The book-crossing case happened! The villains all want me to go to jail

Chapter 182 The Black Robe Man Being Tortured in the Lower Room of the Auditorium

Zhao Hongzhi first gently turned over the bedding on the bed, his eyes focused and sharp, not missing any wrinkles, trying to find possible hidden objects in them.

Beads of sweat gradually appeared on his forehead and slowly slid down his cheeks, but he did not stop what he was doing. Instead, he looked more attentively.

Zhao Hongzhi carefully checked each of the 300 rooms on the first floor. Every time he entered a room, he would pause at the door and take a deep breath, as if preparing for the detailed search that was about to begin.

During this period, he also communicated with other police officers from time to time about what he had discovered.

"Captain Zhao, there seem to be signs of disturbance here." A French policeman said in broken Chinese.

Zhao Hongzhi walked over quickly, squatted down, and gently touched the mark with his hand, his eyes full of doubt and thought.

I thought to myself:

"Is this a key clue? Or is it just a coincidence?" He said, "Take photos and keep investigating!"

Coming to the second floor, there are the same 300 rooms. Every time Zhao Hongzhi opens a wardrobe, he will first observe the handle of the cabinet door to see if there are any signs of wear or fingerprints.

He carefully checked the inside of every wardrobe, his eyes lingering on every corner, not missing any place where something might be hidden.

"The layout of this room is a bit strange." Xiao Li muttered.

Zhao Hongzhi said as he checked the corner of the wall: "No matter how strange it is, any detail may be the key.

Maybe this strange layout was deliberately created by them to hide something important." At this moment, his heartbeat slightly accelerated, expecting to find something.

In the 200 rooms on the third floor, when Zhao Hongzhi checks the tableware on the dining table, he will gently pick up each piece of tableware and hold it up to the light to see if there are any signs of use or slight scratches.

He brushed his fingers lightly over the edge of the cutlery, wondering, "Is this evidence of their activity? Or is this just normal wear and tear?"

"Everyone, please pay attention to whether there are any marks left on the table." Xiao Wang reminded everyone.

A French policeman took a magnifying glass and observed carefully: "It seems there is a scratch here."

Zhao Hongzhi leaned over to take a look, frowned even more, and said, "Mark it and continue to look for other clues. Don't miss any clue that might be useful."

At this moment, his expression became more serious, knowing that every clue could be the key to a breakthrough.

In the 100 rooms on the fourth floor, when Zhao Hongzhi checks the toilet sinks and shower areas, he touches the inner walls of the sinks with his fingers to feel whether there are any residual water stains or foreign objects.

"Captain Zhao, there are traces of water droplets in the bathing area. It doesn't look like it was there a long time ago." said a Chinese policeman.

Zhao Hongzhi thought for a moment, and a trace of doubt flashed through his mind: "What does this mean?

Has it been used recently or is it just due to the wet weather?

"Collect the samples and go back for testing. Be sure to be careful and don't make any mistakes."

People were busy moving between the rooms, and the entire floor was filled with a tense and focused atmosphere.

When he arrived at the 100 rooms on the fifth floor, Zhao Hongzhi still did not slack off. He carefully searched every drawer. When he opened each drawer, he would first observe the internal structure and wear of the drawer.

His eyes revealed determination and persistence.

"Captain Zhao, I didn't find anything here." A team member shouted.

Zhao Hongzhi responded: "Keep looking, don't be anxious. Sometimes the clues may be hidden very deeply, and we need to be more patient." He took a deep breath and encouraged himself and his teammates.

Finally, on the sixth floor, in Sun’s exclusive residence, the luxurious decoration is amazing.

The faint light shines into the room through the window, adding a mysterious atmosphere to the whole space. Every painting on the wall seems to have a unique meaning.

Zhao Hongzhi carefully observed a painting on the wall. His eyes moved across the picture inch by inch, as if he wanted to find out something from it.

His heartbeat quickened as he wondered, "Could there be a key secret hidden here? Perhaps this painting holds the answer we've been looking for."

"Wow, this is so luxurious." A young policeman couldn't help but say.

Zhao Hongzhi glared at him and said seriously: "Don't be distracted, get to work! We are not here to admire the luxurious decorations, we must focus on finding clues."

Just then, "Captain Zhao, we found half a fingerprint here!" Xiao Li shouted excitedly.

Zhao Hongzhi hurried over, his steps were a little hurried, and he carefully collected fingerprints with tools himself. His hands were shaking slightly, and his heart was full of anticipation:

"Could this be the key to solving the mystery? Hopefully this will give us a breakthrough."

Said: "Collect carefully, don't damage it."

After entering the fingerprint into the database, I found that it seemed to be the fingerprint of a French person.

They immediately contacted his relatives, who said they had not seen him in the past few days and he had not returned home.

Zhao Hongzhi crossed his arms and fell into deep thought. After a moment, anxiety and hope intertwined in his heart: "This is an important clue. We must intensify the investigation and find this person! No matter how many difficulties there are, we can't give up."

Everyone responded in unison: "Yes!"

The investigation is still ongoing, and they will not give up any hope and vow to uncover the truth of this mysterious case.

Zhao Hongzhi and his fellow police officers' faces were filled with fatigue, but their eyes were still determined.

When everyone gathered in the lobby on the first floor without noticing anything,

In an extremely hidden corner, Zhao Hongzhi accidentally found a floor tile that was only slightly different in color from the surrounding walls.

If he hadn't observed extremely carefully, he would not have been able to detect this slight abnormality.

"Everyone come quickly, something might be happening here!" Zhao Hongzhi shouted excitedly, with a slight tremor in his voice.

The team members quickly gathered around, squatted down, gently touched the floor tile with their hands, and examined it carefully.

After some careful research, they determined that there was an unknown space hidden underneath.

However, entering this basement is fraught with difficulties.

Next to the floor tile, there was an almost imperceptible gap in the door, and behind the door was a heavy metal door with an extremely complex combination lock.

The buttons of the combination lock were densely packed, and were equipped with all kinds of strange symbols and indicator lights, which made people dazzled.

"This combination lock is not something we can crack easily. We need to find a professional." Xiao Li frowned and said helplessly.

Zhao Hongzhi nodded, beads of sweat on his forehead slid down his cheeks, and he immediately contacted the police station's technical experts.

When the experts arrived, they couldn't help but gasp and frowned when faced with the complicated combination lock.

Time passed minute by minute, and the expert was concentrating on the cracking work, his fingers tapping quickly on the keyboard, and beads of sweat on his forehead.

Everyone was waiting anxiously on the sidelines, not daring to make a sound.

After a long few hours, the expert's slightly tired voice finally came: "Okay, the password has been cracked!"

But this is only the first level. Behind the door is a narrow and dark passage.

The passage was filled with an old and decayed smell, which made people feel depressed.

In the dim light, I could see that the walls were covered with moss and there were traces of mucus on the ground left by some unknown creature.

Both sides of the passage are filled with various hidden traps, which can trigger fatal dangers if you are not careful.

"Xiao Wang suddenly exclaimed, and saw a sharp arrow shooting out from a small hole in the wall with a sharp whistling sound, and almost hit a team member.

The team member was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, his legs couldn't help but tremble slightly.

The team members held flashlights and moved forward cautiously, each step as light as a cat's for fear of triggering more danger.

The ground under your feet is uneven, full of potholes and protruding stones, and you may fall if you are not careful.

"Watch out for the sky!" someone else shouted. Suddenly, a huge stone slab fell from above. Fortunately, the team members reacted quickly and dodged it in time.

However, just as he dodged the stone slabs, another row of sharp iron nails popped out from the wall, making it impossible to defend against them.

In this way, they struggled forward in this dangerous passage, and every step forward required tremendous effort.

Finally, they successfully passed through the passage. At this time, there was a faint pungent smell of blood in the air, mixed with a foul smell.

Everyone felt nervous and quickened their pace.

Finally, they entered the basement and saw a man in a black robe with his hands and feet tightly tied to a cross. His body was covered with bloody wounds, and blood kept dripping onto the ground, gathering into a small pool.

The corners of the basement were filled with all kinds of strange instruments. Some looked like iron cages with spikes. If a person was locked in them, the spikes would pierce deeply into the body. Some were iron plates covered with serrations, as if they were torture instruments for cutting the human body. There were also huge iron clamps that seemed to be able to easily cut off human limbs.

There are also some terrifying portraits hanging on the wall, which are creepy.

"Fuck!" A police officer couldn't help but swear.

"Hurry, save people!" Zhao Hongzhi shouted, his voice full of urgency.

They quickly rescued the man in black robe, carefully lifted him onto a stretcher, and put him into the ambulance. The ambulance sped straight to the hospital.
