After settling this matter, Zhang Fan and Huang Qingyun rented another car at a car dealership not far from this car dealership. When the owner of this car dealership saw the situation, he didn't even want to pay for the rent, let alone the deposit.
Yes, in the end, Zhang Fan still paid the rent.
The two drove to the foot of Daiwang Mountain. There were five households at the foot of the mountain. They were all old-fashioned wooden houses. Due to the disrepair of the roofs, the tiles in some places had fallen to the ground, both on the ground and on the roof.
It was covered with a thick layer of leaves.
"These five families were originally occupied by people. Starting five years ago, one family would die suddenly on August 15th every year. Until August 15th last year, all five families died."
Zhang Fandao, this is the case of Dai Wangshan.
"Every year a murder occurs here, people from Jianfeng City's special department come to investigate the situation, but nothing is ever found."
Zhang Fan continued.
"If the person in the first family dies, the people in the other four families are still alive, the person in the second family dies, the people in the remaining three families are still alive, and so on, the special department of Jianfeng City will not follow
Did those who were alive at the time find any clues?"
Huang Qingyun asked.
"No."
Zhang Fan shook his head, "The living people didn't see anything, let alone hear anything. The dead people all had their heads cut off and died."
"Since so many people died here and such a big incident happened, why didn't those who were alive escape from here after the incident?"
Huang Qingyun asked.
"That's what's strange about this case."
Zhang Fan replied.
Huang Qingyun glanced at Zhang Fan, nodded in agreement and said, "It seems quite strange."
"The order of death of these families is from south to north. Let's investigate in this order."
Zhang Fan suggested.
"Well..." Huang Qingyun nodded.
Then, the two walked towards the house on the far left. Since this house had been abandoned for the longest time, it was also the shabbiest among the five houses. The glass on the windows was basically all broken, and the rafters and purlins appeared.
There are many locations of corrosion.
After Zhang Fan and Huang Qingyun looked at each other, they gently opened the door and entered.
"Crunch..."
A soft sound came from the hinge position, and a lot of dust shook off the door.
"Puff..."
Zhang Fan and Huang Qingyun subconsciously blew the dust, and at the same time, they used their hands to drive away the surrounding dust.
The furniture and appliances in the house are still very modern, including refrigerators, air conditioners, and color TVs.
Zhang Fan took out a photo, compared it with the scene in the house, stopped in front of the TV placed on the counter, tapped the ground with his foot, and said: "This is the photo of this family five years ago.
Place of death.”
In the photo, three people with their heads cut off were lying on the ground. The distance between their heads and bodies was five centimeters, with dried blood dripping between them.
The three people were arranged very neatly, from south to north, husband, wife and children.
"Brother Fan, where should we start next?"
Huang Qingyun looked at Zhang Fan and asked.
"Let's look for any strange places in this room. Is there anything strange, a special smell, or a special ornament?"
Zhang Fan replied.
The two of them had just arrived here, and their first task was to thoroughly understand the situation here, so that they would not make detours in future explorations.
The house was not big, with three rooms in total. It took the two of them about an hour to explore all three rooms, corner by corner, but they found nothing.
"Brother Fan, is it useful for us to investigate like this?
Will it be a waste of time?"
Huang Qingyun looked at Zhang Fan and asked.
"Of course it works."
Zhang Fan replied, "Although we didn't find clues from this house, it doesn't mean that we can't find clues from other houses. Even if we don't find clues from other houses, it doesn't mean that the situations of all the houses can be connected together.
Still no clues.
To say the least, we haven't found any clues linking these houses together, but the circumstances we investigated may very well become clues one day in the future investigation."
"Although it's a bit convoluted, it makes sense."
Huang Qingyun nodded in agreement. This belief is the key to success.
As the saying goes, opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. Only if you are fully prepared can you catch the opportunity when it comes. Investigating a case leads to the same goal through different paths. Only when you understand the situation clearly can you respond in time when there are clues.
Next, Zhang Fan and Huang Qingyun spent another five hours exploring the conditions in the remaining four rooms.
After six hours of intense work, the two of them were exhausted.
"Brother Fan, did you find anything?"
Huang Qingyun stretched his muscles and looked at Zhang Fan a little tiredly and asked.
Zhang Fan recalled the situation in these five houses, shook his head and said, "No, did you find anything?"
"I don't have that either..." Huang Qingyun shook his head in frustration.
At this time, it was already nine o'clock in the evening. Zhang Fan patted Huang Qingyun's shoulder and said: "Let's go to eat. Only after we have eaten and rested can our brains function properly."
The two drove away from Daiwang Mountain and came to the area around the hotel where they were staying. They found a specialty restaurant and ate some special meals. After they had eaten and drank enough, they returned to the hotel.
Zhang Fan had just returned to the hotel when his cell phone rang. It was Ouyang calling. It was already 10:30 in the evening. If Ouyang called at this time, something must have happened.
"Hello..." Zhang Fan quickly answered the phone.
"Xiaofan, do you have time now?"
Ouyang's rather serious voice came from the microphone.
"I have time, what happened?"
Zhang Fan asked.
"Another death occurred in Mr. Qi's yard..." Ouyang said.
"Another death?"
Zhang Fan frowned slightly, "Are they still from their own village?"
"No, they are the wizards sent by Ku Rong."
Ouyang said, "They all entered the courtyard, and the only one who survived was the third-level strongman. However, this third-level strongman was seriously injured. I am afraid that he will not be able to exert his third-level strength now."
"Why did they go into that yard?"
Zhang Fan asked.
"I don't know..." Ouyang replied, "Eh?
By the way, Xiaofan, are you in Pingshan?"
"No, I just came out yesterday."
Zhang Fan replied.
"Oh... How about I unite with a few people to control the only survivor who survived but was seriously injured?
