Volume 3 The Strange Tales of the Women's Court Chapter 23 The Rat Monster (14I)

The driver of the minibus and the ticket buyer shouted vigorously: "Don't wait, get on our bus!" The bus is off duty today! I don't know when I'm going to go! ”

Hearing this, I was also moved, after all, there was only a difference of two dollars between the two. But for safety reasons, after thinking about it, I decided to wait.

That's another hour!

By the time the belated bus pulled into the platform, my feet were almost unconscious.

Miserable! Waiting for a bus for three hours, until now, the prospective insurer does not believe it. However, at that time, the traffic was not very accessible, and some unopened towns often only had a few buses to and fro.

I had to wait for the autumn water and wait stupidly!

When I got on the bus, I quickly found a seat and sat down, rubbing my numb and swollen heels by the way.

"Hey, brother, why is this car off duty today?" There was a middle-aged man who seemed to be familiar with the driver.

"Don't mention it! It's really declining! The red-faced driver's face turned green, "First of all, there were many police cars driving in the town, and the only intersection couldn't even turn their heads, and they waited in line for a long time; Then after a short drive, the tire burst! When I got out of the car and checked, ***, there was actually a bone that I don't know what kind of beast pierced into the tire! In the end, I found someone to fix it, and it was a chronic person, and I used it for a long time......"

Many police cars? The string in my head is taut!

"Ahem! That one...... How can there be so many police cars in town? "Contrary to the principle of never accosting strangers in public, I cautiously interjected to ask.

"The devil knows?" Lift up the police car. The driver's uncle's green face turned into a black face again. "What bastard is killing people and setting fires. It hurt Lao Tzu to get off the bus three times in a row. This month's bonus is in vain! ”

"Murder and arson? It's amazing! It's been a long time since we've had anything like this here. An old man came up.

"Oh. Did something happen to that teacher's college? "Another uncle suddenly woke up." Some time ago, I also saw a lot of police cars driving into the ground! ”

"Uh-huh. That's right! What's that...... The academy is full of clever girls. It's no wonder if nothing happens! The old man nodded in agreement.

They say a word to me. It makes my heart pound. It wouldn't be so unlucky, would it? Something happened again?

I was in the midst of a crowd of discussions. I stayed up all the way to the terminal with trepidation and restlessness.

As soon as I got out of the car, I felt the abnormal atmosphere.

There were few people in the town, and the pedestrians who hurried by had a little inexplicable panic on their faces.

I turned into the path back to the academy and ran in a hurry.

Seven crutches. I saw the gate of the academy from afar. Several uniformed people were busy around the wall, and there was a wooden figure in front of the window of the communication room.

Oops! Looks like something has happened again!

The center of my earth sank to the ground, but my legs were still running. When I got closer, I saw that three or four young detectives were surrounding the wall, carefully searching for something.

Standing in front of the window was Captain Han, his face was heavy, his worries and confusion were hidden under anger, and he unconsciously turned a pen clenched in his hand. Look intently ahead.

"Captain Han." I screamed softly.

He turned his head blankly and looked at me with his eyes, as if I was just a layer of air.

"Captain Han!" I raised my voice and called.

“…… Oh, it's you! You're back! He quickly suppressed the gloom in his eyes, "Did you have a good holiday?" ”

"Of course it's fun to have nothing to do." I looked at him, "Something happened to the academy again!" ”

I used a sighing tone instead of a questioning tone in this sentence, which seemed even more helpless.

"Another one!" There was a sudden hint of anger in his tone. "It's cruel!"

"Same as before?"

"Pretty much the same!"

"Then they ......"

"They're thoroughly inspecting every inch of the wall to see if there are any subtle traces that were missed last time."

"Do you suspect that someone from outside came in and killed someone?"

Captain Han didn't answer, just turned around and looked at the dormitory building of the academy.

After a while, he sighed slightly: "After you have the holidays, the ambush personnel have not withdrawn, focusing on protecting the few remaining students on the campus." For three days. There are no anomalies. Last night. On the ground floor of your dormitory building, a girl from the 1o1 dormitory suddenly ran out. He said he heard a terrible noise outside the dormitory window. Xiao Liu, who patrolled, was the temporary wardener on the ground floor. I rushed outside to check. Half an hour later, Xiao Zhang and Xiao Qin, who were on the second and third floors, were now unpatrolled on the ground floor, and the door of the 1o7 dormitory could not be opened, and a large amount of blood oozed from under the door, so they hurriedly reported me. When the medical examiner and I arrived, we removed the window and climbed into 1O7. Another girl died, and she died by the door. Because he struggled before he died, the table got stuck between the wall and the bed frame, so it blocked the door! ”

"Where did the ground floor patrol go?" I listened attentively before asking.

Xiao Liu...... I was now lying in the grass in the corner of the dormitory! ”

"Dead?"

"Nope." Captain Han shook his head, "But my consciousness is very confused, I only remember what happened in front of the bushes, and I can't remember what happened after that!" ”

"This girl seems to be different from the previous two." I thought for a moment, "The girl who was killed in front of me didn't have any traces of struggling, right?" ”

"Probably...... It's too late! Captain Han blurted out.

I blinked in surprise: "Too late? ”

"The last two times were unguarded, and the killer had plenty of time...... Well, the murder. This time, we ambushed the earthlings so closely that ......" he said, bewildered himself, "seems to be contradicting ourselves." ”

"yes!" I smiled wryly, "If you have enough time, the struggle should be more intense!" Were they hit the nail on the head all at once? ”

Captain Han also smiled bitterly: "Well, I'm confused!" They all died of blood loss. That's a long time to be sober. ”

"That's weird! The long time did not struggle, but the short time struggled very much...... Why is that? I wondered.

Captain Han couldn't answer, and for a moment, we fell silent.

"Oh, is this girl our freshman? How many classes? What is it called? I asked casually.

"It's a member of the 1o1 dormitory in class 2, and the last name is rare and the name is strange. Her surname is Fire. Captain Han said, "Her name is Huo Fengying." ”

"Fire?" I scratched my head, "It doesn't seem to be this surname in the hundred family names, right?" ”

"If there is no surname in the family, it does not mean that there is no in life." Captain Han replied.

"Hmm. It is better to believe in a book than to have no book at all! I sometimes can't turn a corner. I nodded in agreement.

"Captain Han." Someone next to him called.

We turned our heads to see several young detectives walking over with heavy faces.

"How?" Captain Han asked eagerly.

"No...... Found it! One of the dark-skinned lads shook his head gloomily, "There are no traces of ropes, sharp objects, ladders or anything like that on the wall!" ”

"Will it be useless to climb in with your hands and feet?" Another lad assumes.

"The actual height of the fence is 9.5 meters. It is also full of sharp and long pieces of broken glass, no auxiliary tools, unless it is a master of light martial arts in martial arts! Captain Han sighed, "It seems that the possibility of outsiders committing crimes over the wall should be ruled out." ”

"What are we going to do next?" Other detectives asked.

"Gu Wen, you ask the doorman and the teacher on duty to check carefully, between 8 o'clock and 1o o'clock last night, all the entry and exit situation." Captain Han cheered up, "Yu Jianjun." You and Pony and Wang inspect the entire campus again to see if there are any dead spots. I don't believe it, I won't find a clue! ”

Everyone was encouraged and went their separate ways.

"Is the site investigation over?" I asked.

"The medical examiner went back to the autopsy. I'm going to find out a little more about your dean now, and you can go back and rest first!" Captain Han said kindly.

"Okay." I also wanted to go to the grass outside the dormitory building to see if there was anything to see, so I readily agreed.

Take a few steps. Captain Han suddenly stopped me: "Hey, wait, there's something for you." ”

"What?" I turned back.

"When I went in 1o7, it got on the window frame." He spread out his hand, and inside were several pieces of yellow paper the size of his fingernails.

Rune paper?!

I was secretly amazed!

I took the piece of paper and looked at it closely: the edges were untidy and a little charred. It's what is left after burning. One of them has a faint red cinnabar mark.

"We asked. It is not a thing of the original members of the 1o7 dormitory. A few hints of amazement flashed in Captain Han's eyes, "According to the paper." It may be a talisman used by Taoist priests. You're no stranger to this, are you? ”

"Hmm...... This could be a clue, how can you give it to me? I asked, puzzled.

"I've asked your superintendent (policewoman) to find out. Maybe you're more competent, though. Captain Han hesitated, "Or, you don't want to ......"

"I'll inquire." I intercepted him, carefully slipped the piece of paper into my pocket, and waved my hand towards the dormitory.

I know why Captain Han hesitated, but I don't want to give myself time to hesitate, besides, I have already planned it, I will call after seeing the grass, and I must let Chang Qing come to the academy today!

Walking into the dormitory building, some of the students who came back first were huddled in their respective dormitories, and fear tightly choked everyone's throats, so everyone didn't even want to talk. or lying silently on the bed, or circling in the small dormitory like a sleepy beast, and some timid classmates are sobbing lowly, and the choked voice makes the atmosphere more and more depressing.

I walked to the 1o7 door first. Because all three murders were born here, the door was sealed, and a supernumerary wardenden stood there.

When she saw me, she shook her hand, looked solemn, and motioned not to come closer.

I looked at it from a distance, and there was indeed a large patch of discolored blood under the door of room 1o7, oozing out in a strange shape, which made people feel sorry for it.
