029 A post-mortem in the true sense of the word
Twilight once again swept through Pingjiang County, and everything fell silent in the night.
The county government office in Pingjiang County was brightly lit, and figures were busy back and forth in the autopsy room, carrying corpses one by one.
Next to the wall was a steel ring coiled in the shape of a thin snake, which was stained with blood and exuded a strong smell of blood.
The late autumn night was extremely cold, Gu Donglin was wearing a thin pajamas, looking at the dead corpses covered under the white cloth, his face was gloomy.
In the only compartment of the autopsy room, there was a yellowed table, the light of the oil lamp flickering, and in this faint light, the human skins were barbed by iron hooks and hung on the beams of the room, like a flesh-colored leather curtain.
"Is the death of a person from Pingjiang County?"
Zhu Tianshu asked.
Master Wu nodded, and rummaged through the name book in his hand, "After verification, all the skins are from the high-ranking foreign mansions." ”
"What about high-ranking outsiders, there is such a big thing in the house, and no one has to notify the family?" Zhu Tianshu was a little angry.
"The whole family is here." Guo Zhukuai's face was hidden in the darkness, and he couldn't see his expression.
His voice seemed to be burned by strong wine, and he was extremely hoarse, his body trembled slightly, and his mind was uneasy.
Zhu Tianshu was stunned for a while, and he didn't know how to speak for a long time.
Thirteen people from one door to the same door were all killed in this cruel way, and they were also strung together by wire.
He clenched his fists, a little regretful.
I regret that my methods of punishing the murderer were too gentle.
"Where's Lord Liu? She should be able to see more. Master Wu asked.
"I'm here." A heavy pant sounded as the door was opened, and Liu Ruzhi, who looked a little embarrassed, stepped in.
She glared at Zhu Tianshu fiercely, and Zhu Tianshu found that the saber on her waist was missing, and there were still many fine wounds on her body.
Apparently, her pursuit failed, and she was wounded.
Although it was expected, seeing this scene, Zhu Tianshu didn't have any special feelings.
It has taken a lot of effort to deal with the other eight by himself, and he will definitely not be able to catch up for such a long time, coupled with the ability of the remnant tiger, if he wants to kill, he will have to work hard.
In comparison, it was obviously a better choice for him to kill these evil beasts.
"There are a lot of sharp knife marks on the human skin, presumably as Master Zhu said, some of them are just experimental materials, they are violent, and they do not have the superb skinning methods of murderers."
"Also, what about the two headless beast corpses?" Liu Ruzhi looked at Zhu Tianshu.
The headless boar and the carcass of the giant beetle that she saw in Silent Hill before were important clues in this case, and on the way back, she found that both bodies had disappeared.
It is unlikely that they will disappear out of thin air, and it is likely that Zhu Tianshu arranged someone to transport them back.
"In the backyard of the yamen, these two corpses do not belong to humans, and Lord Gu is unwilling to investigate." Guo Zhu quickly responded.
His thoughts are somewhat similar to Gu Donglin's, but Gu Donglin is afraid of trouble, plus he instinctively resists when he sees a strange giant corpse, and Guo Zhukuai is hateful, all beasts, there is no good thing!
"Take me to the backyard to have a look, and arrange for someone to take care of it here, so that no one can steal it." Liu Ruzhi commanded.
"Lord Liu, why don't you rest first, your injury looks a little serious." Guo Zhukuai said with concern.
"Noise, are you questioning my judgment?" Liu Ruzhi glared at him, and Guo Yu quickly closed his mouth, not daring to say more.
He had seen the combat power of the woman in front of him with his own eyes, and if she really wanted to fight, no one in the yamen was her opponent.
"Master Zhu, why are you still stunned here?" Liu Ruzhi was a little angry.
This guy obviously has strength, so he has to pretend to be weak, if he had made a move earlier, the situation would not have been like this.
She was very anxious in her heart, she couldn't contain the fire in the paper, many county residents saw the yamen transporting corpses today, and tomorrow there will definitely be county citizens who will make trouble in the yamen, and the matter must not be hidden.
When the time comes, the people will panic, and maybe there will be a situation where the whole family will be relocated, and the murderer will take advantage of the situation, and there will be more casualties.
Moreover, the people sent by Dali Temple to investigate the case will arrive tomorrow, Zhu Tianshu can not care, but Liu Ruzhi cannot.
She came here to prove herself, not to bear the sin of negligence and ruin her future.
So today, there has to be a result.
Zhu Tianshu leaned against the wall, motionless.
No one knows what's going on in his heart at the moment.
Liu Ruzhi ignored him, gave an order, and left the autopsy room directly.
After the winner left, Zhu Tianshu finally moved.
Master Wu withdrew his gaze from those human skins and turned to look at Zhu Tianshu.
He found that Zhu Tianshu squatted down, first picked up the circle of bloody wire, followed the silk head, and his fingers ran over the silk body little by little, until he swept the silk tail, and his expression changed.
Zhu Tianshu shook his head, stood up, and walked towards the placed corpse again.
Gu Donglin happened to walk in and saw a scene that made him a little sick to his stomach.
The corpses that had already given birth to maggots and the heavy stench of corpses had lost their wraps in the shroud, filling the room with a smell of decay.
Zhu Tianshu was expressionless and stroked every inch of the skinless corpse with his hands, sometimes bowing his head in thought, sometimes shaking his head and sighing.
"What are you doing?" Gu Donglin resisted the urge to vomit and asked.
"Don't bother me." Zhu Tianshu interrupted his inquiry and continued his movements.
There was no change in his expression, but the fingers embedded in the flesh groped, looking very strange, like the butcher who touched the bones and dismembered the corpse, intoxicated.
One by one, the corpses touched over, and when they arrived at the child's corpse, Zhu Tianshu's expression suddenly changed.
His brown-yellow eyes were like cat's eyes, and the black circles in his pupils shrank suddenly, and his whole person's momentum changed greatly.
In a village dozens of kilometers away from Pingjiang County, a child who was sitting on a beam of a house shaking his white ankles fell down violently as if frightened, and was about to break his tendons.
A slender tail four feet long slowly stretched out from his tail vertebrae, rolled up on the thick beam, and hung his body upside down, his body came to a sudden halt in the air, and his forehead touched the bottom lightly without any damage.
"Huh?" The young man sitting at the table reading by the light raised his head, looked at the child who made a lot of noise, and sighed softly.
"Someone is spying on us." The child spoke, and he withdrew his tail, leaped forward, and landed steadily.
When I tried to explore again, the feeling of being watched just now seemed to rise and fall like a tide, and disappeared again in an instant.
He had doubts in his heart and asked, "Is there something wrong with the remnants of the tigers?" ”
The young man lowered his head and did not make a sound, but focused on the ancient book in his hand.
He didn't answer the child's question, but just muttered something he didn't understand, "Everything has a beginning and an end." ”
"If you know what to do, you will be short."
The lone lamp flickered, the wick burned out, and the lamp went out.
