Chapter 233: Aftertaste
Hearing Xu Ling's explanation, I must have been very unconvinced, and couldn't help asking, "Why?" ”
After she hung up the phone, she turned her head, personally fastened my seat belt, and said, "Just because you are at the scene of the second crime, you are currently the most suspicious, are you satisfied with this reason?" In fact, if I hadn't heard of your deeds, you would have spent the night in it now. ”
"Then why are you opening up to me?" I asked.
Xu Ling started the car and drove on this bumpy road for a while before answering me: "Because of personal feelings, in terms of law and process, the credibility of your words is zero, but in terms of personal superstition and worship, I believe what you say 100%." And I have some feelings about the situation you said, because there have been people around me who have experienced similar situations before. ”
By the end, her gaze had deepened. Those eyes looked cloudy against the background of the night fog, but they had a hazy beauty.
"It's much easier to learn from the past. What has been the case to you? ”
"I didn't experience it, let's go to your house, right?" She demanded.
I'm a man, am I afraid that she will eat me? So I said yes.
When the two of us came to my house, my stomach was grumbling with hunger and I went to make noodles.
Remembering that she was a guest, I couldn't let her watch me eat, so I didn't ask too much, and just helped her make a box.
In fact, her eyes are also quite sharp, and not long after she sat down, she found a clue and asked me, "You usually live here with two people?" ”
"yes, how do you know?"
"I see you have two cups on the table, and there's a women's indoor slipper at the entrance. So the person who lives with you is a woman, right? When she said this, her tone looked a little lost.
After I brewed the instant noodles and brought them over, I told her the story of me and Wang Qiuyue.
While eating instant noodles, she told me what I wanted to know: "Actually, the person who has the same situation as you is my father." ”
"Your dad?"
"That's right! Four years ago, when I was in high school, my dad was the chief of the police department. But after he began to investigate the strange case, his relatives and friends began to disappear, and they all died after that. ”
Just as I was thinking deeply, she said: "What he checked at that time was actually about the 'skeleton fantasy picture' you said. ”
These two things, the most related point, I am afraid that is the "skeleton fantasy picture", right? However, I haven't seen that painting yet. So it's probably because of this that I'm fine.
At this moment, an important thought suddenly flashed through my mind, so I asked, "What happened to your dad now?" ”
Hearing my words, Xu Ling was silent for a while, and then said in a voice like a filament: "It's dead." ”
"Huh?" I was amazed, and at the same time realized that I had asked something I shouldn't have asked, so I hurriedly apologized.
Xu Ling said: "It's okay, after all, four years have passed, and I am relieved of any injuries." It's just that, in fact, the reason why I became the person I am and chose this career is because of that incident. ”
After speaking, she looked up, and there was a hint of pleading in her eyes.
I looked back at her, but I didn't know how to say those comforting words, so I remained silent. Just when I decided to say something to her, Xu Ling's phone rang suddenly.
"Wait a minute, I'll answer the phone first." After she finished speaking, she hurriedly got up and went to answer the phone.
I'm curious, why is she answering the phone behind my back? Could it be that my boyfriend called?
So when Xu Ling came back, I asked her.
saw her and said with a pale face: "It was from the police station, saying that it was 'haunted' over there." So I'm going to go back and take a look at it now. Also, I don't have a boyfriend. ”
This is definitely not a coincidence!
So I stood up and said, "Let me go with you, shall I?" After all, I have a little experience in this area and might be able to help you. ”
Xu Ling lowered his gaze and pondered for a moment before agreeing, "Okay." ”
After that, the two of us went to the police station together. As soon as I walked in, the light on this door dimmed.
This small sub-bureau is very quiet, shrouded in a solemn atmosphere.
It was supposed to be a place that made people feel very witty and righteous, but it actually gave me a feeling of being a mourning hall.
"It's too quiet, something is wrong." Xu Ling said.
I silently agreed and nodded.
When the two of us walked in, we saw that the police were gone.
Where can people go? So I turned my head to look at Xu Ling.
I saw Xu Ling quickly look around, and at the same time said: "The window over there is still open, and there is no trace of anyone moving the layout, and no footprints or anything like that have been found at the scene......
This is an inquest site, right? Normally, I would check it so closely, but there is no logic, and I will not rule out that there are no shells, bullets, and the like, and that there is no smell or anything like that.
I can only describe her in four words: observant.
I walked forward leisurely and thought in the direction of the big picture.
After all, this is my usual style of solving crimes, and I like to think from the big logic, and think from the perspective of the murderer.
So we compare the two of us: she's more like a forensic doctor; And I'm more of a profiler.
Although our starting point is completely different, the result is that when we go to one place, there is only one conclusion: the gangsters should not have been here in person.
And the first thing I thought about was computers.
Because according to normal logic, if I were that outlaw, the only way to avoid entering this place and make people feel "haunted" was to rely on the Internet.
It also reminded me of the weird scene when the keyboard would move.
However, in general, only hardware can control the software, and the software cannot reverse the control of the hardware device to do physical movements, right? Except for those lights and displays and things like that.
So that guy shouldn't be using IT technology.
I walked in front of one of the computers, and just as I was about to turn it on, I saw the display light up by itself, and the computer showed that it was turning on!
I was also startled at first, and Xu Ling, who was standing behind me, screamed directly.
But in the blink of an eye, I figured out what was going on. So I said to Xu Ling: "Don't be afraid, this may just be that the computer has been set up to automatically restart or something." ”
When I spoke, I was actually trembling and feeling palpitating. Even when I looked at her, my breath kept inhaling deeply, and I felt like I couldn't breathe it in.
