Then, I saw the old man slowly walking towards the trash can not far away, then squatting down and looking through the books Ma Xiaotao threw next to the trash can. Then a photo fell out of a book. The old man
I held it in my hand and looked at it for about a minute.
Then he picked up the photo, walked slowly to the elevator, and then slowly left Ma Xiaotao's neighborhood and got on a tricycle without a license plate.
Qin Nan and the three of them looked at each other, especially Ma Xiaotao. They couldn't help but feel a little scared when they thought of that person standing at the door of her house and looking at her for a long time.
"This old man should be the old man we saw on the night of Qingming Festival. The clothes he wore were exactly the same as what he was wearing that night, and he was also wearing the same clothes when he was in front of the police station.
Even if he is wearing a hat, I can still recognize him, and from the way he walks, I can tell that he is an old man in his seventies or eighties, and his legs and feet seem to be a little unflexible." Qin Nan analyzed.
"Yes, I remember that too." Wu Haotian said.
"But, is there anything wrong with this old man? He is seventy or eighty years old, and it seems that his legs and feet are not very flexible. In my opinion, he is just a wretched old man..." Ma Xiaotao said with some fear.
"No, it's not that simple. We don't know much about this old man. In our impression, he does look like a 70- or 80-year-old man. However, it is possible that he deliberately made up to look like a 70- or 80-year-old man and appeared in front of us.
Maybe in the sight." Qin Nan analyzed.
"What should we do now, arrest this old man? But judging from what we have learned so far, there seems to be no reason to arrest him. The crime of threatening public safety or anything else has nothing to do with it..."
Ma Xiaotao said.
"It is indeed very difficult. This old man seems to be playing psychological warfare with us, but... I think they must be a criminal gang. This old man must have other helpers. It is absolutely impossible for him to capture Zeng Li and the others alone.
of,
And there are so many puppets made of human mummies." Qin Nan said with a frown.
He looked at the time and saw that it was already about two o'clock in the afternoon. Then, after Ma Xiaotao finished copying the surveillance video, he ate some food and drank some coffee outside, and then hurried back to the police station.
They all only slept for two or three hours last night, and now they have little energy to analyze this case, and their minds feel confused.
Wu Fayi also felt exhausted after analyzing the puppet that looked like Ma Xiaotao. However, the dried meat on the puppet was indeed human flesh, and the puppet was indeed human blood, but no DNA could be detected. It was obviously
Specially processed.
Song Yi saw that the mental state of Qin Nan's group was not right, so he asked the four of them to leave work an hour early.
Ma Xiaotao naturally got into Qin Nan's car, while Wu Haotian acted as the driver.
"Xiaotao, be careful when you go home today. Remember to lock the door. If there is any noise, don't open the door..." Qin Nan sat in the passenger seat and ordered.
"I know, I know... I can knock that old man down with just one finger..." Ma Xiaotao said with her eyes slightly closed, as if she was very tired.
"Xiao Tao, I'm serious. You should be careful. The other person is probably not the same person. If something happens, call me in time..." Qin Nan said.
"Okay, uncle, I'm better than you, don't worry, I'll call you if anything happens..." Ma Xiaotao said with a yawn.
Not long after, she arrived at the door of Ma Xiaotao's community, then closed the car door, got on the elevator in a daze, and went directly back to her home. She seemed to have forgotten what she said at noon today about cleaning in the evening.
Qin Nan also returned to his home community quickly. He didn't know why. He always felt that the unknown puppet was revealing some information, but after thinking for a long time, he couldn't figure out the purpose of sending the puppet.
.
With a "ding" sound, the elevator door opened, and Qin Nan couldn't help but yawn, but then, when he saw the two puppets placed at the door of his home, he couldn't help but feel a chill on his back, because there were still two puppets placed at the door of their home.
Two dark red puppets,
The puppet's two pairs of eyes were squinting at them, with a smile that made people's hearts tremble.
Wu Haotian hurriedly walked over after seeing the two puppets, and then saw one of the puppets marked "19770707".
There were some threads sewn on the puppet's chin, which looked like beards. After Wu Haotian looked at Qin Nan who was slowly walking towards him, he didn't know what to say for a moment.
This puppet is the one Zeng Li mentioned when she came back the night before yesterday. It is all dark red, and there are a series of numbers marked on the puppet's clothes. There are also some threads sewn on the puppet's chin, which looks like his beard.
Qin Nan couldn't help but frown. He looked at another puppet leaning on the door. This puppet was also wearing the same police uniform as Ma Xiaotao, but his hair was very short. This puppet seemed to be Wu Haotian's puppet.
The two looked at each other, then took the two puppets home and closed the door.
Wu Haotian placed the two puppets on the ground, and they squatted down and looked at them for a long time without knowing what to say.
"Why did I receive puppets again? Last time I beat Zeng Li and Mo Dan's puppets with my hands. This morning I received Ma Xiaotao's puppets. Tonight I received puppets of myself and Wu Haotian. What is going on?" Qin
Nan analyzed in her mind,
These puppets are all related to the people around him. In fact, these puppets are not that scary to Qin Nan. After all, he has seen so many horrific corpses, let alone these terrifying puppets made of dried human flesh.
But if you think about it carefully, the places where these puppets appear seem too weird. The person behind the scenes, or the old man selling the puppets, seems to know their home address.
This is the scariest thing.
"It feels like the other party is playing psychological warfare with us..." Wu Haotian said with a frown.
"Well..." Qin Nan responded, but he didn't know what to say.
Now, the cousin and the others are missing. There is no doubt that the person behind this must have arrested them both.
He really didn't have much energy at this time. Since the two of them were arrested, these strange things appeared one after another, so many that he could barely breathe. At this moment, Qin Nan's mobile phone received a message from Song Yi,
The general content was to let him have a good rest. He also sent a team of people to search for Zeng Li's whereabouts and contact him if there was any news.
After seeing this news, Qin Nan relaxed a little and couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief. Then he said to Wu Haotian: "Haotian, let's rest first. When we wake up, we can find our cousin and the others. Now Lao Song is also helping us.
Find Zeng Li and others,
The other side seems to be playing psychological warfare with us and won't let a few of us rest."
Wu Haotian responded, and then placed the two puppets that looked very permeable into a cardboard box not far away. Qin Nan felt that they were still a bit permeable, so after sealing them with tape, the two returned to the bed and began to breathe.
Wake up and fall asleep.
In the dead of night, Qin Nan didn't know when he fell asleep. He had a dream, dreaming about his puppet...
