I was in a hurry, and I wanted to shout at his back, but I woke up with a hard effort.

I was dreaming again.

I rubbed my temples and sat up, turned on the lamp, and looked at my phone, now it's 4:11 a.m.

Thinking back to the dream just now, it was so real, as if the strange man who sold fish was really close at hand, and even the feeling that I was desperate to catch up with him was so real, what kind of foreshadowing did this dream have?

I sat up and calmed down, poured a glass of water and drank it, and soon fell asleep again.

I don't know how long it took, a mobile phone ringtone woke me up, I grabbed it and saw that it was Zhao Heizi calling, at this time I found that the room was already bright, I seemed to have overslept.

"Mr. Zhang, something happened."

As soon as I heard the other party's deep voice, my heart suddenly rose to my throat, "What's wrong?" ”

"Mike, he died in a car accident."

My scalp tingled, "When?" ”

"Just a colleague from their studio called me, about an hour or two ago, it's incredible." Zhao Heizi sighed.

I rubbed my sore temples and shook my head vigorously, "I'll clean up and go to the police station right away." ”

"Bizarrely, the design was missing, and the studio colleague said that he had not found it in Mike's backpack, and the studio was not there, so he asked his family and said that he had not seen the design either."

"This ......," I frowned, "let's talk about it later!" ”

Putting down my phone, I took a deep breath and looked at the ceiling, completely unable to believe the fact that we were still talking about design in the store last night, and then we made an appointment to have dinner another day, and now suddenly there are no people.

I quickly cleaned up the chaos, got up, washed up, went out and went straight to the police station.

Zhu Chen happened to be in charge of this case, and as soon as I arrived, he told me about the case.

At about 9:30 in the morning, Mike came out of his house and stood at the intersection to take a taxi to the studio, when a pickup truck rushed from the front and knocked him out, killing him on the spot, and his body was separated, which was very tragic.

The truck also hit a fence on the other side, and the truck exploded, killing people in the crash.

These are all seen from the surveillance video, and as for whether the truck driver is drunk, or for other reasons, an autopsy will be performed, and it will take a while, after all, the body is charred, and it is troublesome to do all kinds of tests.

"It was a bizarre car accident, if the truck driver was ruled out." I pinched my chin and fell into deep thought.

Zhu Chen lit a cigarette and handed it to me, "Do you think it will have anything to do with the demon?" ”

I turned my face to look at him and couldn't help but smile, "Captain Zhu, you are transitioning to the position of a theist, pay attention, you are a people's policeman." ”

"You kid makes fun of me, too." Zhu Chen smiled, "I can only talk about such speculation in front of you, please be serious." ”

I coughed and put away my smile, "I know, just kidding you, of course I thought it would have something to do with the demon organization from the beginning, otherwise it would be too coincidental to connect these together." ”

"Coincidence?" Zhu Chen frowned and asked.

He didn't know that I was planning to open a bar, so I told him all about it.

"I'm about to open, but my designer suddenly died, and the design was mysteriously missing, which means that the opening of the bar is going to be delayed, and according to us, it's not good to have to change the good day, which is obviously the purpose of the other party."

Zhu Chen took out the cigarette and sandwiched it between his fingers, frowned and asked, "Then what now?" ”

"I just roughly calculated, the re-selection date can only be two months later, and there may be other changes in between, but don't care about these for now, I want to figure out this case first, so, please help me."

Zhu Chen nodded without hesitation, "Of course, it's not me who helps you, it's you who helps me investigate the case." ”

I tugged at the corners of my mouth, "When can I see the body?" ”

"Wait, there are still a lot of processes and formalities to go through, we are police officers, so ...... Thank you for your understanding. ”

"Don't say that, it's all about your work." I said embarrassedly.

Zhu Chen asked his colleague that it would not be until about 3 p.m. before I could see the bodies of Mike and the truck driver.

So I went back to the hotel first and discussed the next arrangements with Zhao Heizi.

"It seems that we have been targeted by the demon organization, and they have disrupted our arrangements in advance." Zhao Heizi slammed his fist on the edge of the table, and his forehead was bruised with anger.

I took a deep breath, "It's okay, let's negotiate with the studio first, let them redo the design, and then renovate the bar first, as for the day, the old saying is that it is better to choose a day than to hit the day, let it be, when to decorate it, and when to pick a day that is not busy to open." ”

"This ...... Will there be trouble? Zhao Heizi asked worriedly.

I smiled, "If you want to choose a good day and an auspicious day, it will be two months later, so why have you been paying Qian Siming's rent for nothing for so long?" Since the other party has ruined the day we arranged and made a bad start, it doesn't matter, let's see the move! ”

Zhao Heizi thought about it and reluctantly agreed, he was very frustrated, because the plan was disrupted, and even some unknown dangers were added by the other party.

I don't want to show it in front of him and make him even more frustrated.

The design drawings were made by Mike himself, and he only roughly communicated with the team, and the specific design details were not displayed step by step until the day of construction, and the team was instructed to do it.

This is also an unwritten rule in their industry, after all, many people now have a lot of thoughts, and after getting the design idea, it is likely to sell it to other teams at any time, or take the design drawings and disappear, and finally the original creator will be involved in copyright disputes and other troubles.

So, now the team is also a mess, only knowing the general framework of the design, and now it takes time to ask the designer to do it again and use this framework to make content.

In the afternoon, Zhu Chen called me and said that he could go to see the body of the truck driver first, and then he could see Mike's body later.

I rushed to the dispatch, put on a mask and gloves, and followed Zhu Chen into the morgue.

The body of the truck driver was charred black, and it was the first time I saw such a disgusting and horrible corpse, and I felt very uncomfortable for a few minutes, and my stomach was churning, and I tried to restrain the bad feeling and listen to the forensic doctor explain the autopsy results.

The truck driver was not poisonous, he had no alcohol in his body, at least he was completely conscious while driving, and the truck driver's family was asked that he had no history of mental illness.

The medical examiner also extracted the results of his physical examination for the last six months from the hospital, which showed that he was a completely healthy male.

The truck was also burned, and after inspection by technicians, the parts of the truck were not damaged or malfunctioning, and it was unlikely that there would be a sudden spike in speed that was beyond the driver's control.

When this result comes out, it is very obvious, and it is another unsolved case for them.

I glanced at Zhu Chen, and he immediately understood, and said to the forensic doctor, "Forensic Doctor Zhou, you go and get busy first, and I'll talk to him about the case." ”

The medical examiner left, and the two of us were left in the morgue, so I could do my thing.

I sat cross-legged, folded my hands on my eyebrows, and chanted a mantra, holding my breath to summon the trucker's spirit.

After three minutes, I opened my eyes in disappointment and shook my head, "His soul has been controlled by the other party, and I can't track it down." ”

Zhu Chen pursed his lips, put his hands in his pockets and walked around the corpse, "So ruthless, just to prevent the opening of your bar, he created two murders, and also controlled his soul?" ”

I stood up and looked down at the charred corpse, "Yes, I'm going to open a bar in the business district to further investigate the hidden situation in the business district, those demons have expected it, so they are going to move." ”

"If you can't track his soul, is there no other way?"

"Let's take a look at the van, maybe you'll find something."

Zhu Chen nodded and led me out of the morgue.

The truck had been brought back before, and at the moment it was parked in the open space behind the police station, and the charred black cut exuded a foul smell, and I couldn't help but frown and cover my mouth and nose.

I approached the truck, took in the lingering scent, and soon noticed something unusual.

"There is a situation!" I whispered a word and walked to the front of the car.

There was a very strong aura wafting here, and I felt it seriously, there was no doubt that it was left by the demons!

I quickly took out a piece of rune paper, drew a rune on it and pasted it on the front of the car, instantly igniting a pale blue flame, and after a few seconds, the rune paper turned to ashes.

I shook my head in disappointment, "I still haven't been able to track them." ”

Zhu Chen was stunned by the series of actions I had just made, as if he was watching a magic show.

I turned to him and explained, "They did move on this car, controlling the driver to lose control and hit Mike, and then hit the wall and burn and explode, trying to destroy the corpse, but there was still a little bit of breath left, and I tried to use it to chase them down, but failed, they were cunning." ”

Zhu Chen didn't speak, just nodded silently.

"But I need to incinerate this car now, because they still have a residual breath on it, and I don't know when they will use this car again, and they must be disposed of immediately to prevent future troubles."

Zhu Chen was shocked, "Then what do you need me to prepare, gasoline?" ”

I almost burst out laughing, Captain Zhu is really cute sometimes, maybe because he is a layman, so his understanding is a little biased.

"Of course not, that's a chemical treatment, I'm a mage." I smiled and pulled out a piece of red rune paper from my pocket, "Just use it, and recite a spell with me." ”

"This?" Zhu Chen looked at the rune paper that was less than the size of a palm in disbelief, maybe he was thinking that it was not worth a third of the barrel of gasoline at all.
