Chapter 1856: Hurry

At 8:15 in the morning, in the Senna Left Bank Community in Beishan District, Andu City.

Today's weather is particularly bad, the sky is cloudy, the air pressure is so low that it makes people breathless, it seems that another heavy rain is brewing...

The command vehicle of the police station drove past slowly and stopped next to an antique building next to the main entrance of the community.

The building has a total of three floors, and the four characters "Chuantai Tea House" are written on the plaque. It is said that the tea house has a long history and is relatively famous in the local area, and this three-story building has a history of one hundred years and is a protected cultural relic.

Zhao Yu and Zhang Ling got out of the command vehicle one after the other. Both of them had solemn expressions, not only containing the exhaustion of fighting all night, but also the disappointment that they had not achieved results after their hard work.

Twenty minutes ago, the police received a report that a murder had occurred in this Chuantai tea house.

When the first batch of criminal police arrived at the scene and saw the deceased, they immediately called Captain Zhang Ling.

Because, they believed that this murder case should be the fourth case that everyone least wanted to see and had been working hard to avoid—the ghost king murder case! ! !

When Zhao Yu and Zhang Ling arrived, Ran Tao and Zhang Peipei had already arrived at the scene because of the closer distance.

Ran Tao greeted him outside, while Zhang Peipei had already led her forensic team into the scene for investigation.

Looking up, I saw that this century-old tea house is located on the right side of the main entrance of the Seine Left Bank Community, and on the left side of the main entrance is the sales office of the community.

I don’t know if it’s intentional by the builders of the community, or for some other reason, whether it’s the main entrance of the community or the sales office on the other side, they all imitate the appearance of a tea house, built in a classical Chinese style, and look like one. , neat and uniform, do not have a charm.

It's just that the construction of this community has just started, and behind the main entrance, there is still a large construction site full of tall buildings.

Through the main entrance, you can see that more than a dozen high-rise buildings have been erected there, and the tall scaffolding towers into the clouds. The workers are in full swing of the construction, and the sound of clanging axes and chisels can be heard everywhere...

"The overall demolition of the community..." At this time, Ran Tao, who had just obtained the latest information, introduced to Zhao Yu, "Because Chuantai Tea House is a century-old building and a historical relic, it has been preserved.

"And it was funded by the developer to carry out reinforcement and exterior decoration..." During the conversation, several people had already arrived at the gate of the tea house, and Ran Tao continued to introduce,

"The owner of the tea house took the opportunity to renovate the interior of the tea house. It is said that the decoration has been completed and is being ventilated and deodorized...

"Therefore, there is currently no tea in the tea house, and it is not suitable for people to live in, so the boss has not arranged for people to be on duty..."

At this time, everyone lowered their heads and went through the cordon and entered the tea house.

Without Ran Tao's introduction, Zhao Yu could understand that the murder case last night must have happened on the first floor of the tea house, because they had already seen the scene of the crime as soon as they entered.

But behind the counter on the first floor of the tea house, there was a man with a distorted face sitting crookedly. This man was dressed as a ghost, with horns on his head and fangs sticking out of his mouth. He was holding another in his arms—a woman!

"Wow!" Zhang Ling suddenly widened his eyes and exclaimed, "It's really exactly the same as the illustration in "Ghost King Record"! There's actually...a woman..."

"Team leader," Ran Tao said quickly, "don't worry, that girl is an inflatable doll, not real!"

"Inflatable doll..."

Zhao Yu walked closer and took a closer look, only to see clearly that the woman in the arms of the deceased was indeed a dummy dressed as an ancient woman.

There was a deep red on her neck, and the corner of the deceased's mouth was also bloody, which was indeed exactly the same as the illustration in "Ghost King Record".

Zhenmao has two horns on his head, long fangs in his mouth, and he only eats women...

"Group leader..."

When Zhang Peipei saw Zhao Yu, he immediately nodded at him. Needless to say, the corpse in front of him was the same as the other three corpses in the ghost king case.

Therefore, it can be determined without further detailed inspection that the present case is the fourth ghost king case, and the same murderer as the first three cases was committed.

And the person who represented the 9th ghost town rampant was killed!

"Team leader," Ran Tao said quietly to Zhao Yu, "the deceased was put on make-up, and it may take a long time to see his true face and know his identity.

"Look..." Ran Tao lowered his voice and whispered, "Should we post him online and let netizens provide his identity?"

"You're really sick!" Zhao Yu shook his head. "I even suspect that you are the murderer's accomplice? Can't you see that the murderer also wants to release the photos of the scene as soon as possible?"

"Oh..." Ran Tao scratched his head and explained embarrassingly, "I just want to know the identity of the deceased quickly! Boss..." He kept his voice down, "Don't forget, there is only one day left this time! Tonight, he will probably kill another one!"

"Well," Zhao Yu was naturally more anxious than anyone else, but he still said calmly, "Don't worry, just watch, the murderer will announce it in a short time!

"It's just that he just killed someone, and it's too late to release it now!"

"I hope," Ran Tao said, "I heard from Zeng Ke that if the murderer still posts on the same address, they can locate the location!"

"okay!"

Zhao Yu waved his hand to signal Ran Tao to keep quiet, then walked up to the corpse and examined it carefully.

However, after examining it for a long time, his brows were unconsciously frowned, and a strange feeling still crossed his mind.

Because, at first glance, the corpse in front of him was indeed exactly the same as the previous three, with a hideous and distorted face, dressed up like a terrifying ghost.

But... Zhao Yu found some details that were different from before if he looked carefully.

For example, the two horns on the head of the deceased did not seem to be symmetrical, the right horn was skewed to the left, and became parallel to the left horn!

It is estimated that the glue that fixes the corners is not glued firmly...

Also... the body of the deceased was skewed, the clothes were wrinkled and bloated, and there was even a tear on the left shoulder, which was different from the previous situation.

Looking at the inflatable doll in the arms of the deceased, although the doll is wearing ancient women's clothes, the clothes are a bit nondescript, more like clothes from a bridal shop, and the clothes are also crooked. look...

this……

Zhao Yu looked at these details seriously, and a strange feeling arose in his heart, as if the murderer handled the corpse in a hurry and in a hurry!

However, this was not the case in the first three cases. The murderer handled them relatively perfectly, and such a situation had never occurred before.

Why?

Why is the murderer in such a hurry?

Could it be... is it because he arrested people late and wasted time, in order to finish the killing scene on time, that's why he made it so hasty?

Or... When dealing with the corpse, something happened—an unexpected situation! ?
