45. Assembled fragments
I looked at the mirror blankly, I don't know if Zuo You and Jiang Yang turned on the hot water to leave this trace, or if someone came after that, I didn't want to call to verify, but when I looked at such a mirror, my hand involuntarily wrote two words on the mirror - help me!
After I finished writing, I suddenly seemed to understand something, and then I took my belongings and went out, and the fragments in my mind gradually formed a complete picture, and when I organized all the pictures together, I slapped my head with my hand, "I'm so stupid!" β
I took a car and went to the scene of the crime.
Along the way, these images were constantly replayed in my mind, and I remember that when I saw Zhou Tongcheng as a food delivery, he was holding half a lemon in his hand, and the lemon had obviously been squeezed through. The scene shows me the phone call from the cell phone that told me to come to the scene of the crime, but when I arrived, I was asked to hide behind the bathroom door. And then to the mist on the mirror just now.
And the most critical part of this is a friend of mine in high school, I didn't go to college because of my father's suicide, but the next year I went to play with this friend, I was staying in an express hotel, I remember another prank he played, that is, he used a towel dipped in lemonade to write on the mirror, after the lemonade stains dried, there was no mark at all, but once the mud hot water was turned on, and the water vapor was stained on the mirror, these would be clearly visible.
At that time, this friend had a funny picture, and he would write on the mirror of the hotel - I died so miserably, when the people who moved in behind him took a shower, they would see the words on the mirror.
It is these seemingly unrelated fragments that form a complete clue, I think, Zhou Tongcheng used the same technique to leave any clues in the mirror at the scene of the crime, when I delivered food to the scene, he was writing.
I walked in after arriving at their community, and when I got downstairs, I remembered that I was in a hurry, and the residents on the twelfth floor had been blocked, and I couldn't get in at all. At this time, I was already at the elevator door, just because the last time I experienced at the elevator entrance, I had a psychological shadow, so I chose which elevator next to me to go up, but what surprised me was that when the elevator came down, there was a person inside, at first glance, scared me, he saw me and just looked at me, came out and left.
I didn't care so much, so I took the elevator up, and now it was a little more than a moment of dawn, and I went up to the twelfth floor before the elevator door opened, and I heard the sound of the TV, and then I saw the door of the house open.
And the sound is coming from inside, the sound of the TV. The house type here is two stairs and two households, He Yuan told me that the house next door moved out after the murder, and was about to sell the house, so the twelfth floor is unoccupied.
It was precisely because of this that I noticed a hint of weirdness.
I went into the house, and sure enough, the TV screen was flickering, and it was more visible in the dark, and I glanced at the living room, and there was no one, but the silence made me uneasy, so to be on the safe side, I closed the door and checked all the places in the room where there might be hiding, and made sure that no one was at ease.
But when I looked at the content on the TV, I was shocked because it was not a TV series or anything else, but a video.
When I looked over, I happened to see one of them, and I saw a lot of people running in the woods, and police dogs, there were dozens of people, like a police force, these people led the police dogs in the woods, as if they were looking for something, because the picture quality was not very good at night, and the flashlights were a little dazzling.
When I saw that it was the woods, my heart twitched, and I immediately thought about me, and when I was thinking about it, suddenly a voice came out of the picture: "There is something here." β
Then the camera moved to this found thing, and I saw a pair of shoes, which were placed squarely on the ground covered with fallen leaves, and those shoes, I remember, they were mine, I was very fond of a small pair of leather shoes when I was a child, but then I lost them, and I can't remember where they were lost.
I heard the voices of the noisy search party say, "It's He Yang's, it's his shoes." β
And as soon as the camera flashed, I saw Fu Shaolou, he was still very young at the time, he didn't lead the police dog, but picked up the shoes on the ground, he said: "It was deliberately left, otherwise there would not be such a neatness." β
At this moment, the person in front suddenly shouted: "There is a human head here." β
Then the camera panned to the front, and I saw a human head on the ground, just mixed between the fallen leaves and the dirt, and I couldn't see it clearly.
I heard Fu Shaolou say, "This is the person we are looking for." β
I saw the camera move a little to the man's head, and I could see some of it, but because the dirt and fallen leaves covered most of it, I couldn't tell who it was except for the eerie and terrible person.
And after the picture is here, it suddenly flashed to another scene, only to see the black and white quality video, I was sitting in front of the camera when I was a child, looking at the camera, this should be when I was five years old, I looked a little nervous at the camera and didn't seem to be flustered at all, and then I heard someone ask me: "You have been missing in the woods for eleven days, where have you been for these eleven days, and what have you eaten?" β
I looked at the camera, but I shook my head, and the voice said, "You know, there is no food in the woods, although you can find water, but you can't live eleven days without food, where did you go?" β
Still shaking my head, the man said to the person next to me, "He still doesn't say anything." β
I was the only one in the picture, and the rest of the people were just voices.
Then I heard another voice say, "Do you remember how you got to the woods?" β
I didn't shake my head this time, but looked at the camera, as if I wanted to say something, but I never said it, and the voice said, "Don't be afraid, just say whatever you think?" β
I looked at the camera, and I wanted to speak but I couldn't seem to speak, and I was a little anxious, but there was still no urging or sound on the other side, and then I said a few words: "Fish." β
After hearing this, the other party asked, "What fish?" β
I said, "Three fish." β
I heard the first voice say, "He said three fish." β
After that, the voice did not answer, but continued to ask me, "You mean that you have eaten three fish in the past eleven days, right?" β
I bit my lip, as if hesitating, and said, "No." β
He asked me, "What's that?" β
I then picked up the on the table and wrote something on the paper, I wrote very slowly, but without any hesitation, as if I had memorized what I had written, and more importantly, I was only five years old at the time, which was incredible.
When I finished writing, I saw that I was picking up the paper, and when I lifted it, I saw a string of numbers written on the paperβ9462598.
It's the numbers again!
After looking at the numbers above, the person on the other side seemed to be puzzled, and asked me again, "What is this?" β
I said, "I'm scared." β
He asked me, "What are you afraid of?" β
I said, "Fish." β
Then the camera shifted from my picture to the opposite side, and when the camera turned to the opposite side, I saw one of them, it was the "Jin Mu Rhino" that Zong Mingyan took me to see in the basement of the abandoned factory that day, although the appearance was younger, but I still recognized it at a glance, as for the person next to me, I had never seen it.
I heard "Kaneki" say, "Destroy all the reports and don't let the people know about it." β
The video came to an abrupt end, and I was so fascinated that I felt like I knew something terrible, and I didn't see the beginning, so I got to the TV, which was an old-fashioned VCR with a videotape in it, and I put the tape back in and started all over again.
At the beginning of the shot, there is a picture of a person running constantly, still in the woods, but you can only see the shaking forest and the sound of wheezing, which can be judged to be a man.
