XVIII. Listening
This is actually not what makes Gao Jin the most depressed, even if it lasts for a short time, it is still acceptable if there are enough of them. But with his current ability, he can only condense one spiritual power bullet a day.
In other words, the next mission will greatly test his hit rate and ability to escape. If you can't solve the problem with one shot, then you have to retreat.
Loading the bullet into the wheel, looking at the other seven empty bullet holes, he couldn't help but laugh at himself: "Hey, this is the rhythm of the lethal wheel, let's see who is more unlucky." ”
I looked at the wall clock on the wall, and it was past ten o'clock in the morning. Gao Jin quietly left the ward, without attracting anyone's attention, and walked out of the hospital very easily. All the wounds on his body are healed now, and the hospital naturally can't stay any longer. Otherwise, Dean Chen would not have to treat him as if he was a monster and take him to dissect.
Standing at the entrance of the hospital, Gao Jin identified a direction and strolled. His goal this time was to go to the place where Zhao Da found the horse-headed monster to investigate. The relevant information and the specific address of that place, he had already obtained from the "Galactic Star".
Speaking of which, this pair of "Galactic Stars" is so powerful that it is incomprehensible. It can be said that it is a portable super terminal, which can record the image of the action in real time and teleport it back to the spirit world. It can also automatically download the mission information conveyed by the spiritual world and display it in the form of a light curtain.
To communicate with Gler, who is in the spirit realm, you also need to communicate with the Guò Galactic Star. Others, including the ability to convert living beings into energy bodies. It is the effect that Zhao Da can penetrate buildings and make it invisible to mortals. It's all the magic of this pair of Galactic Stars.
However, at present, Gaojin can only turn on the function of receiving consultations, and even the function of communication cannot be turned on, and the others cannot be used. It made him feel a little depressed.
When he knew the location of the horse-headed monster's evil, Gao Jin was a little surprised. Because he was actually familiar with this place, he had been there not long ago, and it was actually where his colleague Xiaoding lived. Located in the former cotton mill dormitory in the old town of Lingjiang City, an old-fashioned community with ten seven-story residential buildings.
Gao Jin remembered what Xiao Ding said when he asked him to replace him on duty that day. It seems to mention that there is a pervert in his community. It seems that this guy is connected to his own goals.
However, the information currently available is very limited, and the action is somewhat aimless. In the case of limited time, it is necessary to intensify the collection of relevant clues.
Gao Jin was thinking as he walked down the street.
What did the horse-headed monster do, why did it choose to be in that place? And according to the information of the spirit world, those monsters are usually killing, and they will not leave any living mouth at all. This time, why didn't it kill anyone? Or that it kills, but not where it was found.
In this way, things are a bit eyebrow-raising. Suppose someone dies, and if the body is found, then there will definitely be news coming out. If it has not been found, then the body should still be at the scene.
So, Gao Jin stopped a taxi. He sat in the car and just gave the address. The driver's eldest brother immediately asked curiously: "Little brother, did you also go to the cotton mill to listen to the news?" ”
Gao Jin was surprised when he heard it, and said in his heart I didn't say what I was doing, how did he know? He replied casually, "No, I'm looking for a friend." ”
The driver's eldest brother was driving, but his mouth was not idle, and he smiled: "Yes." Haha, where is it really messy these days, I thought you were a reporter for some kind of newspaper. ”
When Gao Jin heard this, his eyes lit up, he became interested, and asked, "What happened?" How I haven't heard anyone talk about it. ”
"No, you've never heard of anything like that? Hey, I'm suing you, that was a few days ago, except for two big cases in a row. "The driver's eldest brother is very talkative, foaming at the mouth, and seems a little excited.
"Big case? Where will there be any big cases? Gao Jin was very curious. He knew how to get the driver in front of him to tell the story, as long as he kept a half-believing attitude.
"Don't say it, it's a big case. The other day, I don't know if it was Friday or Saturday, I forgot. There is an aunt who went up to the balcony of Building 7 to dry the quilt, guess what? She found five bodies in the rental house on the roof, and she fainted on the spot. "The driver was like witnessing it.
"The top floor? Five corpses? Gao Jin asked, "Who are they?" Was it killed? ”
"It wasn't killed, it was five young men, and I heard that they all died of drug overdoses. Tell me, what is it bad for such a big person to do and run away to take drugs. Isn't that death? The driver's eldest brother was a little angry.
"I see, drugs are really harmful." Gao Jin's heart lit up. I thought to myself, yes, this is the clue I was looking for.
"yes, there are still a lot of drugs left at the scene of the accident. However, this is not the strangest thing, and the next case is really bizarre. The driver began to dance with his eyebrows.
Gao Jin hurriedly asked, "What is the matter?" ”
The driver's eldest brother smiled evilly and said, "That aunt woke up and called the police." When the police arrived, they immediately cordoned off the entire neighborhood for investigation. You'd never think what this check would find. ”
"Found what? You won't find another body, will you? Gao Jin asked rhetorically.
The driver's eldest brother smiled a little obscenely, and said: "No one expected that three big girls would be found in the basement of that building, and they were all undressed and bare-assed." Hey, hey, hey. ”
"Basement?" Gao Jin asked, "Are they also addicted to drugs?" ”
"It's not." The driver's smile was already a little disgusting, and he said, "The three big girls were locked up, stripped of their clothes, and chained. Hehe, I was caught by a pervert, you know. ”
"There's such a thing! It really doesn't make sense. Did the pervert catch it? Gao Jin asked.
The driver shook his head and sighed, "The pervert fainted in the basement at that time, and the police were caught as soon as they came." It's a pity, I heard that those three girls are very beautiful......"
As he spoke, the taxi had arrived at its destination. Gao Jin paid the fare and got out of the car. This is the old town, the streets are not wide, and there are many vendors setting up stalls on both sides.
Gao Jin got a lot of useful clues from the driver, which proved that his previous inference was reasonable. After Zhao Da found the horse-headed monster, a fight ensued, and the person who was manipulated by it lost consciousness. The situation in the basement was also recorded by the Galactic Star, and Gao Jin had already seen it before, and there was no clue to where.
Now his best hope of finding clues is in the balcony rental house in Building 7, where the bodies of five drug addicts were found. Because it's quite possible that these people died at the hands of the monster, not from drugs. The drugs left at the scene may have been used by the monster to psychedelize people.
However, Gao Jin did not plan to go upstairs to check the scene. He thought in his heart that if these things happened, there should be a lot of news and gossip. In this day and age, network information is quite developed. There are several local website forums in Lingjiang, and countless netizens post some news on them every day.
Looking around, there is an Internet café not far away. In this kind of old town, there are many black Internet cafes hidden in the streets and alleys. There are several in the community where Gao Jin lives, and he is naturally no stranger to this.
An hour later, Gao Jin walked out of the Internet café. Thanks to the development of the Internet, all kinds of information are available in the website forums that everyone participates in. He found a lot of details about the two cases, far more detailed than the taxi driver had told.
The origins of the five men in the rental house on the rooftop have been found. The five men were of different ages and identities, and not all of them were young people. Among them were car mechanics in their 40s, high school students who were still in school, and the other three also had regular jobs. It seems that there are no common features.
Three days ago, at noon on the day of Gaojin's accident, the five men were found dead in the rooftop rental house of Building 7 of the cotton mill's dormitory. The rental house is a wooden house built by the residents on the top floor to rent out for profit, and other residential buildings also have similar buildings.
The police issued a notice on the case, which stated that the five deceased died unexpectedly due to drug overdose, damage to the cranial nerves, and rapid failure of body organs. They were addicted to a mixture of drugs that contained large amounts of "scopolamine". This is a tranquilizer that is often used for surgical anesthesia, but can be fatal when used in slightly larger amounts.
Moreover, through a detailed examination of the scene, no traces of a sixth person were found in the rental house, so the possibility of his murder was ruled out. It was judged to be an accident that caused death due to drug abuse.
However, there are also several posts online about the families of the deceased. The family members all stated that the deceased did not know each other before, and they had never taken drugs. Such a bizarre accidental death is unbearable for the family members to be grief-stricken.
As for the case in the basement, the three victims have a lot in common. They were accosted by the criminals in different dance halls, and then they were bewitched by him, and they didn't remember what happened next. When he regained his senses, he found that he was locked in an iron cage, so he desperately shouted for help.
It also happened that the police cordoned off the community and were investigating the clues of the rooftop case in the community. As a result, someone found the cry for help, and the three people were rescued. At the same time, the unconscious culprit was captured at the scene.
Based on the information he had gathered, Gao Jin added the information he had obtained from the spirit world to organize it. So, we get an inference:
The horse-headed monster and its accomplices are performing some kind of ritual, and they can use various strange and mystical rituals to gain certain abilities. So, they killed five men. It is possible that drugs have completely deprived them of their sanity and then withdrawn their souls from their bodies.
