Chapter 1863: Ghostly Beings

squeak...

Following Zhao Yu's opening of a large wardrobe in the east wing, everyone saw that inside the cabinet, there was actually a step extending downwards, leading all the way to the dark and gloomy underground!

"No way?" Zhang Ling widened his eyes. "There is a secret room here? This..." He looked at Zhao Yu in surprise, "How did you find out?"

Of course Zhao Yu saw it through the invisible perspective.

Before he entered the room, he found that the door was not locked. He was worried that there was an ambush in the room, so he not only used the detector, but also used the perspective instrument to check the place.

Therefore, he has long discovered that there is a secret space underground from the east wing, and the area is not small.

This secret room is just below the yard of my house, so even if someone builds a house outside, it will not be affected.

"Hush..."

As for Zhang Ling's question, Zhao Yu naturally had no way to explain it to him, so he could only preconceive it, made a silent gesture at him, and then pointed to the secret passage under his feet.

Naturally, this meant to warn him that the murderer might be down there, so it's better to talk less!

Zhang Ling and Ran Tao quickly took out their pistols, as if facing a formidable enemy.

However, the two of them were still a step too late. Zhao Yu was the first to sneak into the closet and into the secret room without a weapon.

"Don't……"

Zhang Ling was worried about Zhao Yu's mistake, so he and Ran Tao followed closely behind...

The secret room was located underground, and Zhao Yu entered it in a few steps, and at the same time turned on the flashlight on his mobile phone.

As a result, when he glanced into the depths of the secret room, his eyes suddenly straightened!

Even though he had made mental preparations beforehand, he still felt great shock and terror when he saw the horrific scene in front of him! !

But I saw an antique desk in front of the secret room, a man in tattered clothes, unkempt, sitting in front of the desk, motionless!

This man was dressed like a dirty beggar, but also like a poor ghost in a game. He was exactly the same as the last ghost described in "Ghost King Record"! ! !

Seeing this scene,

It also indicates that the last case of the ghost king case still happened!

However, unlike the previous ones, the last person who died was very likely to be the murderer himself!

really dead?

Zhao Yu forced himself to stay calm and shone the flashlight on the body of the deceased, but he saw that the body of the deceased was stiff, his face was distorted, and he was motionless, just like the other deceased in the ghost king case.

"Damn it!"

Zhao Yu cursed secretly, and looked at his watch. The time was 12:03, just past midnight.

Logically speaking, if he committed suicide at 12 o'clock, he should not have died yet. Could it be...he didn't wait until 12 o'clock at all, or...he died long ago?

Snapped……

With a crisp sound, the headlight in the basement was turned on by Ran Tao, and it was instantly bright.

The police officers were probably also mentally prepared. Even though they saw the gruesome dead, none of them exclaimed. Instead, they followed the rules and thoroughly investigated the scene to prevent any danger.

Zhao Yu turned off the flashlight and looked at the deceased again. Then he saw that on the desk in front of the deceased was a piece of rice paper for calligraphy. On the rice paper was written a line of calligraphy:

"I don't believe that people become ghosts after death, but they recognize the reincarnation of ghosts. All living beings have the nature of ghosts, and there is a final conclusion about good and evil!"

The 24 brush characters are vividly written on the paper, matched with the death scene in front of you, it is naturally chilling and very strange to read.

"Ghost... Ghost reincarnation..." Zhang Ling said with a pale face, trembling, "Aren't these words... from the preface of "Ghost King Record"?"

"Huh?" At this moment, Zhao Yu suddenly noticed something, and immediately stretched out his hand, and moved the rice paper a little away, but there was an ancient book under the rice paper!

"ah!?"

This time, everyone couldn't help exclaiming anymore, but they saw the three big characters "Ghost King Record" written in ancient traditional Chinese characters on the cover of that ancient book!

"This..." Zhang Ling widened his eyes, "There is indeed a copy of "Ghost King Record" here!"

Zhao Yu didn't think too much, and stretched out his hand again, and opened the "Ghost King Record". As a result, he only turned one page before he was suddenly stunned.

This ghost king record is actually a hand-copied version, and there is a striking "Tao" character on the title page!

"No way!?" Zhang Ling felt that he was going to be out of breath, "This... this book, can't it be Tao Yulan's one!?"

"When Tao Yulan was arrested," Zhao Yu said, "the only thing missing is his "Ghost King Record". Could it be..."

Having said that, Zhao Yu turned his gaze to the dead in front of him.

The deceased's face was ferocious, but it could still be seen that he was a young man with average appearance and not very tall.

Looking at his death, he was indeed the same as the other victims of the ghost king case, but this person was the one who sat upright among all the dead.

Even though his face was equally ferocious and distorted, it still gave off a calm and decisive feeling.

and……

Zhao Yu noticed something, and hastily turned on the flashlight, aiming at the dead man's feet.

As a result, he quickly saw a syringe thrown on the ground, and there was still a small part of white liquid in the syringe...

"This is..." Zhang Ling also saw the syringe, and immediately said to Zhao Yu, "This should be the injection containing tetramine, right?"

"None of the previous four deceased appeared," Zhao Yu said, staring at the syringe, "but they did appear here, which means..."

"Sure enough, it was suicide!" Zhang Ling nodded, "It seems that you really guessed right, the murderer really regarded himself as the last ghost! Ling Sha, Ling Sha, I really didn't expect it to be like this!"

"Team leader," at this time, Ran Tao waved to Zhao Yu from afar, "Come here quickly, come and have a look at this!"

It turned out that this underground secret room was not a whole transparent room, and there were some small partitions on the east side, separating the secret room into two small suites.

At this moment, Ran Tao was standing at the door of the first suite, waving at Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu turned off the phone again, came to Ran Tao, and looked into the suite.

Wow……

Zhao Yu couldn't help but let out an exclamation, but saw that the walls of the suite were densely covered with photos and some handwritten materials, all over the walls of the room.

In the photos closest to Zhao Yu, Niu Jinkui and Shen Wenbin can be seen, while Tao Yan and Lei Feiyi appear on the right side...

The photos were obviously taken secretly, so it can be seen that the photographer had secretly followed these people and investigated their details.

Going deeper, there were pictures of Mi Rou, the deceased himself, and even a group photo of them!

It can be seen that the fifth deceased did have a close relationship with Mi Rou...

"Captain," at this time, a police officer who had just entered the secret room shouted to Zhang Ling, "We found an electric ladder in the yard and an electronic device that can short-circuit the electricity from the shelf in the west wing. ..."

"Captain," said a police officer on the other side of the basement, "I found two large bags of powdery items here. Judging by the sign, it should be Tetramine!"

"Captain," another police officer shouted, "I found a lot of cosmetics, which are very similar to those painted on the face of the deceased in the Ghost King case..."
