Pretend to be a ghost Day 160·"I heard that the hotel is on fire, and there are still people hanging out of the windows on the eighth floor..."

The scorched yellow, brown and black fire marks on the ceiling resembled the silhouette of a person. Looking at it quietly in the dead of night, it still feels a bit intrusive.

Jiang Yiming touched the ancient coin in the palm of his hand, and the ancient coin faintly vibrated.

He looked up at the ceiling, narrowed his eyes slightly, with a hint of meaning: "What kind of story do you think... there will be here?"

Zhong Sheng didn't understand what Jiang Yiming meant, he frowned and looked at the burn marks in the room and asked, "Story?"

Zhong Sheng really couldn't think of what Jiang Yiming was thinking, what Jiang Yiming had seen, was almost unheard of in the modern age where Zhong Sheng lived.

Seeing this, Jiang Yiming knew that Zhong Sheng hadn't thought of this aspect.

He hesitated before whether Zhong Sheng should know too much about his world, and he worried whether such understanding would be an unnecessary burden for Zhong Sheng.

But after hesitating, he chose to let Zhong Sheng completely accept his world.

Since Zhong Sheng chose him and invaded his life so forcefully, then he should also completely open up his world, and let Zhong Sheng thoroughly understand what his world is like. The equality and respect of this relationship.

"In fact, after the police circled the scene of the deceased's body, it was much clearer compared with the situation at the scene." Jiang Yiming explained to Zhong Sheng.

He pointed to the human silhouette and burnt yellow on the ceiling, "Lu Kairui's body was found here, and on the ceiling here, there appeared the same old, burnt human silhouette. Such a coincidence, in my eyes, is There is no objective randomness."

"You mean, the fact that Lu Kairui's body was discovered by everyone in this way is related to a fire that happened here before? In that fire...someone was burned to death, and it may even be burned to death in this way." Discovered?" Zhong Sheng quickly realized, and at the same time guessed Jiang Yiming's thoughts, "Then, Lu Kairui has something to do with the deceased?"

Jiang Yiming nodded slightly: "Ninety-nine are inseparable. Or, if that person dies, there is no escape from Lu Kairui's relationship. There is no escape from karma."

"As for the evidence, it seems absurd for our metaphysicians to talk about evidence and present facts." Jiang Yiming smiled, "Let's leave this to the method doctors. I think they should have started investigating the things we found. Well, we don't need to worry about it."

The only thing he cares about is that the magnetic field here has an abnormality that makes the ancient coins vibrate.

The ancient coins are strange, which means that there are unclean things here, maybe they have just left, or maybe they have never left, it is impossible to say.

The only thing related to Jiang Yiming is whether there will be a murder case here, and whether someone will die because of it.

"The chime clock didn't look strange under my test." Jiang Yiming and Zhong Sheng walked out of the lounge, returned to the corridor, and walked to the place where several waiters accidentally dropped the chime clock.

"However, just because there is no abnormality does not mean that the clock is just a cover." Jiang Yiming changed the topic, "The eye-catching shape design of the clock itself, and the time-telling props with the baby's face, these may be deliberately used to attract people's attention , but the patterns on the two doors on the clock, no matter what, I believe there must be its purpose.”

While he was saying this, Chu Ge, the baby-faced appraisal commissioner of the Appraisal Division of the Police Headquarters, was also saying the same thing.

Seeing that Chu Ge excitedly called his colleagues over, he revealed in front of everyone the real reason why the two time reporting props existed and were replaced at the same time in the clock.

"There is a hidden compartment in the clock, as long as the angle between the pointer and the minute hand on the dial of the clock forms a special angle, the activation of the dark compartment will be triggered, and the cuckoo in the clock will fall into the hidden compartment below, and a built-in similar The mechanism of the seesaw principle, the cuckoo falls into the dark compartment, and the baby’s face on the other side is lifted up to the dark compartment.” Chu Ge said.

"The special angle for activating the hidden grid is the [-]-degree angle formed when the clock points to nine o'clock."

"In addition, there is another design, which is really a prank master's design." Chu Ge exclaimed, "Look at the eyes of this baby's face, they are closed when you look at it this way, and the waiting time is every 10 minutes, that is, six At ten degrees, its eyes will be slightly raised due to the built-in mechanism inside, that is to say, as long as the clock is still ticking, this mechanism will always exist.”

As he spoke, he adjusted and moved the pointer, and made a quick 360-degree turn, and he could see that the eyes on the baby's face went from closing to opening, and then to closing, which was a complete closing stage.

"This switch is built into the baby's face. If I hadn't disassembled it for research, I wouldn't have discovered it." Chu Ge was extremely proud, "And if it were an ordinary person, even if he thought it was a mechanism, he would still be unable to find it because of it. I couldn’t find where the agency was and doubted myself, and was scared to death by the baby’s face telling the time.”

Hearing this, the other colleagues looked at the baby's face that was smashed and stuck together with glue. It was even more creepy than when it was brought back to the police station. Goosebumps could not help but they couldn't help but look at Chu Ge. Keep twitching the corners of your mouth.

Ordinary people wouldn't think of smashing this baby's face and looking for clues inside, right?

After Chu Ge finished sharing his discovery, he told the others to continue doing what they should do. He ran downstairs to the forensic medicine department in private, and found Fang Shiyi: "There is one more thing, that is, the two people who called the clock. There is a pattern engraved on the door, the pattern is a bit weird, I feel a little tingling when I touch it, as if I resist touching it. And to be honest, when I noticed it, my first reaction was that I didn't want to touch it. "

Fang Pickup was cleaning the skull teeth soaked in glass jars on the table. Hearing this, he stopped his hands and looked at Chu Ge thoughtfully: "Is this your instinctive reaction? Are the patterns on the door contradicting you? "

"Or rejection?" Chu Ge hesitated.

Fang Shiyi followed Chu Ge to his identification department office. He raised his hand and touched the lines on his head, but he didn't feel anything strange.

Chu Ge tried to touch it again, but seemed to have been burned, and immediately shrank back, looking at Fang Shiyi bitterly.

Fang Shiyi raised his eyebrows, he could see that at the same time Chu Ge touched, the pattern on the door flashed a red light, like a red-hot soldering iron.

"I tried asking the monk and the eldest sister to open it, and they had the same reaction as me. In the end, I had to ask my colleagues to help open it." Chu Ge curled his lips. The monk was the previous Qin Hao, and the eldest sister's head was Zhu Qingqing. Follow the methodologist and the person with the longest response time.

"That's to prevent something from entering." Fang Shiyi said, "If you touch this door, you will feel such a strong burning pain, then if you are an ordinary ghost, you will touch this door. Open the door, it will disappear on the spot."

Chu Ge was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly felt that this door was extremely dangerous.

"Have you checked everything in the door?" Fang Shiyi asked again.

Chu Ge nodded: "I checked inside and out, but I didn't find anything that needs to be protected with such a thing."

"Perhaps from another angle, we are not looking for something that 'needs to be guarded against', but 'things that shouldn't exist in this alarm clock'." Fang Shiyi said, "This may not be used to hurt people, maybe it is used to to protect something."

Chu Ge seemed to understand a little bit. He squinted his eyes and thought about it for a while, then suddenly searched for a long time in the chiming clock, and finally found an old clock dial, and said, "This one was placed in the tree house before. It looks like It looks like a used dial that was replaced, but I don’t know why it was placed in the tree house, I thought it was a replacement and disassembled it and threw it away.”

He found this clock face when he was looking for the secret compartment, and it was left in an inconspicuous place. If he hadn't dug three feet to find the secret compartment, he would definitely not have found this thing.

As soon as Fang picked it up, he saw that the dial was covered with traces of smoked yellow, and the metal needles on the dial were even twisted, as if they had been roasted at high temperature.

"The dial is coated with a layer of fire-resistant oil, so it looks like it has been burned, but not completely burned." Chu Ge explained.

"The above time also stays at nine o'clock." Fang Shiyi said.

Chu Ge heard the words and leaned over to take a look: "It's really like this..."

"How is the progress of the fire incident a few years ago investigated by Zhu Zhenzhen and the monk?" Fang Shiyi asked.

"The elder sister found traces of the case being handled artificially, and a lot of information has been cleared. The elder sister is now trying to restore it, and the progress is a bit slow." Chu Ge said.

"It was cleared artificially?" Fang Shiyi was a little surprised. This discovery was equivalent to telling them that this incident involved a certain person with high authority, who could manually process the case information filed in their file room. With such authority Not many people.

While he and Chu Ge were talking, the sound of the police suddenly came from downstairs, and the movement was not small.

Both of them were a little surprised. Fang Shiyi adjusted the radio station in the department, only to hear that a hotel was on fire, and there were people hanging out of the window on the eighth floor of the hotel. He didn't know if he was going to commit suicide or what he was going to do.

"*hotel? Why is it this hotel again?" Chu Ge frowned. The place where the body was found earlier was there, and there was a wave of ups and downs. It was really bad feng shui.

"But it's just a fire and a person hanged outside the window. How can there be such a big commotion?" Chu Ge lay on the window and watched, seeing that almost all the police forces in the General Administration had been transferred out, and he couldn't help being speechless.

"I heard that it was the pressure from the superiors. It seems that there is a person of great status living in that hotel." A colleague also leaned over to watch the excitement, "Most of our department has been transferred away."

"Higher than our General Administration? That has to be..." Chu Ge calculated the relationship.

"Central." Fang Shiyi frowned.
