Elder Furukawa didn't care at all whether the two fires were murders. He only cared whether the two cases were related to the theft of the "Seven Evil Blood Refining Magic" scroll.
After being reminded by Elder Haoran last time, Elder Furukawa did not look for those elusive and elusive clues to the crime. He went straight to the topic and activated the true spirit energy throughout his body to see if there was any evil energy in the ruins.
The results of Elder Furukawa's investigation made him very surprised and uneasy. There was actually some evil spirit remaining on the ruins. He speculated that the reason why there was so little evil spirit here was that the murderer, in order to hide the motive of the murder, deliberately sealed his own evil spirit to prevent it from leaking out and making people aware of it. However, the evil spirit in his body was too high. He was too strong to win, so he left such a residual evil spirit at the scene.
After about a stick of incense, the four elders gathered in the courtyard of the fire scene as agreed in advance to share what they had learned from the investigation of the scene.
Elder Furukawa asked: "I wonder if you elders have discovered anything?"
Elder Cang Hui said: "I didn't find anything. Could it be that these two fires were just accidents?"
Elder Chifeng said: "I'm sure that the two families who were buried in the fire were murdered. The fire should have been set by the murderer to destroy the bodies and eliminate traces."
Elder Haoran asked: "I don't know why the elder is so sure. These two murders were carefully planned and carried out by someone. Can you give me some advice?"
Elder Chifeng said: "I inferred it from three doubtful points at the scene..."
Elder Cang Hui said: "What! There are three doubts, why didn't I find any of them? Are you just bragging?"
Elder Chifeng joked: "Are you kidding or not? The elders will make their own judgment after hearing this. As for the first doubt, the minimum population of these two families is three people. When the fire broke out, it was impossible that no one would notice it. Even if it was smoke, It will also wake them up, and there will be no such strange phenomenon where no one escapes from the fire.
The second doubt, haven’t you discovered it? Both families died in the living rooms of their respective homes. What made them gather together and not escape in the face of the deadly fire? I think there is only one possibility. The murderer gathered them together, and this murderer was very cruel, leaving them no chance to escape or calling for help. "
Elder Furukawa said: "How do you know they didn't call for help? You were not at the scene, and I didn't see anyone you inquired about."
"This is my speculation. Let Elder Cang Hui tell us the specific evidence!"
Elder Cang Hui pointed to his nose and said, "Why me?"
"I was going to inquire among the crowd, but I saw you having a heated fight with the people who were watching. I couldn't bear to disturb you, so I didn't go there. Please tell us the information you gathered."
"You're afraid of disturbing me. I think you're clearly just cheating and enjoying the benefits."
Elder Haoran smiled and said, "Elder, please share with us the information you have found out!"
Elder Cang Hui said: "Yes, it is indeed as Elder Chifeng said. I specifically asked the neighbors of these two families if they heard the two families calling for help last night. Their neighbors answered me very definitely that they did not They did not hear the cries for help from the two victims. They were awakened by the raging fire. When they rushed to put out the fire, the fire was already burning fiercely. They could only watch the fire. Burn everything the two families have."
Elder Furukawa said: "It seems that these two families were indeed murdered."
Elder Cang Hui said: "Elder Chifeng, didn't you say there are three doubts? What is the other doubt?"
Elder Chifeng said: "What do you think the body of a person who was burned alive should look like?"
Elder Cang Hui replied without hesitation: "Of course he curled up into a ball. Do you even need to ask?"
"But have you noticed? All the corpses here are lying straight on the spot, without any signs of struggle."
Elder Furukawa said: "From what you said, it seems to be the same thing, but how do you know they haven't struggled?"
"Corpse oil, in the entire hall, only the body of the deceased has corpse oil remaining, but it is not found in other places at all."
Elder Haoran said: "Yes, Elder Chifeng's analysis is really insightful. What was the reason that prevented the deceased from being burned into a ball by the blazing hunting fire?"
Elder Chifeng said: "There is only one reason, and that is that the deceased was killed before the fire burned."
After hearing the elders’ wonderful analysis, General Chi Li on the side did not forget to add a few words, “I’m just saying, how can there be such a coincidence in the world? Two, two, and three after a few days, for no reason. When a fire breaks out, all the people in every family will be burned to death in their homes.”
Elder Cang Hui said: "General Chi Li is right. Too many coincidences come together and it becomes a premeditated thing."
Elder Furukawa said: "Who did these two families offend? What hatred did they have against them? Why did they brutally kill their entire family?"
Elder Cang Hui said: "I asked their neighbors. These two families are both plasterers. They are well-known in Jiuli City. They are quite kind people and never quarrel with others. As for why they do this. I don't know if they encountered such a murderous disaster, maybe the two of them were unlucky and encountered some perverted person or a murderous maniac."
Elder Haoran said: "There are some things in this world that cannot be planned, right? This is fate. This is what their fate is, and they cannot escape this disaster."
Elder Chifeng asked Elder Haoran, "Just now I saw Elder Haoran secretly using his spiritual power on top of the ruins. I must have made some important discovery, right?"
Elder Haoran said: "I connected the three recent murder cases. From the time the murderer entered the house, gathered all the people into the hall, killed them, and then burned all the crimes, no one even made a sound during this period. When the voice called for help, I boldly guessed whether this was the work of some monster or ghost? So I used my microscopic power to see if there was any evil spirit here."
Elder Cang Hui asked urgently: "Can the elder detect the existence of evil spirit here?"
Elder Haoran shook his head and said, "I didn't notice any evil spirit here."
Elder Furukawa said: "This shows that these two murders were not caused by monsters."
Elder Haoran continued: "But I found something else here."
Elder Chifeng said: "Looking at the elder's appearance, it should be something that can surprise us..."
Elder Cang Hui interrupted: "What on earth is this? Elder Haoran, please stop trying to trick us here. I'm warning you, don't give us any more Zen words. Every time I chat with you, I feel like It was like rushing for an exam, it was so nerve-wracking.”
Elder Haoran smiled and said: "This time it is very clear, you don't have to worry anymore..."
When Elder Guhe heard what Elder Haoran said, he knew that Elder Haoran wanted to tell the other two elders about the evil spirit. Elder Gu He kept winking at Elder Haoran to stop him from telling this evil thing.
But no matter how Elder Furukawa kept silent to Elder Haoran, Elder Haoran just pretended not to see it. He continued: "I found a residual evil spirit here."
Elder Chifeng was shocked when he heard this. Said: "What! Did you find the evil spirit here?"
When Elder Guhe heard Elder Chifeng's shocked words, his expression changed with shock and he asked, "How come Elder Chifeng knows what this evil spirit is?"
"Yes, I also heard the immortal master mention this evil spirit accidentally, as if it is something extremely sinister and evil, and people who cultivate demons often collect this evil thing to improve their cultivation. That’s all I know.”
Elder Cang Hui heard these few sentences describing the evil spirit indifferently, making him half-understanding. It made him feel itchy and uncomfortable in his heart. He broke the casserole and asked Elder Furukawa to get to the bottom of it. He said: "As you are older, you must know what this evil spirit is. Please explain it to us so that we can learn more about it." Learn something about this murderer and arsonist so we can bring him to justice."
