Chapter 8: Another Spirit?

Inside the black SUV, parking lot of the Municipal Rehabilitation Center for Mental Illness. The rain was still falling outside the car window.

"Geng Tingwei ran with a woman weighing 65 kilograms, just ...... Special patients, bare hands to tear down the hospital's specially made iron fence, why do they have such amazing strength? Looking at the hospital and police staff who were scrambling in the rain outside the car window, Xing Yuan expressed the doubts in his heart.

"The heavier the inner grievances, the stronger the power will be," the tall man sitting in the co-pilot responded to Xing Yuan, "Extreme malice can make the body of a normal human being reach the limit in an instant, releasing unimaginable power, I have personally seen a person possessed by a spirit, tearing something in half with his bare hands, the picture is very cruel, I said something, you should know what it is." ”

"May I ask who you are?" Xing Yuan reacted at this time, and he didn't ask about the stranger's origin.

"My name is Han Shan, Boss Wu's subordinate." Han Shan looked at Xing Yuan's sharp gaze from the rearview mirror and clasped his fists in salute.

"You have an assistant, why are you looking for me?" Xing Yuan looked at Wu Mourning in the driver's seat from the rearview mirror.

"The task is arduous, boy, the division of labor is different, if you want to minimize the impact of evil spirits on the present world, you need people with different abilities to work together, and you are selected because of your criminal investigation ability and execution ability, as well as the courage to burst out infinitely in order to solve the case." Wu Mian replied unhurriedly.

"Why is my gun with you?"

"Your gun was stolen by a beggar pretending to be Lao Wu's nephew in the bun shop, but that guy seems to be only interested in kitchen knives, stealing your gun should be in consideration of not being at a disadvantage if you are opposed to you, but you turned around and left that day, and the beggar threw the gun and kitchen waste together, and I fished it out again while he was not paying attention." Han Shan took the words and replied.

"Were you there that day?" Xing Yuan asked.

"I'm observing the situation of the bun shop, and I just happened to meet you who was injured and unconscious, otherwise who do you think was the one who threw a bun to Geng Tingwei to lure him away?" Han Shan responded.

"Oh, thank you for saving my life," Xing Yuan's sharp eyes showed a little more gratitude, "I still have a question, since you have confirmed that the beggar is the source of all this evil, why don't you take direct action and ...... the beggar before he can control the minds of the other victims" What about uniforms? ”

"Uniforms? You mean to kill him? Wu Mourning shook his head, "If this is the case, we don't recommend acting as a violent vigilante again, but if the beggar is not the one who is possessed by Wu Gensheng's evil spirit, rash action will only startle the snake." ”

"Everyone ate the buns he made to become like this, could it be that there is someone else who is possessed by Wu Gensheng's spirit?"

"Boy, just yesterday, I also thought that this was the case, there is no doubt that the beggar was possessed by the spirit, we are actually ready to do it, but Han Shan suddenly sensed that the spirit resentment on the beggar did not match our previous investigation portrait of Wu Gensheng." Wu Mourning's voice sounded frustrated with a hint of fear.

"You mean to say that in this case, there are two spirits?" Xing Yuan's eyes widened.

"It is very likely that this is the case, the murderous beggar is likely to have been possessed by a spirit before he did it to Wu Gensheng's father and daughter." Han Shan took over and said.

"If that's the case, it would be terrible." Xing Yuan lowered his head and muttered to himself, suddenly thought of something, and raised his head, "Brother Han Shan can feel the spiritual resentment?" ”

"Yes, this is my special ability, in the afternoon I just felt a sudden increase in spiritual resentment near the mental hospital, so we rushed here, but it was still a step late."

"Is there anyone else on your team?"

"There is another person, who is a computer whiz, she can infiltrate any system and query the information we need to have, and you will have a chance to meet her in the future."

"A thoughtful descendant of a soul slayer, a person with special abilities who can sense spiritual grievances, and a computer hacker who can read confidential files at will, it's no wonder that you can always accurately analyze the entire case situation and judge the devil's next move."

"Boy, you can slowly understand our team, and now our most urgent task is to find out Wu Gensheng's spirit. At present, Wu Gensheng hates beggars, he just kills and kills all 26 beggars in the county; And the beggar of the bun shop is just making human flesh buns, and he is not interested in the killing itself, otherwise you will definitely not be able to walk out of the bun shop safe and sound that day. So the flower that connects the case together, that is, the beggar lacks materials to make buns, and just picks up the remains of the victims, these two spirits, one creates killing, and the other spreads evil thoughts. Wu Mourning carefully analyzed the current situation.

"So who would kill more than two dozen lives?" Han Shan raised doubts.

"Maybe we should ask in a different way, who has the ability to quietly kill more than two dozen lives in a row without being detected?" Xing Yuan added.

Xing Yuan's question made the three people in the car fall silent.

"Boy, has the forensic doctor found any evidence on the cause of death for the corpses fished out at the bottom of the lake?" Wu Mian broke the silence and asked Xiang Xing Yuan.

"There are only bones left, and we can't pinpoint the cause of death, but maybe we should ask the poor corpses for ourselves."

"Okay, boy, let's split up, you go and examine the corpse to see if you can find any clues. This is a mobile phone, you hold it, this mobile phone will not be monitored by anyone, use it to contact me and Lao Han at any time, we can also contact you through this mobile phone. ”

"Understood." Xing Yuan agreed, he understood that this mobile phone was actually used to prevent Wang Liansheng, and Xing Yuan also knew in his heart that before many things were clarified, he could indeed hide it from the Wang team first, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble due to large-scale operations.

"Old Han, you continue to sense the spiritual grievances in this area, prevent the expansion of influence in time, and ...... when necessary" Wu Mourning handed Han Shan a pistol and a cold look.

"Roger." Han Shan checked the configuration of the pistol, and from the action, it seemed that he was also a master of using a gun, but Xing Yuan pretended not to see it.

"I still have an important matter to do, and I'll meet you as soon as I'm done."

The rain stopped, three people, three directions.

Outside the morgue, a long, gray, silent corridor.

Xing Yuan walked in the corridor, and with every step he took, he could feel the echo of footsteps in the long and narrow corridor.

The colleague on duty in the morgue fell asleep deeply, and the entire morgue was silent, but Xing Yuan seemed to be able to hear the dead crying in pain as long as he got close to the corpse, and he didn't know if this was his own special function or pure fantasy.

Twenty-six refrigerated cabinets were all pulled out by Xing Yuan, and Xing Yuan stood between these twenty-six refrigerated cabinets, carefully flipping through the forensic autopsy report.

Most of the information that needs to be filled in is recorded as unknown, but in the column of death status, Xing Yuan found that the time of death of the 26 deceased was basically between midnight and early morning, and there was a small piece of mutilation in the position of the skull at the back of the head, which was suspected to be caused by a sharp weapon blow, and the preliminary judgment may be the cause of death.

Xing Yuan opened the body bag and turned over the skulls of each deceased person to observe them carefully, as if they had been forensically identified. Xing Yuan arranged the skulls in three rows on the dissecting table according to the order of the refrigerator number, and then stood in place to observe carefully, comparing the mutilations on each skull, whether it was in terms of position, size, depth or even the angle of impact.

Xing Yuan stared at the 26 skulls in front of him, and this scene appeared in his mind:

The cold wind was bone-chilling, twenty-six figures knelt in the ice and snow, and a sturdy figure wielded a huge pickaxe to kill the figures kneeling on the ground one by one like an execution. In an instant, the twenty-six dead fell into a pool of blood, and the blood on the back of their heads gushed out, flowing into a lake of blood, which gradually rose, submerging the surrounding sand, stones, and even submerged to Xing Yuan's waist. Suddenly, Xing Yuan felt a chill in the back of his head, and instinctively urged his body to squat down, and then he saw a blood-soaked giant pickaxe slashing above his head......

"Ahh Xing Yuan woke up, his mind returned to reality, he touched the back of his head, and cold sweat oozed out, the scene just now was like being hypnotized.

Xing Yuan turned his head to look at the door of the morgue diagonally behind, which was the direction in which the giant pickaxe in his fantasy just now came from.

"Xiao Gao?"

Yes, it's Xiao Gao, whose real name is Gao Yu, Xing Yuan's senior brother, and the criminal policeman Xiao Gao who made a record for Uncle Cai by the lake in the county's Central Park is him. At this time, Xiao Gao's face was like ashes, his eyes were blank, and he was looking at the twenty-six skulls on the dissecting table in a daze.

"Xiao Gao, why are you here? Do you also want to see if you can find some other clues from the corpse of the deceased? ”

"There's no need to look for clues," Gao Yu said coldly, "I know who the murderer is." ”

"Do you know who the killer is?" Xing Yuan put his hands on Gao Yu's shoulders and asked eagerly, "Tell me, who is the murderer?" ”

Gao Yu's dull eyes slowly turned to Xing Yuan, he looked at Xing Yuan, and suddenly laughed, from the initial giggle and sneer gradually turned into a release laugh, and the entire morgue echoed with Gao Yu's eerie and terrifying laughter, which seemed to make the corpses in the refrigerator tremble.

Xing Yuan realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly took out his mobile phone to call the captain Wang Liansheng to report the situation.

Gao Yu suddenly grabbed Xing Yuan's hand holding the phone, stopped laughing, and said seriously: "Xiaoyuan, listen to me, don't investigate this case again, these twenty-six victims were all beggars before they died, no one in this world cared about their lives or deaths, there was no food and clothing, no dignity, death was actually a relief for them." ”

Gao Yu's cold and powerful hand held Xing Yuan's hand and mobile phone tightly, and Xing Yuan's brain flew at high speed: Gao Yu in front of him was definitely not the usual Xiao Gao, if he stood on the opposite side of him ideologically at this time, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Xiao Gao, you're right, we don't need to care about the lives of these people," Xing Yuan responded while observing Xiao Gao's reaction while following the other party's thoughts, "Then you came to the morgue so late, what's the matter?" ”

Xiao Gao let go of his grip on Xing Yuan's hand, "I'll come, I'll take a look at them again, and then take one last look." ”

"One last look? Kodaka, where are you going? ”

"Another city, where there are more beggars."

The lights in the morgue suddenly went out, and everything went dark.

Xing Yuan took out the lighter he used to light Uncle Cai's cigarette, and the faint light of the fire illuminated a small area.

Gao Yu at the door, gone!

Even if you leave in the dark, at least there should be a little sound, right? Xing Yuan even wondered if Xiao Gao just now had really appeared, or was it a fantasy in his mind? By the faint light of the fire, Xing Yuan put his skull back in place one by one, and then hurriedly left this gloomy place.

Xing Yuan stood under the deep night sky, and everything that was found and happened in the morgue was sent to Wu Mourning and Han Shan in the form of text messages on the mobile phone given by Wu Mourning, and when he looked back at the dark morgue, Xing Yuan suddenly felt a little sad in his heart.

Kodaka, is it really you?
