Chapter 986: Monster Hunt (24)
In fact, Yun Shen's guess was not entirely random. If the fox demon just wanted to absorb the essence of the people, there would be no need to kidnap so many people so blatantly.
If they really wanted to absorb the essence, they should have done it covertly and would never have done it in such a high-profile manner.
Except for a few big monsters that cause trouble to one side, the rest of the monsters walking in the mortal world will not expose themselves openly, even if they don't hide.
However, the fox demon did the exact opposite. Not only did he arrest people in a brazen manner, but he also deliberately left evidence at the crime scene, as if he was telling everyone without hesitation that he was the one who caused the disappearance.
This move is too arrogant, even provocative.
When something is abnormal, there must be something wrong. The fox demon must have a special purpose in doing this.
Thinking of this, Yun Shen said with certainty: "There must be a hidden story behind this disappearance case."
Xuan Yi analyzed the expression on Yun Shen's face and confirmed that Yun Shen was not joking before asking, "How do you know?"
Yun Shen explained: "It is really against common sense that the fox demon went to so much trouble to kidnap so many people. In my opinion, the fox demon's actions do not seem to want to harm people, but rather to be demonstrating."
Xuan Yi repeated doubtfully: "Demonstration?"
Yun Shen added: "It could also be a threat."
Xuan Yi was even more confused. "Did you find any clues?"
Yun Shen shook his head, "No, it's just my intuition from reading too many storybooks."
Thanks to 333's melodramatic novels, he now has a much broader way of thinking and a more open mind.
Xuan Yi's focus was diverted by Yun Shen, "You... like reading storybooks?"
Yun Shen said nonchalantly: "I don't really like it, but I did read a lot."
Xuan Yi pointed to the stairs and said, "Let's go to the crime scene upstairs."
The two investigated but found nothing.
The scene was unusually clean. Apart from some fox hair left on the ground, there was nothing there, as if someone had cleaned it up on purpose.
But the people from the government office had already sealed off the crime scene. Logically speaking, it couldn't be that clean here.
When he was at a loss, Xuan Yi's eyes were attracted by a white porcelain vase, "The vase has been moved."
Xuan Yi's tone was very affirmative.
Yun Shen raised his head and looked at the vase. "Ayi is really meticulous. You were able to detect such a slight trace of movement."
Just as the two were about to get the white porcelain vase, a barely audible sound was heard outside the door.
Yun Shen and Xuan Yi looked towards the door at the same time, and then quickly exchanged glances, which conveyed the same meaning: there was someone outside the door.
The two of them divided the work automatically and tacitly. Yun Shen continued to walk towards the white porcelain vase, using the sound of his footsteps to attract the attention of the people outside the door, while Xuan Yi took the opportunity to set up a formation to trap the people outside the door.
After setting up the formation, Xuan Yi reached out and pushed open the door, revealing a young man outside.
Xuan Yi turned the Bodhi Buddha beads in his hand and said, "There is no demonic aura, it is a human."
Yun Shen looked at the man's appearance and said with a mysterious tone, "What a romantic and handsome young man."
Judging from her appearance, she is most likely the fox demon's mistress.
Xuan Yi frowned when he heard that, and subconsciously turned sideways to block Yun Shen's gaze. He then unconsciously compared his appearance with that man, and it was obvious that his appearance was better.
Realizing what he was thinking, Xuan Yi's ears turned red with embarrassment.
Although Yun Shen did not fully understand the psychological activities of his little wolf cub, he had guessed it roughly.
Sure enough, no matter what, the instinct of jealousy is engraved in the bones of this little wolf cub.
