Chapter 20: The Second Body

"Okay, we got it." Yan Junli nodded, "Thank you for the information you provided this time. ”

"Happy working together, black cat." The skeleton curled the corners of his lips and said, "Oh, by the way, for the sake of our friendship, I'll give you a piece of advice." Don't be fooled by what is in front of you, sometimes there is more than one truth. ”

Yan Junli frowned, but still replied politely, "Okay, I'll pay attention." ”

Yan Junli had already stepped out of the room with his front feet, and Yang Wenbin hadn't followed yet. He turned his head to look at the skeleton and said lightly,

"I'm really surprised to sell my wife so easily."

"The black cat rescued four of my brothers, brothers like siblings, and women like clothes." The skeleton chuckled, "Don't you understand that?" ”

Yang Wenbin shook his head, followed Yan Junli's footsteps, and walked out of this smoky place.

"How's your shoulder?" As soon as he walked out of the club's door, Yang Wenbin asked.

"Ah, it's okay, it's no more bloodshed." Yan Junli also deliberately moved his shoulders, but this movement made him grin painfully.

"You do it hard." Yang Wenbin said with a cold eye, "Next time, you can find a tree and hurt yourself." ”

"Okay, getting information is the most important thing, my little injury is nothing." Yan Junli said comfortingly, "Maybe I can reimburse a medical bill or something when I go back to the bureau." ”

Yang Wenbin rolled his eyes in his heart, and opened the car door in front of Yan Junli.

"Rest on your shoulder, I'll drive."

Yan Junli raised his eyebrows, "Huh? I didn't even know you could drive? ”

"You're discriminating against people with disabilities." Yang Wenbin teased as he started the car. Yan Junli hurriedly opened the car door and sat in the co-pilot's seat.

"The story of the skeleton is different from the story of Xia Baiyan." Yang Wenbin said.

"I noticed." Yan Junli thought about it while fastening his seat belt and said, "One said that Huazi was killed by Xie Mingqing, and the other said that she was killed by her husband Du Yong. ”

"But have you noticed anything?" Yang Wenbin analyzed, "Either way, it is unlikely that the murderer will continue to commit murder 20 years later." Xie Mingqing is already dead, Du Yong would be fifty or sixty years old if he lived by now, and Xie Fengming had no power to fight back against the murderer, so it was unlikely that he would look at it. ”

"It seems that we have to consider the possibility of the relevant people imitating the crime." Yan Junli said.

Yang Wenbin shook his head, "Have you ever considered a possibility?" ”

"What?"

"All these stories, none of them are true." Yang Wenbin whispered.

Yan Junli frowned, "What? ”

"Because all these stories and legends, there are loopholes." Yang Wenbin analyzed, "First of all, the legend of the Kaede Ghost twenty years ago, that legend is too similar to the story of the Japanese woman Momiji that Keiko told us. Legends are legends because of their particularity, and legends that are so similar to other legends must not be legends, but have been deliberately spread by someone for some purpose. The history of such legends is often much shorter than we think, and it looks like it was a legend from 20 years ago, and maybe it was only spread five or even three years ago. Let's talk about Xia Baiyan, he said that when Xie Mingqing died, Xie Fengming happened to see the murderer's face clearly at the scene, not to mention what Xie Fengming could really remember when he was so young, if Xie Fengming really saw the murderer clearly, would he live so peacefully until now? And twenty years have passed, how could the murderer wait until twenty years later to kill her? This motivation is simply too far-fetched. The skull's statement says that Hanako was killed by her husband, but even in families with severe domestic violence, it is rare for a husband to kill his wife. Psychologically speaking, the psychology of beating people and killing people is completely different needs, beating a wife is just to vent anger, killing is different, not to mention such a cruel means as pouring sulfuric acid after killing. ”

After listening to Yang Wenbin's analysis, Yan Junli suddenly realized, but because of this result, he couldn't help but become depressed.

"If you follow what you said, wouldn't it mean that all the clues we have found so far have been in vain?"

"Not necessarily. If everything exists, there must be a reason. Yang Wenbin said, "Have you noticed that if there is one more person in these stories, they will all make sense." Suppose there is a third person in this story, who creates all this in secret, hides his identity perfectly, and finally spreads legends to confuse people's eyes, then the story can make sense. ”

The car was running on the black asphalt road at night, intentionally or unintentionally, the nerves of the two people were a little nervous, and Yang Wenbin also subconsciously drove the car fast. A crooked sign appeared in front of them, telling them that the aquarium was not far away. It didn't take long for a square building to appear in front of me, and the white walls reflected the faint light of the moon in the dark night, making it look a little eerie.

"The lights are on." Yan Junli whispered, opened the car door and walked out, holding the pistol firmly in his hand, and walked up the steps in front of the aquarium.

"Keiko Nakano! Are you in there? Yan Junli cautiously pushed the door of the aquarium, but he didn't expect the door to open as soon as he pushed it.

"Is there anyone here?" Yan Junli loaded the gun, holding it firmly with both hands, and shouted loudly, "I'm Yan Junli, the captain of the criminal investigation team, Miss Keiko, are you in there?" ”

However, after a long time, there was still no sound, Yan Junli and Yang Wenbin glanced at each other and decided to go deeper directly.

Soon after passing through the dimly lit corridor, you can see the ticket office, which is deserted and a little deserted. Yan Junli and Yang Wenbin stepped over the iron chain blocking tourists and came to the inside of the aquarium. Huge fish tanks surround the entire corridor, and all kinds of fish and sea creatures float quietly in the water in the dark.

After walking a few steps, Yan Junli suddenly felt that something was wrong under his feet, and after walking a few more steps, he found that he didn't know when, there was actually a large pool of water on the ground.

Yang Wenbin frowned and said succinctly, "Hurry up." ”

The two of them no longer controlled their speed and sound, and trotted all the way through the hallway, the soles of their shoes making a splash and making a lot of noise in the empty hallway. They were getting closer and closer to the light source in front of them.

Suddenly, Yan Junli, who was walking in front, stopped abruptly, followed by Yang Wenbin, and also stopped suddenly, both of them were stunned by the scene in front of them.

The huge glass fish tank had been torn open by something, and water was bubbling outward, and several smaller fish were also washed out, bouncing on the ground in vain. On the side of the rift, a female corpse collapsed, wearing a floral kimono, black clogs, and a golden hairpin in her coiled hair. It's just that her face has been corroded beyond recognition by sulfuric acid, and there is not much skin left, revealing hideous white bones and bloody muscles.
