Chapter Ninety-Three: The Murderer
From a scientific point of view, the movement of corpses is not an isolated case, because the neurons, rigid muscles, and cells and tissues that remain after death will jointly produce a supernatural reaction, which will make the corpse create the illusion of similar behavior to a living person under a certain stimulus.
The same was true of Dr. Hu's first thought, but he was told that it was unlikely, because that reaction only occurred shortly after death and required external force or drug stimulation. Obviously, it has been two days since the female corpse died, and he was the only one at the scene, except for the light of the flashlight, there was no other stimulation, and there was also a white cloth, it was absolutely impossible for a supernatural reaction to occur suddenly, and even if a supernatural reaction occurred, it was impossible to be so rhythmic.
Ruling out the first possibility, his mind spun at a rapid pace, wondering if it was his own hallucination. In some special circumstances, especially in situations that are prone to psychological suggestion, hallucinations do not occur by chance.
He closed his eyes, pondered for a while, calmed himself, and when he opened his eyes again, sure enough, the female corpse was motionless, and her voice stopped abruptly inadvertently, and he breathed a sigh of relief, saying that he might really be wrong.
In order to test his idea, he mustered up the courage to lift the part of the white cloth covering the head of the female corpse, and for a moment the four eyes met, the female corpse stared at him with wide eyes, and the female corpse's mouth was opening in an exaggerated amplitude, distorting her face into an extremely terrifying appearance.
Dr. Hu could no longer contain his feelings, and the whole thing exploded, screaming hysterically and running out the door. As soon as he reached the door, the light of the morgue was turned on at the same time, and the old master who was in charge of the morgue appeared before him.
It turned out that when he came, he and the master happened to go in and out, and the master was also more conscientious, and when he found out that there was a power outage, he went to borrow the generator, which just happened to restore the power in the morgue.
No matter what caused this woman's terrible state, Dr. Hu could not explain it with a rigorous attitude, and the ridiculous statement that he was a high-ranking intellectual like him did not want to believe and understand.
Under the persuasion of the master, Dr. Hu regained his calm, but he was no longer willing to go back to the morgue to find out. He waited until the morning in a daze before he remembered to call Director Mao, in order to avoid causing too much criticism again, and in order to have a reason to convince himself, he tactfully interpreted what he saw that night as the resurrection of the female corpse.
Facts are facts, and even if they can be explained on the surface, they cannot completely convince themselves and others.
Long Yiming and the others arrived at the hospital's morgue before noon, and Dr. Hu had been waiting for a long time, when the two panda eyes betrayed his anxious feelings, and he also knew that this matter was beyond his understanding and ability, and only the police could handle it.
After inquiring about the situation in detail, Dr. Hu reluctantly entered the morgue again under the protection of Long Yiming and others.
There was not a single window in the mortuary, except for the light tube on the ceiling, which was not very well lit even during the day, but fortunately the atmosphere of fear eased by the popularity of the people present, but it was also very unusual.
Long Yiming and other supernatural people are not surprised by this kind of thing that cannot be explained by science, and they have dealt with no less than a hundred more bizarre incidents than this, so as soon as they entered the morgue, they walked directly to the female corpse, which was consistent with Dr. Hu's description, the white cloth was lifted by him, and the female corpse's expression was exaggerated, but it seemed to have another meaning.
Mo Wen stepped forward to check it, but there were no vital signs, and he felt that Dr. Hu was too worried.
"Does she have something to say?" Officer Xu said this coldly, which made everyone here gasp.
Director Mao motioned to Officer Xu not to talk nonsense, and hurriedly let him behind him.
Mo Wen nodded and said, "It's a little interesting, why do you feel this way?" ”
Seeing that the "chief" was interested in his opinion, Officer Xu stepped forward regardless of Director Mao's obstruction and replied: "I think that since the deceased is dead, it is absolutely impossible to be resurrected, and the cause of this special situation may be that the deceased is resentful and wants to sue us for something......
"Shut up......" Director Mao couldn't listen to it, and pulled back Officer Xu suddenly, his face was ugly.
Officer Xu suddenly understood why Director Mao was so angry, now it is not inside the police station, and some words cannot express his true thoughts in front of the chief, especially the ghosts and gods about feudal superstition. Thinking that as a people's policeman and a party member, if his opinions are disseminated, the impact will be quite bad, and he will be disciplined at least and expelled from public office at worst.
In this era of political and cultural abundance, everything you do and think is linked to politics, so Officer Xu realized that Long Yiming and the others in front of him were looking at him with an incredulous look at him at this time, making him feel like he was wearing shackles.
If they knew the true identities of Long Yiming and others, maybe Director Mao and Officer Xu wouldn't have to be so restrained. But for Long Yiming and others, Officer Xu's opinion is very surprising, a policeman can say opinions that ordinary people dare not say, which shows that his concept has not been so pedantic, or very flexible, as if it is really like what he said.
Long Yiming, Mo Wen and Mo Wu are all good at kung fu among the superpowers, and there is no Chang Butong, Qin Ling and others who will analyze things from the ground, at this moment, although they agree with what Police Officer Xu said, but for a while there is no plan for the next step.
At this time, there was some small agitation outside the morgue, and the sound should be that the master guarding the morgue was arguing with someone.
"This comrade, this is a morgue, outsiders can't come in, if you make such unreasonable trouble, I'm going to call the police." The old master tried his best to dissuade him.
"Why am I making trouble unreasonably, your case can't be solved, I'm kind enough to help, after tonight, I'm afraid the murderer won't be found anymore, if you don't let me in, then I'll go, don't regret it when the time comes......" The accent of the person who said this was a little strange, but he could still distinguish some familiarity.
Listening to this voice, Long Yiming and the others were almost certain that the person who came was the "friend" they met that night, Wu Santong, and thought that he had come at the right time.
Mo Wen explained to Director Mao and Officer Xu, and then asked Mo Wu to shout at the door, asking the master to invite Wu Santong to come in.
Wu Santong entered the morgue and immediately attracted everyone's attention. I saw that he was wearing a black mask and a navy blue felt velvet hat, revealing only two keen eyes, as if he would not let others see his true face.
Mo Wen asked: "Comrade Wu, why did you come here, what do you mean by what you said just now that you won't be able to find the murderer tonight?" ”
Wu Santong snorted, did not answer Mo Wen's question directly, but walked straight to the female corpse, covered its mouth with his left hand, covered its eyes with his right hand, and then slowly leaned towards its head.
