Chapter 985: The smell of blood wafting from the back mountain
At this time, he needed to enter the house immediately to check, Feng Jun didn't pay too much attention to this small detail, and opened the door smoothly with his usual method, and a cool feeling came to his face in an instant.
The room is not big, only about sixty or seventy square meters, and there is no extra furniture in it, only a table, a cabinet and three chairs, it can be seen that this is a single old man's residence.
There is also a room inside, which should be a sleeping place, Qi Dongsi took the lead and walked inside, as soon as he entered the door, the light shone on a portrait of a deceased person on the wall, and the hairstyle of the person in the portrait was judged to be from the Qing Dynasty.
Underneath the black-and-white portrait is an ordinary, even somewhat shabby, bed, with a musty smell from the bedding that looks like a place where no one has lived for a long time.
Qi Dongsi looked at the room and asked, "Ah Jun, are you sure you've been here during the day? ”
Feng Jun nodded, pointed to the chair outside and replied, "I'm pretty sure I'm here when I came here, and I chatted with the old man on the chair outside." ”
Qi Dongsi radiated around the room, because there were not many things, and it was unlikely to find something similar to photos and letters, Qi Dongsi casually rummaged through the drawers, and finally decided to leave here for the time being.
"Let's go first, we won't find any valuable clues in this way, so let's wait until we see the old man and ask him face to face." ”
The three of them put some of the flipped items back in place and walked towards the door together.
Outside the stove was a door, leading to the courtyard behind, Qi Dongsi didn't feel unusual, but when he and Feng Jun walked to the door, they found that Ji Linyuan was standing there motionless.
Qi Dongsi turned around and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Ji Linyuan lowered his head, sniffed vigorously with his nose, and suddenly said, "I seem to smell a smell of blood." ”
"What? The smell of blood? Qi Dongsi sniffed and didn't smell any blood, and then turned to Feng Jun: "Did you smell it?"
Feng Jun sniffed and shook his head: "I didn't smell it." ”
Ji Linyuan said with great certainty: "I'm sure I smell blood, it must be around here." As he spoke, Ji Linyuan looked at the door leading to the backyard on the side of the stove.
Ji Linyuan has a special ability, her sense of smell is very sensitive, she deals with wine all year round, she doesn't even need to look at the recipe to know what kind of wine it is, for her, the smell of different recipes of wine is very different.
It was because of this special ability that she was sure that what she smelled was blood.
Qi Dongsi and Feng Jun didn't know that Ji Linyuan had this ability, they thought that Ji Linyuan's nerves were too tense and had an illusion, but Ji Linyuan took the initiative to walk to the door leading to the backyard.
Qi Dongsi immediately followed, since there was something suspicious, it was better to take a look, he believed that Ji Linyuan would not mess around, maybe there was really a smell of blood.
Feng Jun also followed, and the three of them entered the backyard together.
The backyard is not very large, surrounded by a fence, and there is a peach tree in the corner with some shriveled peaches on it. At the end of the yard is a slope that leads to a back hill, and the end of the road illuminated by mobile phone lights looks a little eerie in the pitch black.
"Where is it?" Qi Dongsi turned his head to look at Ji Linyuan on the side, he still didn't smell blood after he walked into the courtyard, so he asked Ji Linyuan.
After Ji Linyuan looked for it with the light of his mobile phone, he slowly walked to the end of the backyard, and finally pointed to the direction of the mountain and said, "It seems to have drifted from above." ”
Qi Dongsi and Feng Jun glanced at each other, the smell of blood on this dark mountain was an extremely terrifying thing, they realized the secret hidden on this back mountain, so they decided to go up with Ji Linyuan to have a look.
Although Ji Linyuan smelled the smell of blood on the mountain, she was not as bold as Qi Dongsi and Feng Jun, and when she stepped forward, she unconsciously took Qi Dongsi's hand.
Qi Dongsi was startled, and soon cooperated to hold Ji Linyuan's hand, and walked towards the mountain while searching.
A gust of wind suddenly rolled up on the quiet back mountain, blowing the swing of the branches and leaves of the trees, making a hissing sound, mixed with a stronger smell of blood, this feeling couldn't help but make Qi Dongsi and Feng Jun, the two big men, also feel creepy.
After walking for nearly fifty meters, the smell of blood became clearer and clearer, and Qi Dongsi and Feng Jun could also discern the direction where the smell of blood was wafting, and the three of them invariably looked at a small dirt bag not far away.
With the light of the mobile phone, I stepped forward to inspect it, and the soil around this small dirt bag was relatively loose, but the soil on it was very flat, and it was obvious that this small dirt bag was made not long ago, and it can be seen from careful observation of the difference in soil quality that there are things buried under this small soil bag.
The smell of blood wafted from inside this small dirt bag.
It was safe to guess that there was a corpse buried under this small dirt bag, Qi Dongsi and Feng Jun glanced at each other, and had a strong sense of foreboding, if there was a person buried underneath......
Qi Dongsi and Feng Jun found a branch and began to dig this small dirt bag, if it was the corpse of an animal, it would be fine, but if it was a human corpse, the matter would be serious, at this moment the two of them had only one answer in their hearts, an answer that they were unwilling to face.
Ji Linyuan held his mobile phone on the side to help the two of them shine on the light, and soon the two of them flattened the small dirt bag, as long as they continued to dig, they could see the truth.
They couldn't help but speed up, and along the looseness of the soil, the shape of the whole pit began to turn rectangular, and it seemed that the answer was becoming clearer and clearer in their minds.
Qi Dongsi clung to the branch and dug hard, he didn't want to see this might be the only chance to disappear before his eyes, but things were turning out more and more contrary to his expectations.
When a calloused pale palm appeared in the loose soil, Ji Linyuan couldn't help but shudder with fright, and the mobile phone used for lighting almost fell to the ground.
When Qi Dongsi saw this palm, his heart was already cold, the identity of this corpse was very likely to be the old man they were looking for, Feng Jun saw the disappointed look of his eldest brother, and probably knew the reason.
The corpse that was excavated in the end, after Feng Jun's identification, was indeed the old man who had made an appointment to meet him.
Exhuming a corpse from the dark mountain at night made Ji Linyuan a little nervous and scared, she tried to ask, "Should we call the police?"
Qi Dongsi quickly rejected Ji Linyuan's suggestion: "No, now the scene is all traces left by us, and the police will definitely suspect that we did it." ”
Ji Linyuan was a little puzzled and continued: "We can tell the police that we only reported the body when we found it. ”
Seeing that Ji Linyuan didn't understand what it meant, Qi Dongsi asked rhetorically: "How can we prove our innocence to the police? A corpse was dug up from the ground at night, and it is impossible to say, do we have any reasonable reason to go up the mountain now? Even if we can prove our innocence in the end, it will inevitably take a long time and a lot of energy, and I will definitely not waste my time at the police station." ”
Seeing that the eldest brother's analysis was reasonable, Feng Jun also said approvingly: "The eldest brother is right, this old man has no social circle, we are the only people who have contact with him at present, even if we take the initiative to call the police, the police will definitely suspect us, and I am afraid that the eldest brother will be involved in that matter at that time, so we must not call the police." ”
Ji Linyuan was persuaded by the two of them, and it was true that he was far less thoughtful than the two of them, so he continued to ask their opinions: "Then what should we do now?"
Qi Dongsi lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said as if ordering: "Immediately look for clues on the scene and find out the murderer." ”
"But this ...... Just this corpse, how can we find it?" Ji Linyuan didn't have any concept of this kind of murder scene, and for her, it was more fear, and she couldn't find suspicious clues.
Qi Dongsi has experienced such a scene many times, although he showed disappointment at this result, but his mind is still clear, he analyzed to Ji Linyuan: "This old man has no social circle, and there should be no enemies, but he died inexplicably, and it happened to be at the time when we need to find him, don't you think it's too much of a coincidence?"
"You mean, the murderer deliberately didn't let him tell us the truth?" Ji Linyuan finally understood the meaning behind Qi Dongsi's rhetorical questions, and she opened her mouth wide in surprise.
Qi Dongsi nodded, and guessed reasonably according to his own logic: "There is only one person who knows that I will come to find the truth thirty years ago, and judging from the wound on the old man's neck, the murderer Bacheng is an old man." ”
The last murderer actually pointed at the old man, and even Feng Jun was extremely shocked: "It's him??? why did he do this? Since he told you about your mother, why didn't he let you know the truth?"
Qi Dongsi said calmly: "The only explanation is that the truth is not good for him, so he is unwilling to let me know the truth." ”
Ji Linyuan also probably straightened out Qi Dongsi's logical train of thought, and expressed the guess in his heart: "Could it be that the incident about your biological mother is a lie woven by the old man? The woman in the photo is actually not your biological mother?"
Qi Dongsi can already connect everything perfectly, as if the truth is the case, he showed a rare smile tonight: "This is the only reason that can be explained at the moment, okay, we will now bury this innocent old man again, remove all traces of us, and then get out of here quickly." ”
Ji Linyuan pointed to the poor old man lying on the ground, and asked with pity, "That...... Then we don't care about this old man?"
"In a few days, I'll call the police in a fake name and let the police deal with this matter. ”
"That's fine. ”
