Chapter 1112 The Truth?
Zhou Ran, Qianxun and Kuangsha came to the streets of Linghai City.
Linghai City was built by Linghai Gate. The city-state is not large. Apart from the people of Linghai Gate, the city cannot accommodate too many people.
Therefore, the citizens living in Linghai City all have some backgrounds, which is far from the people living outside the city.
The disappearance of the citizens caused a great disturbance in Linghai City.
Although the leader Lingwu has agreed to send people to investigate, people are still panicking.
The citizens on the streets are all discussing this matter.
"This is too weird, isn't it? A good person just disappeared. Could it be that the enemies of Linghaimen are seeking revenge?"
"It's possible, but even if the enemies are seeking revenge, they can't kidnap so many people overnight? What kind of force has the ability to bypass the defense of Linghai City and attack innocent citizens?"
"Did Linghaimen offend the heaven? So it was punished by heaven?"
"No, the sect leader Lingwu has always been meticulous and never committed crimes. How could Linghai City be punished by heaven?"
"Meticulous? Never committed crimes? What a joke, how can immortals and powerful people be clean?"
The citizens were discussing, and when they saw Zhou Ran and the other three approaching, they could only stop discussing and dispersed.
But what the citizens said had already entered the ears of the three people.
Zhou Ran smiled and said, "It seems that the citizens of Linghai City don't have a high degree of favorability towards the immortals."
Qianxun had a bitter face: "The entire Changsheng World is the same. Grandpa saw this and asked me to invite you. I hope you can help him change the current situation of the Changsheng World."
Kuangsha sighed and said, "If the immortals want to become stronger, they must fight constantly. Fighting will consume the soul, and the only way to cleanse the soul is the soul of the living. As long as this contradiction is not resolved, other people's attitude towards the immortals will not change."
The three people originally wanted to say more, but the most urgent task was to find the missing citizens, so they couldn't delay for a moment.
They came to the home of a citizen. It is said that overnight, the five members of this family disappeared. No matter how you look at it, it is incredible.
The investigation of Zhou Ran and others also attracted a lot of bystanders, all of whom were neighbors of this citizen.
The neighbors saw that they were sent by Linghaimen, and they all told Zhou Ran and others what they knew.
"All five members of the family are gone. It's so weird, as if they were possessed by evil spirits."
"They were fine yesterday, but they disappeared early this morning. I thought they had gone out, but when I went into the house, everything was still there, but the people were gone."
"And all five members of this family are men, brothers. It's almost impossible to abduct them silently."
The neighbors talked a lot, but they didn't give any clues.
Qianxun pouted. It might not be easy to find out the truth.
Zhou Ran walked into the house where the five brothers lived. The furnishings in the house were neat and tidy, and there were no signs of rummaging, which showed that there was no fight in the house.
"The five brothers were taken away without any resistance. To do this, the five brothers must be unconscious, or the attacker is strong enough to knock all five of them out at the same time."
Zhou Ran analyzed. Although the analysis made sense, he couldn't take the reasoning any further.
Kuangsha frowned: "If it is a formation, it may make people disappear suddenly. Zhou Ran, did the murderer use a formation?"
"No." Zhou Ran shook his head, "There is no breath left by the formation around, which shows that it is not the work of the formation."
"If it is not a formation, how did the murderer take these people away? Not only these five brothers, but also other citizens! In one night, quietly, how could ordinary people do it?"
Qianxun was confused. At this point in the investigation, it seemed to have reached a dead end.
Zhou Ran looked at Qianxun and Kuangsha and said: "Everything depends on human efforts. If they really want to kidnap those people, they will definitely be able to do it. Although it seems weird,
it is not impossible. I have grasped some clues. As long as I investigate all the houses of missing people in the city, I will know who did it."
Zhou Ran's words made Qianxun and Kuangsha excited.
I was still confused, but I didn't expect Zhou Ran to have a clue. Zhou Ran's insight is really incomparable to ordinary people.
Zhou Ran took Qianxun and Kuangsha to continue investigating in Linghai City.
Every time he arrived at a place, Zhou Ran asked the people around him, and the families of the missing citizens, and questioned them carefully.
Although the words of each person being investigated were messy, Zhou Ran understood them completely, and nodded while listening.
In this regard, Qianxun and Kuangsha could only look at each other in bewilderment.
They didn't understand a word, but Zhou Ran heard it clearly. What did Zhou Ran understand?
Qianxun and Kuangsha were at a loss, and the day's investigation was over.
It was dusk, and Linghai City had a curfew. The citizens had to go home and rest after dark and could not leave the house.
Zhou Ran and others could not continue the investigation, and the three could only return to Linghai Gate.
"Zhou Ran, what did you find out after a day of investigation?" Qianxun asked curiously.
"Of course there is a result! After returning, I will report this matter to the master in person!"
Zhou Ran looked confident.
Qianxun and Kuangsha couldn't understand it at all. Although they had been with Zhou Ran, they didn't see any clues at all.
Why did Zhou Ran already know the truth?
Although they were suspicious, out of trust in Zhou Ran, the two naturally did not continue to ask questions.
Zhou Ran must be afraid that the walls have ears, so he personally reported the matter to Lingwu. If someone found out, it would be bad to relocate the missing city residents.
The three of them returned to Linghai Gate, and Zhou Ran wanted to go to the inner hall where the sect leader Lingwu was.
Before leaving, Zhou Ran suddenly glanced at Kuangsha.
"Kangsha, please take Qianxun around."
"Walking around?"
Kuangsha was stunned, what kind of words are these?
Is Zhou Ran trying to bring himself and Qianxun together?
She is the granddaughter of the temple elder Qi Zun, so how could she look down on her unknown self? More importantly, she has no interest in this woman.
Just as he was about to retort, Kuangsha felt a pain in his palm.
"Go quickly, before it gets dark."
Zhou Ran added that Kuangsha had no choice but to take Qianxun for a walk in the backyard.
Qianxun did not object and followed Kuangsha silently.
Zhou Ran watched the two people's backs with no expression on their faces.
It wasn't until the two of them could no longer be seen that Zhou Ran took steps towards the inner hall.
As for the shadow behind him, Zhou Ran didn't bother to pay attention to it at all.
