Chapter 048: Land of the Dead
The police quickly rushed over and asked Han Wei, Lao Zheng and the property management personnel to make a record, and also retrieved the surveillance video in the villa area, but the surveillance in the first few hours collectively lost its effect and did not leave any images. In view of Han Wei and Lao Zheng, who have been involved in various cases many times recently, the police decided to set up a special team to completely and fully crack the case. The police did this, firstly, because Lao Zheng was known as an archaeological expert and was also a celebrity in the industry; Second, the police were also angered, and there were repeated cases, none of which were detected, and they felt shameless.
By the time the police left, it was already dawn, Lao Zheng was in an extremely bad mood, his master and junior brother were his only relatives, and now even the relics had been stolen, and any comfort was useless. At this time, Li Hua and Liu Shi had already returned, and the two of them looked very tired, and they should have not slept all night.
When Han Wei saw Li Hua and Liu Shi, a thought immediately flashed in his heart, both of them knew about Bai Yujie, and they also knew that the two of them knew about going to the archaeological research institute to find information, could all this be done by them? Thinking of this, Han Wei pinched himself hard to dispel this thought, if even the people around him doubted it, then who else could believe it. After going through so much together, Han Wei chose to trust the two, believing that the relationship cultivated between life and death would not be easily corroded.
"Old Zheng, what's wrong? What happened. As soon as Li Hua entered the room, he saw Lao Zheng's gloomy face and hurriedly asked.
"The house was stolen, and there was nothing less than valuable antiques, that is, the relics of Master Zheng and his junior brother were stolen." Han Wei was afraid that Lao Zheng would be in a worse mood, so he hurriedly rushed to the front to answer, seeing Li Hua and Liu Shi's puzzled looks, he also guessed what the two were thinking, and said: "Lao Zheng and I found some clues in the archives of the research institute, it just so happened that there was a record in the notes of Master Zheng before his death, but he just came back, and someone rushed to the front to steal things." ”
Li Hua and Liu Shi looked at each other, their expressions were full of surprise, saying that this was a coincidence, and it was too incredible.
"Brother Hua, what have you discovered?" Han Wei wanted to change the topic, and now mentioning the theft would only make Lao Zheng more uncomfortable.
Hearing Han Wei ask, Li Hua's expression immediately became much more serious, and said: "The person who stole your white jade ring in the hospital last time has a clue, although the hospital surveillance is not very clear, but someone has been found to confirm that the match is more than ninety percent." ”
Han Wei's heart moved, he already suspected that the person who stole the white jade ring last time was the same person as the thief this time, and when he heard that there was a clue, his tired body had a little more energy. Without waiting for Han Wei to speak, Li Hua said again: "That kid is active at the junction of Langfang and Beijing, and the specific location has not been completely determined, I'm afraid it will take a few days before there is news." That kid is not a habitual thief, and the people on the road are not familiar with it, so it is a little difficult. ”
"We'll go now, we can't wait any longer."
Lao Zheng spoke, he was eager to find the lost relics, if he really didn't live to be fifty-two years old, the days left for him were already very short, he had to find them before he died, and he would be buried in a coffin together in the future, so that he could never be separated from his master and brother. Lao Zheng's words were categorical, and everyone couldn't object, and in desperation, everyone couldn't take a break, so Li Hua drove to Langfang. Before leaving, Li Hua made a phone call and asked someone to try to narrow the scope of the other party's activities.
Langfang City belongs to Hebei Province, but it is very close to Beijing, even if it is to the center of Langfang, it only takes about an hour and a half, and now it is only to the junction, and it can be reached in an hour. In the car, everyone didn't sleep all night, but they didn't feel sleepy, they always felt pressed by something, some depression, not released, very uncomfortable, and no mind to rest.
Successfully came to the outskirts of Langfang City, Li Hua received a call and headed west, the thief he was looking for often appeared nearby, and the specific location could not be determined. When Han Wei and the others came to this area, it was a factory area, and there were no people nearby, and it was a depressed scene. Although it belongs to Langfang City, it is very close to Beijing, and it is also an inch of land, and now it is actually deserted, which can not help but make people feel strange. I felt strange in my heart, Han Wei and the others didn't care, now they came out to find someone, and there was not even a place to eat and live next to it, so the person who had to find it was not here. Finally, I saw someone passing by in the distance, a middle-aged man walked quickly, and several people hurriedly stepped forward.
"Big brother, where is there a place to eat and live around here?" Li Hua asked and handed over a cigarette.
The middle-aged man glanced at Li Hua, probably a little cold, took the cigarette and hurriedly lit it. After taking a few bites, he spoke: "There is no place to eat and live here for more than ten miles, there used to be, but then it became a wasteland, it is rare for people to pass by, and naturally there is no place to eat and live." ”
"I think the transportation is quite convenient, why is there no one." Li Hua just asked casually, and when the conversation was familiar, the other party's vigilance dropped, and he could inquire about some things.
When the middle-aged man heard this, his expression changed greatly, and he glanced at the location of the abandoned factory in fear, and said: "This place is haunted, I heard that many people have died, and the sound of women and children crying is often heard. There have also been real estate developers who don't believe in these and want to buy here, but many unfinished buildings have to be solved, the original landowners owe a lot of money, and they need to pay a lot of money to buy it. I advise you to leave as soon as you are fine, and do not encounter anything unclean. ”
When Han Wei heard that it was haunted, he instinctively had a trace of vigilance, and glanced at the middle-aged man in front of him a few more times, but there was nothing wrong with this person, Han Wei shook his head, not letting himself think too much.
"Haunted? Big brother, talk about it carefully. Liu Shi usually didn't speak, but when he heard the haunting, he suddenly became interested, and seemed very interested in the ghost theory, and his face did not hide his excitement.
The middle-aged man looked very scared, kept waving his hand, and finally spoke under Liu Shi's repeated requests. It turned out that this land was bought four years ago to build office buildings and factories, but only a few of them were repaired before people died. Dead people on construction sites are a common thing, and there is no need to make a fuss, but the bizarre deaths one after another have to make people guess wildly. The reason why it is bizarre is because everyone's way of dying is different, some are hanged, but no ropes can be found nearby; Some fell to their deaths, but on the open and flat ground; There are those who died by being pierced through the heart by steel bars, and there are only the fingerprints of the deceased themselves on the steel bars. Not only that, but everyone died in the early hours of the morning, without even any shouting, and according to the results of the police investigation, the time of death was exactly ten minutes before and after.
I don't know how many times the police came to check, but they didn't find clues, or there were clues, but they all pointed to the ghosts, and the people in the factory were panicked, and most people believed that the ghosts and gods were doing the trick, but the police naturally couldn't draw this conclusion. The boss who bought the land spent a lot of money to invite the Taoist priest to do the practice, but when the Taoist priest was holding a peachwood sword and pointing to the open space, he suddenly bled to death through seven holes, and the body did not fall down after death, so he stood in place, motionless, as if he was immobilized.
Repeated homicides, the police simply sent people to live at the scene, but there were still people who died one after another, this time it was different from before, the way of death was strange, broken hands, broken feet, broken heads, every time a person died, there will be one less part of the body, and it will never be repeated. The only thing that is the same is that he has an extremely frightened look on his death, and no one knows how he died except for the missing parts of his body.
The deaths continued, many workers left one after another, and the boss who bought the land simply gave up the land after paying an unknown amount of money, and soon most of the people in the area were gone. It didn't end there, and since then, the sound of women and children crying has been heard from time to time in the factory, the sound is ethereal and difficult to capture, as if it is everywhere, and the terrible cry makes people listen to nightmares every night, many people dream of women and children, either without heads or arms, in short, exactly like the strange deaths in the factory. The police are powerless to deal with these, and the case has not been solved, and the matter has reached this point, in the face of the place of death, who dares to live nearby, have moved away, and the factory has been completely abandoned.
……
The middle-aged man's body was still trembling after speaking, it was obvious that he was very scared, so he hurriedly said goodbye to Han Wei and the others, and left in a hurry. According to the middle-aged man, it is indeed very strange, and it is not an exaggeration to call it a place of death. Han Wei, Lao Zheng, and Li Hua were also curious in their hearts, but they didn't mean to dig deeper, they just wanted to find the thief quickly and get back the lost things.
Liu Shi looked at the figure of the middle-aged man, his expression was a little strange, and he suddenly said, "Let's get in the car first." ”
Han Wei looked at Liu Shi's expression and felt that he had something to say, so he didn't ask much, immediately got in the car and returned the same way. As soon as the car started, Liu Shi said: "The middle-aged man just now has a problem, this abandoned factory is by no means simple." ”
At this time, Han Wei, Lao Zheng, and Li Hua were all puzzled, and they didn't know why Liu Shi said this, so they didn't let the three of them wait, Liu Shi said again: "The middle-aged man looks scared when he speaks, but his pupils show no sign of shrinking at all, which means that he is not afraid at all in his heart, why would he lie?" It's the first time we've met, so what are his intentions? And in the direction of the factory, there are car marks, and not one or two, indicating that there are often vehicles entering the factory, and it is by no means as the middle-aged man said, there is no one here. Looking at the appearance of the middle-aged man, he wanted to scare us away and not go near the factory. ”
At first, Liu Shi found some problems, and deliberately pretended to be interested in ghosts, just to see who the middle-aged man was and what he wanted to do. Han Wei and the three of them didn't notice these details, and then they remembered that Liu Shi was born as a scout, these are professional skills for him, and the three of Han Wei were very convinced of Liu Shi's judgment. It's just that according to Liu Shi's judgment, many questions arise, who is the middle-aged man? What secrets are hidden inside the factory? The thief you are looking for is nearby, what is the connection with the factory? Could it be that it's just thinking too much, and that the two are not connected at all?
After discussion, Han Wei and the four of them decided to leave temporarily, wait a little later, and go to the factory to check with the help of night, for the so-called ghosts, the four people who have experienced many strange things, are not very afraid. Whether the factory has anything to do with the thief you are looking for, you will know if you go in and see it.
