Chu Nuanxia heard the sound of people trying to enter the house. In a moment of desperation, she pulled Mo Li into the bedroom closet to hide.
She felt a little uneasy. She didn't know if the president's family members had finally gotten the keys and were planning to rummage through the closet for the real estate certificate, or if the police were planning to investigate the deceased president's home, or if it was just a simple thief.
A moment later, she heard the sound of three people talking and footsteps outside the door.
The girl thought for a moment and realized that the three people's voices did not match the police from the nearby police station.
Moreover, if the president's family members had gotten the keys, it would be impossible for only three men to come … After all, there were many people who coveted the president's property.
In that case, the most unreliable 'thief' was the most reasonable explanation at the moment.
She couldn't be that unlucky, right? No, judging from the first half of her life, it was not impossible for her to encounter such an unlucky incident.
Should she call the police?
No, the police wouldn't be able to explain why she and Mo Li were in this room. Also, if she called the police, there would be some noise. If the criminals noticed, everything would be over.
The first thing to do now was to sneak out of the house when the criminals weren't paying attention. After that, it would be better to pretend that they saw the 'Chaoyang people' sneaking into the apartment and report them.
"I feel like something's not right here," one of the young men said doubtfully.
"Hey, don't be so surprised. Could there be ghosts here?"
Then, an older man's voice rang out.
"Yes, yes, we should focus on finding the important things now."
Then, a young man's voice sounded like he was gloating for some reason.
"Why do you say that … Is it my imagination? Old Xu, you seem to be in a good mood … "
The young man said in a doubtful tone.
Their conversation made Chu Nuanxia a little curious.
First of all, judging from this conversation, the purpose of these three people was not as simple as burglary.
If their goal was only money, then the gloating man wouldn't have said 'important things'. Instead, he would have said 'valuable things' or 'valuable things'.
Of course, if the important thing was explained as a real estate certificate, it didn't seem wrong.
However, if he wanted to change the name on the real estate certificate, he would have to explain the source of the change. It was not as simple as just getting the real estate certificate. Moreover, to be honest, doing so would easily be noticed by the police. No one with a brain would do such a thing.
Therefore, what exactly was the 'important thing' that they were talking about earlier? It was very thought-provoking.
"…"
The girl was silent for a moment. Then, an idea flashed through her mind.
Could it be related to the death of the guild leader, or even the curse of the game?
Thus, Chu Nuanxia couldn't hold back her curiosity. She didn't expect that the other party was just bluffing. She secretly opened the cabinet door a little, revealing a small gap to peek at the situation outside.
Since the bedroom door was facing the living room, the two were quite close to each other. Therefore, they could clearly see what was going on in the living room. This was also why Chu Nuanxia had subconsciously brought Mo Li to the bedroom.
Looking through the gap, she saw that there were three men outside, just as she had guessed before.
Two of them were about 20 years old. Although they weren't considered handsome, one of them could be considered delicate and good-looking. The other was just a passer-by with a slightly high hairline.
Other than that, there was also an old man.
However, unlike the two young men who were dressed in ordinary casual clothes, this old man was wearing a decent Taoist robe. He had white hair, a youthful face, and a long snow-white beard. If it weren't for the fact that his robe looked dirty, as if he had rolled around on the ground, this old man might have looked like an otherworldly immortal.
After the three of them exchanged a few words, they began to split up to look for something.
Unfortunately, because the passer-by with a slightly high hairline was assigned to the bedroom and kept wandering in front of the wardrobe, Chu Nuanxia couldn't find a chance to escape.
She took the time to look at Mo Li next to her.
The girl's face was blocked by the clothes hanging down from the wardrobe, so she couldn't see her expression. However, she was leaning against the wardrobe, hugging her knees. She looked as if she was afraid, but also as if she had simply fallen asleep.
Obviously, in this kind of emergency, no normal person would fall asleep. Therefore, Chu Nuanxia thought that the girl might be afraid.
Therefore, she softly comforted her.
"It's okay. Don't worry, I'll definitely get you out of here."
The little girl didn't answer.
Chu Nuanxia thought that the other party was too nervous and didn't know what to say. Or maybe she didn't listen to her at all.
In short, through the gap in the door, Chu Nuanxia could see that the other party was flipping through the wardrobe in the bedroom, looking for something.
In the meantime, he even found more than ten property certificates in the drawer, a woman's bra in the crevice between the bedside table and the bed, a few coins and a few small yellow books under the bed, a ball of paper in the trash can with the smell of dried squid, a handful of moldy dog biscuits under the cushions of the sofa, and a strange red pebble-shaped object in the crevice of the sofa, which would make a buzzing sound when the switch was pressed …
Speaking of which, there were too many strange things in this bedroom! What kind of life did the president lead in the past?
Chu Nuanxia, who witnessed all of this, complained loudly in her heart.
However, she soon realized that the situation was not good.
This was because the other party had searched almost every corner of the room. Now, with a strange smile on his face, he was approaching the wardrobe step by step.
The girl panicked a little and took out the stun baton from her backpack.
She hoped that the moment the other party opened the wardrobe, she would use the stun baton to attack him. As long as she could paralyze the other party in a short time and make him lose his ability to move, she might be able to escape with Mo Li.
However, putting aside the old Taoist who didn't seem to be a threat, the other young man was also a big problem … Unlike the passer-by in front of him, that person's every move was the same as the armed police he had seen before. Not only were there no flaws, but they were also full of power.
It would be bad if they were stopped by the other party in the middle of their escape.
Chu Nuanxia didn't think that the two or three rounds of military boxing she practiced when she was bored could compete with a real armed police officer.
Maybe it would be a good choice to escape from the balcony by the floor-to-ceiling window …
As the passer-by got closer and closer to the wardrobe, Chu Nuanxia felt her breathing begin to quicken.
She couldn't help but smile bitterly. No matter how perfect the plan was, when it came to implementing it, she would still be nervous.
She didn't know if it was a psychological effect or something else, but Chu Nuanxia felt that the other party was getting closer and closer to the wardrobe at a slower speed. Even the movement of his hand reaching for the wardrobe door became incomparably slow.
Just as the other party was about to open the door, the other young man suddenly exclaimed from the study.
"Xu, come over and see this!"
Thus, the passer-by stopped what he was doing, left a meaningful smile, and left the room.
Chu Nuanxia collapsed in the wardrobe, gasping for air. Only now did she realize that her heart was beating wildly.
She didn't want to experience such an exciting situation again.
"Mo Li? Mo Li! "
She shook Mo Li, who was beside her, to get the latter to come back to his senses.
"Hmm?" Mo Li's voice had a hint of confusion, as if he had just woken up. If Chu Nuanxia didn't know that the other party was scared out of his wits, she would have thought that the girl had fallen asleep.
"Are you going to escape? Are you okay? "
Chu Nuanxia asked Mo Li softly.
"Oh, yeah."
Mo Li looked outside through the crack in the door. He seemed to be in a dilemma, but in the end, he nodded.
The two of them quietly opened the wardrobe door. Then, while the other three people were gathered in the study, they carefully but quickly walked through the living room.
As they slipped through the door of the study, Chu Nuanxia heard a voice coming from inside.
"What? The victim's sister actually left a suicide note before she committed suicide?"
Probably because the other party was too shocked, his voice was particularly loud. Judging from the tone of his voice, it should be the passer-by with a relatively high hairline.
Chu Nuanxia secretly memorized this information in her heart. Then, she and Mo Li quietly left the victim's house.
After arriving outside the apartment, Mo Li stretched his body without any signs of nervousness and yawned loudly.
"Let's go to Jiang Jin's Second People's Hospital now," Chu Nuanxia said immediately.
“？”
Mo Li tilted his head. His long blonde hair flowed down the girl's fragrant shoulders. She had a puzzled expression on her face.
"Didn't the three people just say that the president's sister left a suicide note? Although there's no way to confirm the contents of the note, maybe the hospital where his sister is currently staying will have some clues. "
Chu Nuanxia bit her lip. She seemed to be regretting that she didn't find the note before those people. However, she quickly composed herself and said, "We have to move faster. At least, we can't let those people catch up to us! Mo Li, let's go! "
"…"
The little girl could only show a helpless expression as she was dragged away by Chu Nuanxia.
Let's turn the camera around and look at the main character again.
Unlike Xu Shenxing, who was teasing Chu Nuanxia, Xiao Zhengyi had been trying to find clues to this case from the beginning.
After all, although Xu Shenxing and the others knew that this incident was purely a murder, for most people, the deceased died in an accident.
If they wanted to punish the criminal and prevent him from getting away with it, they could only rely on the power of the Super Administrative Office. For this, certain clues and decisive evidence were necessary.
Of course, if the mastermind behind this incident was willing to jump out and confront them, that would be the best. Xu Shenxing would probably be more than happy to punch the mastermind into pieces.
In short, he quickly found some clues in the study that might be helpful to the case. Even the "Socialist Construction Program of the Party and the Government" on the computer's D drive was revealed to him after he cracked the password with a special device that the Super Administrative Office had assigned to the city level.
Of course, other than learning that the deceased's sexual preference was probably 'big sister', 'red tights', 'fishnet stockings', and 'Armstrong Rotary Jet Armstrong Gun', he didn't obtain anything particularly useful.
But then, he found a few bundles of cash and a letter in a secret safe.
He would not touch things like cash. After all, he was a civil servant, unlike a certain landlord who was about to go crazy from poverty.
However, he was very interested in the letter, so he opened it and read it.
It turned out that it was a suicide note left by the deceased's vegetative sister before she committed suicide.
Judging from the date of signature, this suicide note corresponded to the suicide incident where the deceased's sister became a vegetative person and jumped off the building.
In this way, it was somewhat suspicious that the deceased did not make it in time for her sister's suicide.
For a moment, Xiao Zhengyi's mind was filled with emotional entanglements that were enough to film 120 episodes of a large-scale modern family ethics drama.
However, Xiao Zhengyi was not the kind of person who would indulge in his own world. After discovering this, he immediately called the other two people (especially Xu Shenxing) over.
"What? The deceased's sister actually left a suicide note before she committed suicide!"
When Xu Shenxing heard him explain the whole story, he said loudly with a fake shocked expression.
"Why did you say it so loudly …" Xiao Zhengyi dug his ears with a helpless expression.
Then he frowned and asked in confusion, "Wait, was there any sound outside just now?"
"No, it was just your imagination."
Xu Shenxing immediately replied.
"In short, Mr. Police Officer, what you mean is that the president deliberately didn't save his sister, causing her to become a vegetative person?" The old Taoist brought the topic back.
"It's more sinister. The other party always wanted to talk. Maybe the deceased originally planned to wait for her sister to die and take the inheritance for herself." Xiao Zhengyi guessed.
"If that's the case, can't we make a better guess? For example, the deceased didn't see the suicide note before this, or when she saw the suicide note, it was already too late. "
Xu Shenxing shook his head and said, "This doesn't mean anything. To be honest, compared to us blindly guessing here, it's better to see if we can find any clues from the contents of the suicide note."
Just as the old Taoist priest was about to say something, he saw the computer next to him suddenly emit a burst of green smoke. Then, a cluster of sparks spread out from the computer and leaped straight toward the old Taoist priest who had yet to react!
