All Chapters_Chapter 19: The Inquisitor!
My first reaction in the haze was that Du Xiaoworm had an accident, and sat up in a panic, this dark room couldn't see five fingers, I wanted to touch the flashlight while reaching out with my hand, and asked tentatively: "Sister Du...... Are you okay? ”
"It's okay......" Du Xiaoworm's voice sounded at the same time, my hand grasped something unusually soft, what is this? I pinched it, and then I was slapped in the face, and it hurt so much!
When I realized what I was grabbing, I immediately rolled out of the straw mat, my heart was finished, and she was so angry that Du Xiaoworm had to dissect me alive, and I begged my grandfather to tell my grandmother and said, "Sister Du...... I didn't mean to, it's so dark, I'm also worried about you, I just want to take a flashlight. Anyway, what is your name so good? ”
"Shhh Du Xiaoworm smashed the pillow on my head, and she whispered: "This account will be calculated tomorrow when I go back, I didn't shout it just now, it came from outside." ”
"Ah......h
I subconsciously looked at the wooden door, the wind and rain were still so loud, I wondered, "Why did you only call for a while?" It seems to have happened right in front of the door, and it was miserable. ”
Du Xiaoworm stood up, she pressed her mobile phone, leaned to the crack in the door by the faint light, and observed for a while, she put her hand on the doorknob, hesitating. When I was about to get up, she let go and returned to the straw mat, "Lie down quickly, and when nothing happens, because the old man of the grave said that no matter what happens, don't ask about it, otherwise we will go out of this door, and our life and death will have nothing to do with him." ”
"What do you see?" I lay on the ground on the edge of the mat, curious.
Du Xiaoworm stretched her neck sharply and leaned in my ear, and she said in a hoarse voice: "A woman, fainted more than ten meters in front of the door, washed by the rain. ”
My hair stood on end, and my chest rose and fell violently, "I was scared to death by you......"
"Huh." Du Xiaoworm's eyes were extremely resentful.
I was excited, thinking that I would be miserable when I returned to the police station tomorrow, so I changed the subject and said, "Will that woman die?" ”
"If you don't die, you won't die, maybe you will kill us on a rainy night." Du Xiaoworm guessed: "The current situation is mostly related to the old man guarding the tomb...... I didn't sleep before because I was worried about what was going to happen, but now I can sleep peacefully. As for you...... I think you get the idea. ”
After such a toss, I couldn't sleep at all, and I didn't dare to get on the mat, so I simply moved a bench, and I sat and played with my mobile phone.
After a few hours, I finally couldn't stay up anymore and fell asleep on my knees.
Unconsciously, I felt someone pat me on the head, and I raised my head slightly and opened my eyes, and my frightened soul was about to go out of my body.
In front of the flickering candlelight, there was an indifferent old face......
I realized that this was the old man guarding the tomb, and even patted my heart and said, "Old man, when did you come in, there was no movement at all." ”
He did seem to float in.
"It's the fifth watch, I'll come back and burn incense...... Hehe. The old man who guarded the tomb put down the candle, came to the statue of Hades, took out matches and incense, lit them and inserted the incense burner, and he said, "Hades told you to die for the third watch, and I dare to keep you until the fifth watch." ”
I was stunned for a long time, until the old man guarding the tomb left the door, I was still thinking about his sentence, looked at the time on my mobile phone, it is now half past four, which is the so-called fifth watch, and the woman's screaming happened at twelve o'clock, in the third watch, so the old man guarding the tomb is like saying that I and Du Xiaoworm have a meaning.
The old man guarding the tomb was too weird, he invited a prince of Yama to burn incense to worship, as if he grabbed the power of life and death with the other party and then apologized.
I closed the wooden door and looked outside, the place Du Xiaoworm said was empty, maybe the woman had been moved. I calmed my heart and went back to the bench to take a nap.
……
At seven o'clock, the rain stopped shortly after the sun spread across the earth.
The old man guarding the tomb came back, and he called me and Du Xiaoworm up, "Let's go, the old man will send you down Honghua Mountain." ”
"Thank you, old man, for your hospitality." Du Xiaoworm tidied up his clothes, and we walked out of the room together. When I passed the ten meters, I looked at the ground with some footprints that had been washed away by the rain, and indeed there were several groups of women, and there were pits on the ground that she had pressed, and they were full of water.
Suddenly, the corners of my eyes twitched, and I noticed three fingers floating in the water!
Du Xiaoworm also saw it, she slowed down, and when the old man guarding the tomb passed, she grabbed these three fingers and stuffed them into her pocket at a speed that covered her ears and thunder, and followed us casually.
The old man guarding the tomb noticed it but didn't care, on the way I sent a message to Xu Rui, saying it, asking him and the sniper to start arming at the gate of the cemetery, after all, the old man guarding the tomb only promised to protect the two of us from Honghua Mountain, so he would not interfere in the future.
It took us half an hour to reach the bottom of the mountain.
Du Xiaoworm and I wanted to thank the old man who guarded the tomb, but he stayed too much for a second, so he turned his head and left, and the crisp sound of the bell became weaker and weaker.
"At this time, there is no car, and we can't contact the boss, so let's go and try. Because of the intervention of the old man guarding the tomb and the incident in the middle of the night, I don't think there is much hope that the other party will take the bait. Du Xiaoworm said, the two of us walked side by side, and it was calm when we walked about 200 meters along the cement road.
After a while, Xu Rui and a few skilled combatants and three snipers appeared in front of us in a car, he pushed the car door and said: "Close, there is no movement around, Jing Zhen should have given up, there are still five days left, if Jing Zhen and his sister keep in touch, he is very likely to surface for a week, so we will focus on the line of the Jing family." ”
We got in the car, Du Xiaoworm asked Lao Hei if he had any gains, Xu Rui shook his head, it's right to think about it, Jing Zhen was busy tossing my suspected No. 7 target yesterday, and Lao Hei will definitely not be able to guard the other party's appearance.
"Which house or hotel will I stay in next?" I asked.
"All of them live in the police station."
Xu Rui said decisively: "Jing Zhen's means are much stronger than I imagined, yesterday he also occupied the right time and place, thanks to the old man's shot, otherwise not only will you not be able to catch the fish, but you will also be lost." ”
"I picked up three fingers, which belonged to the left hand, and it was suspected that they came from the woman who screamed outside the old man's room last night." Du Xiaoworm took out the severed fingers in her pocket, she put them in the plastic bag and looked at them, "Qi Gen is a one-size-fits-all, this knife technique is so precise that the woman didn't have time to shrink her hand and clench her fist to avoid it." ”
I pondered, "Why only cut out three?" There are no index fingers or thumbs in and near the puddle. ”
"There are only three possibilities." Xu Rui pinched a severed finger and said, "First, the woman has three left hands, and none of them are cut; second, cut off and accidentally stepped into the mud; The third is a bit powerful, the person who did it was merciful, and only wanted to cut off his three fingers as a warning, leaving two fingers for her to use, so that the hand would not be completely abolished. ”
"......" I said without believing in evil, "such a swift knife can really be contained." ”
"Closing the momentum in time, Lao Hei can do it occasionally, but very rarely." Xu Rui said with a smile: "The guardians of that old man are indeed powerful. ”
Du Xiaoworm and I looked at each other and didn't ask, knowing that it was not the right time, and waiting to make sure that we would not be monitored before we could communicate about it.
The tragedy began.
Back at the police station, the first thing Du Xiaoworm did was to take me to a detention room, and she brought a whip, "Which hand." ”
"What hand?" I pretended to be stupid.
Du Xiaoworm's face quietly swelled up with a touch of ruddy, but it quickly disappeared, she whipped the back of my hand, and I jumped three feet high in pain, and after rubbing it, a red line swollen.
I accidentally took advantage of her, and I didn't have to protest.
I was so frightened by the contrast of the cold forensic doctor's transformation that she left, locked me in the cell and said, "Hold you for five hours." ”
Xu Rui sneakily brought me a bowl of rice, "Xiaochen, why did you provoke her?" ”
"It's nothing...... "I'm really dumb and eat coptis."
Xu Rui didn't ask, he waited for me to finish eating, and said that he applied to the Ninth Bureau for me to be qualified to follow the group, and I have become a supernumerary member, not only that, but there is also a real police card, which will be entered into the system, but in addition to proving my identity, I have no authority to mobilize local police forces. And the gun license and standard equipment will be approved in half a month, and he will pull me to practice guns when he is free.
Xu Rui applied so much, he must have paid a lot, and I have no trace of mustard left for him, and I recognize him from the bottom of my heart as my boss.
After five hours, Du Xiaoworm coldly released me, and I came to the temporary dormitory, where there were two beds, one for Xu Rui.
There was no mission on this day, and it flew by quickly, and it was evening.
Xu Rui called Du Xiaoworm to the dormitory, he closed the door and locked it, made a silent gesture, then took out a pen and paper, and quickly wrote a few lines, "The old man who guards the tomb in Honghua Mountain is a criminal before the founding of the People's Republic of China, but he only looks like he is sixty or seventy, but he is now in his nineties, nicknamed the judge!" ”
Nineties?
I was amazed that the old man guarding the tomb was quick with his hands and feet, and his speech was clear, not at all. Known as the Inquisitor, it is no wonder that he worships the idol of Hades.
Xu Rui continued: "In September of the 49th year, because of the national law, he stopped. It is said that he has killed countless people before, and the dead are of all kinds, but most of them are young people, so they also have a lot of credit, but 90% of the dead are not dead. And after he stopped, he took the initiative to come to Honghua Mountain to guard the tomb to atone for the souls of his subordinates. ”
"What does grave guarding have to do with atonement?" Du Xiaoworm picked up another pen and wrote.
"The fourth area of the Red Flower Mountain Cemetery, maybe you have heard of it, do you know why it has been closed to the public?" Xu Rui sighed and lit a cigarette, and he shook his hand and wrote a secret story that shocked Du Xiaoworm and me......
