Otherworldly Merchant
Chapter 2,003: Five Ice Bodies
When I heard the situation was so serious, I had to get nervous.
“Asako, where are you? ”
“I'm in Captain Huang's car, I'm going to catch Lu Jian, and now I'm heading to the funeral home...”
“Okay, I'll be right there!” I dropped the phone in a hurry and shouted at Mr. Guo, who was busy in the kitchen: "Mr. Guo, something happened over there, I'll go check it out first.” He hastily pushed the door downstairs without waiting for his reply.
Two taxis in a row, and when I heard I was going to the funeral home this night, I couldn't get out of it.
When I stopped the third car, I opened the door and sat up, pulled out my wallet and hurried towards the driver and said, "Police! Do me a favor and take me to the funeral home. ”
The guy was obviously trembling, and then he braked sharply, and said bitterly: “Brother, I...”
“You what you! Get out of here!” I can't tell you how loud I am: “I'm on a special mission, I can't wait. If you refuse to load, this is your last night to live. ”
The guy also didn't know if he was frightened by my fake police status or by my temper. He immediately dared not speak again and started the car without a petition.
I rushed him all the way to the funeral home, and as soon as I got to the place, the guy didn't even want the money, he left in a hurry.
Time was urgent, and I rushed in, ignoring those little things.
The doorman stopped me and asked me what I was doing.
So I reinvigorated my technique, and as I walked inside, he lifted his wallet and said, “Police, check the remains of the comrade from the Bureau of Antiquities that just came in. ”
Listen to me, the doorman didn't dare to stop me, and he showed me the direction enthusiastically - after all, this is a funeral home, who is free to run in!
At first glance in the freezer, Li Mazi and three or four other policemen were waiting in front of the freezer.
“Dude, you're here.” Li Mazi turned around and greeted me quickly, pointing to a slightly bald police officer for more than 40 years. "This is Captain Huang of the criminal police team, Captain Huang. This is my brother, and this is the clue he found to be a grave thief. ”
Due to professional sensitivity, the police are naturally a little distrustful of us ghost manipulators, even if I just helped them solve a big case.
He approached, very politely said hello, reaching out and sweeping me up and down.
As you can see, he has some distrust, even suspicion, of me and Li Mazi.
I was too lazy to compare these to him, shaking hands and walking straight to the ice corpse.
There are five corpses, three armed police officers and two younger men dressed in civilian clothes, who should be from the Department of Antiquities.
All bodies, without exception, were frozen in thick large ice shells. If you don't know, you might think it was just dug up under the Antarctic glacier.
This is exactly like Uncle Zhao's second uncle!
It's just that these people seem to have died suddenly, and they still maintain their last moments of motion.
At a glance, you can see who's driving, who's watching over the antiquities, and even two people with half-cutted cigarette butts in their fingers.
"More than an hour ago, someone called the police, saying that it was on the suburban highway. A police car fell into the ditch, and when the traffic cops and 120 arrived, it was like this. ”
This is so bizarre that it is clear that it has gone beyond the normal case, especially since Captain Huang and several other criminal police officers have never seen it before and have a dark face.
But out of the dignity of the police, but not wanting to say anything that couldn't be done, Captain Huang saluted me: “Thank you very much, Mr. Zhang, for the clue you provided to the police. But it is our duty to capture the murderer. Look... it's not too early, why don't I send someone to give you both a rest? ”
It was obvious that he was anxious to solve the case, but he didn't want us to get involved again.
After all, our identities are a bit special. From a police point of view, a shady trader is no different than a witch. It is difficult to accept from either point of view if we are to remain involved and even lead the way in solving the case.
“Captain Wong, how many years have you been with the police?” I suddenly asked.
Captain Huang frowned and responded: "Twenty-five years. ”
The look on his face made him wonder what kind of question I was suddenly asking.
“Has there been a lot of cases in the 25 years of police life where scientific common sense simply doesn't make sense? Even now you don't understand why? ”
“Though your work and your beliefs do not allow you to have ideas other than materialism, many facts do. Besides, you've probably heard of Song Yang, right? ”
“Song Yang? You mean the famous public security advisor, Juvenile Divine Inspector Song Yang?” Obviously, Captain Huang is not unfamiliar with the name.
“His ability to solve strange cases relies more on the imagination and reasoning of extraordinary people than on ancestral scholarship. But the reason he was able to come up with such a fantastic, even ridiculous hypothesis in the eyes of outsiders, was because he believed that everything existed. ”
“There are things that don't exist if you don't believe them, like, look.” After that, I threw a spirit charm out of my hand.
Boom, boom, boom!
The freezer standing next to the wall pounded like someone was knocking inside, and then a few shadows floated out and their feet swung halfway off the ground.
There was a gust of wind, and it swayed behind us.
Captain Huang, along with several other policemen, had lost his temper.
I shake my hand again, and the shadows and voices are all gone.
“Captain Huang, can you say that what you just heard and saw were hallucinations? I didn't mean to instil any feudal superstition in you, but the world was. Just like in our current case, it is obvious that someone borrowed the Yin Spirit to sneak around. The killer is naturally a human being, but the murder tools he uses are just a little special. If you don't believe that his murder tools exist, the killer may go unpunished all the time and even kill more people. ”
“Neither from the perspective of the police nor from the norms of our insidious businessmen, this murderer must be allowed to do more wanton harm. Our sole purpose is to capture the real killer as soon as possible. In that case, I don't think there has to be any other material argument. Solving the case is the right thing to do! Otherwise, there are more than just these bodies lying here! I guess that's not what you want to see, is it? ”
Listen to me, Captain Huang seems to have just met me, looked at me again, silently said: “Well, then, according to you, what should we do now? ”
“It's simple." I mean the ice corpses: “They were all murdered by the shadow spirits, and the shadow spirits resided in the antiquity. All we have to do is find antiquities, and the real killer naturally falls out...”
“But the artifacts are gone. Where are we going to find them now?” Asked a younger policeman next door.
