Chapter 557: The Murder Weapon
Wang Yu then asked, "What about later?" ”
The township chief said: "This matter has always been a knot in everyone's hearts, and for a long time after that, the villagers did not dare to approach the river, until two years later, when the village passed by a small Taoist priest, everyone raised money to ask him to do it." The little Taoist priest told the villagers that those eels that are more ferocious than snakes are actually called water ghost fish, they are the resentment of the people who drowned in the river, they are extremely fierce, they like to eat people the most, they lie in wait and nocturn, and live in the mud at the bottom of the river. This fish does not actively attack humans during the day, and generally only attacks living people in the water at night, just like ghosts. ”
When Wang Yu heard this, he frowned and said, "If those eels don't take the initiative to attack humans during the day, then why was Zhou Wei attacked to death by them?" ”
The township chief explained: "The little Taoist priest said that although the water ghost fish generally do not take the initiative to attack humans during the day, there are exceptions. Unless it's to make the ghost fish smell human blood. Because once the water ghost fish comes into contact with human blood, it will become very violent. I also said that the little Taoist priest dripped his own blood into the river, lured all the water ghost fish to the shore, and then used a charm to make them appear ghost shapes and subdue them, and finally suppressed them under the water. ”
Wang Yu groaned: "In other words, the reason why the water ghost fish attacked Zhou Wei was because Zhou Wei was bleeding?" ”
Obviously, the blood was not flowing by Guojun, because in the illusion of memory before, he could see clearly that Guojun did not have any wounds on his body when he was pulled up from the river.
Ning Xue was also puzzled: "After Zhou Wei jumped into the river, how could a good person bleed to attract water ghost fish, and finally caused a catastrophe to himself?" And I can't figure out why they didn't attack Guojun when they were all attracted to it, but let Guojun return to the shore unharmed? ”
Wang Yu stared at the river and said, "I'm afraid I have to go down again to find the answer." ”
When Ning Xue heard this, she immediately objected: "You still want to go down?" No, you can't go any further! Didn't you just hear from the village chief, that strange fish are day and night, and now it's late at night, what if you want to go down and run into them? ”
The township chief and Director Wei were also persuading Wang Yu not to go into the water.
Wang Yu said resolutely: "I must go down and take a look, don't worry, just a few eels, even if they are turned into powerful ghosts, I, Wang Yu, will still ignore them!" ”
With that, he jumped into the water.
The township chief looked at the undulating waves on the water and praised him sincerely: "This young master Wang is really a master of art and bold." ”
After entering the water, Wang Yu took his mobile phone, turned on the flashlight, and sank to the bottom of the river.
He focused on the area where Zhou Wei's body sank before rummaging.
After looking for about two or three minutes, there were aquatic weeds and silt everywhere, and there was no harvest.
Ning Xue's worried shouts came from above.
Just as he was about to give up on going ashore, the light of the mobile phone flashlight seemed to shine on the mud or something, emitting a shiny reflection.
Wang Yu immediately swam over, and gently gouged away the aquatic weeds and silt at the flash with his hand, and found that there was a sharp folding dagger underneath!
This dagger, which is about 12 centimeters long, is enough to break a person's stomach if used properly!
"Poof!"
Wang Yu broke through the water.
"Are you alright?"
The three people on the shore immediately gathered around with concern and asked.
"I'm fine, and I've found something that could most likely be the key to solving the case."
Wang Yu excitedly showed the dagger in his hand to the three of them.
"Is this a murder weapon?"
Ning Xue asked in surprise.
Wang Yu didn't make any answer, but said, "Let's go and verify who the owner of this dagger is." ”
Director Wei looked at the four corpses on the ground and said, "Then what should they do?" ”
Wang Yu said: "I will put it here for the time being, and when your police come tomorrow, we will transport it back." ”
The group left the riverbank and returned to the village.
Seeing that this road was going to Guojun's house, the township chief said in surprise: "Young Master Wang, do you suspect that this dagger belongs to Guojun?" Do you suspect that Guojun's kid killed the dog? This is absolutely impossible, Guojun's kid is the best, most obedient, and most emotional among them, how could he do such a thing? ”
Wang Yu said: "The township chief, for the police, only talk about evidence, not feelings. Only Kokujun went into the water alone that day, and this dagger is most likely his. ”
Director Wei also agreed with Wang Yu's opinion, after all, he was not familiar with Guojun, and he was not so preconceived like the township chief, but he said with some worry: "Let's just take the knife and ask Guojun's parents, what if they see something and lie to us?" ”
Wang Yu said confidently: "You don't have to worry about this, I have a way." ”
……
Xu Guojun's house.
Xu's father and mother were sitting in front of the hall, watching TV absentmindedly.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
Mother Xu went to open the door, but found that there was no one in the yard.
"How so? Did I hear it wrong? ”
Mother Xu was about to close the door when she suddenly found a silver dagger on the ground.
She picked it up and ran into the house excitedly, saying as she ran: "Lao Xu, come and see, is this our son's knife?" ”
"Isn't that our son's? What are you all fuss about, it's not like you haven't seen it before. ”
"I picked up this knife at the door! Didn't someone knock on the door just now? I went to open the door and saw no one, but I saw this knife on the ground! You said...... Do you think Guojun is back? ”
"Really? Get out there and check it out! ”
As soon as the husband and wife ran out of the door and came to the courtyard, a gust of wind suddenly blew in front of them, and they couldn't open their eyes.
This wind of evil comes and goes quickly.
"Yikes! What about knives! ”
"Isn't the knife you've always carried?"
"yes, I've been holding it in my hand, why did it suddenly disappear."
When the husband and wife reacted, they realized that the dagger was gone.
……
Wang Yu held a dagger in his hand and walked up to the three of them.
The township chief forgot the Xu family below in disbelief and said: "I really didn't expect that dagger to be Guojun's, it was really Guojun who killed the dog!" ”
Wang Yu said helplessly: "I never said that if I prove that the dagger is Guojun's, it proves that Zhou Wei was killed by him." ”
On the contrary, the township chief couldn't understand: "If the person was not killed by Guojun, then why did his dagger fall at the bottom of the river?" Even if he carried it on his body, if he didn't take it out, he wouldn't fall to the bottom of the river, since he took out the dagger, didn't he want to kill, or what did he want to do? ”
Wang Yu said: "The bottom of the water is overgrown with weeds, maybe Zhou Wei was entangled in the aquatic weeds at that time and couldn't get out, Guojun took out the dagger, originally planned to cut off the aquatic weeds to save Zhou Wei." ”
The township chief was immediately relieved: "I also felt that Guojun could not be a murderer from the beginning. ”
Wang Yu said again: "The statement that the water and weeds are haunted just now is just an inference of mine, and it does not prove that the person was not killed by Guojun." ”
The township chief was about to be dizzy.
Director Wei whispered on the side: "Miss Ning, this friend of yours, he must also be a policeman?" And he is also a very good police officer. This inference of guilt and innocence have all been taken to the extreme. It's really admirable. ”
Before Ning Xue could answer, Director Wei received a phone call.
After he cut off the phone, he said excitedly: "Great, the people at the hospital said that Xu Guojun has woken up." ”
Wang Yu said excitedly: "Great! He woke up just in time! Let's go back to the county! ”
Before leaving, Wang Yu once again instructed the township chief: "Don't approach Zhou Wei's corpse casually!" ”
The township chief agreed, and when he got home, he took a look at the lock in the room from a distance, and then went back to sleep with confidence.
Wang Yu had been driving for a day, and Ning Xue felt sorry for him, so she asked to drive it herself.
She followed Director Wei's car closely and drove at high speed on the quiet country road in the middle of the night.
When passing by a small town on the street, Wang Yu kept looking sideways and looking back.
Ning Xue asked curiously, "What are you looking at?" ”
Wang Yu retracted his gaze and said, "It's nothing, maybe I've seen it wrong." ”
He actually felt that the young man who was walking on the street with his head down just now was a bit like Zhou Wei.
