Knocking on the courtyard door again, it was still the door opened by the head of the chicken nest. Seeing him again this time, I couldn't help but look at him a few more times.

When he saw me, there was a hint of surprise and vigilance in his eyes.

"Why are you again?" His voice was cold, this time in Chinese.

Before I could answer, Bai Xi took over with a smile and spoke.

"Hello, yes, I came to Thailand for the first time and wanted to see the real head lowerer, so I asked my boyfriend to bring me here. Can we go in and talk? ”

Bai Xi smiled very sweetly, a standard eight-tooth smile.

Hey, don't be so flattering, is it trying to be tempting? This girl is also full of fighting.

Who knew that Zhou Zijie, the head of this chicken nest, didn't eat this set, frowned, and said impatiently: "I'm not free, you guys go quickly!" ”

After saying that, he closed the courtyard door heavily.

"Hey......" I was about to knock on the door again, but Bai Xi stopped me and shook his head, pulling me up and walking back.

"Hey, that's it?" I was unwilling, "We didn't ask anything!" ”

"Go back first, I have a point." She smiled mysteriously.

"Why don't you go into the woods and see the jar?" I asked.

"There's no need."

Back at the hotel, Bai Xi took out a book from the box and flipped it over. I took a closer look, and this is a book about head lowering techniques in Southeast Asia.

After a while, she closed the book, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Let's go again in the evening." ”

"Why go at night?" I asked, puzzled.

"Well, there may be an unexpected bonus." Bai Xi raised his eyebrows, like a naughty child.

I'm a little weird, I don't know what the hell this girl is up to.

When night fell, I looked at my watch, and it was half past eleven o'clock, and Bai Xi pulled me out of the hotel.

Although it was so late, the streets were not deserted at all. The neighborhood of Bar Street is even brightly lit and people are shouting.

We rented a car and drove towards our destination.

When we arrived in the woods, it was already past twelve o'clock. The two of us found Master Panchai's small courtyard in the dark. Gently push the courtyard door, but it can't be pushed, it seems to be locked from the inside.

"Can you flip in?" Bai Xi asked me.

I looked up at the courtyard wall that was more than two meters high, patted my chest and said, "Meaningless! ”

I stood on tiptoe and rushed up hard, grabbed the wall, and held up my arms as soon as I struggled, and I went up to the wall in three times and two times.

"Wait for me to open the door for you."

I jumped off the wall, and was about to open the courtyard door when there was a soft noise behind me. Looking back, Bai Xi had landed lightly and stood firmly behind me.

"Who wants you to open the door?" She hooked the corners of her mouth arrogantly.

The woman is so skilled, please take my knees.

I was a little uneasy, so I lowered my voice and asked, "Will this work?" Let's just break in? Don't let the Thai police arrest you anymore! ”

"Don't worry, I'm measured."

Of the three huts in the courtyard, two were darkly lit, and only the leftmost one had a faint light.

Bai Xi pulled me and walked softly to the door of the room with bright lights. I leaned on the side of the door and listened, but there was no movement inside. She pushed the door, which was also locked.

We went around to the side of the house and saw that the windows of this room were wide open. Bai Xi got into it through the window, and I followed suit.

When I entered the house, I found that there was no one in the house, and things were in a mess.

There was a small wooden plank on the ground near the base of the wall, and when I walked over and looked closely, it turned out to be a small open door. There is a square hole in the floor, and inside is a flight of stairs that descends.

"There's a cellar in this house?" I said in amazement.

Bai Xi nodded.

At this moment, from the cellar there was a flickering light.

I lowered my voice and asked, "Down here...... Will there be anyone? ”

Bai Xi shook his head.

So saying, she walked to the mouth of the cellar and cautiously descended the stairs. I hurried to follow.

After descending the last staircase, the entire cellar space is revealed. It is almost twice the size of the above-ground hut. Looking around, it feels eerie.

In the middle of the room was an incense table, on which two candles were lit, one on the left and the other on the right, glowing faintly red.

A curtain was drawn at the other end of the cellar, cutting off the space inside. The faint candlelight here couldn't reach there, and it was dark inside the curtain.

The two of us walked lightly to the incense case, and saw a black wooden shrine between the two candles, which was actually a piece of skin!

The skin was a foot square, flat, and the corners were nailed to a plank. The leather is also painted with densely packed, completely incomprehensible text symbols.

Bai Xi carefully examined this piece of skin. I stood behind her, feeling a little panicked.

"This, it can't be a human skin, right?" I asked.

"It's obvious! It's not a human skin......"

That's when I breathed a sigh of relief.

“…… How can there be such a tattoo? ”

Auntie, can you not breathe without breathing? My heart, which I had just put down, was tugging again.

"So, whose skin is this?"

Bai Xi didn't answer, and walked inside with his feet.

When she reached the curtain, she stopped, reached out and slowly pulled it open.

There are many bottles and cans stacked inside, large jars and small urns, which may be the equipment of the head descender. When the curtains were all pulled open and my eyes swept to the corner, I almost cried out in surprise for a moment—

There was a person kneeling in the dark shadow in the corner, bowing his head deeply, looking at his figure and dress, it was Zhou Zijie.

He ...... How did he ......"

Bai Xi said lightly: "It's okay, he can't move." ”

Then she took out her phone and turned on the flashlight.

I rubbed my eyes, and after getting used to the light, I realized that Zhou Zijie, who was kneeling on the ground, was not burying his head, but had no head at all!

Defenseless, I was suddenly frightened.

I saw that the incision on Zhou Zijie's neck was neat, and the muscles inside were still twitching at this time.

Bai Xi smiled slightly and said, "Look, I said he couldn't move, right!" ”

"I said aunt, next time there is such a heavy scene, please let me know in advance, lest I be scared and pee, and it will be difficult to clean up!" I grumbled dissatisfied.

Bai Xi patted me and said, "Sao Nian, you still need to go through it!" ”

"I'll go take a look." As she spoke, she approached the body to take a closer look. I was brave enough to follow.

I saw that although there was blood oozing out around the broken neck, the amount was very small, and there was no obvious blood splattering on the ground and wall.

"If you analyze it from the perspective of forensic science, this should not be the first scene of the murder, and the body must have been moved." I said with a frown.

"But if the body is moved, it will take a long time, so why are the neck muscles still twitching?" I looked at Bai Xi in confusion.

"Oh yes, by the way, how did you know he couldn't move early on?" It occurred to me that question.

"Not what you think." Bai Xi pursed his lips and said, "This is the most sinister and vicious head-lowering technique, called flying head-lowering." ”
