Chapter Fifty-Seven: Returning

Vice Principal He looked at me with a look of surprise, his eyes widened, his mouth opened, and he blew his beard and said, "Nonsense! ”

Hei and I looked at each other and didn't speak.

"Who told you there were corpses in this lake?!" Vice Principal He looked at me with a serious expression and a solemn gaze.

There have been four homicides in the police academy this semester, and the murderer has not been brought to justice, and the school leaders are not having a good time, which is a predictable thing.

So when I heard me say that there was a corpse in the lake, Vice Principal He's expression was so solemn, and I could understand it very well. But I don't know how to answer his question, I can't say that the ghost told me, right?

Seeing that we were silent, Vice Principal He's face softened a lot, and he said to the salvage captain: "Let your people come up, there are no corpses in this lake, you leave here for me!" ”

The salvage captain spread his hands and looked at me innocently. When Vice President He saw that the salvage team was not moving, his eyes with heavy pressure shot at me.

Xiao Hei looked at me silently and stood silently behind me.

"Teacher He, there is really a corpse in this lake, please believe me." I said in a sincere tone, "Otherwise, I wouldn't have spent a lot of money to hire them to salvage, and I don't have a lot of money." ”

Vice Principal He looked around, and the students gathered more and more, and they had already surrounded the entire Liuhu Lake. His face became ugly, and he shouted: "Even if there is a body in the lake, the school should ask someone from the police to salvage it. Get me away! Otherwise, I'll call the security guards! ”

At this time, a salvage team member in the lake suddenly cheered: "Found it!" ”

The salvage captain's face was happy, and the surrounding students were also talking, but Vice Principal He's face was as ugly as it was.

The salvage team fished out a rotting human skeleton with only bones left. The salvage team put this inhumanoid skeleton on the shore, and a foul smell with * breath immediately came to the face, and the students around covered their noses and left, I sighed in my heart, it seems that Hu Xiaolan is right, her boyfriend is indeed in the willow lake.

I pinched my nose and walked over to the bones, because of the long immersion in the water, all the flesh and skin were gone, only the bones were still intact. After staring at the skeleton for a while, I sighed in my heart and said, "Xiaolan, you can also be reincarnated with peace of mind." ”

Xiao Hei also walked in front of me, looked at the bones and said, "I just don't know how his body is in Liuhu." ”

yes, that's a problem. However, Xiaolan doesn't know the answer to this question, after so many years, unless we can drain the water of Liuhu Lake and see if there is a secret passage connecting Xiaolan Lake, I'm afraid no one will be able to solve this mystery.

I shook my head, and was about to speak, when my eyes suddenly caught in something unusual. The right hand of the skeleton was clenched into a fist, and since there was no flesh and skin, only bones, I could see something inside the fist through the gap between my fingers!

I struggled for a few seconds, and finally crouched down, held my breath, and reached out to break the bone's right hand. It was the first time I had held the hand of a dead man who had been dead for more than ten years and had only bones left, and the strange sensation made my scalp tingle.

On the skeletal palm is a small circle of round, blackened metal. I picked it up, stood up, and put it in front of my eyes to observe. Xiao Hei also saw it on the side, and said, "This thing is a bit like a ring!" ”

Due to the long immersion in the water, the surface of the small circle solidified a black layer, and the original face could not be seen. But looking at the way it looks, it's not a ring or a ring.

I took out a tissue and wrapped it up in my pocket. My idea at the time was actually very simple, since the boy's body had been fished out, the next step would definitely be to identify it and send it for cremation. In that case, it doesn't matter if I take this little circle away. And even if the boy dies, he still has to hold this small circle, which means that the small circle is very important to him, so I want to take the small circle to ask Hu Xiaolan, she may know.

But as the old saying goes, things don't happen, and once again things turned out beyond my expectations. The end of this incident was actually in a direction that I had not thought of beforehand!

The body was recovered from the Liuhu Lake of the Police Academy, which was a big deal, so Vice Principal He called the police at that time. When the police arrived, they pulled away the bones. As the parties to this matter, Xiao Hei and I were also called for questioning.

The policeman who asked me was an old acquaintance, Officer Zeng Yizeng. Because he happened to be the deputy captain of the criminal police team in charge of this section of the police academy, he came as soon as there was a case in the police academy.

Because of the previous murders, I was already the number one criminal suspect in his mind, so when I was involved in the matter of recovering the corpse in Liuhu, Officer Zeng once again targeted me.

On the edge of Willow Lake, the police came and pulled the bones away, and the students scattered in twos and threes when they saw that there was no excitement to see. I wanted to leave, but Officer Zeng stopped me.

"I have a few questions for you." He said to me.

I knew what he wanted to ask, and because I was calm, I agreed.

"First question, how do you know there are corpses in the lake?" Officer Zeng stared at me intently, as if trying to deduce something from my expression.

I replied with a blank face: "Officer Zeng, I said that the owner of the corpse entrusted me with a dream, I don't know if you believe it or not?" Officer Zeng said solemnly: "Chen Shen, I'm not joking with you!" ”

I glanced at Officer Zeng and said, "I'm not kidding, it's just that you haven't believed what I say, so why do you need to ask me?" ”

Officer Zeng looked at me coldly and remained silent.

Words are not speculative for more than half a sentence. I shook my head, feeling that there was nothing to say, and I was about to leave: "Officer Zeng, if you have evidence that I am a murderer, then arrest me." Anyway, I've already told you what I should say, there are indeed ghosts in this world. Ghost killing, I've seen it. There are corpses in Willow Lake, and the ghost told me that. You see the extent of the decomposition of that corpse, it's been dead for years. If it weren't for the ghost telling me the information, how could I have known that there were corpses at the bottom of the lake? I don't have the power of prophets! ”

Officer Zeng didn't speak, but his broad eyes narrowed and he looked at me quietly.

"I know you don't believe what I say, or suspect me of being a murderer, then I have nothing to say." After saying this, I turned around and was about to leave, when suddenly a sentence came from behind me: "Wait." ”

I turned around and looked at Officer Zeng calmly.

Officer Zeng's usually serious face suddenly showed a hint of struggle and hesitation, and he said slowly: "Chen Shen, if what you say is true, then... So you should know the identity of this corpse? ”

In just one sentence, Officer Zeng said it for a long time. It is indeed extremely difficult for him to accept the premise that there are ghosts in the world.

I didn't hide it, and said lightly: "I don't know his name, but I know who he is." There has been a love story circulating in the police academy, I wonder if Officer Zeng has heard of it? That corpse is the hero of that love story. ”

I thought I was going to take the time to explain the love legend of the police academy, but I didn't expect Officer Zeng to know it. When he heard the words love story, his expression changed, and he lost his voice: "You mean to say that the corpse is Lin Zihui?" ”

Who is Lin Zihui? I don't know. But seeing that Officer Zeng was so excited, did he know that Lin Zihui? I didn't speak, and Officer Zeng took a breath and explained, "Ten years ago, I was also a cadet of the police academy. In the love story you just said, the protagonist's name is Xiaolan, right? I've heard that story too. ”

Looking at Officer Zeng's strange expression, my heart moved and I asked, "Officer Zeng, are you?" ......" I didn't ask, but Officer Zeng understood what I meant, smiled bitterly, and said, "That's good." The boy who drowned in Yang Lake in that love story was named Lin Zihui. We used to stay in the same dormitory. ”

Yes...... I never expected it...... Officer Zeng is not only my senior brother, but also has such a relationship with the boy in the story. They turned out to be roommates! Just like me and Blackie! Looking at his sad expression now, the relationship between him and Lin Zihui should have been very good back then.
