Chapter 17 XVII. Spooky puppet 12
"That's pretty much it, by the way, Su Wanhuai, you're quite capable, after pasting your rune paper, my hands don't sting so much, thank you." Tang Yun stretched out his right hand and waved it, saying that it was to express his gratitude, but he still looked like a ruffian. If they weren't at the police station now, they would have thought they had encountered some big hooligans.
"Saving and helping others is what a cultivator should do. It's just that you can't do this anymore, there are not only five kinds of poisons in the soil, if you have a wound on your hand at that time, and you touch it, you may be poisoned to death in less than a stick of incense. Su Wanhuai said. These are really no jokes. Since Tang Yun had no wounds on his hands at that time, he was only infected with a little corpse poison, and then he was relieved in time, and now he has no worries about his life, but the corpse poison instantly entered the bones, and he estimated that he would have to endure the piercing pain for a few days.
"Well, the expert examined the soil, and it is indeed a very corrosive poison, but Western medicine can only analyze it, and I don't understand what kind of poison it is added together, in addition to poisoning people, what kind of use it will have." Tang Yun smiled, if it was a puppet, I am afraid that the group of people would not want to associate it.
"What is certain now is that the dead or murderer touched the dirt. You have also thought that in addition to venting hatred for dissolving the appearance of the corpse, you should still be afraid of being recognized by the corpse. With current technology, it should not be difficult to find out the identity of the deceased. Gu Tang asked. Although the fingerprints and face of the deceased were destroyed, the difficulty was certainly much more difficult.
"I guess there will be a result tomorrow, do you have any range?" Tang Yun nodded. It's true that the difficulty has increased a lot, but the technical department is already using the computer to restore the appearance of the deceased, and the picture will be available early tomorrow morning. If you can narrow down the range, it will be more convenient to find someone with the picture later.
"None of the teachers, students, or even security guards in the school are missing, so could it be a parent?" Gu Tang looked at Tang Yun. Their school is more traditional, and the teacher's favorite thing is to have a parent-teacher conference, so if a parent has been to a parent-teacher conference, there is a great possibility that he will be recognized at school.
"However, no one has reported the crime for so long." Tang Yun said coldly. If a parent is missing, the family will not be so quiet, the deceased has been dead for a week, even if it is a business trip, it will be strange that there has been no contact with the family.
Gu Tang pursed his lips, this is really incomprehensible. "By the way, that phone..."
"The phone was not the deceased, but one of a batch of phones that had been lost by a stolen phone store. To put it simply, it's a prank. ”
Tang Yun flipped the mobile phone in the evidence bag out of a pile of materials and threw it on the table. As soon as he got the mobile phone, he went to check, and the result was the same as the lost mobile phone in the theft case, so the owner who was stolen came to take a look, and it was really one of the lost mobile phones. Because it was one of the exhibits in this case, he bought it.
Su Wanhuai walked over and picked up his mobile phone, and a trace of suspicion flashed in his eyes.
"It's really unpleasant." Gu Tang snorted coldly, suddenly thought of something, looked down at the time, and unconsciously it was almost twelve o'clock. "That uncle, that's all we can provide, it's not too early, let's go first. The puppet is estimated to come again, in order to solve the case and our lives, uncle, come on"
"I'll send you." Tang Yun stood up.
"No, no, you can still get a taxi at this point. Your hands are hurt, and we don't dare to ride in your car. Let's go, Su Wanhuai. Gu Tang very simply rejected Tang Yun's kindness. I can't even use my right hand to eat noodles, and I'm still thinking about driving, which is a joke.
"It's also done, go out and go to the left, it's easy to get a taxi at the intersection." Tang Yun looked at his hands, but he didn't insist. As if remembering something, he took out his mobile phone and asked Gu Tang to report the number to him.
"Bye." After Gu Tang lost his mobile phone number, he pulled Su Wanhuai downstairs, and halfway through, Gu Tang suddenly touched the jade he was wearing around his neck, untied it, and handed it to Su Wanhuai, "I forgot to return this to you." Thanks, I've saved your life, but you've saved me many more times. ”
Su Wanhuai took the jade in surprise and smiled at Gu Tang. Not to mention Gu Tang, he forgot about it himself. It's also strange to say, this jade was left by his mother, he has been wearing it since he was a child, and he thought that he would never take it off for the rest of his life, but he didn't expect that he would forget the day it existed.
Su Wanhuai still wanted to talk to Gu Tang, but Gu Tang had a tense face, looking not in a good mood.
The two of them walked silently towards the intersection that Tang Yun said.
It was already late, the roadside was quiet, Gu Tang didn't dare to look around along the way, and when he was about to reach the intersection where they were going, he saw that there seemed to be a person squatting under the dim street lamp.
He couldn't help but tremble, stared at the other party for a long time, and then secretly scolded himself for being suspicious, it is possible for a homeless man to not return at night at night. Just as he was about to exhale, the man under the street lamp suddenly moved, slowly turned his head, and grinned at him with his cheekbones.
A scream pressed down on his throat, and Gu Tang's whole person froze in place.
"Gu Tang, Gu Tang, what's wrong with you?" Su Wanhuai sensed Gu Tang's strangeness and asked out loud.
"Ah, I...... It's okay, I'm suddenly a little hungry, let's not rush back, let's go to the convenience store and buy something to eat. Gu Tang said hehe, dragging Su Wanhuai to run quickly to the convenience store that was open twenty-four hours a day.
'Welcome'
Entering the store, Gu Tang looked back, and then he breathed a heavy sigh of relief, and asked Su Wanhuai to get what he wanted to eat, and walked to the edge of the container himself, probably just seeing Tang Yun eating instant noodles so delicious, he also wanted to eat instant noodles a little.
'Welcome'
There was a welcome sound at the door of the convenience store in his ears, and Gu Tang's brain, which was struggling with spicy or sauerkraut, couldn't help but sigh, the store was still so lively in the middle of the night.
Reaching out to take down the two bowls of instant noodles, Gu Tang turned around and faced a miserable but grinning face.
"Ahh He screamed almost subconsciously, and his whole leg fell to the ground weakly.
A bucket of instant noodles rolled to the other person's feet, and through the person, to the corner shelf.
It's the guy just now! No, not people, not people at all!
Gu Tang trembled violently, watching that person's face begin to become hideous, blood flowing out of the seven holes, and slowly walking towards him.
Just when Gu Tang was about to collapse, someone behind him reached out to hug him, and Gu Tang felt a warmth in his chest, which turned out to be Su Wanhuai's warm jade.
"Gu Tang, are you okay?" Su Wanhuai put the jade on Gu Tang's neck and helped him up.
"Su Wanhuai, that ...... That ......" looked back again, and the weird person was no longer there, but the instant noodles that rolled to the side let Gu Tang know that it was not an illusion just now.
"Gu Tang, it's okay." Su Wanhuai hugged Gu Tang and looked in the direction he was looking at, his face was very serious.
Gu Tang was covered in cold sweat, and he grabbed Su Wanhuai and couldn't speak.
