Three people and one ghost solved 43 mysterious cases.

In the evening, Xu Wenshan stood on the beach, drinking wine and smoking.

The case ended and he was given a warning by the serious crime team due to illegal operations. The pursuit of justice resulted in this result.

He drank a bottle of beer and threw it into the sea.

"Xu Wenshan." Hu Muzhen walked over.

The two looked at this sea. They had been here many times holding hands. The sea was vast at night, and the lighthouse in the distance was shining with red searchlight.

Hu Muzhen wanted to pull Xu Wenshan's hand, but Xu Wenshan stretched out his hand and retracted it.

"Do you blame me?" Hu Muzhen asked.

Xu Wenshan shook his head.

He had no reason to blame Hu Muzhen. After he became a policeman and Hu Muzhen became a lawyer, they each understood it.

same question:

If one day Hu Muzhen breaks the law, will Xu Wenshan catch her personally?

Xu Wenshan will.

But now in these two cases, Xu Wenshan was negligent. It is understandable that Hu Muzhen seized this loophole to fight for the interests of her clients.

“I just feel that we are no longer what we used to be,” Xu Wenshan said.

Hu Muzhen took the initiative to hold Xu Wenshan's arm and said, "I haven't changed, I'm just doing a job."

She rested her head on Xu Wenshan's shoulder, "The case is finally over and New Year's Eve is coming soon. Let's take a vacation together and go traveling."

The once-familiar snuggle made Xu Wenshan feel strange and stiff at this moment.

Just as he was about to say something, the pager rang, and the crime team was urgently recalled - a strange mask suicide case happened again.

----

"Monster Mask"

This case did not attract the attention of the police at the beginning.

The first case happened 21 days ago. A man wearing a bull-head mask jumped from a building.

When the police arrive at the crime scene, the person must be dead. I went to the rooftop and found nothing suspicious.

There was surveillance on the rooftop, and the surveillance showed that this man climbed over the railing and jumped down.

The deceased was a terminally ill patient. He judged that he knew he would die soon and did not want to suffer any more pain, so he jumped.

Died on Saturday, eight o'clock in the evening, wearing a bull's head mask.

As for why you wear a mask, it may be for some personal reasons, which is not important.

The police concluded the case as suicide.

.

Unexpectedly, 14 days ago, the second case happened again.

It was still a case of jumping off a building. The deceased was a woman, a stockbroker, and she was wearing a snake-head mask when she died.

The police investigated again and determined it was suicide.

The stock broker used company funds to buy a stock for 16 yuan. The current stock price is 6 yuan.

It is very possible that she could not bear the loss of money and the misappropriation of public funds, unable to fill the gap, and went to a dead end.

As for why she wears a snake head mask?

It may be that he was influenced by the No. 1 terminally ill patient, or he may have some wrong ideas.

This woman happens to be born in the year of Snake. Maybe she thinks that if she dies wearing a mask of her zodiac sign, she will be able to transcend as soon as possible in reincarnation.

The time of death also happened to be Saturday, at eight o'clock in the evening.

The police still concluded the case as suicide.

But at this time, there are already some voices in the media and forums.

Masks have become a topic, and there has been some hype and some metaphysical interpretations, such as whether people can be reincarnated after death? Is there any connection between the soul and the zodiac?

There are a lot of discussions on the bbs, "Will someone die next week?"

.

And in the third week, 7 days ago, Saturday, [-]pm.

A suicide case really happened again. The deceased was a middle-aged man who jumped off the building and wore a pig head mask.

The mask is very special. There is a voice-activated device inside that can play the music of "Requiem".

The police intervened in the investigation and found that the cause of death was suicide and was not suspicious. The middle-aged man found a building and then fell.

This middle-aged man originally lived with his mother and had few friends.

After his mother passed away suddenly, he couldn't accept it. He was a giant baby with no one to take care of him. He became mentally confused and became crazy.

This is most likely the reason why this man committed suicide.

But the police couldn't sit still. Why did they all die wearing masks? And they all choose to do it on Saturday at [-]pm?

After in-depth investigation, it was found that the three deceased persons, the terminally ill patient, the stockbroker, and the middle-aged man, had no connection with each other. Their deaths were all decisions made by themselves.

But such suicides are linked——

There are millions of citizens in K City, and many people are suffering from mental stress. When stressed, they will have negative thoughts of committing suicide.

And now just before the so-called "doomsday", there is a saying that "the world will end on December 12st."

There are many extremist organizations that recruit members and instill in them the ideas of "donating all your money to the organization" and "death to be reborn."

Various factors, coupled with the news exposure of these three suicide cases, will inevitably accelerate the wrong thoughts of those who have suicidal thoughts.

Then, it is possible that the so-called "end of the world" will cause a peak in suicides.

.

At this time, "Saturday Night of Death" had already appeared on the front pages of all newspapers, gossip magazines, and forums.

The police cannot control and interfere, and the press is free. As long as you write this kind of article, people will read it and it will sell well.

The fermentation of the incident went far beyond that. The three deceased were all wearing masks when they died, and they were all of the Chinese zodiac.

So someone made a fuss about the "Death Zodiac Mask". For a while, this kind of "Zodiac" mask with its own requiem pronunciation was particularly popular.

Someone bought it and gave it to his ex-boyfriend.

Someone bought it and mailed it to the boss of the company who fired him.

A bar bought it and used it as a "Mask Fright Night Party" gimmick.

The entire K city is shrouded in a dark, negative, even depressive and terrifying atmosphere.

Every night, citizens are afraid to go out.

Because the streets are full of weird people:

Some are members of various doomsday organizations, each wearing a different mask and shouting, "The earth is about to be destroyed."

Some are gangsters fighting for territory, wearing masks, climbing into cars, putting gasoline in bottles, setting fires, and throwing them into the open space, shouting, "I am the boss of this street."

There are also young people who just find it fun and feel that wearing a mask is awe-inspiring, so they wear a mask and walk on the road.

It was as if many "monsters" suddenly appeared in the whole city, and those masks had their own requiem music.

At night, the children were too scared to sleep at home, and the old man locked the door tightly and sighed.

This is really a strange phenomenon that I have never seen in my life.

.

And just today, Saturday, at [-]pm, the fourth suicide case occurred again.

In an office building, a security guard went on patrol with a flashlight. When he walked to the rooftop, he saw a man in a suit and leather shoes standing on the rooftop with a bulging bulge in his clothes.

The man was holding on to the railing with one hand and a bottle of soju in the other, drinking and muttering to himself, "No more, I have nothing."

There was a briefcase on the floor containing the company's bankruptcy documents.

He really has nothing.

what to do? What will happen to his family? There are old people at the top and young people at the bottom. What will his family’s life be like in the future?

The man in suit sighed in despair. He was slightly fat and trembling as he climbed out of the railing and looked at the night sky, overlooking the ground below, the 45th floor.

Tiny cars, people as tiny as ants.

The security guard noticed it, walked over and said, "Don't be impulsive."

The man said, "Don't come over here!"

The security guard had some experience. He said:

Brother, you must not make a mistake. Death will not solve the problem. Do you think jumping from a building means instant death?

No, you are wrong. Jumping from a building is the most painful way to die. The moment you land, you will not die for a second, you will still be conscious.

But at that time, your hands, feet, and head were like mud, and the blood kept flowing, and the countless pains would be like demons biting and gnawing at every inch of your nerves.

You will suffer unimaginable pain exceeding level [-] and be unable to move. The pain was excruciating.

Keep waiting, waiting for 1 minute or 2 minutes before dying, it really feels like life is worse than death.

Brother, listen to me, don't do this.

Death does not solve the problem. What will your family do if you die? They will be sad and blame you.

.

And this time.

The man in a suit suddenly turned his head and said, "No, if I die, my family will have money and they can live a good life."

The man seemed determined. He took out a dog-head mask from his bulging pocket and put it on his head.

Then he spread his hands and landed on the ground.

With a snap, it was pulpy.

He really suffered unimaginable pain as the security guard said just now.

I can't move, my nerves feel like they are being eaten by thousands of evil insects...

The "eyes" of the dog-head mask were equipped with electronic devices, which suddenly lit up and flashed.

Accompanied by the mask's own "Requiem" sound, it echoed in the depressing K City...
