Chapter 15: Pupils (4)

At this time, the door of the living room had been closed, and not long after Li Naijing sat on the sofa, Shen Xing walked out with slippers, but did not go to the sofa, but went to the bathroom first.

After coming out of the bathroom, he came to sit down on the sofa, he was wearing pajamas when he went to bed last night, and he didn't change his clothes at the moment, but he had already put the carved eyeball on the bed just now.

Before entering Shen Xing's room, Li Naijing had already checked in the alley behind the building, and she had also checked Lin Wanru's body, especially the orbital part that had no eyeballs.

So she didn't talk to Shen Xing around the bend, but went straight to the point: "After you encountered Lin Wanru's corpse last night, what was her way of walking?" ”

Shen Xing didn't hide it, thought about it, and said, "It's as if your head is being pulled forward by something, and your limbs don't seem to be too hard." ”

"Did you notice anything unusual about her body?" Li Naijing's eyes kept staring at Shen Xing when she asked.

Shen Xing said: "Eyes, one of her eyes is blood-red, and it is quite wide, it looks terrifying." ”

"Is that the wood carving you were holding in your hand just now?" Li Naijing said suddenly.

Shen Xing was stunned for a moment, and replied truthfully: "Yes, maybe because of my profession, I will naturally want to express the things that impress me in the form of wood carving." ”

Li Naijing nodded, expressed understanding, and continued to ask, "After Lin Wanru's body fell, why did you run downstairs?" ”

"I'm worried that other unsuspecting residents will approach, because I have seen Lin Wanru's body with my own eyes, so I think she is a fraud, and if someone approaches at that time out of curiosity, it will be dangerous." Shen Xing said nonsense.

"Someone upstairs saw you and said you were crouching in front of the body and seemed to be checking something." Li Naijing asked again, with a little more scrutiny in her eyes.

Shen Xing nodded, his expression couldn't see any difference, and replied calmly: "Because I found that her blood-red eyes were missing." ”

"You opened her eyelids and found out?" Li Naijing asked.

Shen Xing is not a fool, he must not answer yes, otherwise it would be strange if the other party did not suspect this behavior.

"No, I wouldn't dare do that. When I got closer, the woman's eyelids were still open, but when I took a look, I saw that her left eyeball was gone. ”

"Did you notice anything else unusual when you arrived in the alley?" Li Naijing didn't seem to doubt it and continued to ask.

Shen Xing remembered the dog: "That alley usually stinks, except for some stray dogs, few people usually go there." It was so late, and there was a dog there, but it seemed to scare him away when I went. ”

Li Naijing nodded, matched the situation she understood, and then didn't ask any more.

Shen Xing thinks that if the disappearance of the eyeball is related to the leper dog, that is, if it is eaten by that guy, it is none of his business.

Judging from Li Naijing's current questioning, including Lin Wanru's corpse and the bloodshot eyeballs, in the eyes of others, these pictures have caused a strong visual impact on Shen Xing. That's why he noticed the eyeballs and made wood carvings.

It's just a normal reaction of an ordinary person to something they fear.

But if Shen Xing showed too much attention to that eyeball, or paid too much attention to it beyond imagination, the sheriff of the investigation team would definitely still suspect that he was hiding some secret.

Li Naijing thought for a moment, took out her mobile phone and called Shen Xing, and after the phone rang, she immediately hung up and said, "Save my phone, if there is anything abnormal around you in the past two days, contact me immediately." ”

Shen Xing didn't know why she had her own mobile phone number, but his mobile phone was still in the bedroom, and he couldn't help but ask, "Is your investigation team specifically responsible for dealing with this kind of special case similar to corpse fraud?" ”

Li Naijing didn't answer him directly, stood up, and said, "Compared with the sheriffs you often see, our investigation team has always been understaffed, and it is inconvenient to disclose what cases are handled for the time being. ”

After the words fell, Li Naijing walked to the door of the living room and opened the door, at this time, at the door outside the house, there was still a young man wearing a black short-sleeved T-shirt.

After seeing Li Naijing come out, the man took two steps back to the right to make room for her, obviously waiting outside.

And in the direction of the stairs leading to the fifth floor, the back of a man disappeared around the corner, and it seemed that he was just going upstairs.

Li Naijing pointed to the man's back and asked the young man waiting for him, "Who is this person?" ”

The young man glanced in the direction of the staircase leading to the fifth floor: "It should be the upstairs resident, carrying a supermarket shopping bag, just passing through here." ”

Li Naijing didn't ask anymore, turned to Shen Xing who was following behind her, and said, "It's not for nothing that Lin Wanru contacted you. We will continue to investigate this case, and if you find anything suspicious during this period, please do not go downstairs alone like last night, and be sure to notify us first. ”

Shen Xing didn't speak, just nodded.

After seeing Li Naijing and her colleagues go downstairs, he slowly closed the door, during which he seemed to hear the friction sound of plastic shopping bags coming from upstairs.

"Isn't it for nothing that Lin Wanru contacted me?"

Shen Xing silently repeated Li Naijing's words, frowning and thinking for a moment, but there was still no clue why Lin Wanru came to find him.

At this moment, his stomach suddenly growled.

Only then did Shen Xing realize that he hadn't eaten for a long time.

Looking at the time, it was almost time for dinner, thinking that he had been at home for a long time and went out to move his body, he did not order takeout, but took a shower and changed his clothes, and then locked the door and left.

When he came out of the staircase on the first floor, Shen Xing happened to see Uncle Wang, who lived on the first floor and had always been known for his fiery temper, scolding there, holding a dirty shovel with filth in his hand.

"Uncle Wang, you see what you are...... Who you off again? Shen Xing asked with a smile.

Uncle Wang wore a white old man's shirt and loose shorts, raised the shovel in his hand, pointed to a position at the corner of the stairs that still left traces, and said in a loud voice: "I don't know what kind of mold our community has touched in the past two days, yesterday the girl surnamed Lin upstairs just died during the day, and I heard that there was a thief in the building at night, and today there was suddenly a dead dog at the staircase." I just shoveled this dead dog out and cleaned the ground, so damn bad! ”

There was a reason why he was so angry, because the place where the dead dog was lying was right in front of his house.

It seems that Uncle Wang is not even ready to ask for this shovel.

"Dead dog?" Shen Xing was stunned for a moment and asked, "Where did you leave the dead dog?" ”

"Where else can I throw it? The garbage bin behind the street! ”

"Just as I'm going to pass over there, uncle, your shovel is dirty too, do you want to? Don't let me help you lose it. Shen Xing said.

Uncle Wang stuffed it to him: "I forgot to throw it just now, I'm sorry for you, Xiao Shen!" ”
