Chapter 413: Vigil
By the time the funeral was over, it was already eight o'clock in the evening, and there were only three hours left before the deadline.
After the banquet ended, Ye Mansion left another group of guests, and there were about less than thirty guests left, which was two-thirds less than the maximum number of people in the afternoon.
Ye Jiang deliberately walked up to Feng Jianguo and said, "Captain Feng, you are busy with work, so there is no need to stay and guard your father's spirit?" ”
"Could it be that Ye always feels that he is not worthy of guarding the spirit of Ye Lao?"
"Where, where, I definitely didn't mean that."
Ye Jiang was polite on the surface, but in fact he hated it very much in his heart, he really didn't know why this captain of the criminal police of the city bureau, who usually had no friendship with him at all, had to stay here today?
Since the person refused to leave, he had no choice but to politely invite the person to the mourning hall.
The Ye family's vigil night is a bit of a merger of Chinese and Western.
Chinese customs, Western layout and way.
As a family member, Ye Jiang took his daughter Ye Fangzhou's nephew Ye Tian, kneeling on the black futon in front of the flower platform, and kept burning paper money into the brazier.
The rest of the guests also gave a futon and placed it on the floor, and sat neatly across from each other.
The monk recites sutras with a wooden fish in the center.
The speakers in the corner of the mourning hall emitted a low mournful music.
In the entire mourning hall with black and white as the main color, there is a sad atmosphere of death.
There is also the choking smell of burning incense paper.
Xiao Sun looked at the central flower platform, which was covered by a piece of scripture cloth, and was a coffin with the corners pressed up by the Buddhist candlestick, and whispered: "The Ye family is really talented, so that the guests will not find that the coffin is empty." ”
"Shhhh Wang Yu reminded.
Xiao Sun lowered his voice again: "Brother Yu, did you say that Ye Lao has become a ghost?" ”
"It can't be a ghost, a ghost is a spiritual soul, it exists out of the body, if Ye Lao really becomes a ghost, then his body can't disappear together."
"It's not a ghost ......" Xiao Sun pondered for a moment and said in surprise: "Is it a zombie?" Ye Lao's corpse has changed! ”
"It's also unlikely, because corpse transformation requires very specific conditions, for example, the first point is that the deceased must die blindly, and the second point must have a suitable environment, and only when these two points are satisfied, the body may produce corpse transformation and become a zombie."
Wang Yu paused for a moment, and then said: "But judging from the current situation, neither of the two conditions is met. I observed Ye Lao's body before, and there was no resentment at all, which means that he ran out of oil and passed away. Moreover, the environment in which the body is placed is by no means an extremely vicious place that can induce corpse transformation, but every mansion in Kowloon Tong is built with great attention to feng shui. Therefore, to sum up, the possibility of Ye Lao turning into a zombie is very low. ”
"Neither a ghost nor a zombie, what has Ye Lao become?" Xiao Sun was a little confused.
"No matter what has become of him, we must find him and obtain the four filthy things." Wang Yu felt in his heart that the changes in Ye Lao were probably related to the purple slugs on the ground before, but at the moment it didn't matter, just like he said, getting what he needed at the moment and going back to save people was the first priority.
Therefore, the precious time cannot be wasted waiting for the rabbit here, and must take the initiative to find it, Wang Yu believes that the body of Ye Lao must be somewhere in this house.
The two of them said hello to Lao Feng, then got up and lowered their heads and exited the mourning hall.
At the door, a horse boy from the Hongjiang Gang stared at the two people who came out: "Why are you two again?" ”
Wang Yu smiled and said, "Go to the toilet." ”
The horse boy looked disdainful: "It's going to the toilet again, and every time you go to the toilet, you have to go to the toilet with two people, how can you be the same as a woman's virtue?" ”
Xiao Sun said with a cold face: "What? Do you have an opinion? ”
Ma Zai said impatiently: "Go and go back quickly, a driver and an assistant, why are there so many broken things?" ”
This time there was no stalking of the two.
Walking around the corner, Xiao Sun suddenly stopped: "Brother Yu, I'm in a bit of a hurry, let's go to the bathroom." ”
Wang Yu nodded and walked to the bathroom with Xiao Sun.
On the way, they saw a lot of people from the Ye Mansion, as well as people from the Hongjiang Gang, who seemed to be looking for something.
"Brother Yu, you said they were also looking for Ye Lao?"
"Of course, or what do you think they're looking for?"
The two came to the previous bathroom, and after the convenience was over, Xiao Sun suddenly said, "Brother Yu, let's release the previous 'eye'." ”
"Okay."
The two of them walked to the innermost compartment with a closed door.
The first time they acted, the Hongjiang Gang Ma Tsai who came out of the banquet hall to keep an eye on them, was stunned by the two and locked inside.
When they were about to reach the door, the two stopped at the same time, and there was an unpleasant look on their faces.
Xiao Sun was surprised and said, "Brother Yu, this ...... It's the smell of blood! ”
There was a lot of heavy-smelling deodorant in the bathroom, so it covered up the smell of blood, and when the two of them were out a little bit just now, they didn't smell it at all.
The smell of blood came from the compartment in front of him.
Wang Yu immediately pushed the door open, only to see that in the small space, the flesh and blood were messy!
The boy who was knocked unconscious by them before would fall on the toilet, his lower abdomen would be torn, his internal organs and blood would be spilled all over the ground, and his internal organs and arms would be gnawed......
Xiao Sun looked at the hellish compartment in a daze: "What...... How so? Who did it? ”
Wang Yu calmly found a few slugs on the ground, which were stained with blood and dyed black and red.
Xiao Sun also found these slugs, and he trembled and said, "Could it be that Old Chen did it?" ”
Wang Yu nodded silently.
In addition to the slugs, the two also found several bloody handprints on the wall, which followed the wall until they disappeared into the ceiling.
The exhaust vent in the ceiling of the compartment showed signs of being opened, and it was clear that the murderer had climbed up the wall after killing the unlucky guy.
Wang Yu didn't have any reason, and also climbed in.
Xiao Sun hesitated, but followed up.
There was a lot of dust in the exhaust ducts, which were almost just the size of an adult.
Wang Yu estimated that the exhaust system of this mansion is a whole, which means that all rooms can be accessed through the exhaust pipe.
Xiao Sun ate a mouthful of ashes, and couldn't help complaining: "You said that this Chen Lao is true, there is such a big road down there, he doesn't take it, why do you have to drill into such a place?" ”
Wang Yu said faintly: "I like to drill into narrow crevices, isn't this the nature of reptiles?" ”
……
In the mourning hall, although the vigil had only begun for less than an hour, the bored guests were already lethargic as they sat on the futons.
Suddenly, everyone was awakened by a shock on the ceiling and looked up.
But the movement was fleeting, and it soon returned to normal.
The guests thought that rats had run by, and they all withdrew their gazes, not paying attention.
Only Feng Jianguo was still frowning and staring, and he didn't know why, he suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.
Ye Fangzhou burned the paper and whispered, "Brother Tian, did you hear any sound on the ceiling just now?" ”
Ye Tian nodded, and said nonchalantly: "Maybe it's a mouse." ”
Ye Fangzhou said: "Will there be rats this winter?" Could it be the weird bugs we saw before? ”
Ye Tian felt uncomfortable physically and mentally as soon as he thought of the slimy and unknown things he was crawling on his back, but he still comforted his cousin and said, "Zhouzhou, don't think about it, that kind of insect is so small and soft, how can it make such a loud sound just now?" ”
"What are you two muttering? Like what words! ”
Ye Jiang turned his head and glared at him seriously, and the two of them immediately continued to burn paper, never daring to talk to each other again.
"Ah!!h
At this moment, an obese middle-aged lady in the guest area suddenly stood up from the futon and screamed, she kept jumping her feet and grabbing her clothes with her hands, as if something had fallen into it.
"Help me! There are bugs! Bugs have fallen into my clothes! ”
