Chapter 4: Strange Forces?
"Miss Luo, who lives in room 2418? It's already back. ”
"Coming back?"
"Yes, I came back 1 hour ago, but the state is a little strange, she entered the hotel with her feet, holding high heels, there seems to be some blood on her clothes, when we asked her, she said that she accidentally fell outside, no major problem, and then went back to the room."
"Okay, I see, thanks!"
After Lu Qi hung up the phone, he looked at the text message sent by Luo Muyi, "I'm at the hotel, I'm ready to go to bed later!" My house was probably patronized by 'thieves' yesterday, so don't go there, but I don't think I can stop you, so be careful if you want to go. Good night~" This message ...... The tone is quite like me, it's not that I didn't think that this might be a trap, and I thought about making a phone call, but ...... If the phone has been controlled, it is useless to make calls, but fortunately, the hotel has confirmed that there is no major problem. It's just that Luo Muyi went to the small shed in the afternoon, and then found an abnormality, and came back barefoot and bloody, what happened in the small shed, or on the way back to the hotel? Although it was already ten o'clock in the evening, Lu Qi still decided to go to the small shed first to see what was going on. Then again, this guy calls such a shabby little shed home?
Just in case, Lu Qi went to the study to find out the gun that his mother used back then, this gun was only seen twelve years ago, a year ago, Lu Qi's father knew about the case he investigated, and sent some of the things his mother used back then, and sent this gun and that notebook together. After preparing everything, Lu Qi went out with a windbreaker.
There was no light in the alley, and with the help of a flashlight, I could probably see that there had been a fight here, broken mattresses, blood stains on the ground, and a small pile of ash that had not had time to be blown away by the wind, and the shed was also a mess, which had been turned over destructively, as if it was looking for something, but it should not have been found, and then vented angrily.
"Looks like someone should be a landslide victory, and I don't need to worry about it at all." Lu Qi stepped on the pile of ash with his foot, and then prepared to drive to the hotel.
At this time, the mobile phone rang, it was Meng Ting's.
"Chen Tianming died, in the hospital, died a miserable death."
Lu Qi's current identity is not suitable for going to the first scene, so he waited for Meng Ting directly in the café next to the hospital. About an hour later, Meng Ting came, his brows furrowed, as if he had seen something unbelievable, he lit a cigarette as soon as he sat down, and took a deep breath before relieving himself.
"At ten o'clock in the evening, when I found it during the ward rounds, the doctors and nurses were terrified, Chen Tianming died like a dried corpse...... The door is guarded, I don't know how the murderer got in, the window is unlikely, after all, it is the tenth floor. Meng Ting covered his face, and still couldn't believe that there would be that kind of death.
Lu Qi didn't speak, just poured him a glass of water, Meng Ting drank a few sips and continued: "The forensic doctor is still appraising, this kind of death, it may take time to get results, Chen Li and I were going to ask him about the wound tomorrow, and the hypnotist has contacted him......"
"Hypnotist?"
"Well, the method Luo Muyi said in the morning is quite like hypnosis, I just want to see if I can ask something with hypnosis."
"Now that this is the case, Xu Jiajia's side, don't investigate it yet."
"Huh? Do you suspect it's her? No, you've been suspicious of her. ”
"I'm afraid you're in danger! In addition, today Luo Muyi went to the small shed where she used to live, and it seems that she was attacked, but the person is fine, she should have won. ”
"Huh...... What was the ritual of using blood first, and now it is like turning people into dried corpses, and the blood is drained, and the strange power is chaotic? It's too much! But, you say, could it be the same person? Will Luo Muyi know something? ”
Blood...... Lu Qi seemed to have thought of something, put on his coat and walked to the door: "I'll go to the hotel." ”
"Are you looking for Luo Muyi? I'll go too! ”
The two stood at the door of room 2418 and knocked on the door for a long time, but they didn't see any movement inside, and called Luo Muyi's mobile phone to prompt it to turn off. Meng Ting took out his police ID card and asked the waiter to open the door, letting the waiter stay outside the door. The two of them entered the room but didn't see Luo Muyi, the wind poured in through the open floor-to-ceiling windows, Lu Qi and Meng Ting ran to the balcony to look down, there was nothing. Lu Qi carefully inspected the room again, neither in the cabinet nor in the bathroom, Luo Muyi was not seen, there were no obvious traces of a fight in the room, and there was no trace of anyone sleeping on the bed, Luo Muyi was missing.
"You can't run through the window, do you?! Hey, hey...... This is the 24th floor! ”
"I guess I really ran through the window." Lu Qi pointed to the shoe prints on the railing, "Maybe it's the strange power you said." ”
"But why did she run away and be hunted down?"
"Look at the shoe prints."
"So sure? Maybe it's a fear of crime and absconding? Maybe Chen Tianming will ......" Meng Ting turned his head and found Lu Qi looking at him with a smile. What's that, it's high, it's windy, it's a little cold...... "Didn't you just know her for a day?!" Just maintain her like that? ”
Lu Qi didn't speak, and suddenly the mobile phone prompted that a message was received from Luo Muyi, Lu Qi opened the phone but found that what he received was a blank.
"Blank text message? What is this little girl doing? Meng Ting also came over.
"It's not a blank, there's a word underneath."
[There is a safe in the closet, I'll give it to you, and then ask your police brother to stay away from Xu Jiajia. 】
Really.
Lu Qi called back directly, and a cold sentence came from the phone, "The user you dialed has been turned off." Is it a scheduled text message?
Opening the wardrobe, there was indeed a safe, and Meng Ting tacitly called the waiter. After the safe was opened, there were only clothes and shoes that Luo Muyi had bought before, and the pockets of the clothes seemed to be bulging. Lu Qi cautiously took things out of his pocket, it was a black velvet jewelry box with a ring inside, there was not much decoration on the ring, only two words were engraved: Mu Xue.
"I said how can you be sure that the shoe print is not hers, I bought her shoes for a long time! But what does a ring mean? Marriage proposal? It can't be that she proposed to you, it seems that your proposal was rejected, and you have known her for more than a day...... Are you going to abandon me? "At this time, I didn't forget to joke, it seems that I have eased up.
"I'll take this ring back and check it, and in the next two days, you will investigate Chen Tianming's case according to the bureau's arrangement, but Xu Jiajia don't check it, be careful." Lu Qi didn't want to involve Meng Ting, after all, ...... It's better not to remember the fear that you have forgotten so hard.
