Now, no need to ask, Yingzi must have been kidnapped by the "axe-wielding woman", and she will be the seventh victim. Lang Xiaobai couldn't help but his eyesight turned black, and he felt as if he had fallen into a bottomless pit.

"The murderous witch's usual practice in the past was to wait until the eighth day after abducting a woman to kill her. So Yingzi should still be alive during these eight days, and we must save her during this time.

come out."

He drove his private car back to his residence and told the valet: "In these three or four days, I will think about some important issues in my room. Do not disturb me in any way. You are only allowed to deliver meals or letters every day.

Otherwise, you must not enter my room."

He gave strict instructions to the valet, then went into his room and stayed behind closed doors.

"There are still seven days left. No, just to be cautious, let's count it as six days left. Within six days, we must find out Yingzi's whereabouts."

Lang Xiaobai sat on the soft sofa chair and read the Dongzhou newspaper attentively.

Almost all the newspapers published by Dongzhou in the past two years were gathered in front of him, which he had carefully organized and saved in order of date.

He carefully read the news report about the "axe-wielding woman" from beginning to end, hoping to get some inspiration from it to save Yingzi.

One day, two days, time passed quickly, and there was still no clue. Three days, and four days passed, and there was still no progress. Lang Xiaobai's eyes were red, his hair was disheveled, his cheeks suddenly lost weight, and his beard became very thin.

Longer.

On the fifth day, he continued to flip through the newspapers desperately, but still found no way to save Yingzi. The reports in these old newspapers were of no use at all. Among these reports, starting from the first victim, Mrs. Xuemei, to the sixth

Williamson recorded when he disappeared, the miserable condition of the body, the location where the body was found, etc. All the reports were the same and were introduced in detail, but they did not mention the appearance of the murderer or the method of abducting the target.

, how to kill, how to move the body, etc.

Even though Lang Xiaobai had extraordinary wisdom, he couldn't think of a way to deal with it. "There is no hope anymore." He lamented desperately.

"Tomorrow is the sixth day, and Yingzi only has three days to live." He held his hair with both hands.

"Yingzi! She must be suffering from terror and pain now. Maybe she is calling me desperately, calling my name...but I...can't find any way to save her.

"Oh! No way...my head is going to explode."

He stood up, opened the window, and took a deep breath of air. It was about five o'clock in the afternoon, and the autumn sky was blue, clear and refreshing, and the gentle breeze cooled his sweat-soaked forehead.

However, his heart was filled with darkness, and he stared intently at the flowers blooming in the flower pond in the courtyard.

He began to think deeply, then sat back on the sofa, took out a piece of paper and looked at it carefully.

The names of the six people killed by the demon were written on that piece of paper. At this time, they were listed.

Mrs. Xuemei, the doctor's wife; Fan Ling, a dressmaker; Mo Jiayi, a laundry maid; Miss Huang Qiuyun, the banker's daughter; Miss Ge Lulin, a female oil painter; Miss Williamson, a female nurse of D nationality.

Lang Xiaobai stared at the list with all his heart. It turned out to be like this. It must be so. This was an excellent breakthrough to conduct a thorough investigation.

He clenched his two fists, with a strange look in his eyes. What breakthrough had he found?

The sky was gradually getting darker, and we had to take action immediately. Lang Xiaobai drafted several job advertisements as follows, and then had this advertisement published in the morning papers of several major newspapers:

Those who are interested in becoming a female chef and have long-term experience. Interested parties please write to the newspaper before five o'clock this afternoon.

Ai Xiaoni

The morning paper published this advertisement on the second day, and the name was still in a particularly large black font, so it was very eye-catching. Several letters were sent to the newspaper office before 5 p.m., and two more people called in to apply.

.

Lang Xiaobai took these letters and telegrams back from the newspaper office and read them carefully. Finally, he picked up an express mail. He carefully looked at the front and back of the express mail, and finally

Then he opened the seal and looked at it carefully.

"Well, there's something weird about this letter, maybe that's it." He muttered smugly.

The postmark on the envelope is from the municipal post office, and the sender’s full address is: No. 9, Lane 27, Dongjiang Street, Liao Yaoxuan

"Is this really Liao Yaoxuan?" He was flipping through a book of Dongzhou celebrity names. "Hmm? Municipal Chief?..."

This was somewhat unexpected, and he pondered for a while, but just after a while, he got into his car and arrived at Liao Yaoxuan's residence at No. 9, Lane 27, Dongjiang Street.

This is a very large and luxurious mansion. After Lang Xiaobai handed over his business card, he was led into a study room, which was also very luxurious. Probably the owner of the house loved reading very much, and the

The bookcase is filled with all kinds of books, whether they are old or new editions, they have been framed twice, with bright gold characters printed on the spines, and they are arranged very neatly.

The owner, Liao Yaoxuan, came out. At first, Lang Xiaobai thought that the municipal chief must be quite old, but at first sight, he found that he was much younger than he expected. Although his hair and beard were a little gray,

, but his complexion is very good and he is energetic. Judging from his appearance, he should be an honest, kind, gentle and amiable person.

"Ah, he turned out to be an old man with extraordinary bearing and elegant manners. Did I guess wrong?" Lang Xiaobai thought to himself while bowing respectfully.

The mayor also nodded and smiled, and then the two shook hands. Lang Xiaobai felt that the other person's hand was warm and soft.

"I am Lang Xiaobai, please give me your advice."

"I've heard about the name for a long time. In Dongzhou's social circles, there are probably very few people who don't know the name of Detective Lang Xiaobai!"

"You are too polite to take it seriously."

Lang Xiaobai nodded slightly to express his thanks, but never mentioned the advertisement in the newspaper or the express mail. A gentle and peaceful smile appeared on the mayor's face.

"Don't be offended by my sudden visit today. It's just because I saw in the newspaper that you were very familiar with Fan Ling, the seamstress who was killed by the 'axe-wielding woman'..."

"No, I don't know her very well. It's just because my wife has to let her sew clothes, so she often comes out of our house. She is a very capable dressmaker, and my wife is also very capable.

I support her business, so when I learned the news that she was killed by a murderous demon, I deeply felt sorry for her."

"I also feel the same way. It is really abominable that the devil would extend his claws to such a person."

"This person is the common enemy of the entire Dongzhou citizens! How does the Security Bureau do things? Maybe they still haven't caught her, right?"

"Not only did she fail to catch him, but now, this succubus has abducted a seventh person!"

"Is it true?" After hearing this, the mayor's face suddenly changed.

"And the girl who was abducted was my favorite girl."

"Ah?" The former commander suddenly stood up from his chair as if being bounced up. "Take...your girlfriend?..."
