Chapter 8: The Pretender
Just as the door was open, the workers who were painting the wall saw Zhang Yichi, stopped what they were doing, and asked in a local accent: "Something?" ”
"I have a little ink splashed on the wall of my house, and I can't wash it, can you help me paint the wall again?" Zhang Yichi instantly changed like a different person when dealing with these workers, and while he said, he took out a hundred yuan from his pocket and stuffed it to the workers, "I'm sorry for you." ”
The worker saw that he shirked it, but Zhang Yichi simply stuffed the money into the man's pocket, and the worker had to grin and say, "No problem, I promise to brush it the same as before." ”
The rest of the workers just smirked and didn't follow, only the black-faced middle-aged worker who received the money followed Zhang Yichi to his house.
"That's it, isn't it?" The ink is so conspicuous that you can see it as soon as you enter the door.
Zhang Yichi glanced at the bedroom where Lu Tao's body was placed with the door closed, nodded and said, "Yes, this is it." ”
"Why did you get splashed here?" The location is indeed a bit strange and the workers are a little confused.
"Accidentally......" Zhang Yichi hurriedly changed the topic, "How long can this be done?" ”
"It's so fast, it dries in less than a day, and you won't be able to tell that it's been rebrushed when you see it." The workers have already picked up the guys and started brushing.
"It's fast." Zhang Yichi watched the workers paint the wall with ease.
It didn't take a few minutes to get it done.
"What's going on?" The worker asked a little triumphantly as he packed up his tools.
"Okay, the master is really amazing." Zhang Yichi praised in passing. The ink and blood stains were indeed covered, and the difference between the newly painted place and the rest of the place was not obvious, and there must be no trace of it when it dried.
"That's it, come to me if you have something, I'll go and get busy first." After the workers finished helping Zhang Yichi brush up, they hurriedly got the things back next door, perhaps because they were worried that the head of the renovated family would find out that they had taken on private work during the construction period.
The blood stains have been disposed of, and for the time being, there seems to be no risk. Zhang Yichi closed the door, and his face returned to cold again. He found a fruit knife, opened the bedroom door with the fruit knife, and walked towards Lu Tao.
Of course, he didn't dismember the corpse, although he didn't deny that this was a good way to dispose of the corpse, second only to eating the corpse, but Zhang Yichi's psychological quality was not too strong, if he had the psychological quality that could be dismembered, he would have directly chopped Lu Tao's corpse into minced meat and rushed it into the sewer.
He's just a calm ordinary person, and it's pretty good to be able to do it to this extent.
He walked to the corpse, squatted down and cut the plastic wrap on Lu Tao's lower body with a knife.
Suddenly, a foul smell came, and Zhang Yichi didn't expect the corpse to stink so quickly.
He untied Lu Tao's shoelaces and planned to take off Lu Tao's shoes. But the corpse was stiff, the corpse's joints could barely move, and it was a little troublesome to even take off the shoes.
Zhang Yichi pulled the shoelaces again, making the opening of each shoe bigger, and then increased his strength again, and then took the shoes off Lu Tao's feet.
The shoes were put aside, Zhang Yichi found plastic wrap again, and wrapped the cut place a few more times, he didn't want to smell the smell of corpses for a whole day.
After doing all this, Zhang Yichi took his shoes and closed the bedroom door again.
Fortunately, there was not much blood on the shoes, Zhang Yichi took it into the bathroom and washed it, and after washing it cleanly, he didn't care that the shoes were still wet, so he put them on himself, put on the school uniform he found in the cabinet, and put Lu Tao's glasses on himself and came to the mirror.
After a few glances, Zhang Yichi neither showed a satisfied expression nor a disappointed expression, poured out the books in Lu Tao's schoolbag, put the schoolbag on his back, and wore a peaked cap, which was lowered and deliberately covered half of his face. After 'debugging' in front of the mirror, Zhang Yichi walked out of the bathroom and took off these camouflage objects and threw them on the sofa.
Now, just wait for the night to come.
Sunday 14 May, 12 a.m.
When the second, minute, and hour hands pointed to twelve o'clock at the same time, Zhang Yichi, who had changed into the outfit he had tried in the morning, stood up from the sofa and left the house with a cold face.
The process of going downstairs was very fast, Zhang Yichi walked out of the unit door quickly, did not look at the camera, but just hurried out of the community.
His route has been marked very clearly, the community - the overpass - the square construction site.
After leaving the community, it meant that Zhang Yichi got rid of the surveillance, which made him breathe a sigh of relief, but cautiously, he still did not take off his hat and continued to move forward with his head down.
There are cameras on the road, but not on the flyover across the road. Zhang Yichi walked on the overpass and glanced at the straight road. There are also a few cars passing by sporadically.
After looking at it like this for a few seconds, Zhang Yichi stepped down from the overpass again and walked towards the construction site of the square.
Yesterday, when he checked the terrain, he only looked this way from the other side of the community, and he didn't really know what the situation was here. Still, he was sure.
There are fences around the construction site of the square, and it is not easy for Zhang Yichi to climb in, so he temporarily decided to change the location and walk forward, maybe there is a more suitable place than the square.
There was hardly a pedestrian on the road late at night, and Zhang Yichi had been walking for twenty minutes, but he still maintained a fast speed. He slept again in the afternoon, so he was still quite refreshed. Especially the cool breeze at night brushed his face, and Zhang Yichi's tiredness had already been carried away.
After walking for 30 minutes, Zhang Yichi saw a small forest, which was a barrier between another community and the road.
Zhang Yichi walked through the woods, stopped in the woods, threw his schoolbag on the ground, threw aside his cap, glasses, and Lu Tao's shoes, and took out the prepared clothes from his schoolbag and changed them.
Black jeans, warm top with hood. It's not an eye-catching outfit. Zhang Yichi pulled the hood down, took out a small bag from his schoolbag, and put the school uniform into the small bag. And Lu Tao's things were packed into his school bag.
Zhang Yichi's identity after the second disguise is neither himself nor Lu Tao. He now has to go back to another unit in his house building as an unfamiliar person, and then go around the basement back to the hallway of his unit and go home.
Because his identity was Lu Tao when he went out, which means that 'he' is still at home, if he reveals that his identity is Zhang Yichi when he goes home now, then this plan will have no meaning.
After changing clothes, Zhang Yichi carried a schoolbag in one hand and a cloth bag for school uniforms in the other, walked through the forest, and found a trash can on the sidewalk next to the road.
The garbage cans in this kind of place usually collect garbage once a day, and Zhang Yichi is not overly worried about the outfit being found. After throwing the schoolbag into the trash, Zhang Yichi put the cloth bag on his shoulder and chose another route to start going home.
