It takes at least half an hour's drive from where Pan Shiqiang lives to the grove in the North Outer Ring that Pang Yan said.

Along the way, Pan Shiqiang kept urging the driver to hurry up, and then hurry up, and finally urged the taxi driver to be impatient, saying Do you think this is a rocket, can it fly?

Pan Shiqiang didn't care about the driver's cynicism at all, he was so anxious, he really hoped that the taxi could be turned into a rocket, so that he could come to Lian's side in seconds.

On the way, he called Pang Yan again and asked if they had arrived, and Pang Yan said that he was still waiting for the police and would come immediately.

Finally, the taxi came to the intersection of the North Outer Ring Road and Fenghuang 1st Road, and there was indeed a large dense wooded area.

The location here is remote, there is not a single village around, not a single car or a single figure, and there are no street lights, so you can only barely distinguish the direction with the help of the hazy moonlight.

Pan Shiqiang was anxious and decided not to wait any longer, and after sending the taxi away, he turned on the flashlight on his mobile phone and walked into the woods alone.

The ground was bumpy, and Pan Shiqiang kept walking forward and going deeper.

Du Ziwei said that there is an abandoned forest ranger hut in this wood, as long as you find the hut, you can find the lotus!

What if Du Ziwei is all crazy talk? What if this is a lie that he casually said......

At this moment, Pan Shiqiang has no time to worry about these at all. The belief of desperately finding Lian had completely messed up his mind.

Run! Run!!

A little faster, a little faster!!

Fall, get up and keep running!

My foot twisted, and I limped and continued to run!

I accidentally hit a tree, I accidentally got scratched by grass and thorns, I don't care at all, keep running!

Where are you, damn ranger hut?

Hurry up!

Lian, hurry up and let me find you!!

Finally, the woods in front became sparse.

Finally, he saw a small clearing in front of him!

Finally, he saw the hut in the clearing!

The house was very small, about eight or nine square meters, made of adobe, very simple, with a dilapidated wooden door and a small window that was about to fall apart.

There was silence all around, and the occasional owl called sounded, and the appearance of such a hut in such an environment seemed ghostly and very infiltrating.

Pan Shiqiang was originally a very timid person, and he usually didn't even dare to walk at night when he was alone.

But now, he completely forgot his fear, and he rushed in like a wolf who had been hungry for three days and suddenly saw a lamb waiting to be slaughtered in front of him.

Bang!

He slammed the door open and entered.

"Lotus! Lotus!! ”

He held up his mobile phone and shone it in the room where he couldn't see his fingers, calling.

If Lian is really alive, if she is really still here, how can there be no light in the house?

This is a question that even a fool can think of, but Pan Shiqiang at this moment doesn't think about it at all, once a person has a mental breakdown, he is more like a fool than a fool, and more like a madman than a madman.

Poof!

He stumbled and fell to the ground, and his phone flew out of his hand.

In his panic, he fumbled around, trying to get up by the means.

Finally, he touched a round object, which seemed to have a little more ......

Feel the sensation in your hair!

Horrified, he struggled to crawl forward a few steps before finally picking up his phone.

He picked up his phone and shone it at the object he had just touched.

So, in the light of his mobile phone, he finally got his wish and saw Lian.

To be exact, I saw the head of the lotus.

Because Lotus's entire body was gone, and only one head remained.

"Lotus !!"

Pan Shiqiang let out a piercing scream of horror, and the roar shook the entire adobe house buzzing and crumbling.

"Young man, you're such a pervert."

At this moment, in the dark corner, a faint voice suddenly sounded.

This ghostly sudden sound frightened Pan Shiqiang half to death, and he screamed, and the phone almost fell again.

"Who ......?!"

As soon as he shouted these two words, a bright flashlight light shot straight through, making his eyes tingle and he couldn't open them anymore.

Then, the owner of the flashlight rushed up like a ghost, grabbed Pan Shiqiang's hair with one hand, and stuffed a small bottle into his mouth before he could close it with the other.

Grunt.

Before Pan Shiqiang could react, a bitter, unpleasant, disgusting and disgusting liquid was poured into his throat, unimpeded into his esophagus, and then into his stomach.

Pan Shiqiang struggled desperately, but he was still poured into a small half bottle.

"What did you pour me?!"

Pan Shiqiang knelt on the ground, retching vigorously in an attempt to spit out the disgusting liquid.

"Mouse medicine, the kind that is very easy to use." The other party laughed.

Just this sentence suddenly made Pan Shiqiang feel extremely familiar, and he shouted in horror-

"It's you! Prevent......!! ”

As soon as he shouted here, the opponent quickly threw a punch to the back of his neck, knocking him unconscious.

Poor Pan Shiqiang, who had just seen Lian's corpse, was tried to death before he had time to grieve.

The sneak attacker shone a flashlight, and unhurriedly turned the unconscious Pan Shiqiang with his rubber gloved hand and put him in a supine position.

Then, he put Pan Shiqiang's two hands on his chest, picked up Lian's dead head, and carefully stuffed it into his hands, looking as if Pan Shiqiang was asleep holding his head.

Then, he began to carefully use a flashlight to shine and inspect the hut, every corner and corner, every inch and every millimeter, carefully inspected.

After making sure that all traces of his presence here had been removed, he left satisfied, and walked away.

And poor Pan Shiqiang continued to be unconscious in the black abandoned ranger hut, still holding the lotus head in his arms.

The poisonous liquid corroded his internal organs all the time, leading him towards death step by step.

Maybe he should feel relieved at this moment, because he finally said goodbye to this dark world full of crises and cannibalism, and went to meet his beloved on the other side.

……

At ten o'clock the next morning, Du Jinse was chatting with several colleagues in the office, and Du Ziwei hurriedly ran in.

"Jinse, something is wrong!" As soon as he entered the door, he shouted with a solemn expression.

Du Jinse and several colleagues all looked at him suspiciously, thinking that this newly transferred colleague usually looked weird, as if the sky had nothing to do with him, what was wrong this time, what could make him react so much?

"A few young people went to the woods in the North Outer Ring to play cosplay, and found a male corpse in an abandoned ranger hut, and what was even more strange was that the male corpse was still holding a human head in his arms! The Forestry Bureau has spoken, let's hurry to the scene! ”

A male corpse holding a human head!

Two lives!

Everyone immediately realized the severity of the matter, and their faces changed drastically.

"Let's go!!"

Du Jinse got up and issued an order......

Twenty minutes later, Du Jinse arrived at the scene with a large number of people.

A large number of police officers from the local county bureau and the local police station had already arrived early and set up a cordon at the scene, but the criminal investigation work at the scene of the crime had not yet begun, and they were all waiting for Du Jinse and other professionals from the city bureau to come over.

Du Jinse got out of the car, habitually glanced around, thinking that this place was really remote enough, there were no people around, and there were no more than ten cars along the way.

Therefore, the police cordon is actually so-called, there are no onlookers at all, and all the people at the scene are all police.

Du Jinse put on his gloves and led the group towards the dilapidated little mud house.

She found that the ground around the earth house was densely covered with footprints, and she began to have a bad premonition that the crime scene inside the earth house might have been destroyed.

Sure enough, when she reached the door, she found that although the inside of the hut was very dry, there were many obvious footprints, which were obviously caused by the informant, the group of young people who were playing cosplay.

At that time, they didn't know what was in the house, and they didn't see the corpse until they broke in, the earthen house was already small, and the light was dim...... Du Jinse's thinking was running rapidly, restoring the scene at that time.

Du Jinse did not immediately walk in front of the corpse to check it, but only took a cursory look at it, and instructed the forensic doctor Liu Junming to conduct a preliminary autopsy, and other colleagues also took their places, took pictures, and measured them.

"Where's the informant?" Du Jinse turned his head and asked a colleague from the county bureau next to him.

"I'll take you outside." Colleague said.

"Let's go, let's go and see." Du Jinse saw Du Ziwei staring at the corpse thoughtfully, and greeted him.

Du Ziwei answered, and walked out side by side with Du Jinse.

"Look at the pensive look you just now, did you make a discovery?" Du Jinse asked in a low voice.

"The deceased was bleeding from all his orifices, foaming at the mouth, his face was dark gray, his face was distorted, and it looked like he had died of poisoning, and the poison ingested should have been very violent. In this way, I instinctively think of love killing, the general version is that the woman betrays the man, the man kills the woman in order to vent his anger and then dismemberes, and then commits suicide by holding her head......" Du Ziwei shrugged his shoulders and said with a relaxed face.

Du Jinse couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Your imagination is so rich, the identity of the deceased here has not been determined, you have figured out the ins and outs of the case." ”

"That is, I have seen so many cases that I am about to become a script." Du Ziwei said with a smile.

Then he coughed lightly again, and the expression on his face was serious:

"But one thing is more strange, people will be very painful after eating poison, this pain will lead people to instinctively struggle, writhing, in that case, it will leave obvious marks on the ground, but did you find it just now, the corpse is lying on its back, very peaceful, and there are no obvious traces of struggle and twisting around the corpse......"

This chapter was written too quickly and hastily, and it may be slightly changed tomorrow.
