The villain is being forced to whitewash again

Qin Shi asked, "What's your name?"

"Everyone calls me Xiaobai." The man said in his usual lively tone.

"Xiaobai, are you also on duty in the prison at night?"

"Well, no, I am very leisurely every day."

At this moment, there was no one else but the two of them, Qin Shi immediately said in a low voice: "I... need your help with something, can you replace someone else on duty at night?"

Xiaobai boldly agreed: "What's the matter, I'm going to transfer shifts now, do you want to have snacks at night, I can make them now, do you like sweet or salty?"

Qin Shi said again: "Wait a minute, you can go to the shift later, remember, don't tell others that I asked you."

"Ah, why is that? You didn't force me. I did it voluntarily. They won't be angry." Xiaobai asked puzzledly.

Qin Shi didn't say too much, and said tactfully, "In short, just do as you want."

"...Okay." Really not understanding this question, Xiaobai scratched the hair on the back of his head in doubt.

At night, in the empty prison, Xiaobai arrives as promised. When he sees him coming, he ignores the lunch box in his hand. Although it is delicious, but now is really not the time to eat!

Qin Shi asked, "Is there anyone on duty outside?"

"No." Xiaobai replied honestly, and by the way, was curious about what Qin Shi wanted to do.

"Do me a favor, take out the key to open the door, I have something urgent to come back later, you also come with me."

"Oh." Feeling that the answer was too complicated, Xiaobai simply gave up thinking about it, opened the door, and loosened the iron chains on Qin Shi's wrist and ankle. As expected, there was no one outside.

The two of them walked on the street smoothly, and it was already curfew time, the surroundings were so quiet that even the lights in the house could not be seen, if a needle dropped, they would probably be able to hear it clearly, a black cat ran up the roof, When there is a sound, there is only white light, seeping through people, appearing and disappearing on the tiles from time to time.

The moonlight was not high, and it didn't fall much on the ground. A lantern was lit, and a black cloth covered it to prevent it from being too bright to be noticed by the beaters.

Xiaobai walked beside him and said curiously, "Where are you going?"

"You'll know when it arrives."

Stopping in front of an inn, Qin Shi took out a white handkerchief from his arms, covered half of his face, and stretched out the other to knock on the door.

People came soon, Xiaoer rubbed his eyes in bewilderment and said: "It's so late at night, who is it, is it going to be a tip or a hotel?"

Not enough cultivation, changing the voice is still a problem, Qin Shi winked at Xiaobai, but helplessly, the other party couldn't accept his signal at all, so he had to take the token from the Ministry of Punishment to identify himself from his waist, He said proudly: "We are here to investigate the corpse during the day, so hurry up and get out of the way. If the progress of the case is delayed, I'd like to see how you plan to take responsibility."

"It turns out to be the master of the Ministry of Punishment, please come in quickly!" Xiao Er hurriedly welcomed them in, but seeing Qin Shi covering his face with a handkerchief all the time, he didn't know why, so he asked suspiciously, "Why do you always Cover your face?"

Qin Shi purposely glanced left and right, and said with disgust: "People died for no reason, your place is the most unlucky, and at this moment is when the yin qi is at its heaviest. Covering your mouth and nose is too much to prevent the yang qi in your body from leaking out." Hurry up, inhale too much Yin Qi, if you don't care about it and don't take any precautions like you, if you don't pay attention, you will easily run into that unjust ghost!"

"Is this true?! It's just... about touching a ghost." Almost scared to death, Xiaoer said tremblingly.

"Of course it's true. What good will it do me to lie to you?" Qin Shi said seriously.

Xiao Er hurriedly said: "Oh, I'm really sorry, I'm sorry I can't continue to accompany you for the time being, but the body is in Room [-] on the third floor. This is the key to the door. Please go upstairs first, both adults."

After finishing speaking, he ran to somewhere in a hurry, muttering, "The handkerchief... where is the handkerchief... hurry like a law, Da Luo Jinxian, don't let me see anything dirty."

After successfully getting rid of the extra people, they went to the third floor, put the key in the lock and turned it, and opened it. There was a strong rancid smell in the second room. Now it is the end of autumn. Normally speaking, It shouldn't have rotted into this smell so quickly. It seems that the date of death has been more than seven or eight days.

Xiao Bai saw a plate of fruit on the table, his eyes lit up instantly, he picked one up and took a bite, um, it seemed very sweet, he couldn't help but sit down and enjoy it slowly, his cheeks bulged like a squirrel.

Qin Shi no longer had the idea to remind him that the fruits in the inn that were specially provided for guests should not be eaten indiscriminately. Seeing how happy they were eating, alas, it's better not to disappoint, and it will be used as the pastry money for Xiaoer when it will be replenished.

When I turned my attention back, the bed was still in the same dilapidated state, and the corpse inside was motionless, and the unbearable rancid smell was transmitted into the air from it.

Qin Shi frowned, strange, before entering the door, he clearly remembered that the room was very ordinary, there was no unusual smell, how could it suddenly become thicker, could it be that the policemen quietly stuffed the corpse into the bed after entering the door end?

No, the bed is not very high from the floor, if it is forced into it, how can the withered flowers and cheap ornaments around it be placed on the side of the corpse near the wall?

Suddenly realizing a certain point, he went out first, took down the wooden sign hanging high on the door, and checked the nail holes. Lots of powder.

I checked the other house numbers one by one, and sure enough, this happened to one of them. The decoration style was exactly the same, except that there was a porcelain vase with a large bunch of red flowers in front of the second room.

... No wonder he always felt that something was weird. It seemed that the room he lived in at the beginning was not No. [-], but it turned out that it was not.

The visual memory only grasped the porcelain vase with a large bouquet of red flowers, and the brain ignored the others because they were exactly the same.

During the day, when he was escorted out by the group of policemen, he put a black bag on his head, and he couldn't see which room he came out of. Today, he went upstairs again, so he naturally thought that the second building was the room he lived in at that time. In fact, it was simply dropped by others.

But... he was puzzled, and touched his chin unconsciously, why he didn't feel anything when he was sleeping, and he seemed to be sleeping deeply all the time...

When he came to the first room he stayed in, he groped for the uncomplicated window lattice and found it. He squinted his eyes. There was a hole in the window paper that was not the size of a little finger, just wide enough for a thin tube, and there were a few holes on the side. He picked up the poor powder and sniffed it a little far away from the nose, and his head suddenly became dizzy.

Oops!He hurriedly put the powder away from himself, leaned on the window lattice, lowered his head, took a big breath of fresh air, and managed to feel much better.

Such a strong perspiration medicine, just a little bit makes people almost fall asleep. It must be the smoke made by the powder blown in by the policemen in advance. The air is clear, leaving only a little bit of window paper.

He was already asleep, but he fell into a trap as soon as he fell asleep, and when he got up again, he was in a different position. The loud noise was probably a signal to wake him up deliberately.

He patted the powder off his hand, walked back to room two, rubbed his chin in puzzlement and thought, why did these arresters go to such lengths to do this?Although his reputation has improved a lot after several times of help, it is still quite bad overall. Don't you think it is unnecessary to frame him?

In the room, Xiaobai squatted beside the bed and looked at the headless corpse, muttering to himself, "It's so pitiful...it looks so sad, it's here."

Take bananas and apples from the fruit plate on the table, put them together on the ground to form a smiling face, it looks like a headless corpse is laughing, from a horror scene to an even scarier horror scene, nodded with satisfaction and said: "I'm so happy .”

It's a shame to let you stay only in the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Looking at this scene, Qin Shi twitched and suddenly thought, could the problem be with this headless corpse?

Walking to the bedside, he looked down at the headless corpse, ignoring the playful fruity smiling face. The murderer's attack was brutal, and his limbs were forcibly twisted to a completely impossible level. The close contact with the dead The taste should not be too creepy.

But the trick is dreamy, I don't know if the flower is withered in the first place, at least the average person will not put some cheap accessories around after killing someone, let alone smear the pattern with red color on the body some places.

The murderer probably didn't intend to hide this corpse, otherwise he would have buried it long ago or thrown it into the river, not to mention making a fancy pile. This person must hope to get some kind of comfort from it and leave this corpse as a sacrifice. People watching is also one of the ideas.

Such a perverted behavior should be done more than once in order to satisfy her.

He asked Xiaobai, "Are there any other similar corpses recently?"

Xiaobai thought about it hard and said, "I don't do this kind of work often, I don't know, but the Ministry of Criminal Affairs will keep the records of the under investigation and the closed cases in a special room for future reference. You want to find , we can go there and see if there will be any."

"Is there anyone watching at this time?" Qin Shi asked.

Xiao Bai ran out of the window, carefully looked at the sky around the moon, turned his head, and said confidently: "It's so late, they must have gone to bed long ago, don't worry, there is absolutely no problem."

I always feel... You seem even more uneasy when you say that...

Returning to the criminal department, the door of the room where the case materials are kept is locked, Xiaobai suddenly said angrily: "I forgot, the key is with Brother A Long, I will go to him and ask for it."

"Hey!" He ran away without a trace again, Qin Shi's mouth twitched, he didn't sleep in the middle of the night and had to go into the data room, he knew it was strange at first glance, so he hurried to take advantage of this time to go in and look at the records inside, otherwise he would wait later He was about to be thrown back into the prison aggressively by a group of arresters.

The door tied by the iron chain, he used his internal force to concentrate on one place and broke it in an instant. When he shook his hand, it was sore and painful, but he was counterattacked by too much force.

Opening the door and walking in, it was pitch black inside. With the dim moonlight on the ground, I saw an oil lamp on the table, found flint and steel in the drawer, and the flame ignited, illuminating the surrounding scene.

Rows of cabinets, the drawers were opened, all were thick blue books with the date written on the cover, and when he opened them, they were all trivial cases, not this one, so he continued to look it up, repeated several times, and finally found a A blue book dedicated to unsolved cases was found in the drawer of the cabinet.

The oil lamp was placed on the table, and I sat on a chair to read the book. On page 68, I found the case of the headless corpse. The murderer committed more than one crime, a total of eleven times. That is, seven days ago, there are drawings of every scene in it, and he will naturally not let go of this very important clue.

Every scene is extremely cruel, the modus operandi is the same, all are headless, but there are women, the body is twisted into various poses, the graffiti is different, and the things scattered around are also different, there are plants and broken porcelain, etc. Wait, what does this mean?Slowly stroking the drawing on the paper with his hand, Qin Shi fell into deep thought. What did the murderer want to express by this?

Withered dried flowers...cheap jewelry...broken china...a piece of scaly fish skin...red and green and blue body graffiti...

Wait, doodle!

Seeming to have found an important point, he suddenly stood up from the table, spread out the papers, and pieced them together again. No, he separated them and continued to piece them together. It took an unknown amount of time and finally completed it.

This person, he gritted his teeth, was actually using a dead body to complete a "Luo Shen Fu Picture"!

No wonder all the female bodies are used to express romance and sadness. Those decorations are intended to depict landscapes. How can ordinary people understand such a perverted idea!

It seems that this "Fu Tu of Luoshen" is not complete. One corner is missing. It is the protagonist Cao Zhi in the painting. If it is added, it will be completely complete. That is to say, the next person who will be murdered will be a man. This bastard is simply Lawlessness!Where the hell is he?

Clenching his hands tightly and frowning, Xiaobai held the key at this time, and the jingle jingle rang, and said happily: "I got the key, hey, why did the door suddenly open?"

Xiaobai scratched the hair on the back of his head suspiciously. Qin Shi saw him but couldn't see the person behind him, and asked suspiciously, "You came alone? Did you come here suddenly and ask for the key without saying anything?"

Xiaobai stuck out his tongue mischievously, "As I said before, they are all very nice. I didn't secretly tell you that you were going in. Brother Xiaolong yawned listlessly. He gave me the key and turned around. How about closing the door and going back to sleep? I'm great!"

You people in the Ministry of Criminal Justice are really casual...

Putting the blue book back, Qin Shi came out of the room, thinking about that matter with a frown. The night was too dark, and he accidentally kicked a flowerpot, so startled that Xiaobai hurried forward to set up the small potted flower. Touching the potted flower, "It's a good thing you're fine. If you hit the ground, Carpenter Huang must be very sad."

Qin Shi asked half-believingly: "Your Ministry of Punishment still raises gardeners?"

Xiaobai said lively: "That's not true, but Huang Huajiang is super nice. He started sending us flowers and small trees two years ago and insisted on keeping us. Especially a kind of purple flower, I also like it." I can’t name it. He raised it very well. It’s very fragrant, but there are not many. A new pot is placed in our boss’s room. He specially ordered it, and said with a smile that he would sleep well at night smelling the fragrance of flowers. Very sweet."

Qin Shi suddenly said: "Take me to your boss's place, now, hurry up!"

"Ah? Oh." Xiaobai said in a daze.

There was no one in the room, and purple flowers were placed on the table. Xiaobai asked suspiciously: "Our boss is often not in the criminal department, so I will clean here. What's the matter, do you really want to see our boss?"

Qin Shi walked up and stared at the pot of very lush and bright purple flowers for a long time, then suddenly slapped the pot on the ground, Xiao Bai said in a panic: "Oh my god, boss is usually the most precious words, call me Take good care of it, he will definitely kill me if he sees it!"

I wanted to squat down and quickly put the flowers back into the pot, but a round thing rolled out of the pot, eyes widened, and Xiao Bai tremblingly said: "Yes...how could it be a human head? !"

Qin Shi took his words and said calmly: "As for why there are dead heads in here, I have to ask the murderer—Huang Huajiang."

"Isn't he a good guy?" Xiao Bai asked in confusion.

Qin Shi said coldly: "If there are no accidents, the victim's head is also hidden in other purple flowers. This pervert sent it to you on purpose, in order to enjoy the pleasure of being traced while not being discovered. Excitement, the crime he committed only wanted to create a "Luo Shen Fu Picture" of a corpse, and soon, his last stroke will be completed, you must catch him immediately to prevent further crimes!"

"...that's amazing." Xiaobai smiled.

Qin Shi felt weird, why was this laughter so weird.

Xiaobai, who was originally ignorant, said calmly: "You are worthy of being the former leader of the Demon Cult. The emperor is right. You are indeed a rare genius. Even such a difficult unsolved case was solved. It didn't take a day." , it seems that even I, the No.1 arrester in the world, has to abdicate to give way to the virtuous."

Involuntarily taking a step back, facing Xiao Bai whose aura had changed drastically, Qin Shi became vigilant, and sure enough, he knew there was a fraud, "You... said that you are the No. 1 arrester in the world, could it be...!"

Xiaobai stood up from the ground, brushed his messy hair, and said with a slight smile: "You think well, but there is still one thing missing, my name is the boss, and I am the No. 1 arrester in the world—Jiang Jinzhi, the one named Xiaobai just now Yes, we all are."

Confused, Qin Shi said puzzled, "What are you talking about?"

The boss shrugged his shoulders, "Indeed, it's normal if you don't understand. The chances of encountering split personality are not high, and it's very common to be confused. I myself learned this word from the books published by Yuanshi Zhao. "

Now, Qin Shi immediately understood, "You and Xiaobai are both sub-personalities split by Jiang Jinzhi?"

The boss snapped his fingers, "That's right, it's easy to talk to smart people. Both he and I appeared in the childhood that Jiang Jinzhi painfully denied. Usually Xiaobai appeared. Sometimes it was me who handled the case, and occasionally it was Jiang Jinzhi. This protagonist."

Qin Shi said directly and indifferently: "Who are you and how did you appear? I don't want to know. I just want to understand one thing. What are you guys doing with other arrests to drag me into the water? Is it just to solve this case?"

The boss said helplessly: "You are too anxious, are you in such a hurry to leave?"

Qin Shi stopped talking, turned around and really planned to leave directly.

"Hey hey hey, let's go as soon as you say, I'm making a joke! Alright, alright, I'll make a long story short. Hey, Xiaobai is fine, why am I so difficult to get along with you?" The boss hurriedly persuaded to stay, He muttered, "Actually, I'm looking for your help to help me investigate a gray organization."

"Why should I help you with this job." Qin Shi said bluntly.

The boss's expression gradually became pretentious, "Because it's extraordinary and we ordinary people can't do it well. Do you still remember the mysterious incident that happened when you and Zhao Yuan went to the rally last time? That person is this gray A member of the organization, they come and go without a trace, and their abilities are even more terrifying. If they are left unchecked, no one can tell what kind of terrorist attacks will break out someday."

Qin Shi was silent, and asked after a while: "Then why did you find me? Because the 100-year-old closed-door practice that has been circulated in the world is still no different from young people?"

The boss said helplessly: "That's not true. Most of the things in the Jianghu are nonsense, and I'm tired of hearing them. The reason I came to you is not only the recommendation of the emperor and the various cases you have handled before, but also because of the fact that the people in the capital... I received a letter after I went back that night, you can read it yourself."

After receiving a not-so-thin letter, Qin Shi opened it. On it was a headless corpse and his name. Below it was a line of language that no unparalleled genius could decipher. Not many, just two lines, was enough for his heart to beat. Quickly tugged on the letter paper.

Stabilizing his rapid breathing, he raised his head and said coldly, "I'll take over this job."

The expected development, although I can't understand what Qin Shi understood, but at least it has settled down, the boss nodded, "In this case, just tell me how much money you want now, and this medicine, don't worry, the poison will not kill you Damn, you are still poisoned by the poison that Manager Jia stole to suppress your cultivation. I brought another detoxification pill from Zhao Yuan. Take it, and you will be guaranteed to return to normal within a stick of incense. "

After taking the detoxification pill, Qin Shi swallowed it neatly without saying a word, without asking him for money, and was about to leave with the letter paper, not even turning his head.

Before leaving, the boss couldn't help asking, "Hey, I'm really curious, what do you mean by the last two paragraphs of ghost symbols written on that piece of paper, can you translate a few words with me? It's really not possible, Or tell me what the name of this font is."

Qin Shi continued walking, his back disappeared in the dark night, and he raised his hand casually, "Isn't that called a ghost painting talisman, the scientific name is English, Yougotit, baby?"

The boss looked dumbfounded, and stammered as if his tongue was knotted, "Yuka, mean? Or baby? Ha, Yingyu, what the hell? Was the level of education 100 years ago so glamorous and noble?" ?”
