Chapter 49: Something Happened Again
Until the third day, another murder occurred in the school. Gu Wenyu was originally in the hospital for bed, but she received a call from Teacher Zhu early in the morning saying that a boy died on the road next to the library.
Gu Wenyu didn't say anything, washed up randomly and called a taxi back to school.
Li Jia sat up from the bed alone. She looked out the window with some conscience, her eyes were ethereal, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
Gu Wenyu came to the location where Teacher Zhu said that the police had set up a cordon here, and it was impossible for idle people to enter, but Teacher Zhu was inside the cordon, and Team Zhuang was talking to him something.
Gu Wenyu was stopped outside the cordon. At this time, she didn't care about so much and waved to Teacher Zhu directly. Teacher Zhu and Team Zhu looked at her at the same time. Teacher Zhu and Team Zhu whispered a few words, and Team Zhuang asked someone to let Gu Wenyu come in too.
When Teacher Zhu saw Gu Wenyu walking to her side, he whispered: "It should be a faceless evil spirit."
"Let's go!" Gu Wenyu didn't go to see the body, but pulled Teacher Zhu and walked out.
Teacher Zhu was stunned for a moment, but then he reacted and said in surprise: "Can you catch up with the smell?" It was impossible to track it several times in a row, but Teacher Zhu no longer had any fantasies, but unexpectedly there was a reversal.
"Yes." Gu Wenyu said, and couldn't help but speed up, fearing that the demonic energy would be diluted again.
At this time, Team Zhuang had already followed and asked Teacher Zhu in confusion: "Teacher Zhu, where are you going?"
Teacher Zhu quickly replied: "There is a clue."
When Team Zhuang heard this, his eyes were lit up. He quickly explained to his subordinates, and then trotted to catch up with Teacher Zhu and Gu Wenyu.
Gu Wenyu glanced at the village team, looking like she wanted to speak but stopped.
Teacher Zhu seemed to understand Gu Wenyu's concerns, so he explained: "It's okay, Captain Zhuang already knows it. With him here, we will be much more convenient."
Gu Wenyu nodded then, then continued to chase the demonic energy forward, and at the same time he said in confusion: "It's a bit strange. As long as the faceless evil did not appear, I couldn't find it at all. Why did it suddenly appear again now? Moreover, it seems that it was acting separately from the Devouring World Flower."
Teacher Zhu looked not surprised, "Why do you think the Faceless Sword can pretend to be a human?"
"Why?" Gu Wenyu really didn't think about this problem.
"Faceless evil must maintain a person's appearance by constantly eating, otherwise it will only look like a ball of rotten meat." Teacher Zhu said.
"Then why do you have to act separately from the Devouring World Flower? If the Devouring World Flower is there, I can't track it down." Gu Wenyu still couldn't understand the motive of the Faceless Sword.
In response to this, Teacher Zhu also said that he didn't know, but the Zhuang team on the side proposed a hypothesis, "Is it because of disagreement? We have seen many cases of dog biting dogs."
Gu Wenyu and Teacher Zhu both looked at Team Zhuang, as if this was a reasonable explanation. Teacher Zhu thought for a while and said, "If it is a disagreement, then that means that the only thing that wants to eat people is the faceless evil spirit."
Speaking of this, Teacher Zhu sighed again, "If this is the case, it will be even more difficult for us to find the Faceless Demon."
Gu Wenyu did not respond, and the demonic energy in the air became increasingly weak, so she had to concentrate on distinguishing.
The three of them came all the way to the staff dormitory. Gu Wenyu glanced at Teacher Zhu, and the doubts in his eyes became even more serious. "I have been here so many times before, but why didn't I find it at all..."
"It should be after that." Teacher Zhu guessed that Gu Wenyu had never been to the staff dormitory in the past two days.
Gu Wenyu kept walking in and took the two of them to the last building, "It's here." She frowned and said, "But something is wrong, the demonic energy here is too weak."
"What does it mean?" Captain Zhuang said in confusion.
"If the faceless evil is really inside, the demonic energy shouldn't be so indifferent." Gu Wenyu explained, but she was more confused than Captain Zhuang, "But the demonic energy disappeared here, and I shouldn't be wrong."
"Go up and take a look first." Teacher Zhu said and walked into the building.
When Gu Wenyu saw that Teacher Zhu had entered, she did not hesitate anymore. She caught up with Teacher Zhu in a few steps and then walked in front.
The three of them did not take the elevator. If they were to do it, Gu Wenyu would not be able to judge which household it was.
So they walked up one floor after another, until the ninth floor. Gu Wenyu sniffed everywhere, then pointed to a family in the middle and whispered: "It's here."
Team Zhuang nodded, and he went up and knocked directly on the door.
After knocking for a long time, no one answered, but the door next door was knocked open. It was an old man with white hair and beard. The old man opened the door and asked, "Are you?"
Team Zhuang showed his ID and asked, "Grandpa, do you know this family?"
The old man nodded, "I know Xiao Hu, the teacher from Lanyin University seems to be a teacher of art." After saying that, the old man asked carefully: "Police Officer, what are you asking for Xiao Hu? He didn't have any trouble, right?"
Team Zhuang did not answer the old man’s question, but asked back: “Do you have his contact information?”
The old man shook his head, "I don't know, you can go to the school to ask."
Team Zhuang nodded, "Thank you." Then he looked at Teacher Zhu and Gu Wenyu and said, "I'll go and make a phone call."
The old man looked at the three of them with curiosity on his face, "Police Officer, what happened?"
Team Zhuang's face was sluggish when he heard this, "Sorry, it's not convenient for us to disclose the case."
As he said that, he walked downstairs, and Gu Wenyu pulled Teacher Zhu down. Teacher Zhu wanted to stay at the door, but he was afraid that Faceless evil would take the opportunity to escape, but Gu Wenyu insisted on pulling him away.
Seeing that there was no fun, the old man closed the door in disappointment.
When Gu Wenyu saw the old man close the door, she whispered: "The breath here is too faint, it is very similar to the aura of the world-devouring flower before. It is very likely that the faceless evil is no longer inside."
Teacher Zhu looked up at the Ninth Floor, his tone was full of doubt, "Diejiehua? Why did the Devouring World Flower take away the Faceless Evil here?"
Gu Wenyu shrugged, "How did I know? Maybe they have reconciled again."
Teacher Zhu gave Gu Wenyu a blank look, "Have you been to the art building these two days?"
Gu Wenyu nodded, "I've been there, but I didn't find any demonic energy."
"That's strange." Teacher Zhu touched his chin. He couldn't figure it out. If Wumian was a teacher in the art department, Gu Wenyu should have been able to find some clues in the art department.
Team Zhuang just hung up the phone at this time, and he whispered: "No wonder."
Gu Wenyu and Teacher Zhu looked at Team Zhuang together, waiting for his next sentence.
The village team did not keep it in hiding, and then said, "Hu Hongbo has taken leave these two days and has not gone to class at all."
"No wonder." Gu Wenyu understood now, and she thought there was something wrong with her nose.
As soon as she finished speaking, Teacher Zhu suddenly changed her face, "What happened in the school!"
