The charm taken from Lao Zhang's house and the charm on the sacrificial platform are exactly the same, and the results can be preliminarily identified as the same through preliminary identification of the naked handwriting. In other words, these two charms were drawn by the same person. Jiang Jun asked me how to determine who drew it, I thought about it, and led everyone into Xiong Wancheng's room.

The brick house was small, and the floor was full of scriptures and books about Qimen Dunjia. After Xiong Wancheng left, the bad-faced Taoist priest respected him and didn't touch the things in his room at all. However, when the police came at that time, they took away some evidence from Xiong Wancheng's room. I immediately searched for it in my room, and soon I found a handwritten copy from Xiong Wancheng.

I put the charm aside and immediately studied the rules of Xiong Wancheng's strokes, and Jiang Jun also knew some professional knowledge of handwriting identification, so he studied it with me. More than 10 minutes later, Jiang Jun and I discussed it, and we both came to the same conclusion on the appraisal results.

Although none of us are professional handwriting experts, the handwriting identification of this word is not too difficult, and the result must not be wrong. Jiang Jun said to me: "Professor Li, it seems that the yellow charm of Lao Zhang's family is really from Xiong Wancheng's hand. In other words, Zhang Lehui is even less likely to lie.

"Another person close to me is involved." I said with a frown. I always feel that the people around me have become mysterious one by one, and I don't know if this is a coincidence or someone deliberately. There won't be so many coincidences in the world, but if someone deliberately did it, then these invisible hands are too powerful, because this game of chess is not only big, but also centered on me, interlocking.

I really don't know who has the ability to do that.

Unable to figure it out, I decided not to think about it, I looked around and came out of Xiong Wancheng's room. I opened the brick houses one by one, and most of them were empty, but soon I found a room with similar furnishings to Xiong Wancheng. It is also densely covered with scriptures, and it is obvious that this should be the room of the rotten face Taoist.

However, as soon as the door opened, a strong smell of dust rushed towards him, and it seemed that there had been no one living here for some time. I walked in and touched the bed and table, and sure enough, my hands were covered in dust. I secretly screamed that it was not good, the rotten face Taoist priest may have left.

The rotten face Taoist priest is the only Taoist master of Tiemuguan, he is gone, Tiemuguan is not only empty, but also abandoned, no wonder we didn't see anyone go up the mountain to worship along the way. Before I went to Chongqing City, Shen Nuo had been staying in G City, and I asked her to keep an eye on the Rotten Face Taoist for me, at that time, the Bad Face Taoist had no chance to leave if he wanted to.

But later, when Shen Nuo went to Chongqing City, he directly resigned from the police position in G City, so the observation of the actions of the Bad-faced Taoist priest had already been put on hold. Jiang Jun asked me what to do, and I sighed and said that I could only continue to look in Tiemuguan now to see if I could find any clues.

As for finding the bad-faced Taoist, I must find a way to contact the police to provide some help, otherwise it will be impossible to find him with just a few of us. At my request, everyone started searching, and we searched very carefully, even going to go through every book in the room of the Rotten Face Taoist.

But the workload is too much, and it can't be done in a while. So, after Jiang Jun and Liu Jia looked through for a while, they went to the main hall to check, while Doctor Zhou and I continued to do this tedious work in the room of the rotten Taoist priest. Dr. Zhou didn't complain at all, he flipped through the book and asked me, "Professor Li, what case are you investigating?" ”

I thought about it, but I still didn't dare to tell Dr. Zhou everything, after all, he was just a doctor. Dr. Zhou also understood what I meant, he didn't blame me, but just sighed: "If every criminal police officer is like you, I am not afraid that Doha will have no whereabouts." ”

Dr. Zhou's words made me feel a little emotional, and I replied: "But there are some cases that the police will not investigate, and even if there is evidence and there is a chance to find out the truth, they still will not investigate." ”

Dr. Chow asked, "Why?" ”

I shook my head: "Sometimes I can't figure it out, if I have to give a reason, or I am afraid that some cases will cause panic in the society, or perhaps, the truth of some cases is linked to the interests of those high-level people, and even worse, to the whole country." ”

Dr. Zhou was at a loss: "A case, will there really be such serious consequences?" ”

"I don't know, maybe there is, maybe not." I replied: "But those people are rulers, and everything they do is for the sake of rule, even democracy, and for the sake of rule." Often the ones who really want fairness and justice are those at the lowest level of criminal police, who are fighting for their ideals, but a word from their superiors can change their behavior and even change their ideals. ”

Those who have power are not just and fair, and those who are righteous have no power, this is the sadness of the investigation system in which we live.

From the beginning of the 330 case to the serial murder case of the woman in red, the superiors decided not to investigate, even if Xu Tong said that there was actually a secret investigation, but the intensity of the investigation was also very small. As I spoke, I felt again, and at this moment, Jiang Jun's call interrupted my thoughts.

Jiang Jun called me very loudly in the main hall and asked me to come over, I immediately stood up and ran to the main hall, Dr. Zhou did not follow, but continued to look for strange clues. Jiang Jun and Liu Jia were behind a vicious Taoist statue, there was a big platform here, and I saw a tablet on it.

The tablets are still very new, and there are some sacrificial offerings on the side. There is no name on the tablet, only a name similar to the Taoist number, and it is obvious that this is a Taoist tablet. I was slightly stunned, this may be the tablet of the bad-faced Taoist priest. At this point, we can't stay any longer, and I have to go down the mountain as soon as possible to ask the villagers who live nearby.

The police investigated the Badface Taoist, but I didn't care about the Badface Taoist's name and original name, I only paid attention to whether he had strange behavior. Therefore, I have no way to determine whether this tablet is a bad-faced Taoist priest. Jiang Jun asked us to stay on the mountain, and he decided to go down the mountain quickly by himself, and after asking, he would come and tell us.

I agreed, and for the next hour, Liu Jia and I sat in the main hall, Liu Jia did not come to interrupt my thoughts, and Dr. Zhou continued to stay in the room of the Rotten Face Taoist priest without coming out. Finally, an hour later, Jiang Jun ran back sweating profusely.

Jiang Jun told me that the Taoist name was that of the bad-faced Taoist priest. The villagers told us that the rotten face Taoist priest went to the crane fairy more than a month ago. This is the original words of the villagers, the rotten face Taoist priest is a Taoist master, and the villagers respect him, so he calls his death "driving the crane immortal".

It is said that when the Rotten Face Taoist priest died, he sat in the main hall, and until the moment before his death, the Rotten Face Taoist priest was still meditating. On the same day, the villagers who came up the mountain to worship found the Rotten Face Taoist priest sitting, so they went over to call him, but with a gentle push, the Rotten Face Taoist priest fell to the ground.

The rotten-faced Taoist priest walked very peacefully, and he died of illness. These villagers said that more than a month before the death of the Rotten Face Taoist, everyone found that the Rotten Face Taoist often coughed, and the Rotten Face Taoist himself told everyone that his Yang Shou was coming to an end. I didn't expect the rotten-faced Taoist priest to be really accurate, and he really passed away.

On the day of the funeral for the Rotten Face Taoist priest, believers from many places came, from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, full of people, and the scene was very large. Jiang Jun said these words to me, many villagers knew that there would be no falsehood, and everyone also personally cremated the rotten face Taoist priest, and the grave was behind Tiemuguan.

I can't believe that this person has passed away. I suddenly found that the people related to the case were dying one by one, starting from Zhong Yudong, to Lao Zhang and Xiao Nan, to Zhu Li, and now, even Xiong Wancheng's classmate and the bad-faced Taoist priest are dead.

We decided to go to the grave of the Rotten Face Taoist, but at this moment, Dr. Zhou ran over with an envelope in his hand, and he said that the letter had been found in the room of the Rotten Face Taoist.

When I opened it, the letterhead was a name: Lin Daokai.

I was stunned, this name was exactly one of the eight people on the list.
