Feng Yi checked for a while and found nothing more. He was just convinced that this case was definitely the work of ghosts.
Ye Yu, who was on the side, had been here several times before. There was nothing to investigate, so he asked: "Feng Yi, have you discovered anything?"
Feng Yi stood up and shook his head: "I am not a professional investigator, and I am not a practitioner like you. I didn't find anything unusual except for smelling a faint fishy smell."
"Then let's go and check out the second crime scene."
Ye Yu took the initiative.
"Um."
When the two left Wu Yang's home and walked on the road, Feng Yi asked: "Is there anything special about Wu Yang's birth date, zodiac sign, etc."
"I have specifically investigated this, and there is nothing special about it."
Ye Yu replied: "Furthermore, the second deceased was a woman over fifty years old and had nothing to do with Wu Yang. There was no similarity in their birth dates or anything like that.
It seems like two completely unrelated cases."
"oh?"
Feng Yi's sex was weird this time. He was a man and a woman, and there was nothing that could connect them together, no matter their birth dates or their zodiac signs.
If similar cases hadn't appeared all over the world, giving off a hint of conspiracy, he would have even suspected that the two deceased were unlucky guys who were randomly killed by ghosts.
Full of doubts, the two came to the scene of the second crime. Before entering the scene, Ye Yu had already told Feng Yi about the situation of the family.
The deceased's name was Ma Meilan. She was 53 years old. She had a stable relationship with her husband Xu Changze. Her daughter had just gotten married. Her husband was a middle-level leader of a large company. It could be said that the family was harmonious.
As for Ma Meilan herself, her temperament is much better than that of Wu Yang. Wu Yang loves gambling, drinking, and has violent tendencies after drinking. Ma Meilan is just an ordinary middle-aged woman who occasionally plays mahjong with her card buddies.
This is already the biggest black spot, and the stakes are not big, so it’s just a small gamble.
Who wouldn't be shocked and surprised that such a harmless middle-aged woman was suddenly murdered and turned into a mummy?
The only coincidence in this incident is that Xu Changze happened to be away from home in the days when Ma Meilan died. The police also notified him immediately. After Xu Changze came back, they interrogated him and investigated his recent travel trajectory.
I didn't find any flaws with the people I contacted.
Xu Changze is a middle school teacher with a very gentle temper. He rarely gets into grudges with others, and the couple rarely quarrels. If it is said that he was responsible for Ma Meilan's death, not many people believe it.
That's outrageous.
Not to mention that he had no relationship with Wu Yang, who died first.
Because the mummy case was of great importance, Ma Meilan's residence was still sealed. Xu Changze was taken into their home by his son-in-law and daughter. I heard that Xu Changze was deeply shocked when he heard the news of his wife's death. He looked seven or eight years older, too.
It's quite sad.
Ye Yu walked into Ma Meilan's house. Because Ma Meilan had just died, the house was much colder than Wu Yang's house. It was very cold, and the rotten smell in the air was quite strong, almost making people sick.
The most important thing is that her bed is still wet, and the place where she sleeps is soaked with water and smells fishy.
Like Wu Yang's family, Ma Meilan's quilt was also scratched with sharp objects before going to bed.
Feng Yi carefully observed the crime scene, looked at the water-stained wooden floor and sighed: "The amount of water is amazing, it seems like most of the bedroom has been flooded."
"Yeah, this is the weirdest place."
Ye Yu said: "With so much water, if it weren't for the water's mischief, there would be no more suitable conditions. But there are no salt particles in this water, so it doesn't look like sea water.
If it’s not sea water, where did this water ghost come from?”
The rooms where the two mummies were found were filled with a cold air and a rotten smell. Ye Yu had already concluded that ghosts were causing harm to people, but this matter was very different from his customary understanding, and he really couldn't figure it out.
After the inspection, Feng Yi found that the two scenes were almost the same. The only difference was that Ma Meilan's house was still filled with a faint and inaudible smell. It was a bit familiar, but for a while he couldn't remember where he had smelled it.
Thinking of this, he touched the wet bed, put his slightly damp hand on the tip of his nose, smelled it, raised his brows and said, "There's a problem."
"Um?"
Ye Yu's eyes lit up and he immediately asked: "Feng Yi, what did you find?"
Through this period of contact, Ye Yu still had a good impression of Feng Yi. He endured the cold atmosphere in the room and inspected carefully, but he was still very dedicated.
Not to mention that he dared to touch the murder scene with his hands, and he was not afraid of contaminating anything unclean. He was very courageous.
Feng Yi put his finger in front of Ye Yu and said, "Smell it."
Ye Yu smelled it carefully and said, "There's nothing unusual about it except for a bit of fishy smell, right?"
Feng Yi shook his head, sniffed his fingers again and said firmly: "There is still a subtle smell in it."
"what is that?"
Wonderful night whispers.
"Formalin."
Feng Yi said seriously.
Ye Yu's heart moved, and she went to the bed and smelled it before saying: "It's really a bit, but it's too light. Under the influence of the rotten and fishy smell, it's hard to smell it without smelling carefully."
"My sense of smell has been much stronger than that of ordinary people since I was a child, and I can distinguish even the most complex smells."
Feng Yi explained.
Ye Yu first nodded in understanding, and then asked curiously: "Hey, doesn't Wu Yang's house smell like this?"
"No."
Feng Yi said with great certainty: "Although Wu Yang has been dead for a long time, I am sure that there is no such smell in his room."
"This is strange."
Ye Yu held her chin and frowned: "Wu Yang and Ma Meilan died in exactly the same way, and the situation at home is almost the same. Why is there an extra smell?"
"Hard to say."
Feng Yi asked: "How are Ma Meilan and her husband Xu Changze doing?"
"They're all pretty healthy."
Yeyu replied.
"If this smell has nothing to do with Ma Meilan and his wife, it probably has something to do with this ghost."
As he spoke, Feng Yi squatted down and touched the damp wooden floor with his fingers, sniffed it and said, "Yes, this smell was brought by the murderer."
"Could it be two water ghosts who harmed people?"
Ye Yu put forward his own guess.
"Not necessarily, what if I accidentally got it this time."
Feng Yi didn't pursue this point too closely. He looked at Ye Yu and said, "A few water ghosts are not the most important thing."
Ye Yu was stunned for a moment, then reacted: "You mean, the source of the smell?!"
"That's right."
Feng Yi nodded with satisfaction and said: "Formalin is a very special thing, and it is difficult to get it in ordinary places."
"Most of the places that can be contaminated with this smell are hospitals or outpatient clinics."
Ye Yu said with a smile.
"Well, maybe this can be a clue for us to catch the mastermind behind this."
