Li Bing pondered: "This is too strange. If Li Jianfeng's death was really the night before yesterday, then all my previous conclusions would be invalid. That night, He Jie was with Zhang Ling all night, while Cao Jianwei chatted with Zhou Kejun. At dawn, they both have witnesses who rule out the suspicion of committing the crime."

Zhao Waner said: "Li Bing, you haven't finished speaking yet. In addition to He Jie, Cao Jianwei, Zhou Kejun, Zhang Ling and Shao Lixia, aren't they also suspected of murder? You said it yourself, all of them are suspected."

Li Bing smiled and said: "I'm just reasoning about it logically and it's not necessarily the truth. We don't know whether the other three people had the motive to kill Li Jianfeng. Another possibility is that Zhang Ling or Tong Kejun cooperated with He Jie respectively." and Cao Jianwei are lying”

Huang Shengjie shook his head and said: "I don't think this is very possible. Although I have never personally experienced a murder case, I have handled a lot of other cases, large and small. When I interrogated several of them at He Jie's house, based on my experience, Zhang Neither Ling nor Zhou Kejun seems to be lying."

Li Bing pondered: "This is strange. Is there really a curse that kills people? But Brother Zhang also said that although the cave has cold air, it is not evil. If it is indeed a curse that kills people, then the evil air should be very strong in the Seven Star Cave." The case is so complicated and confusing that I can’t think of any clues for the time being. Officer Huang, it’s almost time for dinner, why don’t we go to He Jie’s house to understand the situation.”[

Huang Shengjie happily agreed and knocked on He Jie's door with a few people.

As soon as he saw Huang Shengjie leading a few strangers he had never seen before and knocking on the door of his home, He Jie couldn't help but be stunned. Just as he was stunned, the four classmates behind him shouted in surprise: "Miss Zhao, what are you doing?" will come here”

Zhao Waner and the others entered He Jie's house. He Jie stood stupidly at the door. Zhang Ling gave him a look and said: "He Jie, Miss Zhao and a few others are some Shanghai tourists we met on the road. It's not early." Did I tell you?"

He Jie was even more surprised: "Zhang Ling, what I'm curious about is not their identities. There is a flood in the canyon. It has started raining heavily in the past two days. How did these strangers come to the west of our village? Did they fly here?"

Li Bing burst out laughing, stretched out his hand and said to He Jie: "Are you classmate He Jie? My name is Li Bing and these are all my friends. We took advantage of the flood to subside a little and ventured across the canyon yesterday evening, but we didn't expect that just after we passed the canyon, we saw The flash flood suddenly broke out again and it started raining heavily, which scared us.”

He Jie also stretched out his hand and shook hands with Li Bing politely. Li Bing said: "We saw that the sky was already dark here and we were unfamiliar with the place. We were wet like drowned rats and were clueless. We happened to meet Officer Huang in Huang. After the police officer heard that we had made an appointment with Cao Jianwei and others to explore Qixing Cave, Officer Huang warmly entertained us and let us stay at his house."

Huang Shengjie shouted: "He Jie, stop talking nonsense. We haven't eaten yet. Do you have anything delicious here? Hurry up and bring it up. I have to investigate some things with you."

He Jie was stunned. He quickly called Zhang Ling and Shao Lixia to come to help and they went to the kitchen to work together.

While they were cooking, Li Bing and others, accompanied by Huang Shengjie, carefully observed the situation of He Jie's house. The architectural style of He Jie's house was exactly the same as that of Huang Shengjie's house.

After asking Zhou Kejun about the rooms everyone lived in, Li Bing and others entered Li Jianfeng's room and inspected it carefully. There was nothing special about it.

Just when they were disappointed, Zhang Ling shouted loudly that everyone could start eating.

During the meal, Huang Shengjie told everyone that although Li Bing and others were not police officers, they had many experiences assisting the criminal police in solving crimes. During the flood and mountain closures, he was unable to investigate the murder of Li Jianfeng alone, so he asked Li Bing and others to help solve the case. He hoped that everyone would cooperate with Li Bing and others' investigation.

Li Bing seriously asked about the situation before and after the incident. Everyone's answers were exactly the same as those in Huang Shengjie's transcript. They couldn't find anything. So, Li Bing winked at Huang Shengjie and said, "Everyone, it seems that the curse killed Li Jianfeng. It's just us." We all know that superstition cannot be promoted. Don’t tell anyone. This case is that Officer Huang is responsible for it, and it may become an unsolved case.”

He glanced at the crowd and said: "We are staying at Officer Huang's house. Since you are not suspected of murder, you don't have to stay in the house all the time. You can walk around, but remember not to go to the back mountain again, especially the terrifying Seven Star Cave. By the way, if any of you think of anything that is inconvenient to say publicly, you can quietly talk to Officer Huang or me."

Li Bing said to Huang Shengjie: "Officer Huang has eaten and understood the situation. It seems that this is really a curse murder case. Let's go back to your house and let Brother Zhang prepare to break the curse."

Huang Shengjie looked stunned. When he saw Li Bing winking at him, he didn't know what kind of medicine Li Bing was selling in his gourd. He responded vaguely, said goodbye to Li Bing and the others, and returned to his home with the five students.

Just entering Huang Shengjie's house, he was about to ask a question when he heard Shi Liya ask in fear: "Is Li Bing really killing people with a curse? That's too bad. I also knocked off the paint paintings on the rock wall in the Seven Star Cave. Will the curse come?" on my head"

Li Bing couldn't help laughing when he saw Shi Liya's frightened look. He held back a moment and said, "Sister Shi, why did you believe what I just said so easily? I just saw Shao Lixia's eyes twinkling, wanting to speak but not knowing that something was wrong, so I I purposely said this to make the murderer relax his vigilance, and at the same time allowed them to move freely on behalf of Officer Huang without authorization, just so that insiders among them could quietly come forward and provide clues."

Shi Liya breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Li Bing, you scared me to death. Who would have guessed that you had this intention?" [

Li Bing chuckled and said: "Sister Shi, it's normal for you not to guess. If you usually understand what I mean, it's different today. That's because you were afraid when you encountered the mural, so you thought about it and didn't understand me. Let’s talk about the real meaning. Even if there is a curse, why are you worried that having Brother Zhang around will put you in any danger?”

Shi Liya smiled and everyone was amused. The atmosphere suddenly became relaxed.
