Chapter 21: Disappearing Footprints
Bang bang bang! As soon as the words fell, there was a continuous knock on the door outside, Zheng Hanfei and Ling Hua glanced at each other, and finally under the cold gaze, Ling Hua "consciously" ran over to open the door, feeling a little unhappy, but Ling Hua is not a minor like Zheng Hanfei, and he is much more psychologically mature, so he will not make trouble with Zheng Hanfei because of this little thing.
"Enlightenment? How are you? What's the matter? Seeing Meng Wu outside the door, Ling Hua was a little surprised, but then saw that Meng Wu's face was full of anxiety, Ling Hua suddenly realized what had happened, and then, Ling Hua heard a beautiful singing, his face changed, and at the same time, Zheng Hanfei, who was sitting on the bed, immediately jumped up, turned into a phantom, and disappeared from the sight of the two.
"Let's go!" Ling Hua shouted with a solemn face, woke up Meng Wu, who was still in shock, and pulled him out of the room, and the next moment, Ling Hua found a problem, the beautiful singing voice did not come from a room on the second floor, but from the outside, that is to say, this murder happened outside.
However, Meng Wu seemed to know what was going on, and took Ling Hua out of the room, through the noisy crowd, until he stopped on an inaccessible beach, while gasping for breath, he saw that in addition to himself and Meng Wu, Zheng Hanfei, Mo Gang and Liszt had already arrived here, staring at the beach in unison, Ling Hua even saw that Zheng Hanfei's eyes showed a trace of second personality that had never been dignified.
This is?! Ling Hua followed his gaze, his pupils shrank slightly, on the golden sand, there was a dark green object, although it was far away, but Ling Hua still saw that it was a corpse with his vision of 1.5, and he even vaguely saw the sand under the corpse, which had already been dyed bloody red.
"Don't go over!" Seeing that Ling Hua wanted to rush to the corpse, Zheng Hanfei immediately stopped him and said coldly, "Don't destroy the scene of the crime!" Haven't you noticed that there is a very important thing missing from this beach? ”
Something important? Ling Hua blinked suspiciously, his eyes scanned the entire beach, except for the sand shining in the sun and the corpse that had died, but did not know the identity, Ling Hua did not feel that there was anything missing, if there was one, it was the murder weapon, but from the word "important", it could be heard that Zheng Hanfei was definitely not referring to this thing.
"Footprints!" Meng Wu replied with a solemn face, "The body is in the middle of the coast, but there are no footprints around, whether it is the murderer's or the deceased himself, which proves a problem, this is a ......"
"It's impossible to commit a crime!" Zheng Hanfei and Meng Wu replied in unison, staring at the corpse from different directions, as if they wanted to find some clues and key evidence to break the impossible crime.
Ling Hua was silent for a while, as if he was digesting what Zheng Hanfei and Meng Wu said, and after that, he realized a problem, so he turned his head to look at Mo Gang and Li Szt, and asked: "By the way, I want to ask you a question, the song has just sounded, why can Meng Wu quickly find the location of the corpse, besides, the source of the mermaid song is not here." ”
"You're right!" Mo Gang replied, "We were able to find the body in advance because Liszt told us, and as for the details, you can listen to him slowly." ”
Hearing Mo Gang say this, Ling Hua naturally shifted his gaze to Li Szt, and even Zheng Hanfei, who was looking for clues on the side, moved his ears, it seemed that he also wanted to know what happened to this matter.
"At first, I just came here to investigate the explosion of the signal tower." Liszt pointed to the attack on the mountain behind him, and said slowly, "But I didn't expect a corpse lying on the beach, so I immediately told them about the situation, but not long after I came, I heard the song of the mermaid, and then my eyes flickered, and I saw Zheng Hanfei standing here, and you should know what happened after that." ”
"I heard Officer Liszt say that there was a corpse, and it was here, so I went back to look for you and Zheng Hanfei, but I didn't expect that as soon as I found you, the mermaid song sounded, but, fortunately, I also understood one thing, the murderer ......" Meng Wu glanced at Liszt, and then added.
"Surely familiar with our actions, that is, the murderer must be someone close to us." Zheng Hanfei put away the mobile phone that had already taken pictures of the crime scene, and then said in a enlightened voice, "And judging from the song of the mermaid, the murderer should be a person, but we haven't seen the deceased in this case, which surprised me a little, it seems that the murderer has another purpose for killing." Okay, let's take a look. ”
After speaking, without waiting for the reaction of the others, he walked directly to the corpse, leaving a line of shallow footprints on the beach, and then put on gloves and turned the corpse over, and an unfamiliar face appeared in his eyes.
"I know him." Mo Gang appeared behind Zheng Hanfei at some point, saw the face of the deceased, was slightly stunned, and said an extremely shocking clue, "He went to check on the explosion of the signal tower with me, Ling Hua, Zhongxian Village Chief, and a few young people yesterday, because he was very close to me, so I remember his face, Ling Hua, you should know him too, right?" ”
"Acquaintance!" Ling Hua nodded, the solemn look on his face never changed, "But how could it be him?" He doesn't seem to have anything to do with Jiang Duxing and Yu Haobu, right? If it weren't for the Mermaid Song, I wouldn't have been able to link his death to the previous murder. ”
There must be something in common! Zheng Hanfei flipped through his mobile phone, opened the photo album, and looked at the beach photos without footprints, a trace of doubt flashed in his cold eyes.
Now, the most important thing is to unlock the impossible crime......
At the same time, Nan Ruoxun and Wang Xiaomeng were sitting on the chairs in the living room, facing the mermaid calligraphy and painting hanging on the wall, and their minds kept splitting, reorganizing and analyzing the poems on the mermaid calligraphy and painting, but judging from the fact that they pouted in unison, they definitely didn't come up with anything.
"How?" The two women glanced at each other and asked in unison.
"You speak first!"
"No progress."
"What should I do?" Nan Ruoxun scratched her head in annoyance, sighed, the whole person was like a ball, without any spirit, "I think I'm really useless, in terms of the case, Sister Menghan can at least help Xiao Fei check the body, analyze, and even remind Xiao Fei from time to time, but I, in terms of reasoning, don't help Xiao Fei at all, and sometimes I don't help, I ......"
"Don't be discouraged!" Wang Xiaomeng encouraged, "At least we have eliminated a lot of possibilities for Zheng Hanfei and Xiaowu from Yu Haobu's analysis data, this is also a big step forward for them, if you keep being so negative, I think not only me, but even Zheng Hanfei will not want to see it." ”
"That's right, let's take a break and move on." After speaking, Nan Ruoxun took out a few packets of chocolates from her pocket, handed some to Wang Xiaomeng, and then ate a lot, but her eyes were still fixed on the information in her hand, it seemed that the rest she said was only for Wang Xiaomeng, not for herself and Wang Xiaomeng.
"Where did you buy this chocolate?" In order to divert Nan Ruoxun's attention, Wang Xiaomeng asked out loud, of course, this question was decided after careful consideration, because she clearly remembered that Nan Ruoxun didn't buy anything at all when she was wandering around the street, and as for what she brought, it was even more impossible, judging from the softness and hardness of the chocolate and the fact that it was not hot, but it was very stuffy, it was obvious that she had just bought it back.
"Huo Guojia gave it to me." Nan Ruoxun said vaguely, "Among them, only this girl is better, and she can still care about us, as for Niu Zhen, you look at her appearance, domineering, short-tempered, not a good person at first glance, I thought that Xiaofei and Mengwu were very likely to be angry with her." ”
"Your juice." Wang Xiaomeng wanted to say something, but saw Zhong Xian come out of the kitchen, handed them two glasses of juice, and listened to him say, "If you're thirsty, drink it." It's not enough, just go to the kitchen and get it, I'll send it to Xiao Ming and his friends first. ”
"Grandpa Zhongxian, when did you come back? I think you just went out, huh? Nan Ruoxun and Wang Xiaomeng said thank you one after another, and then thought of a question, so they asked, "Are you going to do something?" ”
"I just went buy some stuff for you, and juice is one of them." Zhong Xian pointed to the juice in the cups of the two women, and a kind smile still hung on his face, "You are all guests, I am sorry for you when this kind of thing happens, and you still have to help solve the case, so I can't worry about it, but you better remind Mo Gang and the others that the murderer is a mermaid, even if you catch it, it is useless, and in the end it can only lead to death." ”
