Lin Banxia stretched out his hand and saw a wet scarlet between his fingers-it was actually blood. When he wanted to decide what happened upstairs, he raised his head and shouted, "What's wrong with you?"
"We're okay !!!" Li Xinyu said, "That Wei Zhimao is in trouble !!!"
problem occurs? Lin Banxia was a little surprised, turned around and ran up the stairs, and as soon as he reached the corridor on the fifth floor, he saw Li Xinyu standing pale in the stairwell.
"What's the matter?" Lin Banxia saw her footsteps unstable, and quickly reached out to hold her.
"Upstairs is dead," Li Xin said, "I don't know if it is Wei Zhimao ..."
Lin Banxia said: "The dead, how did you die?"
Li Xinyu said: "I don't know, we were dead when we went up."
Lin Banxia said, "My mobile phone has no signal, you can call the police here, I will go up and see."
"Good ..." Li Xinyu nodded.
Lin Banxia immediately went to the sixth floor and saw the crime scene in Li Xinyu's mouth. It was really the same as what she said. The ground is covered with fresh blood and broken pieces of meat. The pungent smell of blood is irritating to the nasal mucosa. Even Lin Banxia, ​​who is accustomed to corpses, feels overstimulated. Lin Banxia couldn't imagine how this person died. It was as if he had been separated by five horses. He even saw some internal organs on the ground.
"Just died?" Lin Banxia asked.
"It should have died." Song Qingluo said, "When we came up, the blood was still bleeding."
Lin Banxia: "..." No wonder he stood below, his face still stained with blood.
"Call the police first." Song Qingluo's reaction was the same as Lin Banxia.
However, when they took out their mobile phones and wanted to make a call, they all found that their mobile phones had no signal. Yi Xinhe reluctantly said: "This phone can't get through, is the signal blocked?"
Lin Banxia suddenly noticed something and pointed to the corridor: "What is that?"
Several people looked up and saw that there were some messy footprints on the edge of the corridor. Those footprints spread along the edge of the corridor and went deep all the way, disappearing at the end of the darkened corridor.
Lin Banxia said: "Would you like to go and see?"
Song Qingluo said, "I'm going."
As he walked towards the end, Lin Banxia stood on the spot, watching Yi Xinhe continue to tinker with his mobile phone, and was very confused. The population density of this building is so large, even if everyone goes to work during the day, there should be some elderly people in Canada. But from beginning to end, they didn't see people in this building. Didn't they dare to come out when they heard something? Lin Banxia thought so, and walked to the nearest family, knocked on the door. He had just tried it casually, and didn't expect to knock it open, but nobody knew it for a moment, and the door creaked, and actually opened. A young face emerged from the door. She was a young woman. She saw Lin Banxia standing outside the door and did not take the initiative to speak.
"Hello." Lin Banxia said, "Are you a resident living here?"
The woman didn't respond.
Lin Banxia said: "Did you hear anything wrong just now?"
The woman slowly shook her head.
"No?" Lin Banxia frowned. "Did there be any movement?"
The woman shook her head again. Her reaction seemed to be very slow. The movement of shaking her head just like a robot running out of power.
Lin Banxia was very strange in his heart. He was behind a crime scene. Normal people saw it, they should react a little bit, but the woman seemed not to see it. Those black eyes almost stuck to his body. , Don't care about what is happening nearby.
Anyone can easily see such an obvious anomaly. Lin Banxia wanted to ask a few more words, and Yi Xinhe's horrified cries suddenly sounded behind him. He said: "Lin, Mr. Lin, it seems that something is not right. "
Lin Banxia turned his head: "How?"
"You, look over there." Yi Xinhe pointed to the building opposite them.
The building that Yi Xinhe pointed to was exactly the one that Lin Banxia found strange before. He looked up and saw that a group of people appeared when he saw the corridor opposite. They stood in the corridor with different genders, but they were staring at Lin Banxia with the same eyes. That kind of look is hard to describe in words, just like a group of mentally ill patients who are reluctantly suppressing emotions. It feels possible that they do anything.
Yi Xinhe's stared scalp was blown up: "Mr. Lin, what are they doing?"
Lin Banxia felt something wrong: "You call Song Qingluo back, let's leave here first." He turned around and found that the girl who had just interacted with him was still staring at him. When I was about to say something, I saw her smile and showed her white teeth ... and some red things on the teeth that looked like crumbs.
Lin Banxia couldn't respond, so she reached out and slammed the door shut, let Lin Banxia call it, and didn't open again.
Yi Xinhe over there called Song Qingluo back, and a few people summed it up, intending to leave here first.
They went downstairs, and when they went out, the eyes of the people in that building were also following their steps, almost watching them leave.
Li Xinyu was stared at goose bumps, and whispered: "I thought it was not so scary this time ... As a result, it seems that people are more terrifying than those weird things."
"Go out first." Yi Xinhe smiled bitterly. "Always feel that after a while, they will rush to kill us."
The four did not dare to stay, and quickly left the community. When leaving the community, Lin Banxia noticed that some residents in the other floors of this community also came out one after another. It was so far away, with strange eyes. Watch them until they leave the city through the alley.
When I went outside, I saw a crowd of people walking around, and several people were finally relieved.
Yi Xinhe touched the sweat on his forehead and said: "The mobile phone has signal, I will contact the police first and let them come over to help."
Lin Banxia said: "Okay, but how to explain?"
"No explanation." Song Qingluo said, "We have cooperation with the police." Also, their work content is so special, it is normal to have contact with the police. The previous few times were all in other places. Lin Banxia put this Stubborn forget.
Taking advantage of Yi Xinhe's contact, Lin Banxia and Song Qingluo discussed the clues obtained on both sides. Song Qingluo said that he found the remaining part of Wei Zhimao's body at the end of the corridor, saying that it was the remaining part. In fact, only the bones were crushed. It is very difficult to completely separate the corpse, but apparently, the murderer Wei Zhimao did perfectly.
Not only did he kill Wei Zhimao, but even his flesh and bones were all crushed. If they were n’t the clever ones, the remaining traces would disappear immediately.
Although it is unbelievable, Lin Banxia did smell a sense of inhumanity among those residents.
The police personnel contacted by Yi Xinhe arrived quickly and took more than half an hour to arrive at the scene. They wore plain clothes and seemed to be familiar with Song Qingluo. After arriving, they greeted him first and called him Mr. Song very respectfully.
Song Qingluo briefly talked about the situation inside, and after learning that they were carrying weapons, he decided to go back to see them together.
So with a vigilant attitude, a total of six people returned to the 13th floor of the old residential area.
The people who had been staring at them in the hallway had disappeared at this time, but a few people still dared not relax and climbed to the sixth floor as the crime scene.
What Lin Banxia didn't expect was that after they returned to the sixth floor, the messy murder scene was gone. Regardless of the ground or the railing, it became clean and spotless, as if everything they saw just now was an illusion.
"What's going on?" Li Xinyu was shocked. "So fast, so tidy? ?? Is the murderer still in the building?"
"I'll ask." One of the policemen named Sun Shui said, he turned and knocked on the door next to it. After a while, Lin Banxia saw it again, the girl who opened the door just now.
However, unlike the nervous expression that Lin Banxia saw, she looked like an ordinary person. After seeing the police card, she even showed a little nervousness: "What? Dead? I do n’t know, I have been It ’s all at home. "
Sun Shui said: "It is illegal to perjury."
"I didn't testify, I've always been at home." The daze on the girl's face didn't seem to be fake. "And no one knocked on the door just now. Don't you find the wrong person?"
Sun Shui looked back at Lin Banxia and increased his tone again. But no matter what he said, the girl was bitten to death and said that she had n’t seen it, and she was very tough. If it were n’t for the four people who were present, they would probably suspect It ’s not that something went wrong.
Reluctantly, Sun Shui knocked on several other households. At this time, Lin Banxia discovered that almost every household in the whole building had people at home. There were young people, children, and elderly people. It was completely different from when they came. A dead atmosphere like a grave.
However, no matter which person was asked, their statements were very uniform. I did n’t hear or see it. Even the seven or eight-year-olds were dazed, with an expression that did n’t know what they were talking about.
If it is acting, this acting technique is also a bit better.
Sun Shui also became more and more helpless. They did see exactly the same objects on the opposite floor, but the law did not stipulate that this could not be done, and the investigation immediately stalled.
Under the scorching sun, Li Xinyu felt that her back was cold, and she had seen many strange things. It was the first time that so many people had problems together.
Lin Banxia had an idea and said, "Right, haven't we entered Wei Zhimao's house yet? Why not check into his house?"
Anyway, the police came, they went in and searched, it was not a crime.
"OK." Song Qingluo pondered, "Go in and see."
They knew the room number of Wei Zhimao, so when they reached the door, they were still thinking about how to get in. Who knew Lin Banxia twisted the door lock, but found that the door was not locked at all and he opened it directly.
At the moment of opening the door, a faint sweet fragrance came, and Lin Banxia sniffed it, and always felt that the smell was very familiar.
"It's so sweet," Li Xin said, "like the smell of honey."
Wei Zhimao's house, which seemed rough and unusual, was the place where most people lived. Several people searched the house, and there was nothing to discover for a while. Unprepared Yi Xinhe reached out and opened the refrigerator.
"Lying trough!" At the moment when the refrigerator was opened, Yi Xinhe stepped back abruptly, almost hitting the person behind him, and he scolded involuntarily, "What's in the refrigerator ?!"
Lin Banxia turned around and saw the inside of the refrigerator. I saw that the fresh-keeping layer of the refrigerator was stuffed with red meat. The blood ran down the gap of the refrigerator door and flowed to the freezing layer, which was frozen into black. ice.
Seeing so much meat, everyone immediately came up with not-so-good ideas. Song Qingluo reached out and pinched a piece and calmly said, "It's pork."
"Really ... really pork?" Li Xinyu said.
"Yes." Song Qingluo said, "I will not admit it."
Everyone didn't say anything for a while, probably the thought that floated in your mind was: why did you easily recognize the difference between the two?
Lin Banxia didn't think so much, he looked at the flesh, then retracted his eyes, and continued to search elsewhere. Unexpectedly, he actually found something in the bedroom. He yelled, "Come in and see, what's in this box?"
"What?" Sun Shui came in first and saw something in front of Lin Banxia.
It was a huge wooden box exuding a stale atmosphere. A huge lock hung on the box. The lock was quite old, but there was no rust. It should be used frequently.
Lin Banxia tried to move the box, but he did not expect the box to be very heavy. With all his strength, he couldn't move it: "This box is so heavy, what's inside?"
Song Qingluo walked in front of Lin Banxia and stretched out his hand to lift the box. He was so powerful that Lin Banxia could not drag the box, but he lifted it up easily. Seeing this, Sun Shui said, "It's not that heavy." He reached out and wanted to take it over.
Song Qingluo raised an eyebrow: "Are you sure?"
Sun Shui smiled: "I've been ..." The word in his mouth hadn't been exported yet, and he felt a violent attack on his hand, and he stumbled a few steps. If Song Qingluo took it, I'm afraid Waist flashed on the spot.
"Lying trough, why is it so heavy?" Sun Shui was startled.
Lin Banxia made a hand gesture to him, saying that he was not a weak body, really because the box was too heavy.
"How to open this lock?" Li Xinyu asked.
"Unscrew it." Song Qingluo said.
When he had finished speaking, he stretched out his hand on the lock under the watch of everyone. Hearing a snap, the fist lock was screwed down by him.
Seeing this scene, Sun Shui felt that his neck was a bit cold, and he could not help shrinking.
After Song Qingluo unscrewed the lock, he opened the lid of the box, and Lin Banxia also saw the contents inside.
I saw that in this huge box, there were many small objects densely packed, most of them were some bronzes, it seems that they should not be antiques, but some modern crafts. There are also some small objects in it, such as rings and necklaces, which almost fill the entire box. No wonder it is so heavy.
Li Xinyu reached out and wanted to take out one, but when he started, he felt that it was not right and wondered: "How is this thing sticky?"
Lin Banxia also took a piece of it and looked at it: "Hey? What's on this?" It seems to smell sweet, is it melted sugar?
Song Qing □ □ crisply dipped it with his finger, licked the tip of his tongue slightly, and determined the composition of the thing: "sugar."
"How could it be sugar?" Sun Shui strangely said, "Is it something that was put in it that melted?"
This is possible.
Lin Banxia looked for it carefully, but didn't find the sugar bag. Instead, he found the same hairpin as Lu Yinyin got in the corner. It seems that Wei Zhimao was indeed the seller who sold the goods to Lu Yinyin, but he died suddenly, and even his body was missing, and he didn't know how to continue to pursue it.
"Sticky, so disgusting." Li Xinyu put the thing back and muttered, "Is anyone really buying this thing?"
"Who knows this?" Sun Shui said, "Shall I call a car and bring things back to the police station, let's watch slowly?"
Song Qingluo said: "Take things away, check the way, the information of the residents here."
"Good." Sun Shui answered.
It seems that there is no other gain today, and everyone intends to go home for the time being.
On the way back, Lin Banxia and Song Qingluo didn't talk much. The two were thinking about this matter at the same time. There are many things in this residential area that are not right. The only explanation is that everyone is affected by heresy Why are they normal again after Sun Shui came? Could this effect be divided into periods? Or is it that the heretic is consciously controlling them?
If it is the latter, it is really bad, Lin Banxia thought.
After arriving home, Song Qingluo was cooking. Lin Banxia saw that both Xiaohua and Xiaoku were still sitting on the sofa and watching Piglet Page. Both have been watching for a whole day, be careful not to be short-sighted. "
Xiao Cave pointed to his own eyes, indicating that he would not be short-sighted without eyes.
Xiaohua blinked twice and screamed her brother softly. Lin Banxia was instantly defeated. Let's see it. Even if the brother went to the roadside to pick up garbage, he would help you get the electricity bill to watch TV.
Speaking of electricity bills, the labor costs of 47777 heretics after being contained were also called in. Lin Banxia pinched his mobile phone text message and counted several times to make sure that he had not looked at the fancy. There were six zeros behind the numbers.
Lin Banxia was so excited that he patted his breast and asked them to eat the most expensive takeaway today--
Although the two little guys didn't know what the takeaway meant, they still clapped their hands in applause.
So dinner turned into a sumptuous meal. The most expensive take-out is Cantonese cuisine, the packaging is extremely delicate, and Lin Banxia did not dare to reach out.
In the end, Song Qingluo spoiled the flowers with spicy hands, and all of them were dismantled in one go. He took over the chopsticks and prepared to start eating. Just after Lin Banxia took a bite, Song Qingluo's phone rang, and he glanced at it, and Sun Shui's name was written on the screen.
Song Qingluo directly pressed the speakerphone and said, "What did you find?" He knew that Sun Shui would be fine and would not call him.
"I found it." Sun Shui said, "There is a particularly incredible thing."
"What?" Song Qingluo asked.
"You know, the police in the area will come to register the permanent population in that area." Sun Shui said, "so our system will register the permanent residence to record the movement of people."
This is not surprising, Song Qingluo said: "Then?"
Sun Shuidao: "Then I found that in this residential area, only one year of population has flowed in, and no population has flowed out."
Song Qingluo: "... Is this possible?"
"According to common sense, this is of course impossible !!" Sun Shui's tone was full of surprises, "Do you know how big the city's population is now? Especially young people, it is impossible to stay in one place all year, find work, go to school There are a lot of messy things, especially in this old city, most of them are tenants, it is more normal to have mobility, not more normal things ... "
Song Qingluo: "But not?"
Sun Shui is decisive: "No!"
Song Qingluo was silent.
Sun Shui said: "And I also found that there are other places in this area that are not in accordance with common sense."
Song Qingluo: "Say."
Sun Shui said: "In this year, there are no disputes about the chicken skin ... There are a thousand or two thousand people in this area, and no one came to the police station to file a case, just like living in Taohuayuan."
Song Qingluo said: "I know."
"Mr. Song, when are you going to go again?" Sun Shui asked.
"Tomorrow." Song Qingluo said, "how?"
Sun Shuidao: "I'll be with you."
"Okay." Song Qingluo agreed.
"Oh, by the way, the test results came out just now, and these things are sugar." Sun Shui said, "Nothing special, it is estimated that it was accidentally obtained."
"Really." Song Qingluo said, "Are there any other things checked?"
"Checked, it's an ordinary craft." Sun Shui said, "No problem."
"Okay, see you tomorrow." Song Qingluo hung up the phone, and he silently rubbed the chopsticks in his hand, as if thinking about something.
After listening to the conversation between the two, Lin Banxia hesitated and said: "Will that heresy have an impact on so many people? Will it be serious?"
"It depends." Song Qingluo said, "If it is only a slight infection, it doesn't matter, if it's serious ..."
Lin Banxia: "Will it be like Lu Yinyin?"
Speaking of Lu Yinyin, Song Qingluo lowered his eyes and took out the hairpin from his pocket. He took the hairpin out of the box today, and the sticky material on it was also washed away. It looked unremarkable and nothing special.
So why did Lu Yinyin suddenly have an accident?
Song Qingluo suddenly called Pinellia.
Lin Banxia said, "What?"
Song Qingluo said: "What can sugar attract?"
Lin Banxia said in a daze: "Sugar? What attracts? Do you mean animals? Of course it is ants ..."
Yes, ants like sugar. In the hot summer, even in a city made of reinforced soil, as long as it is accidentally scattered on the ground, but a moment of effort, it will densely cover the entire ground, do n’t know them Where did it come from?
Song Qingluo suddenly frowned: "I have to go to the hospital again."
Lin Banxia also realized something from Song Qingluo's uncomfortable eyes, and there was an incredible look on his face: "No ... no."
If it was what he thought, it would be terrible.
