Chapter 10: See the Clown Again
"Judging by everything so far, this is the most customary tactic of the clown. It's just playing with people's hearts. That's why they can always hide behind the scenes and easily complete batch after batch of crimes, because they can always find the right puppet. Poppy turned his head to look at the terrifying severed arm, "I don't know how they did it, but Tao Mingliang resolutely left us." The organization racked its brains to pull him back, but never once did it succeed under the watchful eye of the Joker. They had no choice but to arrange for me to keep an eye on the surroundings. I originally thought that the clown must have taken up a lot of energy in order to fight wits and courage with you, and he would not take care of Tao Mingliang's side, so I took the opportunity to sneak in and prepare to destroy the evidence in Tao Mingliang's hands. I didn't expect to bump into a few of you. ”
"Obviously, the clown not only did not forget this gentleman, but also turned him into a link in this chain of life and death." Yang Wenbin muttered, "You, me, and all of us are just a link in this chain." ”
Poppy frowned, "What did you say?" ”
"Nothing." Yang Wenbin waved his hand, "At least now it's obvious that your colleague Mr. has turned into a crazy murderous ogre. And our last murderer was eaten by him in this way. We'd better start the investigation quickly before more bodies emerge. ”
Although, a large part of the three of them already understood in their hearts that by the time they found Tao Mingming, it was likely to be a corpse.
At this moment, the dusty TV in Tao Mingming's living room sounded a "hissing" sound as if it was suddenly psychic, and then the screen slowly lit up.
"Have any of you ever touched that TV?" Yan Junli asked.
Everyone shook their heads.
Yang Wenbin frowned, and basically knew what was going on in his heart, "Let's go, go over and have a look." ”
The old TV still had snowflakes on it, and it was very blurry. Just as Yang Wenbin guessed, the slowly lit up TV screen showed not a TV program and a station logo, but an exaggerated clown's face.
"Can't he just contact us in such a scary way?" Li Hong muttered.
"Good evening, everybody." The clown gentlemanly took off the funny hat on his head and saluted to the screen, "Captain Yan, Doctor Yang, Little Follower Li, and that one over there is a fresh face, beauty." ”
Yang Wenbin reached out and grabbed the remote control and pressed the power button, but it didn't work.
"That's a good try, but you don't really think it's going to work, do you?" The funny clown face on the screen gets more and more hateful the more you look at it.
"Stop. Stop all this! Yang Wenbin said threateningly, "Otherwise, you will wait to be broken into thousands of pieces by us!" ”
"Wow, look at you." The clown let out an admiring "tsk" sound, "When will our little White Rabbit doctor threaten people too?" That's a big step forward. ”
At this moment, Yan Junli suddenly walked out of the door in silence, and after a while, he walked in with a loaf of bread in his hand, "Wen Bin, I think this may be better than the remote control." If you count to three, I'll smash this TV series to a pulp. ”
"Oooo Don't be impulsive! The clown obviously didn't know where he could see the situation in the house completely, and he hurriedly put his hands in front of his face on the screen, "Brother, calm down!" I'm here to give you important clues, don't you want clues? ”
"Then you'd better have something to say and fart." Yan Junli put down the stone and said unceremoniously.
"Well, well, as a police officer, you really don't have much patience." The clown spread his hands, "Then I'll make a long story short, first of all, congratulations to Dr. Yang for actually breaking through this level, it's not easy!" How does it feel to waste your efforts again and again? What does it feel like to be treated like a fool? It's not very pleasant! Look at you, it's pitiful, everybody says you're smart, but to me you're just an ordinary person, a lame ordinary person. ”
"So what?" Yang Wenbin suppressed his anger and asked.
"Oh, dear Physician Yang, don't be angry." The Joker let out an eerie laugh, "It's quite rewarding for me to watch you stupid people follow my game step by step. It's funny how many cases you crack and how many headlines you dominate, and you still can't do anything about me and my game. But the good thing is that I'm a kind person. So I'm going to give you some crucial clues. First, the next game will be the last level, but it will also be the most difficult level in the entire game. As you all know that a good game always has to be accompanied by a perfect boss level. But—"
The clown deliberately dragged his long voice and said, "I doubt that our Dr. Yang is capable of passing this final hurdle. ”
"What did you say?" Yang Wenbin was immediately enraged.
"That's why I'm going to give you a second clue." The clown stretched out his finger and shook it, and said unhurriedly, "You're in Tao Mingming's house now, right?" This place is simply the most chaotic place in the world. To prevent you from squirming like headless flies, I can tell you that it all started with his journal. And the journal was in the drawer at the bottom of the bedside table in his bedroom. Okay, that's all for cheating, I'm open enough to you! Good luck and I'm looking forward to seeing you reach the finish line. ”
As he spoke, the clown snapped his fingers, and the TV screen made a "bang" again, and it turned into a black screen.
There was a brief silence in the room, and it was Yang Wenbin who spoke first.
"So, logs, right? Let's take a look inside the bedroom. ”
"Wait, are you really going to do what he says?" Poppy immediately turned his head to look at Yang Wenbin, revealing an incredulous expression.
"What else else can we do?" Yang Wenbin said angrily.
"Do nothing! Why do you have to follow his heart? He's a cunning criminal! Poppy retorted.
"And then we're going to let these people die in vain without investigating who the killer is?"
"I'm curious what the use of you finding the murderer! These people who died either died of their own lives, or they committed great crimes, and they did not deserve to live at all. What's more, it looks like every murderer you find is already a corpse, right? Poppy said politely, "This whole thing is a big scam, there is no need to fall into the trap yourself!" ”
"But the clown is giving me a war letter! He doesn't think I can solve his riddle! ”
