That night, the workers worked overtime as always, and by eight o'clock, the city of Chongqing was thundering and raining heavily. It was still hot that afternoon, and no one expected it to change so suddenly. After the heavy rain, everyone took refuge on the first floor of the building to avoid the rain.

The heavy rain lasted for two hours, and those who brought umbrellas went back first, and those who did not bring umbrellas waited for the rain to light down before leaving. For the workers on the construction site, the body is the capital, although everyone is strong, but they don't want to be infected with any disease because of a heavy rain, affecting the work.

The heavy rain swept away the heat in the construction site, and at about ten o'clock in the evening, the temperature plummeted, and everyone wore short sleeves and felt cold. One of the workers had been holding back his urine for a long time, and finally, he couldn't stand it anymore, so he went to the back of the building to relieve himself.

After he finished untying his hand, he was about to turn around and leave, when he was faced by a cold wind, and it was very dark and thundering, so the construction party cut off all the electricity in the construction site. The moment he turned around, a lightning bolt pierced the rainy night, and the surroundings were bright, and he caught a glimpse of a figure standing in the rain.

The worker described the scene of that night to Shen Cheng and me, and his words were strongly subjective. I didn't ignore the environment he talked about, because in that environment, people are likely to have visual deviations and become psychologically tense.

Even if he did see something if it wasn't affected by the environment, it could be that the murderer deliberately used that environment to create terror.

"What do you see?" Shen Cheng raised the corners of his mouth, his face was full of disdain, I could see that Shen Cheng didn't believe in the ghosts and gods at all.

The worker hesitated, and finally shook his head and said that he didn't see clearly, only that there seemed to be a person standing in the heavy rain, but then he immediately changed it: "It seems to be two people." ”

Shen Cheng frowned: "Is it one person or two people?" ”

The worker still shook his head: "I don't see clearly." ”

Me: "I don't see clearly, why are you afraid?" ”

Worker: "Because in the next second, he's gone!" The workers' faces were filled with horror.

When he noticed that he couldn't tell whether it was one person or two people, he screamed, and everyone gathered around him and asked him what was wrong. After learning the details, the daring workers looked around, and there was no one else on the site except them.

Everyone said that the worker was too tired and hallucinating. The worker even thought so, and no one took it to heart.

But since that night, there have been people who claim to have seen unclean things on the construction site. The workers present should all be in harmony, and everyone's rhetoric is highly consistent: it is impossible to tell whether it is one person or two people.

I immediately found common ground in their rhetoric.

Everyone saw the figure at their convenience or when they were alone, and no one ever saw it at the same time. And the time to see that thing is at night, and the location is always in a corner with weak or no lights. I counted that more than two-thirds of the people present saw that it was a rainy day with lightning and thunder.

Under questioning, there were still many workers who had been frightened by that thing and had not yet come to the police station, so Shen Cheng immediately asked people to notify all the workers who had worked on the construction site to come to the police station.

In the alternating seasons of summer and autumn, there are many thunderstorms in Chongqing, which can explain why most people see that thing on a rainy day with lightning and thunder, but what can't be explained is why everyone can't tell whether the figure is one person or two people.

"What about you?" Shen Cheng pointed to the fat man, the person in charge of the construction party, and asked.

The fat man claimed that he had also seen it with his own eyes, and compared with other workers who were five big and three coarse, the fat man had to talk much more decently, and it could be seen that his cultural level was not low.

"I've seen it twice!" The fat man responded immediately.

The fat man told us that he usually sends people to supervise everyone's construction, and he himself does not go to the construction site very often. But rumors that the construction site is haunted are getting worse, and the workers are putting some pressure on him. In desperation, he went to the construction site in person, and at night, he took the workers to inspect the entire construction site.

That night, it suddenly rained again in the whole city of Chongqing, and after the inspection, everyone found nothing. He was about to leave after reassuring everyone, but before he could get out of the construction site, a lightning bolt lit up, and finally, he saw the thing with his own eyes. The thing stood far away, and after the lightning flashed, the thing disappeared from his vision.

The fat man called all the workers in fright, and everyone once again had the courage to inspect the construction site, and again, everyone found nothing. From that time on, the fat man also believed the rumors that the construction site was haunted, and the next day, the fat man invited several Taoist priests to the factory to exorcise ghosts.

Several Taoist priests babbled about the whole day's ritual, which alarmed the nearby residents, and rumors of the haunting of the construction site reached the ears of the residents. After that, the inhabitants no longer dared to pass by at night.

The fat man spent a lot of money to do a ritual, and after the ritual, the workers enjoyed peace of mind for a few days, and no one found it anymore for those days. But just when the fat man came to inspect the construction site and delivered supper to the workers, he saw it again.

The fat man's expression was abnormal, as if he was telling a ghost story.

It was eight o'clock in the evening, the workers were getting ready to leave work, and there was no rain that day. He took the flashlight to the corner to relieve his hands, the light of the flashlight swept a figure, he was so frightened that he threw the flashlight on the ground on the spot, and when he picked up the flashlight, the figure was gone.

"It seems that someone is taking advantage of the dark or rainy environment of the construction site to deliberately scare people." Shen Cheng turned his head to me and said.

I nodded: "Nine times out of ten, it has something to do with the case." ”

The fat man suddenly interjected: "Mr. Policeman, that's really a ghost, when I saw it for the second time, I still couldn't tell if it was one person or two people!" ”

The fat man's words made me and Shen Cheng fall into deep thought, which was indeed a doubt. One person can be wrong, but if everyone says so, it's no longer a lie. After thinking about it for a while, I still couldn't figure out what kind of trick the other party used to make so many people unable to tell whether it was one person or two people.

After a while, the other workers also arrived at the police station, and by this time, it was already dark, and everyone said the same as before. After asking for an alibi, Shen Cheng and I ruled out the possibility that these people had committed the crime. couldn't ask anything, Shen Chengfang and everyone left.

When he and Shen Cheng left the office, the preliminary autopsy report had already come out.

Shen Cheng and I each took a copy of the autopsy report in our hands and quickly flipped through it.

The time of death has been determined, no more than twenty-four hours, and it is estimated that it will be about ten o'clock last night. The cause of death is also the same as what we see on the surface, he was smashed in the head by a boulder and died on the spot.

There were not many new injuries on the body, only some abrasions on the neck and chest, and a few broken ribs, which were determined by the forensic doctor to be caused by the weight of the large stone continuing to act on the body after the deceased fell after the large stone hit the head.

With the forensic determination, we can be sure that the loud noise that the inhabitants heard at ten o'clock was the sound of a large stone falling from the thirteenth floor.

Shen Cheng and I flipped all the way to the last page of the autopsy report, where the examiner made a strange-looking record on the autopsy report.

The deceased found a lot of red hundred-dollar bills in his pocket, dozens of them in total. The deceased's pocket is not deep, and when a person goes out at night, he generally does not carry so much cash, and even if he does, he will put it in his wallet or bag, rather than stuffing it in such a shallow pocket.

This may be in the past, but that's not the weird thing.

Rather, these hundred-dollar bills were very messily stuffed into the trouser pockets, and the hundred-dollar bills were old and new, but what was common was that they were full of wrinkles, and it was obvious that they were about to be crumpled together.

Judging from the deceased's simple clothing, his family background is not good. And this kind of person, with so much money, should be more careful, instead of casually stuffing money into his pocket and causing wrinkles.
