Chapter Twenty-Four: Another Dead Body
Chapter Twenty-Four: Another Dead Body
The whirring wind slashed against the car window, Ling Fan looked through the window glass, his face was anxious, but his mind echoed what Aunt Zhang said to him when she left, at this time he already knew who the person who took those photos from Liu Hongfeng's portrait album was, but he didn't seem to have the motive to kill Zhang Xiaoming
Only then did Ling Fan call Chen Yuzhen back again, telling her that her situation just now was a little special, and then Chen Yuzhen told Ling Fan that Zhang Xiaoming wanted to drown in the school lake of Huairen Middle School, and was found by two students, a man and a woman, who were passing by and reported to the police.
With a squeak of emergency brakes, Ling Fan jumped out of the car like a rabbit and ran towards the gate of Huairen Middle School with Tianyu.
At this time, a large number of curious students gathered on the shore of the school lake, standing behind the yellow warning tape and tiptoeing inside, and talking from time to time.
Ling Fan and Tianyu squeezed in front of the yellow cordon from the onlookers, and got in, where two policemen wanted to stop them, but were stopped by a heroic female police officer waving their hands.
"Sister Zhen, what's going on?" Ling Fan saw Chen Yuzhen and asked hurriedly.
"Alas...... Like Cui Li's death, you go and hear it. Chen Yuzhen's face was filled with an extremely ugly expression, which usually appeared when she was in a clueless situation.
I saw a long white cloth appear on the grass in front of me, and under the white cloth it was very obvious that there was a corpse, and the white cloth was soaked with water on the corpse.
Ling Fan lifted the white cloth, only to see Zhang Xiaoming's miserable white face appear in front of him, the nasal cavity of the corpse was stuffed with mud and sand, and the lungs were bulging.
Then Ling Fan carefully examined Zhang Xiaoming's whole body, but found that there was no external injury on his body, only there were bruised finger marks on his two ankles, and sure enough, just like Cui Li's death, he was forcibly dragged into the water and drowned in the lake.
"How's it going, what did you find?" Chen Yuzhen squatted next to the corpse and asked expectantly.
"No......" Ling Fan said truthfully, "Sure enough, the last participant of the Four Corners Game was not spared, Sister Zhen, didn't I ask you to follow him up?" How could he die suddenly? ”
Chen Yuzhen's face flashed with a hint of guilt, and said: "Originally, I followed him well, but he seemed to find out my existence, so he returned to the dormitory, so I waited for him outside, but I didn't see him come out for a long time, just when I was suspicious, I suddenly heard a scream from the school lake, and then I ran towards the school lake, but when I arrived there, I saw a man and a woman and two students falling on the grass, they looked at the lake in horror, and then I saw Zhang Xiaoming's body floating on the lake......
"I think he must have jumped out of the window of the boys' dormitory." Ling Fan rubbed his fingers over the remaining rust foam on Zhang Xiaoming's corpse's clothes.
"What do you think this is?" Tianyu, who was squatting on the side, suddenly reached into Zhang Xiaoming's collar as if he had found something, and then a thin red line was slowly pulled out, and then what appeared in front of him was a yellow thing tied to the red line, with strange symbols painted on it.
Ling Fan took the yellow thing off Zhang Xiaoming's neck and observed it carefully, always feeling as if he had seen this thing somewhere, but he couldn't remember where it was.
"Isn't this a spirit rune?!" Finally, Chen Yuzhen, who was still well-informed, shouted in surprise.
"Yes, it's a spirit rune!" Ling Fan slapped his palm on his head and exclaimed.
The word spirit rune flashed a laser in Ling Fan's mind, and he hurriedly stared at the yellow spirit rune stack again, the familiar handwriting of wild grass, isn't this the handwriting of Lao Gu?!
This talisman has been looking at the color for a long time, and I don't know what the red mark on the yellow spirit rune is made of, and it is still bright red as blood after so many years.
"Wait!" Ling Fan hurriedly poured his thoughts to Fang Cai's spirit for a flash, he remembered the small mountain village where a terrifying incident happened that Gu Rufeng mentioned, he once had a spirit talisman around a boy's neck, so that he could avoid being hurt by the evil spirit, could it be that Zhang Xiaoming was the little boy back then......
"Brother Ling Fan!"
Xin Yan's voice suddenly sounded behind Ling Fan, and she saw Xin Yan in pink clothes and Gu Rufeng in strange clothes squeezing over from the crowd, but they were blocked by two policemen outside the yellow cordon, and Lin Xin waved her little hand towards Ling Fan.
Chen Yuzhen motioned for the policeman to let the two people in, and Xinyan and Gu Rufeng trotted all the way to everyone's side.
"Haha, Ling boy, I calculated that I could see you here, look, haha, let me in!" Gu Rufeng's nerves became big when he saw Ling Fan.
Ling Fan didn't have the heart to talk to this person with some nervous problems now, and said coldly, "What are you doing here?" ”
"Ling boy, you conscienceless thing!" Gu Rufeng's playful face just now suddenly turned angry, and said, "Didn't you say that you wanted me to check the small village where the 'Four Corners Game' originated!" ”
"Oh? Have you found it? Ling Fan asked in surprise.
"Haha, that's of course, with me, a wise and brave and wise and martial artist, how can I do it! Wow Kaka! Gu Rufeng crossed his hands on his hips and laughed wildly.
"Brother Ling Fan, don't listen to Uncle Gu's nonsense, in fact, the girl found it, that small mountain village is called 'Zhenggang', it is far away from Qingshan, it is in the south of another province, it is a remote and isolated small mountain village." Lin Xinyan pushed Gu Rufeng away, jumped in front of Ling Fan at once, and pulled his arm to beg for merit coquettishly.
Hearing this, Ling Fan's eyes suddenly lit up, and his face showed a look of surprise and said, "Old Gu, hurry, what do you see this?!" ”
Ling Fan handed the yellow spirit rune in his hand to Gu Rufeng, Gu Rufeng looked at the spirit rune in his hand with a look of surprise on his face, and muttered, "Isn't this my 'evil spirit talisman'?" How could it be here?! ”
"It's hanging on him." Ling Fan pointed to Zhang Xiaoming's corpse.
Gu Rufeng stared at that Zhang Xiaoming for a long time, raised his head to look at Ling Fan, and said suspiciously: "This person is not the little boy I put the spirit talisman on his neck back then......"
"What?! Isn't this guy the little boy he was back then?! Ling Fan pointed at Zhang Xiaoming and shouted, and a sense of foreboding surged into his heart again.
Gu Rufeng shook his head and said: "Although the little boy was still young back then, the shape between the eyebrows will not change, I am sure that the person I gave the spirit talisman to him back then was not him, but a little boy named Chen Nan." ”~
