When the thick smoke billowed everywhere, the surrounding weeds shrank back to the ground as if they were frightened. I don't know if they were afraid of fire or smoke.
Even Jiang Yue didn't expect that these murderous weeds would show such fear, and he was a little stunned for a moment.
But this is a good time to leave.
"Walk!"
Jiang Yue called to the others, jumped down one after another, and quickly left this weird house before the fire started.
Sure enough, these weeds, frightened by the smoke from the fire, completely lost their previous ferocity and arrogance.
Several people rushed outside the house quickly and ran several streets without stopping. When they looked back, they saw that the house had completely burned down and thick smoke was rising into the sky.
Fortunately, it was a single building with an independent courtyard, so the fire would not spread.
Jiang Yue didn't care about all this and took a few people back to the place where he met the homeless man before.
Something is wrong!
Jiang Yue returned to this area and soon smelled a faint smell of blood nearby. Although the smell had nearly dissipated, there was still some residue.
Soon, Jiang Yue found the bloody scene.
The scene of minced meat was even more minced than the strips of meat at the pork stall, with almost no large pieces of formed tissue.
"Why is there no blood?" Old Han was a criminal police officer after all, and he could tell at a glance that something was wrong with the scene.
Logically speaking, this is a murder scene and there should be bloodstains all over the floor.
Even if the blood stains dries up, there should at least be obvious traces of puddles.
But apart from the small amount of blood stains on these pieces of meat, there were almost no blood stains in patches.
A person's blood volume will never be this small.
This strange scene is reminiscent of the situation in rural areas where pigs are killed first, bled and then dissected.
Could it be that this man was also bled?
"This doesn't look like a human technique." Old Han murmured.
During this period of time, he had seen too many strange incidents. He could tell at a glance that this was definitely the scene of the crime, but it didn't look like it was done by humans.
No matter how ferocious human beings kill people, there is never such a clever way to break the body into pieces without causing extensive bleeding.
Jiang Yue remembered something.
At this moment, a member of the Operations Bureau discovered something in the nearby grass.
When I pushed aside the bushes, I saw a roll of something lying inside.
"Hey, look, what is this?"
As the team member said this, he pulled out the roll and was about to open it.
"do not move!"
When Jiang Yue saw this, his expression suddenly changed, he suddenly shouted, stepped forward, and snatched the roll of things with his hands.
Then he threw the thing back into the grass.
This series of actions was obviously rough and abrupt, making the team member feel confused. If Jiang Yue hadn't rescued them from the basement before, he would have even felt that Jiang Yue was an offense to him.
But Old Han looked solemn: "Xiao Jiang, what's going on?"
"Don't touch that scroll. But don't touch anything similar, such as a picture scroll. Especially if the picture scroll is a woman in red, you can't touch it. Once you encounter it, you must stay away from it.
.The further away the better.”
"The woman in red?" Old Han couldn't help but ask, "What's the problem here?"
"Just don't touch it. There's something wrong with this place." Jiang Yue said, heading towards the place where he had previously knocked the homeless man unconscious and hid him.
As Jiang Yue expected, there was no trace of that person at the scene.
Jiang Yue walked around the scene for a few times and soon discovered that there seemed to be someone else at the scene?
Could it be that Zhu Yindong found out that he was betrayed by the tramp, so he sent a female ghost to cut the tramp's body into pieces?
According to previous observations, that painting was the medium through which the female ghost appeared.
As long as that painting appears, the female ghost will most likely appear.
The painting had been found at the corpse scene just now. Although it was rolled up, it was indeed at the scene.
So……
Jiang Yue initially thought that the broken corpses on the ground might be homeless people.
But he quickly judged that this was probably not the homeless man.
Although there was minced meat on the ground, one could still tell from the remnants of the cloth. The man was wearing black night clothes, which were of good quality.
The homeless man's dirty and tattered clothes were obviously very different from this.
If it wasn't the homeless man who died, who would it be?
Countless doubts lingered in Jiang Yue's mind, making the situation more complicated and confusing.
A lot of things must have happened here during his absence.
Has anyone else entered the Wumei community?
Is this tragic scene just a welcome gift from the Wumei community to strange intruders?
Although Jiang Yue had seen this kind of death for the first time, he was actually not unfamiliar with it.
When he first came to Wumei Community, at the kind old lady's house, she described the death of her grandson, which was very similar to this.
"Old Han, let's leave here first."
Jiang Yue calmed down, even though he knew something secret must have happened here. He finally controlled his desire to explore.
The purpose of this trip is to find Lao Han and his party.
This goal has been achieved. Although Lao Han and his team are missing one member, they can bring out three, so this trip is already worthwhile.
Old Han was obviously hesitant: "Xiao Jiang, we still have companions who have fallen into local hands."
"And our mission is a fatal order from the superiors. If we can't complete it, Han Chu will definitely not be able to explain it when he goes back." A team member also said.
Jiang Yue was speechless: "Is the mission more important, or is life more important?"
Old Han smiled bitterly and said: "When faced with a mission, sometimes we really have no other choice."
Jiang Yue said angrily: "You have to think about it. Even if you go again, you will still be like moths throwing themselves into the fire. You can't do anything at all. Do you know why they only took away one of your companions this time?"
"Do you think the other party is being merciful? I just don't want to break up with the authorities now. The Beauty Snake Gallery is on Xining Road. I can tell you the address clearly, but if you go there now, you still can't find anything. I guess there are still more
It is likely to fall into the opponent's hands again. Again and again, the opponent may not always have the patience."
"Xining Road? Xiao Jiang, so you have been to the Beauty Snake Gallery?"
"I haven't had time to go there yet. But according to my information, there is no evidence left at the Beauty Snake Gallery, and the people there have been evacuated. I guess I just left an empty nest for you. What you want to investigate must be
Unable to investigate."
"Alas! This is a headache. This case has forced Director Zhou to be very passive. It is said that the little girl who disappeared in the Beauty Snake Gallery is the only granddaughter of a tycoon in the Central and South Region. Although this tycoon
Although he has retired, he still has an influence that cannot be underestimated in the official circles of the Central and South Region. This is the most troublesome part of this case."
"Old Han, hearing your tone, I feel like you still don't understand who is teasing you."
"You know?" Han Yiming was slightly surprised. In fact, with his political wisdom, he naturally knew the twists and turns.
"The so-called retired tycoon was just moved out and taken advantage of. His granddaughter's disappearance was not just one day or two days ago, but it has been so long. Why did it only take these two days to make this case so sensational? Could it be that his old man had been there before?
Don’t you care about your granddaughter? To put it bluntly, if no one was involved to add fuel to the flames, this case would just be one of countless weird cases.”
"That old giant was just used as a prop to suppress your action bureau. But this method is very clever. Even if the old giant knows that he is being used, he will still willingly and even cooperate tacitly. Because he
I love my granddaughter, but I also want to save face. The case has been stirred up, and if you don’t take it seriously, wouldn’t it mean that you are telling everyone that he has done something wrong, and your action bureau will not give him face?”
What Jiang Yue said was exactly what gave Old Han a headache.
The retired giant definitely had no grudge against their action bureau, nor was he deliberately targeting them.
However, some people are adding fuel to the flames, some are trying to ignite the situation, and some are trying to clarify the problem here, tightly integrating the tasks of the Action Bureau with the face of the retired giant.
As a result, the situation has become very delicate. There is no room for the Action Bureau not to work hard to solve this case.
"Xiao Jiang, it seems that you know a lot of inside stories. In fact, this is not a clever method. To put it bluntly, it is a conspiracy. But we still have to take it."
"Since it is a conspiracy, this matter is difficult to handle, but easy to handle."
With that said, Jiang Yue pulled Old Han to a corner, away from the eyes and ears of the two team members, and introduced the situation of the Beauty Snake Gallery in a low voice.
"With this information and the fact that you have lost a team member, Director Zhou will surely be able to explain to the retired giant after we return."
Old Han learned that the water here was so deep, and that Zhu Yindong was such a powerful awakener that even Jiang Yue was not sure he could match him.
Such an awakened person is obviously not something they can handle.
After thinking for a while, Lao Han was finally persuaded by Jiang Yue and decided to lead the team out of Wumei Community first and return to the headquarters of the Action Bureau.
Just when Lao Han made up his mind, the two team members over there suddenly exclaimed.
Jiang Yue and Lao Han quickly looked over and saw that the two team members were jumping to avoid something as if they were ghosts.
Taking a closer look, not far from them, the scroll that Jiang Yue had thrown back into the grass reappeared somehow.
Moreover, the scroll had been opened, and it was chasing after them like a ghost.
The two people were obviously frightened by this strange scene, and they were avoiding it like the plague.
Jiang Yue's face was ugly, he was running like flying, and he chased after him.
He grabbed the scroll in his hand, took out his lighter and lit it on fire.
Exactly the same as the previous situation, the scroll was in the burning smoke, and a red ghost roared away, the roar filled with resentment and fear.
Jiang Yue watched the red ghost flee quickly with a dark face, but did not pursue it.
The drawing paper was burned to ashes and fell to the ground as if a ghostly wind swept across it. In an instant, the ashes disappeared between heaven and earth, as if they had never existed at all.
"Xiao Hang, was it you who took out the painting?" Lao Han stared and said in a stern tone.
Xiao Hang was the one who found the scroll in the grass before. After Jiang Yue forcibly took it away and threw it back into the grass, he felt somewhat unhappy and dissatisfied.
He didn't take Jiang Yue's serious warning seriously either.
While Jiang Yue and Lao Han were muttering in the corner, he took it upon himself to pull out the scroll again.
The other companion didn't even have time to stop him. The guy found the scroll and opened it easily.
In weird stories, almost all the sources of terror come from this impulsive curiosity.
This picture scroll is like a magic box. Once it is opened, a curse will inevitably appear.
After Xiao Hang opened it, he was startled when he saw the stunning woman in the picture. He thought to himself that Jiang Yue had not opened the picture just now, so how did he know that the picture was a woman in red?
Has he seen this painting before?
The style of this painting is a bit cold, but it seems to be nothing...
He had just turned this thought when the woman in red in the painting suddenly smiled strangely at him, her cold lips suddenly opened, and a long tongue shot towards his face, almost licking the tip of his nose.
.
There was no psychological preparation at all. Xiaohang was so frightened that he peed on the spot. As soon as he let go of his hand, the painting in his hand fell naturally.
But the painting that fell to the ground was chasing him like a spirit.
If Jiang Yue hadn't arrived in time, this guy would have fainted from shock on the spot.
Even so, he was so frightened that his face turned pale. Faced with Lao Han's scolding, he could not even regain the ability to speak a complete sentence.
Jiang Yue shook his head secretly, thinking how could he do the job of the Action Bureau with this mental quality?
Old Han pointed his finger in the air, obviously very angry.
This is the team member he led. Being so embarrassed in front of Jiang Yue, Lao Han naturally felt embarrassed.
Jiang Yue's expression suddenly froze. He stared at the man's neck for a while, then pulled up the man's wrist and observed it carefully.
After seeing it, Jiang Yue's expression suddenly became even more ugly.
"What's wrong?" When Old Han saw Jiang Yue's expression, he knew something was wrong.
Jiang Yue murmured: "Why don't you listen to me? Why do you have to touch that painting..."
After hearing this, Old Han knew that he was in serious trouble: "Is there something wrong?"
"Look at his wrists and neck. Are there blood lines? Look carefully."
Lao Han took a closer look and saw that there were indeed circles of thin lines on Xiaohang's wrist, but they were relatively faint for the time being, and you really couldn't notice them unless you looked carefully.
The same goes for the marks on the neck.
"What is this?" Old Han asked in a deep voice.
"Ghost thread, the ghost in the painting uses this ghost thread to kill the target. Seeing that there are no pieces of meat, I guessed correctly that the person must have opened the painting and disturbed the ghost in the painting. That's why
We ended up like this..."
The truth is cruel, but it is the truth.
Jiang Yue's words caused Xiao Hang to sit down on the ground, completely frightened.
Old Han couldn't help but wiped his sweat: "Xiao Jiang, is there still a chance to resolve this issue?"
