressing her head into the water.

But his right hand kept fluttering and struggling, slapping the water hard and making huge splashes.

The old voice kept calling for help, begging for mercy, moaning in pain...

The whole process was shocking until I couldn't move.

Chen Xiang watched the whole process of Shen Yueying being drowned by "himself" with heart-wrenching eyes.

Then Yunshi babbled to himself in an excessively frightened manner, wondering whether to go and see what was going on.

Suddenly, the screen changed, and at the same time as Yun Shi screamed in the film, Shen Yueying's face with ridges and gray eyes appeared on the screen.

"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhing but being being tinging?"

In the video, Gu Yunshi screamed and threw his phone.

But the camera just happened to be fixed on Shen Yueying staggering towards the ancient town.

As he walked, he took off his wet clothes.
