Volume 2 Sacrifice Chapter 116 Rune Paper Kills
As night fell, several unknown people near Jianghai Cemetery, after confirming the safety of the ember tombstone, gave each other a gesture, and disappeared into the night in different directions.
These people are the 'Twelve Heavenly Nets' that sew corpses, they have always been elusive, but they are everywhere, they hide in the shadows, the purpose is to protect the embers, and the dark lamps that the embers are to protect.
After resting for two days, Yu Huo returned to the Jianghai police task force and reported the situation about the wormhole, especially when he learned that there were hundreds of heads hidden in the wormhole, the police immediately set up a special operation team and cordoned off the scene.
And blocked all external news, did not allow anyone to approach, let alone accept media interviews and reports.
However, the 'wormhole case' was too bloody and terrifying, which put the Jianghai police under tremendous pressure, especially the task force, and every investigator did not need to face unprecedented pressure.
At this time, it is necessary to reflect team cohesion, and there needs to be a strong enough reason for the team members to persevere.
Unconsciously, Yu Huo, a supernumerary member of the task force, has become the backbone of the big guy, as long as there is Yu Huo, the direction of the investigation is there, and there is hope.
The male deceased who died with Lin Wanyin in the Jianghai Hotel was restored to the whole picture of the deceased after the sewing technique of embers, and the identity of the deceased was determined after further analysis by the forensic doctor.
The identity of the deceased did not bring much surprise to the police, judging from the results of the identity background investigation of the deceased, the deceased was just a loyal fan of Lin Wanyin, and it was not much related to the previous serial murder case, maybe it was just that the murderer killed him together in order to avoid trouble, that's all.
In the face of the evidence collected by the police, it is not enough to dispel the public's doubts, that is, it is impossible to conclude the case hastily, but the police are a little unable to hold back, after all, the credibility of the government is eroding little by little.
The investigation of the task force once again reached an impasse, and they all wanted to solve the case as soon as possible, but they seemed to have been tied hand and foot, and they couldn't move at all, let alone show their skills.
The wormhole horror scene will inevitably cause a greater crisis, and all information that can be outside has been blocked, but the task force can't sit still at all.
In the previous serial murder cases, the number of dead stayed at one or two, but there were densely packed skulls lying in the wormhole, not to mention hundreds of people.
Not only that, the murderer not only killed so many people, but also used the skulls of these people to make flower pots and raise flowers, which shows the arrogance and provocation of the murderer.
If the murderer is not caught as soon as possible, it will be difficult for the people to be angry, this is the bottom line of the police, and it is also the red line that the authority of the police cannot be crossed.
The progress of the investigation stalled, and Yu Huo revealed a bombshell news, that is, about the 'Five Immortal Guards'.
This mysterious and terrifying organization has entered the police's field of vision for the first time.
"Five Immortal Guards? I seem to have heard of this organization, but I just heard about it, and I didn't have much information about it. ”
When Yu Huo mentioned the 'Five Immortal Guards', the members of the task force all cheered up, not because they were interested in this organization, but because they hoped that Yu Huo could bring you new clues, to be precise, a new direction of investigation.
After Yu Huo finished speaking, he wrote the words 'Five Immortal Guards' on the whiteboard of the brainstorming, three spicy-eyed words, which seemed to have nothing to do with this murder, but there was an indescribable connection.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have a bold speculation, but this is beyond the scope of the police's emphasis on evidence, and it is just a deduction, and it cannot be used as a method of investigation."
Guan Gong played a big knife in front of him, of course Yu Huo couldn't show off in front of these police elites, and seeing that everyone didn't mean to oppose him, he continued: "I am a folk craftsman, and I have seen a lot of these bizarre and strange things, and among the 'Five Immortal Guards', there are many folk strange people and strange things, everyone, have you ever heard of talisman paper killing?" ”
"Rune paper kills?"
Everyone asked in unison, under these rigorous training and subconscious education that everything must be evidence-based, all statements beyond the scope of scientific explanations are superstitious thinking beyond natural science.
However, the 'rune paper killing' in the mouth of the ember fire has a little superstitious color, especially in some practices that are out of the scope of human cognition, which cannot be admired, and even these events that go against common sense must be strangled in the cradle, and they cannot be allowed to take root and grow wantonly.
After Yu Huo finished speaking, he saw that he took out a piece of rune paper from the cloth bag around his waist, bit his middle finger, scribbled some runes on the rune paper, and then pasted it on the scarecrow that had been prepared a long time ago.
The scarecrow looked like a big living person, swaggering towards the crowd, so frightened that everyone didn't dare to breathe, and in a panic, they took out the guns they carried with them, and the black hole was aimed at the scarecrow, and there was a great possibility of a shootout.
"Everyone, don't be nervous, relax."
Ember snapped his fingers, only to see that the scarecrow's whole body was on fire in an instant, and he burned himself clean.
Everyone put down their pistols one after another, exhaled deeply, and the tense atmosphere suddenly subsided.
Ember Fire's demonstration just now is like a deceptive magic, but what puzzles everyone is that in addition to magic, why can the rune paper in Ember Fire's hand control a lifeless scarecrow?
"Marionettes?"
One of the team members, who had heard of the magic of marionettes before, was able to manipulate some inanimate things through the way of pulling strings, so as to manipulate some telekinesis or other performances that brought visual impact to the audience.
It's just that at the moment, Ember doesn't have a thread in his hand, and he doesn't have a direct physical connection with the scarecrow, just a strange piece of rune paper can make the scarecrow obey his orders, which makes everyone puzzled.
Yu Huo should not have made such a scientifically unexplained demonstration in front of the task force, but the task force has been investigating for so long now, like ants in a hot pot, and has not found the right direction of the investigation at all.
Ember did this to tell everyone that maybe it wasn't people who killed people, it could be lifeless scarecrows, or something else.
Prior to this, Ember was in the wormhole, and he personally experienced the attack of the big python controlled by the rune paper, and almost died in Shekou.
So why can't people with ulterior motives kill people through rune paper?
"I just want to tell you that there are many ways to kill people, some people use knives, some people poison, and some people kill themselves, and they may also kill people with knives."
Yu Huo is a folk artist, and he doesn't want to be involved too deeply, but the successive murders are involved, and the reputation of sewing corpses is involved, so it is necessary to cooperate with the police investigation and provide some necessary help.
"You mean, it's very likely that the Five Immortal Guards borrowed a knife to kill someone?"
Yu Huo didn't affirm it, but he didn't deny it either, because he didn't know much about the existence of the 'Five Immortal Guards', it was just a guess on his part.
"There are many kinds of murder with a knife, it may be a human killing, or it may be a ghost killing."
The more Yu Huo said, the more outrageous it became, which made the task force somewhat reluctant to accept it, in front of the police who sought truth from facts and paid attention to evidence, Yu Huo was always a nonsense warlock.
Inevitably the difference in concepts led to a direct conflict, and Yu Huo immediately took the initiative to apply for withdrawal from the task force, but promised to give the police some materials that were conducive to the analysis of the case.
After Ember came out of the police station, the Red Whisk Girl was already waiting at the door.
She got off work early today, and she didn't have too many friends in Jianghai, so she came out to look for Ember.
As soon as she got in the car, the red whisk girl had a charming autumn wave on her face, and she came up and gave Yu Huo a fragrant kiss directly, and it could be seen that her heart had already fallen.
Originally, the task of the superior instructed her to approach Ember and gain Ember's absolute trust, so that Ember could take the initiative to tell the whereabouts of the dark lamp, but she didn't want her to fall in love with Ember completely, and she did not hesitate to risk disobeying the orders of her superiors, but also to fall in love vigorously once, maybe this is the magic and temptation of love.
However, the Red Whisk Girl didn't come out to date Ember, but to meet someone.
"Master Lai, I want to see you."
"Lai Changqing? How did he get out of the customs? ”
As soon as he heard the name Lai Changqing, Yu Huo was a little apprehensive, after all, when he left the nest, there were many festivals.
After escaping from the nest desperately, he has completely offended the big red man around this ghost head.
When the enemies met, their eyes were red, and the afterglow couldn't imagine whether the next meeting would be a good thing or a bad thing.
Seeing that Yu Huo was a little worried, the red whisk girl touched Yu Huo's thigh and said soothingly: "Don't worry, Master Lai is not here to find trouble this time, but I hope you can cooperate with him and investigate Liu Wusheng." ”
The slender jade hands of the red whisk girl touched the legs of the ember fire, and the feeling as if they were electrocuted was really unbearable.
If it weren't for the rush, the embers would immediately pull over and knock it down.
It is said that where there are rivers and lakes, there is a struggle, and as a celebrity next to the ghost head, the struggle between Lai Changqing and Liu Wusheng, from the nest to the world, is unwilling to stop, it can be said that it is not lively.
"Investigate Liu Wusheng?"
"That's right, that's what the Oni-sama meant."
Yu Huo was a little puzzled, he was also a celebrity next to the ghost head, but why was he so worried about Liu Wusheng, could it be that Liu Wusheng had betrayed the nest?
"Lord Ghost Head suspects that Liu Wusheng has secretly joined the Five Immortal Guards."
The Red Whisk Girl added without the slightest reservation, which made Yu Huo understand the ins and outs of the matter, and it happened that at the moment he suspected that the murderer was from the Five Immortal Guards, it was better to take this opportunity to get close to the Five Immortal Guards, so as to take advantage of the situation to touch the bottom of the other party, it was not a godsend opportunity.
Thinking of this, Ember kicked the accelerator to the end and galloped away in the direction of Jianghai out of the city.
