Chapter 13: Words for Communicating with the Gods
After Lin Keren left, Zhang Tianyi locked himself in the conference room, and he plugged the USB flash drive into the computer and repeatedly watched the surveillance when Wang Youcai was killed. Wang Youcai's body was pulled to the morgue of the hospital by Senzi, the interrogation room was not cleaned up, the murderer left a lot of clues in this crime, although there were no direct clues, but Zhang Tianyi felt that it was necessary to carefully examine it again tomorrow.
Zhang Tian took a puff of cigarette, just like Lin Keren said, the monitoring at the time of the crime had no picture at all, and the monitoring during that time was always in a snowflake screen state, and it didn't return to normal until Zhang Tianyi and Lin Fan came back.
Zhang Tian smoked cigarettes one after another, and the video was played over and over again. I don't know how many times I played it, but suddenly there was an intermittent murmur in the video, a bit like a cassette sound when the signal was interfered with.
Zhang Tianyi touched his chin and played it again, at this time the noise in the video gradually became clear, although it was still the sound of a cassette, but Zhang Tianyi felt that the noise was traceable, pausing from time to time, loud or small volume, and undulating radio waves, this series of changes seemed to be transmitting some kind of message to the outside world.
At this time, Zhang Tianyi suddenly remembered that the German agents transmitted the signal during World War II, that is, to transmit intelligence to their country through a sound wave, which was safe and reliable, but also not easy to be discovered and deciphered by others. Similarly, could this sound wave in the video also be code? Thinking of this, Zhang Tianyi didn't care what time he took out his mobile phone and dialed Lin Fan, when Lin Fan answered the phone, he was still asleep listening to the voice, Zhang Tianyi didn't say much and asked him to come over early tomorrow morning.
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Tianyi yawned, looked at the time, and found that there was still a while before dawn, so he rested in the conference room. Before he could lie down, his mobile phone rang, and the sudden ringing startled Zhang Tianyi.
Zhang Tian looked at the caller ID and felt a little familiar, and after thinking about it carefully, he found that it was the mysterious call from before. This call was made to him when Zhang Tianyi returned to his hometown before, but he didn't receive it because there was no signal, and Zhang Tianyi deliberately dialed it when he came back, but the other party showed that it was always a busy signal. This point came, Zhang Tianyi hesitated, but still clicked the connect button.
After the phone was connected, the other party didn't speak, and after a while, Zhang Tianyi couldn't help but ask, "Hey?" Who is it? ”
Zhang Tianyi looked at it, the phone was still on the phone, but the other party still didn't make a sound, Zhang Tianyi asked a few times and the other side was silent.
"Inexplicable......" Zhang Tianyi said and hung up the phone.
I could have slept for a while, but now it seems that I don't need to, Zhang Tianyi lay on the sofa and picked up the information of several deceased people on the table and looked at it.
The information was sent by Zhang Tianyi to Lin Keren, originally to see if there were any clues in it, but Zhang Tianyi accidentally discovered the connection between several deceased.
From the deceased in the first murder to Wang Youcai, who was killed last night, they all have one thing in common, their birthdays are all on March 3.
"March 3rd...... What does it mean? Zhang Tianyi racked his brains and didn't come up with a reason.
The next day, Lin Fan rushed to the police station at dawn and brought two breakfasts when he came. After Zhang Tianyi finished washing, he wiped his face with a towel and asked, "Is there any news about the text?" ”
Lin Fan took out the breakfast and put it on the table and said, "Not yet, but I contacted the uploader of the picture, it is a reporter from a newspaper in another province, and the picture was taken by chance when she went out to look for materials." ”
"Where did you shoot it?" Zhang Tianyi sat down and asked. Lin Fan took a sip of soy milk and said, "Bashu." Zhang Tian nodded and said to himself: "Bashu? Is it really a person walking the dirt gate in the picture? ”
"By the way, you can't just want to have breakfast with me if you're in such a hurry, right?" Lin Fan quipped. Zhang Tianyi took two bites of fritters and took out last night's scratch paper, pointed to it and asked, "Do you feel familiar?" ”
Lin Fan took it and looked at it for a while and said, "It's a bit like a sacrificial ...... going through the earth gate."
"That's right." Zhang Tianyi stood up, looked at the sun that had just risen in the sky, and then said, "I only found out after you left." The murderer deliberately put Wang Fugui's limbs like this, and I always feel that the murderer intentionally or unintentionally induces us to follow the route he planned, in other words, our every move is under his nose. ”
"Do you still need to check Yang Yong's side?" Lin Fan asked, propping his chin. Zhang Tianyi drank the last sip of soy milk and said: "Of course you have to check, let's go to the Tumen side first, and the top priority is to figure out the curse of the white fox." ”
"By the way, there's one more thing I need your help with." Zhang Tianyi told Lin Fan about his discovery last night, and then played the video again.
The video is still a snowflake screen, but the focus is on the sound waves. Lin Fan listened for a while, thought for a while, and said, "If I'm not mistaken, it should be Morse code." ”
"Can you decipher it?" Zhang Tianyi asked. Lin Fan frowned and said, "Yes, but it will take some time." ”
As soon as Lin Fan finished speaking, the mobile phone rang a prompt tone, and Zhang Tianyi asked, "What's wrong?" Lin Fan looked at Zhang Tianyi and said, "The email sent by the professor, he said that there is news in the text!" ”
Zhang Tianyi beckoned Lin Fan to sit down and said, Lin Fan sat down and read the email and said: "The professor said that this kind of writing is very ancient and he doesn't recognize it, but he said that this should be the script of a primitive tribe, and it should be the Tumen." He also said that the written word is not used by the people of the tribe to communicate on a daily basis, but ......"
"And what?" Zhang Tianyi urged Lin Fan. Lin Fan squinted his eyes and looked at it again and said, "It's the language of the main priest of the tribe when he communicates with the gods......
"The language of communication with the gods?" Zhang Tianyi was taken aback, and then asked, "Can you translate the text on it?" ”。 Lin Fan shook his head helplessly and said, "The professor said that there are no more than ten people in the world who can translate this kind of text. ”
After a while, Lin Fan's lowered head suddenly raised and said with some surprise: "I know, there is a person who may know the text on it!" ”
"Who?" Zhang Tian suddenly asked consciously. Lin Fan stood up and said as he walked, "Do you remember the picture uploader I just told you?" I chatted with her for a while last night, and I wanted to ask where the pictures were taken, but I found that she seemed to be very knowledgeable about the Tumen tribe, and I thought she should know the words. ”
"Is she reliable?" Zhang Tianyi asked with some concern. Zhang Tianyi's worries are not unreasonable, now these cases are claimed to be criminal cases, but so many things are slowly involved, in case the reporter is unreliable and shakes out the truth, it will be difficult to end in the end.
Lin Fan also knew the seriousness of the matter, but so far there was no other better way, so he could only try.
At this time, Zhang Tianyi's mobile phone rang suddenly, and it was Lin Keren calling. I only heard Lin Keren say a little anxiously: "Boss, take a look at today's news......"
Lin Fan also heard the amplification of the mobile phone, so he took out the mobile phone and looked at it, and then handed it to Zhang Tianyi without speaking.
The news was updated at six o'clock in the morning, and a series of stories were all about the cases. What is the curse of Ping'an Town, vampire crimes, serial killers' next target and other articles, the media speculated wantonly, and the whole town was panicked.
Lin Fan stood aside and didn't dare to speak, and Zhang Tianyi then answered another phone call. As soon as the phone was connected, Zhang Tianyi didn't have time to speak, when he heard Li Yude roaring over there: "Zhang Tianyi! Don't you want to do it! How can I tell you, look at today's news, the provincial bureau made several calls early this morning, and the entire police station made you jump! ”
Although Zhang Tianyi was aggrieved, he still had to echo with a smile on his face, until Li Yude gradually calmed down and asked, "What about the suspect?" Has the suspect confessed? ”
Zhang Tianyi said with a wry smile: "Bureau Li, the suspect was killed last night...... There was silence on the other side of the phone for a while, and then he heard Li Yude say: "Zhang Tianyi! I officially inform you that the post of director of your police station is temporarily held by Lin Keren, as for you, go back and rest for a year and a half before coming back! ”
Li Yude hung up the phone with a snap after speaking, and Zhang Tianyi squatted on the ground and rubbed his face with his hands.
"Tianyi ......" Lin Fan didn't know what to say.
Zhang Tianyi waved his hand and said, "I'm fine, you go back first, don't forget that we have to go to Sanli Coffin Town in the afternoon." ”
Lin Fan nodded and went out, and when he went out, he happened to meet Da Kui and others, Lin Fan patted Da Kui's shoulder and motioned him to take a look.
"Boss, are you alright?" Da Kui walked in and asked. Zhang Tianyi stood up and said, "Bureau Li called me just now, but someone has temporarily appointed the post of director of the Ping'an Town Police Station, and you must cooperate with her well in the future." ”
"...... me?" Lin Keren pointed to himself and said with some doubts. Before Zhang Tian could open his mouth, Senzi asked, "Boss, what about you?" ”
Zhang Tianyi smiled and said: "Don't worry, I will definitely arrest the murderer, and you will be responsible for cooperating with Keren's daily work during this time." ”
After hearing this, Senzi wiped his sweat and said, "Scared me, I thought the head was opened by Li Yude's old boy!" ”
"What are you kid thinking about all day......" Da Kui pretended to punch Moriko.
Zhang Tianyi also knew that this was just a formality, and the murderer had not been caught in several murders in Ping'an Town, so he had to give an explanation to the above.
In fact, it's okay, Lin Keren is in charge of the affairs of the office for the time being, as for Zhang Tianyi, now the case is gradually showing signs, so that he can concentrate on figuring out the matter of the White Fox Curse.
