Chapter 67: A New Case
It is true that there are many people in a family, and it is very warm when getting along, but at least there is one thing that is not good for no one, that is, you can't sleep until you wake up naturally.
When you live alone, you sleep until you wake up naturally, and you can't stand it until you're hungry, or you can't help it~ you can't help it, and you can just cook a bowl of noodles and eat it.
But not when there are other people in the family.
The next day, I slept until about nine o'clock when I was awakened by a knock on the door.
As the head of the family, of course, I can't just play dead and let the knocker in.
It was Tang Jiang who came in. Presumably he had something to report to me, and at this time he came knocking on my door, and he was already very tolerant of disturbing my rest. Otherwise, maybe you should come to me at six or seven o'clock.
I didn't bother to get up, I just stuck my head out of the quilt and said lazily: "Just say something, look at you like this, didn't you sleep well last night?" β
Because I saw that Tang Jiang's spirit seemed to be a little bad, and his eyes were red, I asked this.
Tang Jiang smiled bitterly and said, "Why didn't you sleep well? I didn't sleep at all. I didn't come back until six o'clock this morning, and I was afraid that it would disturb your rest, so I came to report to you now. Sitting in the living room, I almost fell asleep. β
"Then why don't you go and get some sleep? It's the same with a report later. I said angrily.
Tang Jiang smiled reluctantly and said, "I'm afraid I'll fall asleep, I don't know when I'll wake up." β
"Then tell me what you have to do." I said, "After that, go and rest." β
Tang Jiang said: "First of all, the matter of the pistol. Yesterday we received more than 600 long and short guns, of which 150 were automatic long guns, and the rest were all short guns, and they were very well loaded. These things have been sent to Chen Zhenxue. However, Chen Zhenxue said that it would take at least a week or so to transform all these long and short guns and bullets into weapons that could deal with souls and zombies. β
I thought about it for a moment and said, "I should be able to get some of it out today, right?" First equip these things with Gundam and Li Changdeng, they are now investigating this case, and they may encounter danger at any time. β
Tang Jiang nodded and said, "Okay." I have already told Chen Zhenxue that we should be able to get about a hundred of them out this afternoon, and they are equipped with enough ammunition to equip all these brothers around us. β
"That's good." I say.
Tang Jiang continued: "The other is the problem of personnel. Zhang Jichang has already received a notice that within three days, about 300 elites drawn from various places will come to report. Zhang Jichang has already found a station near their unit to settle these people. The order from above has come down to appoint this unit as a special operations group for special events. You are the commander-in-chief, and Gundam is the deputy commander-in-chief. β
I couldn't help but stick my head out a little, and asked with great interest: "Did you say that what level am I as the commander-in-chief?" At least that's a colonel, right? Did I say to whom am I accountable? Who is my immediate supervisor? β
Tang Jiang thought for a while, shook his head and said: "I didn't say this, I just said that if you encounter a special case, you will have full authority to deal with it, and military and political officials everywhere have no right to interfere." β
I was surprised and said, "That's a big right." β
Tang Jiang smiled and said, "Who said it wasn't? However, it is emphasized that this is only for 'special events', and you can't interfere with other things casually. The letter of appointment was with me, and I forgot to bring it up. β
I smiled and said, "I don't bother to care about other things." If I could, I wouldn't want to care about anything, wouldn't it be comfortable to sleep at home every day? β
Tang Jiang smiled and continued: "There is one last thing......
As he spoke, his smile narrowed: "Last night, we found another victim......"
I jumped out of the bed and shouted, "What did you say? Found another victim? Why didn't you report me last night? β
Tang Jiang said with a solemn face: "Yes, it's just that when Gundam and I received the report yesterday, it was already past eleven o'clock in the evening. By the time we went to see the scene, it was already past twelve o'clock. I think the lord should have rested and shouldn't bother you, so I didn't call back, and I came back early this morning to report you about itβbut lord, you better go back to the bed, like this...... It's a disappointment......"
I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then I remembered that I used to wear nothing when I went to bed. But Tang Jiang is also a big man, so it doesn't matter.
I was about to get back under the covers when I heard a scream: "Ahhhh
I hurriedly looked back, only to see Zhu'er covering her eyes, and rushing out with her eyes covered like the wind.
I couldn't help but blush and hurriedly slipped back into the covers.
Tang Jiang stood next to him and said with a smile: "Look, it's scared, right?" β
I couldn't laugh or cry, who knew that Zhu'er would come at this time, this is too coincidental, right? At this time, it's just a matter of running, and she doesn't knock on the door when she enters Lao Tzu's room, which can be regarded as a lesson for this girl, and see if she dares to be disobedient in the future!
Having said that, I still felt very embarrassed in my heart, my heart was beating non-stop, and my face felt hot.
Zhu'er may have been scared by me, and after running out, she didn't come back for half a day.
"Let's talk about you." I took a deep breath and barely managed to compose myself and said, "What about the victim you found yesterday?" Did you find any new clues? β
Tang Jiang groaned and said, "Here's the problem. On the surface, the victim was similar to the child we had seen earlier, wearing red clothes and skirts, with his whole body tied, and then the person was hung from a beam with a heavy weighing weight hanging from his feet. And then also two holes in the neck, died of blood loss......"
I frowned and asked, "You said on the surface...... What does that mean? β
Tang Jiang said: "On the surface, this victim is almost the same as the child we saw before, and it should be said that it is exactly the same. But in reality, a closer look reveals a big difference. β
"How?" I asked hurriedly.
"Specifically......" Tang Jiang said in a deep voice, "First, the rope tied to the corpse is completely different. The previous deceased, the rope on his body was tied very professionally, but this time it seemed much more amateurish; The second point is that after investigation, the deceased had just turned thirteen years old, but he had not just passed thirteen days. This point is different from several other deceased, and it does not meet the conditions for Maoshan Taoist priests to kill people and take souls to refine Taiyin and refine form......"
I couldn't help frowning even tighter, and muttered to Tang Jiang's words: "I don't meet the conditions for Maoshan Taoist priests to kill people and take souls to refine Taiyin and refine form? β
Tang Jiang nodded and said, "That's right. We have analyzed before that most of the murderers are refining the Taiyin and refining the form, so they are specifically looking for the souls of those children who are thirteen years old and thirteen days old. But now this little kid doesn't meet this qualification, which is a little strange. β
I pondered, and for a moment I couldn't get the point, so I asked, "Have you found anything else?" β
"There is one of the biggest doubts." Tang Jiang said, "That is the small hole in the neck of the deceased, which was not caused by teeth at all, but artificially made with other tools!" β
"Huh?" I was amazed and said, "How can there be such a thing?" β
Tang Jiang said: "I have looked at it carefully many times, and I can be sure that the small hole in the neck of this deceased person will definitely not be bitten out by teeth. β
I nodded, expressing my trust in Tang Jiang's judgment.
"So......" I muttered for a moment, and said uncertainly, "someone is deliberately imitating the way the dead died before?" β
Tang Jiang said a little excitedly: "I think so too!" This person deliberately imitates the methods of others, in order to blame others! β
