Chapter 1: The Seventh Murder
In the cramped and stuffy room, Feng Cheng watched the old man's sharp knife turn back and forth on the candle flame, and finally couldn't suppress the irritability in his heart and asked, "Boss, can you start?"
The old man snorted contemptuously, and motioned for the lockdown to remove the white cloth from the corpse.
The lockdown has been done for more than ten years, and I have seen some broken hands and feet on weekdays, and now this body, it is said that it has been soaked in water for almost three days and three nights before it was discovered, thinking of the appearance of the body swelling and deformed after being soaked in water, and then thinking of this serial murder case, the murderer's special hobby of killing people and taking bones, the lockdown feels a little disgusting.
His heart was ruthless, and his hands were straining, and a large ball of cotton was revealed under the white cloth - the corpse that had just been fished out during the day was gone.
When he turned around from the lockdown, he saw the old man rolling his snow-white eyes, standing behind him with a face of blood foam, and the burning hot sharp knife was about to pierce his throat just now, and he subconsciously kicked his foot, and the soft-soled boots kicked on the old man's knee, making a "dangchang" sound, and his ankle seemed to hit some metal object.
Turning on his back, he reached the root of the wall. I didn't have time to react, seeing that the old man also turned around, the closure of the city was another turnaround, and with a "snap", as the back of the knife turned over the old man's shoulder, the candle in the room was extinguished.
Without hesitation, while the old man was still adapting to the darkness, he calculated the distance, kicked his feet, exerted force on his waist, and turned over the morgue with a "bang".
The old man also came back to his senses, raised his knife to chase, but his brain didn't know how to turn, and the same "dong" sound was knocked on the table, and the old man's anger suddenly came up, and he raised the sharp knife "dong dong" and stabbed the morgue three times in a row.
Sawdust flew, and the horizontal wooden thorns scratched a wound on the back of the old man's hand that was already covered with corpse spots, and blood splashed everywhere, but he didn't seem to know the pain, and the repeated assassination of the machine made the sound of "dong dong dong" reverberate in the house, and he couldn't bear to turn his head, he was suddenly stunned, because he suddenly realized that this sound was not made by the old man at all, it was in the black coffin behind him, something was going to come out.
"Knock, knock, knock—"
Feng Cheng sat up suddenly, cold sweat wet the light quilt, he raised his head, saw the spring rain in April, the white water stains on the beams of his house, and realized that it was just a dream.
couldn't help but curse secretly, thinking that the recent serial killings really had to be broken quickly, otherwise he would have to be tossed out of illness sooner or later. Complaining in his heart, two clear "dong dong" exploded in his ears, and he was so shocked that he almost didn't jump out of bed, and he had already touched the position of the saber in his hand, and then he heard Lao Zhang's movement by the door, "Master, Master!"
The closure of the city breathed a sigh of relief, remembering that it was late when the body was found yesterday, Yizhuang was on the mountain outside the city, and the county magistrate was worried that it would be inconvenient for the old man to enter and leave the city at night, so he said that he was not in a hurry, and let the closure be cleaned up early this morning, and then take Lao Zhang and Lao Zuo over. Now Lao Zhang is here, and that is about the old man who is ready to go, but ...... Feng Cheng rubbed his swollen temples and sighed, it has only been the fifth watch now, and the elderly don't sleep by themselves, do they still like to toss young people?
As soon as the lockdown opened, Lao Zhang's hand didn't brake and almost slapped him in the face, and he was pushed open by the lockdown hand, and he straightened his collar by the way, calmly and slowly. Lao Zhang was in a hurry, "Master, something happened to Weiyang Pavilion!"
The lockdown was stunned for a few seconds before asking, "It's still the same case?"
Lao Zhang nodded subconsciously, but immediately shook his head again, "I don't know what to do, the county lord said that you should go over and have a look first, and if you can catch up, it will be examined with yesterday's corpse." ”
The lockdown couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth, and his eyebrows were screwed up, listen to this, now the autopsy has to be rushed, right? I wanted to complain, but when I saw that Lao Zhang was looking forward and nervous, and even eager to try, he couldn't help it, showed his appearance as a teacher, and said quietly, "I know, you go and find a job first." ”
Seeing that Lao Zhang ran away in a hurry, the heart of the closed city sank, and the scene in the dream still lingered in his mind, he thought that Weiyang Pavilion actually ran to the Qinglou. Looking up at the faint sun in the clouds, it is exactly the appearance of the future.
This month, the seventh homicide.
