Chapter 17 The Fall of the Dead Soul
I crossed the road quickly and walked to the place where the figure stood just now. I happened to see a black corner fluttering at the corner not far away.
Idiot, I will definitely catch you!
I accelerated my pace and walked over there. Before I approached, the corner of my clothes disappeared. When I walked to the corner, the figure turned his back to me in the depths of the alley, and his footsteps accelerated significantly. It seemed that he had noticed, so I ran without scruples and shouted to stop him. Unexpectedly, the figure was not so stupid that he ran forward at a faster speed and quickly disappeared into the alley.
I continued to walk along the alley. When I was about to get to the exit, I suddenly saw a luxury villa standing at the end of the alley. I was shocked: Isn't this Ouyang Min's villa?
Is that person just want to bring me here?
I can't help but have such a question in my heart. If so, what is his purpose?
Just when I was puzzled, Lan Jinxuan's figure appeared in front of me. Every time I saw her smile, I had a rare sense of belonging, which gave me a sense of comfort.
"How's it going?" Before Smurfette came to me, I began to ask about her "war results".
Smurfette frowned gently, turned around and glanced at the luxurious villa, and then said slowly, "It's strange. She just expressed a little surprise when she knew the news, and then there was a look of indifference, as if it was not her husband who died, but a person who had nothing to do with her. Is their relationship really so bad?
For Mu'anmian, I have my idea. She is not a person who is good at expressing her emotions, and she is also good at hiding her emotions, so she will not easily show her wounds to others. Maybe it was Ouyang Min's cheating that made her feel resentment. This resentment covered up the couple's love and put her in a calm state.
Looking at Lan Jinxuan's at a loss, I stretched out my hand, quickly stroked her bent eyebrows, and said jokingly, "Wrinkles are always pervasive. You must be strictly guarded."
Smurfette patted my hand rudely, covered her eyebrows and said to me unconvincedly, "What if I frown? You will be scared to death with wrinkles on your face!"
I said with a bad smile, "It doesn't matter if I'm scared to death. It's sad that I can't get married."
"That's not up to you!" Smurfette said angrily and stopped looking at me.
This seems to be familiar, but now is not the time for children to fall in love, so I said, "Let's go back quickly. There are still a lot of things waiting for us to go back to deal with."
Sitting on the bus back, I secretly glanced at the Smurfette next to me, but found that she took out a small mirror from nowhere and was checking her eyebrows.
Sure enough, she was a mouthful girl. I smiled and continued to look at the satellite TV on the bus as if I didn't know anything.
As soon as I returned to the police station, I immediately felt a sense of weight, because in a week or so, three people died in a row, and there was almost no progress in the investigation of the case. Whether it was from above or below, the whole office building seemed to be a little overwhelmed under this strong pressure. Even people who have nothing to do with this case don't want to talk and laugh. After meeting, they just nodded in a hurry.
"Wh! Be careful!" Lan Jinxuan's voice suddenly sounded. Before I could react, I bumped into a person, and my whole body stepped back a few steps.
How's it going? Are you all right?" Seeing that I was hit, Smurfette didn't care about me, but about the person who hit me, which made me feel angry.
Even if the blue beauty cares, the person who hit me didn't seem to stay on Smurfette for even a moment, but looked at me. To be precise, it should be staring straight at me, as if I had dug all the graves of their ancestors for eighteen generations.
This person's eyes make me feel cold, but that kind of hatred makes me strange. Is it just because I bumped him, or is it because the person he hates most in his life?
I was about to ask this rude guy, but he immediately turned his head and left in a hurry, and the hatred dissipated.
Inexplicable, why do I always meet such inexplicable people recently?
"That man is really. He didn't say sorry when he bumped into him." While complaining, I continued to walk to the office not far away.
"Maybe there is something urgent, but he seems to have just come out of our office. What's the matter?" Smurfette looked at the missing figure behind her, and then looked at our office in front of her and said.
"It should be that our office is so remote that ordinary people won't come here if they have nothing to do." As soon as I finished speaking, I pushed open the door of our office.
Everyone is there, of course, except for our Lord Jiang, who can't see the end.
As soon as I entered the door, Gao Jianning whistled. With that **/swang eyes, he knew what he thought at a glance. Sure enough, Xiaochu's mouth, like Gao Jianning, is not a fuel-efficient lamp. The two of them really smell like each other.
I walked over to the boy Gao Jianning and gave him a shudder without saying a word: "Look at how idle you are. You are tired of living and want to die, right?" Then he stared at the little frustrated who covered his mouth and smiled like the eunuch's chief.
"Who is the person who just came to our office?" Thinking of the man in the corridor just now, I changed the topic.
"He, from the forensic department, seems to be a mute, and no one in other office has seen him speak." Gao Jianning said first. I guess only extremely boring guys like him will inquire about this kind of thing.
"He is a student of You Qiaolin and also his assistant. He just came to send us Ouyang Min's autopsy report." Zhang Jiewei said lightly, professional and amateur can be seen at a glance.
"So it is. It's quite fast." I smiled. I didn't expect that You Qiaolin's student was a mute or a rude mute.
Zhang Jiewei handed me the autopsy report. I took it and took a look. The general result was the same as the previous situation in Liutaihe City. It was just in the last column, which made my heart tangled again.
The kidyl is still this thing. The report says that although Ouyang Min's cranial cavity has been charred, the composition of kidyl has still been detected. This can also be said to link the causes of death of Wang Dong, Tao Jiahao and Ouyang Min again. I still can't figure out why they all have the ingredients in their brains, which are completely impossible to appear in humans.
What I need now is not just an autopsy report. Compared with this, I think I need the professional knowledge of You Qiaolin. Perhaps only by talking to him face to face can I gain more. Things on the paper level are generally not very convincing.
Thinking about this, I turned around and left the office.When I walked to the place where You Qiaolin worked, I saw the person who hit me at the door, the mute in Gao Jianning's mouth.
I'm not here to ask him to blame him this time. Of course, I'm not the kind of person with a small belly. I nodded to him. I guess he also guessed my intention and signaled that You Qiaolin was inside, but that look was still inexplicably unfriendly.
I don't know if he is like this to everyone. It is certain that he has always been so vigilant that he must be so isolated that he has no friends. Because his vigilance is a wall, it may not be able to guard against the enemy, but it is enough to block all friendship.
When I walked into You Qiaolin's studio, the first thing I saw was not You Qiaolin, but a body that had been dissected naked, and You Qiaolin was collecting something on the toenails of the body.
I don't know if he found my sudden visit, and I didn't say anything. I just stood there quietly and waited, looking at the flesh and blood.
At this time, You Qiaolin's assistant came in with some tools. Without looking at me, he went straight to You Qiaolin and put the miscellaneous tools away. I took a look at those tools. Although there are many, they are placed neatly in a certain order. It can be inferred that he is a rather rigorous person like You Qiaolin.
I looked at You Qiaolin with a little curiosity, wondering where he came from such a rigorous, highly defensive, hateful mute in order to bump into people.
You Qiaolin's forehead oozed a trace of sweat. His focus on his work made the interference of the outside world stop beside his heart, and the silence of his heart slowly emerged from the eyes under the gold-rimmed glasses.
It was not until You Qiaolin took out all the subtle evidence from the deceased that he looked up and said, "Take these for identification."
You Qiaolin told his assistant, and then began to take off his gloves and walk over to me.
"What can I do for you?" You Qiaolin looked at me and asked faintly. His face looked very young, but it always made me feel that he had the power to see through people's hearts.
"Hehe, it's nothing. I'm just interested in your work and learn." I replied with a smile.
"What, do you want to change your job?" Originally, I thought I was here to consult the case. Hearing this answer, You Qiaolin couldn't help joking.
"I guess I'm going to transfer it to you. I'm afraid you won't accept me. The person just now is your assistant?" Seeing that the man just went out, I asked You Qiaolin.
"Yes, my student has been with me for a while. He is very serious about doing things, but it's a pity that he is a deaf-mute." You Qiaolin said and couldn't help sighing.
"Deaf and mute people? But I just saw that you were talking to him?"
I only heard Gao Jianning say that he was a mute before, but I didn't hear anyone say that he was deaf.
"Oh, he can talk, and it won't be too troublesome to communicate." You Qiaolin answered my questions.
"So that's it. I think he must be quite powerful. He can be your exclusive assistant." I sighed, and my previous dissatisfaction with that person also faded away.
"His ability is really good, and he will definitely be blue in the future." You Qiaolin was also very gratified when he mentioned his proud disciple, and a rare smile appeared on his face.
You Qiaolin cleaned up a little and turned around and said to me, "It's not convenient here. Go to my office if you need anything."
I nodded gently. It seemed that he could not only dissect the body, but also dissect people's hearts. He had already seen my intention.
You Qiaolin has a private office in the Forensic Medical Office, and all kinds of equipment are enough to support our department that we don't even know whether it has it or not. I'm surprised. It's just a forensic doctor. Do you need such a well-equipped office? Is there anything extraordinary about You Qiaolin that makes the Anyin Public Security Bureau, which is famous for being stingy, spend a lot of money on him?
After walking around You Qiaolin's office, I found a seat at will. I have always been like this. Even in other people's territory, I can live freely, but I will never allow others to talk and move around on my territory.
"You must have come to consult Ouyang Min, but isn't the autopsy report clear enough?" You Qiaolin sat down at the desk opposite me. He really only guessed half of my intention.
"The autopsy report is very clear, but what I want to ask is about something else." I looked at You Qiaolin and replied that this trip to Liutaihe City gave me a lot of gains, and also allowed me to speculate on the unnatural situations in this case from another perspective.
"What's the matter?" You Qiaolin's upper body leaned forward slightly, looking very interested.
"Have you heard of the corpse?" With the experience of You Qiaolin, I am very sure that he is not unfamiliar with the word "corpse".
"Of course I've heard that it's a widely circulated saying in Tibetan areas." After You Qiaolin stretched out his hand and pushed his gold-rimmed glasses, he put his hand back on the table and continued, "But that's just a legend. Is that what you want to say today?"
"Of course not. I'm sure you didn't think of what happened that night. You were a witness to Wang Dong's fraudulent corpse incident that night. Then followed by the Tao Jiahao's corpse fraud, which I witnessed with my own eyes. Finally, that is, Ouyang Min, I am 80% sure that he was out of breath before he came out of the hotel room. I know that You Qiaolin has not seen the video of Ouyang Min's Moulted Hotel in Qitaihe City at that time, but the trust between colleagues can make him immersive.
"Real?" You Qiaolin's expression was a little strange.
I nodded and said, "What I want to know from you today is the corpse."
"Actually, about the corpse, I just heard from the older generation a long time ago."
You Qiaolin held the pair of gold-rimmed glasses again and told me with a serious expression.
"A corpse is a walking corpse, that is, it means that people get up after death, and even endanger the living. In Tibetan, it is called 'weak man', which means that after some evil or hungry people die, the rest of the sins are not exhausted and they have regrets, so they cause them to rise up after death to complete the remnants of the evil life or seek uns of unsought food. There is a premise for the corpse, which can only be achieved in a state where the body is intact. In addition, the morgue is not a sudden event, but an omen. When the body is about to rise, the face will swell, the skin color will be purple and black, the hair will stand upright, and there will be blisters on the body. After that, the body will slowly open its eyes and sit up, then get up and raise its hand and run straight forward. All corpses have a common feature: they can't speak, bend down, turn around, or even turn their eyes. The terrible thing about the corpse is that as long as it meets a living person, it will 'touch the top' with a stiff hand, so that the living person will die immediately and become a corpse at the same time, but this strange and terrible effect is completely ineffective for other animals. For now, people often talk about five types of corpses, namely: skin, flesh, blood, bone and mole, and the degree of horror and difficulty of dealing with also increases in turn.
I don't know if it's an illusion. I feel that You Qiaolin doesn't feel terrible at all when he talks about these things. Instead, he is very interested, even like a kind of enjoyment. I guess it has something to do with his own profession. If he is not very interested in corpses, who would be willing to practice medicine?
I believe what You Qiaolin said, because I have heard some similar anecdotes about the corpse before, so I asked, "So what is the situation of the dead in our case?"
"It doesn't belong to it." You Qiaolin answered very simply.
"What is the reason for this situation? Or is there any other way to control their behavior?
There is no reason in the world. There must be a reason for its existence. Whether it is a fraud, a corpse, or a startling corpse, as long as the corpse moves, there is a reason behind it, even if I push it with my hand.
After listening to my question, You Qiaolin pushed the gold glasses and said with a serious expression, "After the case of Wang Dong and Tao Jiahao last time, I thought about this question carefully. The answer is - yes!"
