Chapter 4 4. Bundle

When He Chongtian drowsily opened his eyes, he saw Chen Xiangyin's graceful figure in the distance.

When his vision cleared, he could see that she was leaning over the table, peeling an apple. The long apple skin was bending and falling without breaking.

I tried to stand up but couldn't move.

He was tied to the pillars of the house.

The knotting method of the rope is very special. It is usually used to tie pigs in the countryside. The more you struggle, the tighter it gets.

The agarwood twitched his ears, and he looked back at the crane soaring into the sky.

A bright white light came out of the window, hitting his furry eyebrows, forming a strong contrast with the shadows.

"How did you sleep?"

Chen Xiang approached He Chongtian with her bare feet on the floor and squatted down.

He's eyes were as sharp as a knife, and he said coldly: "Untie it."

Chen Xiang took a bite of the apple, holding a fruit knife in his other hand, and put it against He Chongtian's face.

"I have to say, you were really good-looking. It would be a pity to die."

He Tongtian struggled so hard that the pillars of the old house were shaken by him.

"Hey, hey, hey -" Chen Xiangyin said slowly, "If the house collapses, you will die."

"I will drag you with me even if I die!" He Chongtian burst into laughter from his throat and continued to shake the pillars of the room with all his strength, his eyes spreading scarlet.

Chen Xiangyin took another bite of the apple, rolled it on her long and white neck and swallowed it.

"Stop wasting your energy and tell me, what does Yueying's death have to do with you?"

"Passing by, curious." Veins popped up on He Chongtian's arms, and he was radiating heat.

"I don't believe it. I never, never believe in coincidence." Chen Xiang pressed the back of the knife against the man's throat, moving it down to his chest, then down to his abdomen, and then down to between his legs.

"If you don't tell me, I'll have to assume it was you who did it."

He Chongtian pursed his lips tightly, he believed she could do it.

Unexpectedly, he would fall into the hands of a woman.

"Why are you staring at me like this? Do you want to eat?" Chen Xiangyin cut off a piece of apple from an unbitten area and handed it to He Chongtian's mouth.

He Chongtian suddenly turned away.

Chen Xiangyin disagreed and ate it himself: "Think about it carefully, if I count to three, if you still insist on speaking, I will have no choice but to kill you."

"3."

"2."

"1."

Chen Xiang's eyes suddenly burst out with ferocity, and the tip of the knife quickly stabbed He Chongtian's chest.

Crane shouted to the sky: "Okay!"

The tip of the knife still penetrated slightly, not really to scare him.

Chen Xiangyin saw the fanatical anger in his eyes, which seemed to burn people.

What's wrong with him? Are you excited about being threatened with death?
  "Say, listen." Chen Xiangyin turned his head and put his ears forward.

"It's not me, but I can help you."

Chen Xiangyin turned the fruit knife in his hand and said, "I need your help?"

"How did she die? When did she die?" He Chongtian asked.

"Drown to death six days ago." Chen Xiangyin said this with a cold tone.

"Monitoring from the liquid in which she drowned, the data analyzed which water body she was in, locked the location, and retrieved the monitoring."

Is technology so advanced? Agarwood's expression did not change: "What else?"

"Six nights ago, a security guard who was patrolling at night in Biluo Ancient Town was so frightened by what he saw that he took several days off and went around claiming to have seen ghosts."

"Should you lie to me?"

"If you don't believe me, go find him. His name is Gu Yunshi. The place he patrols is Yanxing Lake."

The wound on his chest was painful from being strangled by the hemp rope, and He Tingtian leaned back.

Chen Xiangyin said thoughtfully: "Where do you live?"

"What?"

"If you lie to me, I will kidnap you back."

He Chongtian was furious, but he also felt a sense of pleasure. When had he ever experienced such humiliation?
  Can't wait for another fight, he will definitely fight back with pleasure.

Agarwood held an apple in her red lips, pinched a paint-stained pen, and scribbled He Chongtian's address in her address book.

"The crane rises to the sky." Chen Xiang said his name: "You are so capable, can you untie this knot by yourself?"

After saying that, he stood up and left. The man kicked off his legs, struggled and cursed.

Chenxiang led downstairs without looking back. Just halfway downstairs, she heard a knock on the door.

At the same time, the loudspeaker of the mobile phone also rang.

Caller ID: Zhai Xinhou.

If you didn’t come earlier or later, why did you come at this time?

The loudspeaker of the mobile phone is so loud that it can be heard outside.

At the moment, there are still many hanging cranes on the second floor, and he is like a bomb that is about to explode, ready to go off.

"Sorry handsome."

After Chen Xiangyin finished speaking, he stepped forward and grabbed He Chongtian's collar, and struck hard at the back of his neck with his other hand.

He Chongtian had no time to react and was knocked unconscious at his mercy.

…    Agarwood opened the door for Zhai Xinhou and greeted him with a smile.

Zhai Xinhou smiled innocently.

He seems to always have this face, always in a good mood.

He sidled through the door, followed by two other police officers.

"What's wrong?" Chen Xiang asked.

"Your grandma's body is missing."

Agarwood causes thunderbolts from the blue, how can a good person disappear? !
  Zhai Xinhou added: "Old Bu said it was stolen in the middle of the night."

"Then what are you here for?" Chenxiang raised alarm. Could it be that they suspected her of stealing the body?

"Ms. Shen, I'm sorry, it's just a matter of routine. I have to ask you a few questions. Does your grandma have any other people she usually interacts with?"

Agarwood draws Qi everywhere. If they didn't doubt her for no reason and didn't let her bring Yueying back, how could Yueying's body be lost?

Her tone was cold: "You lost the body and you come to me for it?"

Zhai Xinhou chuckled twice: "Miss Shen, it's just a formality. I'll search it. I won't mess up your things."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and waved, instructing the two people behind him: "Be careful when searching, don't make a mess."

The two received the order and immediately started searching.

"Don't touch my things!" Chen Xiangyin warned.

Zhai Xinhou touched the back of his head and said in a coaxing tone: "I'm sorry, we just want to recover the old man's body as soon as possible."

The wooden ceiling above his head suddenly made a noise.

Zhai Xinhou's expression brightened: "Miss Shen, is there anyone else at home?"

Yes...or not?

Zhai Xinhou took the lead upstairs.

Chen Xiangyin quickly weaved reasonable lies in his mind.

Otherwise, should we still call them husband and wife? Interesting? No, without ID, the police are not that easy to fool.

Shen Yueying's body was missing, and she was already a target of suspicion. If someone was found tied up in the house again, it would be even more unclear...

While thinking about it, Chen Xiangyin had already followed Zhai Xinhou upstairs.

Chen Xiangyin looked at the pillar with the crane tied to the sky resignedly, but saw no one else.

Ran.

She had been merciless in her attack just now, and He Chongtian was indeed quite capable.

Zhai Xinhou approached a pool of rope on the ground and squatted down to check: "This is it?"

Chen Xiangyin saw that there was still blood on the piece of rope he picked up: "The rope used to tie the pigs in the village. After killing them, I took the rope back."

Zhai Xinhou asked the two people next to him with his eyes.

One of the female police officers said: "This knot is indeed the method used to tie pigs back home."

It seemed that He Chongtian didn't want to see the police more than letting her have a drink.

The wooden window is wide open, and Agarwood can't help but guess: The crane is soaring into the sky, are you listening outside the window now? Or went to the roof again?

She stopped blocking him and quickly finished the search, finding nothing.

Zhai Xinhou came over again to make amends.

"Ms. Shen, we are doing business, and I have absolutely no intention of offending you. Personally, I sympathize with your experience and believe that you will not be the murderer."

Chen Xiangyin nodded. She didn't hate Zhai Xinhou, he was always smiling.

This smile is not the smile of a hidden knife, but the smile of a truly pure and upright person.

He can make people around him happy.

He may be smart, but he doesn't have much talent.

It's not like a crane soaring into the sky. Let him take a look and feel flustered as if he's not wearing any clothes.

Now, Shen Yueying's body has disappeared without any reason, and things seem to be getting more difficult.

"How could the body be stolen? No one is watching?"

Zhai Xinhou curled his lips and said: "The one who worked the night shift yesterday was a new intern. Someone pretended to be a family member. They somehow made a fool of themselves, signed the name and took it away."

Chen Xiangyin frowned. If the other party raised his head, he would definitely leave clues.

"No surveillance?"

"Yes, but I didn't take a clear picture. She was a young woman of medium height. She was wearing sunglasses when she went to pick up the body."

"Is there anything else strange about it?"

Zhai Xinhou thoughtfully said: "Our interns should not make such low-level mistakes. But last night, according to his own words, he was in a daze as if he was drunk. He has not been in good health all day today. I feel comfortable and have already asked for leave to go back and rest.”

Chen Xiangyin captured the key information and was feeling unwell.

"If anything happens later, I'll call you." Chen Xiang opened his mouth to greet the guests.

Zhai Xinhou waved and led the two of them out: "Miss Shen, don't give it away. Believe us, we will find your grandma's body."

Zhai Xinhou turned his head three times with each step, smiling and waving his hands. It was so festive.

Chen Xiangyin didn't smile back, wondering why Jiao's body was missing. It was someone else who pretended to claim it!

Just as the door closed downstairs, I suddenly felt a chill behind me.

His own shadow in front of him was shrouded by a taller shadow.

It seemed that He Chongtian was hiding outside the window and listening.
