Chapter 19: The Banquet Interlude

Corpse change, Mu Tianyu subconsciously thought of this word, most of the descriptions on the Internet, there are often records of corpse transformation, the so-called corpse refers to the sudden resurrection of the dead body by some external factors, but the resurrected corpse has lost its humanity, just an unconscious walking corpse. Later, under the publicity of the media, experts in the relative field made a more vivid exposition on this. As early as the last century, there were cases in biological laboratories where they cut off the thighs of frogs, found out its nerves, stimulated them with electricity, and made a jumping reflex, which is common knowledge that any student knows at present. For example, on the night of thunder and lightning, the corpse will get up and walk, and in front of the mourning hall, the black cat will walk over the dead person, and they will be resurrected, which is actually caused by static electricity caused by the friction of the cat's claws.

"I was so scared that I didn't get a good night's rest, and the next morning, I called the people in the forensic department to ask about the situation, but they said everything was normal. I still suspect that something is wrong with me. Zhou Zhiming smiled awkwardly and continued: "People have lived for most of their lives, they haven't seen anything, and they are almost scared out of their minds, how did you say this illusion came about?" Zhou Zhiming looked at Mu Tianyu's serious face, the man in front of him gave him a sense of mystery, in short, he must not be simple.

"Are you a believer?"

"Believers?" Zhou Zhiming was a little surprised that the other party would ask himself like this, he shook his head and smiled: "No, I never believe in those, this has to lead by example, as a police officer, you can't have subjective awareness, this is the most basic element of your position." Rather, it was Xiaomeng's mother who went to the church at the end of the street every week. As he spoke, Zhou Zhiming also pulled out the jewelry he was wearing on his chest from the front of the collar of his suit, which was a processed silver product. Where did she take it from the church, saying that it could bless me safe, hey, if it really worked, I wouldn't ......" He sighed, but he had cancer, and he didn't know when he would suddenly collapse, he smiled: "It's okay, everything is fine." ”

Mu Tianyu took the wine in his hand, turned around and walked towards the back hall. "Then don't drink any more." In the distance, a standing statue of an angel caught his attention, just to the left of the back door, and two candles were lit around it.

"Oh, it was arranged by Xiaomeng's mother, and it was originally placed at home, but the banquet was held here tonight, so I brought it, I really don't know what she wants." Zhou Zhiming explained, looking at Mu Tianyu's back as he left, and walked towards the statue.

Mu Tianyu stared at the angel in front of him, the workmanship was fine, most of the material was plaster, and the folded wings were brushed with a layer of silver, this thing was sold for a lot of money from the church, but it did have a certain effect, but once it encountered a tricky matter, it had no ability to resist. He noticed that on the table, there was a concave object embedded in the left foot of the angel, also made of plaster, which contained a liquid, a transparent liquid, probably about two hundred milliliters. He took a closer look, then dipped his index finger in water and sniffed it in front of his nose. It turned out to be tribute wine, and he shook his head helplessly and smiled, guessing in his heart that maybe the angel would really be greedy for wine. Then he pulled a square towel from the empty table next to him and dipped it whole into the box of wine.

Zhou Meng, who was sitting at the back of the lobby, kept looking at the crowd in the front hall in a daze, ignoring her mother and Han Feng who were standing outside the screen next to her. "Master, who is that person? Did Xiaomeng mention it to you? Han Feng had never been so nervous, and now he had met a real opponent, especially since he didn't know the other party's background.

"Xiao Han, don't worry, this matter is not what you think, let alone what I am worried about, that person should be just Xiaomeng's ordinary friend, I have never met her father, and I have not heard her mention it." Chen Hong comforted her students, she knew that Han Feng, especially Han Feng's father, had a place in the military field. "Don't worry, you are the one who is my son-in-law."

"Thank you, thank you, Master." Han Feng was grateful, but then he discovered the source of his anger. "Master, look." He pointed to Mu Tianyu, who was gradually disappearing into the screen to block his vision, and went to the place where Zhou Meng rested.

Chen Hong took a deep breath, blushed his face, and said secretly in his heart, do you want to rob my daughter, with my consent? She said to Han Feng, "You go to the front hall first, and I'll handle this matter." ”

"Okay, okay, thank you, thank you." Han Feng nodded and turned to leave, although he was still relieved in his heart, he didn't panic too much, he knew the master's family very well. Although Zhou Meng is the head of the serious crime team and the highest operational commander of the Municipal Police Department, Zhou Zhiming is also a well-known figure in the entire police circle, but this family, the final decision-maker, in the final analysis, is Chen Hong, after all, her father is a high-ranking official in the political arena, this matter is rarely known to the outside world, and the media has not reported it.

"Hi you, why are you here." Although Zhou Meng was smiling, he couldn't hide his nervous words. "I, I thought, you're dining."

"I've already eaten it." Mu Tianyu walked in front of her, bent down directly, lifted her right leg up, lightly unbuttoned the high heels, and then carefully took them off, stroking her slender and smooth ankles, and could feel the evil power, which was constantly devouring her flesh and blood. "Does it hurt?" Mu Tianyu asked, he was engrossed in the black-brown mark, the evil qi had already penetrated into it, so she would fall weakly before.

"Yes, a little." Zhou Meng replied softly, his heart was pounding, this was the first time in his life that he was touched by a man's feet, and he was in close contact with the same person, twice.

"Maybe it will hurt a little bit next, can you bear it?" Mu Tianyu looked up at her messy eyes, and used holy water to wash the flesh that was burned by the evil qi, which was dozens of times more painful than the wound cut by the needle tip sewing, which was not something that ordinary people could bear, if they didn't howl in pain, it would be very rare. Zhou Meng also probably knew that the other party might want to treat her feet, although she didn't know what way Mu Yu would use, and she didn't know what was wrong with her, but looking at his determined eyes, she also nodded. Mu Tianyu took out a coin from his bag and threw it to Zhou Meng. "If it hurts, bite it, hold on for a while, and it's over." Zhou Meng had never seen such a coin, not only the pattern, but the material seemed to be a silver dollar from the last century, but it was not a silver dollar, and it looked even older.

Mu Tianyu covered the soaking square towel over the mark on her ankle, and in an instant, a sound of burning flesh by the flames came out, sneering...... Sneer...... Then, wisps of black smoke rose from her ankles and dissolved into nothingness in the night wind. Zhou Meng subconsciously felt intense pain, she almost screamed, the wooden chair she was sitting on also shook violently, creaking, she bit the coin tightly, her hands were clasped on the handlebars, even her nails were scratching the wood gurgling, and the sweat on her forehead instantly overflowed her cheeks. "Hold on a little longer." Mu Tianyu said in a deep voice, and then he took off the high heels of Zhou Meng's left foot, and repeated the same action quickly. Creak...... Creak...... The sound of the wooden chair shaking was intense, accompanied by her painful moans, but this sound could only be heard by Mu Tianyu beside her. As the black smoke cleared, her faint gasps were heard, and the swaying wooden chair returned to normal. "Alright, it's okay." Mu Tianyu took a long breath, and the tense heartstrings relaxed, he was also worried that the other party might not be able to endure it, but now it was finally over.

Zhou Meng's expression was weak, sweating profusely, and his pale skin looked like a seriously ill patient with a disease. Mu Tianyu handed over a tissue, but the other party's fragile eyes looked at him weakly and couldn't raise his hand. It seems that this kind of thing happens to ordinary people, it is very difficult, even if she is still an excellent police officer of the serious crime team, some psychics can't bear such pain. Mu Tianyu carefully wiped the sweat from her cheeks. The placket of her clothes was also soaked for more than half of it, and the sweat slid down to her chest, and she didn't pay attention to Mu Tianyu, only then did she realize that she was touching the sensitive parts of the other party, and quickly retracted her hand, and said in a slurp: "You, you're okay, try, deep, take a deep breath, and you'll be fine in a while." ”

Sure enough, as Mu Tianyu said, Zhou Meng woke up in the nightmare, her pale face blended into the blood, the ruddy luster appeared on her face again, and the instructions of the toes intertwined had been transmitted to the brain, she slowly stood up, barefoot, and said indifferently to the man in front of her: "Thank you." The gaze of the other party was so emotional, she had never been so nervous, and she had never had such a desire, she actually gradually stood on tiptoe, closed her eyes slightly, and her red lips exuded a seductive aftertaste.

"Ahem...... cough cough ......" Suddenly, a coughing sound came, Mu Tianyu and Zhou Meng looked towards the source of the sound at the same time, it was Chen Hong, expressionless, staring directly at the two.

"Hug ...... I'm sorry. Mu Tianyu stepped back, embarrassed, and he headed straight for the path that led to the front hall on the other side. Zhou Meng also came back to her senses, she glanced at her mother, and then sat on the wooden chair, bending over to put on her shoes.

Chen Hong was furious and strode over, she looked around, there was no other person, and no one could notice this. "Zhou Meng, you, what are you doing!" The low, angry words were not answered, and she still bent over and buckled her high heels. "Just now, if I hadn't seen it in time, I'm afraid you, you, you'd have kissed him!" Chen Hong took a step back and stretched out her hand to accuse her daughter, with contempt in her anger. "Okay, we used to be anxious about your personal problems, but you kept making excuses that you didn't have time, and now I found you a wishful husband, but you brought a strange man to the banquet, and ...... It's almost ...... Hey, you're ......."

"Mom." Zhou Meng got up and raised her head, she had an aggrieved expression, arranged her long skirt, put her hair behind her ears, and said solemnly: "This is my own business, don't worry about it." ”

"Your own business? Who is that man? Chen Hong sneered and stroked the Xuanjing jade bracelet on his wrist. Hmph, I don't care, I don't care who he is, in short, my future son-in-law, there is only one candidate, and that is Han Feng! Zhou Meng looked at his mother in amazement, unable to believe that these words came out of her mouth, and then, Chen Hong grabbed Zhou Meng's hand tightly and walked towards the lobby.

Outside the front hall, Mu Tianyu planned to leave, he had to rush to the forensic department, if it was really as Zhou Zhiming said, it was very likely that Yu Yan's corpse would change, although her soul was in the corpse, the resentment remaining in the corpse would mutate it. At this time, the middle-aged man who walked with him to the elevator entrance had known each other, especially the pair of white leather shoes and the collapsed heels.

"You, you are?" The middle-aged man seemed to recognize Mu Tianyu, and he was the first to speak: "I feel so familiar?" I seem to have seen it somewhere, and I seem to ......"

"Newspaper, copywriter." Mu Tianyu said with a smile.

"Oh, yes, yes, yes." The middle-aged man nodded and replied: "It's you, I remembered, I didn't expect you to ......" He looked at the other party, such an attractive man, which made him a little shy. "By the way, did you pass?"

"Pass? By what? Mu Tianyu didn't think about the topic.

"Didn't you say you were going to interview the copywriter?"

"Oh, yes." Mu Tianyu laughed heartily, clasped his hands with each other, and thanked each other. "Thank you so much, it's passed, thank you very much." Seeing that the diners were still in the majority, Mu Tianyu asked curiously, "Are you leaving?" Is the banquet over? ”

As soon as the words came out, the middle-aged man's face was gloomy, he pressed the elevator button, and sighed: "Hey, it's really unfortunate, I'm on duty today, and I have to report two hours in advance." ”

The two walked into the elevator together, and Mu Tianyu continued to ask, "Do you have to be on duty at night?" ”

"Not only in the evening, but also in the morning, I have to go two hours earlier, and I was going to play a little more tonight, listen to their discussions, and there will be an important happy event to announce later." The middle-aged police officer was very annoyed, he stomped his foot hard, the whole elevator shook a little, and he had no choice but to schedule his turn, which was really unfortunate.

Mu Tianyu smiled and shook his head, and suddenly he turned around and faced the middle-aged man. "Wait, you say, two hours in advance?" Something suddenly occurred to him and asked, "Where are you on duty?" ”

The middle-aged man hesitated a little, but still replied, "Rising tide guard, you don't know?" He guessed that the people of Tiandu City knew about this, could it be that he was an outsider. The Rhine Lake is high for a few days every month, and in order to prevent accidents, we have to go to the garrison in advance, and those spectators and photographers will always risk their lives to enter the security danger zone. ”

Ding, the elevator door opened, and the middle-aged man who had just stepped out turned around, looked at Mu Tianyu, who was still in a daze in the elevator, and asked suspiciously: "Hey, buddy, are you okay, buddy?" He stepped forward, blocked the closing elevator door, and patted the other man on the shoulder. You okay? ”

"I'm sorry, I'm fine, I just got a little distracted, okay, man, thank you so much." Mu Tianyu thanked him again, then left in a hurry, and turned back very apologetically: "I have something to do now, so I'll leave first, thank you." "Leaving the sluggish middle-aged detective completely unaware of what was going on.

Outside the Shengshi Restaurant, Mu Tianyu stopped a taxi. "Municipal Department of Forensic Medicine."
