After staring at the petals for a while, Wen Youzhi's eyes burst out with an eerie coolness, and then he bent down and picked the box out of the trash can.
Taking out the gift box, Wen Youzhi didn't wipe away the bright red liquid flowing out from the edge, just held it in his hand and walked back.
The old man selling sugar water came very early to take a seat. When he saw what was in Wen Youzhi's hand, he was stunned for a moment and said with a smile.
"This box is dirty. There must be red ink on it. Why did you pick this thing out of the trash can? What should you do if you take it back to the flower shop and scare Miss Yu?"
Wen Youzhi lazily raised his eyes to look at the candy stall that Yu Shu often frequented, "Didn't they say it was red ink? How could it scare her?"
After saying this, Wen Youzhi had no intention of chatting with the old man and went straight back to the flower shop. The old man was left looking at his back expressionlessly with a pair of eyes that were not as cloudy as ordinary old people.
After eating breakfast, Yu Shu was sent to the flower shop by Pei Shuyan.
"I'll take leave in the afternoon, and I'll make lunch when I get back." Pei Shuyan handed a cup of hot milk to Yu Shu.
Yu Shu nodded. The two of them were wearing the same color today, and they looked particularly good together.
Wen Youzhi looked there, and his eyes darkened slightly when he saw that Pei Shuyan seemed to be unable to finish his words.
He picked up the box placed in the corner, walked up to the two of them, and spoke to Yu Shu as if he was frightened.
"Sister, this is the box that someone left at the door this morning. As soon as I picked it up, blood started to flow. There is still this thing in it. Should we call the police?"
Only last night did she realize that someone had entered her home. When she saw the gift box, which was covered in a lot of blood, and she could smell the smell of blood when she got closer, Yu Shu's eyelids twitched twice.
Before Yu Shu could make a move, Pei Shuyan took the gift box first.
The gift box was in a black and white color scheme that didn't look right, and the thing tied on it was a rope made of money paper. When you opened it, you could see the white roses and fingers tied with ribbons inside, which made people even more panicked.
Two things came into view, and Yu Shu's face turned pale for a moment. Pei Shuyan hurriedly closed the box and said in a deep voice.
"Call the police!"
A few minutes later, two police officers came to the flower shop, which temporarily closed.
The police officers who came were a man and a woman. The man had a cold and serious face, a high nose, and clear outlines. The badge he wore shone coldly under the light. He looked like a sensible and serious person.
The girl next to him is much smaller and doesn't have much expression on her face, but her moving eyes show her lively nature.
Wen Youzhi and Pei Shuyan stepped forward to tell them about the gift box. Pei Shuyan also told them about someone entering the house, emphasizing that the person also left a white rose.
"You mean, that person went to Miss Yu's house the night before yesterday and left this gift box with a severed finger and a white rose at the door of the flower shop this morning?" Shen Xu's voice was as cold and hard as the badge on his chest. No ups and downs at all.
While they were talking, An Yuan next to him quickly memorized this information, suspecting that this person was the murderer who caused several murders. After all, the victims had such gift boxes left in their homes.
But she also wondered why if it was that person, he would let Yu Shu go. Those who were targeted before were all killed without exception.
Thinking of this, An Yuan's eyes drifted towards Yu Shu, who was deliberately protected behind them.
Yu Shu was wearing a mask on her face at this time, which covered her face, but her eyebrows and eyes were delicate and her figure was slender and beautiful. She could tell that she was a beauty.
While An Yuan was observing Yu Shu, Pei Shuyan moved half a step to the right, just enough to completely block the people behind him.
"I'm not sure if they are the same person, but both of them left white roses before leaving. It may have some special meaning. The police officer can follow this clue to investigate."
