Chapter 607: The Same Coffin
Jiang Jun's words exploded in my head, and I stood up straight with the removed key lock in my hand. I was so close to the coffin that I couldn't see its outline clearly, so I took a few steps back, and in the dim light on the first floor of the clinic, I saw the whole coffin.
The first time I saw this coffin, it was not yet dawn, and I was so tired that I didn't look at it too closely. At a glance, I already felt that this coffin was very familiar, but helplessly, I deliberately thought about it, but I couldn't remember where I had seen this coffin.
Like the first time I saw this coffin, the coffin was already a little worn, and the coffin lid was remodeled, and the coffin lid could not be locked very firmly with a key lock. At this moment, the lid of the coffin was placed on the ground on one side, and the coffin was full of treasures under the light.
When Jiang Jun said this, I carefully observed the outline of the coffin. Sure enough, the shape and color of this coffin are almost exactly the same as the coffin where Du Lei committed suicide and lay down. The shape and color of the coffin in each place will be different because of the differences in customs and culture.
But much the same, the coffins will not be much different. The coffin where Du Lei was lying at the beginning was actually not much different from other coffins, but some details were very unique. The coffin was made from a coffin shop in the city of L.
I'm still very impressed with that coffin shop. Coffin making is a handicraft work, and the owner of the coffin shop inherits from his ancestors and has his own unique craftsmanship. The owner of the coffin shop would create coffins of different sizes according to the height and shape of the deceased, and it was said that the deceased would have a comfortable place to live after death.
This is the biggest feature of the coffin shop, in addition, the coffin created by the boss is indeed of fine wood, and the corners and corners are very exquisite. It was through some very detailed identification that I confirmed what Jiang Jun said: This coffin is very likely to be the same as the coffin where Du Lei was lying at the beginning.
I rubbed my head, a little regretful that I didn't even remember it now. I was very impressed by the coffin on which Du Lei was lying, according to the boss, before Du Lei committed suicide, he personally went to the coffin shop to ask the boss to tailor a coffin for himself, and after that, Du Lei lay in the coffin, swallowed sleeping pills, and died in Xu Yi's home.
I have never understood Du Lei's intention to do this, but now, the truth seems to be slowly emerging. There is a problem with the coffin, there is also a problem with Xu Yi, Du Lei, who was lying in a strange coffin and died in the strange Xu Yi's house, also has a problem! When the truth is about to come out, I feel like I have caught a thread in the miscellaneous threads, as long as I pull hard, all the clues will become wide.
I took a few steps back and sat in the wheelchair behind me. I heard someone calling me, it was other criminal police, and I didn't have the heart to listen to what they said to me, I only knew that later, Jiang Jun asked everyone to go out, and there were only me and Jiang Jun in the huge clinic hall, and the coffin lying in the middle of the hall.
"Professor Li." Jiang Jun called me: "You say, could it be that Du Lei wants to use his death to tell you something?" ”
At the mention of Du Lei, my eyes were sour again. The one who accompanied me through the prosperous years, except for Xu Yi, was Du Lei. I have deep feelings for Du Lei, and the fact that he died is still like a nail, nailed deep into my heart, and when I touch it, my heart hurts like blood.
I sighed, "Perhaps, but he died, definitely not just for this reason." "I still remember every word Du Lei once said to me, his desire for justice and life is more than ordinary people. If it was just to get my attention, Du Lei would not use such a way at all.
I can imagine Du Lei's desperate appearance before he died, unless there is really a hurdle that cannot be crossed, Du Lei will not die easily. It is true that he died in Xu Yi's house in that way, and it may have hinted at some information, but there must have been other reasons that I don't know.
My head hurt again, I looked at the coffin, and all of a sudden, all the treasures in the coffin were gone, and I saw Du Lei lying in the coffin. His eyes were tightly closed, exactly the same as when he died, and he still held three notes in his hands, and the few strokes on those three notes were the only and last affection he left to this world.
He said sorry to me and Xu Yi, and said I love you to Meng Ting. These people are now far away from me, and two words suddenly appear in my mind: fate. I don't know why I have such a strange thought, I suddenly feel that Du Lei died because of fate, as if he had already been decided to live and die.
When Meng Ting and You Lu were hospitalized, I learned about Du Lei's life experience from Meng Ting, and Du Lei never mentioned those words to me. Du Lei followed his mother's surname, Du Lei was ridiculed for not having a father since he was a child, his mother was very good to him, and Du Lei was also very sensible.
When Du Lei was ten years old, his father in a straight suit appeared, but after meeting his mother in a hurry, Du Lei's father left ruthlessly. That night, Du Lei's mother committed suicide and died, and she died by Du Lei's side. After that, Du Lei went to the orphanage, and later through the investigation, the orphanage that Du Lei went to was Dean Luo's orphanage.
At that time, Dean Luo had not yet adopted Luo Xi, and the orphanage had not yet been relocated to City B. After being admitted to the police academy in City B, Du Lei often went to Dean Luo's orphanage, and took Luo Xi out to secretly teach him marksmanship.
Luo Xi is likely to be a mysterious man.
These complex relationships between characters are scurrying around in my head, and each person's life experience and what each person does seem to be independent, but there are many inexplicable connections between these independent individuals. I have a hunch that as long as I can sort out the relationship between these characters, most of the case may be solved.
"Professor Li, what should I do, is there a problem with the coffin shop owner?" Jiang Jun asked me.
I shook my head, "I don't know, but someone has to look it up." "I looked at my watch, it wasn't too late, I didn't have a particularly familiar police officer in L City, relatively speaking, Guangdong City was relatively close to L City, so I asked Jiang Jun to call Xie Jing in his name, and asked Xie Jing to find a way to contact the police in L City to investigate the coffin shop for me.
Jiang Jun immediately called Xie Jing, and soon, Jiang Jun nodded to me, saying that we just need to wait for news.
I looked back at the key lock that had been removed from my hand, which had obviously been removed from some cabinets and drawers. At first, we speculated that Sun Xiang's key had something to do with the abandoned factory, so Jiang Jun and I went to the dark and damp abandoned factory and spent most of the day rummaging through all the abandoned cabinets inside.
The key lock on it was all ripped off, and the key lock in my hand was probably removed from the cabinet in the abandoned factory. In order to verify, I took out the set of keys left by Sun Xiang. Before, I hadn't paid attention, but when I looked at the rusty keys, my surprise rose again.
I counted the keys, and there were eight keys in total. I don't know if it's a coincidence, the number eight has occupied my entire brain at the moment, because the list left by Wang Xin happens to be eight people. I thought to myself, could this be a coincidence?
A very bold speculation suddenly appeared in my mind: eight keys correspond to eight coffins, and each coffin corresponds to the eight people on the list.
This is not only randomly deduced by the coincidence of the number eight, I found my father's carving knife in the coffin, and the name Li Yiran happened to be on the list, so I dare to speculate that the coffin and the name on the list also correspond.
The key lock was pried off the coffin by the five people at the beginning, and at this moment they appeared inside the coffin, probably because they threw the key lock into the coffin with a casual action.
