Chapter 68: A Stupid Scam
At this time, the woman he pushed in was exactly the masseuse girl who appeared at my door yesterday, and at this time, the masseuse woman was holding my wallet and mobile phone in her hand!
Seeing that the stolen goods were all gone, the old man's face turned white, and the whole person sat on the ground!
As I expected, this so-called haunted trick is a good show played by the old man and the massage girl!
From the moment I walked into the inn, the old man had been hinting at me, the haunted inn. Immediately, when I was ready to go to bed, the masseuse appeared, with two details, which further confirmed the haunted situation of the room.
One of them was the card that suddenly became the contact information of the funeral home, at that time, she was holding her photo card, but after stuffing it into my pocket, it instantly became a card of the funeral home. Now that I think about it, the woman just used the simplest card swap in magic, first put the two cards together, and when she showed it in front of me, she only showed the side with her sexy photo.
Out of preconceived thoughts, when I saw her stuffing the card into my pocket, I would subconsciously think that the woman left the photo card in my pocket. As everyone knows, quietly, the real card has been replaced by her.
The second was the five black handprints she left on my chest.
To accomplish this, it couldn't have been easier, the woman's fingers were first secretly dipped in potassium permanganate, and they pinched my chest. Because this chemical is black and purple, once it is stained on the body, it is difficult to wash off, resulting in the effect of "ghost handprints".
As for the broken jade pendant, it was also a part of the old man's elaborate design, and the rope of the jade pendant was made of a special material, and they secretly left that kind of ghost handprint outside the window at that time, tempting me to go and close the window. At that time, it was pouring rain outside, and the rope quickly melted when it encountered water, so it caused the phenomenon of evil ghosts appearing and jade pendants falling.
And the reason why I fainted, I'm afraid, had something to do with the pot of boiling water that the old man brought up at that time. These two guys must have secretly drugged the kettle beforehand!
With such a perfect layout, these two guys must have done this more than once, and maybe there are their accomplices in this inn! And the guests who have been treated like this by them before may really think that the room is haunted, and after being thrown into the barren mountains and mountains, it is too late to escape, and they will definitely not think about calling the police or anything.
In this way, these guys can recklessly rob the money of the guests, but unfortunately, this time, they robbed the wrong person!
After listening to my reasoning, the old man and the masseuse had nothing to say, and they confessed to the facts of the crime. Since three years ago, the old man has bought this almost dilapidated inn and committed many crimes with this haunted trick.
They usually pick out the travelers who stay alone, and the modus operandi is very different from what I had previously surmised. Over the years, the total amount of property plundered by this old guy has reached hundreds of thousands!
After being handcuffed, the old man stared at me unwillingly and said loudly.
"I've been in this business for three years, and I've never missed a beat, and there was a policeman who even caught my way. Young man, how do you see the way out? ”
Looking at him, I smiled: "In a word, I don't do bad things in my life, and I'm not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night." From the beginning, I didn't believe that the room was haunted, and as long as you used this as a basis, it would be easy to find the flaws in the tricks you played! ”
"Admire! The old decay is willing to bow down! The old man said and was about to walk out of the police car, but I stopped him.
"Wait, although you set up shop here to steal money, I don't think you have the intention of harming anyone. Otherwise, after knocking me out last night, you could have killed me instead of leaving me in the mountains and choosing to let me live! In this way, you will take my life, and I will also give you a chance to repent, ask you a question, answer truthfully, maybe, I can help you reduce your sentence or something! ”
After finishing speaking, I gave Lu Yuan a look, this guy was also alert, took out the photo of the stump of the left palm from his pocket, put it in front of the old man, and asked him if he recognized the left palm whose it was.
When the old man saw the butterfly tattoo on the inside of his left palm, his pupils contracted obviously and quickly for a while!
"No. Didn't see it! ”
"Lie, you know whose severed hand it is!" The old man's ability to deceive people is still too poor. It can be seen that the shock brought to him by that severed hand is too great!
"You arrest me and go back, I will admit how long the sentence is, please stop asking!"
"Even if you spend the rest of your life in prison, you don't want to say it?"
"Well, no regrets!"
The situation suddenly froze, but I didn't expect the old man, who was originally cooperative, to suddenly become so resistant. Who was the owner of this severed hand, and why did he react in such a way?
Just when I was at a loss for what to do. The masseuse girl who was originally arrested suddenly raised her hand tremblingly and whispered: "That, can you let me take a look at the photo, maybe, I know!" ”
"You dare!" Seeing this, the old man's muscles burst out, and he suddenly broke free from the police officer who controlled him, snatched the photo, and was about to eat it in his stomach.
Thanks to Lu Yuan's faster reaction, before the old man was about to make a move, he snatched the photo from his hand and held it in his hand. At the same time, all the surrounding police officers rushed up and subdued the old man together.
Even if his robbery crime is exposed, I have never seen this old guy so nervous, and now, with that photo of a severed hand, is it worth his life? From this point of view, the owner of this amputated hand must be extraordinary!
The masseuse carefully took the photo, put it in front of her eyes, and looked at it carefully for a while. When she saw the butterfly tattoo, she trembled.
"Isn't this tattoo Jiang Xiaoxiao? Let's just say why she hasn't been here lately, I thought she went back! The masseuse girl looked at the old man, and suddenly showed a look of sudden realization: "My God, no wonder the underworld has been making trouble for you recently, could it be that you already knew that Xiaoxiao was killed, so you have been hiding it from them?" ”
"No, I only found out when I saw the photo! You know, I only rob, I never kill! The old man suddenly panicked, waved his hand again and again, and kept retreating behind him.
Seeing this, Lu Yuan scolded the two loudly, asking them to tell what was going on, who was that Jiang Xiaoxiao, and how long had he been missing?
Looking at the situation, the old man saw that he finally couldn't hide it anymore, sighed, and then slowly told the truth of the matter.
It turned out that Jiang Xiaoxiao, like the massage girl, was engaged in prostitution, and she was also the old man's trust left in the hotel. She has several tattoos on her body, the most striking of which is the butterfly on her left arm.
According to Jiang Xiaoxiao's own words, she longed for a free life like a butterfly, so she left this tattoo. When she earns enough money here, she's going to leave here and fly away to live a new life!
It's just that unlike the massage girl, Jiang Xiaoxiao has a gangster background, so she not only pretends to be a ghost in the hotel, but sometimes makes a fairy dance or something, and makes a lot of money. The old man was very disgusted with her doing this, but because of her background, he didn't dare to speak up.
However, a few days ago, Jiang Xiaoxiao suddenly disappeared, and she didn't even say hello, and she never appeared again. The old man thought that she had made enough money and had already left here, but the gang also came over to find out Jiang Xiaoxiao's whereabouts.
The old man knew at that time that Jiang Xiaoxiao's disappearance was not so simple, but now that he saw the amputated hand, he was sure that the girl must have been killed!
"The best time you see Jiang Xiaoxiao, when is it?"
"Around the 4th of June, we happened to knock a lot of money on a middle-aged uncle, so I was very impressed. Sister Xiaoxiao was in a very high mood at the time, saying that she would make another order tomorrow, so that she would not worry about eating and drinking this year and next year! The masseuse slowly recalled.
According to what the masseuse said, then, Jiang Xiaoxiao's disappearance is very likely to be from June 4th to June 5th! And this time happened to be when Guo Fangzheng came to this hotel!
Once or twice may be a coincidence, so many coincidences when they come together, it is no longer as simple as a coincidence!
