Bu Tian Gang
Chapter 76
The talisman dangled in front of its eyes, and the other party had no choice but to temporarily stop thinking about escaping, and explained the ins and outs.
This weasel calls itself Sixth Uncle, and his hometown is in the Northeast. He used to be the owner of the inn, that is, the Baojiaxian in the family of He Jia’s aunt. After bringing them to the south, they experienced several upheavals. Some of the family members went abroad, some died of illness, and the population withered. The young juniors grew up under the influence of science. Sneering, the sixth uncle was enshrined in this room of the hostel by his aunt, and was enshrined regularly, and the old man was also asked to help guard the hostel.
A few months ago, He Jia's aunt immigrated overseas, so He Jia left this hostel to take care of. Before leaving, the aunt asked Uncle Six for his opinion. Uncle Six expressed that he didn't want to go abroad, so the aunt told He Jia to keep the hostel. No tenants are allowed to stay in the room. He Jia has vaguely heard some rumors. She doesn't really believe it, but since her aunt told her, she will follow suit. The melons and fruits offered are all top-quality. I'm quite happy.
Uncle Six is not a lazy monster who only eats and doesn't work. Apart from guarding the hotel, he also confuses people and helps attract business.
When Winter Solstice heard this, he suddenly realized: "No wonder the hotel doesn't advertise much, but there are so many guests, so it's all your fault!"
Uncle Six was strongly dissatisfied: "What the hell did I do! They were also looking for a hotel to stay in. The environment here is good and the facilities are good. I just increased their favorability!"
Winter Solstice sneered: "If that's all it is, I'm afraid you haven't used illusions less? Otherwise, why do some people who planned to stay for one night don't want to leave after they come in, and finally it becomes two nights and three nights? There are still rooms You are responsible for all the strange things that happen here all day long, right?"
Weasel muttered: "That's just a trick, it's not murder and arson..."
Dong Zhi could hear his guilty conscience, and said again: "Also, that man almost fell from a building two days ago, and that woman almost had a heart attack, are you to blame!"
The weasel said angrily: "How could I do such a thing, do you think I look like this kind of wolf!"
Dongzhi: "Don't tell me it was just an accident. I saw it with my own eyes. There was something preventing others from rescuing that woman. Who would it be if it wasn't you!"
Weasel: "That's—!"
Its sound stopped abruptly.
Winter Solstice is suspicious: "Who is it?"
The weasel said angrily, "It's not me anyway!"
Winter Solstice: "Even if it's not you, you must know who it is, right?"
This weasel is very cunning, maybe it saw that Dongzhi had no intention of killing it, so it simply tilted its body and fell to the ground with all four feet in the sky, as if you could die as you want.
The talisman array was still there, anyway, it wouldn't be able to run out for a while, and Dong Zhi sat cross-legged on the bed, holding the Changshou sword in his hand.
"It doesn't matter if you don't say it, I might as well tell you, I am from the Special Administration Bureau, and I have the authority to kill monsters like you first and then play later. When the time comes, I will kill you first, and then charge of attempted murder in the hotel will be charged." When it comes to you, no one knows anyway, and I can still be rewarded for meritorious service, how about this idea?"
"Not so good!" Weasel jumped up angrily, and did not pretend to be dead, "You little baby belongs to the Special Administration Bureau! Let me tell you, I have someone in your Special Administration Bureau! I am also related! How dare you move Me, I will call your leader and let him cut you to death!"
Winter Solstice looked skeptical: "Just like you, living in a small hotel in Lucheng, how can you still know people from the Special Administration Bureau?"
The weasel put his hips on his hips and said triumphantly: "Speaking out will scare you to death! You are just here, so go and find out! The capable officer under Director Long of the second group of your General Administration, Wang Chaosheng, is my grandma's eldest brother's wife's cousin's husband cousin!"
winter solstice:……
Seeing the speechless expression on the winter solstice, the weasel became more and more complacent: "How about it, be scared. I said that a wolf with a backstage like me is not something you can afford to provoke. If you are sensible, let me go quickly. I can speak good words for you in front of your leaders!"
Before the words finished, it squeaked and screamed, and jumped three feet high. It turned out that Dong Zhi smashed its body with the scabbard, almost flattening its tail.
"You, you, don't mess around!"
Dong Zhi picked up the phone: "What a coincidence, I also know Wang Chaosheng, call him now, if he doesn't know you, you are dead."
Weasel snorted: "Don't lie to me, how could you know such a big man!"
Dong Zhi picked up the phone and pressed the phone number, and the other party panicked: "What to call, what to do, small things, do you need to trouble the old man!"
"I might as well tell you that I was sent by the General Administration. We all have to do internships at the local level this year. I am the member of the second group you mentioned. I am in the same group as Wang Chaosheng. Our General Administration has performance indicators this year. At least Completing a task is considered a pass, otherwise you have to be dismissed, you are unlucky, just met me." Winter Solstice fooled, "If you are willing to tell me the real culprit, I will let you go, otherwise, I will let you go. I only need to kill you, and then I can go back to work!"
Weasel screamed: "How can you do this, scumbag!"
Winter Solstice spread his hands: "That can't be helped, who told you not to tell me the real murderer, come here, let me stab the sword, and the pain will soon be gone."
Weasel: "I didn't do it, I can't say it!"
Winter Solstice: "Why can't you say it?"
The weasel said nothing.
"Say!" In order to scare it, Dong Zhi slapped the bed hard on purpose, and the other's fluffy body jumped up and down, which was quite joyful.
"I really can't say it! I have been banned, and I will die if I say it. You might as well kill me with a sword!"
The winter solstice is suspicious: "Who restricted you? Isn't this your place?"
The weasel covered his mouth: "I can't say it, I can't say it!"
Winter Solstice said: "Then I'll ask you a question, you just need to nod or shake your head."
He took out the gray cardboard figure.
"Is it related to this?"
Weasel hesitated for a moment, then nodded his head.
Winter Solstice asked again: "Is it related to the Japanese?"
The weasel rolled his eyes wildly, nodded first, then shook his head.
Winter Solstice said angrily, "Is that right?"
Weasel: "I really can't say it! If I say it, I will die!"
Dong Zhi thought for a while, and then asked: "Besides the man who fell from the building, there are also people who almost died of illness, have any accidents happened?"
Weasel subconsciously said: "No, they just came..."
Before it finished speaking, it suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood, and there was a puddle of blood on the white bed sheet.
The winter solstice was startled.
Weasel cried: "I told you, you must believe it or not! I only use illusion to attract people to come in and stay for a few more days, but recently I will be listless and sick if I live here. It's not my fault. I can't say any more about the rest!"
Seeing that it didn't seem to be doing something, Dong Zhi couldn't bear it, and hurriedly said: "Okay, I'll ask two more questions! Is the other party still here?"
Weasel shook his head.
Dongzhi: "Then where did he go?"
Weasel: "I don't know."
Solstice: "What is their purpose?"
Weasel: "I don't know...that's the third question!"
Dong Zhi rolled his eyes in his heart, and began to flicker: "Do you want to enter the Special Administration Bureau? Since you also know Kan Chaosheng, you should know that there are monsters in the Special Administration Bureau. As long as you can help me make a contribution this time, I'll recommend it to the bureau when I turn back, and I'll see Chaosheng's relationship, so I don't worry if you can't get in!"
The weasel seemed a little moved, but he said dejectedly: "But I haven't been able to transform so far, how could the Special Administration Bureau want a monster that can't be transformed!"
Winter Solstice said: "It doesn't matter whether you can get in or not. As long as you have made meritorious service, I can help you apply for a bonus. At that time, you can also give the quota to your descendants. You only need to provide clues, and you don't need to run errands. It couldn't be easier to say!"
The weasel hesitated for a long time, and finally said: "I don't know if it's Japanese, but I've seen this kind of paper in your hand, and that person arranged a lot in the hostel..."
Just after saying this, it spit out another mouthful of blood.
"Okay, okay, I won't ask you anymore!" Dongzhi hurriedly said, he now regrets that he forgot to ask Li Ying or Zhang Song for a few wound medicines before going out. There is nothing to say about the injury effect.
Winter Solstice sorted out all the clues together.
On the surface, the weasel is guarding the hotel and using illusions to attract guests to the hotel. The reason why He Jia and the hotel staff are not affected is because the weasel treats them as his own and does not use illusions on them.
People with ulterior motives discovered this, and set up an ambush here, creating two cases of attempted murder. Judging from the weasel's words, these traps should have been set up not long ago, so there was no time to cause any tragedy, and it happened twice Let him stop the incident.
Thinking of this, his heart skipped a beat.
"Let me ask you, the reason why He Jia is so disgusted with coming here is because you gave her some hint?"
The weasel nodded: "I didn't cast an illusion on her, and then I was afraid that she might be in danger here, so I gave her a little hint and drove her out."
Dong Zhi glared at it: "You know that He Jia must be protected, so aren't the residents here innocent?"
The weasel shrank its neck, knowing that it was wrong, so it didn't dare to speak.
The guest is sick.
Two cases of attempted murder.
Paper man like shikigami.
Dong Zhi frowned, trying to connect these tiny clues.
The weasel peeked at him and flattered him: "What, big brother, can you untie the formation first, I'm bored here!"
Winter Solstice ignored it, biting his hand and thinking divinely.
The weasel didn't give up: "You see, you also know Kan Chaosheng. Speaking of which, we are still relatives, so you just have the heart to watch your sixth uncle suffer here!"
Dongzhi suddenly said: "Lao Liu, let me ask you, does the other party want to absorb the anger or yang energy of these residents?"
The weasel was stunned for a moment, and said angrily, "Don't ask me, I can't tell, I can't even say anything about him!"
Seeing its reaction, Winter Solstice felt that his guess was indistinguishable, and he couldn't help but cheer up, thinking that this was another breakthrough.
"But I have a question. Wouldn't it be safer for the other party to absorb Yang Qi so silently? Why did he attempt to kill someone and draw my attention?" Dong Zhi immediately fell into another confusion, "Could it be that he knew that I was Did you do this on purpose here?"
Weasel whispered: "I probably don't know...he hasn't shown up for several days."
After speaking, another mouthful of blood was spat on the bed sheet.
Although the weasel is small in size and does not spit out much blood, it is enough for it to suffer.
It whimpered and cried: "My mouth is cheap, I will never say it again!"
Dong Zhi twitched the corners of his mouth and continued to speculate.
"That person didn't show up for a few days, and he set up a shikigami here. His original intention was to use your illusion to take the opportunity to absorb the yang energy of the residents, but two days in a row almost killed someone. Uh... Could it be the yang energy absorbed by those shikigami? Too much, I have consciousness, make my own decisions, and can’t wait for such a long stream of yang energy to be extracted, so I want to collect it quickly by killing people? Master has said that shikigami and puppets have the same effect, and a clever onmyoji or It's not out of the question that the puppeteer will breathe life into them, turning them into living creatures."
Not only that, but Long Shen also gave a very famous example at that time. After Nezha cut the bones back to his father and the flesh to return to his mother, his limbs were incomplete and his life was lost. His master Taiyi Zhenren used lotus leaves and lotus roots to reshape his physical body. .This is naturally a myth to the ears of ordinary people, but it is not a fantasy to practitioners.To put it bluntly, it is to inject life soul or yang energy into the props to make them into living beings.
Dongzhi said: "Well, I'll let you go first, anyway, you are the Baojiaxian here, you can't escape if you want to, and I don't need you to give any clues, but if he comes again, you must notify me as soon as possible. "
The weasel cried and said, "I can't beat him..."
Winter Solstice said: "If you agree to tip off the news, I will go and ask you about the method of seeing the tide's biomorphic form."
The weasel's eyes lit up, and then he languished again: "He was born as a dragon, and there is only a thin line between him and a dragon. I can't compare with him..."
Winter Solstice: "Even if you can't compare to Jiao, you should still be comparable to Willow. I have a colleague who can transform into Willow. He can do it. Why can't you?"
Weasel: "Really?"
Winter Solstice: "What are you lying to, I don't want you to deal with that person, as soon as he appears, just tell me immediately!"
The weasel struggled for a long time, and finally agreed reluctantly.
Winter Solstice left him his phone and told it to remember to call, so he removed the talisman, and the weasel scurried away, not knowing where it went.
There were pools of blood on the bed sheets in the room, and there was a hole left by the long guard sword in the wall. Those who didn't know thought what he was doing in this room just now. After looking around for a week during the winter solstice, he realized this problem belatedly.
"Take care of the traces in the room yourself, don't make people suspicious!"
The weasel didn't say anything, and I don't know if I heard it.
Dong Zhi felt a little headache when he thought that there might be deadly traps hidden in other places in the hotel.
It is impossible for him alone to find out all the shikigami in the hotel, and he might even scare the enemy.
After thinking about it, he still picked up the phone and called Mu Duo.
"Winter Solstice, what's the matter?" The phone was connected quickly, and Mu Duo's doubtful voice came from the other end.
It is difficult to explain this matter clearly in a few words on the phone, Dongzhi said: "Mu Duo, where are you now, I have something very important to report to you, is it convenient?"
Mu Duo couldn't help but glance at Yan Nuo when he heard the words.
On their side, the case of annihilation and dismemberment has encountered a bottleneck.
The police were tracking down the whereabouts of Huang Wendong's mistress. To be on the safe side, Yan Nuo and the others were called in, but they failed. They went to the house where the mistress was hiding in the informant, but found that the other party was gone.
Of course, the case must continue to be investigated, and the people must continue to search, but Yan Nuo and others have been busy for a few days and found nothing, so they feel frustrated.
Mu Duo knew that Yan Nuo didn't like the participation of the winter solstice, because the office had a newcomer the year before last, but instead of being able to help, he also made a mess of things, and the person was finally transferred away, and Yan Nuo and the others have also treated each other since then. The newcomer didn't like him very much, let alone a newcomer with a deep background, the disciple of the deputy director of the General Administration. It is said that the deputy director Long accepted such a disciple, so one can imagine how much he will value pampering.
According to Yan Nuo's experience, this kind of newcomer with a background cannot be said to be incapable, but he must be a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, has an impulsive temper and easily causes trouble, is arrogant and does not take the enemy seriously, and you can't scold him if you scold him. You can't beat him, you can only confess the person and let him stand aside, don't let him cause any trouble, if he has self-knowledge, it would be better to ask him to leave.
However, Mu Duo had a good impression of the winter solstice, and he also felt that it was not good to hit people's enthusiasm repeatedly, so he reported an address and said you should come here.
The winter solstice arrived soon, and Yan Nuo knew that Mu Duo had called someone here on his own initiative, so he couldn't help but secretly glared at her.
"Brother Yan, I know you have something important to do, and I don't want to disturb you, but something happened on my side."
He gave a brief account of the hotel and the weasel.
Xiao Qi, who was more impatient, couldn't help but said: "I'm afraid that weasel didn't do these things, but it was afraid of your revenge, so it fabricated an enemy out of thin air!"
"Probably not, because I found this, it looks like the shikigami used by Onmyoji. And according to that Baojiaxian, there are many more in the hotel. It is difficult for me to find out all the others, and I am afraid It alarmed the other party." Dong Zhi handed them the piece of paper.
Yan Nuo frowned and said: "In this case, we can only form an array to surround the hotel first, and then catch the turtle, but now our case is at a critical stage, the police may find Huang Wendong's mistress at any time, we really can't leave .”
Winter Solstice hurriedly said: "It doesn't matter, I understand your difficulties, I can set up an formation, but I can't guarantee everything is safe by myself, so I want to report to the East China Branch and ask them to send someone to help, okay ?"
The three of Yan Nuo looked at each other, they didn't expect the newcomers to be so impatient, they couldn't wait to solve a big case within a few days of their arrival.
Xiao Qi vetoed his proposal, and his tone was not very good: "No! When encountering a problem, what's the point of going to the higher-ups without thinking about solving it by yourself first? Just keep an eye on the hotel first, and just call us if you have any problems. Already!"
Winter Solstice disagrees: "The enemy is hiding in the dark and will appear at any time. I asked Baojiaxian to notify me, but I am also responsible for its life. If the other party is really an onmyoji, he must have come prepared. Dang, I can't solve it alone, it will be too late to notify you!"
His tone was not as aggressive as Xiao Qi's, but equally firm.
Mu Duo smoothed things over: "If not, I'll go and see it with you."
Winter Solstice nodded: "Then please trouble Sister Mu Duo. Brother Yan, this matter is a bit strange, I still hope to report it to the higher authorities, so that we can be fully prepared."
Xiao Qi was angry: "Are you an unweaned baby? This is not your kindergarten. If you want to report, go back to your headquarters!"
Yan Nuo shouted: "Xiao Qi!"
It's not for no reason that Xiao Qi got angry at the winter solstice.
Before the winter solstice came, Mu Duo proposed to report the dismemberment case to the higher authorities, because now all the evidence showed that Huang Wendong's death was very suspicious, as if caused by some illusion before his death.But Xiao Qi and Yan Nuo disagreed, because once they reported it, it meant that they admitted that they were incompetent and unable to solve the matter independently. Last time, they were criticized by the higher-ups because of their ineffective handling of a case. If you fail, you will easily refuse to ask for help from above.
There is no need for a newcomer to know about this kind of "family scandal", Yan Nuo lowered his tone: "I know, I will consider this matter as appropriate."
Winter Solstice: "Brother Yan..."
Yan Nuo raised his hand, motioning for him to stop talking.
"The situation is unknown now, and it's useless to report hastily. How about this, Mu Duo is with you. You go back to the hotel and have a look. We'll talk about it later if there's anything wrong."
Dong Zhi found that the other party didn't quite believe what he said, or in other words, Xiao Qi felt that he was eager to make contributions and exaggerated, and felt that the reality was not as serious as he said. Thinking of this, Dong Zhi couldn't help but feel a little helpless.
He also finally understood why the General Administration asked them to come to the office one by one to practice. This is obviously to exercise their ability to deal with people, because everyone has different ideas, and when all kinds of considerations are put together, it is easy to mess up one thing. .
Like now, there are only four people including him in the Lucheng office, but they still can't agree.
Winter Solstice didn't want to have a deadlock with them when they first came, and he didn't want to take the blame when things got out of hand, so he couldn't help but tactfully said: "Brother Yan, I know you must have more experience than me, but I In Changbai Mountain and Yinchuan, I encountered Japanese twice, and this time there was something suspected of shikigami, maybe there is some connection between them.”
Yan Nuo said seriously: "Are you sure this is a Shikigami?"
Dong Zhi was taken aback for a moment, then hesitated and said, "It should be."
Yan Nuo: "So, you can't be sure. If people from the sub-bureau come over and it turns out that it was just a false alarm, can you take the responsibility?"
Dong Zhi thought for a while, and said affirmatively: "I found out about the hotel. If there is any responsibility, I will take it."
Xiao Qi was annoyed: "Are you here to bear the burden? You are a newcomer, what burden do you have! Why don't you want us to take the blame with you!"
The other party is Long Shen's disciple after all, and Yan Nuo didn't want to embarrass him too much, so he said: "Well, I will explain the situation to the branch office as soon as possible in the next two days. As for whether to send someone, it's up to them to decide. Go to the hotel and have a look."
Winter Solstice couldn't hold on any longer, so he could only nod his head: "Then I'll trouble Sister Mu Duo."
As soon as he and Mu Duo left, Xiao Qi couldn't help curling his lips: "This kid is crazy for wanting credit, and he just wanted to make something out of it within two days of coming here!"
Yan Nuo said: "Don't do this, after all, he is Long Shen's disciple. If you say something in front of Long Ju, you won't be able to eat it and walk away."
Xiao Qi snorted coldly: "So I don't understand why the higher-ups assigned him to us. Shouldn't the director's disciple go directly to the branch office? Does bullying the three of us have no background?"
Yan Nuo knew that he had been brooding about helping the newcomers take the blame the year before, so he changed the subject: "Okay, okay, he is still obedient now, he doesn't make his own decisions, and Mu Duo is watching him! Huang Wendong Do you have any clue about the case?"
Xiao Qi scratched his hair irritably: "If his mistress is really a head-down master, she might do this kind of thing without anyone noticing, but it will be difficult for us to catch her in this way, why don't people check it out?" The current Southeast Asian immigrants?"
Yan Nuo said: "I've already told Team Zhou, but it's not easy to check, in case someone forges a document, or goes to a nearby province..."
The phone rang in due time.
I don't know what was said on the other end of the phone, Xiao Qi saw his face suddenly changed, and his heart was also raised.
Yan Nuo hung up the phone and said to him: "The whereabouts of that mistress have been found."
Xiao Qi was overjoyed, thinking that this is really another village.
"Then shall we go over now?"
Yan Nuo sighed: "The woman is dead."
Xiao Qi lost his voice: "No way! How did he die!"
Huang Wendong's mistress was found dead in a house in a high-end community. According to investigations, the head of the house was Bai Xiangmei, who was Huang Wendong's mistress herself.
When Yan Nuo and Xiao Qi arrived at the scene of the crime, the forensic doctor had already inspected it, and the body had not been removed to wait for Yan Nuo and them.
"Preliminary judgment now shows that she should have suffered a sudden onset and died suddenly. She was sleeping when she died, and she died before she had time to take the medicine. Other than that, there was no trace of trauma." Captain Zhou of the police introduced the case to them. .
Yan Nuo and Xiao Qi looked at the corpse for a while, looked at each other, and shook their heads, expressing that they didn't see any problem.
But Captain Zhou found many problems here.
"We couldn't find her medical records or drugs for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in this house, but we found that there were traces of another man in this house."
Yan Nuo: "Huang Wendong?"
Captain Zhou shook his head: "According to the feedback from the residents in the community, they have all seen a young man coming in and out of the deceased several times. Judging from the appearance description, it should not be Huang Wendong. We have collected all the men's items here and are ready to Go back and get your fingerprints."
Yan Nuo's heart skipped a beat: "Where are Bai Xiangmei's belongings, check to see if there are any missing!"
Captain Zhou said: "I've checked, there are several cards, and 10,000+ cash. I still don't know what the relationship between that person and Bai Xiangmei is, and whether he ran away with the money."
It's all too coincidental.
An accident happened to Huang Wendong's family. They just found out that the mistress was in trouble, and the mistress also had an accident.
Whether Yan Nuo Xiaoqi or Captain Zhou, no one believed that such a coincidence really happened.
But the chaotic and trivial clues also made them irritated.
This kind of extermination and dismemberment case has a bad influence. Now that the Internet is developed, some people have already discussed it on the Internet.
"The corpse will be taken back for an autopsy, fingerprints will be taken, and the identities of those who interacted with Bai Xiangmei will be checked, etc. All the results may not come out until two or three days at the earliest."
Yan Nuo asked Captain Zhou: "Do you have any inferences about this case now?"
Captain Zhou didn't hide it from him: "Bai Xiangmei is unemployed and relies entirely on Huang Wendong's supply for her livelihood, but recently we discovered that she opened a new bank account and transferred most of the money to her. It can be preliminarily inferred that she probably had a boyfriend outside and wanted to get rid of Huang Wendong. More importantly, before you came just now, we found a new clue in this room."
He beckoned to his subordinates and took a transparent plastic bag.
Yan Nuo: "Sleeping pills?"
Captain Zhou nodded: "It's the same ingredient as the sleeping pills left in Huang Wendong's wife and children."
Yan Nuo was startled, and looked at Xiao Qi in blank dismay.
Bai Xiangmei was indeed related to the death of Huang Wendong's family!
But Bai Xiangmei was already dead, and it might have been a sudden death.
The thread was broken again.
Although there is no autopsy yet, Yan Nuo has a premonition that the cause of Bai Xiangmei's death may not be found out, and that mysterious man may also disappear without a trace.
As a result, the case has become unsolved.
Thinking of this, the anxiety in Yan Nuo's heart became more intense.
He glanced at Captain Zhou, and the other party had a similar expression on his face. Obviously, what Yan Nuo thought of, Captain Zhou also thought of.
Xiao Qi is a person who refuses to give up easily, so he said: "The body should be sent for an autopsy soon, why not, let's follow her and see if we can find anything on her body?"
That's the only way to go, Yan Nuo nodded in agreement.
Captain Zhou said: "Man, we are stepping up the search now, but the monitoring has not found anything so far. We can only ask people to recover it based on the dictation of the residents of the community. Today will definitely not come out with results."
The corpse and some relics were transported to the forensic identification center. Captain Zhou invited Yan Nuo and Xiao Qi to eat, but everyone had no appetite and took a few bites in a hurry. Team Zhou wanted to go back and continue to follow up, while Yan Nuo and Xiao Qi received Mu Duo. phone.
Mu Duo said that they haven't found any other shikigami in the hotel for the time being, Dong Zhi opened a room for her in the hotel, and she will stay there to rest at night, and Yan Nuo exchanged the situation here with her.
Although Xiao Qi didn't answer the phone, he could probably guess about Yan Nuo's words. When Yan Nuo hung up the phone, he couldn't help but say, "I'm just saying that newcomers are unreliable! Hearing what he said was hype, Nothing happened!"
Yan Nuo felt irritable and didn't want to say anything, Xiao Qi had no choice but to keep his mouth shut.
At eight o'clock in the evening, they came to the forensic identification center.
The forensic doctor and his assistants were ready, and just after shaving the deceased, Yan Nuo suddenly said: "Wait!"
He walked to the dissecting table, bent down and looked at it carefully for a few seconds: "Xiao Qi, come and have a look."
Xiao Qi didn't know why, so he imitated Yan Nuo's posture and looked at the top of the dead man's head.
Yan Nuo said: "Baihui acupoint."
There was a bleeding point there, a little smaller than a grain of rice, and I couldn't find it without looking closely, but it was just right at the Baihui point.
Yan Nuo asked the forensic doctor to ease the autopsy, saying that they had to observe the corpse again tonight, and the Special Administrative Bureau also had the same right to participate in decision-making in this case. Naturally, the forensic doctor had no objection, and went out first with his assistant.
With this bleeding spot as an introduction, the two of them checked the corpse thoroughly again.
Without clothes and hair, the dead body was naked, and the wound marks on his body were clear at a glance.
Yan Nuo and Xiao Qi soon discovered that there were exactly the same bleeding spots on the soles of the left and right feet and the palms of the left and right hands of the deceased.
If you don't observe carefully, it is easy to think that it is just a blood mole, but the blood moles on the left and right hands and feet are almost in the same position, which is impossible to be a coincidence.
"What kind of killing method is this?" Xiao Qi frowned.
Yan Nuo racked his brains, but in the end he could only shake his head.
"Could it be... bloodletting to attract souls? I heard from my master that there seemed to be such a crooked method before, but I haven't heard of it for a long time now."
Yan Nuo was born in the Danfeng sect, which is a little-known sect with few people, Yan Nuo is considered the most promising disciple in the sect.Of course, Xiao Qi and Mu Duo don't have any background in the big school. Because of the similar background, the three hit it off right away, and the cooperation is quite tacit.
For this reason, newcomers who have no similar growth backgrounds like Winter Solstice will have a faint sense of repulsion, but it is not to mention exclusion and suppression.
The two discussed for a long time and proposed many possibilities, but in the end there were no results.
Xiao Qi sneered: "Maybe in the end it will be like what that kid said, let the higher-ups send someone to help."
Yan Nuo didn't want to get such a result, it would only prove that they were useless.
What's the point of keeping a useless office?
Many practitioners can't stand the rules of the Special Administrative Bureau, but there are also people who are willing to do so. Yan Nuo likes the excitement of rolling around in the secular world. He doesn't deny that he has a utilitarian desire for promotion, but he has done a few things recently. Things didn't go well, and he had to start doubting his ability to work.
"I'm going down to buy a pack of cigarettes, do you want to bring something?"
Xiao Qi waved his hand: "No, I'll see what else is found in the corpse, you go!"
After Yan Nuo left, Xiao Qi paced back and forth in the dissecting room. The people outside had already left work, and there were corpses in the dissecting room except him. The bright lights did not give people a warm feeling, on the contrary, it was more bleak and empty, as if Those urban ghost stories that are enough to scare children into tears in the midnight dream.
But Xiao Qi didn't feel anything, he was a cultivator after all, if he didn't even dare to stay in this kind of place, it would be ridiculous to spread the word.
He was just as irritable as Yan Nuo, his eyes wandered around unconsciously, and suddenly saw some of the relics on the table next to him.
The clothes were tested, and the plastic bags contained some daily necessities, as well as some small items whose uses were unclear.
Xiao Qi picked them up one by one, casually, still thinking about the technique of bloodletting to lure souls in his mind, and his eyes suddenly stopped on the plastic bag in his hand.
Inside was a small bell.
A very ordinary bronze bell, the size of half a palm, the workmanship is not rough, but it is not exquisite, it should be a kind of handicraft sold in the shop outside.
Xiao Qi remembered that Team Zhou had said that this bell was what Bai Xiangmei was holding in her hand before she died.
What are you doing grabbing a bell before you die? Could it be that the bell was hanging somewhere and she tore it off?
Xiao Qi was puzzled, and just looked at it through the bag.
Then he heard a crisp sound.
ding - ding -
Xiao Qi lowered his head involuntarily, the bell was lying quietly in his palm, where did it make a sound?
ding - ding -
The crisp bells reverberate far away, like camel bells on the ancient road, one sound is very regular.
But Xiao Qi didn't have so many literati daydreams, he just felt the hairs all over his body stand on end.
In the middle of the night, there was almost no one outside, so where did the bell come from?
Outside the glass door, the lights in the aisle flickered on and off, as if someone had come quietly.
"Who!"
This weasel calls itself Sixth Uncle, and his hometown is in the Northeast. He used to be the owner of the inn, that is, the Baojiaxian in the family of He Jia’s aunt. After bringing them to the south, they experienced several upheavals. Some of the family members went abroad, some died of illness, and the population withered. The young juniors grew up under the influence of science. Sneering, the sixth uncle was enshrined in this room of the hostel by his aunt, and was enshrined regularly, and the old man was also asked to help guard the hostel.
A few months ago, He Jia's aunt immigrated overseas, so He Jia left this hostel to take care of. Before leaving, the aunt asked Uncle Six for his opinion. Uncle Six expressed that he didn't want to go abroad, so the aunt told He Jia to keep the hostel. No tenants are allowed to stay in the room. He Jia has vaguely heard some rumors. She doesn't really believe it, but since her aunt told her, she will follow suit. The melons and fruits offered are all top-quality. I'm quite happy.
Uncle Six is not a lazy monster who only eats and doesn't work. Apart from guarding the hotel, he also confuses people and helps attract business.
When Winter Solstice heard this, he suddenly realized: "No wonder the hotel doesn't advertise much, but there are so many guests, so it's all your fault!"
Uncle Six was strongly dissatisfied: "What the hell did I do! They were also looking for a hotel to stay in. The environment here is good and the facilities are good. I just increased their favorability!"
Winter Solstice sneered: "If that's all it is, I'm afraid you haven't used illusions less? Otherwise, why do some people who planned to stay for one night don't want to leave after they come in, and finally it becomes two nights and three nights? There are still rooms You are responsible for all the strange things that happen here all day long, right?"
Weasel muttered: "That's just a trick, it's not murder and arson..."
Dong Zhi could hear his guilty conscience, and said again: "Also, that man almost fell from a building two days ago, and that woman almost had a heart attack, are you to blame!"
The weasel said angrily: "How could I do such a thing, do you think I look like this kind of wolf!"
Dongzhi: "Don't tell me it was just an accident. I saw it with my own eyes. There was something preventing others from rescuing that woman. Who would it be if it wasn't you!"
Weasel: "That's—!"
Its sound stopped abruptly.
Winter Solstice is suspicious: "Who is it?"
The weasel said angrily, "It's not me anyway!"
Winter Solstice: "Even if it's not you, you must know who it is, right?"
This weasel is very cunning, maybe it saw that Dongzhi had no intention of killing it, so it simply tilted its body and fell to the ground with all four feet in the sky, as if you could die as you want.
The talisman array was still there, anyway, it wouldn't be able to run out for a while, and Dong Zhi sat cross-legged on the bed, holding the Changshou sword in his hand.
"It doesn't matter if you don't say it, I might as well tell you, I am from the Special Administration Bureau, and I have the authority to kill monsters like you first and then play later. When the time comes, I will kill you first, and then charge of attempted murder in the hotel will be charged." When it comes to you, no one knows anyway, and I can still be rewarded for meritorious service, how about this idea?"
"Not so good!" Weasel jumped up angrily, and did not pretend to be dead, "You little baby belongs to the Special Administration Bureau! Let me tell you, I have someone in your Special Administration Bureau! I am also related! How dare you move Me, I will call your leader and let him cut you to death!"
Winter Solstice looked skeptical: "Just like you, living in a small hotel in Lucheng, how can you still know people from the Special Administration Bureau?"
The weasel put his hips on his hips and said triumphantly: "Speaking out will scare you to death! You are just here, so go and find out! The capable officer under Director Long of the second group of your General Administration, Wang Chaosheng, is my grandma's eldest brother's wife's cousin's husband cousin!"
winter solstice:……
Seeing the speechless expression on the winter solstice, the weasel became more and more complacent: "How about it, be scared. I said that a wolf with a backstage like me is not something you can afford to provoke. If you are sensible, let me go quickly. I can speak good words for you in front of your leaders!"
Before the words finished, it squeaked and screamed, and jumped three feet high. It turned out that Dong Zhi smashed its body with the scabbard, almost flattening its tail.
"You, you, don't mess around!"
Dong Zhi picked up the phone: "What a coincidence, I also know Wang Chaosheng, call him now, if he doesn't know you, you are dead."
Weasel snorted: "Don't lie to me, how could you know such a big man!"
Dong Zhi picked up the phone and pressed the phone number, and the other party panicked: "What to call, what to do, small things, do you need to trouble the old man!"
"I might as well tell you that I was sent by the General Administration. We all have to do internships at the local level this year. I am the member of the second group you mentioned. I am in the same group as Wang Chaosheng. Our General Administration has performance indicators this year. At least Completing a task is considered a pass, otherwise you have to be dismissed, you are unlucky, just met me." Winter Solstice fooled, "If you are willing to tell me the real culprit, I will let you go, otherwise, I will let you go. I only need to kill you, and then I can go back to work!"
Weasel screamed: "How can you do this, scumbag!"
Winter Solstice spread his hands: "That can't be helped, who told you not to tell me the real murderer, come here, let me stab the sword, and the pain will soon be gone."
Weasel: "I didn't do it, I can't say it!"
Winter Solstice: "Why can't you say it?"
The weasel said nothing.
"Say!" In order to scare it, Dong Zhi slapped the bed hard on purpose, and the other's fluffy body jumped up and down, which was quite joyful.
"I really can't say it! I have been banned, and I will die if I say it. You might as well kill me with a sword!"
The winter solstice is suspicious: "Who restricted you? Isn't this your place?"
The weasel covered his mouth: "I can't say it, I can't say it!"
Winter Solstice said: "Then I'll ask you a question, you just need to nod or shake your head."
He took out the gray cardboard figure.
"Is it related to this?"
Weasel hesitated for a moment, then nodded his head.
Winter Solstice asked again: "Is it related to the Japanese?"
The weasel rolled his eyes wildly, nodded first, then shook his head.
Winter Solstice said angrily, "Is that right?"
Weasel: "I really can't say it! If I say it, I will die!"
Dong Zhi thought for a while, and then asked: "Besides the man who fell from the building, there are also people who almost died of illness, have any accidents happened?"
Weasel subconsciously said: "No, they just came..."
Before it finished speaking, it suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood, and there was a puddle of blood on the white bed sheet.
The winter solstice was startled.
Weasel cried: "I told you, you must believe it or not! I only use illusion to attract people to come in and stay for a few more days, but recently I will be listless and sick if I live here. It's not my fault. I can't say any more about the rest!"
Seeing that it didn't seem to be doing something, Dong Zhi couldn't bear it, and hurriedly said: "Okay, I'll ask two more questions! Is the other party still here?"
Weasel shook his head.
Dongzhi: "Then where did he go?"
Weasel: "I don't know."
Solstice: "What is their purpose?"
Weasel: "I don't know...that's the third question!"
Dong Zhi rolled his eyes in his heart, and began to flicker: "Do you want to enter the Special Administration Bureau? Since you also know Kan Chaosheng, you should know that there are monsters in the Special Administration Bureau. As long as you can help me make a contribution this time, I'll recommend it to the bureau when I turn back, and I'll see Chaosheng's relationship, so I don't worry if you can't get in!"
The weasel seemed a little moved, but he said dejectedly: "But I haven't been able to transform so far, how could the Special Administration Bureau want a monster that can't be transformed!"
Winter Solstice said: "It doesn't matter whether you can get in or not. As long as you have made meritorious service, I can help you apply for a bonus. At that time, you can also give the quota to your descendants. You only need to provide clues, and you don't need to run errands. It couldn't be easier to say!"
The weasel hesitated for a long time, and finally said: "I don't know if it's Japanese, but I've seen this kind of paper in your hand, and that person arranged a lot in the hostel..."
Just after saying this, it spit out another mouthful of blood.
"Okay, okay, I won't ask you anymore!" Dongzhi hurriedly said, he now regrets that he forgot to ask Li Ying or Zhang Song for a few wound medicines before going out. There is nothing to say about the injury effect.
Winter Solstice sorted out all the clues together.
On the surface, the weasel is guarding the hotel and using illusions to attract guests to the hotel. The reason why He Jia and the hotel staff are not affected is because the weasel treats them as his own and does not use illusions on them.
People with ulterior motives discovered this, and set up an ambush here, creating two cases of attempted murder. Judging from the weasel's words, these traps should have been set up not long ago, so there was no time to cause any tragedy, and it happened twice Let him stop the incident.
Thinking of this, his heart skipped a beat.
"Let me ask you, the reason why He Jia is so disgusted with coming here is because you gave her some hint?"
The weasel nodded: "I didn't cast an illusion on her, and then I was afraid that she might be in danger here, so I gave her a little hint and drove her out."
Dong Zhi glared at it: "You know that He Jia must be protected, so aren't the residents here innocent?"
The weasel shrank its neck, knowing that it was wrong, so it didn't dare to speak.
The guest is sick.
Two cases of attempted murder.
Paper man like shikigami.
Dong Zhi frowned, trying to connect these tiny clues.
The weasel peeked at him and flattered him: "What, big brother, can you untie the formation first, I'm bored here!"
Winter Solstice ignored it, biting his hand and thinking divinely.
The weasel didn't give up: "You see, you also know Kan Chaosheng. Speaking of which, we are still relatives, so you just have the heart to watch your sixth uncle suffer here!"
Dongzhi suddenly said: "Lao Liu, let me ask you, does the other party want to absorb the anger or yang energy of these residents?"
The weasel was stunned for a moment, and said angrily, "Don't ask me, I can't tell, I can't even say anything about him!"
Seeing its reaction, Winter Solstice felt that his guess was indistinguishable, and he couldn't help but cheer up, thinking that this was another breakthrough.
"But I have a question. Wouldn't it be safer for the other party to absorb Yang Qi so silently? Why did he attempt to kill someone and draw my attention?" Dong Zhi immediately fell into another confusion, "Could it be that he knew that I was Did you do this on purpose here?"
Weasel whispered: "I probably don't know...he hasn't shown up for several days."
After speaking, another mouthful of blood was spat on the bed sheet.
Although the weasel is small in size and does not spit out much blood, it is enough for it to suffer.
It whimpered and cried: "My mouth is cheap, I will never say it again!"
Dong Zhi twitched the corners of his mouth and continued to speculate.
"That person didn't show up for a few days, and he set up a shikigami here. His original intention was to use your illusion to take the opportunity to absorb the yang energy of the residents, but two days in a row almost killed someone. Uh... Could it be the yang energy absorbed by those shikigami? Too much, I have consciousness, make my own decisions, and can’t wait for such a long stream of yang energy to be extracted, so I want to collect it quickly by killing people? Master has said that shikigami and puppets have the same effect, and a clever onmyoji or It's not out of the question that the puppeteer will breathe life into them, turning them into living creatures."
Not only that, but Long Shen also gave a very famous example at that time. After Nezha cut the bones back to his father and the flesh to return to his mother, his limbs were incomplete and his life was lost. His master Taiyi Zhenren used lotus leaves and lotus roots to reshape his physical body. .This is naturally a myth to the ears of ordinary people, but it is not a fantasy to practitioners.To put it bluntly, it is to inject life soul or yang energy into the props to make them into living beings.
Dongzhi said: "Well, I'll let you go first, anyway, you are the Baojiaxian here, you can't escape if you want to, and I don't need you to give any clues, but if he comes again, you must notify me as soon as possible. "
The weasel cried and said, "I can't beat him..."
Winter Solstice said: "If you agree to tip off the news, I will go and ask you about the method of seeing the tide's biomorphic form."
The weasel's eyes lit up, and then he languished again: "He was born as a dragon, and there is only a thin line between him and a dragon. I can't compare with him..."
Winter Solstice: "Even if you can't compare to Jiao, you should still be comparable to Willow. I have a colleague who can transform into Willow. He can do it. Why can't you?"
Weasel: "Really?"
Winter Solstice: "What are you lying to, I don't want you to deal with that person, as soon as he appears, just tell me immediately!"
The weasel struggled for a long time, and finally agreed reluctantly.
Winter Solstice left him his phone and told it to remember to call, so he removed the talisman, and the weasel scurried away, not knowing where it went.
There were pools of blood on the bed sheets in the room, and there was a hole left by the long guard sword in the wall. Those who didn't know thought what he was doing in this room just now. After looking around for a week during the winter solstice, he realized this problem belatedly.
"Take care of the traces in the room yourself, don't make people suspicious!"
The weasel didn't say anything, and I don't know if I heard it.
Dong Zhi felt a little headache when he thought that there might be deadly traps hidden in other places in the hotel.
It is impossible for him alone to find out all the shikigami in the hotel, and he might even scare the enemy.
After thinking about it, he still picked up the phone and called Mu Duo.
"Winter Solstice, what's the matter?" The phone was connected quickly, and Mu Duo's doubtful voice came from the other end.
It is difficult to explain this matter clearly in a few words on the phone, Dongzhi said: "Mu Duo, where are you now, I have something very important to report to you, is it convenient?"
Mu Duo couldn't help but glance at Yan Nuo when he heard the words.
On their side, the case of annihilation and dismemberment has encountered a bottleneck.
The police were tracking down the whereabouts of Huang Wendong's mistress. To be on the safe side, Yan Nuo and the others were called in, but they failed. They went to the house where the mistress was hiding in the informant, but found that the other party was gone.
Of course, the case must continue to be investigated, and the people must continue to search, but Yan Nuo and others have been busy for a few days and found nothing, so they feel frustrated.
Mu Duo knew that Yan Nuo didn't like the participation of the winter solstice, because the office had a newcomer the year before last, but instead of being able to help, he also made a mess of things, and the person was finally transferred away, and Yan Nuo and the others have also treated each other since then. The newcomer didn't like him very much, let alone a newcomer with a deep background, the disciple of the deputy director of the General Administration. It is said that the deputy director Long accepted such a disciple, so one can imagine how much he will value pampering.
According to Yan Nuo's experience, this kind of newcomer with a background cannot be said to be incapable, but he must be a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, has an impulsive temper and easily causes trouble, is arrogant and does not take the enemy seriously, and you can't scold him if you scold him. You can't beat him, you can only confess the person and let him stand aside, don't let him cause any trouble, if he has self-knowledge, it would be better to ask him to leave.
However, Mu Duo had a good impression of the winter solstice, and he also felt that it was not good to hit people's enthusiasm repeatedly, so he reported an address and said you should come here.
The winter solstice arrived soon, and Yan Nuo knew that Mu Duo had called someone here on his own initiative, so he couldn't help but secretly glared at her.
"Brother Yan, I know you have something important to do, and I don't want to disturb you, but something happened on my side."
He gave a brief account of the hotel and the weasel.
Xiao Qi, who was more impatient, couldn't help but said: "I'm afraid that weasel didn't do these things, but it was afraid of your revenge, so it fabricated an enemy out of thin air!"
"Probably not, because I found this, it looks like the shikigami used by Onmyoji. And according to that Baojiaxian, there are many more in the hotel. It is difficult for me to find out all the others, and I am afraid It alarmed the other party." Dong Zhi handed them the piece of paper.
Yan Nuo frowned and said: "In this case, we can only form an array to surround the hotel first, and then catch the turtle, but now our case is at a critical stage, the police may find Huang Wendong's mistress at any time, we really can't leave .”
Winter Solstice hurriedly said: "It doesn't matter, I understand your difficulties, I can set up an formation, but I can't guarantee everything is safe by myself, so I want to report to the East China Branch and ask them to send someone to help, okay ?"
The three of Yan Nuo looked at each other, they didn't expect the newcomers to be so impatient, they couldn't wait to solve a big case within a few days of their arrival.
Xiao Qi vetoed his proposal, and his tone was not very good: "No! When encountering a problem, what's the point of going to the higher-ups without thinking about solving it by yourself first? Just keep an eye on the hotel first, and just call us if you have any problems. Already!"
Winter Solstice disagrees: "The enemy is hiding in the dark and will appear at any time. I asked Baojiaxian to notify me, but I am also responsible for its life. If the other party is really an onmyoji, he must have come prepared. Dang, I can't solve it alone, it will be too late to notify you!"
His tone was not as aggressive as Xiao Qi's, but equally firm.
Mu Duo smoothed things over: "If not, I'll go and see it with you."
Winter Solstice nodded: "Then please trouble Sister Mu Duo. Brother Yan, this matter is a bit strange, I still hope to report it to the higher authorities, so that we can be fully prepared."
Xiao Qi was angry: "Are you an unweaned baby? This is not your kindergarten. If you want to report, go back to your headquarters!"
Yan Nuo shouted: "Xiao Qi!"
It's not for no reason that Xiao Qi got angry at the winter solstice.
Before the winter solstice came, Mu Duo proposed to report the dismemberment case to the higher authorities, because now all the evidence showed that Huang Wendong's death was very suspicious, as if caused by some illusion before his death.But Xiao Qi and Yan Nuo disagreed, because once they reported it, it meant that they admitted that they were incompetent and unable to solve the matter independently. Last time, they were criticized by the higher-ups because of their ineffective handling of a case. If you fail, you will easily refuse to ask for help from above.
There is no need for a newcomer to know about this kind of "family scandal", Yan Nuo lowered his tone: "I know, I will consider this matter as appropriate."
Winter Solstice: "Brother Yan..."
Yan Nuo raised his hand, motioning for him to stop talking.
"The situation is unknown now, and it's useless to report hastily. How about this, Mu Duo is with you. You go back to the hotel and have a look. We'll talk about it later if there's anything wrong."
Dong Zhi found that the other party didn't quite believe what he said, or in other words, Xiao Qi felt that he was eager to make contributions and exaggerated, and felt that the reality was not as serious as he said. Thinking of this, Dong Zhi couldn't help but feel a little helpless.
He also finally understood why the General Administration asked them to come to the office one by one to practice. This is obviously to exercise their ability to deal with people, because everyone has different ideas, and when all kinds of considerations are put together, it is easy to mess up one thing. .
Like now, there are only four people including him in the Lucheng office, but they still can't agree.
Winter Solstice didn't want to have a deadlock with them when they first came, and he didn't want to take the blame when things got out of hand, so he couldn't help but tactfully said: "Brother Yan, I know you must have more experience than me, but I In Changbai Mountain and Yinchuan, I encountered Japanese twice, and this time there was something suspected of shikigami, maybe there is some connection between them.”
Yan Nuo said seriously: "Are you sure this is a Shikigami?"
Dong Zhi was taken aback for a moment, then hesitated and said, "It should be."
Yan Nuo: "So, you can't be sure. If people from the sub-bureau come over and it turns out that it was just a false alarm, can you take the responsibility?"
Dong Zhi thought for a while, and said affirmatively: "I found out about the hotel. If there is any responsibility, I will take it."
Xiao Qi was annoyed: "Are you here to bear the burden? You are a newcomer, what burden do you have! Why don't you want us to take the blame with you!"
The other party is Long Shen's disciple after all, and Yan Nuo didn't want to embarrass him too much, so he said: "Well, I will explain the situation to the branch office as soon as possible in the next two days. As for whether to send someone, it's up to them to decide. Go to the hotel and have a look."
Winter Solstice couldn't hold on any longer, so he could only nod his head: "Then I'll trouble Sister Mu Duo."
As soon as he and Mu Duo left, Xiao Qi couldn't help curling his lips: "This kid is crazy for wanting credit, and he just wanted to make something out of it within two days of coming here!"
Yan Nuo said: "Don't do this, after all, he is Long Shen's disciple. If you say something in front of Long Ju, you won't be able to eat it and walk away."
Xiao Qi snorted coldly: "So I don't understand why the higher-ups assigned him to us. Shouldn't the director's disciple go directly to the branch office? Does bullying the three of us have no background?"
Yan Nuo knew that he had been brooding about helping the newcomers take the blame the year before, so he changed the subject: "Okay, okay, he is still obedient now, he doesn't make his own decisions, and Mu Duo is watching him! Huang Wendong Do you have any clue about the case?"
Xiao Qi scratched his hair irritably: "If his mistress is really a head-down master, she might do this kind of thing without anyone noticing, but it will be difficult for us to catch her in this way, why don't people check it out?" The current Southeast Asian immigrants?"
Yan Nuo said: "I've already told Team Zhou, but it's not easy to check, in case someone forges a document, or goes to a nearby province..."
The phone rang in due time.
I don't know what was said on the other end of the phone, Xiao Qi saw his face suddenly changed, and his heart was also raised.
Yan Nuo hung up the phone and said to him: "The whereabouts of that mistress have been found."
Xiao Qi was overjoyed, thinking that this is really another village.
"Then shall we go over now?"
Yan Nuo sighed: "The woman is dead."
Xiao Qi lost his voice: "No way! How did he die!"
Huang Wendong's mistress was found dead in a house in a high-end community. According to investigations, the head of the house was Bai Xiangmei, who was Huang Wendong's mistress herself.
When Yan Nuo and Xiao Qi arrived at the scene of the crime, the forensic doctor had already inspected it, and the body had not been removed to wait for Yan Nuo and them.
"Preliminary judgment now shows that she should have suffered a sudden onset and died suddenly. She was sleeping when she died, and she died before she had time to take the medicine. Other than that, there was no trace of trauma." Captain Zhou of the police introduced the case to them. .
Yan Nuo and Xiao Qi looked at the corpse for a while, looked at each other, and shook their heads, expressing that they didn't see any problem.
But Captain Zhou found many problems here.
"We couldn't find her medical records or drugs for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in this house, but we found that there were traces of another man in this house."
Yan Nuo: "Huang Wendong?"
Captain Zhou shook his head: "According to the feedback from the residents in the community, they have all seen a young man coming in and out of the deceased several times. Judging from the appearance description, it should not be Huang Wendong. We have collected all the men's items here and are ready to Go back and get your fingerprints."
Yan Nuo's heart skipped a beat: "Where are Bai Xiangmei's belongings, check to see if there are any missing!"
Captain Zhou said: "I've checked, there are several cards, and 10,000+ cash. I still don't know what the relationship between that person and Bai Xiangmei is, and whether he ran away with the money."
It's all too coincidental.
An accident happened to Huang Wendong's family. They just found out that the mistress was in trouble, and the mistress also had an accident.
Whether Yan Nuo Xiaoqi or Captain Zhou, no one believed that such a coincidence really happened.
But the chaotic and trivial clues also made them irritated.
This kind of extermination and dismemberment case has a bad influence. Now that the Internet is developed, some people have already discussed it on the Internet.
"The corpse will be taken back for an autopsy, fingerprints will be taken, and the identities of those who interacted with Bai Xiangmei will be checked, etc. All the results may not come out until two or three days at the earliest."
Yan Nuo asked Captain Zhou: "Do you have any inferences about this case now?"
Captain Zhou didn't hide it from him: "Bai Xiangmei is unemployed and relies entirely on Huang Wendong's supply for her livelihood, but recently we discovered that she opened a new bank account and transferred most of the money to her. It can be preliminarily inferred that she probably had a boyfriend outside and wanted to get rid of Huang Wendong. More importantly, before you came just now, we found a new clue in this room."
He beckoned to his subordinates and took a transparent plastic bag.
Yan Nuo: "Sleeping pills?"
Captain Zhou nodded: "It's the same ingredient as the sleeping pills left in Huang Wendong's wife and children."
Yan Nuo was startled, and looked at Xiao Qi in blank dismay.
Bai Xiangmei was indeed related to the death of Huang Wendong's family!
But Bai Xiangmei was already dead, and it might have been a sudden death.
The thread was broken again.
Although there is no autopsy yet, Yan Nuo has a premonition that the cause of Bai Xiangmei's death may not be found out, and that mysterious man may also disappear without a trace.
As a result, the case has become unsolved.
Thinking of this, the anxiety in Yan Nuo's heart became more intense.
He glanced at Captain Zhou, and the other party had a similar expression on his face. Obviously, what Yan Nuo thought of, Captain Zhou also thought of.
Xiao Qi is a person who refuses to give up easily, so he said: "The body should be sent for an autopsy soon, why not, let's follow her and see if we can find anything on her body?"
That's the only way to go, Yan Nuo nodded in agreement.
Captain Zhou said: "Man, we are stepping up the search now, but the monitoring has not found anything so far. We can only ask people to recover it based on the dictation of the residents of the community. Today will definitely not come out with results."
The corpse and some relics were transported to the forensic identification center. Captain Zhou invited Yan Nuo and Xiao Qi to eat, but everyone had no appetite and took a few bites in a hurry. Team Zhou wanted to go back and continue to follow up, while Yan Nuo and Xiao Qi received Mu Duo. phone.
Mu Duo said that they haven't found any other shikigami in the hotel for the time being, Dong Zhi opened a room for her in the hotel, and she will stay there to rest at night, and Yan Nuo exchanged the situation here with her.
Although Xiao Qi didn't answer the phone, he could probably guess about Yan Nuo's words. When Yan Nuo hung up the phone, he couldn't help but say, "I'm just saying that newcomers are unreliable! Hearing what he said was hype, Nothing happened!"
Yan Nuo felt irritable and didn't want to say anything, Xiao Qi had no choice but to keep his mouth shut.
At eight o'clock in the evening, they came to the forensic identification center.
The forensic doctor and his assistants were ready, and just after shaving the deceased, Yan Nuo suddenly said: "Wait!"
He walked to the dissecting table, bent down and looked at it carefully for a few seconds: "Xiao Qi, come and have a look."
Xiao Qi didn't know why, so he imitated Yan Nuo's posture and looked at the top of the dead man's head.
Yan Nuo said: "Baihui acupoint."
There was a bleeding point there, a little smaller than a grain of rice, and I couldn't find it without looking closely, but it was just right at the Baihui point.
Yan Nuo asked the forensic doctor to ease the autopsy, saying that they had to observe the corpse again tonight, and the Special Administrative Bureau also had the same right to participate in decision-making in this case. Naturally, the forensic doctor had no objection, and went out first with his assistant.
With this bleeding spot as an introduction, the two of them checked the corpse thoroughly again.
Without clothes and hair, the dead body was naked, and the wound marks on his body were clear at a glance.
Yan Nuo and Xiao Qi soon discovered that there were exactly the same bleeding spots on the soles of the left and right feet and the palms of the left and right hands of the deceased.
If you don't observe carefully, it is easy to think that it is just a blood mole, but the blood moles on the left and right hands and feet are almost in the same position, which is impossible to be a coincidence.
"What kind of killing method is this?" Xiao Qi frowned.
Yan Nuo racked his brains, but in the end he could only shake his head.
"Could it be... bloodletting to attract souls? I heard from my master that there seemed to be such a crooked method before, but I haven't heard of it for a long time now."
Yan Nuo was born in the Danfeng sect, which is a little-known sect with few people, Yan Nuo is considered the most promising disciple in the sect.Of course, Xiao Qi and Mu Duo don't have any background in the big school. Because of the similar background, the three hit it off right away, and the cooperation is quite tacit.
For this reason, newcomers who have no similar growth backgrounds like Winter Solstice will have a faint sense of repulsion, but it is not to mention exclusion and suppression.
The two discussed for a long time and proposed many possibilities, but in the end there were no results.
Xiao Qi sneered: "Maybe in the end it will be like what that kid said, let the higher-ups send someone to help."
Yan Nuo didn't want to get such a result, it would only prove that they were useless.
What's the point of keeping a useless office?
Many practitioners can't stand the rules of the Special Administrative Bureau, but there are also people who are willing to do so. Yan Nuo likes the excitement of rolling around in the secular world. He doesn't deny that he has a utilitarian desire for promotion, but he has done a few things recently. Things didn't go well, and he had to start doubting his ability to work.
"I'm going down to buy a pack of cigarettes, do you want to bring something?"
Xiao Qi waved his hand: "No, I'll see what else is found in the corpse, you go!"
After Yan Nuo left, Xiao Qi paced back and forth in the dissecting room. The people outside had already left work, and there were corpses in the dissecting room except him. The bright lights did not give people a warm feeling, on the contrary, it was more bleak and empty, as if Those urban ghost stories that are enough to scare children into tears in the midnight dream.
But Xiao Qi didn't feel anything, he was a cultivator after all, if he didn't even dare to stay in this kind of place, it would be ridiculous to spread the word.
He was just as irritable as Yan Nuo, his eyes wandered around unconsciously, and suddenly saw some of the relics on the table next to him.
The clothes were tested, and the plastic bags contained some daily necessities, as well as some small items whose uses were unclear.
Xiao Qi picked them up one by one, casually, still thinking about the technique of bloodletting to lure souls in his mind, and his eyes suddenly stopped on the plastic bag in his hand.
Inside was a small bell.
A very ordinary bronze bell, the size of half a palm, the workmanship is not rough, but it is not exquisite, it should be a kind of handicraft sold in the shop outside.
Xiao Qi remembered that Team Zhou had said that this bell was what Bai Xiangmei was holding in her hand before she died.
What are you doing grabbing a bell before you die? Could it be that the bell was hanging somewhere and she tore it off?
Xiao Qi was puzzled, and just looked at it through the bag.
Then he heard a crisp sound.
ding - ding -
Xiao Qi lowered his head involuntarily, the bell was lying quietly in his palm, where did it make a sound?
ding - ding -
The crisp bells reverberate far away, like camel bells on the ancient road, one sound is very regular.
But Xiao Qi didn't have so many literati daydreams, he just felt the hairs all over his body stand on end.
In the middle of the night, there was almost no one outside, so where did the bell come from?
Outside the glass door, the lights in the aisle flickered on and off, as if someone had come quietly.
"Who!"
