Chapter 297

"He's dead."

I just got up and hadn't packed my things yet. The door was opened and the captain came over.

"Who?"

I asked.

"That young man."

The captain meant the rude young man who was at the old man's house that we visited yesterday.

He died in that villa.

And when he was dying...

"What happened?"

I was shocked. Could it be that he knew I went to that place last night, so he came to find me now? If that's the case, the traces left behind found me, and that person died again, then I wouldn't be able to explain it clearly.

"What else did you find?"

I asked nervously.

But at this time, the captain was anxious to solve the case, so he didn't find any clues to the matter, and he didn't notice my expression.

"By the way, do you know what else I found?"

"What?"

I had a bad feeling.

"We found that the young man and the old man who committed suicide by jumping into the river were father and son. So he must have lied to us."

The captain said.

"Ah?"

I pretended to be surprised, because just last night, I actually knew the whole story.

But I couldn't figure out how this person died.

Could it be suicide?

There's no reason.

"How did he die?"

I asked.

"It's still under investigation, but there seemed to be traces of fighting in the whole house before he died, and most of the things were destroyed."

The captain analyzed, "It's not murder for money, but unfortunately, the surrounding surveillance seems to be not perfect yet, so there are not many clues now."

I breathed a sigh of relief.

Two people died in two consecutive days, and the leaders of Lishan City naturally attach great importance to it.

But according to their investigation in the villa again, they really found something.

The old gentleman had actually been dead for a long time, but his body was intact, as if he was asleep, and the dead young man was not Mr. Gu's student.

"What is their relationship?"

I asked.

I really didn't expect this discovery, but the captain also had a vague understanding and couldn't be sure.

"Are there any other discoveries?"

"We also found a lot of strange things in that house, all of which are superstitious items, including some swords and paper spells for rituals, and..."

"What?"

I asked quickly.

"Do you know there is a book called Journey to the West?"

He asked me.

I was a little depressed. In this country, almost everyone except newborns doesn't know about it.

"What does this matter?"

I asked.

"It matters a lot."

There are other secret passages in the villa.

"And a large space inside is dedicated to the bodies of the monsters mentioned in Journey to the West." The captain said, and it seems that he has goose bumps all over his body when he thinks about it now.

"What? Body?"

I am a little uncomfortable with the names of these two words.

"Yes..."

He said with certainty, "It is a body, because the monster is a flesh body, a flesh body... and I am sure that I am not wrong."

He told me that the experts have now gone to the villa to find out.

No one can tell what is going on.

And according to the captain's description, those monsters and demons recorded in Journey to the West were exactly the same in shape, and they were not made of stone or jade, but seemed to be flesh. Soft and fluffy, some people were almost scared to death on the spot.

"What is that?"

I pondered.

And he said that almost all the monsters mentioned in the book Journey to the West appeared, as if it was a small museum, lifelike.

It seemed to have entered a demon country.

"It's really incredible."

The captain said, "This matter must be kept secret for the time being, and it cannot be publicized, at least before a conclusion is reached, don't tell it out."

I nodded.

"By the way, is there any news about Zhang Dachui recently?"

The captain suddenly asked me.

"No."

I answered.

"I don't know what happened recently, so many things happened, it's really strange." The captain sighed, "It's all caused by Zhang Dachui."

"By the way, Zhang Dachui's hometown is in Luo County, do you think this kid will hide in Luo County and not come out?"

The captain seemed to have thought of something.

"Are you still going to the county town?"

I laughed.

The captain didn't answer, but took a call and left. Judging from his expression, there should be the latest progress in the case.

For two consecutive days, no one from the captain was found.

He came to my shop almost every day. I thought he was here to monitor me, but after contacting him later, he almost became a friend I could talk to in Lishan.

I am still a little uncomfortable with his absence these two days.

Could he be sent out to investigate a new case?

"Mr. Lin!"

In the afternoon, when I was about to close the store, an anxious voice broke the silence around me.

There is still someone so late?

I looked back and saw that it was a policeman.

I am naturally familiar with this person. He is the policeman who often follows the captain. He stands behind me with a serious face.
