Chapter 248: The Grave Keeper
"I'm just ...... you" was only halfway through when I realized it would be rude to say it back. So he swallowed what he wanted to say back to his heart.
After glancing back at Xu Ling, I turned to the matter: "Uncle, in fact, I came here to ask you to prove to me, to prove that I had been to Wufeng Mansion that day, because you were there at the time, right?" I've heard that you often go there to pick up garbage. ”
"So what? Isn't it? He walked away, taking out three sticks of incense at the same time, to pay homage to another deceased.
Such an environment does make people feel panicked. Because the people on the posthumous photo, those eyes, a pair of pairs, seem to be staring at themselves.
And the position where I, Xu Ling and the old man are standing, one side is the storm, and the other three sides can be said to be surrounded by the eyes of their dead people, and there is nowhere to hide, which makes people feel very uncomfortable.
Xu Ling walked over, tugged at my sleeve, and said to me, "Okay, He Yang, I believe what you said, I don't need to confirm it, but let's go, right?" The expression on her face at this moment was extremely embarrassed.
"No, maybe the old man will know any clues? After all, he has been in the area for a long time. After saying that, I forcibly tore away her cold little hand and walked over to the old man.
Am I seeing less than this kind of environment? Well, it's not much, but after all, I have some experience. So I took a deep breath, puffed up my confidence, and followed the old man to a deeper place.
As soon as I walked up to him, I put my palms together and bowed to the deceased whom he was worshipping as a sign of respect.
After the salute, I looked at him and asked, "Uncle, did you go there to pick up garbage that night?" ”
"What's the matter with you?" He glared at me disapprovingly.
I bit my lower lip secretly, and then relentlessly followed him and walked away, saying, "Actually, I didn't go there that day to meet an ordinary friend." ”
I thought that if he said this, he would be very interested and would show surprise. But the truth was beyond my expectations, and he said indifferently: "What does that matter to me?" ”
Now, I had no choice but to look at Xu Ling, and then used Xu Ling's official authority to help interrogate: "Actually, we are criminal police, and it is very likely that the murderer was hiding in the Wufeng Mansion that day." At the same time, you're there too, so I doubt you now. ”
The old man actually smiled, this smile was extremely bitter, "Hehe, so you can't solve the case and you have to come to me to find an old man to take the blame, right?" ”
"Don't talk nonsense, we won't suspect you of being a murderer. Judging from the murderer's criminal methods, he should be a middle-aged man aged 25~40 years old, with a strong physique. Of course, it is not excluded that there is a mastermind, but the murderer must be such a man. Xu Ling said excitedly.
Hearing this, the old man seemed a little more interested. He turned his head to look at Xu Ling, but he didn't completely turn his face away, only staring at it with that cold gaze.
Xu Ling was panicked and said, "Why are you aiming at me like this?" ”
"It's nothing, I just think your analysis is interesting. Hehe, it feels like you're listening to a story. The old man turned his face away and continued to worship the dead.
Xu Ling is also the kind of person who is very serious when she does things, so when she heard the old man say this, she had to come over and argue about the male and female, opened her throat, and shouted excitedly: "What is a storytelling?" This is the analysis of our criminal police profession. ”
"Professional? How professional can it be? After saying this, the old man copied the remaining handful of incense and wanted to leave.
At this moment, I suddenly felt that he was not an ordinary person.
If it is an ordinary person, why would he dare to look down on the analysis of the criminal police? Moreover, it was so late that day, he was really so short of money, and he had to brave the rain to pick up garbage in the Wufeng Building?
No way! That excuse is completely illogical.
So as he walked out into the hallway, I didn't hesitate to rush over and block his way.
"What are you doing here?" He was frightened by my menacing appearance.
I stared at his old face like a torch, and frowned slightly, "Say, what did you go there that night?" ”
"Aren't you just picking up trash?"
"Hmph, picking up trash? In fact, if you work here, will you be short of money to spend? Is it possible to brave the rain in the middle of the night to pick up some garbage to make ends meet? After saying this, even I laughed myself. Because the truth is: he doesn't need it at all, and even if he dies, this cemetery will leave a small cemetery to bury him. After all, this is the yin virtue he has accumulated and deserves it.
He must be hiding something from me.
Maybe he knew that he couldn't hide it anymore, so the old man lowered his head and showed a distressed look.
"If you don't say it, I'll take you back immediately, because this matter is very involved." I furrowed my sword eyebrows as I gasped.
Because the humidity in the air is getting worse at this time, it should be as high as 80%, which gives me a feeling of breathlessness.
The old man stood indifferently in front of me for a while before he said, "Okay, since you want to know so much, I'll take you to learn some of the truths you want to know." ”
"You know what we're going to know?" I feel more and more that he is not simple.
Then the old man led us to the place where he lived. He lives in a very ordinary place, like a rural house.
While pouring tea for us, he also told me that there was a crematorium in the back; And the other side has been in the past, which is the cemetery.
I'm not interested in these, and Xu Ling is even more. She had been hiding behind me, and when she heard this, she couldn't help but tremble. It can be seen that she is indeed afraid of that kind of thing.
"Don't be afraid, there are no ghosts in this world." I whispered this to her.
But the old man suddenly interjected, bent over, looked up at me gloomy, and said, "No, there have always been ghosts in this world. ”
Suddenly, Xu Ling was frightened, and his whole body shrank to my side.
"Don't talk nonsense, don't lead people to superstition." I hurriedly scolded the old man, wanting to say that there will be no such thing in the world.
The old man smiled, this smile was a bit of a knife hidden in the smile, "You listen to me finish speaking." When I talk about ghosts, I am in the heart of people. In this world, this is the only place where it was clean before you came. ”
I suddenly thought of the reaction of the driver of the online car-hailing service, and then thought of the driver saying that this place was very unclean, so for a moment, I wondered if this old man would have something to do with the case? Could it be the mastermind behind it?
