Chapter 68: Hanging upside down

As soon as he walked into the door, Shi Nianzhong saw Wen Yuzhe walking towards him.

"Divisional Bureau."

Wen Yuzhe said hello.

Shi Nianzhong nodded and motioned for Wen Yuzhe to walk towards his office with him. He could see that Wen Yuzhe had something to say.

The two sat down in the bureau chief's office, and Shi Nianzhong asked, "If you have anything to say, you can just say it, don't beat around the bush." ”

"Well," Wen Yuzhe agreed, "Division, do you remember the writer's murder case a few years ago?" ”

"Writer Murder?"

Shi Nianzhong, who just wanted to drink water, raised his head and looked at Wen Yuzhe.

"Well, it's the case of the writer named Gu Yangbai who killed his girlfriend......"

Before Wen Yuzhe could finish speaking, Shi Nianzhong interrupted him with a wave of his hand.

"First, the evidence is insufficient, we can't say that Gu Yangbai is the murderer; Second, the case never had the name 'Writer's Murder'. Yuzhe, you have to be strict. ”

"Yes," Wen Yuzhe nodded immediately, "It's been several years since that case, but I've always felt suspicious, so I want to talk to you today." ”

"That case was originally characterized as a random burglary, robbery and murder case, and the murderer was naturally never found. Gu Yangbai has a full alibi, he has been in a nearby supermarket that day, and there is surveillance as evidence. ”

Speaking of this, Shi Nianzhong finally picked up the teacup, took a sip of water, and then continued: "After that case, I also followed some news about that writer on the Internet. It seems that he has never been married since then, and it is said that his writing style has also changed, and he has rewritten horror and suspense, and it has always been quite popular......"

As he spoke, Shi Nianzhong's expression suddenly changed.

He remembered the human head in the nightmare, the face of the strange woman.

He finally remembered that the reason why that face was a little familiar was because it was the face of Gu Yangbai's girlfriend Li Jiali. He had seen photos of the scene and had some impressions of Carrie's face.

But why do I dream of Carrie's face? Don't...... What's really wrong with this case? Is Carrie expressing her displeasure with me?

As soon as this thought came to mind, Shi Nianzhong frowned, because he found that he was actually thinking in the direction of superstition.

Carrie Li is already dead, how can she be dissatisfied? I dreamed of her, mostly because I also felt that there was something wrong with that case deep down and couldn't rest assured.

Shi Nianzhong calmed down and asked, "Yuzhe, has the murder weapon in that case never been found?" ”

"Yes, I didn't find it. According to the forensic examination, the cause of death was a head injury caused by blunt force blows, and judging from the wounds, the murder weapon was not a hammer, brick or other thing with a very clear shape, but looked like a ......"

"Like what?"

"It's like...... Caused by a leg of mutton. Ordinary leg of lamb is naturally not good, so it should be a frozen leg of lamb. ”

"Leg of lamb?" Shi Nianzhong showed a thoughtful expression, "If it's a leg of mutton, then it's easy to explain if you can't find the murder weapon." We used to think that the murderer threw the murder weapon into the river, but now that we think about it, maybe that leg of mutton has been eaten by Gu Yangbai......"

Shi Nianzhong imagined the scene at that time.

The leg of lamb stained with a large amount of Carrie Li's blood was cooked into a dish by Gu Yangbai, and then eaten by Gu Yangbai. As he ate the dish, Carrie's unsightly body was on the floor next to it......

Shi Nianzhong shook his head and closed his eyes with a somewhat painful expression.

"I also know that Gu Yangbai is likely to be the murderer, but we have insufficient evidence to convict us."

He said with a sigh.

Wen Yuzhe also fell silent.

A few minutes later, Wen Yuzhe said, "Division, don't you think Gu Yangbai's alibi is too deliberate?" ”

"It's obvious."

Shi Nianzhong's expression remained unchanged, and he immediately said.

"So, the murderer should be him."

"What's the use of you talking about this now?"

Shi Nianzhong's tone was a little helpless.

Wen Yuzhe was silent again. Although he knew what Shi Nianzhong meant, although he had a lot of unwillingness in his heart, he could only succumb to the constraints of objective conditions.

After a while, Wen Yuzhe also said helplessly: "If Gu Yangbai found a young and beautiful new girlfriend soon after killing his girlfriend, this case would be easier to understand." However, it is really strange that he has always been single......

Speaking of this, he realized that he had a little more to say, so he stood up and said, "Shiju, you are busy first, I still have something to deal with." ”

"Hmm."

Shi Nianzhong nodded.

After Wen Yuzhe left, Shi Nianzhong leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes and fell into deep thought.

Why did Wen Yuzhe suddenly bring up that case again? Why did I dream of the deceased Carrie?

Shi Nianzhong, who was in a state of turmoil, remembered Shi Yuan again. Although Shi Yuan is young, Shi Nianzhong believes that he can solve his doubts.

Just as he was about to open his eyes, he felt a drop of warm liquid drip on his forehead.

Could it be that there is a water leak upstairs?

He immediately opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling.

He gasped sharply as he saw a face.

A female corpse was hanging upside down from the ceiling, her swollen and twisted face facing his face. The woman's long hair hung down, almost sweeping to his forehead. And the drop of liquid he had just felt was the blood flowing from the female corpse's head.

Shi Nianzhong jumped up from his chair in fright, his eyes widening.

He hurriedly ran to the side, not fully standing upright, and looked in horror at the upside-down female corpse.

From his current perspective, he could no longer see the face, only the long hair hanging down. There were still large patches of dark red blood on the long hair.

He had seen too many corpses, but the corpse in front of him gave him a completely different feeling.

It seemed to him, he wouldn't be a corpse, but a ......

He swallowed his saliva, took out his mobile phone tremblingly, and pressed Shi Yuan's mobile phone number again.

It's still "not in the service area".

"Where the hell did this kid go?"

He muttered to himself with some dissatisfaction, his eyes fixed on the female corpse.

Suddenly, the door was pushed open, and a figure walked in.

"Division, the news I just got ......"

The person who came was Wen Yuzhe. Hearing the voice, Shi Nianzhong immediately turned his head to look at him, his face still pale.

"Division, you ...... What's wrong with you? Feeling unwell? ”

"What?"

Shi Nianzhong was stunned for a while.

Can't he see this female corpse?

Shocked, he turned his gaze to the upside-down corpse again, only to find that there was nothing on the ceiling except a normal electric light.

Gone?

He was dumbfounded, staring at the ceiling in disbelief.
