Every time I wake up I'm at the crime scene

After a few minutes, the mood of the two people gradually calmed down.

Seeing Jiang Ran's aggrieved appearance, Lin Qian stroked his hair with a smile, and said, "Okay, don't be angry, come with me to see the scene?"

Jiang Ran nodded and said, "Okay."

After going out, the village leader saw Lin Qian and said in surprise, "I heard that you came here by yourself? You are really good and lucky! However, you are too bold. Hey, a few years ago, the wind and waves When they were not so old, some people went to sea, and many people died."

After Jiang Ran heard this, his face became even more serious.

Lin Qian glanced at Jiang Ran's face, smiled and said, "Well, maybe I think someone is waiting for me here, so I have more courage."

Jiang Ran's eyes immediately became moist: "In the future, you can't do this again."

Lin Qian nodded and said, "Well, don't worry, this won't happen again."

The village leader looked at the backs of the two people leaving, and thought to themselves, the two people are more strange than the other.With such a big wave on the sea, no one would come over at all, and I don't know how these two people got here.It seems that it is not a simple person.

"Are there just the two of us?" Jiang Ran asked halfway.

Lin Qian finally heard Jiang Ran's words, and said with a smile, "Why, aren't the two of us okay? Do you want more people?"

Jiang Ran gave him a blank look, and said, "Why, I'm afraid there won't be enough staff."

Lin Qian said: "There are no professional policemen on the island now, so I dare not let non-professional people come over, for fear of spoiling the scene. Besides, we don't know who the murderer is, so it's best not to trust anyone easily. Let's investigate first. Check it out and call someone if necessary."

Jiang Ran thought about it, and felt that Lin Qian was right.

At the foot of the mountain in the scenic area, Jiang Ran knocked on the guard's door again.

The guard wanted to say that he couldn't go up now, but when he saw it was Jiang Ran, he smiled and said, "So it's you, why are you here again?"

Jiang Ran said the words he had prepared, and said, "Uncle, I walked too fast just now, and something fell on it. I want to find it with my friends."

It was only then that the guard noticed Lin Qian who was standing aside, and saw that handsome man staring at him, which made him feel a little scared.

Seeing this, the guard didn't say anything, and said, "Okay, you go up, but, it's going to rain soon, and when it rains, there will be strong wind and waves, so please pay attention to safety."

"Okay, thank you for reminding me, uncle."

After Jiang Ran and Lin Qian left, the guard thought to himself, what's the matter today, the people who came were prettier than the other.They're all like the stars on TV.Thinking about it this way, I suddenly felt that one of them really looked like the TV series I watched some time ago.

what do you say that is?The doorman couldn't remember for a while.I simply didn't think about it anymore, and went back to the house to sleep.

After arriving at the pavilion where Jiang Ran sent, Lin Qian took a closer look at the surrounding environment.

Jiang Ran didn't bother him either, just sat there and watched the scenery not far away.To be honest, if it weren't for the death of people within ten meters nearby, this place would really be an excellent place to see the scenery.The environment is very comfortable, the sea breeze blows cool, and the air is very fresh.Smell it hard, as if you can smell the fragrance of grass mixed with the smell of soil and sea water.

Seeing Jiang Ran breathing hard with his eyes closed, Lin Qian asked with a look of enjoyment, "Did you smell it too?"

After hearing this, Jiang Ran opened his eyes and asked blankly, "What do you smell?"

"The smell of blood." Lin Qian said solemnly.

Seeing Lin Qian's serious expression, Jiang Ran felt his stomach churn, and almost vomited a few times, only then remembered that he hadn't eaten at all in the morning, so there was nothing to vomit.Could it be that you want to vomit the overnight meal?

"No." Jiang Ran said honestly.

Before Lin Qian said anything, he felt that the air here was really good, very fresh and natural.When I smell it again now, I only feel that the smell of rotten leaves in the air is mixed with the smell of salted fish.

Lin Qian nodded, ignored Jiang Ran, and started searching with his head down.

At first, I smelled it standing up, then I bent down and stood in several places to smell it vigorously, and then I just lay down on the ground to smell it.

"Humanoid police dog?" Jiang Ran couldn't help but whispered.

To be honest, Jiang Ran's voice is not loud, not even as loud as the sea breeze not far away.However, I don't know if Lin Qian was too sensitive to his voice. As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Qian raised his head.

Jiang Ran covered his mouth and pretended that he didn't say anything.

Lin Qian said, "I found it."

Jiang Ran quickly walked out of the pavilion, walked downhill a few steps, and came to Lin Qian.He sniffed carefully, but couldn't smell anything.There is no bloody smell like rust.

"Still haven't smelled it." Jiang Ran was honest as always, then looked around again, and said, "I didn't see any blood or traces."

Lin Qian didn't express any opinion on this, and continued to lie on the ground. This time, he not only smelled it, but also listened with his ears.

Following Lin Qian's example, Jiang Ran also lay down on the ground and listened.Still heard nothing but the sea breeze.

Lin Qian seemed to have come to some conclusion, stood up and said, "If this is really the scene of the crime, even if there is blood, it would have disappeared after a night of washing. You came here after twelve o'clock last night Yes, it means that crimes were being committed at that time. I checked the weather on the island, and I also asked the staff of the village committee. It has been raining intermittently since the day before yesterday, and it was even more thunderstorm last night, and it continued until the morning It's past seven."

"Then how did you smell it?" Jiang Ran asked suspiciously.

"My nose is more sensitive than others since I was a child, and I have received some training later." Lin Qian said.

Jiang Ran said: "Then you are stronger than police dogs."

It seems that just saying that he is a police dog has also belittled him.At least, police dogs can only smell things, not solve crimes.

Lin Qian's face darkened, and he looked at Jiang Ran disapprovingly.

Jiang Ran rubbed his nose embarrassingly, and looked around, but he didn't look at Lin Qian.

Lin Qian ignored him and said, "Go and find the entrance."

Jiang Ran asked suspiciously, "Huh? Entrance? What entrance?"

Lin Qian pointed to the field and said, "It's down here."

With that said, he went down.

Seeing this, Jiang Ran hurriedly followed, and asked, "How do you know there is an entrance below?"

"It can be heard that the ground below is empty, and it can be judged from the sound of the sea breeze." Lin Qian explained.

Jiang Ran suddenly realized, and said: "No wonder you lay on the ground and listened for a long time. I just said, if you want to smell, you only need to use your nose. How come you also use your ears. It's also strange."

Went down and circled a few times, neither of them found the entrance.

Jiang Ran said out of breath, "Why don't we ask the guard to come over?"

Lin Qian looked at Jiang Ran and said, "Can you guarantee that the guard is not the murderer?"

Jiang Ran was stunned, and said, "No. To be honest, I observed him for a long time when I went down this morning."

"What about the conclusion?"

"Uh, nothing at all."

After turning around again, Lin Qian finally found the entrance on the other side according to the sound of the wind.

"My God, there is such a place here. What kind of idol is this?" Jiang Ran asked looking at a hideous idol at the entrance of the cave.

"It should be the mountain god." Lin Qian looked at the introduction next to him and said.

"Mountain God?" Jiang Ran said. After looking carefully again, he said, "So it really is. I didn't expect the mountain god to be placed in such a place."

"It should be that the customs are different in each place, and this mountain god is not the only one, there should be other places." Lin Qian said.

Looking at the dark cave inside the fence, Jiang Ran said, "It's just, why is it fenced off inside. It's also dark inside, and it looks scary. Lin Qian, we really want to go in..."

Before he finished speaking, Jiang Ran saw Lin Qian flipping in with his hands and feet.

Just as Jiang Ran wanted to turn in, Lin Qian handed him a pair of foot gloves and gloves, and said, "Put them on."

It was only then that Jiang Ran noticed that Lin Qian had put on his ankle gloves and gloves at some point.

After walking a few steps, there was a door in front of him. I didn't notice it when I was outside, but when I walked in, I realized that it was a door. No wonder I didn't feel the wind in the cave.

There is a lock on the door and it looks very new.

Lin Qian sniffed hard at the crack of the door and said, "The corpse should be inside."

As he said that, he took out something, and within a few seconds, only a "click" sound was heard, and the lock opened.

Jiang Ran was surprised: "You still have this skill?"

Lin Qian said: "We often encounter emergencies when investigating cases, and we only use it when we have to."

After Lin Qian finished speaking, a gust of wind blew over, like ghosts crying and wolves howling. Even Jiang Ran could smell the strong smell of blood.

With a shiver, the gloves almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Lin Qian quickly spotted them, and slowly put them on for Jiang Ran.

"Jiang Ran, if you are afraid, just wait for me at the entrance of the cave. I can go in alone." Lin Qian said.

Jiang Ran shook his head, pretended to be calm, took a deep breath, and said, "No, I want to go in too. I'm still half a people's policeman. I've caught bad guys and murderers. Is it possible that I'm still afraid of death? .”

Lin Qian stretched out his hand towards Jiang Ran, and said, "Well, hold me tight."

Jiang Ran looked down at Lin Qian's hand, and slowly put it on.The gentle touch made Jiang Ran's heart gradually calm down.

After turning on the flashlight, the two walked slowly inside.After walking a few steps, I saw a few corpses!

However, it was all chicken carcasses.

In addition to the chicken carcasses, there seemed to be a fishy smell of eggs and rotten fruit.There was a sack next to it, and it seemed that everything was taken out of it.Lin Qian poured out everything inside.

Jiang Ran frowned and asked, "Could it be that the bloody smell we smelled just now smelled like chicken blood?"

Lin Qian squatted down, sniffed the smell carefully, reached out and touched the chicken's body, and said, "Impossible, the bloody smell of these chickens is not that strong."

With that said, Lin Qian stood up, held Jiang Ran's hand and continued walking forward.

The mournful and tactful voice from the entrance of the cave became louder and louder, in stark contrast to the extremely silent figure in the depths of the cave.The louder the sound at the entrance of the cave, the quieter the sound inside seemed.This feeling of mixed movements and unknown dangers made people shudder.

And the cave became narrower and deeper as we walked, and the smell in the air gradually became stronger.

Fortunately, the back of the man in front is wide enough to keep Jiang Ran from being too scared.

"who!"

Suddenly, there was a loud shout from the entrance of the cave.

Jiang Ran's heart started beating wildly, almost protruding from his chest.Really, people are scary and scary!

Lin Qian also stopped moving forward.

"Who the hell is that? Who's inside? Didn't you see the words on the door, visitors are forbidden to enter." The voice at the door heard no answer from inside, and continued to say a few more words.

"Is it those two people just now?"

Jiang Ran and Lin Qian looked at each other, and they both clearly recognized who the voice belonged to.It was none other than the doorman just now.

"Come out quickly, you can't enter here casually, it's a forbidden area in the mountains, and it will anger the mountain god." The guard said eagerly.

Helpless, Jiang Ran and Lin Qian had no choice but to come out first.

"Sure enough, it's the two of you. What are you doing here? There are people in the dark, and people have died in it." The guard said.

Jiang Ran tried his best to pull out a smile, pointed to the sign and said, "This is not the first time we have come here, so we are curious. We didn't see the sign just now, so we went in."

The guard coughed lightly, and said, "It's also because of the strong wind and rain last night, and the sign was blown off. I just picked it up from the ground. But since you guys know it now, don't go in."

When Jiang Ran was talking to the guard, Lin Qian stared at the guard without blinking.

"What are you doing here?" Lin Qian asked.There is a taste of scrutiny in the tone.

The guard was startled, and looked at Lin Qian fixedly, momentarily at a loss for words.

"Say, what are you doing here?" Lin Qian's face became serious, and his voice increased a little.

"You... you... trespassing on the forbidden area of ​​the mountains, I haven't punished you yet, are you going to blame me instead?" the guard said sternly.

Lin Qian said: "It seems that you want to go to the bureau to explain."

When the guard heard this, his face immediately turned pale, and he asked tremblingly, "You... who are you?"

Lin Qian took out his ID and showed it to the guard, and said, "Be honest."

Seeing this, the guard immediately wanted to run away.

Jiang Ran had already quietly blocked behind him, and said with a smile: "Uncle, where do you want to go?"

"I, I... Hey!" The guard gave up his resistance and squatted on the ground.

"Comrade policeman, I, I don't seem to have broken any law. I just wanted to sneak here to eat offerings." The guard said, covering his face.

"Offer?" Jiang Ran asked suspiciously.

The guard said: "Yes. The day before yesterday happened to be the day of worship. The villagers brought a lot of things, including live chickens, eggs, fruits, pastries and so on. I was afraid that tourists would take them away, so I secretly I took a bag and hid it inside. I thought about coming over to get it last night, but it was too windy and windy, so I hid in the house and didn’t come out. It’s going to rain again soon, so I thought about coming over and taking it away, but it turned out ……Why."

"Did you kill the chicken inside?" Lin Qian asked.

The guard frowned and said, "Could it be that the chicken has been suffocated to death? In the past, it could live for several days. I didn't tie the bag tightly."

While the guard was answering questions, Lin Qian kept looking into his eyes and made some small movements.Preliminary inference, this person does not look like a murderer.

"Jiang Ran, you watch him at the door, I'll go in and have a look myself." Lin Qian said.

Jiang Ran frowned in disapproval, but thinking of the suspicious guard, he said, "Okay, then be careful."

"Okay." After speaking, Lin Qian glanced at the guard and went in.

Jiang Ran looked at the trembling guard and said with a smile, "Come on, uncle, tell me when someone died here."

The guard looked a little unnatural, and said, "I lied to you just now."

Jiang Ran looked at the guard who was full of lies, and said, "What about the so-called mountain god's anger? What about your sacrifice?"

After the doorman knew that the two were policemen, he stopped talking about running the train, but said: "What kind of society is this? What's so weird about it? Who still believes in feudal superstition? My four People in their 50s don't believe it, why, you young people still believe it?"

Jiang Ran choked for a moment, not knowing what to say.He really thought that there might really be some so-called supernatural event here, and he was curious to hear about it, but he didn't expect that it turned out to be a lie to them!

"Then why is it sealed inside?" Jiang Ran said.

The guard sat on the ground, took out a pack of cigarettes, lit it up and smoked, and said, "Why is it sealed? Do I need to say that? It's not like you didn't go inside. It's too dark and too narrow here. There is no scene, who has nothing to go here. The government wanted to develop here before, and some technicians left after seeing it, which is not suitable."

Jiang Ran felt that he was really naive.

"Also, don't you think it looks the same to put a statue of a mountain god and put a fence? This is a popular place to take pictures. Do you want to take a picture? I'll take a picture for you." The guard road.

Jiang Ran refused: "No, thank you."

Suddenly, looking at an apple that fell on the ground, Jiang Ran felt that he had just been fooled by the guard, and asked, "No, there are indeed offerings."

The guard said: "Oh, you said that the things I took away are indeed offerings, but not worshiping the mountain gods. Many years ago, this was not a scenic spot. A woman fell from the mountain and fell to her death. landed in this place. Since then, the family has come here to worship her every year."

After finishing speaking, the guard pointed at Jiang Ran's feet casually, and said, "There was a tomb here before, but it was removed later to develop a tourist area."

The guard's tone was very calm, but Jiang Ran was so frightened that he trembled all over.However, looking at the indifferent look of the guard, Jiang Ran felt that he couldn't be too cowardly.

"Yes, is it?" Jiang Ran said.While speaking, he moved to the side.

The guard said: "Yes, the day before yesterday happened to be the anniversary of her death, so after the place was closed, her children and grandchildren came over to burn paper and make sacrifices for her."

The two were talking when Lin Qian came out from inside.

Jiang Ran immediately stood up and looked at Lin Qian seriously, only to see Lin Qian's face was very serious.Jiang Ran's heart skipped a beat. I'm afraid there is really a corpse inside.

"Come in with me." Lin Qian pointed at the guard.

Said, handed him a pair of foot gloves.Jiang Ran naturally followed in.

The doorman saw that all the things he had packed before were poured out, and said distressedly: "Hey, who is this, so wicked. I didn't even kill the chicken, and I trampled all the fruit and snacks inside. What are you going to eat?"

Jiang Ran looked at the guard speechlessly.

"The people nowadays are really cruel. They don't even let go of the chicken. Why do you kill it? What a waste..."

After walking a little further inside, Lin Qian turned sideways and said, "Do you know this person?"

The guard stopped muttering, took a look inside, and immediately yelled "Ah", and trembled unavoidably.

Jiang Ran also stood aside and looked over.I saw a person sitting in the deepest part of the cave, that person was covered in blood, and his death was very hideous.He was stabbed countless times with a sharp weapon, and even his clothes were cut open.

Especially, in such a dim environment, the flashlight looks even more terrifying.Jiang Ran couldn't help touching the goosebumps on his arm, then reached out and hugged Lin Qian's arm tightly.

Lin Qian patted Jiang Ran's hand, looked back at him, and reassured him not to be afraid.

Jiang Ran looked at Lin Qian's eyes, and then slowly stabilized his mind.

"He...he...he...how did he die?" the guard stammered.

"It seems that you know him. Who is this person?" Lin Qian stared at the guard and asked.

The guard swallowed, relieved his nervousness, and said, "This person, this person is a villager in our village. He lives at the entrance of the village. His family runs a small shop and a homestay."

Lin Qian said, "When did you come to the scenic spot, did you see it?"

The guard thought for a while and said, "Yesterday...oh, no, I saw him the day before yesterday. That afternoon, after all the tourists had left, their family came over."

"The exact time." Lin Qian asked.

"It's around five or six in the afternoon. Not long after the tourists left, we close at 05:30." The guard said.

"When did they leave?" Lin Qian asked again.

"I didn't pay attention to this. I went to eat at that time, and I didn't see when they left." The guard said.

"Did you see him again later?" Lin Qian asked.He had checked it just now, and he could tell that the person died within a few hours.It should have died last night, or to be precise, this morning.

"No, I didn't notice." The guard shook his head numbly and said.

Lin Qian noticed the weirdness of the guard, and asked with a frown, "Why did their family come here after the tourists left?"

The guard glanced at Jiang Ran and said, "Come here to worship. Many years ago, a woman died at the entrance of the cave."

Jiang Ran also thought of the story the guard told just now, and then thought of the story of the mountain god that the guard made up, how terrible it was.

"What's his relationship with the deceased?" Lin Qian asked.

The doorman's expression was a little abnormal just now. Hearing this, he seemed to confirm the thoughts in his heart, and said excitedly: "Isn't the dead person his wife? It must be the spirit of the mountain god. He must have come to seek revenge. Yes, it must be. Let me tell you, his wife’s death was not easy! It turns out that he really killed his wife!”
