Chapter 69: Bloody Night
Walking down the village for a week, Ji Kun found that the building structure of this village is all houses made of wood, and even the windows are papier-mâché, which does not look like a house in this era at all, that is, there are very few houses in any poor village or some ethnic minorities now, let alone all the houses in a village.
This can't help but remind people of paradise, isolated from the world, as if the village is separated from the outside world. Some things that are not available here, such as slogans, billboards. Moreover, it is surrounded by mountains, and there is not even a single telephone pole, which means that there is no electricity in it.
"Xiao Kun, it's strange, there are a lot of chicken pens in this village, but I found that there is not a single poultry, no, I should not have seen even a living creature." At this time, Lin Shu came over.
"It's strange, there's no one, where have all the people in this village gone?" Others also came together one after another.
"Goo~" a stomach scream was remembered as loudly as thunder in the crowd.
The fat man scratched his head in embarrassment, "Are we going to eat first, I'm a little hungry." ”
Indeed, since getting on the bus in the morning, these people have not eaten for almost a day, but no one has brought it up and.
"Let's find out what's in these houses, and since there's no one here, let's use this as a place to stay." Sister Du made a decision.
In less than a quarter of an hour, the whole village was searched, and some broken rice and some soybeans were found, Sister Du proposed that these materials could be cooked into a pot of porridge to fill the stomach first, and the rest was kept for tomorrow morning.
No one objected to this decision, and those who knew how to cook immediately took action, and the fat man took out the bag of instant noodles that he had left uneaten and poured it into the porridge.
After eating, Sister Du began to deploy again, now there are fifteen people in total, divided into five people in a room, preferably three rooms connected, considering the possible dangers in this unknown place, they can be taken care of quickly.
In the end, Ji Kun, Lin Shu, Zhao Li, Xiao Min and Qiqi were in one room, three men in one room, and two women in one room.
In the dead of night, Ji Kun couldn't sleep, everything he experienced today was too bizarre, his brain was very messy, and he didn't feel sleepy at all. He quietly got up and walked out of the room, and sat on a stone bench in the courtyard outside the room, looking thoughtfully at the bright moon in the sky.
Suddenly, a black shadow quietly approached him, Ji Kun's cold hair trembled, his back was facing the gate of the courtyard, that is to say, someone came in from outside and came to his back, which was a feeling of chill on his back. In an instant, Ji Kun had prepared several ways to subdue the people behind him, and Ji Kun at this time focused all his attention on the people behind him.
"Can't sleep?" A gentle female voice disintegrated all Ji Kun's vigilance, it was Xiao Min!
Ji Kun turned around, his heart fluttered, Xiao Min only had one piece of clothing draped over her body, the hem of the dress was very long, and it almost fell to her knees, as if she was wearing a dress, her snow-white legs were exposed to the air, and a jade hand was playing with her wet hair, and there were water stains on her hair that slowly flowed from her neck into the clothes.
Ji Kun swallowed his saliva and asked, "...... are you?"
"Oh, I've been walking for too long, I'm sweating, it's so uncomfortable, I can't sleep." Xiao Min directly interrupted Ji Kun's words, "I saw a well at the entrance of the village just now, so I waited until you all fell asleep and then went to take a bath." ”
Xiao Min playfully stuck out her tongue, and Ji Kun also found out that she was carrying a wooden barrel in her other hand, and she didn't notice it when she was looking at people just now.
Xiao Min generously put down the barrel and sat down on the stone bench next to Ji Kun, the two big white legs shook in front of him and then crossed together, sitting in a very ladylike sitting position.
Ji Kun kept staring at Xiao Min's actions, and when she sat down and glanced at her, Ji Kun coughed dryly, awkwardly avoided it, and said:
"Won't you go in and sleep?"
"What's the hurry, it's idle anyway, it's idle, it's better to chat." Xiao Min didn't look very reserved, and talked to Ji Kun with a chuckle.
"What are you talking about?" Ji Kun was a little nervous.
"Don't worry, I won't ask you about solving the case, just talk about it."
"Hmmm......"
There was a long silence, and neither of them started the topic, just stared into the distance.
"You say, can we really go out tomorrow?" Or if Xiao Min took the initiative.
"Perhaps!" Ji Kun didn't know, he always had a faint feeling that this trip would not be as simple as he thought.
Xiao Min nodded, as if she was still satisfied with Ji Kun's answer.
"Ahh ~~! A long scream tore through the silence of the night, coming from the house next door.
The discordant sound woke everyone up at once, and when the others rushed to the place where the sound came from, they saw Xu Lu slumped to the ground, staring ahead in horror, and her boyfriend Zhong Jiyun comforted her on the side.
"What's going on?"
"Blood ......" Xu Lu pointed ahead, and everyone followed her fingers, there was a blood stain in the hall, and the blood stain spread to a side door of the room, the side door was ajar, and the blood stain extended along the side door to the outside of the house. The blood was formed by being dragged by someone, and the blood had not yet dried, and the blood had been left here not long ago.
"Who, whose blood?" Lao Zhou hurriedly asked, his trip was unsettled and wave after wave, which made his emotions a little overwhelmed.
"Who didn't come?" Lin Shu asked immediately.
Sister Du began to count the number of people, and found that Dong Zhong's follower did not come, and everyone's eyes looked at Dong Zhong, asking him for an answer, because the two of them lived together.
"I... I don't know, I fell asleep, and when I was woken up by you, I found that he wasn't there, and I don't know when he went out. Dong Zhong shook his hand in a panic.
"The blood hasn't dried yet, it doesn't come out for more than an hour, and we'll follow the blood trail to find it, and maybe find someone." Ji Kun looked at the blood on the ground and made a judgment.
Ji Kun's reputation as a detective has been spread by Xiao Min from time to time, so these people can still listen to his words.
Along the side door, the bloodstains extended all the way to the mountains and forests outside, and searched forward along the bloodstains, and the bloodstains were terminated by entering the mountains and forests for a hundred meters, and at the end of the blood, in the bushes, a terrifying bloody corpse was lying on the ground. The bloody corpse was not clothed, all the skin and flesh had been stripped off, the miserable white flesh was directly exposed to the air, the corpse's eyeballs were completely protruding, and half fell off from the eye sockets, and the death was extremely miserable.
"Vomit~" I don't know who was the first to stand it, so I retched directly to the side, and then a chain reaction started one by one, and they all vomited to the side.
This visual impact is not something that ordinary people can bear, and Ji Kun Linshu, Xiao Min Zhao Li, and the old couple did not vomit, but the appearance of this corpse made a layer of haze appear in everyone's hearts, the death was too tragic, and the murderer's methods were too cruel and terrifying. If you think about it, there are only a dozen of them in this village at present, which means that this inhumane murderer exists among these people.
Ji Kun looked at Xiao Min and saw her standing aside with a sad face, covering her lips with her slender hands, trying her best to restrain her vomiting. But Ji Kun's suspicion of her rose to the maximum, remembering that not long ago, she was sitting in the courtyard, she came back from outside the house, claiming to have gone to take a bath, but coincidentally, that point in time happened to be the time when the attendant was killed, which means that she had enough time to commit the crime, and she didn't enter the house after she came back, but chatted with herself in thin clothes, is it in order to create an alibi for her. There is also a suspicious point, when she was outside in the woods, she claimed to have been knocked unconscious by Wen Xian, and Wen Xian was gone, what happened in it only she knows, we have only heard her dictation, does Wen Xian's disappearance have anything to do with her? Counting that she was the one who indirectly brought this group of people into this village, all of this Ji Kun felt like she had a hand behind her back.
But what is her purpose, can this somewhat playful girl do such a cruel thing as killing people and picking up skins? Ji Kun still has a question mark in his heart, he has too few clues now, and there may be some of these people who he doesn't know about the existence of the time of the crime.
