Star Gate

Loud!

Through the loudspeaker of the communicator, wandering on the dark street.

Li Hao, who was still a little scared at first, was suddenly relieved at this moment, and said softly with a respectful voice; "Teacher, I don't have that idea yet."

"Then you fucked up the communication!"

On the other side of the communication, there was a somewhat annoyed voice.

"Teacher, I have been investigating the case of Zhang Yuan's self-immolation for a year, and I have found out something different. Zhang Yuan...maybe his death was not accidental!"

"Ok?"

In the darkness, Li Hao's face was calm, but there was a hint of embarrassment in it, "I checked, and it wasn't just Zhang Yuan who set himself on fire in Yincheng these years, but several people. Although they didn't seem to be related, there was something vaguely related. , I haven’t found any specific clues yet.”

Over there, it suddenly became quiet.

Li Hao has already walked to the door of Zhang Yuan's old house at this moment, looking at the somewhat broken seal, he said softly: "I am in Zhang Yuan's hometown now, I want to check to see if there are any other clues that prove that Zhang Yuan was murdered , not by accident."

"Li Hao!"

From the communication side, the old man's heavy voice came: "I also know about Zhang Yuan's matter. According to your statement, if it is murder, then don't go there rashly, and be careful of accidents!"

After finishing speaking, he shouted loudly again: "You wait there for a while, I will say hello to the inspection department and the ancient courtyard, if you need help, someone will come right away!"

At this moment, Yuan Shuo who was opposite seemed to understand something.

There is no need for Li Hao to say more.

When Li Hao called the newsletter and told him that he found Zhang Yuan not by accident, but that he might have died of murder, and that he was at Zhang Yuan's old house, Yuan Shuo instantly understood Li Hao's meaning.

May be dangerous!

Li Hao, at this moment, we need some sufficient deterrent force to deter some hidden crises that may exist in the dark.

There is no need for Yuan Shuo to do or say anything.

It is enough to let Yuan Shuo know that he, Li Hao, is here now and is investigating Zhang Yuan's case.

As long as he is paying attention to a big boss in Yincheng ancient courtyard, that's enough.

No one dared to move easily.

Otherwise, the death of Li Hao may arouse the anger of the old man of the ancient courtyard and lead to more troublesome things.

It was rumored that Li Hao and Yuan Shuo had a falling out before.

As it turns out, no.

On this night, Yuan Shuo's voice echoed far away in the empty and silent street. If someone had been paying attention to this place, they would definitely be able to hear Yuan Shuo's words.

The ancient courtyard and the inspection department may come.

……

At the moment when Li Hao was talking, the black panther, who had been silent all this time, suddenly bit Li Hao's trouser leg.

Li Hao didn't find anything unusual.

However, the Black Panther was more sensitive than him after all, so he might have sensed something, or Yuan Shuo's words had exposed some people and attracted the attention of the Black Panther.

Someone really is watching this way.

Li Hao's heart moved slightly. This is not a bad thing, but a good thing. Someone is staring at him, which means that the stone knife representing Zhang Yuan's family may not have been taken away.

During the communication, Yuan Shuo was still talking.

However, Li Hao quickly smiled and said: "Teacher, it's not that serious. I'm calling you just to talk about it briefly. The key is not this, but that I have accepted the protection task of the ancient courtyard for inspection. After a few days , I may protect the teacher and go out to investigate together."

"you?"

Yuan Shuo over there seemed a little surprised, and quickly laughed heartily and said, "Alright, then I'll wait for you! It just so happens that this inspection mission is a bit complicated. You have been with me for two years and have learned a lot, but you have not practiced it. Yes! Li Hao, how about treating it as your practical class this time? If you perform well, I can consider giving you the status of a non-staff student. Although there are many rules in the ancient academy, as long as you make meritorious service this time, I can still give you You graduated!"

"You have to know that even if you can get a graduation certificate, you still have to stay in the Inspection Department. A graduation certificate will allow you to be promoted to two levels! Becoming a first-level inspection is a sure thing, and you have a much better future than you do now. Already!"

Li Hao smiled, "Teacher, let's talk when we meet later. I'll go into the room to see if there are any clues. When Zhang Yuan's case is clarified and the murderer is caught, I don't need to tell the teacher, I will find a way." Return to the ancient courtyard."

"also!"

Yuan Shuo urged again: "Contact me at any time if you have any problems. There is nothing that can't be solved. The inspection department and the ancient courtyard can't solve it. Your teacher still has a bit of face. When it comes to the necessary moment, you just need to fight for me in the future. I will help you." Go all out, it's not like some experts can't invite you!"

As soon as these words came out, Li Hao's heart was suddenly shaken and moved silently.

He knew what Teacher Yuan meant.

When the time comes, his so-called expert is probably a night watchman.

Before, Li Hao never said much to the teacher.

He was worried that the trouble would expand and affect the teacher.

However, with the teacher's wisdom, when he heard Li Hao say that Zhang Yuan's self-immolation might not be an accident, he might immediately think that it might be caused by supernatural factors.

Only then did he say the words of finding an expert.

However, even if Mr. Yuan's status is not low, the night watchman didn't just invite him. Li Hao's business is not a business matter, but a private matter, which may require a heavy price.

"Understood, thank you teacher!"

Li Hao hung up the communication, tore the seal casually, and opened the door of the old house that had been dusty for a year.

……

When Li Hao entered the ancient house with the panther.

Outside the silent street, there was a long silence.

In the darkness, a pair of eyes with a faint blue light loomed.

Under the night, a black figure seemed to be a part of the night. From top to bottom, it was black, except for those blue eyes, which were a bit piercing. On his face, he wore a mask like a ghost, covering his appearance. I don't know men and women.

"Li Hao, Zhang Yuan's classmate, best friend, second-level student of Yincheng Ancient Academy, dropped out of school after Zhang Yuan's death last year to join the inspection department, and has been investigating Zhang Yuan's self-immolation incident. Today, I will report to Wang Jie, head of the inspection driver's office, There are six self-immolation cases in series, and they want to deal with them together.”

Information about Li Hao flashed in Sombra's mind instantly.

Li Hao dropped out of school last year and joined the inspection department, but he has already entered the eyeliner.

What's more, it seems to be more than that, Li Hao may still be a key person, but this matter is not within the jurisdiction of Sombra, so I don't know for now, but someone told Li Hao not to move lightly, it is useful to stay.

Heiying thought in his heart that he must not move lightly.

Was Li Hao talking to his teacher Yuan Shuo just now?

Yuan Shuo, the top veteran of the Yincheng Ancient Academy, the director of the Department of Ancient Civilization Exploration, has cooperated with the night watchman, and is one of the few bigwigs in the entire Yincheng who can directly talk to the night watchman.

"It doesn't matter what others say, Li Hao can't move either..."

The black shadow quietly approached the Zhang family's ancient house, he wanted to know why Li Hao went in?

clue?

Zhang Yuan set himself on fire and died in the ancient courtyard. What clues can there be at home?

Or to find something?

As for what to look for, Heiying didn't know, but his task was to keep an eye on everyone who entered or even approached Zhang's old house.

……

"Woooo!"

A low cry came from the black panther's throat. It bit Li Hao's trousers, feeling a little anxious.

As if to say something.

Li Hao remained calm, but he was vigilant in his heart.

Is anyone near?

Isn't the phone call between myself and the teacher enough to dispel some people's thoughts?

Without saying much, he lightly stroked Heibao's head and comforted him for a while, before Li Hao looked at the deserted Zhang family's old house.

This is a small yard.

Straight ahead, is the main house.

On both sides, one is Zhang Yuan's second bedroom, and the other is the kitchen. This place is very familiar to Li Hao. He often came here when he was a child. come over.

This time, Li Hao's main target was the Zhang family's stone knife.

He glanced at it, and it seemed that no one had entered this ancient house, but someone must have been there, not to mention anything else, and the placement of some things seemed normal, but to Li Hao, it was clear that they were all passive. Pass.

Apart from Zhang Yuan, Li Hao is probably the most familiar with Zhang Yuan's family.

In the courtyard, even the old tree had been tampered with. It might have been dug up by someone, and then replanted.

"If Shidao is still in the Zhang family, it must not be in the main house or the second bedroom, 100% sure!"

Li Hao didn't come here often, so he knew the situation. If he had been in these two places, he would have seen them a long time ago, so he wouldn't forget.

"The last time I saw the stone knife was when Uncle Zhang beat Xiaoyuan. I remember that Uncle Zhang threw it on the ground at random, but I don't know if he picked it up later."

Li Hao recalled the past, and he vaguely remembered that Zhang Yuan also seemed to have turned the stone knife out of nowhere at that time.

Zhang Yuan's father probably didn't remember where he lost it before, but the child found it out and took the opportunity to beat Zhang Yuan up. As for any ancestral items, Zhang's father probably didn't take it seriously.

Just a broken rock!

What heirloom?

Even if it is, it's worthless, why do you want that thing? If Zhang Yuan doesn't dig it out, Zhang's father may never remember that there is still a stone passed down in his family.

Following the unclear direction in his memory, Li Hao paced slowly towards a corner of the courtyard.

There, there are some stones piled up, which were originally used to mend the wall.

Li Hao took a quick look, but he didn't remember the stone.

He remembered that the stone was somewhat similar to the knife.

"Someone is staring at me in the dark, so it's not easy to look for it in a big way."

Just as he was thinking, the black panther, who had been silent all this time, suddenly neighed in a low voice.

"Woooo!"

It wasn't the sound of food protection, but with some fear, the black panther whimpered.

At this moment, Li Hao's scalp also felt a little numb!

He followed the panther's line of sight and looked in the direction of the main house, his heart skipped a beat. At this moment, his heart was beating even more violently.

The door of the main house was originally closed, and there was nothing.

But at this time, the door seemed to open a gap, and in that gap, a touch of red could be vaguely seen.

"Blood Shadow?"

Li Hao's heart beat violently, and the blood shadow came out?

He vaguely seemed to have seen it before, but according to his inference, the blood shadow should be dispatched on a rainy night, why did it appear now, and it was in the Zhang family!

"Could it be... this blood shadow has been staying in Zhang's house, looking for the stone knife, but hasn't left?"

A cold sweat trickled out from Li Hao's head invisibly.

It's too early to meet!

Li Hao is not fully prepared yet. Now that he encounters the blood shadow here, once the other party shoots at him and burns him, Li Hao has almost no room to resist.

"Why are you here?"

"Damn it, it appeared too early, I didn't even see the night watchman..."

Li Hao's body was slightly stiff. At this moment, his body trembled slightly, and he even wanted to turn around and run away.

But outside, there might be someone staring at him.

Yes, the blood shadow is invisible to ordinary people.

I can't escape!

Otherwise, even if he escapes, something will be exposed, such as the fact that he can see the blood shadow, which is also a huge trouble.

If you can't see it, then you have no reason to be afraid.

Countless thoughts flashed through, and the next moment, Li Hao scolded: "What's your name? Be quiet!"
