Seventy-three. Aftercare
Red and blue police lights flickered in the dreary midnight.
From time to time, a bolt of lightning streaked through the gloomy clouds, echoing the police lights.
Two police cars, a fire truck, and an ambulance were parked in front of the psychiatric hospital. The hospital fence gate was open, firefighters were busy going back and forth, and medical staff dressed in white occasionally carried out a white clothed corpse from the hospital.
The situation was worse than Lu Li and the police expected. There was not one, but four, bodies and only the results of the current preliminary search.
The four corpses died to varying degrees, the most recent one was the corpse on the hospital bed that Lu Li saw, and the longest one only had a shriveled layer of skin left on the bones, and it was preliminarily judged to have been dead for more than three months.
The identity of the body is still being confirmed, and the police are matching the database of missing persons, and if the victim is a local citizen of Pingling, it will not be long before the identity is found.
Or maybe not.
The latest information came from the intercom pinned to the chest of the officer, and the corpse was badly damaged, with no clothing or anything to identify it. At the same time, because it has been left for too long. With the exception of the most recent body, the remaining three have little chance of being identified. It can only be compared to the time of disappearance by the time of death.
"Are you sure he said that?"
The trunk of the police car is open.
Lu Li sat on the edge of the trunk, a blanket draped over his body. His old friend, Officer Wen, stood in front of the door, frowning.
Shen Yuqiao squatted aside with his backpack, and Yang Chunxue slipped back to the old-fashioned Xia Lili because she was unwell in front of the police, lying in front of the car window and looking pathetically at this side.
Lu Li nodded: "He has at least two accomplices, one is called Wen Jian and the other is called Ah Yong." ”
"Did the gang commit the crime...... Trouble. It seems that we can only start with the suspect's family. ”
Twenty minutes after Lu Li's alarm time, the police car arrived, and Lu Li, who had already climbed back to the ground through the underground window, waited at the gate, and after seeing that it was an old acquaintance, he would pass through and leave it all out.
Hearing this, the police officer crossed his waist and sighed like a lot older: "It's really getting more and more peaceful recently, the incident at Gangneung High School just happened, and this kind of thing happened again......
Lu Li, who had something to do with himself in both incidents, was silent.
A drizzle fell from the sky, and the flickering police lights were plastered.
Firefighters were still searching the hospital, and the paramedics were temporarily idle, and a nurse came up to the side and asked, "Is anyone hurt?" ”
Hearing this, the police officer pointed at Lu Li: "He has a head injury, please deal with it." ”
"Small problem, just go back and apply it." Lu Li waved his hand and refused, the blood stains in the back of his head had dried up, and the pain had eased.
Although as the heart beats, there will be a feeling of swelling in the back of the head from time to time.
The nurse didn't say anything, glanced at Lu Li a few times and turned back to the ambulance.
"You're hurt?" Shen Yuqiao realized it later, and the big eyes under the round-framed glasses looked at Lu Li.
"Hmm."
"You wait, I seem to have a medical kit...... Shen Yuqiao opened his backpack, found a small box of medical kits, unfolded it, and pulled out a band-aid.
"Where's the Band-Aid?"
Lu Li didn't want to refute her kindness, and replied calmly: "Paste the place that is not in the way." ”
"Oh!" Closing the medical box, putting it back in the backpack and pulling up the zipper, Shen Yuqiao stood up and approached Lu Li, and put the band-aid on the ...... His forehead.
This band-aid is actually in the form of a pink bow.
Hearing that the police officer's compassionate seriousness was instantly replaced by ridicule, he raised his eyebrows and smiled strangely: "Rejuvenate the second spring? ”
"She is Shen Qian's cousin."
"Oh~ that guy." Officer Wen suddenly realized, obviously having a deep influence on the assistant: "What about others? Going to pick up the Oscars? ”
"Died in the line of duty."
Hearing this, the police officer was shocked, revealing the shock of learning that the familiar person had died: "How did he die!" ”
Lu Li took out the umbrella with his hands, opened it with a bang, and covered the drizzle: "I'm not dead, but I'm injured and asked for leave." ”
"Please don't mess around with idioms...... But then again, how did you get here? ”
"You know I also have a side job, slaying demons or something." Lu Li talked about the absurd and uninhibited content in a serious way: "Not long ago, I received a commission to come here to find the identity information of all the mentally ill patients, and by the way, to find out whether there are really supernatural events in the Sixth Mental Hospital. ”
"So you found the paranormal event?"
"There's something suspicious." Lu Li thought about it for a while and decided to reveal the hole to the police: "In the operating room where I woke up, something seemed to crawl out of the hole in the corner after Richard lit the brain lamp...... You can look into the hole with your colleague and there may be a problem with it. ”
Officer Wen was stunned, and shook his head with a smile: "I believe in science, I told you not to do this." What is the saying? As you look into the abyss, the abyss is watching you, and the dragon slayer will eventually become a dragon. You've been dealing with all these unwarranted ghosts and weirdness, and sooner or later you're going to go crazy. ”
"I went to the doctor and said I was normal." Lu Li replied, thinking back to the retention and sigh of the psychiatrist after the last time he went.
It's like seeing a fireplayer who doesn't listen to dissuasion.
"Okay, do it if you think it makes sense." Officer Wen of course knew who Lu Li was doing this for, so he didn't say anything except sighing.
"Who's the client?" He asked again.
"The other party is anonymous." After Lu Li answered, he tilted his head slightly: "Are you very idle?" Talked to me about useless nonsense for so long. ”
Officer Wen, who knew what Lu Li's temper was, was not angry, and replied with a few dry laughs: "On the contrary, I am too stressed to relax." ”
He blushed slightly, and finally became serious: "Okay, now let's get down to business." Because this matter is related to you, maybe in the next few days we will come to you to ask some questions, and then you send me the recorded video, and I will take it back to the city bureau for analysis. Another point, there is a group of crazy people on the other side, and there is a high possibility that they will retaliate against you, and I will discuss with my superiors to send the police to guard the vicinity of your detective agency 24 hours a day. Be honest lately, don't run around. I'm serious, the guy you're messing with this time is different from the stinky fish and shrimp you've been doing before. ”
"Hmm." Lu Li nodded and transmitted the video to Officer Wen's mobile phone.
"Alright, you guys go back, I'll finish it."
Hearing that the police officer walked to the hospital, Lu Li and Shen Yuqiao also returned to the car.
"What did you say?" Yang Chunxue came over, curious.
"Said on the way." Lu Li inserted the key and prepared to start the car.
At that moment, a van with the logo of the city's television station slowly approached the end of the road, drove past the old Xiali, and stopped next to a group of vehicles with flashing police lights.
However, the scene was almost over, and they didn't eat any hot.
