He turned back and untied a package on his back and opened it. The inside was also a wooden box, but the volume was dozens of times that of the small box.

Ah Ying put all the books and accounts in the wooden box, but put the small red sandalwood box into her arms alone.

After doing all this, he pushed down the candle on the table and watched the burning flame gradually spread, swallowing the entire desk.

The strong smell of blood in the room could not hide the smell of another sulfurous smell. As long as the flames spread to the place where the gunpowder was sprinkled, this restaurant filled with the smell of death would explode into the most splendid and warm fireworks tonight.

Ah Ying glanced around the room again, but did not cast a single glance at the corpse behind the bookcase, and then jumped out of the window, gliding like a roc with wings, and then disappeared into the night.

"Hey, look, why is the sky red over there?"

The bell of the hour had already struck, and the cheering crowd began to disperse. At this time, someone noticed that the sky in the south of the city was turning red.

With the direction of his fingers, someone else noticed that the thick smoke was rising, not like fireworks, but more like a fire somewhere.

"Wouldn't it be running water? It smells like smoke!"

"It's running out of water, go and call someone to help!"

More people discovered that something was wrong. The joy of celebrating the festival was immediately dissipated by the tense atmosphere. Everyone shouted and ran, wanting to quickly put out the fire.

Every year, there are incidents of people running into water because of the fireworks. It is said that such a large-scale fire should have alerted the government fire brigade that was waiting, but the people shouted for a long time, but no member of the fire brigade appeared.

Just when the common people carried buckets and wooden basins and were about to spontaneously fight the fire, they suddenly heard a loud "bang", and the ground seemed to be shaking. Pieces of wood and rubble fluttered in the sky, and some people who had gotten very close were hit and fell to the ground bleeding profusely.

All of a sudden, there were screams and screams, and the rest of the people were busy avoiding the flying rubble, dragging the injured away by the way.

No one dared to come to treat the wounded until the sound of the explosion ended. As for the detonated building, it had long since been bombed to the point of rubble, and only some remnants of the wooden frame were still burning.

The bloody case on New Year's Eve is not an isolated case. In the next few days, the same case happened in several cities, and the victims were all branches of the same restaurant. For a while, what was the offense of this restaurant? People's rumors are rampant.

Because every time it was an explosion and fire, countless charred bones were found from the remaining building wreckage, so the bloody horror of this serial case diluted the happy and peaceful atmosphere of the New Year. Anxiety, for fear that such a bad luck will befall him.

It is strange to say that these bombings will affect some innocent people without exception. Whether they are injured or their homes are damaged, they will receive banknotes of different denominations in the next few days.

It was as if it was the compensation given by the vicious murderer, and the amount of each family was as little as a dozen, dozens of taels, and as many as hundreds of taels, and they were compensated according to the circumstances of each family.

For a while, everyone didn't know whether to say that the murderer was insane, or whether he was still human.

The most troubled are the officials in various places. They can't extract any useful clues from the scene of the case, and they don't even have a direction to investigate, and they are offering a lot of money to the society to solicit clues and insiders. After disappearing, no one dared to come to the door to provide clues. The investigation of the case was like a bull into the sea, and it was completely deadlocked.

Mo Ruyue only learned about the rumors of this bloody case after she returned to the White House to continue her treatment, but on the morning of the first day of the new year, when she didn't know anything about it, she had to follow her plan to go into the mountains to visit old friends.

"Qingyan, if someone comes to pay New Year's greetings in a while, you can watch the reception and have refreshments, and you don't need to separate the relatives and distances."

Mo Ruyue warned Qin Qingyan when she was going out.

"Understood, mother, you have to pay attention to safety when you enter the mountain, and come back early."

Qin Qingyan is now accustomed to Mo Ruyue's behavior of going into the mountains from time to time, and not every time she comes back with prey and herbs, obviously she has another purpose in going into the mountains.

But now he won't go to the bottom of his head to ask for a reason, he will just warn her and wait for her to come back.

After what happened at Aunt Liu's house last night, Mo Ruyue is now completely relieved of Qin Qingyan's ability to handle such human feelings and sophistication. For the villagers who come to pay New Year's greetings, he can definitely "entertain" them well. .

So after being intimate with the rest of the babies one by one, Mo Ruyue turned around and went out and went straight to the back mountain.

Since the wolves were attacked, they have completely abandoned the caves they used to inhabit and moved to the Treasure Valley.

After Mo Ruyue entered the mountain, she went directly to the Treasure Valley. About 100 meters away from the valley, she noticed the existence of the Sentinel Wolf.

She stopped, turned her head to look at the bushes beside her, and saw two giant wolves with their heads bowed, their tails wagging slightly, and a soft whimper came out of their throats.

"Hey, nice to see you too."

Mo Ruyue bent down and opened her arms to welcome the two giant wolves and greeted them affectionately.

One of the giant wolves bit Mo Ruyue's sleeve and dragged her towards the Treasure Valley, as if impatiently wanting her to go to the mountain

Valley guest.

Since the last time she found out that the giant wolves seemed to be closer to the man in black, it was a lie to say that she was not disappointed, but now it seems that the giant wolves still have the same trust and closeness to her, which makes her feel a little gratified. .

"Okay, I'll go over by myself, you guys continue to be sentry."

Mo Ruyue patted on the head of the giant wolf who was biting on her sleeve, and then continued to walk towards the Treasure Valley.

There were two dark whistles along the way, and each time they passed, a sentinel wolf dragged her in the direction of the valley, as if she was afraid that she would leave, Mo Ruyue keenly sensed something was wrong.

It wasn't like a simple welcome to her, there seemed to be something else.

She immediately accelerated her steps and entered the valley. This time, the Black Wolf King came out to meet her.

"Well, what the hell happened?"

Mo Ruyue asked the Black Wolf King directly.

The Black Wolf King licked the back of her hand lightly, then turned around and walked into the depths of the valley.

One person and one wolf walked through the entire valley and came to the opposite cliff.

In order to pick herbs, Mo Ruyue had seen the whole valley go all over the place, knowing that this was a ring-shaped mountain range similar to a meteorite impact crater, and the entire valley had only the entrance to the opposite valley.

However, under the leadership of the Black Wolf King, Mo Ruyue found another triangular hole similar to the entrance.

She squinted at the entrance, then turned her head to look behind her, and stretched out her hand to compare the entrance on the opposite side, as if she was measuring something.
