Chapter 447: The Body Under the Horse's Hoof
The person who died on the scaffolding at the Junli Hotel has not yet been investigated, and after a week, another person has died at the site of the blockade.
The incident happened at about 3 o'clock this morning, a manager of the Junli Hotel sneaked into the hotel in the middle of the night and died in the hotel lobby.
His death was also horrific.
The lobby of the hotel is very magnificent, three floors high, the second and third floors are the hotel's restaurants, bars and other facilities, from the door to enter, you can see the crystal chandelier hanging from the ceiling, and a circle of corridors on the second and third floors. In the middle of the hall is an indoor sculpture and a fountain – a man standing on a horse.
The manager died under the horse's hooves.
"What do you mean to die under the hooves of a horse?" The fat man asked suspiciously.
"Stuck there?" Guo Yujie guessed.
"The horse's hooves are blunt, aren't they? How to insert it to death? In that case, it's murder. The thin man said.
Chen Xiaoqiu answered this question: "It's not that you are inserted to death, but you are trampled to death." ”
"Huh?"
All four of us didn't understand.
"The sculpture has fallen." Chen Xiaoqiu raised his arms, his elbows at right angles, and his forearms slapped down from a 45-degree oblique brush to a horizontal level.
I looked at Chen Xiaoqiu's falling palm, and I always felt that the palm wind was blowing against my cheeks.
"That's it...... Stoned him? The fat man asked.
"Yes. And it remained that way until it was discovered in the morning. Chen Xiaoqiu put down his hand, "That sculpture, the horse's front hooves fell, it shouldn't be able to stand firmly, let alone a person underneath." ”
"What about the hind hooves? That sculpture, the horse's hind hooves should be fixed, right? I asked.
"It's disconnected. The horse's hooves and the base are directly disconnected, the fracture is very flat, and there are no traces around. Chen Xiaoqiu said, "These are the two suspicious points that were discovered as soon as they arrived at the scene, and the rest still need to be investigated." ”
"Then we can't go to the scene yet?" The fat man asked.
Chen Xiaoqiu nodded.
With two cases in a row, the Junli Hotel will definitely continue to be blocked, and we unrelated people will not have a chance to get close.
It is estimated that the police are now locking down more strictly.
There are many witnesses to the "scaffolding suicide case", and after the normal investigation process is completed, it is time to close the case and continue the construction of Binjiang Avenue. If it weren't for the unexplainable problems, the endless emergence of conspiracy theories and detectives on the Internet, and the government's concern about the influence of public opinion, the on-site lockdown would have been lifted long ago. In this case, the manager probably did not enter the hotel in the middle of the night and died quietly, but should have had an accident in broad daylight and in full view of everyone, just like the "scaffolding suicide case".
Once is a coincidence, and twice is hardly a coincidence.
It will be difficult for the police to close the case now.
"What is your uncle going to do?" The thin man asked.
This case is probably impossible for a normal person to find out.
"He plans to record it first and let Gu Mo listen to it." Chen Xiaoqiu said.
"Isn't it monitored?" The fat man asked.
Hotels are generally monitored.
"After the lockdown, the hotel was completely closed." Chen Xiaoqiu replied, "And even if there is, it will be stored as evidence, and it will not be taken out before the case is closed." ”
The staff who committed suicide on the scaffolding were photographed by the surveillance before, but only Chen Yihan saw it, and a few of us didn't have a chance to see it.
Chen Yihan went to find Gu Mo that night, and several of us were also called.
Gu Mo took headphones and was surprised while listening to the audio: "What did you use to record?" It's a good collection......"
Then Gu Mo didn't speak again, listening carefully to the content of the recording.
A few of us didn't dare to disturb, and we all held our breath.
Nangong Yao was very relaxed, looking at something with a PAD on the side, and didn't pay attention to this matter at all.
After a while, Gu Mo took off his headphones, and the player progress bar on the notebook also went to the end.
"How?" Guo Yujie asked impatiently.
"Didn't hear anything." Gu Mo spread his hands and said that he couldn't help.
Chen Yihan frowned.
"In that case, you still need to go to the scene to see it." The fat man said.
"What about it? Do you expect this kid to see a ghost and get rid of it? Gu Mo pointed at me.
I looked at him quizzically, "There's something going on...... I would like to check it out. ”
I don't dare to pack a ticket to solve this problem on my own.
"The stuff there isn't a ghost." Nangong Yao suddenly spoke.
"What's not a ghost?" Guo Yujie asked hurriedly.
"It's a spell or something." Nangong Yao lifted his glasses, "Junli Hotel should have been arranged since it opened. Well...... Maybe it's a feng shui array. ”
I was a little stunned.
"So what's going on now?" The thin man asked, "Just because you want to raise the foundation, that feng shui array was destroyed?" Construction hasn't started yet, has it? ”
"I don't know." Nangong Yao looked down at the PAD again, "I can only be sure that the Junli Hotel I saw before is different from what I saw on the TV news during this time. That array has changed. ”
"Do you have a solution?" Chen Yihan asked.
Nangong Yao shook his head.
"The spirit understands this better, and the old Tao understands it too. We're not going to do that. Gu Mo closed the program on his notebook.
The thin man looked at me subconsciously.
"Do what?" I tugged at the corners of my mouth, "I'll go back and dig out Wu Ling's missing file to see if I can save her?" ”
"Xuanqing, you can't get in touch?" Chen Yihan ignored my offer.
In fact, the feasibility of my proposal is not high.
Gu Mo happened to be pitted by the events recorded in the archives, and Aoba's people deliberately kept that audio. Nangong Yao's matter is not so related to the archive incident. We don't know what Wu Ling's situation is, and we may not have the good luck of Gu Mo at that time - not only the good luck of finding the clues to Wu Ling's disappearance from the archives, but also the good luck of me successfully rescuing her. Nangong Yao is nine deaths this time.
Gu Mo shook his head, "Only Ye Zi knows how to contact him." In addition, I guess that Lao Dao should be avoiding the limelight. ”
"What do you mean?"
"Oh, the love tree before, didn't the old way not appear? There is also that game, which actually came to Minqing City again, and bumped into the people of Yunlong Mountain and killed him. I'm afraid I'm hiding from that thing. Gu Mo smiled, "The old guy who can live for so long knows how to save his life very well." ”
"I've already wiped out that game, right?" I couldn't help but stand up my hairs. Xuanqing real people haven't appeared, maybe it's because I didn't wipe out the game, right?
"Don't worry, you've got rid of it." Nangong Yao smiled at me, "But Xuanqing Zhenren may not know this. He may hide for a while. ”
"When Ge Jiamu was destroyed, he hid for a while." Gu Mo stretched, "So, don't hope for him." ”
"What about you?" Chen Xiaoqiu suddenly asked.
"What are we?" Gu Mo asked casually.
"Why don't you hide it?" Chen Xiaoqiu asked.
Gu Mo and Nangong Yao both stopped moving.
"When it comes to saving people, you accept the commission, and the results are not satisfactory, and you often encounter dangers in the process. There is such a relationship with Xuan Qing Zhen, why do you continue to run the office? Chen Xiaoqiu asked.
Gu Mo was silent.
Nangong Yao smiled, "Probably because of ...... Don't be reconciled. ”
I was stunned.
"I've heard Ling say that Xuanqing Zhenren was adopted by his master since he was a child, and the education he received was also the cultivation of becoming a Taoist. He doesn't think the same way we do. Nangong Yao smiled and looked at me, "You're actually the same, right?" The affairs of the Junli Hotel are none of your business. ”
I opened my mouth.
"Speaking of which, the police don't need to find out the truth if they want to investigate the case." Nangong Yao looked at Chen Yihan again, "What is the result of Junli Hotel, it won't have much impact on you." ”
Chen Yihan had no special expression on his face.
I didn't understand it for a while. The case of the Junli Hotel has affected the most important municipal project at present, how can Chen Yihan, as the chief of the police department, have little impact?
