C33

Night had come and gone.

The area around Zongxi Street was extremely quiet, all the houses had their doors and windows tightly closed, no light could leak out, maybe Sha Xing Luo was hidden right beside them, no one wanted to attract Sha Xing Luo's attention.

Zongxi Street was still sealed, there were wind lamps at both ends of the street. Under the dim light, the guards on the street were all long gone, all of them looked listless, as if they had just slept on the ground.

Such a cool spring night. He really wanted to hug his wife and sleep in a hot bed ? The bailiffs were yawning as they thought to themselves.

"Ah, help!"

Suddenly, a shrill scream sounded from the darkness not far away, instantly breaking the deathly silence.

The constables who were guarding the street felt a chill in their hearts. They pulled out their weapons and rushed towards the direction of the cry for help.

The cry for help was fleeting, as if the caller had been completely reined in. Perhaps another murder was waiting for them.

However, what they did not know was that as soon as they ran, a person jumped down from the wall. He quickly ran past the intersection and entered the Zongxi Street, running towards the direction of the Nangong Residence.

The dim ruins soon appeared in the man's line of sight.

It was like a huge beast that had its bones ripped apart. The air was filled with the smell of blood and smoke, giving off a sorrowful and ominous feeling.

After last night's blood and fire, as well as today's search and observation, the ruins had long since lost their value in being watched and approached by anyone. The quiet "hu hu" or "wu" sounds that came from the night wind sounded like the low howls of ghosts.

Ordinary people would feel their blood run cold when they heard this. They would run away quickly, but the shadow would walk to the ruins without a shred of fear. They would stop, observe, and wait for their eyes to adjust to the darkness before stepping into the ruins.

As a former top bad person, how could she be afraid of death and darkness?

The real danger had always been living people.

She smiled and started searching the ruins. From time to time, she would pick up a stone or a wooden stick and knock the walls and the ground.

If anyone heard such a sound, they would definitely think that this place was haunted. However, no one, not even the bailiffs, was willing to come here.

She was free to roam the ruins and beat around like a ghost.

After strolling around for two laps, she was a little tired. She sat in the depths of the ruins and started to sing in a low voice, "Two tigers, two tigers, two tigers, running fast, one without eyes, one without a tail. How strange ?"

When she was young, her mother had been immersed in these useless tasks like dressing up, singing to herself, and waiting for men. She didn't have much time to care for her, as most of the time, it was the old ghost who played with her.

Old Devil would often sing her the songs of the Celestial dynasty before she went to sleep. She could clearly remember how he sang these songs.

Now that she thought about it, the time of her childhood that she had once hated was actually so beautiful.

While singing, her lyrics changed, and the melody became chaotic as well: "Sha Xing Luo, oh Sha Xing Luo, I know you're here, quickly come out quickly, come out quickly, I have something to talk to you about, Sha Xing Luo, oh Sha Xing Luo, if you don't come out soon I'll report you, la la la la la ?"

The night wind blew, and the trees swayed as dust rose. Another "wuwu wuwu" sound was emitted from the rubble, and it continuously revolved around her ears. (TL: Wuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwu)

By the time the sounds from these people had disappeared, a small knife had already silently pressed against the side of her neck.

Killing intent! A cold, sharp killing intent emanated from the point of contact between the blade and her skin, spreading throughout her entire body!

Her body trembled slightly. When she instinctively felt fear towards death, she couldn't suppress the excitement she felt even more, because she knew that she had guessed correctly.

"Big brother, don't be rash." "I will be your partner, not your enemy. It is more useful for you to let me live than to let me die."

Although she did not know how the other person had appeared, she was clearly standing behind her. The stench of blood on her body was very strong, but the hand holding the blade was steady and the voice was also firm, "Who are you and what do you want to do?"

"I am the bad guy who has to save the world ? Ye Lan Shan!" Ye Lan Shan proudly introduced herself, "The reason I came to find you was to save you first, and then, I hope that you can save me this time as well."

The other party didn't react for a long time.

Ye Lan Shan was sure that he was shocked by her first sentence, and thought "Damn, I met a madman."

She took her time and waited for him to make a joke. Then she quickly arrived.

"Save the world?" The other party consciously controlled his voice and snorted, "Are you stupid, or do you think I'm stupid?"

"No matter how others make fun of me, I will work hard for my dream." Ye Lan Shan very seriously declared his name, "Also, I am not stupid at all, otherwise I would not have guessed that you would be hiding here. "You aren't stupid at all. Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to hide here safely after committing such a huge crime."

The man stopped laughing and said calmly, "With your guts, I'll give you a chance to leave behind your last words."

When was the killer the calmest?

When he was killing someone.

Ye Lan Shan was sweating profusely: "I'm afraid of death, so I'll tell you the reason why you can't kill me."

"Firstly, I know Sha Xing Luo's appearance. Moreover, I've already had someone draw an accurate picture of Sha Xing Luo. If you kill me, the portrait of Sha Xing Luo will be sent to the officials. That's why I will tell you that Sha Xing Luo is around seventeen years old this year. He isn't tall or short, isn't fat or thin, isn't handsome or ugly, and doesn't have any special characteristics. "

The other party: "..."

"Secondly, I know that Sha Xing Luo has a deep grudge with the Nan Gong Family. However, he does not have the confidence to annihilate the Nan Gong Family nor do he have the confidence to avoid the officials' pursuit."

"Therefore, before Sha Xing Luo attacked the Nan Gong Family, he killed three nobles that had nothing to do with him. He also issued a killing notice in advance, creating a killing scene in which he announced before killing anyone else, using this to confuse the judgement of the officials and the direction of their investigation."

"After that, Sha Xing Luo officially took action against Nangong Residence. Nangong Residence wouldn't be on guard against Sha Xing Luo without receiving a warning to kill him. And after the massacre occurred, the yamen authorities thought that Sha Xing Luo had nothing to do with the Nan Gong Family and that he was probably just hired to kill people. Sha Xing Luo could hide his motive and identity. "

"I also wrote a secret letter about this secret. If I were to be killed by you, these secrets would be exposed, and the officials would be able to investigate the past of the Nan Gong Family Patriarch through the direction of the vengeance. They might be able to find out about Sha Xing Luo's background."

The other party: "..."
