Three people and one ghost solved 43 mysterious cases.

"You mean the murderer will commit the crime in the next two days?" Xu Wenshan asked.

Yao Ruolan said:

According to reasoning, the murderer is a man addicted to gambling. He previously owed 20 yuan.

This shows that he is definitely out of money. After paying back the 20 he got from three murders, he stopped for a while.

But he still had no money, no money. The fastest way he could think of was to continue gambling, hoping to make money through gambling.

In the short term, there may be losses and wins, but now that it has been a month since the three cases, in the long term, gambling money will not end well.

He lost everything again. I guess the murderer must now be red-eyed, smoking, and owing a lot of foreign debt.

Now it is mid-to-late August, and the time to repay the money at the end of the month is very close, so the murderer is starting to look for the target of the next robbery and murder case.

"I'll have my men investigate quickly." Xu Wenshan was about to make a call.

"It's useless." Yao Ruolan said:

If you start investigating from now on, it may not be as fast as the murderer or the murder.

First of all, we just speculated that the murderer might be an air conditioner cleaner.

Even if they are, then these repair and cleaning workers are temporary. They may go door to door to solicit business, and they happen to be called by the contractor, Chen Weng, to clean the air conditioners.

To find out, you need to ask many people one by one, which takes time.

Even if you find the murderer, if he doesn't admit it, there's still nothing you can do.

After all, the murderer did not leave much evidence at the scene. It would be difficult to convict based on shoe prints alone, even if the murder weapon was found.

The murderer must have used potion to wash away the blood on the knife, making it impossible to detect it.

And the fruit knife that committed the crime was too ordinary. Most fruit knives look the same.

"There's more." Yao Ruolan said rigorously:

Whether the murderer is an air-conditioning cleaner is just a theory. It may or may not be the case.

If after checking for a long time, you find that the direction is wrong, and you check again, your time will be wasted.

Yao Ruolan said, "I speculate that the murderer will commit another crime in the next few days, and what we have to do now is to get in front of the murderer, so that he can temporarily give up his thoughts and gain time to investigate the case."

"Tell me what you want me to do." Xu Wenshan said simply and directly. He knew that Yao Ruolan had already thought of a way.

"How many bodies do we have?"

"How many?"

"Yes, are all the bodies of the victims of these three murders there?"

No more. Xu Wenshan thought that a month had passed and the body had long been taken back by the family and cremated.

No, Xu Wenshan suddenly remembered that there was a body still there - the body of the old woman Gina, whose husband who was abroad had not yet returned.

"That's easy to handle." Yao Ruolan smiled mysteriously.

At nine o'clock in the evening, after a busy day's get off work, the salarymen got off work and sat in a tea restaurant with tired faces.

I ordered noodles and frozen lemon tea.

The shops in the market ushered in the golden hour of the day. TVs were placed in the shop windows to attract passersby to stop.

After the children's homework was done and today's housework was completed, the housewives sat on the sofa and turned on the TV.

Grab a ball of yarn and a needle and knit a sweater for the winter that will be here in a few months.

In that era, mobile phones rarely had camera functions and there were no short videos. In that era, Internet cafes had just become popular and there were not many games.

In that era, everyone’s favorite thing to do was watch TV, and the best program was——

At 9:10, Pineapple TV's "Fantasy Sea" program started broadcasting.

This is a variety show that includes supernatural and strange stories. It is broadcast every night for one hour.

In the first four and 10 minutes, some metaphysics experts and celebrity artists will be invited to explain the weird and strange things that have happened in K City recently.

In the last 10 minutes, a homemade supernatural short drama will be played.

Relying on the pursuit of novelty, horror, excitement, metaphysics, and boldness, "Fantasy Sea" is the most watched program in K-city.

What are you going to say tonight?

As a strange "scream" came from the TV, a hand stretched out from the well, and the title in scarlet font followed this iconic promotional video.

The diners in the teahouse, passers-by on the street, and housewives on the sofa all raised their heads and looked at the TV screen.

Tonight's "Fantasy Sea" program starts.

In the studio, there is a circular stage with a beam of light shining in the middle of the stage. The host is a talented writer, wearing a suit and holding a microphone.

"Everyone, everyone must still have memories of these three serial murder cases: the woman hiding the corpse in the village house, the murder case in the unfinished building, and the old man in the yew tree..."

The genius writer used a very clever opening line, "Almost a month has passed since these three cases, but the murderer is still at large. Who is he and where is he? I believe you in front of the TV are as worried as me. Everyone is afraid that the murderer will commit another crime again. Maybe the target of the next case will be me or you."

The backstage staff used the thrilling background music very accurately.

"Such a person must be caught. But how? He is hiding too deep. But don't worry." The genius writer raised his voice, "Tonight, I will let the murderer take action."

These remarks attracted the attention of thousands of TV viewers.

Then, the genius writer made a trick and invited a middle-aged man to the stage. This man was familiar to everyone and was a resident metaphysics expert on the show.

The genius writer asked the master of metaphysics, are there psychics in this world? Simply put, after death, will the soul still float around?

A very silly question.

But the big guy in metaphysics made a "pop" sound, opened the fan in his hand, and said, "I think it's possible."

He said that although a person dies, the brain waves are still there and will stay for a few days. It can also be said that a kind of magnetic field attraction of the deceased is still there. Today's society is very high-tech, and various wireless communication waves are floating around.

Although these radio waves are invisible, they may be combined with the brain waves of the deceased and will always exist around the body of the deceased and at the scene of the crime.

How long will it stay? It’s hard to say, it could be a few days, or it could be dozens of days.

The master of metaphysics coughed lightly and shook his fan to look calmer.

Hey, the metaphysics boss thought to himself, such nonsense should continue to be made up for the sake of program effect.

He continued:

Therefore, when a normal person unintentionally enters a place where there is a lot of resentment, it is actually a place where the electromagnetic field is very strong.

Normal people's brain waves come into contact with "grievance waves" and produce a common frequency.

Then at a certain moment, this normal person will feel like "seeing an illusion" and "seeing a ghost".

"Actually," the metaphysics boss said mysteriously, "everything is metaphysics. If you are interested, you can buy the book I just wrote. The title is on the fan."

The camera soon turned to the talented writer. He held the microphone and said:

After hearing this, you must be full of questions in front of the TV, what will your program do?

Yesterday, I received a call from the husband of the deceased No. 1, Gina. The husband said that since his wife died tragically, he has been dreaming about it every day. He really wants to find the murderer. He hopes that our program team help.

And coincidentally, our program team found a very powerful woman who claimed to be able to talk to and channel the dead.

The master of metaphysics on the side expressed doubts, "Isn't this just asking the rice to chase the spirit? Throw a handful of rice, and then a goddess and ghost will get on you."

"No, no, no," said the genius writer, "The woman we invited is much more powerful than the goddess. She can bring the dead back to life for four minutes."

Of course, if you just say this, neither you nor I will believe it, but now——
