The Exorcist

As Ruan Zhan said, Zhang Xue did not die.

When the rescuers arrived, they found that what was fatal was Zhang Xue's severed arm, which had been torn off by "people" including the flesh and bones, which could not be done by manpower. However, a strange spell was found on the broken arm that should have killed her in time, which allowed her to stop the bleeding in time and gave her a chance to survive. A famous onmyoji invited by Zhang Xue's father Recognized that it was a hemostatic spell commonly used in the art world.

Through this incident, the police can determine that there was a warlock staying in this building at that time. In view of the weirdness and incomprehension of previous cases, and this is the only time that there is evidence that other people were present, the police put this imaginary warlock identified as the number one suspect in this series of homicides. But Zhang Xue's father felt grief, indignation and heartache when he saw his daughter's tragic situation. Based on this clue, he believed that there must be an evil and perverted monk who killed the female college student. Not only did he use his wealth to exert great pressure on the police and the school, Behind the scenes, he also spent a lot of money to invite all the onmyojis and witches and gods possessed by immortals to hunt down and kill this "scum" in the art world. Ruan Zhan was almost described as a blue-faced, long-toothed, lecherous, wretched, weird, perverted, and sinister monster. As for his kind behavior of saving people, he was also said to be moody, and the girl's rescue was entirely a matter of his own luck.

Moreover, although the girl is not dead and her appearance is not completely destroyed, she is crazy! Crazy to know nothing, afraid of everything, especially the mirror!

A hero who saves lives is regarded as a public enemy of the whole people, and his well-intentioned actions are so thoroughly wronged that Xiao Xia is so angry that he almost foams at the mouth, and he is very unwilling for Ruan Zhan. But the person involved didn't care at all, and didn't care about his current situation like a mouse crossing the street. He still had his gentle smile on his face, and was busy at the bar calmly and calmly. As for Xiao Xia, she was sitting by the bar with her hands on her chin, staring at the handsome boss with her eyes motionless, feeling aggrieved in her heart. But in the eyes of others, it seems to be drooling at Ruan Zhan. Half an hour later, even Ruan Zhan, who never cared about anything, felt extremely uncomfortable.

"Can you stop staring at me?"

"No." Xiao Xia flatly refused, lying on the table and looking up at Ruan Zhan. If it wasn't for the fear of exposing Ruan Zhan's secrets, and fearing that she wouldn't be able to tell after getting involved in this matter, she really wanted to make a news release to clarify Ruan Zhan's innocence. "I am the most wronged person!"

"Well, it's nothing." He didn't care about it at all, anyway, he was sure that no one would come to him with suspicion. He doesn't need anyone to prove who he is, and he's not afraid of anyone's speculation, but Xiao Xia's empathy made him feel very warm.

"But they are too convenient, just find someone and plant everything on him!"

"You can't blame them. If you have the only clue, you have to track it down. Besides, it's logical. It's common sense."

"Which side are you on? Please state your position!" Xiao Xia was furious, "I'm talking for you!"

"Shh—keep your voice down." Ruan Zhan stopped Xiao Xia, not wanting anyone to notice them, but found that they were being noticed all the time, so he moved closer to her face, hoping instead that no one could hear their conversation, but His behavior is more like whispering between lovers. "You don't want everyone to know that I am the 'perverted killer'!"

Xiao Xia lay down on the table in frustration.

"You just have to be careful not to be found out that you are an 'accomplice'. Otherwise, let alone the police arrest you to sit on the tiger bench first, even Zhang Xue's father will secretly kill you."

"Extorting a confession by torture is against the law. Maybe those unqualified policemen in remote areas will do this kind of behavior, but it won't be too obvious in such a big city." Xiao Xia didn't care, "I hope there will be such things, when the lawyer The association will make decisions for me, and I will receive a large amount of state compensation, so that I will only be left with money for the rest of my life. However, Rich Zhang may persecute me, but no one will know where I was there that night."

"That's all right. How's that with your contractor?"

"I'll look for her tomorrow to see if she'll give me away, but I need your buddy to help me. I have to ask them to ask her out so that I can beat the mountain."

"Is there a direction of attack?"

"Of course, I don't fight unprepared." Xiao Xia said: "You said that the person who summoned Bloody Mary must have time to be alone at the beginning of the semester, and from the beginning of the school to the present, all the students in the school who have closed conditions at night The venue, only the night when the school basketball team played, has the conditions to be crowded. As long as I find my suspect and ask about the details of the game that day, I can know from those two basketball boys whether she is at the scene."

In fact, the police decided that this was a serial murder case, and they agreed, but the murderer was not an ordinary human being. And the most critical one, the contractor, has greatly narrowed the scope of the search through Xiao Xia and Ruan Zhan's analysis.

First of all, she must know these four victims. For the first victim, Qian Li, she is the object of Qian Li's bet; the second victim has the least relevant information, but she also has to observe the other party the only witness in the third murder was Tao Xiaochun, the girl who was supposed to go back to the dormitory with the victim; the most obvious thing about Zhang Xue's case is that it is certain that the contractor lives in the dormitory of Building 7 The students in the middle school, because from the power outage to the accident, Xiao Xia has never seen anyone coming in and out, so only the students living inside have the opportunity to turn off the switch in the dark. And no matter what the inside story of Zhang Xue and Ni Yang's headless date is, at least she has to trick Zhang Xue to keep looking at herself, otherwise the conditions for the mirror witch to appear will not be met, which can only be done by getting close to Zhang Xue.

Each clue is not very clear individually, but if you think about it together, you will find that all the information points to the witness in the third case-Tao Xiaochun.

On the surface, Tao Xiaochun is one of the most beautiful people in T University. She is beautiful, comes from a scholarly family, has good homework, and is enthusiastic about social activities. People can't believe that she is a perpetrator. But she and Zhang Xue live in the same dormitory building, and they usually have a good relationship; she is a witness to the murder in the main building, and all the side plots are described by her; she and the second victim are classmates, and they often go in and out together; The most important thing is that with the help of Liu Tie and Ni Yang, one of the girls who share the dorm with Qian Li has been contacted, and she is also Qian Li's only friend. She confirmed that Tao Xiaochun also has a good impression of Liu Tie to a certain extent, because Qian Li had a love affair with Liu Tie at the end of last semester, so her relationship with Qian Li was very bad, and the person who bet with Qian Li was precisely her.

So this contractor, they locked Tao Xiaochun.

"Speaking of which, why don't you go and have a look. Maybe there's something black on her face, so it won't save me from playing tricks?" Xiao Xia asked.

"She is making a contract, not being possessed by a ghost. My ability is not enough to judge even this."

"I think you are lazy." Xiao Xia falsely accused, "Fortunately, nothing happened today. I heard that the principal has ordered to tear down all the things that can shine on people in order not to kill anyone. It’s possible to look in the mirror at night, and quite a few students are crammed into one place.”

"That's fine, if you can temporarily prevent casualties, I'm afraid that it will be impossible to prevent, and it won't help."
