Chapter 507 Investigation

The missing maid was named Xia He.

In her room, all kinds of furniture were cleaned up spotlessly. Detective Ma looked at the photo frame, which showed a young woman with an oval face and two dimples when she smiled, and touched her chin regretfully: "It's a pity..."

After being treated to a sumptuous lunch, he began his investigative work as a matter of course.

The first stop is the maid's room.

"How? Did you find anything?"

However, after seriously clearing the scene, Detective Ma looked at Xiaoling expectantly.

His daughter has the legendary ability of yin and yang eyes, can see many things that ordinary people can't see, and is regarded as a secret weapon by Detective Ma.

"No……"

Ma Xiaoling said timidly, ever since seeing that white shadow, she seemed to have been frightened.

In the past, she mostly used her yin and yang eyes to help her father observe subtle traces that ordinary people could not detect at certain crime scenes, thus providing clues.

But this time, it was the first time she really faced the evil spirit!

"Well, let's go shopping around the mansion again!"

Detective Ma thought about it and said: "Maybe there will be some discoveries... But this Mr. Chen is also a person with a story. I found out about his previous jade business, but he did a lot of it, but in the end he resolutely resolutely bought it at the peak of his life." Retiring, bringing his family here to live in seclusion... It's strange to say, it seems that he didn't see his family this time! Go out and ask!"

"You said Mrs. and Miss!"

The housekeeper Chen Bo was wearing a suit similar to a tuxedo, with a bow tie on his chest, and his hair was combed meticulously. At this time, he heard the inquiry from Detective Ma after he came out, and replied: "Because this kind of thing happened, I was very scared, so Madam and Second Miss first Go back to town!"

"I see!"

Detective Ma nodded, but he shouted in his heart: 'Sure enough, there is a problem! '

Ordinary people would move out to observe this kind of haunted house for a while, even if they didn't believe it anymore? Especially for such rich people who cherish their lives.

But now, that Mr. Chen Xinbo has been sticking to it, especially after someone disappeared, which is very abnormal.

"Alas... Before Madam left, she also persuaded the master, but he insisted on staying, saying that he wanted to accompany the eldest lady!"

Uncle Chen added another sentence.

"It turns out there's another lady who doesn't want to leave!"

Detective Ma nodded. As for the reason why the other party refused to leave, maybe it was because of his boldness, or maybe it was just out of temper?

"Okay, we want to observe this Chen mansion, please guide the housekeeper."

"No problem, the master has ordered me to fully cooperate with sir!"

Uncle Chen showed a smile on his face, and began to inspect the mansion with his father and daughter.

The mansion has a large area. In addition to the main hall, the master's study room, and the bedroom, there are gardens, stables, and a kitchen dedicated to the servants at the back. Even the servants can be divided into one bedroom per person.

"My lord, he... is really a kind-hearted person. He was the one who tried his best to give us servants the best treatment at the beginning. For this reason, he did not hesitate to expand the mansion and spent an extra sum of money."

Chen Bo sighed, and after showing Detective Ma around the garden, he came to the bedroom of the owner in front.

The corridor is made of high-quality mahogany. There are artworks on the surrounding wooden shelves, and there are oil paintings of the first officer on the walls. The entire structure of the mansion is full of an artistic atmosphere. It seems that Chen Xinbo is also a person who enjoys it very much. people.

"This is……"

Detective Ma looked at the jade displayed on a wooden shelf, and through the glass, he could see the crystal green inside, and couldn't move his eyes: "Is this the rough stone? The jadeite ore?"

"Hehe...Mr. Ma has good eyesight, this piece is the master's favorite treasure!"

Chen Bo smiled and pointed to a skylight cut out of a stone: "This is a very precious glass species. It was mixed in a pile of miscellaneous stones at the beginning, but it was caught by the master's eyes. A friend paid eight million and didn't give up. "

"Eight...eight million?"

Detective Ma opened his mouth wide, and soon realized his gaffe, and swallowed hard.

If it wasn't for the strict security here, maybe even he would be tempted.

"Of course, it's just the price of gambling. Because it hasn't been cut completely, it's hard to determine the value. Maybe it's full of stones..."

Chen Bo smiled: "However, there are some people who like this kind of stimulation. Does Detective Ma have any research on jadeite?"

"Ahem...Of course!"

Detective Ma straightened his chest, and his expression became serious: "It is said that crystals such as emeralds have special spiritual power. In the customs of the Gyps in the West, there is a part of using crystals for divination."

"hehe……"

Chen Bo laughed a little stiffly.

He was talking about the value of jade and so on, how did it involve such supernatural aspects?

"dad……"

At this time, Ma Xiaoling was pulling his trousers, obviously gaining something.

"What did you find?"

Detective Ma was shocked and asked quietly.

"There……"

Ma Xiaoling pointed to a door, the door was quite delicate, and the bronze handle exuded a bright luster.

"Whose room is this?"

Detective Ma cleared his throat and asked Uncle Chen.

"Here..." Uncle Chen said with a look of embarrassment on his face, "This is our young lady's room!"

"Can I go in and have a look?"

"Sorry... Our young lady is very afraid of seeing strangers!"

"That's it!"

Detective Ma didn't continue to insist, but he secretly paid attention in his heart.

...

night.

"Dad... we can't do this, it's a girl's room there!"

Ma Xiaoling looked at Detective Ma preparing props with a tangled face, and said in a low voice.

"Ah, ah, ah! Since you think there is something wrong with that room, there must be something bad in it!"

Detective Ma said carelessly: "I'm going to investigate carefully, and I'm also considering the safety of the young lady."

"Is it?"

Ma Xiaoling's expression suddenly became skeptical: "Could it be that you have set your sights on the property of the Chen family, and are you going to find me a stepmother?"

"Pfft! Cough cough!"

Detective Ma almost choked to death on his own saliva: "What nonsense are you talking about? I... Am I that kind of person?"

It's just that while talking, he shrunk his neck guiltily, and straightened his clothes again.

"If not, it's just a simple investigation mission, why did you even change your clothes on purpose..." Ma Xiaoling rolled her eyes, the corner of her mouth could almost hang an oil bottle.

"Hey, take good care of your house, Dad will buy you lollipops when he goes back!"

Detective Ma wiped off his cold sweat and sneaked out the window.

As a detective, he still has some anti-reconnaissance methods. He followed the route he had seen during the day and sneaked to the vicinity of the master bedroom.

At this time, another door creaked open, and Chen Xinbo came to the door of the eldest daughter with a kerosene lamp, took out the key and opened the door: "Wei'er, I'm here to see you!"

"It's so late, and the father still enters the daughter's boudoir at night, there is indeed a problem!"

Detective Ma cursed shamelessly, obviously thinking of some content of the eighteen bans: "It's worth investigating..."

He secretly moved closer, but didn't realize that behind him, a pale hand was also slowly moving forward...

...

"Huh? Who are you?"

At the same time, Ma Xiaoling looked at the child in front of her in surprise.

He was about the same age as himself, but his body was covered with mud and fallen leaves, his clothes were torn several times, like a wild child who just ran out of the barren hills.

The most important thing is that his hands are covered with frozen purple, as if severely frostbitten, but at this moment he is nonchalantly grabbing the pastry on the table and eating it with big mouthfuls.

"Are you a child from the village? Have you been bullied?"

Ma Xiaoling looked at the little boy's hand: "Do you want me to give you medicine?"

"No need, it will be fine on its own!"

Fang Yuan patted his stomach: "Ha... finally barely half full. But I still want to eat meat, do you know where the kitchen is? Oh, by the way, who are you? The child of this family?"

"No... no! I came with my father, he is a very powerful detective, and he is here to investigate a supernatural event!"

Ma Xiaoling was completely confused. Is it really good to say the bad things you have done so carelessly?

"Spiritual?"

Fang Yuan's face brightened, showing an expression of interest, and he said to himself: "I just found the biggest house, can't it be such a coincidence? It just so happens... I haven't seen a ghost outside yet, Mr. Those things in the house are really weird."

After he escaped from Tantai's house, he found a random direction to trek, this was the first time he saw people.

As for why the matter in the Chen mansion did not attract the attention of the Tantai family?

Ninety percent of it is because the Tantai family has fully shrunk their strength and is preparing to deal with the 20-year curse of reincarnation, so why would they care about it?

Besides, they still keep the location of the old house a secret, and the grass beside the rabbit's nest is still a bit scruples to eat.

"Hey, are you sure it's a ghost?"

Fang Yuan stared at Ma Xiaoling.

"Yes... I've seen it!"

Ma Xiaoling bit her lip.

"your eyes……"

Fang Yuan stared into the little girl's eyes and nodded: "I believe in you! However, I have some sad news for you. If you really encounter a ghost, your father may die!"

"you……"

Ma Xiaoling was about to cry: "What should I do? Huh..."

"It's very simple, just hire me!"

Fang Yuan patted his chest: "I guarantee that your dad is fine!"

A detective who specializes in investigating supernatural events is very useful! From Fang Yuan's point of view, those ordinary ghosts and curse events are all good leveling points.

'Anyway, I have nowhere to go, so I just want this detective to help with the identity and settlement procedures first, and then help him solve some supernatural events...Huh? Why is there suddenly a rush of a elementary school student who is a god of death? '

At this moment, Detective Ma also leaned gently in front of the door, and through the half-open gap, Chen Xinbo's voice could be heard:

"Daughter... let me see you again!"

He murmured, stroking the long hair of a woman with her back to the door.

"That is……"

Detective Ma's pupils shrank, and his hair stood on end!
