Chapter 221: Finishing the Ignoring Green Tea No matter which possibility it was, Shen Dinghai felt terrified. This is like a civilian playing Werewolf, who knows when he might be targeted and killed by a wolf. What's more, he and Ranran are not ordinary civilians, but investigators who are specifically assigned to investigate the truth of the matter. In Werewolf, they are equivalent to clergymen, and are thorns in the wolf's eyes that must be removed as soon as possible. As night fell, Shen Dinghai became more and more frightened. "Cousin, do you think Lao He is hiding somewhere, waiting to kill us?" Ran Ran turned her eyes away from the dim little round moon and looked at Shen Dinghai, "I didn't say that Lao He was the murderer, don't mislead me." Shen Dinghai opened his eyes wide, "But your conclusion just now, isn't it that Lao He is the murderer? The second possibility is that Lao He didn't leave, which doesn't contradict Lao He being the murderer at all." "He completely satisfies your two guesses, cousin!" Ran Ran looked at Shen Dinghai's horrified expression, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "We haven't even found out the motive for Lao He to kill Wang Lao Wu, how can we jump to such a conclusion?" "Motive... Who knows what Lao He dislikes about Wang Laowu? Maybe Wang Laowu has hurt Lao He's kitten!"
"Nephew, stop making random guesses. These unfounded thoughts will only make you more anxious and nervous. It's better not to think about anything and have a good rest and sleep." Shen Dinghai said pitifully: "Then I'd better think of something. If I don't think of anything, I always feel that Lao He will jump out and kill me in a second." Ran Ran had no choice but to sort out the current doubts for Shen Dinghai. "First of all, Li Yang boasted about his having seen a ghost before he died." "And the people he wanted to show off to weren't Wang Laowu and the others in his group. He specifically went to Lao He and Sun Zhiqiang's group to show off. This is a bit strange." Shen Dinghai listened carefully and almost took out a small notebook to write it down. "The second is the rope-strangling ghost. Although many workers on the construction site have tacitly accepted the existence of ghosts due to various strange phenomena, so far, there are only two people who have personally said that they have seen the rope-strangling ghost." "Li Yang and Wang Laowu's son. This is the biggest thing they have in common right now." Shen Dinghai pondered, "Cousin, what you mean is that these two people were targeted by the murderer because they said they had seen the rope-strangling ghost, and Li Yang actually saw it, while Wang Laowu was mistakenly believed by the murderer to have seen it?" Ran Ran did not express it. "Before we find more common ground, let's just guess in this direction." Shen Dinghai nodded, like a good student who listened attentively to the lecture, "Anything else? Although these are enough for me to ponder for a whole night." Ran Ran frowned, "The last and strangest thing..." "Second nephew, do you still remember Wang Laowu's description of the strange phenomenon at the construction site? Even the eldest nephew said the same thing - the sound of ghosts crying." "It's the cry of a female ghost." Shen Dinghai was stunned. "It's a female ghost for sure. Isn't the rope-strangling ghost that Wang Laowu told us about a female ghost? Is there anything strange about this?" Ran Ran pondered, "But currently, both the victims and the suspected perpetrators are men, and since we entered the construction site, we have not heard of any female deaths on the site." Looking at Shen Dinghai's bewildered expression, Ran Ran patiently explained, "Nephew, you should understand that a wandering soul always becomes a ghost and stays in the mortal world because it is unwilling to give up." "Behind these deaths, there must always be grievances, anger, and pain, otherwise the souls would find it difficult to endure the wear and tear of the earthly world." "In short, if there is a ghost, there must be a story behind that ghost."
"But we haven't heard any stories about women yet, so where do female ghosts come from?" Shen Dinghai thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out. Finally, he gave up and said, "Could it be that the sound wasn't a female ghost crying? It was just a woman? Was Wang Laowu's judgment wrong?" Ranran saw that Shen Dinghai had forgotten his fear because of his deep thinking, so she patted his head like a little adult. "Okay, nephew, you should go to sleep with these questions now." In a blink of an eye, the two had already arrived at Ning Wu's residence. Before he knocked on the door, Ning Wu had already opened it. He smiled at Ran Ran and said, "Is it just as I expected, a useless attempt?" Ran Ran looked into Ning Wu's eyes and calmly concluded, "The murderer did not kill Wang Laowu outside the construction site and disguised himself inside the construction site." Ning Wu nodded with satisfaction, as if he had expected it. Ran Ran then spoke up, "The murderer killed Wang Laowu at the construction site and disguised himself as someone outside the construction site." Ran Ran said the last few words softly, and then saw Ning Wu raised his eyebrows, "Not bad." "It's not a wasted trip." Shen Dinghai couldn't stand the way he seemed to be happy about Ranran's intelligence. Why should he be so happy? Where does he have the face to do that? Ran Ran asked calmly, "Why do you look so confident? Did you know that our previous conclusion was wrong?" Ning Wu smiled and nodded, "It's relatively easy to push it out. There are no wheel marks from the door to the body..." Ranran interrupted him, "When did you find out?" She frowned, as if Ning Wu standing in front of her was the most difficult puzzle in the world. Ning Wu said calmly: "I will be with you when you find Wang Laowu's body." Ran Ran frowned even deeper, "Did you find out by then?" Ning Wu seemed unaware of Ran Ran's anger and gave him a comforting look. "You are young and small, so it's normal that you can't see." "I am tall, so I can see it naturally." Shen Dinghai vaguely felt that these words had some implications for him, and it turned out to be true the next second. Ning Wu said calmly: "As for those who are tall enough but have not seen it yet, I can only say that not everyone has a keen eye for observation." He smiled, and from his expression, he seemed to be tolerant of Ranran like a gentle brother. "Otherwise, your trip wouldn't be in vain." Ran Ran took a deep breath, ignored Ning Wu's inexplicable hostility towards Shen Dinghai, and asked persistently. "Since you knew, why didn't you tell us earlier? Is this what you call full cooperation?" Ning Wu smiled gently, "You didn't ask me, how should I answer you?" The smile in his eyes deepened little by little, "If you want me to talk to you more, then you should take the initiative to talk to me more." If someone who doesn't know the truth hears such words, they will definitely think that Ning Wu is provoking Ran Ran.
But Ranran was standing opposite him, so she could naturally feel more clearly than anyone else that Ning Wu was speaking the truth. Seeing that Ranran didn't answer, Ning Wu lowered his eyebrows in a somewhat aggrieved manner. "I accompanied you to find the worker who knew the clues. You ignored me along the way. You used me very well, but in the end you were unwilling to give me even a little attention." Shen Dinghai's eyes almost popped out of his head as he listened. ? ? ? ! Is this guy actually a green tea?! And a green tea who knows how to pinch! Faced with Ning Wu's sudden gossip, Ran Ran was stunned for a moment and began to carefully recall her attitude towards Ning Wu along the way. It seemed that he was indeed very cold... She never spoke to him and had always been interacting with Shen Dinghai. But the next moment Ranran realized that there was no need for her to be so enthusiastic about Ning Wu!
