Chapter 10: The Hunter's Hunting Ground
In the villa in the mountains, Zhang Fa, Feng Chun, Li Kun, and Zhao Yajun were still chatting, and the long European-style dining table was full of empty wine bottles.
Wine, white wine, beer, pre-mixed drinks......
"Your family...... Bite...... Why is there so much wine, you can't finish it dry?" Li Kun asked with a stiff tongue.
"What is this, there are still a bunch of them in the cellar, drink, everyone has fun today!" Zhang Fa said with a smile.
"I've heard of the vegetable cellar, and it's the first time I've heard that there is a cellar ...... wine" After drinking too much, Li Kun's mood gradually stabilized, and he talked more.
This sentence made everyone laugh.
Hahaha, hahaha, hahaha......
Ha ha......
Ha ha......
Suddenly, everyone stopped laughing as if they were electrocuted, and everyone looked terrified.
Zhao Yajun's seat was the farthest away from the three of them, and at this moment, he was so frightened that he fell off the chair and crawled closer to the direction of the three of them.
Why, exactly......
Why is the laughter of several people mixed with the laughter of a baby!!
Haha, haha, haha......
A rapid, high-pitched laugh, like a sharp needle, pierced the eardrums of the four people.
"There's someone upstairs!" Feng Chun used to be a policeman after all, and at this moment, his eyes became resolute, and he quickly got up like a leopard and ran towards the second floor, followed by the other three, who also went upstairs one after another.
This villa has six bedrooms on the second floor, three each in the north and south, with a straight hallway in between.
The sound was made from the room at the end of the corridor on the north side.
"Who usually lives in this room?" Feng Chun asked Zhang Fa.
"My maid, isn't this your coming, there are some things that no one else can know, so I gave her a few days off. Zhang Fa replied.
"In other words, this room should be unoccupied now, right?" Feng Chun continued.
"Hmm," Zhang Fa replied with a nod.
The four of them had already reached the door of the room, the door was ajar, but the lights were not on.
The baby's mournful laughter still didn't stop, and in the dark room, it made people feel their scalp tingle.
Zhang Fa, who was standing at the back of the team, saw Zhao Yajun in front of him supporting the wall with his left hand, trembling all over.
Feng Chun took a deep breath and suddenly rushed sideways into the room, and with the help of the light in the corridor, he quickly found the bedroom light switch.
"Smack......
The lights were turned on, and laughter came from behind the curtains, and Feng Chun followed up with an arrow step, rushed to the window, and stretched out his hand.
The curtain was pulled back.
Zhao Yajun closed his eyes, he imagined too many terrifying pictures.
"Damn..."Feng Chun scolded softly.
It turned out to be a rag doll that made a sound when touched, leaning on the corner of the windowsill.
It may be that the servant was in a hurry and didn't close the window, but when the wind blew the window open, he sandwiched the rag doll in the crack of the window, and the rag doll was squeezed and laughed.
Zhang Fa rushed forward, closed the window, pulled out the rag doll, and the laughter stopped.
"This is a birthday present that my maid bought for my child, I guess I forgot to take it......" Zhang Fa explained awkwardly.
The crowd couldn't laugh or cry......
Recently, something strange happened, which made everyone panic, but fortunately, it was a false alarm, Zhang Fa gently closed the door, and everyone went downstairs to return to the table and continued to drink.
"It's so damn grandma's scary, I'm sorry everyone, I'll punish myself!" Zhang Fa finished speaking, and poured a glass of white wine with his head up.
"Haha, you're welcome, it's okay, but Brother Feng Chun's courage is big enough, admire and admire. There was a false alarm, Zhao Yajun was naturally happy in his heart, and followed a glass of liquor.
The other two were not far behind, and they all drank the liquor in the glass in front of them.
"Why does this wine smell?" Li Kun frowned and muttered.
"This is soy sauce wine, it's normal that you can't get used to it, our hometown really doesn't like this thing. Feng Chun sniffed the taste in his cup and explained.
"Oh......" Li Kun nodded as if he didn't understand, "It's not delicious." ”
"By the way, do you have any news of Mancang, after this kid went to Beijing to go to college, he lost contact with me, and he didn't go home during the winter and summer vacations, and then he picked up his mother, and there was no news. Zhao Yajun suddenly thought of this question and immediately asked.
Zhang Fa took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket, lit one himself, took a puff, put the lighter on the cigarette case, and gently pushed it with his hand, and the cigarette case slid impartially in front of Feng Chun, who was sitting on his left side.
"I don't know, I haven't had much contact with Jingkou Village since I left, and this kid has to ...... this year. Well...... Forty-two or thirteen years old. Zhang Fa said.
Feng Chun waved his hand, signaled that he would not smoke, handed the cigarette to Zhao Yajun, who was sitting on his right hand, and then said: "I don't know, I heard that I was admitted to a good university, this Ding Yong is a bit fateful, ha......."
A meaningful dry laugh.
Zhao Yajun took out one and lit it, and threw it to Li Kun, who was sitting opposite.
Li Kun was obviously unprepared, he didn't catch it, and the "snap" lighter and cigarette fell to the ground, and he left the stool and bent down to pick it up.
"I always feel that this series of things is related to Ding Yong's son, and when I go back to ask a friend to inquire about his whereabouts, I have to take precautions. Feng Chun rubbed the stubble on his chin with his right hand and said.
"Bang, bang......"
The long dining table suddenly shook violently, and several empty wine bottles on the edge of the table fell and rolled onto the carpet.
"Uncle Li Kun, what kind of evil wind are you!" Zhao Yajun stood up, stretched his neck, and sneered at the opposite side.
"Bang dang...... Bang dang...... Bang dang ......"
Zhao Yajun's words did not work, but caused a more violent tremor.
"That's not right!"
As if he suddenly noticed something, Feng Chun quickly stood up, walked around the dining table, came to Li Kun's seat, shook off the chair in front of him with one hand, and leaned down.
I saw Li Kun curled up at the bottom of the table, his whole body shaking violently, his hands pinching his neck, his eyes turned up, his face was blood-red, and the corners of his mouth began to overflow with white foam......
Zhang Fa and Zhao Yajun also noticed something unusual at this time, and hurriedly gathered around to check.
Suddenly, Li Kun stopped his movements and froze there, motionless like a sculpture.
"Bang ......" Li Kun's hands fell firmly to the floor.
............
The old-fashioned wall clock on the wall began to strike when the scene was not in sight......
"Boom...... Boom...... Boom...... Boom...... Boom...... Boom...... Boom...... Boom...... Boom. ”
The same tone, the same time interval, the percussion of nine chimes, echoed through the hall.
............
At nine o'clock in the evening, Li Kun stopped all movements after convulsing violently and foaming at the mouth.
Surrounded by flue-cured tobacco and a copper lighter......
Zhang Fa and Zhao Yajun froze in place, motionless.
Feng Chun put his finger on Li Kun's nostrils, and after a while, he hurriedly touched Li Kun's neck. Then he stood up suddenly, picked up the wine glass used by Li Kun and sniffed it, and then frowned.
Zhao Yajun followed his example, and also picked up the wine glass to pretend to smell it.
"Put it down, it's poisonous!" Feng Chun yelled loudly.
Zhao Yajun was frightened and his hand shook.
"Smack......
The cup fell to the ground and shattered......
"You ......" Feng Chun's eyes widened angrily, "Forget it......" At this moment, he has no reason or time to blame a person who doesn't know.
"Hurry up and call the police, hurry, hurry!" After saying this, Feng Chun turned his head in all directions, and then hurriedly ran to the location of the villa door to observe.
He glanced at Zhang Fa and Zhao Yajun, and said faintly: "Li Kun has been confirmed dead, and the murderer put potassium cyanide into his wine glass without us knowing. ”
"We ...... Should...... Could it be poisoned too......" Zhang Fa hurriedly asked.
"Probably not, potassium cyanide is extremely poisonous, a small dose is enough to kill, if we drink it, I'm afraid we will be the same as him now." Feng Chun pointed at Zhang Fa and said.
Back then, after Feng Chungang was transferred to the criminal police team, the first case he came into contact with: the murder case in Yinkuang Village.
At that time, the murderer used potassium cyanide, which has a unique smell and is absolutely not wrong.
"Telephone...... My phone is out of signal...... You...... What about yours......" Zhao Yajun said hurriedly.
When the two heard this, they hurriedly took out their mobile phones to check, and sure enough, they all showed no signal.
"Zhang Fa, what's going on?" Feng Chun asked.
"You ask me, I don't know!" Zhang Fa clapped his hands helplessly and said: "Oh, by the way, when I just bought this woodland, this place is indeed very weak mobile phone signal, and then the family maid found a relative of the communication company and installed a signal booster for me, which was hung outside the bedroom wall on the second floor where we went just now." Zhang Fa said.
"I don't usually come to live here, this place is what I bought to play, I feel that the scenery here is beautiful, isolated, and the retirement should be good. You didn't have to choose a secluded place, so I chose this place. Zhang Fa added.
"Besides...... Even if there is a signal, do you really dare to call the police about this?" Zhang Fa stared at Feng Chun and said faintly......
I almost forgot......
yes, I don't dare.
It was another life-and-death decision, but this time, he didn't have the opportunity to choose to be a good person.
Calm down, calm down, since there is no turning back, then here, once again bury the crisis deep underground!
"It seems that the murderer was on the second floor in advance and destroyed the signal booster, and I was thinking just now that the maid had no reason to open the window in winter, and forgot to close it tightly. Zhang Fa's eyes suddenly lit up when he said this, and he continued:
"I think the murderer must still be hiding in a corner of this house at the moment, because I found that the doors and windows on the first floor are locked inside, and the murderer must not have left this house, and I dare to conclude that he must be on the first floor at this moment!"
"Second floor...... Didn't the window on the second floor open just now, could the murderer have escaped at that time?" Zhang Fa hurriedly asked.
"Definitely not, first of all, after Zhao Yajun came, we never left the first floor, the murderer wanted to poison, where is his timing? Secondly, people will have convulsions and die within a few minutes after taking potassium cyanide, we have been delayed upstairs for so long, if the murderer had been poisoned in advance and jumped out of the window to escape, then Li Kun would have died of poison before going upstairs. ”
Speaking of this, Feng Chun paused, took a deep breath, and continued: "So, there is only one possibility, after the murderer destroyed the signal booster, he deliberately did not close the window, and then quickly hid in other rooms, waiting for the wind to push open the window and make the doll's laughter, he knew that we were bound to enter the room to check, and the murderer took the opportunity to come out and secretly added potassium chloride to Li Kun's wine, and then quietly hid it. ”
The tight reasoning made Zhang Fa and Zhao Yajun tingle when they heard it, is this person really the Feng Chun they know......
It's really a natural material to be a policeman, fate is really good at playing tricks on people, such a thoughtful person, so suitable for his profession, what prompted them to come together was betrayal.
It's really a human comedy.
Who can tell what is absolutely right and what is purely wrong......
Feng Chun is right, the murderer is still in this villa at the moment, spying on his next prey.
A brutal hunt is about to begin.
And it has become his hunting ground.
