Chapter 131: Gimmick

Qu Mingcong glanced at Wang Wei, "What? Are you afraid?"

Wang Wei nodded solemnly, "Well..."

Qu Mingcong: “…………”

"What's that look in your eyes?" Wang Weiyuan said, "I'm not afraid of the crying girl. I'm... I was thinking of Cathead Girl last time. I was originally looking for a cat, but I found..."

Real corpses are much scarier than illusory legends...

Qu Mingcong flipped through the web page, "Ding Zhaolin's daughter has been dead for more than a year, and her body has long been burned to ashes."

"That's true..." Wang Wei hesitated, "But don't you think that the aura of our office has become a little weird recently..."

"What's weird?" Qu Mingcong was still browsing the web.

Wang Wei couldn't help but said: "That is to say...murder cases are becoming more and more frequent. Ever since you dug up that body on the river beach, almost every case you encountered has killed someone. It's really scary to think about it...ah,

Is this the legendary pregnant woman effect?"

Qu Mingcong looked up at him, "What?"

"Haven't you heard of it? It's the pregnant woman effect," Wang Wei explained seriously. "When a woman is pregnant, she will find that there are many pregnant women around her. Similar examples include when you buy a sports car and you are on the road.

It is easier to encounter sports cars, and when you carry an LV bag, you will find that the streets are full of LV - scientific research shows that when we have a certain characteristic, we will be more likely than others to notice those in the outside world who have the same characteristics as us.

Things, so in the same way, when our firm starts to come into contact with murder cases, we will naturally discover more murder cases! Ah! I suddenly realized it!"

"Look at this." Qu Mingcong ignored his tirade and clicked on the computer screen.

Wang Wei craned his neck to take a closer look, "...Ding Zhaolin issued a million-dollar reward to investigate the cause of his stepdaughter's death? The title was, tsk, specifically emphasizing 'stepdaughter,' wasn't it just to increase the topic?"

After reading the title, I continued reading and my brows gradually furrowed.

"It seems that this one-million-dollar reward...is a drunkard's intention and not the wine." Wang Wei smiled angrily.

On the webpage is a news article titled "Ding Zhaolin issues a million-dollar reward to investigate the cause of his stepdaughter's death."

The main content is that because there are too many people who have signed up, in order to avoid confusion due to the large number of people and thus affecting the investigation, Mr. Ding will distribute invitation letters in installments. In each phase, four people will be randomly selected from the applicants, and each phase will be two days long.

Weeks, regardless of progress after two weeks, applicants must submit the survey results.

Currently, this activity has been carried out for two phases, which means that Ding Zhaolin has accumulated eight investigation reports.

Although none of these eight investigation reports were approved by Ding Zhaolin, detectives who participated in the activities later could use them as a basis to continue in-depth investigations.

Qu Mingcong did a little more searching and found several more investigative reports that had been posted online.

"This is really... no privacy at all." He stared coldly at the few paragraphs of text on the web page, disgust showing in his eyes.

Wang Wei also joked: "If I were investigated like this after my death, I would be so angry that I would crawl out of the coffin."

Since we want to investigate the cause of suicide, it is natural to investigate the private life of the deceased, what school he went to, what kind of friends he made, and what hobbies he had, all of which are dug up for analysis and reasoning.

Qu Mingcong originally thought that he would have to wait until he met Mr. Ding to get these investigation results. Unexpectedly, a casual search on the Internet found several articles. It seems that the terms of participating in this event did not contain any restrictions on the leakage of intelligence.

Set limits.

"It should be a gimmick with a million-dollar reward," Qu Mingcong said lightly. "The urban legend of the crying daughter, coupled with the mysterious death of the stepdaughter, has added topics to the museum and brought visibility and customer traffic."

Wang Wei also lost interest and lazily replied: "It seems that I can't get the one million yuan, but fortunately, as long as I submit the report, I can get 20,000 yuan in compensation, so it's not too much of a disadvantage."

Qu Mingcong was also not interested in this kind of fun activity. The reason why he agreed to cooperate with He Qile was just to find out He Qile's true identity.

Qu Mingcong downloaded and printed out several investigation reports from the Internet.

While waiting for the printer to work, his cell phone rang. He looked at the screen and found that the call was from Qiao Yueying.

The last time they met, he left his business card for Qiao Yueying. He still remembered that he told her that if she discovered anything new, she could call him.

Qu Mingcong answered the phone with anticipation in his heart, "Hello..."

Before the greetings had even begun, the woman on the other end of the phone had already asked, "Why didn't you call me?"

Qu Mingcong was slightly stunned.

"You have met Shen Jing, right?" Qiao Yueying said, "I said, no matter what you find out after you meet, please tell me."

"Sorry, I forgot." Qu Mingcong pressed his eyebrows, "Shen Jing didn't find any results. At that time, I felt that there was no need to let this little thing affect your recovery, so I wanted to wait until more clues were found before calling. You were busy and forgot about it."

"This is not a trivial matter to me." Qiao Yueying's tone was particularly serious, "I have been worried because you didn't contact me! I thought your body had been completely occupied by her, so you were unconscious and unable to contact me!"

Qu Mingcong felt a little embarrassed, "...This kind of thing won't happen. My side...is safe for the time being."

"Qu Mingcong, you can't take it lightly." Qiao Yueying said solemnly, "You don't know her. She and I have been together in the same body for a year. She is the kind of person who will intensify her demands as soon as she tastes the sweetness. , greedy!"

Qu Mingcong thought that she was right, and now a small novice gift package could no longer send her away.

"Well, thank you, I'll pay attention." He politely expressed his gratitude and asked, "Have you discovered anything new recently?"

"No," she replied, "but my body has felt much better in the past two days. I will start investigating after I am discharged from the hospital."

Qu Mingcong's mouth twitched slightly, thinking that this was unnecessary.

But he couldn't think of a reason to reject Qiao Yueying for the time being. After all, this was a difficult knot in his heart.

"How did you and Shen Jing chat after meeting?" Qiao Yueying asked.

Qu Mingcong replied: "In that kidnapping incident, she was hit by a car like you and lost her memory of that time, so I didn't get any clues from her."

"Amnesia?" Qiao Yueying was silent for a moment on the phone, then sneered, "It seems Shen Jing is also a shell of her."

Qu Mingcong: “…………”

Qiao Yueying added: "The period of amnesia should be the time she occupied Shen Jing's body. As for why Shen Jing completely lost her memory, but I was able to retain this part of the memory, it is probably because of the kidnapping incident. The gangster suddenly reversed and crashed into us. The sudden incident caused a strong stress reaction in her... Yes, that's right, that must be the case. So when she appeared in my body, she was not fully awakened. As long as I checked If you know the time point when Shen Jing lost her memory, you should be able to figure out when she entered Shen Jing's body. Qu Mingcong, don't worry, I will help you."

Qu Mingcong: "………………………………"
