Above the small door, the blood puppets that had been wrapped in countless spider ropes disappeared, and in their place were the corpse of the chef Gao Jian.

The behemoth's body was entwined with countless ropes and hung in the air, giving people an extremely terrifying sense of déjà vu.

"Yes...... It's Gao Jian. Lu Weiwei looked at Gu Chen fiercely and said in astonishment: "Isn't this the place where the blood puppet should appear?

"Oh my God, this ...... What's going on?How could Gao Jian be hung high in the air?" Zhang Xiaoyu's face turned pale, and his voice trembled: "Shouldn't you really be hung by a spider?"

"Don't talk nonsense. The bald Han Fei glared at her, and quickly retorted: "What spider is so powerful......? Don't scare yourself. ”

"However, even if what you say is reasonable, how did Gao Jian's huge body be hung in the sky?"

The fat woman Zhang Xiaoyu knows very well Gao Jian's weight, especially the tall body, that it is obviously impossible to hang a person in the air like a spider web.

And now, the place where the blood puppet should have been put suddenly hung with a tall building, but where did the blood puppet go?

This confuses everyone.

Gu Chen saw that everyone was panicked, and he also observed the surrounding environment left and right.

It can be said that Gao Jian is surrounded by countless ropes that resemble spider webs, and it is strange that he hangs in the air like this.

The main thing is how Gao Jian got up and how he was hung in the air.

But while everyone was frightened, Gu Chen used a strong flashlight to find Gao Jian's neck, which seemed to be wrapped around a rope.

"He died of suffocation as a result of being roped around his head. Gu Chen took a step forward and said.

"That's right. According to Gu Chen's prompt, Officer Wang also found the rope around Gao Jian's neck, and then asked Chen Kui beside him: "When you placed the blood puppet, how did you put it up, and did you use a ladder or what?"

"It's a small loft. Chen Kui said.

Gu Chen used a strong flashlight to shake the dense rope net a few times, and then asked again, "Can you take us to have a look?"

"Absolutely. Chen Kui was also panicked at the moment.

Chef Gao Jian died in the blood puppet position of the haunted house, which is somewhat creepy.

Everyone had walked back and forth on this trail many times before, but they didn't find any anomalies overhead.

Thinking about it now, many people are still a little afraid.

Chen Kui led everyone all the way forward, crossed a small road, and came to a place similar to a utility room.

Chen Kui pointed to an iron staircase and said, "To go up the attic from here, you need to climb this ladder." ”

"Do you want to climb up?" Seeing the scene in front of him, Gu Chen's brows furrowed slightly.

Lu Weiwei, who was on the side, also saw Gu Chen's anxiety, and couldn't help but say, "If the murderer wants to kill Gao Jian, wouldn't he have to climb this iron ladder?"

"But...... Gao Jian's weight, how was he brought up?"

"It could be the killer who led him to the attic. Gu Chen said.

"Lead him to the attic?" said Lu Weiwei and Officer Wang in unison.

Then the two set their eyes on Chen Kui, Zhang Xiaoyu, Zhang Xiaomei and Han Fei.

"That's right. Gu Chen walked up to the four of them and said, "If you want to hang Gao Jian's body on this rope net, at least it is impossible to bring Gao Jian up after committing the crime." ”

"Because Gao Jian's weight is here, even any of you can't carry him up this iron ladder. ”

"The only thing that could be done was to guide him up, strangle him with a rope, and hang him on a net. ”

"Officer Gu, then according to what you mean, how many of us can be murderers?" The bald Han Fei couldn't help but feel a sense of fear.

So he hurriedly looked at the other three, and couldn't help but say: "Impossible, we have always lived in harmony, how could we kill Gao Jian?"

"Besides, just take us as an example, if anyone stands in front of Gao Jian, it is not his opponent. ”

"Yes. Zhang Xiaomei also hurriedly defended herself: "Gao Jian is burly, the strongest one among us, with his physique, who can touch him?"

In everyone's opinion, Gao Jian stood in front of him, and it was like a mountain.

But it's just such a mountain, not to mention whether the people on the scene have the ability to kill him, even if they win Gao Jian, it's absolutely impossible.

However, Gu Chen didn't care about this, and also explained to everyone: "This is just a general guess I made based on the on-site environment, what the specific situation is, wait for me to go up." ”

"Then I'll take you there. Chen Kui said.

Gu Chen glanced at Chen Kui and said to Lu Weiwei, "Senior Sister Lu, give him a copy of the foot cover and gloves." ”

"No problem. Lu Weiwei happily took out the equipment requested by Gu Chen from the police equipment, and threw it directly to Chen Kui and said, "Put it on." ”

Chen Kui was stunned, but quickly reacted and said, "I know, I'm afraid of the traces of the pollution site, right?"

"Yes. While Gu Chen was speaking, he had already put on the necessary gloves and foot covers, stuck the bright flashlight on his epaulettes, and climbed the stairs neatly with his hands and feet.

Chen Kui didn't fall behind, and directly followed Gu Chen's footsteps and came to the attic together.

Officer Wang stood below and continued to wait, while Lu Weiwei couldn't wait to follow closely and came to Gu Chen's side together.

Lying on the attic, there is no guardrail at the edge, looking at the height of 4 meters above the ground, but if you are not careful, it is easy to fall to the ground.

But the good thing is that there is a rope net guard......

But Gu Chen was very puzzled, how the rope around Gao Jian's neck was put on.

After looking left and right, Gu Chen found that there was a faint light source gap on the side of the attic, forming a cuboid.

This gap in the light source is not visible from below the passage, and can only be seen from the attic.

And the height of the attic is only about one meter seven, and everyone has to bow down so that their heads don't fit on the ceiling.

Gu Chen cautiously walked to the light source, but found that it was an old wooden window.

Turning around, Gu Chen asked Chen Kui, "What are you doing with this window?"

"Ventilation. Chen Kui bowed his back, walked to Gu Chen's side and said, "Usually, if you want to decorate and clean something, you will open this window." ”

"Was it always closed before?" Gu Chen asked again.

"Yes. Chen Kui nodded silently: "Generally, it is opened once a day or two, mainly for ventilation, but it is humid on rainy days, so we generally do not open it." ”

"I see. After learning about the situation at the scene, Gu Chen didn't care about the corpse hanging on the rope net for the time being, but gently opened the iron bolt with his hand and opened the small window.

Suddenly, a bright light shone in from outside, and the light in the attic obviously made a qualitative leap.

At the same time, a slight cool breeze blows from outside, giving people a sense of comfort.

But Gu Chen's attention soon found that there were obvious rope wear marks on the edge of the small window.

Along the corners of the cement, all the way to the attic, the frame of the wooden window also had obvious traces of friction, which made Gu Chen wonder.

"Senior Brother Gu. According to Gu Chen's gaze, Lu Weiwei also quickly discovered these traces, and hurriedly asked, "Did the rope that hanged Gao Jian extend in from the window?"

"Yes. Gu Chen nodded slightly, and affirmed: "Judging from the traces of the scene, the rope that hanged Gao Jian did come from outside the window." ”

Pointing to the frame of the wooden window, Gu Chen said again: "Look here, there are obvious traces of dragging, and the signs of friction are very obvious. ”

"But how did Gao Jian get put on the rope?" Lu Weiwei asked again.

Gu Chen was suddenly silent for a few seconds and did not answer immediately.

Chen Kui, the owner of the haunted house on the side, looked anxious, so he continued to ask: "Even if the rope extends from the window, it is obviously impossible for Gao Jian to put the rope around his neck." ”

"And you have also seen it, with Gao Jian's figure, who can pull it? Not only can it not be pulled, but it may also be brought back by Gao Jian, Gao Jian's weight should be terrifying. ”

"I know that. Gu Chen just nodded slightly and explained, "This is the question I am thinking about now. ”

"First, how was Gao Jian tied around his neck with ropes?"

"Second, who has the strength to hang Gao Jian in the attic?"

"That's right. Lu Weiwei was also very sure: "Judging from the situation at the scene, Gao Jian should have been hanged in the attic first, and then the murderer sent away the rope and hung Gao Jian on the rope net that had been prepared for a long time." ”

"It can be said that all this seems to be planned, but the key is how could Gao Jian be fooled?"

There was a brief silence for a few seconds.

As for Lu Weiwei and Chen Kui's questions, Gu Chen would not be able to answer them for a while.

The main reason is that the existing conditions have limited clues, and they cannot support their further reasoning.

After weighing it repeatedly, Gu Chen looked at Gao Jian's corpse and said, "Don't say anything, let's do me a favor and get Gao Jian's body to the attic first." ”

"Good. ”

Chen Kui and Lu Weiwei spoke in unison.

Subsequently, the three of them worked together to grab Gao Jian's hands and feet, respectively, and pulled his body all the way up.

But as soon as he tried his strength, Gu Chen found an obvious problem.

Gao Jian was so heavy that even if the three of them worked together, it would take all their strength to barely drag Gao Jian to the attic.

And it was also necessary to untie the rope wrapped around Gao Jian's body so as not to get stuck in the corpse.

"Whew!" After successfully dragging Gao Jian's body up the attic, the three of them took a deep breath.

"This Gao Jian is also too heavy, isn't it? It's as strong as a cow, and it almost can't be dragged up. ”

Lu Weiwei wiped the beads of sweat on her forehead, and she didn't have a good airway.

Chen Kui explained: "They are cooks, and they are much heavier than us ordinary people in terms of body size, and I also advised him to lose weight, but Gao Jian couldn't control that mouth." ”

Glancing at Gu Chen, seeing that Gu Chen's breathing was steady, and it didn't seem to be affected by the force just now, Chen Kui couldn't help but say curiously: "Officer Gu's physical strength is really good, and he doesn't have any breath." ”

"The main thing is to exercise a lot. Gu Chen casually perfunctory and didn't tell the two, just when the two were about to drag Gao Jian's body to the attic, he secretly took two cans of energy drinks to make his physical strength and energy increase rapidly.

It can be said that without the help of his two cans of energy drinks, he may need to add another police officer Wang to drag the heavy Gao Jian from the rope net to the attic.

"Let's give it up. Gu Chen set Chen Kui and Lu Weiwei aside, directly turned on the strong flashlight, and began to test Gao Jian's body.

And Lu Weiwei on the side is also responsible for lighting assistance, providing support for Gu Chen at any time.

After a while, Gu Chen turned on the light source of the strong flashlight, looked up and said, "If you count it according to the time of death, Gao Jian should have died late last night, that is, when we left. ”

"When did we leave?" Lu Weiwei couldn't help but gasp, and said in shock: "That means...... The time of Gao Jian's death is very likely to have occurred when we left the Hanshan Haunted House, or when we haven't left the Hanshan Haunted House, is this how you understand Senior Brother Gu?"

Gu Chen nodded slightly: "That's pretty much what it means." ”

"Oh my God. Lu Weiwei was stunned, then carefully recalled the situation last night, and then said: "I remember, last night, after I experienced the VR scene with Senior Brother Gu, I didn't see Gao Jian in the Pansidong Restaurant. ”

"And until we left the Hanshan Haunted House, Gao Jian didn't seem to have reappeared, so from that time on, Gao Jian was most likely killed?"

"How...... How is it possible?" Hearing Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei's words, Chen Kui, the owner of the haunted house, was also taken aback, and hurriedly asked with confirmation:

"Are these things you talking about rigorous? The time of death, you can guess by just observing? Do you transport the body to the police station for examination before making a decision?"

I felt that Gu Chen's operation just now was too fast, and it seemed that Chen Kui had not even figured out the doorway, and Gu Chen had already completed the examination of the corpse.

In Chen Kui's opinion, this seems to be too hasty.

After all, Gu Chen looked so young, and it seemed a bit perfunctory to investigate the case like this.

Seeing that Chen Kui had an opinion on the examination of the corpse, Lu Weiwei was not angry, but hurriedly explained: "Boss Chen, don't worry about this, my senior brother Gu is the apprentice of Forensic Doctor Liu of the Technical Department of the Municipal Bureau." ”

"The autopsy techniques given to him by Forensic Doctor Liu are as skilled as my junior brother Gu, so you can rest assured that the time of death can be deduced according to the state of the corpse, and there will be no major problems. ”

"Yes...... But how did you deduce?" I felt that Lu Weiwei was blowing Gu Chen too badly, but Chen Kui still didn't believe it.

Gu Chen didn't explain too much, just said casually: "I speculated based on the various facial and physical characteristics of the deceased Gao Jian, which involves some professional data support, and you don't understand it after telling you." ”

Seeing that Chen Kui was stunned, Gu Chen hurriedly said: "What I mean, instead of seeking verification here, it is better to find out the murderer according to my autopsy results, are you right?

"I didn't ...... That's right, all that remains to do now is to find the murderer. Chen Kui seemed powerless to refute, but he seemed to be consistent with Gu Chen for finding the murderer.

Gu Chen loosened the rope around Gao Jian's neck and found the end of the rope.

"The entire rope around Gao Jian's neck is only more than one meter long, and it is obvious that after hanging Gao Jian, the murderer returned to the attic again, cut the rope short, and then secretly disposed of the excess rope. ”

Looking back at Chen Kui, Gu Chen said again: "Boss Chen, your haunted house is really weird, and this murderer is also a ruthless character." ”

Obviously, the murderer had already planned everything, so that the place where the blood puppet was originally placed suddenly hung with Gao Jian's corpse. ”

Lu Weiwei didn't know what was wrong, and hurriedly asked again: "Senior Brother Gu, why did the murderer hang Gao Jian on the rope net? Is it because of Gao Jian's weight?"

"That's right. Gu Chen nodded slightly, pointed to Gao Jian's corpse and said, "With Gao Jian's size, only by hanging him on the rope net can everyone not find it, or delay the time to find Gao Jian." ”

"This is not good for our police to handle the case, but it is obviously not good for the murderer, but the murderer is doing this, and there is no doubt that it is the best way to solve the problem of hiding corpses at present. ”

"Also...... That's right. Chen Kui couldn't help wiping the beads of sweat from the corners of his forehead, and said angrily: "If the body can be transported away, then the murderer will never hang Gao Jian on the rope net." ”

"Because the blood puppet props on the rope net are very light, it is convenient to remove the blood puppet, but it is obviously unrealistic to remove a behemoth like Gao Jian. ”

So the murderer played a game of stealing beams and changing pillars, transporting the blood puppet props away, and leaving Gao Jian here, which shows that this murderer is extremely cunning. ”

Glancing at Gu Chen, Chen Kui grabbed Gu Chen's arm and said, "Officer Gu, you must catch this murderer, you can't let Gao Jian die in vain." ”

"Don't worry. Gu Chen patted the back of the haunted house owner Chen Kui's hand, and then promised: "That's what we do, find out the real culprit, that's where our accusation lies." ”

"Even if you don't ask for it, we will give the deceased a satisfactory explanation, so you can rest assured. ”

"Eh, I'm relieved to have your brother Gu's words. Chen Kui also took a deep breath, feeling that it was really a disaster from heaven.

Looking at Gao Jian's corpse lying in the attic, Chen Kui asked again: "What should we do with Gao Jian's corpse?

"Nope. Gu Chen waved his hand and refused, saying, "The most important thing now is to find other useful clues." ”

"Gao Jian's body has now been found, as for whether to put it in the attic or carry it down, this is not important for the time being, the case is divided into priorities, and finding new clues is the main thing. ”

Chen Kui looked Gu Chen up and down.

After Gu Chen's remarks just now, Chen Kui suddenly felt that Gu Chen seemed to have his own set of complete steps for handling cases, and would not be affected by others. ”

In this way, Chen Kui was impressed by Gu Chen, at least in terms of Gu Chen's on-site disposal and performance, he was obviously an experienced veteran, completely incommensurate with his age.

With Gu Chen arranging the deployment on the spot, Chen Kui felt a little steady, so he could only nod and agree: "Okay, you can do whatever you say, then what do you need me to do now?"

"Let's talk about it. "Gu Chen has no work arrangement for him for the time being.

The three of them climbed up the iron staircase again, all the way to where they had been.

Officer Wang stepped forward and asked, "How is it? Are there any new discoveries?"

"Strange, very strange, probably the strangest corpse I've ever seen. Gu Chen lowered his head and said three "strange" in a row, as if he was thoughtful.
