The four people holding lanterns looked around them and found nothing.
They said, "Did it really fall here?
Could it have fallen somewhere else?"
Shen Yinqiu stood up from behind Wan Qiyan, pointed to the front and said, "My husband and I were standing there just now, but the smell was too bad, so we ran here."
Wan Qiyan followed her words and said, "Brother, could you please lend me a lantern so I can have a look before I go down?"
Shen Yinqiu didn't intend to get the lanterns.
If he remembered correctly, there was a strange rule in the Thousand Lantern Festival, which was that you couldn't give the lanterns to others at will, unless the other person was the person you liked.
Sure enough, as soon as Wan Qiyan finished speaking, the four people holding the lanterns hesitated and decided, "We'll just help you with lighting in front."
Shen Yinqiu secretly laughed twice, success.
Wan Qiyan rubbed Shen Yinqiu's forehead lovingly, bowed to them, and then walked to the front together, not forgetting to explain: "Please forgive me, because I don't know where the smell is emanating from the lake, so I don’t mind asking everyone to come with me.”
"No matter what, it's more important to find your money bag first."
Seeing how kind-hearted they all were, Shen Yinqiu felt a little guilty for deceiving them just now.
The stench got worse and worse, and some people couldn't bear it and started coughing.
Those holding lanterns asked them to stay back.
But it was no use.
The one without a lantern was still by his side.
Shen Yinqiu smiled generously at them, his face full of gratitude, and then lowered his head and pretended to search hard.
The fireworks stopped at some point, and the surroundings fell into silence, because it was winter and there was no sound of insects.
Shen Yinqiu covered her mouth and nose tightly.
Even a handkerchief couldn't resist the stench at such a close distance.
But the expanding object did become clearer and clearer.
Shen Yinqiu gradually widened his eyes.
"Hair" After hearing her words, several people looked up and looked at her.
Shen Yinqiu looked at them in panic and said, "Let's go back.
We don't need the money bag.
Let's go."
She looked very strange.
The few people were puzzled by this, but they didn't lose their temper.
They just asked: "Why is this?"
Because there were so many people, Shen Yinqiu wasn't too scared.
She pulled Wan Qiyan back a few words, and then waved for them to also step back and come over.
"Look at what's floating by the lake."
She said it so softly and carefully that people couldn't help but feel chills running down their spines in the dark night.
The fox mask hanging around her waist seemed to be mocking them coldly.
The men holding lanterns looked at me, and I looked at you, and finally they all looked at the frightened Shen Yinqiu.
She was very good-looking.
Fortunately, she still had baby fat on her face, which made her a little more cute and a little more charming.
She would hide timidly next to her husband, just like the sister next door, so that they could not have evil thoughts, and comforted them: "Don't be afraid, just stand here, let's go and take a look."
Shen Yinqiu naturally wanted to go and see it.
She hummed loudly and mustered up the courage to say, "It's all because of me looking for the money bag that got you all in trouble.
Let's go together, husband."
After she finished speaking, she didn't forget to ask for Wan Qiyan's opinion. .
Naturally, Wan Qiyan had no objection.
Looking at Shen Yinqiu's brows with tenderness, others felt inexplicably relieved and emboldened when they saw the couple's closeness.
As they approached step by step, Shen Yinqiu became more and more focused.

Suddenly a man said: "Wait a minute."
When everyone turned around, he held a stick and handed it to the person in front: "It's better if you hold this."
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
Even Shen Yinqiu was scared just now.
The man approached the lake with a stick and a lantern in hand.
There were still three steps to go before everyone stopped.
There are half-person-high railings around the lake to prevent tourists from falling into the lake.
Shen Yinqiu had already seen the hair, and her bad suspicions had been established.
Looking at Wan Qiyan, he looked very calm, and she was speechless.
The man walking at the front was trembling and didn't dare to touch it with a stick, but everyone already had a guess based on its shape.
It's not that I'm not afraid, but I'm frozen and no one dares to move.
Wan Qiyan took two steps forward, took the stick in his hand, and poked the swollen object through the guardrail.
There was a deathly silence.
He took back his stick and looked at everyone with pale faces and said, "It's a corpse."
In an instant, darkness fell, leaving only Shen Yinqiu standing behind Wan Qiyan.
They all retreated behind them and huddled together.
Shen Yinqiu stared at the lanterns dimly.
They retreated too fast.
Maybe they should be rewarded for not screaming.
No, maybe she should scream twice Thinking about it, she opened her mouth and said, "Ahhh."
She only had time to scream before she was hugged into someone's arms.
"What's wrong?
You're afraid."
Wan Qiyan thought in her heart.
This girl's reaction to fear was too slow.
Shen Yinqiu buried herself in his arms and took a deep breath, then quickly pulled him away from the lake and said, "I think as a girl, I should scream twice when this happens.
Are you right?
But you interrupted me, Next time, remember that I am a girl, I will scream in fear."
Wan Qiyan: "When you say these words, you are no longer afraid."
"Don't bother me."
Shen Yinqiu led him back to where those people were.
Strangely, the few people who heard the conversation between the two of them kept retreating as they approached.
Shen Yinqiu: "" She looked at Wan Qiyan resentfully and said, "Look, because I didn't show fear, they are all afraid of me."
"It's not the same thing.
They were afraid that I would stab the corpse so calmly just now."
Wan Qiyan said.
Now the four people holding the lanterns were a little uneasy and tried to calm down: "Who are you two?"
Shen Yinqiu pointed at himself and said seriously: "Mortal."
Everyone: "" Wan Qiyan could only wake her up and said: "Be good, business is important."
"Well, let's go back and report to the official first."
Shen Yinqiu took his hand and continued to approach them.
This time they didn't move away.
Shen Yinqiu sighed: "They said you don't want Qingzhu and the others to leave.
Now this is a bit troublesome.
They It’s not good for us to stay here if we leave, it’s not good for us all to leave and the bodies are blown away.”

"It's okay."
Wan Qiyan took out something from his sleeve and pulled it toward the sky.
The dazzling light flew into the sky with a sharp sound.
"You are really incomparable to the fireworks just now."
Shen Yinqiu looked at the rising light and said.
Wan Qiyan looked at her silently, "This is a signal flare."
"I know I have it too."
Shen Yinqiu said smoothly, and as expected, Wan Qiyan paid close attention to him, "Where did you get it too?"
"I made a slip of the tongue," Shen Yinqiu said with his eyes rolling.
It was so dangerous that he was almost exposed.
She thought that Wan Qiyan would get to the bottom of it, but she didn't expect that he just hummed and stopped asking again.
Maybe he thought it was normal that she wouldn't have it.
Shen Yinqiu breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the eight people holding lanterns and said, "These people need to be interrogated."
In fact, there is no lack of possibility that the murderer is hiding in it.
Wan Qiyan glanced at them one by one.
For some reason, they felt that the person who was gentle and polite just now suddenly became fierce and terrifying.
"Well, please cooperate with the government investigation."
When they heard the word "official", they were a little suspicious and said: "You are from the official" Shen Yinqiu said particularly confidently: "Of course, he and I are both detectives."
Wan Qiyan: ""It turns out that his wife is so easy to tell lies when she opens her eyes.
"That's good, you are from the government, but why should we cooperate with the investigation?
You asked us to come over, so we will encounter these things."
Shen Yinqiu also felt that they had good intentions before and comforted him easily: "I won't lock you up.
I just want to ask you what you are doing here and how you found the body."
This was a normal question, but they all looked embarrassed.
Someone said: "It's none of our business.
It's getting late and we have to go back now."
"Hey" Shen Yinqiu didn't expect that the other party would refuse.
Judging from the fact that they knew she said she was from the government and breathed a sigh of relief, they should have believed in the government.
In the end, they all said unanimously, "Yes, we are going back.
We will never see each other again."
Shen Yinqiu: "" "Here we come."
Wan Qiyan said suddenly.
Shen Yinqiu looked back at him: "What's coming?"
Just as they were about to leave, a dozen figures in black robes descended from the sky and surrounded them in the center.
"Lord" shouted in a low and powerful voice, and Shen Yinqiu suddenly realized that Wan Qiyan's secret manpower was indeed what she said the eldest princess hated him so much.
How could he grow up so big and not have any power at all.
Shen Yinqiu's peace of mind was directly proportional to the panic of those people.
"Who are you and what do you want to do?"
"Cooperate with the investigation."
Wan Qiyan's tone was as quiet as dead water.
Shen Yinqiu also nodded and said, "Is it possible that you are secretly just answering the official's questions?"
“We are just here to watch the fireworks.”
"That's right.
If the official asks you any questions, just answer them truthfully."
Shen Yinqiu said with a smile.

During the stalemate, a young man stood up and said: "Miss, please show mercy and let us go."
Shen Yinqiu looked at him with a confused expression.
The young man gritted his teeth and said, "On this day, what would people think if they knew we were here to enjoy the fireworks?
They are all men."
He lowered his head as he spoke, and then he was quickly hugged by someone.
Bring it back to the crowd.
Shen Yinqiu seemed to understand something and looked at them awkwardly, "I promise not to spread the word.
Just say that you are eight people who made an appointment to come here to hide for peace.
It's not right for eight people to get together as friends."
However, this festival and this location, if they are paired together, it is really easy for people to misunderstand.
The other party seemed a little moved.
Wan Qiyan felt that Shen Yinqiu had said too much to them, so he interrupted: "If you don't cooperate with the investigation, you will be treated as a murder suspect."
The other eight people had no choice but to compromise.
"Go and report to the official."
Wan Qiyan said to a dark figure nearby.
The man disappeared without a sound, which showed his great martial arts skills.
Shen Yinqiu was still counting how many people had come when she saw Wan Qiyan picked up her mask and put it on her, saying, "Are you tired?
I'll send someone to take you back first."
Shen Yinqiu immediately shook his head, "I won't go back."
Because they were far enough away from the lake and the wind direction had changed, the stench was not that strong anymore
