Chapter 25: Miracles
The voice was a little muffled, not loud. It's not easy to describe, but if you barely describe it, it's like the sound of someone slapping a slate.
At this moment, He Wei's eyes widened suddenly, the muscles of her body tensed, and the muzzle of the gun instantly pointed at the sarcophagus.
Almost subconsciously, she assumed a fighting stance, like a lion about to pounce on its prey.
Lu Ming's heart tightened, and he subconsciously wanted to react, but he saw Zhang Dingshan open his arms and press down, signaling the two of them to be calm and not to act rashly.
It was only at this moment that Lu Ming reacted slightly, only feeling that his heart was pounding.
The previous goddess confessed that the Destiny Organization believed that the god they worshipped, the god of fate, was sleeping in this sarcophagus. The "fate" of the fetus in the womb of a pregnant woman is also sacrificed to it. And, after the sacrifice, after the birth of that fetus, it will indeed be full of bad luck.
All kinds of clues show that this sarcophagus, the god of fate, does have something incredible.
Now, there was a sound from inside the sarcophagus.
The vigilantes who were standing behind the three people, a little farther away, did not hear the faint sound, but when they saw the reaction of the three people, they immediately realized that something was wrong. Again without being summoned, the many vigilantes raised their guns and aimed at the sarcophagus.
Tight ......
At this moment, the needle drop could be heard in the huge hall, and only the faint sound of tension echoed in it. A slightly eerie aura filled all the space.
Zhang Dingshan's expression remained unchanged at all. He turned around and gestured to the vigilante escorting the goddess. The goddess was taken back again.
Lu Ming noticed that when he noticed a strange sound coming from the sarcophagus, the three of his own party and the security guards, although they were not afraid, were shocked, dignified, and serious, and there must have been. But the members of the Destiny Organization, including the goddess, are still immersed in the emotions of being captured.
They didn't react to the noise.
This necessarily means that they are not too surprised by this. It seems that this kind of thing is already normal for them.
"What's that noise?"
Zhang Dingshan asked the goddess in a deep voice. The goddess trembled and said, "This is the response of the gods. ”
He Wei snorted: "Speak human words!" ”
The goddess trembled in fright, and her voice was filled with crying again: "I don't know, that's what the last saint taught me." This sound is heard from this sarcophagus every time we perform a sacrificial ritual to offer the Pure Spirit to the gods. The previous saint said that this means that the gods have received our sacrifice and are satisfied......"
Lu Ming said: "It rings every time? When there is no sacrifice, will it sound? ”
"No, it won't. I have been a saint for more than 30 years, keeping watch day and night, and if it rings, can I not know? ”
Lu Ming realized that this obviously meant that there was some kind of connection between the sacrifices of the members of the Destiny Organization and the strange sound of the sarcophagus. Of course, what exactly this connection is is not known at the moment.
"What happens when it rings?"
"No, it won't be. It won't ring for a while. ”
In the middle of this question, the tense sound coming from the sarcophagus gradually decreased, and finally disappeared completely. The whole thing lasted less than five minutes.
Lu Ming's brows furrowed, and after thinking for a moment, he waved his hand and motioned for the security guards to take away the goddess who claimed to be a saint.
A large number of members of the Destiny Organization were all taken away, and more than a hundred vehicles were loaded with the security guards who escorted them. At this moment, more vigilantes gathered here, protecting the rest of the professionals who had been mobilized, and carefully searched the clubhouse.
There were also more than twenty heavily armed security guards left in the hall, ready to prepare for possible accidents.
Under the gaze of everyone, Zhang Dingshan, He Wei, and Lu Ming went straight forward, walked around the sarcophagus slowly, and looked at it carefully.
During this observation, Lu Ming saw that this sarcophagus seemed to be carved from a whole piece of rock.
The lid of the coffin on top of it does not appear to be a free-standing stone slab. It is one with the coffin.
Not only that, but the coffin and the stone slab on the floor of this hall seem to be one and the same.
Lu Ming looked around, but did not see any traces of seams or assemblies on the floor of the hall.
Seem...... It seems that the whole hall is one. Like, this cave didn't exist at all, as if someone had carved such a hall directly out of the mountain, leveled the floor, and carved a sarcophagus.
If that's the case, then this sarcophagus should also be solid. But if there's no space inside, how does the sound come from?
After pondering for a long time, Zhang Dingshan finally made a decision.
"Contact Qingliang and mobilize rock experts to find a way to see through the inside of this sarcophagus and see what is strange."
Zhang Dingshan did not say anything like opening the sarcophagus. At this moment, the situation is unclear, so in order to avoid accidents, it is better not to act rashly.
"Yes."
Lu Ming agreed.
"Let's go."
After leaving some people on guard here and installing monitoring equipment, Lu Ming and the three of them left here.
In the Shanbei City Public Security Bureau, Lu Ming once again met Zhou Chang, who commanded and planned the entire fate organization to investigate and arrest matters. At this moment, Zhou Chang, whose eyes were bloodshot and full of tiredness, was still excited.
For him, this arrest operation can be described as a complete achievement and a successful ending. The illegal god worship organization that had been monitored and fought against for more than ten years was uprooted in his hands at this moment, and all the core members were wiped out, which made him feel satisfied in this life and this life.
The red-robed cultist turned out to be the leader of the Destiny Organization. His suicide was a pity for the second action team, after all, it was impossible to interrogate the secrets he knew, but it was completely indifferent to Zhou Chang.
If you're dead, you're dead, after all, if you didn't run, did you? Anyway, you can't do evil again in the future, and it doesn't matter if you're dead or alive.
At this moment, Zhou Chang's face was full of smiles, and he couldn't see his teeth when he smiled.
Seeing Lu Ming coming, he hurriedly came over and grabbed Lu Ming's hand, shook it vigorously, and thanked him repeatedly: "Thank you Sergeant Lu, if it weren't for you, I would be really ......."
As soon as Lu Ming's hand was caught, he noticed that Zhou Chang's hands were full of grease, and then looked at his big oily face, and immediately understood in his heart that he didn't know how many times these hands had been wiped on his face. At this moment, I don't know how much oil I have on my hands, and the smile on my face immediately became a little reluctant.
"Congratulations, that, Team Zhou, I've been busy for so many days, I haven't slept in a good night, let others do the interrogation, you hurry up and rest, get a good night's sleep."
As he spoke, he withdrew his hand without a trace.
"Good, good. Thanks also to the two sheriffs......"
Zhou Chang withdrew his hand and wanted to shake hands with Zhang Dingshan and He Wei.
After all, these two people are Lu Ming's colleagues and belong to their superiors. But at this moment, I saw that the two of them didn't know when they had walked away, at this moment one looked thoughtfully at the security guard code hanging on the wall, and the other looked at the bonsai next to him seriously, as if that ordinary green plant was a thousand-year-old treasure.
Hearing Zhou Chang's words at this moment, the two of them seemed to have just reacted, and immediately said with a smile on their faces: "We should thank Team Zhou." Go and rest. ”
A few people exchanged a few pleasantries, each full of enthusiasm, but the handshake was avoided.
Zhou Chang went to the lounge to rest, and He Wei took out a wet towel without a trace and handed it to Lu Ming. Lu Ming wiped his hands and sighed sincerely: "Compared to the two of you, I am really far behind." ”
He Wei pursed her lips and ignored Lu Ming, just sighed slightly: "This Zhou Chang is also a talent. I seized this opportunity at this moment, and I performed so well, and I have a bright future in the future. ”
Lu Ming also felt the same way.
Human civilization has a population of nearly 10 billion, and there is never a shortage of talents, but only opportunities. As soon as you have the opportunity to prove yourself, the talent will immediately soar.
In this campaign to exterminate the fate organization, Zhou Chang coordinated the overall situation, meticulous and meticulous, although there were some omissions in the details, but on the whole, it was remarkable, with the style of a general. In the future, if there is any big action, his superiors will be able to leave it to him with confidence.
He Wei looked at Lu Ming: "Your laziness for a while has made him happen." ”
Zhang Dingshan said: "In the future, specific things can be handed over to professionals to do." But the overall situation must be controlled by yourself. It is not possible to let go of it. ”
Lu Ming lowered his head a little ashamedly: "Yes." I understand. ”
Zhou Changgong retired, and the follow-up interrogation work was taken care of by the second action team.
"This interrogation may not be easy."
He Wei is a little worried about the prospects of this work.
Lu Ming also felt this way.
The reason is simple. At least for now, until they can fully investigate this incident and figure out what the nature of these supernatural things is, so as to rip off its mysterious cloak, for the members of the Destiny Organization, the gods they believe in are truly there.
This is the most essential difference between the Destiny Organization and the rest of the god-worshipping organizations, whether illegal or legal.
Even if it is a legitimate god worship organization, I have never heard of a god appearing in the world and descending on a miracle. Not to mention the illegal.
However, the god of destiny that the fate organization believes in has real miracles. Whether it is the bad luck after the birth of the fetus after being sacrificed, or the luck after being given luck, or the strange sound coming from the sarcophagus after the sacrifice, can be considered a miracle.
With the miracles, the members of the Order will be hardened in their faith to the point of becoming fanatical believers.
And for the interrogation work, the most difficult opponents are not the gangsters, not the murderers, but precisely the fanatical believers who have enough spiritual support.
Even if they are bandits, after committing a crime, no matter how strong their spirit is, no matter how they can keep secrets, at least from the bottom of their hearts, they still know that what they have done is wrong.
But believers are different. Deep down, they don't even think they're doing anything wrong.
This kind of person is the most difficult.
Facing He Wei's worries, Zhang Dingshan said calmly: "No matter how difficult it is, you have to pry their mouths open." Contact Qingliang, send me an interrogation expert, and then send experts in criminal psychology and illegal god worship organizations to jointly formulate an interrogation plan. ”
With Zhang Dingshan's order, Lu Qingliang, who was sitting in the rear, began to be busy again. After countless phone calls, the next day, more than 20 people came to report to Zhang Dingshan one after another.
In this incident, Lu Qingliang is still as efficient and stable as ever.
It took more than a day of meetings and discussions between the experts, as well as many front-line interrogators, to finally develop an interrogation plan. But something unexpected by the three members of Operation Team 2 happened again.
According to the interrogation plan, this first interrogation would have only asked about trivial matters, so as to lower the vigilance of the members of the organization. But unexpectedly, among the hundreds of members of the organization, there were exactly fifty or sixty people, and before the interrogator could ask, they poured beans into a bamboo tube and took the initiative to recruit everything they knew.
This time, Lu Ming didn't know how to interrogate. At the critical moment, Zhang Dingshan was still in danger: "The original interrogation plan was abandoned, give me a direct trial, chase after the victory, and take them down in one go!" ”
As a result, the interrogation plan was urgently revised, and many front-line interrogators made sudden interrogations overnight, successfully priing open the mouths of most of the members of the organization. The few remaining stubborn ones seem to have a breakthrough at hand.
With the confessions of these people, Lu Ming gradually understood why they confessed so easily.
The reason is simple. This is originally just a collection of interests, and even if there are all kinds of "miracles", in fact, there are not too many questions of faith.
Why are the members of the organization willing to join the Destiny Organization, and why are they willing to believe in the God of Destiny?
Is it because of miracles? Is it because of faith? Neither.
There is only one real reason. Believing in the god of fate, the fetus's luck can be transferred to oneself through sacrificial rituals. You can make yourself lucky. That's all.
It's just a deal. Since it's just a transaction, how can we talk about loyalty?
As a result, under the hard work of a large number of front-line interrogators, in just three days, many confessions were continuously generated, and after being sorted out, they gathered in front of the three members of the second operation team.
This information is not yet complete, some of which still need to be supplemented later, and some of which need to be cross-verified to confirm their authenticity. But the overall framework is complete.
From this information, several questions in Lu Ming's heart were finally answered.
"What a calamity, alas."
Looking at the confessions of the members of the Destiny Organization in the information, Lu Ming sighed deeply.
At the beginning, Lin Shiquan and Zhao Lifang had nothing to do with the fate organization at all. They just happened to meet members of the Destiny Organization and were kidnapped here.
