Chapter 461: Innocent Insider
Team Leader Yang took a deep breath and said calmly, "Actually, you have to think like this, every crime happens without us knowing it and without any surprise, I am the same as you are an exorcist, we don't know when the evil forces will do it, don't blame yourself so much." ”
My brow furrowed slightly, and his words seemed to poke at the stiff mass inside me.
"And you have to think like this, this world can never be peaceful, where there is justice, there will be evil against it, we have been working hard, and there will be people like us who will work hard to fight evil, just maintain such a balance."
"Yes, thank you Team Leader Yang for your enlightenment."
"No, no, I can't talk about any enlightenment, I just say my own opinion, in the first few years of the police, I was also so confused and confused, and then I figured out this truth and was relieved, we can only work hard to curb the occurrence of large-scale crimes, but we can't completely eliminate crime, just have a clear conscience."
I smiled and reached out and patted him on the shoulder, giving him a reassuring smile in return, what he said was very reasonable, but I didn't dare to convince myself with such a reason, after all, my task was to eradicate the entire demon organization, otherwise their efforts would be in vain.
Once the demon's plan is successfully implemented, the human world will be devastated, which is completely different from ordinary people's crimes.
We took Gong Kai's body to the morgue of the police station, and then drove to pick up his wife.
In fact, it is cruel to let a person who has just woken up face all this, but I don't want to delay, it's still the same sentence, a long pain is better than a short pain, and the longer it drags on, the deeper it hurts her.
Gong Kai's wife kept hugging her shoulders, her body trembled slightly, and her tears kept dripping, but she didn't make any sound.
To alleviate grief, everyone has a process, some are very long, some are very short.
"Eldest sister, I'm sorry, I couldn't save her life, please mourn and change!" I said apologetically.
Team Leader Yang stepped forward and explained, "He has done his best, but our opponent is a demon, not an ordinary criminal, so I hope you will be more tolerant." ”
Gong Kai's wife didn't speak, closed her eyes and nodded silently, she is a very forgiving and well-educated woman.
"Now I want to cremate Gong Kai's body immediately, otherwise there will be some extraneous accidents, which means that those evil things will use his corpse to do things soon."
Gong Kai's wife opened her eyes and looked at me in surprise, her face was full of puzzlement, I explained to her seriously, the horror and fear on her face alternated, but she finally nodded and acquiesced.
I didn't slack off, I directly carried Gong Kai's body to the open space outside with Team Leader Yang, and I asked him to accompany Gong Kai's wife inside, and I must not let her come out to see the process of Gong Kai's cremation, which had a very bad impact on her.
I stood in front of Gong Kai's corpse with the talisman paper, and I had mixed feelings in my heart, I had forgotten that this was the first corpse I had cremated, whether it was the corpse of a demon or the corpse of an innocent human, in short, this was the result of a sin.
I took a deep breath to sort out my emotions, drew a rune on the rune paper, recited a spell, and threw the rune paper on the corpse, which was consumed by flames in an instant.
A few minutes later, the fire went away, leaving a pale layer of ashes on the ground.
I turned around and walked into the office and said to Gong Kai's wife, "Sister, I have cremated Gong Kai's body and left some ashes, you can take it back for a thought." ”
"Is there any ashes I can take back?" Gong Kai's wife asked in a choked voice.
I nodded, "But his ashes are much less than normal people's, because his soul is scattered." ”
"Why?" Gong Kai's wife looked at me puzzled, and Team Leader Yang next to me was also a little surprised, and I hadn't explained the truth to him before.
So I talked to them about the science again, the human soul occupies 2/3 of the weight of the body, and once the soul is dispersed, the weight of the human skeleton will disappear.
"It's a process that's hard to describe, and you have to think outside of science."
Team Leader Yang nodded, "So that's the case, I didn't expect the human soul to be so heavy, no wonder many people say that people who lose their souls are no different from the walking dead, it seems that this is not only to say that the state of people has changed, but in fact, the quality of people has also changed." ”
I nodded, "That's a reasonable understanding." ”
Gong Kai's wife wiped her tears and smiled bitterly, "No matter how heavy his ashes are, at least he still leaves the ashes, so as not to leave nothing, I don't know where to go to pay tribute to him on the Qingming Festival." ”
These words made my heart very sour, and we accompanied Gong Kai's wife to pack up the ashes, and then sent her back home.
She said that tomorrow she would call her family to discuss Gong Kai's funeral, choose a cemetery as soon as possible to bury his ashes, and let him be buried in the ground.
I also promised her that I would definitely catch Gong Kai's murderer, and I would destroy them no matter how many demons there were.
Although this is an unfinished regret, at least for the time being, I have not caught the demon, and I owe some debt to Gong Kai's wife, but she still said thank you to me gratefully.
Because she was worried that she was alone at home, it was this time, and her body was still very weak, and she refused to stay in the hospital to continue the drip, so Team Leader Yang arranged for a female policeman to come and accompany her for two days.
At this time, it was almost 11 o'clock in the evening, and Team Leader Yang wanted to go back to the police station to write a report on the closure of the case, he said to send me back to rest first, but I refused, saying that I would go to the police station with him to have a good chat about the case, and it was not convenient to talk at home, I was afraid that his mother would hear it, which would make the old man worried.
We were all silent with each other all the way, thinking about our own business.
When I was about to arrive at the police station, I suddenly turned my face to look at Team Leader Yang and startled him, "What's wrong?" ”
"I'm going to cut off the investigation and go back tomorrow."
"Why?" He asked, surprised.
"We are preparing to investigate Gong Kai and find out what happened to Zhang Manlin 10 years ago, but he was killed, I think those demons have been watching our every move in the dark, we are going to investigate other related personnel, it is likely that he will become the next innocent."
Team Leader Yang frowned, "No, they don't know who we're going to investigate." ”
"Yes, this question should say that we don't know who we're going to investigate next, but they know who they knew about 10 years ago, and when we're still looking for someone to know, they're already doing it, and they're often one step ahead of us."
Team Leader Yang's brows furrowed even deeper, and he looked straight ahead, his face becoming more solemn.
"I'll go back tomorrow to divert the goal and direction of the investigation, temporarily interrupting the other party's plan, I don't want innocent people to suffer anymore, after all, there is nothing I can do to prevent the next murder from happening."
"Okay, then I'll take you to the car tomorrow."
"Thank you."
Not long after I sat down in the office, my phone rang, and it was Manman calling.
I immediately put down the, sat up straight, and said with some suspicion, "It was Zhang Manlin who called, wouldn't she be aware of anything, or in danger?" ”
Team Leader Yang was also nervous, "You quickly pick it up and ask her, stabilize her first, and I will immediately get in touch with the police station over there to rescue her." ”
Without answering the phone, I had no way of predicting what was happening on the other end of the line.
I struggled to swipe the answer button, "Miss Manman, haven't you rested so late?" ”
"You, where are you?" The other party's voice was a little slurred and slurred, probably because he had drunk a lot of alcohol.
"What's wrong with you? Drunk? ”
"Don't care what's wrong with me, you come to my house to find me, I'm alone tonight, I want you to talk to me, you come over quickly."
Listening to her voice, I carefully discerned that this was indeed a big tongue condition caused by drinking too much alcohol, and not other reasons.
My heart relaxed a little, "Don't mess around, you stay at home." ”
"Where the hell are you? If you don't come to me, I'll come to you now. ”
"I'm out of town now, you can't go anywhere if you drink too much, it's going to be dangerous."
"Hehe, what you said is so serious, I'm really just talking to you, I won't do anything to you, do you really think I'm the kind of hungry woman? I'm not, hahaha......" She let out a profligate laugh, but with a sadness.
"Why don't you find a friend to accompany you, I'm busy with my affairs in the field, I'll hang up first, there are friends here."
"You're so heartless, hehe." Man Man smiled coldly and hung up the phone.
"How is she, it's not good to hear about her." Team Leader Yang asked with some concern, "Do you want me to call the police station over there to arrange a police officer to investigate it?" ”
I waved my hand, "No need, send the police, you can't enter her house if you look at the past, if there is an accident, then no one can stop it, I guess she just drank too much wine and went crazy with the strength of the wine, to tell you, she has been very ambiguous with me in private, a little ridiculous." ”
I smiled embarrassedly, but Team Leader Yang's expression was very indifferent, "That's okay, it's okay." ”
WeChat sounded, I picked it up and looked at it, a WeChat message sent by Manman, the content made my scalp tingle.
"You're not going to my hometown, are you?"
I quickly gathered my thoughts, no, no one should be manipulating her, telling her where I am now, even if I know I will have to deal with her.
I deliberately waited a few minutes before replying, "You're thinking too much." ”
She didn't reply to me after that.
This strange woman, what exactly is she trying to express?
I was still a little worried, so I called Zhao Heizi and asked him to go over to Manman's house to keep an eye on it.
