Chapter 50: Case Judgment

Pushing open the door, Lu Ran saw the first crime scene in his life.

He has seen enough dead people, but it is difficult not to make people churn in their stomachs again and almost vomit with such a dead person.

It was supposed to be a conference room, with a huge table in the center of the room, and the three victims were placed in the center of the table like three bonsai.

The victim in the middle, with his hair disheveled, dead and blind, with four severed hands of the other two people hanging on his body, plus his own six arms, each holding some pens, seals and other office supplies, some teeth and claws, his lower body was twisted into a twist by some strange force, and it was very much like a snake, his whole body was supported by a thigh bone to stand still.

The victim on the left was a young woman, half-naked, with a missing piece of her chest, her hair had been combed behind her by the murderer dipped in blood, and it had congealed into lumps, and her face was the strangest, half clean, and the other half was covered with another person's skin, a blood-red face, which made her look like she was only half a face, or half male and half female......

Wait, half male, half female?

Seeing this, Lu Ran already understood something, and quickly turned his gaze to the third victim.

The third victim was supposed to be a thin and short old man, but at this time his head was glued to his head with two hearts in the shape of two buns, and his eye sockets had been hollowed out, which seemed to be filled with ink, from which cyan ink flowed and sprinkled on him, and emitted a strange fluorescence......

"So you know, this is no ordinary case."

Angeline covered her mouth and nose and said faintly, but in a blink of an eye, she saw Lu Ran's face, not only did she not have a trace of panic and fear, but she seemed full of interest, and the familiar hot light of exploring the truth burst out from the eyes of this messy young man, like two fires that tore through the darkness, burning brightly.

Lu Ran suddenly turned his head, "I want to meet the murderer."

Angeline was a little surprised, "How do you know the killer is still here?"

Lu Ran smiled, "Intuition."

Angeline pouted, "Then your instincts are not accurate, the person has already been brought back to the office."

"Huh." Lu Ran smiled a little embarrassedly, turned his gaze back, and said in his heart, No, I obviously felt that strong killing intent, in these rooms.

After a closer look, he finally found something strange for him, and he found a little white powder under the last victim.

If nothing else, these powders should be the same as the ones found under Huizhen in the hospital at that time.

He collected a pack at the time, and he still carries it with him.

"What is this?" Angeline saw that Lu Ran had made a discovery, and came over.

"We'll talk in another place." Lu Ran twisted the powder on his fingertips and smiled slyly, "Even if you don't have time now, you must have a good chat with me."

Angelin showed her true detective evidence, and the staff of Wudaxian Temple agreed to let Lu Ran enter for the second time.

As soon as she saw the three statues, Angelin, who had always been calm, couldn't help but make a noise on this occasion.

"Crooked?!"

It's still the same sentence that Lu Ran is familiar with.

Lu Ran spread his hands, indicating that this is not the place to speak, and, look, I didn't lie to you.

Angeline was "crooked" all the way and led Lu Ran to a café under the Pangu Building.

Coffee is the most unpleasant thing Lu Ran has ever drunk in his life.

But Angeline drained a glass of iced Americana in one gulp, and immediately went to refill it.

"Tell me what you know." Angeline pulled together her spirits and pulled out a pen and paper.

Lu Ran thought for a while and said, "I don't know more than you, it's just that on my way to find you, I just entered that temple, and I happened to see those statues of gods, and then I happened to come to the scene of the murder, and found that the two were unexpectedly identical."

Angeline stopped her pen, "You mean, it's a coincidence?"

Lu Ran nodded, "Unexplainable things can only be said to be coincidences for the time being."

Angeline raised her head, glanced at Lu Ran firmly, and said, "For a true detective, there is never a coincidence, all coincidences are carefully designed, but we haven't found any connections and clues yet."

Lu Ran thought for a moment and began to think about how to tell Angelin that what was strange about this matter was not the coincidence of the two, but the Wudaxian Temple itself.

"There is some hesitation in your eyes, or rather, some scruples, what else do you know?" Angeline's eyes were sharp, and she saw through him at once.

Lu Ran sat up straight, and his tone was extremely sincere, "I do know something, but I don't know how to tell you, I can only tell you that I have been to a place once, and in that place, the three immortals enshrined in this Wudaxian Temple are real."

Angeline's originally gentle eyes gradually became serious and solemn.

With her years of experience in knowing people, what Lu Ran said was all true.

"In other words, the similarity between the two is like the existence of the three immortals, it is a coincidence, and it is also a kind of mystery."

"Mysterious? You shouldn't make up some horror stories about these three immortals who fell into the body of murderers and then appeared to warn the world of this kind of horror? It's better that this murderer was inspired or stimulated by that temple, and it was schizophrenic that he caused such a vicious murder." Rationality made Angeline choose not to believe Lu Ran's words, and at the same time she gave a possibility that she thought was scientific.

Lu Ran didn't understand "schizophrenia" and "chatting", and asked, "You mean the murderer is crazy?"

"yes, that's a more reasonable explanation."

"I...... I didn't lie to you." Lu Ran found the bag of powder from his backpack, "I don't know if the murderer is crazy or not, but how to explain this bag of powder? It was under Hye-jin's bed and at the scene of the crime at the same time, and it could have been at the scene of the shooting."

"It's not a psychic movie, you know what it is?" Angeline took the paper bag, opened it, sniffed it, and tasted it.

Lu Ran shook his head, "I don't know, but it feels a bit like the skin of some kind of creature, ground into powder. Is there a way to find out where this thing came from?"

"You can send it to the Forensics Department for testing." Angeline made two strokes in her notes, muttered to herself, and took another long sip of coffee, when suddenly, she looked up, as if she had suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Oh. By the way, you're not here to help me with clues today, but you're here to ask me for help, right?"

"Yes, I'm here to ask you to help us find two groups of people." Lu Ran nodded, and then woke up, yes, compared to solving the case here, finding the three sisters is the most important thing at the moment.
