Chapter 82: A Strange Death
Zhang Fanyang hadn't slept so sweetly for a long time, and he hadn't even dreamed of it.
But when he was sleeping soundly, the earth-shattering telephone rang like a sledgehammer and smashed him up.
Sleepy-eyed, he picked up the phone and saw that it was Captain Tan.
This sleepiness immediately flew far away, happily picked up the phone and said excitedly: "Brother Tan, is my reward fund down?" ”
The other end of the phone was silent for a long time before he said in a deep voice: "If you want to reward funds, then you have to explain to the director well, why did Meng Lao, who you determined to be alive yesterday, have been dead for a week." ”
"What do you say? Who died? ”
Zhang Fanyang sat up from the bed abruptly when he heard this, and now he was completely awake.
A deep breath was heard from the opposite side, and then Captain Tan said in a deep voice: "The director's uncle, Meng Xianzhang." ”
When Zhang Fanyang saw Captain Tan again, he found that he was leaning on the boss's chair with a blue face and closed his eyes to recuperate.
But from his constant deep breaths, you can hear that he is actually trying to control his emotions.
Zhang Fanyang stood on the opposite side of the desk nervously, trying to speak several times but not finding the courage.
Five minutes later, Captain Tan finally opened his eyes and said with a long sigh of relief: "Brother Zhang, come and help me analyze this case." I think we're going to have you help again this time. ”
"Uh...... You're not mad at me? ”
Zhang Fanyang's sincere and frightened expression made Captain Tan smile bitterly: "I said Brother Zhang, I'm angry with myself, Meng Lao died a week ago, but I didn't know until now."
And everything from last night to today is very evil. I think anyone else last night would have the same result as you.
By the way, did you feel something wrong last night? ”
"Last night?" Zhang Fanyang thought for a moment and shook his head, "I didn't really hear an old man's voice outside the door yesterday, but I didn't feel ghostly!" Just ......"
"Just what?"
"But I didn't hear footsteps in the house...... From the time I knocked on the door until the old man answered, there was no movement in the room.
I was a little confused last night, but I didn't feel anything else, so I thought I was knocking too loudly to hear it.
By the way, Brother Tan, you just said from last night to today? Could it be that Meng Lao had something else to do besides the bizarre death? ”
Captain Tan nodded, pulled out a photo from the folder and said, "This morning, after the facial restoration of the female corpse came out, I planned to let the director read it first, and then take it to Meng Lao." As a result, this is a problem. ”
Zhang Fanyang turned out to be in the photo, and he didn't see anything ugly when he looked left and right, so he had to push the photo back in front of Captain Tan and said: "I really can't see anything else except the beauty of this photo." Don't sell it to me, just say it. ”
The director said that this was what his aunt Meng Ling looked like when she was young. But his aunt has been with Meng Lao for more than 40 years, and now she is in her seventies. ”
This time, Zhang Fanyang was also blinded: "No...... Didn't this woman die more than forty years ago? How to ......"
"Yes, when I got the news, I hurriedly took someone to Meng Lao's house, no matter how we knocked this time, there was no response from the house.
In desperation, we broke down the door, and we couldn't find his wife, not to mention, and saw Meng Lao's body lying on the bed in the bedroom, which had become a dried corpse. ”
"Dry corpses? How could it be ......"
"Yes." Captain Tan nodded affirmatively and said, "After a preliminary examination by the forensic doctor, the time of his death was about a week, and the cause of death was that the blood flowed all over the body and died.
And there are two small holes on the left side of his neck that are five millimeters in diameter, as if they were left by a vampire in the movie after sucking blood. ”
Zhang Fanyang frowned and said, "Brother Tan, can you take me to see Meng Lao's corpse?" ”
When he saw Meng Xianzhang's corpse, Zhang Fanyang was a little surprised.
The extent of the shriveling and the wound on his neck indicated that he had indeed been drained of blood and died.
But after careful inspection, I didn't find any strange aura such as ghost qi and corpse qi.
Zhang Fanyang frowned and looked around the corpse, and asked unwillingly: "Is the same with the female corpse?" ”
"No, the female corpse is just an ordinary suffocation death, and there is nothing suspicious on the body except for fractures."
"It's strange to see that this wound must have been the work of bloodsucking aliens, such as zombies and vampires. Then there should be some demonic or corpse qi left in the normal state.
But now he's so clean that he can't feel anything. ”
"Captain, can the director be in your office?"
At a loss, a police officer's voice came from outside the door. Captain Tan answered and was about to leave, when the voice said, "Also, the director wants to see Advisor Zhang by name." ”
Zhang Fanyang pointed at himself suspiciously, and Captain Tan shrugged his shoulders and made a gesture of please: "Let's go, Advisor Zhang." ”
When the two returned to the office, there was a chubby man standing in front of the office window.
When the man heard the voice and looked back at the door, Captain Tan immediately stood up and saluted and shouted, "Gu Ju." ”
Director Gu nodded at him, motioned for them to come in, and then looked at Zhang Fanyang and stretched out his right hand and said, "You are the Zhang Tian mentioned by Mr. Tan...... Ah, no, call Advisor Zhang. ”
Seeing this, Zhang Fanyang hurriedly walked a few steps briskly, bent down slightly to hold his hand, and replied, "Uh...... Hello Gu Ju, my name is Zhang Fanyang.
As for the name of the heavenly teacher or consultant, it is all Captain Tan's love, I am a newcomer to society, how can I afford such a high name. ”
Director Gu nodded, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes, and then put Zhang Tan and the others on the sofa.
"Actually, I'm looking for you two because my uncle's matter is getting more and more complicated, especially the letter I found in my pile of papers today." Director Gu said and took it into his pocket, "I've been working a lot lately, if it weren't for the documents specially reminded by the secretary, I wouldn't have had time to take a look at them until today." Unexpectedly, when I looked at it, I found the letter in the file.
I see that the delivery time was a week ago, and to me it was three days ago. The sender was my uncle.
After reading this letter, I feel that the content of this letter is not something that we ordinary people can understand, and I am afraid that you need to be a professional to help me palm my eyes. ”
Captain Tan took the letter from Director Gu and handed it to Zhang Fanyang.
The latter took it suspiciously, looked at the cover of the letter with Captain Tan, and didn't see anything unusual. It's just that the date of the letter happened to be the day of Meng Xianzhang's death, which was speculated by the forensic doctor.
