I didn't pay much attention to it, after all, this woman was kneeling less than a meter in front of me at this time, and after stepping on that thing, I came directly to this woman, and I saw her hands folded, as if she was praying for something.

I gently raised my hand to peel off her hair and look at the woman's face, but when I raised my hand to touch the side of her face, there was a click, and then a splash of water splashed from the water beneath my feet, and her head ...... It actually fell like this.

Then, an incredible scene happened, my eyes widened, I couldn't believe what was happening in front of me, this woman's hand actually moved, and then, I saw her left leg slightly raised, her right hand was slowly attacking me, I retreated again and again, and this woman, with a headless body, approached me step by step.

"Nima's ......" I widened my eyes, my left leg slammed on the ground, and my right leg was on the woman's lower abdomen, to my surprise, I was a big man, with all the strength of my body to kick this woman, this woman not only fell to the ground, but did not even mean to take a step back, just slightly stunned, the whole body tilted back.

Suddenly, my flashlight shone on the woman's back, and under the beam of light, I seemed to see several thin lines.

It's marionette again.

Thinking of this, I looked up and looked straight overhead, only to see a black shadow instantly passing from the manhole cover above my head, I didn't think about it, I climbed up directly, but when I climbed to the top, there were no people in this whole alley, not even ghosts.

However, I still found the fishing line attached to the woman on a few railings of the manhole cover.

I stood in front of the manhole cover and looked down, the woman's headless body was already lying on the surface of the water at this time.

"How is it?Did you find it?" At this time, Fang Yuan called me and asked me about the following situation.

I didn't say much, I sent a position, and directly let him come to the position where I was standing at this time.

Two minutes later, Fang Yuan arrived at the scene, and when he saw the corpse floating on the surface of the water at his feet, he was also slightly stunned, and then turned around and asked me where is this woman's head?

I gave him a blank look and told him all about how I came here and everything that had happened since I got here.

"In other words, when you came to the scene, the murderer was standing here, manipulating the so-called puppet line?" Fang Yuan asked slowly, looking down at the woman's corpse with his hands on his waist.

I nodded, saying that I chased the figure out when I saw it, but unfortunately, when I came up, there wasn't even a ghost here.

In fact, I also think this is very strange, this manhole is located in the depths of the alley, from the time I found the figure to come up, it was only a few seconds, but how could this alley have two hundred meters, a few seconds, run two hundred meters, this murderer...... Is it about to break the Guinness Book of Records?

"So, when you came up, he was gone? Are you sure it's only eight or nine seconds?"

After listening to my narration, Fang Yuan easily shone the flashlight around, and my gaze moved from the corpse to the beam of his flashlight.

"Eight or nine seconds, or even less, how short do you think this iron escalator is?" I said categorically.

Fang Yuan smiled slightly, and slowly walked to the miscellaneous place only a few meters away from this manhole, and swayed from side to side with the flashlight in his hand.

"If the killer hadn't run out of this alley in those eight or nine seconds, he should still be here, right?"

After saying this, he slammed the mat that had been placed at the door of these utility places.

My eyes widened slightly, and I saw that behind this mat, there was a man squatting at this time, this man was unkempt, his clothes were shabby, and he was holding a bowl in his hand that I don't know what age it was, and he was looking up at Fang Yuan and me in surprise.

Half an hour later, the police came to the scene and immediately blocked all the four passages of the sewer, east, west, north and south, and when Lin Xi got out of the car, he looked at me with disgust and asked me why the hair on my body was so stinky, I gave Fang Yuan a blank look, and said that it was not the result of defeating our team leader.

"Do you think that beggar is really likely to be a murderer?" waited until Lin Xi went down, and then I slowly came to Fang Yuan's side and asked in a low voice.

When we found the beggar, he was trembling, the rice bowl in his hand, also we were frightened to the ground, I immediately checked the beggar's hands and even feet, surprisingly, on the beggar's hands and feet, I did not find any traces of the fishing line, if the beggar is the murderer, then he was just fiddling with the fishing line, there should be more or less traces on his body, but he did not.

And just when I was about to close the coffin and conclude that this beggar should have nothing to do with this matter, Fang Yuan raised another question.

If the beggar is not the murderer, then where did the murderer go, indeed, there is no trace of the fishing line on the beggar's hand, but it cannot be ruled out that the murderer used external force to pull the fishing line, so we cannot hastily cancel the beggar's suspicion.

Because of this, after the police arrived, the beggar was taken into the car by them and waited for us to return to the criminal investigation team for interrogation, and Fang Yuan obviously didn't want to answer my question, just patted me on the shoulder and said that he would confirm the identity of the deceased first.

In this way, Fang Yuan and I came to the stench again.

The police installed three light bulbs in this originally dark sewer, which made the entire sewer bright, but also gave people a glimpse of how dirty the sewer was.

Waste water is everywhere, everywhere, it's garbage that people throw away, water bottles, and even worse, there's human waste floating on the water, and to be honest, if it weren't for the case, I probably wouldn't be here in my life.

"How is it?, have you found your head?" Fang Yuan asked in a low voice to the policeman who was standing on the inside of the sewer, still bending down to find the deceased's head.

"Not yet, but I think it will be soon. The policeman turned around and said to us.

In fact, I don't have to think about it, I know how broken the hearts of these policemen are, although they wear plastic gloves, they will really touch those dirty and disgusting things.

At this time, Lin Xi's two assistants had already moved the body that was still floating on the waste water to the empty platform on the side.

"The corpse has been soaked in waste water for a long time, and it has become swollen, so the moment the corpse falls to the ground, it will only come to the surface, its lower abdomen is soft, and it is believed that her internal organs have begun to decompose, according to this weather, the time of death of the deceased should be four days or even longer. ”

As Lin Xi spoke, he picked up the deceased's hands and glanced at them as soon as he raised his hand, and continued: "The deceased's hands were cut off from the wrists down, and according to this wound, it should be the same as the two mothers and daughters last time, they were all cut off with a knife. ”

"What about the fatal wounds?"

Of course, I knew that the two mothers and daughters she was talking about were Zhang Zhuo's mother and daughter, and before she came, I had examined the deceased's whole body in detail, and there were no injuries on her body, except for the hands, of course, and the head, which we have not found until now.

However, my question is in vain, since there are no scars on the whole body, then the deceased should have been beheaded and died.

However, I was wrong, Lin Xi glanced back at me, carefully illuminated the broken part of the deceased's head with a flashlight, and then asked the assistant to remove all the deceased's clothes and glance at the deceased's arm and chest.

"There is a black bruise on the deceased's chest, and this bruise has sunken downward, it is believed that the deceased was kicked before he died, and it was repeated kicking, this wound will be dented after the deceased's body is stiff, if the deceased has a history of heart disease, then the deceased is likely to have sudden death due to an external force attacking the heart. Lin Xi said.

"Why not the head?" I asked, confused.
