Otherworldly Merchant

Chapter 53: Ghost Calls

If not, my guess is right.

She told me that she seemed to have been involved in a murder case and that she was still at the police station.

I instantly felt numb on my scalp and didn't ask. I took the location of the police station and rushed off.

I don't know why I'm so worried about her. In fact, I was so nervous, I couldn't think too much.

When I got to the police station, I called Yin Xinyue. Soon after, a middle-aged police officer came out and took me into the office.

Yin Xinyue was sitting in his office at the moment, holding his mouth and looking a little sad. After seeing me, she started crying, like a pear blossom with rain, and her tears were blurred.

I held her in pain and said it was okay. Don't cry. I'm here.

The officer handed me his card and introduced himself with a smile: "Hello Mr. Zhang, I've heard your name. My name is Li Yuntian, and I'm captain of the criminal police battalion. ”

“Hello, Officer Lee.” I shook his hand immediately: “Excuse me, what happened? ”

Li Yuntian smiled bitterly: “I don't know exactly how to put it. Anyway, this case is a bit evil! After all these years on duty, I've never seen such a weird case...”

Li Yuntian briefly described the case to me.

Around 5 a.m. today, police received a report of a particularly egregious homicide in the Binjiang district.

The police immediately went to the police and saw the scene of the murder on the third floor of the district.

A young woman, whose head had been cut off with only one skin attached to her neck, lay on a block staircase, her head facing down and holding the crawling motion. Her blood stained more than a dozen staircases red and shocked the scene.

The door of the deceased was open and the blood spread from the room. The police immediately identified this as a particularly brutal homicide and immediately protected the scene and sought all relevant clues.

As a result, they are finding the case incredible more and more...

First, they found through surveillance footage in the hall that the head had been cut off when the deceased crawled out of the house. According to theory, such a person must have died no longer, but only if she was still alive and climbed all the way from the house to the stairwell, that would be discouraging.

Secondly, the wound to the neck of the deceased was very neat, apparently directly cut off by a sharp machete. No murder weapon was found at the victim's home, not even the fingerprints of a third party.

What is even weirder is that at 4: 00 a.m., two hours after the death of the deceased, two more calls were made.

One of the calls is to Yin Xinyue, the other is to a strange number. Until now, however, the police have not found the owner of a strange number.

And the last person the deceased came into contact with was Yoon Xinyue, which is why the police brought Yoon Xinyue to take a statement.

I heard the creeps and the clothes on my back were all wet. The neck and head have only a layer of skin left to climb out of the house.

Is that a scam?

I looked at Li Yuntian in a bit of a panic: "Officer Li, how do the police decide now? ”

Li Yuntian frowned and pulled out a cigarette and handed it to me: “How do you expect us to decide on a case like this? This is just a headless case. There's no way to find out by normal means. Alas, it's a headache. ”

“Forget it, let's go!” Li Yuntian waved: “However, Miss Yin, please try not to go away so that we can summon you at any time. In addition, we suspect that the last call of the deceased was made by the murderer. The killer can't call you for no reason, please be careful for a while. You can apply for police protection if you feel it is necessary. ”

Yin Xinyue shook her head. She looked pale and had no mind to worry about it. After saying thank you, she walked out of the police station with me.

As soon as I left the police station, I asked Yin Xinyue, who died, what was her relationship?

Yin Xinyue said: "Kind of a girlfriend! Former college classmate, studying in the acting department, is currently interning at the company. ”

I said, "What did you do the last time you saw her? ”

“My girlfriend has a fondness for collecting calligraphy. Yesterday, I went to the antique market with her and picked up an ancient calligraphy.” Speaking of which, Yin Xinyue looked at me with a strange look: “The reason I called you here is because...”

“Do you think it's a shady thing?” I suddenly interrupted Yin Xinyue's words.

Yin Xinyue nodded: “Yes. ”

I took a sip of cool air and smoked a cigarette quietly: "So, you want me to help solve the case? ”

Yin Xinyue smiled bitterly: “I don't know, but she died in vain like this. I was worried that she wouldn't like it. She came to me as a ghost. Alas, I'm quite tangled up at the moment...”

I patted her on the shoulder: "Actually, I probably can't help it. It's not that I can't handle the shadows. It's really the police, especially the mainland police. It's impossible to rely on psychic events. They'll definitely get a bunch of experts to explain all of this with science. Do you think they'll believe you when you tell them you're sneaky? ”

Yin Xinyue nodded and said: "Forget it, I'm innocent anyway, I won't do anything wrong, I won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. ”

I patted Yin Xinyue on the shoulder and comforted her that she was fine. I'll take you home first.

When I sent Yin Xinyue home, I found out that this girl was living alone in a villa. I'm a little surprised, how could the secretary of an entertainment company possibly own a huge sum of money to buy a villa?

You don't think this girl... recognises her godfather? But I don't think it's likely, because I've never seen this girl hang out with any man, especially the older ones.

Yin Xinyue said that something had happened to her girlfriend. She was afraid to live alone and asked me to stay with her for a few days.

I thought she was really scared, so I nodded and agreed, just as I was experiencing the life of a rich person. It's not working, and I'll buy a villa in the future to fulfill my dream of a hanging wire attack.

Yin Xinyue was in a bad mood, so she fell asleep early and didn't eat dinner. I'm bored, sitting in the living room watching TV.

Seeing the morning all the time, I was sleepy when I attacked.

But I felt awoken shortly after I closed my eyes. When I opened my eyes in confusion, I found Yoon Xinyue standing in front of me crying and gently shaking my arm.

I woke up immediately and asked Yin Xinyue what happened.

Yin Xinyue handed me her cell phone in awe: “She... she texted me again. ”

When I blew my head off, I sat up and said, "Who texted you? ”

“My dead girlfriend. ”

I picked up the phone immediately, and there were two unanswered calls on the phone and a text message. The text reads: "Did you see my hand? ”

Grass!

I almost threw my phone on the floor: “Are you sure it's your girlfriend's number? ”

Yin Xinyue nodded: “Absolutely not wrong. ”

I stopped sleeping. I hurried to turn on the lights in the living room and comforted Yin Xinyue, saying that someone might be making a prank. The phone should be in the police station now. Did Yoon Xinyue offend any cops, so they made a joke.

Yin Xinyue shook his head hastily, saying that he had never offended the police.

I frowned and said, "Till dawn!" Go to the police station and ask. Everything's clear.

As a result, we didn't go to the police station, but we received a call from Li Yuntian first.

Li Yuntian's voice sounded a little nervous, and his speech was stubborn, which showed that his thoughts were very confusing.

But at the end of the day, I heard exactly what Li Yuntian was going to say. He said, "The victim's hands are missing."

That's exactly what the text said!

I took a deep breath and took a look at Yin Xinyue. Yin Xinyue was completely scared.

And Li Yuntian on the other side of the phone, after a period of emotion, suddenly said to invite me out for a drink.

I said I don't drink.

Li Yuntian said: “It's okay not to drink, I'll buy you tea. See you at the Qingyun Tea Club. ”

After that, Li Yuntian hung up without giving me any chance to refuse.

I put my phone down helplessly and said to Yin Xinyue: “Are the police not ashamed? I haven't said yes yet, so he offered to buy me tea...”

Yin Xinyue also suddenly understood, smiling embarrassingly at me: “Sorry Brother Zhang, I dragged you into the water again. ”

“It's all right.” I said, "It's always coming! ”

Both Yin Xinyue and I knew that Li Yuntian was probably really unable to handle it, so we decided to use the opportunity to drink tea to get help from my shady businessman!
