Chapter 19: The Murder of Skinning

"Huh?"

Tang Qi looked up in surprise and immediately saw a large group of students, men and women, mixed with many faculty and staff, all rushing towards the side area of the main campus, and they could see a mixture of excitement and fear on their faces as they ran.

Something happened!

As soon as this thought crossed Tang Qi's heart, a few boys who ran not far away quickly told Tang Qi what had happened by shouting loudly.

"Hurry up, hurry up, I heard that there was a homicide in the school building district. ”

"It's true, several girls died, and they were all said to be hot girls on the cheerleading squad. ”

"It seems that he died a terrible death, and the skin of his whole body has been stripped off by the murderer. ”

Tang Qi, who was about to walk straight over, suddenly stopped after hearing the last sentence,

As soon as his feet moved, he also followed the crowd towards the school building area.

The layout of St. Thorn High School, in addition to the main campus, has a large area occupied by the school building.

After all, it is the best high school in Mercer City, and there are a lot of students, so there are some students who choose to live on campus, and nine out of ten are concentrated in the school building, usually a dormitory for several people.

Like Tang Qi, it is rare to rent a small building by himself.

Who let him now control that large amount of property by himself, and the rest of the family, even if the family is well-off, may not be like this.

When he arrived at the school building area, Tang Qi immediately saw a large group of people blocked in a red brick building.

The place where the murder took place, on the first floor, the sixth room, the police had already arrived first, and set up a cordon outside the room, and many sturdy policemen formed a human wall to block the behavior of some crazy students trying to get in.

A strong smell of blood wafted out.

Even through the crowd, Tang Qi could see through some gaps that the black blood that had coagulated out of the open door.

This terrifying scene does not stop these students who are in adolescence and have a strong hobby of curiosity.

The faculty and staff who were mixed in with the crowd were all ugly.

But the students had a lively discussion, and Tang Qi could tell from the flying looks and the few cries they had when they talked about the tragedy.

First, several deceased people are afraid that their popularity is not very good.

Second, the state of death, or the way of death, is terrible.

Standing in the outer area for a second, Tang Qi suddenly squeezed into the crowd of onlookers, without using any brute force, just using strength under his feet, and successfully squeezed to the front in three times and two times.

The best location, right in front of the open door.

A glance swept out, and Tang Qi saw most of the scene in the room.

The deceased, four in all, were all girls.

None of them were clothed, and they were lying on their beds, and the unimaginable amount of blood directly soaked the beds, and then dripped to the ground, converging into a small stream, flowing towards the door, and finally solidifying at the doorway.

How to die?

It is unknown for the time being, as all the skin on their bodies has been peeled off.

This can be seen because of the white cloth they are wearing, and there are also a pair of arms exposed, and the skin disappears, revealing the bright red muscular arms.

However, it is also covered with a white cloth, otherwise if it is really what Tang Qi thinks, I am afraid that this group of curious students who are excitedly discussing will spit it out directly after seeing it, and they will vomit up all the meals for three days and three nights.

This can be attested to by a few cleaners who had vomited to the point of being unconscious in a corner of the cordon.

Tang Qi did not stare at the corpse being carried away like most students, but quickly took in the layout and details of the entire room.

Soon, Tang Qi seemed to see something, his pupils shrank slightly, and his face immediately became a little gloomy.

Although he recovered quickly, a trace of doubt remained in his eyes.

After all, it was a brutal homicide, and it happened in a place like St. Thorn High School, and when this case spreads, you can imagine how much impact it will have in Mercer City.

For this reason, the pressure on both the police and the school is enormous.

A very tacit understanding broke out of efficiency, the police cordoned off the scene, one after another experts arrived, and at the same time, the white-haired old principal also walked in front of the students, announcing that classes would not be suspended today, and all students would attend classes as usual.

In addition to temporarily blocking the message to gain more processing time, this is more about investigating the murderer.

In particular, the discoverers, as well as the students who lived in the same building as the deceased, directly entered the stage of "being questioned".

The rest of the students were evacuated to class.

Tang Qi was among them, and before leaving, his eyes narrowed slightly, but he didn't look at the crime scene again, but scanned the crowd of onlookers, as if he wanted to find something.

Unfortunately, it didn't.

With a faint look of disappointment in his eyes, he turned around and was about to go to the main campus with the other students.

But at this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind.

"Wait!"

"You, wait a minute. ”

Suddenly stopped, Tang Qi turned his head with a puzzled expression, just in time to see a tall female policeman walking over with a few subordinates.

The policewoman was wearing a burgundy leather jacket, tight jeans underneath, a model-like figure but could not hide the heroic aura on her body at all, under the red hair, there was a delicate and beautiful face, and a pair of eyes were more mature and sharp.

"Hello, I'm Sheriff Stana, I have a few questions for you, if you don't mind, let's go over there and talk, shall we?"

As soon as the woman came up, she took out her papers, pointed to the temporary rest area in the hall, and then made the above request.

As a student who received this treatment, a look of helplessness flashed on Tang Qi's face, and he didn't have to think about it to know it.

There will be this treatment, which should be the reason for his tightly wrapped hands.

As long as any police officer finds a person with an injured hand at the scene of the murder, he will immediately arrest him and inquire about the investigation.

Tang Qi didn't think that his appearance as an ordinary student could be exempted from this treatment.

But before Tang Qi could speak, the principal on the side walked over, first glanced at Tang Qi carefully, and then affirmed something, before turning to the female sheriff and said, "Sheriff Stanna, this student has no guardian, if you want to talk to him, you must be accompanied by the representative of the school's guardian." ”

said this sentence, naturally because the principal knew about Tang Qi's existence.

This should be the reason for Mr. Ronald in the first place.

However, the favor in the middle can only make the principal say this, Tang Qi never thought that just such a small relationship could make the principal of a famous high school vigorously defend himself, especially when it was involved in such a murder case with a bad impact.

It's good to be able to get a guardian representative to accompany you.

As for the exemption from talking, looking at the serious face of the female sheriff in front of her, it must be impossible.

When his thoughts turned here, Tang Qi calmly stopped the principal from calling the guardian's representative, and then said lightly: "It's okay, I can represent myself, and I am willing to cooperate with the work of the police, after all, it was my classmates who were killed." ”

After speaking, Tang Qi took the initiative to walk into the hall.

Behind him, Sheriff Stanna, who saw Tang Qi's movements, saw her eyes sharper at this moment.
