Chapter 102 08 Can You Not Owe
After the break, the players gathered in the lobby. Since Lao Qian injured his ankle and was unable to walk, he was left alone at the mayor's house.
Lao Qian and his wife wanted to take care of Lao Qian but because of the dungeon clues, she followed her.
Wang Jingjing led the way, and everyone came to the puppet shop of the puppet master on the street. You could smell the smell of wood chips just outside the door, but the smell of wood chips was indescribably unpleasant.
The door was locked, and before Yu Chi kicked the door, the male high school student next to Wang Jingjing borrowed a card from Wang Jingjing, put it into the lock cylinder, and opened the door two or three times.
"Sister Jingjing~I didn't expect that the newcomer you brought would be quite good~" Yu Chi started to get angry again, and put his hand on the shoulder of the male high school student, "Little friend, what's your name?"
"Mo, Mo Xiaolei."
Yu Chi patted his head and was the first to walk into the house with the puppet in his arms.
Fu Xing watched his movements with a frown, complaining in his heart, how could everyone touch everyone's head, what a... casual man.
The small room instantly became crowded. Even with the lights turned on, the dimness of the room still looked uncomfortable.
There is almost no place to step down here, there are sawdust all over the floor, and various unfinished puppet limbs and heads.
Only the knives hung on the whole side of the back room can be regarded as neat.
Cloths of various colors are piled up in the corner like garbage, probably because they have been piled up for too long, and holes can be seen one after another on the cloth, which are traces of mice biting.
Going further inside, I saw some traces of life. The inside is very simple, a bed, a table, a very old kerosene lamp on the table, and the head of a puppet that has not yet been completed. There are also a few puppets' eyeballs here and there.
It is hard for everyone to believe that such an exquisite puppet was actually made in such a place.
After a while, they were arrested by security officers patrolling the street for breaking into houses.
No matter how they explained, no one believed them, and everything on them was seized, including the puppet.
Yu Chi directly revealed his identity, saying that they were the ace detectives of Country M, and they had received a letter asking for help and came to solve the problem.Of course, the mayor didn't know the letter in their hands, but sent them an invitation letter.The mayor of their identities can testify, but this letter, I don't know what method Yu Chi used to silence them.
In order to prove their identity, a player took out the incomplete letter, and it was in this way that the help letter in the player's hand was spliced together.
The letter was indeed a request for help. Jessica was the caller, and her friends died one after another. There were boys and girls. Before each child died, they would receive a puppet.
But almost every child in this town has his own puppet. It seems that the statement that a puppet is equal to death is not convincing.
Her father told her not to be afraid, he would get someone to investigate the matter himself.
Some people began to disappear slowly in this town, and she was very afraid that she would disappear too. She told her father again, and his father said that he would definitely find a way to find the bad guys.
But Jessica often heard strange noises in her father's room late at night.
As for this letter, Jessica made up her mind to write it after her best friend Luna pulled the accident.
Jessica calls out to the Ace Detectives as she fears death will befall her.
Sure enough, the mayor had a problem.
Fu Xing admired Yu Mingzhi's reasoning ability very much. When the mayor Howard and Jessica were not mentioned in the two notes, it was more about puppets, but the facts proved that Yu Mingzhi's direction was accurate.
With the help of security personnel, the players found the residence of the puppet master, and they politely knocked on the door.
Sure enough, it was an elderly grandfather with inconvenient legs and feet.
"Hello, we have something to ask you about the puppet." Yu Chi said as he handed the puppet in his arms, and he opened the puppet's mouth. Her teeth were still covered with shredded meat and blood.
The old man did not speak, and moved the wheelchair backwards, motioning for them to enter.
Yu Mingzhi was still the first to go in, followed by Fu Xing, and finally followed by Ji Zhihe.
The room is still dim, and the smell of sawdust is very strong. It seems that it has been working with wood all year round, and the smell of wood has permeated the whole house.
The old man put the puppet in red clothes on his lap. Even in summer, the old man still had a thick blanket on his lap.
Yu Mingzhi looked around the house, and finally sat on the sofa opposite the old man.
"Sir, have you heard about the missing children in this town? It is said that they will receive your puppets before they have an accident. Of course, I am not questioning you. I want to hear what you say about this matter." Yu Ming It seems to be prepared.
"The wood here is camphor wood, which has a strong smell. He must be trying to cover up some smell." Mo Xiaolei's voice was very low.
Ji Zhihe frowned: "How do you know?"
"Hehe, Momo is a master of science ~ knows a lot."
Fu Xing was a little distracted when he heard this, and so was Yu Chi, the "master of science". Yu Chi grabbed him and told him the difficult math problems back then, and then Yu Chi left. Mathematics grades, which tended to improve, returned to the starting point.
Yu Chi looked at Dumb Fu Xing, and poked him secretly, "What's the matter? Does it smell bad?"
Fu Xing shook his head and replied, "No."
Yu Mingzhi took out the mask from his pocket and put it on his face, "I know you are delicate, so I prepared it earlier."
"I'm so cute to you, sir, can you stop talking..." Fu Xing still wanted to scold, but the other party whispered in his ear, "It's better to smell less camphor wood, and be careful to poison you to death."
"..."
Immediately afterwards, Wang Jingjing also interjected: "As far as I know, ten years ago, your granddaughter Suzanne died in a fire on her ninth birthday, and your leg was burned at that time, and the place where it happened It was this house. I heard that the fire was so big that Mr. Mayor came to bring people to put out the fire himself. However, the suspect...has not been found yet."
Wang Jingjing squinted her eyes, waiting for the old man's answer. In fact, the mayor was mentioned the most times in Wang Jingjing's note, so she started collecting information around the mayor from the beginning.
Unexpectedly, I followed the clues and discovered the case of the fire that year.
It's just that there is too little information about the fire that year. Many firefighters either moved away or died accidentally while fighting the fire.
The more this is the more suspicious.
There are not many people who can deliberately conceal this kind of incident, so there must be something tricky about this incident, otherwise Wang Jingjing would not have asked the victim himself.
"My mind is not normal. I actually set the fire... the mayor helped me suppress it..."
After all, he took out the doctor's certificate from under the heavy blanket.
