Chapter 5: Splitting Up
"Wow, I didn't expect that Zheng Angong to be so disgusting, he actually had a habit of destroying corpses, and I got goosebumps all over my body when I thought about it." Back home, Zhang Chao took off his clothes and threw him on the sofa and sighed.
I took out a can of beer from the refrigerator and took a sip to myself: "Actually, there is nothing strange about it, Zheng Angong is the lowest morgue caretaker in the hospital, with the lowest salary, he has not begged a wife in his forties, and he has been with the corpse for many years, so it is inevitable that he will have some psychological problems." ”
Zhang Chao nodded, stretched out a hand and said, "Give me a cigarette, the kind of cigarette you gave me last time seems to be quite good, where did you buy it?" ”
I took out a pack of cigarettes from my pocket, threw it to Zhang Chao and said, "This is a good cigarette, don't waste it, you can't buy it." "I'm telling the truth, this kind of cigarette is what I changed in the exchange space, a ten-pack, it actually takes five days to survive, counting, it is more expensive than gold, and it is not addictive, harmless to the human body, the most important thing is that there is also the ability to refresh the mind and promote the operation of the brain, usually I am reluctant to smoke, only when I think about things or when I am anxious, I will smoke one.
Zhang Chao lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and exhaled the smoke before saying slowly: "Luo Xi, I really can't see through you." After you come to me, you live in the best hotel, which proves that you are not short of money, and your cigarettes, indeed as you said, this kind of cigarette, let alone buying, I just haven't heard of it, I actually went to the Internet secretly last night to check, this kind of cigarette is not nothing, but the latest project being developed by a scientific research institution in the United States, each cigarette is sold for tens of thousands of dollars, and it is priceless, even if the average person has money, they may not be able to buy it, but you take out the whole package, proving that you are very rich, And the identity is still very unusual, such a person will be entrusted by someone to help me, I asked myself how can He De, there will be such a person to help me, and your wisdom also impresses me, at least those geniuses boasted on TV are much more powerful. ”
I sat down on the couch, turned on the TV, watched the soap opera to myself, and said, "What?" Ready to break up with me? ”
Zhang Chao came over with a smile, spit out the smoke on my face, and said with a smile: "How is it possible, with you, I can solve the case and have good things to take, how can I break up with you?" I just want to say, in fact, you are not here for me, but for this case, is this case very involved? ”
Suddenly, in the smoke that Zhang Chao spit out of his mouth, I saw the woman again, this time, I calmed down a little, staring at the girl, the first time, she said to me that it was nosy, I had a hunch, this time, she still had something to say to me, sure enough, the girl's lips closed one by one, although there was no sound, but I still judged from the shape of the mouth: "Since you are in charge, you have to manage it to the end." ”
"Luo Xi, Luo Xi, what are you doing?" Zhang Chao held a hand, shook it in front of me, and said with a little curiosity, "Did you find anything else?" ”
"Huh?" I reacted at this time, shook my head, and said, "No, nothing to discover, Zhang Chao, I can only tell you that this case is indeed very involved, and the reason why I didn't tell you is for the sake of your life, I hope you can understand." ”
Zhang Chao opened his mouth a few times, but didn't make a sound, and finally sighed helplessly: "You're right, ignorance is a blessing, I won't ask so much, by the way, now that Mr. Tang's body is lost, reality seems to be broken, what should we do next?" ”
I smiled and shook my head: "It's not completely clueless, do you remember what the female ghost said?" ”
Zhang Chao nodded: "I haven't gotten snow yet, and the ghost shaves my head in the middle of the night, what's wrong?" ”
I looked at him and said a little speechlessly: "You go and check, in the past 30 years, are there any sedimentary cases that have not been solved?" ”
Zhang Chao opened his mouth, stared at me and said: "No, although in recent years, due to the development of science and technology, our case detection rate has reached more than 70 percent, but in the past, the detection rate of cases was generally about 40 to 50 percent, and in 30 years, I am afraid that there are thousands of cases in total. And, how do you know that it's nearly thirty years, not forty years, fifty years? "In fact, the words of the female ghost have been said very clearly, she will kill people if she has grievances and has not been appealed, but Zhang Chao just doesn't understand, why can I be sure that the unjust case of the female ghost must have happened in the past 30 years.
I took out the deceased's file from the drawer of the coffee table and said, "Can you use your brain, let me ask you, I saw a female ghost in Zheng Angong last night, why didn't the female ghost kill him?" ”
Zhang Chao was stunned and hesitated for a long time before shaking his head embarrassedly.
I opened the file, took out a dossier and said: "This proves that female ghosts do not kill people in chaos, and judging from the time and method of death of the victims, female ghosts kill people in an orderly and orderly manner, which also proves that these dead people are related to female ghosts during their lifetimes." "After that, I handed the case file that I took out to Zhang Chao.
The case was the fourth deceased, Zhao Yongcai, 30 years old. Looking at the case file, Zhang Chao's eyes lit up, nodded and said: "Yes, the youngest deceased here is this Zhao Yongcai, if, as you said, these deceased people are all related to the female ghost before her death, then just check the youngest deceased, there is really you." ”
I smiled and glanced at him: "If the following conditions are determined, then it should not be difficult to find out the case of the female ghost, first, this case happened within thirty years, and second, this case and these five dead people are more or less related. At this point, I paused before continuing, "Third, the day the girl died, it was probably foggy. ”
"Huh?" Zhang Chao looked at me with some confusion.
I gritted my teeth before I said, "Say it, you don't have to be afraid, I've seen that female ghost twice, and it's all on you." ”
This time, Zhang Chao jumped up directly from the sofa and touched his whole body, before he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Luo Xi, don't talk nonsense, people will be scared to death." ”
I smiled wryly and shook my head: "Zhang Chao, do you think I'm joking?" The first time I saw that female ghost, in a real restaurant, when your face was blocked by the heat of the steak, the second time I saw her, it was just now, when the smoke you exhaled blocked your face, the female ghost, it seems that only in places where there is smoke, so I judged that the day she died was foggy weather. ”
Zhang Chao calmed down slightly and sat down again: "Luo Xi, why does it have to be foggy weather?" Can't she die in other foggy conditions? For example, the sea of fire, for example, those who are frozen to death in a very cold place, and for example, ......"
"Wait," I interrupted Zhang Chao's words and said with some excitement, "Zhang Chao, the ice storage, is it possible to catch fire?" ”
Zhang Chao thought for a long time before he smiled embarrassedly and said, "You wait, I'll ask Jiaxin." With that, he took out the phone in his pocket and dialed a number: "Hey, Jiaxin?" I'm not bothering you. Speaking of this, Zhang Chao turned his head and looked at me awkwardly. Cai continued: "I'm asking you something about the case, well, yes, I want to ask if the ice storage will burn?" ”
Then, Zhang Chao hung up the phone for a long time, turned to me and said: "There is indeed burning ice, which we call combustible ice, which is condensed by some combustible gases such as methane and water, generally in the deep sea with low temperature or in the permafrost layer in the strata. This solid, not only is the temperature extremely low, but it is also very still, Jiaxin said, seven years ago, there was a warehouse of combustible ice in Hong Kong, but then a fire broke out. ”
I clapped my hands violently: "That's it, you find that case file for me." ”
This time, Zhang Chao didn't ask any questions, stood up and said, "Okay, what about you?" ”
I thought for a while and said: "You go to find the case file from 7 years ago, and after sending a trustworthy police officer to come to me, I am still going to see Tang Lingli again, and now that her father's body is missing, I want to go and see how she reacts." ”
Zhang Chao nodded and dialed a number again: "Jianxiong, come to my house, well, yes, I have a distinguished guest at home, well, remember, you must listen to him, well, good." After hanging up the phone, Zhang Chao said to me: "One of my subordinates has arrived, you wait a minute, I will go to the case file first." With that, he hurried out.
Hair, the female ghost I saw was a beautiful long hair, but why did she shave all the victim's hair, there is only one answer, that is, when she died, she lost a beautiful hair, what can make a girl lose her hair when she dies, there is only one answer, it is fire. And this ghost would appear in the heat of the steak as well as in the cold air of the morgue, so I conclude that she died in a very cold and extremely hot condition. Combustible Ice Warehouse, I hope you're the clue we're looking for. (To be continued.) )
