Chapter 38: Sorrow
Seeing that the Taoist priest named Liu Zhenren was confidently walking towards this side step by step, Officer Yang and I became vigilant at the same time, carefully looking at this person, and the surrounding villagers were as if they had seen the savior, and they were all excited and eager to rush up to ask Liu Zhenren for an autograph.
Liu Zhenren quickly walked into the house, Zhao Tiezhu immediately picked up the axe and prepared to intercept it, but Liu Zhenren only smiled slightly and said: "Don't worry, your father's body doesn't need to be burned, with the deity, he can't do anything!" ”
I turned my head to look at Zhao Tiezhu and found that he seemed to know this Liu Zhenren, who originally didn't let anyone in, but at this time he actually put down the axe in his hand and nodded lightly to get out of the way.
The battle that was originally about to break out quietly ended with the arrival of Liu Zhenren, and the village chief, who had been hiding on the side, suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately stepped forward to greet Liu Zhenren with a smile, feeling as if he had met his own father.
Lin Yingxue sighed helplessly and said: "It's really ironic, as a policeman, I don't have the prestige of a Taoist priest, I think it's so sad." ”
Officer Yang also looked melancholy, nodded in agreement, and stood silently on the side smoking.
Seeing these two people so decadent, I suddenly became a little angry and said, "What? Are you going to throw in the towel? The reason why he has more prestige than us is because he has been in this village for a longer time, so he is so convincing and cheers up, this time I want to see if he can suppress the 'zombies', or if we can find the real murderer! ”
Liu Zhenren, accompanied by the village chief and Zhang Guozhong, came to the front of the two corpses, only to see Liu Zhenren's eyes wide with anger, and suddenly shouted without warning: "Demon! Look at the deity to surrender you! ”
Everyone was shocked by Liu Zhenren's voice, and all turned their eyes to Liu Zhenren, and saw that Liu Zhenren suddenly closed his eyes with one hand, and said something in his mouth, and with the other hand, he took out two pieces of yellow paper from his arms, and the yellow paper did not know what was painted with red paint, and it was constantly shaking from side to side above the two corpses.
When the villagers saw this scene, their eyes were eager to burst into Venus, and I watched with interest, I wanted to see what tricks he could come up with.
After Liu Zhenren chattered for a long time, he suddenly threw the two yellow talismans in his hand into the air, and before the yellow talisman fell, he grabbed the two corpses with both hands, and violently separated the two corpses on the spot, and then quickly caught the yellow talisman that was about to fall, one on the left and one on the left and one on the left, and immediately pasted it above the foreheads of the two corpses after catching it.
Not to mention anything else, Liu Zhenren's hand alone may not be able to do it without a few years of practice, and the village chief wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and said, "Liu Zhenren, what is going on?" ”
Liu Zhenren pretended to be deep, and sat on the kang with two corpses casually, and said in a deep voice: "The deity just pinched his fingers to calculate the cause and effect of this matter, some time ago, a demon sneaked into Black Mountain Village, secretly killed Lao Zhao, who had the weakest yang energy, and occupied his body. Come out in the middle of the night to kill people and collect souls. ”
Liu Zhenren said a set of things, and the villagers listened to it with relish, while I rolled my eyes and said in my heart, how can you make up nonsense and not make drafts? It's really easy to come by. There are people who believe in this kind of nonsense, if you really can communicate with the ghosts, please help me ask what number the lottery will open tomorrow.
The villagers praised Liu Zhenren's clever calculation, because Liu Zhenren's words instantly reminded them of the mysterious empty package express received by Zhao Tiezhu the day before Lao Zhao's death.
The village chief was convinced of this and immediately asked, "Then what should be done?" Please also ask the master for advice! ”
Liu Zhenren pretended to pinch his fingers for nothing, and only said after a few minutes: "It's okay, as long as the deity dispelles the demon, everything will return to the same as before, but..."
When Liu Zhenren said this, he suddenly showed embarrassment, and the village chief instantly understood what Liu Zhenren meant, and whispered a few words to Liu Zhenren, but I didn't hear it.
Although I didn't hear what they were saying, I also roughly guessed that this Liu Zhenren was definitely talking about the price, and looking at the expression of the village chief, it seemed that he had agreed.
This suddenly made me a little angry, and I was about to step forward to stop it, but Officer Yang on the side suddenly pulled me and whispered: "It's not good for our situation now, don't provoke the anger of the public, wait and see." If he asks for money, he will give it to him, and when the case is solved, I will let him spit out as much as he wants! ”
It seems that Officer Yang has more experience in this area, indeed, even if Liu Zhenren cheats the money of the villagers of Heishan Village, he will definitely not be able to escape the sight of the police, and I am indeed a little impulsive.
It seemed that the price had been negotiated over there, Liu Zhenren cleared his throat and said, "Okay, since this is the case, then the deity will start to open the altar today, and please ask the villagers to help carry these two corpses to a wide and secluded place." ”
To carry these two strange corpses, the villagers suddenly looked embarrassed, and Liu Zhenren smiled and said: "You don't have to be afraid, the demons in these two corpses have been suppressed by the Dao Fu of the deity, and they will not come out to do evil again, you can rest assured." ”
Liu Zhenren's words were like a reassuring pill, and no one in the villagers was afraid, so they rushed to the room, carrying the two corpses and leaving the family without knowing where to go, the village chief and Zhao Tiezhu also went together, and soon, the originally lively courtyard instantly became deserted.
"Ji Wen, what do you think of this Liu Zhenren?"
Seeing that everyone had left, Officer Yang asked me.
Naturally, I am very disdainful, are there still a few such people throughout the ages?
"It's just a ghost! Such an obvious homicide case, after his rhetoric, turned into a murder of a corpse, I think he is just a Taoist priest who cheats money, and even if there is a problem again, it is estimated that he can use all kinds of strange reasons to excuse it. ”
Officer Yang suddenly smiled mysteriously: "Then what if he finishes the Fa and everything is really calm?" ”
"Then what else to say, just arrest it! If he's really fine after doing the rituals, then he's the biggest suspect! First of all, this Liu Zhenren has a motive to kill, that is, to collect money with the help of the gimmick of defrauding the corpse! Now that he appeared by such a coincidence, and just now he deliberately led the source of everything to that empty bag, so I think, at present, this person is very suspicious! ”
"Hahaha, it's exactly what I thought! Judging from my years of experience in handling cases, I have a great grasp that this Liu Zhenren is the murderer! As I told you just now, we will wait and see what happens, find the key evidence, and then capture him! ”
I don't know why Officer Yang is so confident, but I don't think it's that simple.
In my opinion, there are three suspects in this case, the first is Zhao Tiezhu, but after two days of observation, I have excluded him, a filial son who dares to fight hard in order to protect his father's corpse is unlikely to use his father's corpse as a cover for murder.
The second person is Liu Zhenren, the reason I have already said before, and from this point of view, he is the most suspicious of the three suspects.
As for the third person, I don't know why I suspect him, he is the village chief who has been taking care of us!
I always feel that this person seems to have a problem, and when answering some things about Lao Zhao's past, he is vague, as if he is deliberately hiding something, and he firmly believes in Zhao Tiezhu's father and his father's murder from beginning to end, which really makes me a little puzzled.
I told Officer Yang and Lin Yingxue my opinion, and both of them agreed with me, although everything seems to be messy at the moment, but behind the mess, there may be important evidence that we have overlooked.
I don't know where to start, when Lin Yingxue faced me, her face was no longer as cold as before, although she was still expressionless, but I could see from her eyes that her opinion of me had gradually changed.
"I think we should first ask what the situation was here last night, and what is the details of that Liu Zhenren, maybe she can tell us something."
As I spoke, I stretched out my finger and pointed to the middle-aged woman with her hair who was still sitting on the ground sobbing, needless to say, this person must be the wife of the deceased Li Jianmin, and it is estimated that she was the one who found Li Jianmin's body this morning.
We stepped forward, the middle-aged woman didn't intend to pay attention to us at all, still lowered her head and cried, Officer Yang and I didn't know how to ask, and Lin Yingxue squatted down and said face to face with the middle-aged woman: "Sister, we are policemen, can you tell me, what happened last night?" ”
Maybe it was because of Lin Yingxue's 'sister', the crying middle-aged woman finally raised her head, saw Lin Yingxue with a smile on her face in front of her, shook her head vigorously, covered her head with her hands and said: "I don't know anything, I haven't seen anything, when I got up this morning, Jianmin he has been... I really don't know anything, don't arrest me. ”
Seeing her reaction like this, Officer Yang and I glanced at each other, and it was tacit, because we all saw that the middle-aged woman in front of us definitely knew something we didn't know, but I don't know why she refused to say it.
