Lin Qiye's phone vibrated slightly. He frowned and took out the phone from his pocket.
It wasn't a phone call, but an unread message from an unknown phone number.
——Look at this video.
Seeing these words, Lin Qiye's eyes first flashed with doubt, and then he remembered something and became a little curious.
Except for a few people, very few people know Lin Qiye's mobile phone number. In addition, the night watchman installed software on his mobile phone that can block all spam and harassment messages, so only those who can send him messages in this tone are
only one……
Anqing fish.
The next moment, a message popped up.
This was a video. Lin Qiye clicked on it and frowned when he saw the picture in the video.
This is a video shot with a mobile phone, and the surrounding environment is the interior of the pub. The lens is placed on the bar counter, facing the backyard door. Both the picture and the angle of the shot are almost exactly the same as those in the video recorder.
It was pitch dark inside the tavern, with only weak natural light coming from the backyard. Looking from a distance, the picture was a bit blurry.
Immediately afterwards, a figure appeared in the camera. The man was standing in the backyard. Suddenly, his throat seemed to be strangled by a pair of invisible hands. His whole body was slammed into the wall, and then his feet were dangling in the air, bit by bit.
Being lifted into the air...
From his figure and clothes, Lin Qiye could recognize that the figure was An Qingyu.
An iron nail automatically floated up from the ground and pierced the figure's palm at a strange angle!
Then the second, the third, the fourth... When all four nails were driven into the limbs, the figure's fingers seemed to have been chewed by something, and they disappeared bit by bit!
Just like in the video!
When the ten fingers disappeared and only the roots were left, the last iron nail floated up and stabbed into An Qingyu's chest!
The screen disappears here.
At this moment, Lin Qiye's heart was filled with doubts. He knew that An Qingyu could not really be killed, but since the other party sent him this video, it meant that he had completely understood the secret!
Lin Qiye picked up his cell phone and started typing. Halfway through, he shook his head, clicked on the number and dialed back.
Soon, the call was answered.
"What did you find?" Lin Qiye went straight to the point.
An Qingyu's voice seemed a little surprised, "I thought the first sentence you would ask was: 'Are you okay?', didn't the video just now make you a little worried?"
"What are you worried about? Are you worried about being killed?" Lin Qiye said calmly, "I don't believe that dead people will remember my phone number."
"Well, it's really boring." An Qingyu's voice seemed a little regretful.
"How did you shoot that video?"
Until now, all Lin Qiye's reasoning has encountered a bottleneck, and that strange video is the root cause of the bottleneck.
The amount of bleeding after the amputated finger and the direction of the wound, these two doubts indicate that this case is far from as simple as it seems, but such a weird video makes everything... too simple.
"As you said, the content in that video really happened." An Qingyu's voice came from the other end of the phone, "However, it was treated in a way that couldn't be simpler, and this
processing, but made all reasoning go in the wrong direction.
That’s...play it backwards!"
Hearing these two words, Lin Qiye's body trembled, as if he thought of something, and a light appeared in his eyes.
"You mean..."
"That video is not about the process of a person being mysteriously killed, but... the process of a person who had his fingers cut off and quickly healed. I will send you another video, and you will understand after watching it."
An Qingyu hung up the phone, and the next second, another video was sent.
Lin Qiye opened it instantly.
In the video, An Qingyu's limbs were nailed to the wall and his fingers were cut off, but no blood flowed out.
Immediately afterwards, the muscles in his chest contracted, and an iron nail was squeezed out and flew to the ground not far away by the pressure of the muscle tissue.
Then, under the action of super-speed regeneration, Anqingyu's fingers grew rapidly bit by bit, and within a few seconds, they returned to their original shape.
The second iron nail was squeezed out of his body and bounced to the ground, then the third, and the fourth...
After the last iron nail hit the ground, An Qingyu's body lost its support and fell to the ground. Then he moved a step forward and made a horrifying movement!
The screen ends.
Lin Qiye slowly closed his eyes and took a deep breath...
He got it.
No wonder the angle at which each iron nail penetrates the body looks a bit weird! No wonder the fingers in the video were not cut off at once, but were eaten away bit by bit! No wonder the body of the deceased in the video was first pushed to the wall, and then like
It's like being dragged up into the air!
All of this... is put backwards!
The iron nails were pushed and bounced by the muscle tissue, rather than being penetrated into the body by the invisible person or the ability to control objects; the fingers grew little by little, rather than being eaten away; the body fell to the ground first, and then deliberately moved forward.
step……
Lin Qiye quickly dialed the phone back.
"That is to say, from the beginning, there was no mystery of being able to 'invisibility', 'control objects', 'cut off fingers', and 'interfere with electronic signals'. Everything in the video was actually the result of a person with abilities capable of super-speed regeneration.
A scene where the director acted on his own?" Lin Qiye frowned and said.
"That's right."
"But why did he do this?" Lin Qiye's voice was full of confusion, "Why did he go to such trouble to record this video? Why did he want to create the illusion that a mysterious crime was committed?"
"Before thinking about this issue, I think we should think about who is the person who did all this." An Qingyu said calmly.
"It's the person in the video." Lin Qiye narrowed his eyes, "That person directed and acted in this scene. In other words, Sun Xiao was nailed to the wall by the real murderer after the video ended...
...There is still one question left, that is, was Sun Xiao already dead or still alive when he was nailed to the wall?"
Immediately afterwards, Lin Qiye shook his head again, "No, actually this question already has an answer. Judging from Sun Xiao's body, the directions of the wounds were inconsistent, so he must have had his fingers cut off first and then nailed to the wall.
Above, the shrinking bleeding volume can also illustrate this problem.
If the completion of the ritual is the premise, he will definitely be killed immediately within ten seconds after his fingers are cut off. In other words, he will already be a corpse when he is nailed to the wall.
This means...near that tavern, there must be the first scene where Sun Xiao was killed!
No, that's not right!
There is a camera at the street intersection outside the tavern, so the body cannot be killed in another building and then transported into the tavern. That would be caught by the camera, so... the first scene should be in the tavern!
And there should be only one person who can do all this without anyone noticing in the tavern...
