[144] Nightmare

"What about the autopsy?"

The policeman talked for a long time, but he never got to the point, and Director Han couldn't help but interrupt him and asked, "Is the autopsy report out?" ”

"That's not ......"

The policeman shook his head, and then said: "However, our preliminary examination shows that the deceased did not have any skin injuries, and even the skin injuries left by the traders have long since healed." ”

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Director Han couldn't help frowning, and then asked, "Can I see the corpse?" ”

"Absolutely."

The man nodded, led us to the corpse, directly lifted the white cloth on it, and said, "Director Han is an expert in criminal investigation, you can come over to help, we can't ask for it!" ”

Director Han didn't answer again, but took me and Brother Zhang to carefully examine the still warm corpse.

Sure enough, as the policeman said just now, there were no obvious skin injuries on the deceased's body. Even the bruises from the previous beatings have faded to the point where they have almost disappeared.

However, when I looked at it carefully, I couldn't help but focus my eyes on the forehead of the deceased.

There was a bruise in the place that was so faint that you couldn't even notice it if you didn't look closely. At the same time, its shape is also very strange, it actually looks a bit like a lip print? Well, to put it simply, it's a bit like a "strawberry" left behind after being kissed.

But who would a homeless man kiss on his forehead?

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but frown, as if something suddenly flashed through my head, but I never caught it.

"How?"

Xu was aware of my gaze, and Director Han couldn't help but quickly ask, "Did you find anything?" ”

"No ......"

Shaking my head, I said, "It's true that there is no obvious skin injury, but it seems to be ...... on this forehead."

"Forehead?"

As soon as he heard this, Director Han couldn't help but glance at the dead man's forehead, and subconsciously asked, "Isn't it just a bruise that hasn't had time to dissipate?" Nothing special, is it? ”

"Don't you think this bruise is a bit like a kiss mark after a kiss?"

"Kiss marks?"

Director Han and the others were obviously stunned, and couldn't help but look at the deceased's forehead again, then nodded and said, "Don't say it, if you look closely, this is indeed a bit like a kiss mark!" ”

Then he said suspiciously: "It's just, who would kiss a homeless man so hard?" Moreover, just such a small wound could not be the cause of his death, right? ”

"There must be a demon when things go wrong, anyway, I think this kiss mark is quite strange......"

As I was talking, the mobile phone in my pocket suddenly vibrated and when I opened it, it turned out to be a text message from Xia Xiaoyi. Ask me if I'm done here, if I'm done, I'll go back early, she has already started to prepare for refining the auxiliary medicinal materials of Kwai Shui Yin.

"Sorry, I'll call you back first."

Smiled apologetically at everyone, and then I quickly dialed Xia Xiaoyi's phone, saying that I am still in Huaxi, and I may not be able to come back until later, so let her get ready first, and I will try to go back as soon as possible.

As soon as she heard that I was in Huaxi at the moment, Xia Xiaoyi immediately asked curiously: "What's going on again?" ”

I was worried about the kiss mark on the bum's forehead, so I hastened to tell her what was going on, and asked her what she thought.

"What? Are you saying he had no other fatal wounds on his body, except for a kiss mark on his forehead? ”

I listened to what she meant, and it seemed that I really deduced something from it.

So he quickly nodded and said, "Yes! Is there anything wrong? ”

"Of course not!"

Xia Xiaoyi replied to me angrily, and then said: "I remember, there is a kind of ghost called Nightmare in the Hundred Ghost List!" This may well be its masterpiece! ”

"Huh?"

As soon as I heard this, I was immediately startled and hurriedly asked, "Nightmare? Is it powerful? ”

"Nonsense! Its ranking in the Hundred Ghost List is much higher than the shadow girl we met before, and it is very close to the ghost mother's fierceness! You hurry back, don't get involved in this matter again, you have to wait until you heal from your injuries! ”

Xia Xiaoyi said solemnly, it seems that this ghost called Nightmare is indeed not ordinary. Even Xia Xiaoyi, who has always been "not afraid of heaven and earth", has become so cautious.

However, the more she said this, the more interested I became in the nightmare, and I asked, "What is the origin of this nightmare?" How can a single lip print kill someone? ”

"The lip print is just a by-product, what really causes a person's death is because his brain marrow and three souls and seven spirits have been devoured by nightmares! If you don't believe it, you can have a medical examiner dissect the body to see if his brain marrow is still there. ”

"Its cultivation method is roughly similar to that of the Shadow Girl, and it is also based on the soul to grow its own body. Once it is entangled, it will wait for you to fall asleep, lie on top of you, keep kissing your forehead, suck up your brain first, and when your soul is out of your body, it will grab your soul together and eat it! ”

"Damn!"

I couldn't help but be startled when I heard this, and subconsciously cursed: "It's not so evil, right?" I actually do it while people are sleeping......"

"Hmph, what do you think?"

Xia Xiaoyi snorted coldly, and then continued: "Nightmares are rare ghosts, because its killing methods are quite secretive, so few people generally find them. And once it is discovered, it has often absorbed a lot of souls, so it is profound, and if you want to subdue it at that time, it will not be a little difficult......"

"Grass!"

As soon as I heard it, I couldn't help but scold: "Damn, I just met the person from the Soul Gate at noon, and I met such a perverted evil ghost in the afternoon, this Nima still doesn't let people rest......"

I really can't complain, before that, Lao Zhangtou clearly told me that there are not many demons and monsters in this world. Even if there is, they are generally hidden and rarely exposed to people, so even cultivators rarely encounter them. Some cultivators who rely on this for food may not even be able to find a real guy for several months, so they will be misunderstood as charlatans.

I never thought that I, a half-baked cultivator, would encounter ghosts one after another. Not only that, but I also met some big guys, and they were some notorious evil ghosts on the list of 100 ghosts at every turn.

"Heh......"

As soon as she heard this, Xia Xiaoyi couldn't help but laugh: "Who made you a lone star, in this regard, God obviously still takes good care of you......"

“……”

Alas, what a miserable life!

This hasn't reached my second natal year yet, this evil thing, just hit me one after another, really wait for me to reach the second natal year, then I can't form a group to watch me?

With a long sigh, I nodded and said to Xia Xiaoyi on the phone, "Okay, I know!" I'll be careful! ”

As soon as they hung up the phone, Director Han and Brother Zhang immediately came up and asked nervously, "What's the matter?" ”

There were a lot of people here, and I didn't explain too much, so I shook my head and returned to the corpse again, and at the same time suggested to the elderly policeman just now: "I think the focus of your autopsy should be on the bruise on his forehead, you can dissect it to see if the cerebral marrow in his head is still there?" ”

"Huh?"

The policeman looked at me suspiciously, and the policeman couldn't help but look at Director Han with a puzzled look and asked, "Who is this?" ”

"Oh, he's a friend of mine, he's ...... Uh......"

In front of so many people, Director Han really didn't know how to introduce me, so he could only say vaguely: "He has a very special set of methods in criminal investigation, I think you can give it a try, he never has a target." ”

"Good! Then I'll send someone to send the corpse to the autopsy table, hoping to find something. ”

The policeman nodded, and prepared to take the body to the autopsy room.

At this moment, a flash of inspiration suddenly occurred in my mind, and I finally caught what had just flashed by. His face suddenly changed, and he slapped his thigh: "It's broken!" ”

"Huh?"

As soon as the words fell, Director Han and Brother Zhang's faces suddenly changed, and they subconsciously asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Xiao Wu may be in danger! Fast! We've got to rush back right now! ”

With that, I hurried to the door.

As soon as they heard that Xiao Wu was likely to be in danger, Director Han and Brother Zhang naturally did not hesitate to do anything, and quickly chased after them. It wasn't until the car started that Director Han hurriedly asked, "What's going on?" ”

"When I was observing Xiao Wu just now, it seemed that I faintly found a shallow mark on his forehead, but he had just woken up at the time, and I thought he had made it himself, so I didn't care about it at all, and now it seems that ......"

Speaking of this, I couldn't help but hurriedly urge Brother Zhang: "Drive faster!" ”

"It's already the fastest!"

Brother Zhang smiled bitterly and said, "No matter how fast it is, you can only speed!" ”

"Grass! When is this time, and what is the speed limit! ”

As soon as he heard this, Director Han couldn't help but scold: "Sound the siren!" Get out of the way of the car in front of you! ”

"Hmm!"

Brother Zhang nodded hurriedly, and said at the same time: "Sit tight!" ”

……

The road was fast, and in only about 20 minutes, we successfully rushed back to the Baoshan Branch. But when we hurried back to the office, we found that Xiao Wu's seat was already empty, and the person was gone.

"What about Xiao Wu? Where did he go? ”

Seeing that Xiao Wu was not there, Director Han suddenly became anxious, and subconsciously asked several policemen on duty next to him, "Isn't he on duty today?" ”

Fox looked at us suspiciously, and then someone said, "It seems to have gone to the toilet......

As soon as his words fell, I rushed straight to the toilet, and at the same time took out the "Mrs. Xu Dagger" from the Qiankun bag.

With a "bang", I kicked open the door of the toilet, and immediately felt that the toilet was much darker.

At this time, Xiao Wu was squatting on the toilet, but his eyes were closed, damn, you can fall asleep in the toilet! I wonder if this will kill you?

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but quickly turn my yin and yang eyes, and directly looked around.

However, in the entire toilet, except for Xiao Wu, I didn't find any clues. At the same time, Director Han and Brother Zhang finally rushed to the toilet, and when they saw Xiao Wu sleeping on the toilet, they hurriedly rushed up. Stretched out his hand to probe his snort, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, Xiao Wu was still alive.

"How?"

After confirming that Xiao Wu was still alive, Director Han hurriedly asked me, "Have you found that harmful ghost?" ”

"It's already gone!"

Shaking my head, I couldn't help but come to Xiao Wu's face, and after looking at it carefully, I immediately frowned: "It's bad, the kiss marks on his forehead are getting clearer and clearer!" ”

While speaking, I quickly pressed my hand on Xiao Wu's forehead, and through the induction of the Qi field, I found that Xiao Wu's soul was indeed much weaker than ordinary people.

However, thankfully, his three souls and seven spirits are all there, as for the brain marrow...... It should still be there, right? Otherwise, wouldn't it have died a long time ago?
