About ten minutes later, Li Changqing and Monk Huaiyue finished reading the news about a young girl who was raped and killed by the immortal attendant.
That news was stained with a little blood.
Because Monk Huaiyue had just wrapped the blood-stained paper crane in his hand with this newspaper, naturally part of the blood on the paper crane was stained on the newspaper.
But compared to the faint blood stains, the content of the news itself makes people feel more bloody.
Li Changqing suddenly looked up, and at this moment her jade face had turned as white as ice and snow.
"You just said that the cause of death of several teenagers was in this news. What does that mean?"
Li Changqing asked so coldly.
The immortal attendant sighed and said:
"It turned out that I was responsible for the case of the murder of a young girl. The case was not difficult to solve. I quickly found the murderer. There were four people in total, and now three of them are dead!"
The bodies of Li Changqing and Monk Huaiyue were shocked.
They all understood the meaning of the Immortal Waiter's words.
And even if both of them are practitioners in the Nascent Soul Realm, it is difficult to control their emotions at this moment.
And the Immortal Attendant said quietly again at this time:
"Actually, the news in the newspaper was extremely restrained. I have seen the scene, and I can only say that the situation at the scene was ten times more horrific than what was depicted in the newspaper."
"It's just that the families of these young people have strong backgrounds, so the case was eventually suppressed. For example, I received a check for two thousand silver dollars."
A self-deprecating smile appeared on the face of the Immortal Waiter.
Yes, when their deputy director of the patrol department placed the check on his desk, he accepted the check and chose to shut up.
However, after the deputy director walked out of his office, the immortal servant tore up the check.
He chose to shut up, not because he was greedy for money, but because the other party's power was too great for him to fight against.
Although he is a servant of the Seven Immortals Alliance, he is also very aware of the rules of the Seven Immortals Alliance and will not interfere in such mortal affairs at all.
There were even several times when he had the urge to kill those beasts with a pistol. Just thinking that he would receive two generous pensions in a few years, and thinking about his wife, children, and children at home, he finally chose A compromise.
Until this morning, when he saw the bodies of these three teenagers, he finally controlled his urge to look up to the sky and laugh.
It turns out that there are some different kinds of immortals in this world.
There was silence in the room.
"The bodies of the three teenagers who died today, in addition to a paper crane, also had a newspaper like this beside them."
"The reason why they were killed is already clear."
Then the Immortal Waiter broke the silence in the room and said this.
Li Changqing and Monk Huaiyue looked at each other, and Monk Huaiyue slowly said:
"It seems that a certain practitioner knew about this and took action secretly."
"Good kill!"
Li Changqing glanced at the corpse of the young man with the same surname as her on the bed with some disgust.
This morning, after she learned that three teenagers were killed by a cultivator, the Zhaodan Sword on her back had been clanging continuously. At this moment, the trembling of the sword's body finally stopped.
Because it's not worth it.
But immediately after, Li Changqing said something again.
"But no matter what the reason is, heaven's rules cannot be violated. So we still have to find this person!"
"Senior Sister Li is right. Such people can do good or evil. Shencheng does not allow such practitioners to exist."
Monk Huaiyue also nodded.
Li Changqing turned to look at the immortal attendant and asked:
"May I have your name?"
"I'm Ye Fan, Ye Ye, ordinary Fan."
The immortal attendant replied somewhat flattered.
"Ye Fan, you just said that there were four murderers in total who killed the girl. So where is the last murderer?"
Then Li Changqing asked another question.
The moon-bearing monk next to him suddenly lit up.
By the way, one of the four murderers has not been killed, and judging from the methods of this unknown practitioner, it is impossible to let the last murderer go.
At that time, as long as he ambush the last murderer, he will naturally be able to catch the practitioner.
Then at this moment, Immortal Immortal Ye Fan had a strange look on his face.
"I don't know who the fourth murderer is either."
He said this to Li Changqing and Monk Huaiyue.
…
At 4:30 in the afternoon, Shu Guan got into the car sent by Du Wenqiang to pick him up.
The person who drove to pick him up was Du Wenqiang's personal bodyguard named Xiaojian. He was driving Du Wenqiang's own car, a specially customized and extremely luxurious Catalak.
The young man, who was as strong as a leopard and had a calm temperament, helped him open the back door of the car, but he didn't have many flattering words. He was completely different from the big man in black who often came here.
After Shu Guan got into the car, the young man closed the rear seat's fender and the car started to drive forward.
Shu Guan sat silently in the luxurious carriage. He was not interested in talking much today.
When he returned to the horse racing stable in the early morning, he felt a little ashamed when he met the little girl's expectant eyes.
Because before leaving, he promised to kill all her murderers last night, but in the end he only killed three, and the most important murderer was not even identified.
Then Shu Guan made another divination in the attic. The young man had been here, done some beastly things, and was deeply involved with Wang Ru. This was easy to predict in the hexagram path.
But the result is still disappointing, and the secret of the hexagram has been hidden.
Of course, Shu Guan was not surprised. Even the memory in Li Tiansheng's mind had been wiped out. It was normal for the secret to be concealed.
Shu Guan could only promise the little girl to comfort him that he would definitely help him find the last murderer.
And this matter is not completely hopeless now.
Because Shu Guan at least knew what that young man looked like.
While sitting in the car heading to Du Wenqiang's house, Shu Guan wondered if he had asked Yang Ruijun to draw a portrait of the young man for him, just like when he was looking for Yuan Yingzi, and then asked Du Wenqiang to find this person.
It can't be harder to find than Minamoto Sakurako.
Because that young man would hang out with a group of dandy boys, and he should have often been seen in Shanghai in the past. With Du Wenqiang's power in Shanghai, he could always find people who had seen that young man.
With some calculations in his mind, Shu Guan's frown relaxed a little and he turned to look at the scenery outside the window.
At this time, the car drove into the concession of Falan Kingdom and drove onto Jiangbin Avenue. It passed by the buildings on the riverside with different styles, but each one could be called a work of art.
Of course, he also drove past the door of Liang Yuandong’s house, which Shuguan had visited last night.
Then Shu Guan's eyes suddenly narrowed slightly.
It was quiet outside the gate of Liang Yuandong's house. Except for a few cars parked, there were no people around.
There were no swarms of police or reporters with cameras.
It was as if what happened early this morning had never happened at all.
Zhu Guan was not too surprised by this scene.
It seems that the Liang family is preparing to suppress the death of Liang Yuandong.
However, what made Shu Guan's expression slightly change at this time was not because of this, but when Du Wenqiang's car passed by the Liang's gate, Shu Guan happened to see a person walking out of the Liang's gate.
He was a young man wearing a suit. He looked a little thin, with a fair and delicate face, and a strong bookish air about him.
...Academic disciples...
Although this young man did not wear the wide-sleeved robes worn by the academy, the unique temperament of the academy disciples could not be concealed by outer clothing.
The most important thing is that the bookish young man is a practitioner.
It's just that Shu couldn't tell the depth of the other person's cultivation. There were fluctuations in spiritual power on the young man's body, but it wasn't strong, surrounding him like a long trickle.
But...it doesn't look like the first time we met, nor does it look like fetal movement.
Shu Guan, who was sitting in the car, took a deep look at the young man who walked out of the Liang family gate.
The young man seemed to be aware of it immediately and looked up.
Shu Guan had already withdrawn his head from the car window and lay back on the comfortable seat.
The young man only saw an extremely luxurious black car passing not far in front of him.
The young man frowned in confusion.
...Shencheng Seven Immortals Alliance's response was pretty quick...
And Shu Guan, who was lying back on the comfortable sofa seat, thought so.
Shu Guan had heard Master Li Zhixia introduce the situation of the Seven Immortals Alliance in Shanghai before. That time it was because the Fuhua Warehouse was ambushed. After the Black Dragon Society incident, they discovered a huge smuggling half-demon under the Fuhua Warehouse. base.
The Fuhua Ocean Trading Company to which Fuhua Warehouse belongs is headquartered in Shanghai, so Li Zhixia specifically contacted the Shanghai Seven Immortals League and asked them to investigate the situation of the Fuhua Ocean Trading Company.
Li Zhixia did not tell Shu Guan about the follow-up of this matter. It seems that the Seven Immortals Alliance here did not investigate any useful information, and finally let it go.
However, Li Zhixia had introduced the special situation of Shencheng Seven Immortals Alliance to the disciples at that time, so Shu Guan reacted so quickly to Shencheng Seven Immortals Alliance and killed someone early in the morning. Now the disciples of Seven Immortals Alliance have appeared at the scene. A little surprised.
However, he had already prepared himself to be noticed by the Seven Immortals Alliance by killing the three young men with a practitioner's method early this morning.
But now, for practitioners, he is equivalent to a completely invisible person to a certain extent, so Shu Guan is not too worried at this time.
...However, should I check that Fuhua Ocean Company in person if I have the chance?
Shu Guande had such an idea in his mind.
At this time, the black car slowly stopped.
"Mr. Shu, we're here."
The sound of small arrows came from the front of the car.
Shu Guan opened the car door and walked out, and then he saw the Du Mansion, which is famous in the Magic City.
This is a building composed of two connected primary and secondary buildings. One building is three stories high and the other is two stories high. It occupies a large area and is in an L shape. It is located on the edge of the river. Standing on the upper floor, you can Enjoy the beautiful view of the river.
The building is a combination of Dahua and Western styles. The main part of the building is Western style, but the overhangs on the roof, the reliefs on the walls, and the handrails of the marble fence are all full of Dahua style. The overall building presents a gray tone, with a kind of Solemn yet luxurious.
This building was specially built by Du Wenqiang after he became successful in Shanghai. It is said that he spent millions of silver dollars. The decoration inside was extremely luxurious and it also had the most modern facilities at the time.
For example, the nanmu carved beam directly above the hall is worth more than half a million silver dollars and was given to Du Wenqiang by Huang Jinyong, another road boss in Shanghai.
In addition, the entire Du Mansion is equipped with a central heating and cooling system. No matter it is hot or cold, you can feel as comfortable as spring in the house. This is the latest technological product that few people in the Western Continent can enjoy.
Therefore, when the Du Mansion was completed, it was a sensation throughout Shanghai. Some people commented that living in the Du Mansion would not be more enjoyable even for an emperor.
Of course, Shu Guan had heard these rumors, so after getting off the car, he couldn't help but look up curiously at the Du Mansion, thinking that this should be the top mansion of this era.
At this time, there were many vehicles parked outside the magnificent carved iron gate of Du Mansion, and one after another, men and women in rich clothes walked into the iron gate.
When the black car stopped outside the iron gate, there happened to be a fat middle-aged man wearing a blue silk camel velvet robe, a white Western hat on his head, and holding a soft cane cane. The middle-aged man was inevitably startled when he saw the black car stopped when he walked into the door under the guidance of a servant of Du Fu.
Because he knew that this was Du Wenqiang's car, he couldn't help but think about the banquet at his house today. Why did Mr. Du come back just now?
This is not like the style of Mr. Du who strictly adheres to ancient etiquette.
But doubts remained doubts, but the fat middle-aged man immediately put on a flattering smile on his face and strode towards the black car.
He can be regarded as someone who can say a few words in front of Du Wenqiang. If Mr. Du can walk in the door together at this moment, his face will be great tonight.
But when he was still two or three meters away from the black car, the door behind the black car opened and a young man got out of the car. It was obvious that this young man was the only one in the back seat of the car. people.
The middle-aged fat man suddenly stopped and stood there blankly.
what happened?
I heard that Mr. Du loves this car very much and would never let it be used by others. So what kind of identity does this young man have that allows Mr. Du to use his own car to pick him up?
The middle-aged fat man quickly looked carefully at the young man who got off the car.
When he went out this afternoon, because of what happened in the early morning, Shu Guan didn't have much thought to take care of himself. He just wore an ordinary long gown and black cloth shoes that he usually wears when sitting in the restaurant.
He was basically dressed like this when he was in the horse racing hall. After all, he was a fortune teller and a feng shui practitioner, so if his clothing style was too Western, it would not look like him.
It was just that the way he was dressed now caught the eyes of the fat middle-aged man, which made him a little confused.
Looking at this outfit, he really doesn't look like a young master from a famous family, nor does he look like someone with a prominent background.
Looking at this young man's appearance, he looks very ordinary and unfamiliar.
Based on this fat middle-aged man's experience in Shanghai's upper class society, he had more or less met a few young people who were high enough in status for Mr. Du to arrange for him to pick them up in his own car, and he had to know something about them. Hear.
He was certain that there was no such person among them.
So who is this person?
When the middle-aged fat man was confused, Xiaojian also got out of the car and respectfully gestured to Shuguan, asking him to come in with him.
When he saw Xiaojian getting out of the car, the middle-aged fat man's surprise suddenly became stronger, from surprise to shock.
Mr. Du actually sent this confidant who was almost always with him to pick him up, so he really valued this young man very much.
At this time, Shu Guan walked past the middle-aged fat man and inevitably glanced curiously at the middle-aged fat man who was just standing there, not knowing what he was doing.
The fat middle-aged man immediately gave Shuguan a humble and flattering smile.
Although I don’t know who this young man is, if Mr. Du can arrange his own bodyguards and a car to pick him up, there is nothing wrong with leaving a good impression on him first.
Seeing the middle-aged fat man smiling at him so politely, Shu Guan naturally nodded and smiled at him, and then walked through the door.
At this time, Xiaojian also walked past the middle-aged fat man, glanced at the middle-aged fat man, and said something strange:
"Master An, why don't you go in?"
The middle-aged fat man known as Mr. An was quite familiar with Xiaojian in the past. At this time, he quickly grabbed Xiaojian and asked in a low voice:
"This person just now was..."
"Master Du invited a distinguished guest. By the way, today's dinner is actually mainly held for this distinguished guest."
"Master An, please go in quickly!"
Xiaojian said a few words in a hurry, then followed Shu Guan into the gate of Du Mansion.
Du Wenqiang held a dinner just for this young man?
Xiaojian's answer made Master An's body tremble a few times, and he stood frozen in place for a moment.
Behind the gate of Du Mansion is a green lawn, which is very neatly maintained. There is a path in the center of the lawn, and at the end of the path is the main building of Du Mansion.
At this moment, Du Wenqiang was standing on the doorstep of the two-story building, welcoming the guests who came to the banquet.
Originally, given his status in Shanghai, there was no need to stand here in person to welcome guests unless a real big shot arrived.
It's just that although Du Wenqiang was born in the market, after he became successful, he strictly abided by etiquette. No matter what the other person's status was, as long as you were not against him, he always maintained a kind and cordial attitude towards everyone.
Next to Du Wenqiang, there stood a beautiful woman with unparalleled elegance, greeting the guests who entered the door together with Du Wenqiang.
The two of them were standing at the door with several distinguished guests, smiling and chatting.
When Shu Guan walked into the iron gate, the beautiful woman with almost impeccable temperament and appearance happened to look over here, and then a trace of suspicion flashed in her eyes.
She didn't know the young man.
And she knew almost all the guests who came today.
So the woman gently pulled Du Wenqiang's sleeve and pointed towards the door.
Du Wenqiang looked back and laughed immediately.
"Ling Hui, Mr. Shu is here."
Du Wenqiang said this to the woman, then immediately walked down the steps and personally greeted the young man who had just entered the door.
At this moment, the gorgeous woman was stunned.
The guests who had just been chatting with them were stunned.
The guests in the hall who happened to see this scene were suddenly stunned.
Everyone stared blankly as Du Wenqiang, who had bad legs and feet, strode across the lawn and met the young man in a long gown.
