"Oh my god! Is this the sun? How can it be so bright?" Lu Weiwei was also shocked by this sun lamp installed at a height of more than ten meters.
The key is that the surroundings were still dark just now, but for a moment, it was like daylight, which made Lu Weiwei feel incredible.
Wu Xiaofeng also smiled and said: "This is the night lighting equipment equipped by Director Zhao for us. With this thing, it can directly cover the surrounding area of 100 meters."
"And the brightness is enough." Ji Zhe also added.
Officer Wang walked up to him with a smile and couldn't help but said: "Bureau Zhao is really willing to spend a lot of money in order to cooperate with us. I remember that our Furong Branch does not have this thing. Is it transferred from the city bureau?"
"Senior Brother Wang, you really guessed it right." Seeing that Officer Wang also knew the branch's family background, Ji Zhe also echoed:
"This thing was seconded by Bureau Zhao and Bureau Qin. Bureau Qin also said that if we need help here, just ask."
"As long as there are any in the police force, they will be brought to us. Bureau Qin only wants results."
"It seems that Bureau Zhao is under a lot of pressure, and Bureau Qin is also furious." Gu Chen looked at the sun lamp in front of him and suddenly felt that time was running out.
Seeing that everyone was getting ready, he walked directly towards one of the directions.
Lu Weiwei saw that Gu Chen was silent and knew the pressure on Gu Chen, so she quickly followed behind.
Yuan Shasha and Officer Wang looked at each other and immediately followed suit.
The four-person team disappeared into the jungle in an instant.
Behind is a light, and in front are the shadows of people and the dark forest.
Of course Gu Chen knew that the clues might be around this cemetery.
Yuan Jialiang's death will never be that simple.
But Gu Chen still doesn't know where Yuan Jialiang came from, nor how Yuan Jialiang knows the location of this cemetery?
Judging from the current situation, Gu Chen is more willing to believe that someone told Yuan Jialiang, and Gu Chen feels that this person who provided the information should be a local in Wangchao Town.
But now Gu Chen doesn't have enough evidence, and it's hard to judge.
Rustling!
Compared with the last search in Wangxian Valley, this time it was different. All police officers involved in the search were equipped with corresponding police equipment.
Moreover, everyone's search scope is also very limited. They focus on Yefen and search for suspicious clues everywhere.
Since the central area of Yefen is equipped with high-end lighting equipment, it brings a lot of convenience to everyone's search work.
"Senior Brother Gu." While Gu Chen was actively searching, Yuan Shasha suddenly stopped and turned around to call.
Gu Chen turned around and trotted over quickly.
Lu Weiwei and Officer Wang also followed closely.
"What's wrong?" Gu Chen said.
"Look." Yuan Shasha squatted down, pointed to a place on the ground and said, "What is this? A piece of bamboo?"
Gu Chen didn't say anything, but put on white gloves, picked up the bamboo pieces on the ground, held them in his hands and observed them.
Lu Weiwei squinted her eyes and suddenly asked in surprise: "What is painted on it? Why does it look like a ghost head? It's quite scary."
"Is this King Yama? Why does it look so sinister?" Officer Wang also felt that the totem painted on the bamboo slices looked like a human head with a sloppy beard.
Gu Chen looked around and found that only the inner parts of the bamboo pieces had totems drawn in black ink, and the corners of the bamboo pieces had traces of being carefully polished.
Looking back at the direction of the wild grave, it was less than 200 meters away.
Gu Chen squinted his eyes and asked, "Did the murderer lose it?"
"Who knows? But there are no footprints around," Yuan Shasha said.
Gu Chen looked around carefully. There were overgrown weeds everywhere, making it difficult to leave traces of walking.
"Look again and see if there are any other clues around." Gu Chen said.
Seeing Gu Chen speak, everyone said nothing more and continued to extend outwards, searching for traces around them.
About an hour later, everyone returned to the starting point as agreed.
At this moment, other teams that had been searching separately also came back one after another.
It can be seen from everyone's expressions that they don't seem to have discovered much.
Seeing that the last team returned to the starting point safely, Gu Chen asked: "Did you find anything?"
"No." A second-level superintendent shook his head: "There is nothing around. We have searched carefully enough."
"It seems like this is the only way tonight?" Seeing that all the groups had gained nothing, Officer Wang also suggested.
Gu Chen looked at the time and it was already 9pm.
Seeing that he had gained nothing in the mountains and only picked up a piece of bamboo with a portrait on it, Gu Chen could only order the team to retreat.
Looking at Zhang Wenxia next to him, Gu Chen said: "Sister Zhang, please let everyone carry the coffin down the mountain."
"Don't worry, I have already prepared the tools to carry the coffin, but I don't have enough manpower."
"We can help." Before Zhang Wenxia could finish her words, Ji Zhe volunteered.
"Okay." After receiving a positive reply, Zhang Wenxia said to several enthusiastic people: "Everyone, do yourself a favor and tie up the coffin and carry it down together. The empty coffin is not heavy."
"Come on, come on, everyone, get moving, go down the mountain early, and rest early." The village cadre also clapped his hands to remind.
Everyone was exhausted at the moment. Once they saw that they could go down the mountain, everyone immediately cheered up again.
Several experienced men tied the coffin tightly to two strong wooden sticks in an instant.
The four people carrying the coffin seemed effortless, but because they were walking on a mountainous road, some hands were needed to stabilize their position.
"rise!"
Just after the village cadre gave the order, the four people instantly used their strength to lift the empty coffin out of the cemetery in an instant.
Due to its age, there is a rotten smell in the air.
Although everyone was wearing masks, they seemed to be intolerable to the smell.
"Walk."
The village cadre said.
The four enthusiastic people carrying the coffin suddenly complained: "Village Chief, this work is too tiring, can you give me more money?"
The village chief was a little embarrassed and glanced at Zhang Wenxia next to him.
Zhang Wenxia nodded silently: "That's no problem."
"Okay, okay." Seeing Zhang Wenxia agree, the village cadre also replied readily: "I'll give you more money, let's go."
"Oh!" Feeling like they were making money, everyone suddenly gained strength and started walking down the mountain no matter how unpleasant the smell was.
But just as the coffin passed by Gu Chen, Gu Chen's eyes suddenly lit up and he hurriedly said: "Stop, stop."
"What's wrong?" said one of the enthusiastic people carrying the coffin.
Gu Chen did not reply, but walked to the side of the coffin and pushed away the soil stuck to the coffin with his hands.
In an instant, a human-shaped totem painted on the coffin appeared in front of everyone.
"Is...is this the ghost head?" Lu Weiwei recognized at a glance that the totem painted on the side of the coffin was exactly the totem on the piece of bamboo that everyone picked up in the woods.
Gu Chen took out the bamboo pieces from the transparent evidence collection bag and placed them on the side of the coffin for comparison.
At this time, everyone was surprised to find that the totem on the bamboo piece was almost the same as the totem on the side of the coffin.
"How could this happen?" Officer Wang was also stunned for a moment: "This...how could such a ghost appear on the coffin? What on earth is going on?"
Gu Chen quickly glanced at Zhang Wenxia.
Zhang Wenxia was also confused and said: "I really don't know this. You said this piece of bamboo was picked up in the woods, but what about the totem on the coffin? I really don't know. Could it be that it was buried during the burial?
Did someone draw it?"
"No." After hearing Zhang Wenxia's words, Gu Chen quickly denied this statement and replied:
"The totems that appear on the coffin were only painted recently."
"It was painted recently?" Lu Weiwei, wearing white gloves, also pushed aside the soil stuck to the side of the coffin and took a closer look.
Later, after taking photos and collecting evidence, Lu Weiwei wiped it hard with her hand.
It was soon discovered that a black mark was smeared on the corner of the totem.
"Really, this totem was painted recently. Could it be..."
Thinking of this, Lu Weiwei suddenly looked at Gu Chen and said, "Could it be that this was done by the murderer?"
"It's possible." Gu Chen crossed his arms and said thoughtfully.
"But why did the murderer do this? What is the meaning of painting something like this? Also, were the bamboo pieces we picked up in the woods left intentionally by the murderer? Or did the murderer drop them accidentally?"
Lu Weiwei said puzzled.
Gu Chen shook his head: "From the current point of view, both scenarios are possible, but I prefer that the murderer stayed here intentionally."
"Why?" Lu Weiwei was confused.
"The reason is very simple." Gu Chen pointed to the ghost head image on the side of the coffin and said, "This was painted recently. It looks like a ghost."
"As for the bamboo pieces in the woods, someone may have deliberately discarded them there. If Yuan Jialiang was killed, then our police will definitely be suspicious of this wild grave. After all, Yuan Jialiang has been nearby these days."
"But once we investigate the surrounding area, it may be easy to find the piece of bamboo, which is also a clue deliberately left by the murderer."
Looking back at Yuan Shasha, Gu Chen added: "Xiao Yuan discovered that the location of the bamboo patch is an open space with less weeds. According to the normal walking path, we will definitely pass by that end."
"I understand." After hearing what Gu Chen said, Yuan Shasha also nodded in agreement: "The murderer deliberately left this piece of bamboo on the only way for us to search, maybe to let us notice that the piece of bamboo on this piece of bamboo is
Is the ghost head exactly the same as the one on the side of the coffin?"
"Yes." Gu Chen nodded silently.
"But why did the murderer do this? What does this ghost head mean?" Yuan Shasha felt that she was almost confused by this pattern.
Zhang Wenxia came forward and thought about it for a few seconds before she suggested: "Gu Chen, why don't you take it back to Wangchao Town first? I'll ask acquaintances in Wangchao Town to see if anyone knows the meaning of this totem.
,how do you feel?"
"Okay." Gu Chen also had this intention. When Zhang Wenxia reminded him, Gu Chen said casually:
"You can ask Zhong Fakui from Wangchao Town. Bai Xiaolan said that he is the know-it-all in Wangchao Town. There are many things that he doesn't know."
"And when we were investigating clues about suspicious persons, it was Boss Zhong who provided some relevant clues that allowed us to locate Yuan Jialiang."
With a faint sigh, Gu Chen was also quite helpless: "But it's just a step too late. If we knew Yuan Jialiang's situation in advance, we might be able to unlock the secret behind Yuan Jialiang."
"Okay, Gu Chen, this is not your fault. Who could predict this situation?" Zhang Wenxia also knew that the situation at the scene was a bit complicated, but fortunately, Gu Chen had already found Yuan Jialiang like a cocoon.
This clue.
Just bad luck.
Afterwards, everyone simply cleaned up the scene and walked down the mountain.
When I returned to Wangchao Town Police Station, it was already 10:50 pm.
Everyone temporarily placed the coffin in the compound of Wangchao Town Police Station.
At this moment, Xu Feng, the director of Wangchao Town Police Station, also happened to be back. He learned on the phone that Gu Chen was handling cases in Wangchao Town. Xu Feng also rushed back to Wangchao Town after the meeting and was waiting here.
The arrival of Gu Chen.
Seeing the enthusiastic people collect their wages and go home, Xu Feng walked up to Gu Chen, stretched out his hand and said hello: "Gu Captain, hello Gu Captain."
"Director Xu." Gu Chen shook hands with Xu Feng. The two had met several times during meetings at the branch, so Gu Chen also knew Xu Feng.
Officer Wang said feebly: "Old Xu, you have a long meeting today?"
"Hey, isn't it time to catch up with the training meeting? It's my turn for this batch, so I went to the city bureau for training and meeting. I originally planned to come back tomorrow, but as soon as I heard you were here, I immediately rushed back overnight."
Although Xu Feng said this verbally, anyone with a discerning eye knew clearly that this was what Zhao Guozhi meant.
More than 20 police officers were dispatched from the criminal investigation team of the branch to Wangchao Town. Thinking about it, this movement is not small.
Xu Feng naturally knew it too.
"Old Xu, I'm really in trouble and need your help." As Officer Wang spoke, he took the bamboo piece wrapped in a transparent evidence bag from Gu Chen and said, "What is the ghost head pattern on this bamboo piece?"
What do you mean? Does anyone here know?"
"What is this?" Xu Feng was also startled by the totem on the bamboo piece, so he took it in his hand and observed it carefully.
After a moment, Xu Feng shook his head: "I've never seen it before. It looks nondescript and quite scary."
"We feel like this is a ghost." Lu Weiwei came over and said.
"Ghost head?" Xu Feng heard this and held it in his hand for a closer look. Then he clicked his tongue twice and couldn't help but marveled: "Not to mention, it's quite scary. It's not an exaggeration to say it's a ghost head."
"Just, where did you find this thing?"
"It was found on the mountain next to Wangchao Town, about 200 meters away from the wild grave," Zhang Wenxia said.
Since Zhang Wenxia had already communicated with Xu Feng on the phone before, Xu Feng also had some understanding of Gu Chen's actions today.
Looking at the totem in his hand, Xu Feng thought and said, "How about this? I'll ask some know-it-alls in Wangchao Town. Just wait a moment."
While talking, Xu Feng took a photo of the totem and sent it to a local group in Wangchao Town.
Seeing everyone gathered around, Xu Feng explained: "In this group, there are some opinion leaders in Wangchao Town. Maybe some of them know about it, but it just needs some time."
Looking down at his phone, Xu Feng said again: "It's getting late today, how about your criminal investigation team take a rest at our police station tonight? Director Zhao also greeted me and asked me to make arrangements."
"Is that convenient?" Yuan Shasha asked.
Xu Feng grinned: "What's so inconvenient about this? We have a lounge here, but we don't have that many beds."
"But it's summer now, so we do have some mats. If that doesn't work, I'll go to a nearby supermarket to buy some and we can make do with them."
After the words fell, Xu Feng said to Zhang Wenxia again: "Wenxia, I checked the inventory of our police station, and there are still 12 mats left. You can go to the nearby supermarket later and buy 12 more."
"Understood, I'll go right away." Zhang Wenxia saw that Gu Chen's criminal investigation team was staying at the police station tonight, so she hurried out.
Seeing this, Yuan Shasha took the initiative to invite her and said, "Senior Sister Zhang, let me go with you."
"OK."
The two chatted with each other and walked out of the police station door.
Seeing this situation, Xu Feng came to Gu Chen and whispered: "Director Zhao wants you to handle the case in a low profile and live outside. I am afraid of attracting attention, so I let you live in the office."
"The conditions are a bit poor, but our Wangchao Town Police Station will do our best to guarantee your three meals a day."
"Then I'll thank you, Senior Brother Xu." Seeing that Xu Feng was extremely polite, Gu Chen also smiled and replied.
Afterwards, other police officers took off their equipment and arranged them in two empty lounges.
One of the rooms here is a conference room. The desks were temporarily moved to one side, and the floor was cleaned and covered with mats.
The police officers fell down and fell asleep.
In the director's office, Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei, Officer Wang and Xu Feng were gathered together, waiting for the latest news.
From time to time, people in Xu Feng's so-called Wangchao Town opinion leader group would publish articles, but they had nothing to do with totems.
However, at 11:20 pm, Xu Feng, who was already resting on the table, suddenly heard his cell phone ring.
The ringing woke up Gu Chen and others who were also sitting on the sofa.
Xu Feng opened the answer button and asked, "Old Zhong, what? Do you know? Are you sure?"
After being stunned for a few seconds, Xu Feng looked at everyone with a complicated expression, and then said to the phone again:
"Old Zhong, why don't you come to the police station? I'll wait for you in the office. Yes, right now. Oh, don't sleep. The situation is urgent. There are things tomorrow. Yes, you can come over and explain it clearly."
After another pause for a few seconds, Xu Feng finally said, "Okay, that's it, eh."
After hanging up the phone, Xu Feng said to Gu Chen: "Team Gu, Lao Zhong from Blueberry Base said that he seems to know the origin of this ghost, but it's a long story. I asked him to come to the police station and explain it in person.
"
"Old Zhong from Blueberry Base? Zhong Fakui?" Lu Weiwei asked.
"Yes, that's him. There's nothing big or small in Wangchao Town that he doesn't know about." Xu Feng said.
Officer Wang nodded silently: "Well, we wanted to find out from him before, but we didn't expect that this old Zhong really knew about this matter. He is indeed the know-it-all of Wangchao Town."
"Lao Zhong, I guess, has a lot of connections and has been staying in Wangchao Town, so he knows everything about Wangchao Town."
"Sometimes, he knows more things than me, the director. When I have something to do, I usually ask him."
While talking, Xu Feng also started to make tea for Gu Chen and others again.
After all, after a hard day's work, many people are already exhausted and need tea to refresh themselves.
Not long after, while Gu Chen and others were still drinking tea, the office door was suddenly pushed open, and Zhong Fakui walked in with a familiar face.
Seeing that Gu Chen and others were also there, Zhong Fakui nodded to everyone: "Are you all here?"
"Boss Zhong, please sit down." Lu Weiwei stretched out her hand and said.
After Zhong Fakui sat down, he took a glass of water from Xu Feng and then said a little tiredly: "I do know something about the ghost head totem you mentioned, but it seems that many years have passed. I didn't expect it to appear again today?
"
"Boss Zhong, please speak slowly." Gu Chen adjusted the angle of the law enforcement recorder, placed it on the table, and pointed the lens at Zhong Fakui.
Zhong Fakui nodded silently and recalled: "About 15 years ago, in Wangchao Town, there was a female student who graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts. She was particularly good at painting and once contributed to a comic magazine."
"I remember that I went to her house to talk to her parents about something, and I saw this ghost head pattern in her study."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Did you see it in the study room?" After hearing what Boss Zhong said, Lu Weiwei said in disbelief:
"Could it be that the author of this ghost head is the female art student?"
"Yes, you can put it that way." Taking a sip of tea, Boss Zhong said again:
"I also accidentally entered her room. She was not at home at the time. I happened to be looking for her father to talk about the sales of agricultural products, because at that time, I was still working on green and pollution-free vegetables."
"His father is quite good at this, so I wanted to do it together with her father, so I went to her house and discussed it with her father for a long time."
"After that, his father wanted to stay at home for dinner and cook the food himself. I had nothing to do, so I went to visit her room."
"What does her room look like?" Gu Chen listened to Zhong Fakui's introduction and suddenly became interested in this female painter.
Boss Zhong raised his head and thought: "What does the room look like? Let's put it this way, the walls are covered with various awards, from various periods, densely packed."
"Besides that, there are her drawings, which feel like they are all over the house. At that time, using computers to draw was not so popular, so they were all drawn from manuscripts."
"I remember, I was sitting in that girl's seat, holding some manuscript papers on her desk, and I was immediately stunned by the portraits on the papers."
"Is it because of the painting?" Officer Wang asked.
"Yes." Boss Zhong did not refute, and nodded directly and admitted: "It's because of the paintings. I found that her paintings are extremely scary, and the characters in the paintings are creepy to look at."
"It feels like the painting is not a human being, but a monster, the kind that makes your hair stand on end just by looking at it."
"Is it really so scary?" Lu Weiwei heard this statement for the first time and couldn't help but asked him curiously: "Boss Zhong, so the ghost head pattern you mentioned was the one you saw on her manuscript paper?"
"Yes." Boss Zhong nodded: "I remember that the ghost head pattern is at the bottom of all the manuscript papers."
"When I saw this ghost head pattern, I felt that there was something wrong with this girl's psychology? Why did she draw such a twisted pattern?"
"Because she was away from home during that time, only her father stayed at home alone."
"At noon that day, we happened to be talking about something, so when we were eating, I casually asked him what his daughter was doing now."
"Then what did he say?" Gu Chen asked.
"He said that his daughter wanted to be a painter. I said, the painter is quite good, but she must produce decent works, at least have representative works, right?"
"I looked at the room and asked him again. I said that I had just visited your daughter's room. Those manuscripts almost shocked me. I said, why would you draw such a thing?"
"He said that his daughter seemed to have always liked drawing ghosts. He said that his daughter believed that ghosts are not scary, but the human heart is scary."
"It seems that this girl really has a psychological problem." Officer Wang took a sip of tea and asked again: "Is it possible that she was stimulated by something? So she vented all her psychological distortions on these paintings?"
"It's hard to say." Boss Zhong waved his hand and recalled:
"At that time, I also felt that this girl might have some mental problems. I also told her father about it. I said that a friend of mine opened a painting studio in the city and asked him if his daughter would like to be a teacher there."
"After all, although those ghostly patterns look quite scary, my painting skills are still very solid."
"Otherwise, how can a painting scare people?"
"It can be seen that this girl's painting skills are indeed somewhat unfathomable, so I gave her suggestions."
"Then her father agreed?" Lu Weiwei asked.
Boss Zhong waved his hand: "Her father said that her daughter seems to be very obsessed with creation and has always had a cooperative relationship with a comic magazine."
"That magazine seems to like her stuff, and the scarier the better."
"That's why his daughter went further and further down this road, but later her father discovered that his daughter's temper seemed to be getting more and more irritable, and she would throw things at home at every turn."
"Her father also thought about asking his daughter to see a psychiatrist to see if she could get out of her own psychological world, but she was ruthlessly rejected by her daughter."
After listening to Zhong Fakui's explanation, Gu Chen also had doubts and quickly asked: "What is this female painter doing now?"
"Already dead." Boss Zhong said.
"died?"
Hearing this, everyone almost spoke in unison.
"How did you die?" After all, Xu Feng didn't work in Wangchao Town back then, so he didn't know much about the situation in Wangchao Town, so he also asked.
Zhong Fakui narrowed his eyes and thought: "How did he die? I heard that it seemed to be due to emotional problems, and he finally committed suicide by jumping into the river."
"Boss Zhong, can you be more specific?" Gu Chen said.
"Well, actually...I don't know very well. I only remember that on the day of the burial, her parents cried very sadly, and I also went to comfort them."
"It was also during the subsequent chat that I heard his father mention that it seemed that it was because she fell in love with her boyfriend and fell in love with her. In the end, her relationship was traumatized, and she began to like ghosts and monsters more and more during the creative process.
thing."
"So since then, his daughter has gone from drawing fresh cartoons to drawing ghost cartoons. Moreover, the various images in such horrific cartoons have become more and more realistic, making people's hair stand on end."
"Later I asked her father if she didn't want to settle the score with that man. Her father shook his head and said that the man had also been here after hearing that his daughter committed suicide by jumping into the river and wanted to give her away to her former lover."
"But it's a pity that this man accidentally got into a car accident on his way back and died on the spot."
"Some people say that this is his daughter's resentment, which turned into a ghost and sought revenge on her boyfriend."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Haha, this is a bit outrageous?" Listening to this explanation, Lu Weiwei also felt that this kind of revenge was untenable.
But Boss Zhong said righteously: "Don't you believe it? I also heard what others said, saying that the man, after attending the girl's funeral, asked the girl's family for a relic that he wanted to keep as a souvenir.
."
"Because people cannot be resurrected, the girl's father didn't bother the young man anymore. Finally, he asked the young man to go to the girl's study and pick out something at random."
"Then what? What did this guy pick?" Gu Chen asked curiously.
Boss Zhong thought thoughtfully: "You may not believe it, but this young man chose a painting of this girl."
"And this sketch is the painting I saw in the girl's study that day, which is the kind of ghost head you sent me to see."
"What? You want a painting of Guitou?" Hearing this, Lu Weiwei was completely stunned and said in disbelief:
"This man is quite interesting. How can he like this kind of thing?"
"I don't know." Boss Zhong shook his head, but said righteously:
"I also heard from the girl's father that he seemed a little mentally weak about this drawing of a ghost head, but this young man didn't care."
"Therefore, the young man left with the girl's painting of a ghost head. Since then, he has not appeared again."
"And the girl's parents later went to other places to make a living. At first, they came back once a year, and later every few years."
"Although it has been many years since this incident, this ghost-headed pattern is still deeply memorable to me."
"So, when Director Xu sent this pattern over, I recognized it at a glance. This was the ghost head drawn by that girl back then. Phew!"
At the end of the sentence, Boss Zhong also took a long breath and felt that things were a little strange.
At this moment, Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei, Officer Wang and Xu Feng all looked at each other.
I feel like when Zhong Fakui said this, everyone was even more confused.
I don’t understand why the ghost head pattern appears in Wangchao Town after it has disappeared for 15 years?
But just as everyone was doubting, Gu Chen suddenly remembered something, so he quickly asked Zhong Fakui: "Boss Zhong, do you think that girl committed suicide by jumping into the river 15 years ago, right?"
"Yes." Boss Zhong nodded silently to acknowledge.
"That's weird." Gu Chen also crossed his arms and lay on the sofa, thinking back and said: "The girl who painted the ghost head pattern died 15 years ago."
"And the fire that happened in the sponge factory happened exactly 15 years ago."
"Could it be that there is some connection between the two?" Lu Weiwei also thought of the foreign man who was burned to death in the sponge factory based on Gu Chen's statement.
Boss Zhong shook his head: "I don't know about this. After all, that person is a foreigner, and his identity has not been found out yet."
"And this girl, she is a local of our Wangchao Town. There seems to be no connection between the two."
"That might be some coincidence in time." Gu Chen said.
"It can be understood that way." Boss Zhong doesn't know what to say now.
Officer Wang also put his hands behind his back. After walking back and forth twice, he looked at Zhong Fakui and said:
"Boss Zhong, are you sure that the ghost head you saw is absolutely the girl's drawing? It can't be wrong, right? After all, 15 years have passed. If the pattern is wrong, then the direction of our investigation will be different.
It will go astray."
"No." Seeing Officer Wang refuting himself, Zhong Fakui also affirmed:
"I have only seen this pattern once in my life in that girl's study, and it left a deep impression on me."
"Especially the symmetrical proportions of the head, beard and hair in this pattern are perfect."
"It's such a pattern, how could I remember it wrong? I swear I didn't make a mistake."
Seeing that Zhong Fakui even swore, Gu Chen believed that maybe Zhong Fakui was right and that he might not have made a mistake.
Gu Chen, who was thinking with his hands on his chest and his chin on his head, muttered:
"According to this theory, the girl committed suicide by jumping into the river. Finally, the girl's ex-boyfriend came to see her off."
"Before leaving, I even took away the drawing of the ghost head. After so many years, the only people who know about the ghost head are the girl's parents and her ex-boyfriend."
Shaking his head, Gu Chen added, "But what does this have to do with the pattern we found on the side of the coffin on the mountain?"
"The girl who committed suicide had the ghost head pattern taken away by her ex-boyfriend 15 years ago."
"But the ghost head pattern on the coffin was obviously painted not long ago."
"And the ghost head pattern on the bamboo pieces found in the woods was only painted recently."
"It can be seen that this person who is pretending to be a ghost may want to use this ghost head pattern to leave us some necessary clues without revealing anything."
"Junior Brother Gu." After hearing what Gu Chen said, Lu Weiwei also said in disbelief:
"You mean, someone is going to cause trouble? Deliberately using the ghost head pattern to remind us?"
"It's very possible." Gu Chen crossed his fingers and said in retrospect:
"Think about it, this ghost head pattern was taken away by her ex-boyfriend 15 years ago and has disappeared ever since."
"But now, this ghost head pattern is back, so I can understand that the appearance of this ghost head pattern is indeed related to her ex-boyfriend."
"Did her ex-boyfriend draw it?" Police Officer Wang thought for a few seconds, then immediately denied it: "That's not right? It's been 15 years, what is this girl's ex-boyfriend doing here again?"
"The girl's departure seems to have made him lose the reason for coming here, so maybe someone has other plans for Totem."
"Maybe someone used the painting of the dead girl to come here to play tricks," Lu Weiwei said.
"No." After listening to the opinions of several people, Gu Chen retorted directly:
"This person is probably reminding us and giving us clues."
"What did you say? Someone wants to remind us?" Xu Feng heard this and said in disbelief:
"No? Logically speaking, shouldn't this person be the one who killed Yuan Jialiang?"
"But when Yuan Jialiang was killed, why did he leave this ghost head pattern? Or did the murderer just use this ghost head pattern as his hunting mark?"
Gu Chen shook his fingers: "We must find out, what is the name of this girl's ex-boyfriend? We must have the specific identity information."
"If this ghostly pattern can be used on the side of the coffin, it is obvious that this person is trying to cause trouble."
"Leaving pieces of bamboo in conspicuous places in the woods may just be a reminder to us, deliberately letting us find this thing so that we can connect with the ghostly head on the side of the coffin."
"It seems like this person is always in control of everything."
"Oh, I have to let Boss Zhong think of a solution for this." Turning to look at Zhong Fakui, Officer Wang also said politely:
"Boss Zhong, please help us contact this girl's parents. We want to know the specific information about this girl's ex-boyfriend through her parents."
"You want to start with this person, right? OK, I'll find it for you right now."
After hearing what a few people were saying, Zhong Fakui immediately started looking for the girl's parents in his phone's address book.
After a while, Zhong Fakui's eyes lit up, he pointed at the phone and said, "I found it, should I call now?"
"Yes." Gu Chen nodded and said.
"Wait a moment." After hearing Gu Chen's words, Zhong Fakui immediately made a video call.
Not long after, the call was connected.
The two acquaintances immediately started chatting.
"Old Zhong, why do you want to see me so late?"
"Old Xiao, there is something I want to confirm with you." Zhong Fakui said.
"What's the matter? Tell me." The man named Lao Xiao seemed to be tired.
So Zhong Fakui took the transparent evidence collection bag in Gu Chen's hand again, showed the ghost head pattern painted on the bamboo piece in front of Lao Xiao and said:
"Old Xiao, do you still remember this?"
"What is this?" The man named Lao Xiao on the screen in his hand couldn't help but pick up the reading glasses next to him and put them on. Then he approached the screen and squinted.
But after a while, Lao Xiao was stunned on the spot and asked with some surprise: "Old Zhong, this... this thing seems familiar."
"Of course it looks familiar. This ghost head pattern was drawn by your daughter. How can it not look familiar?" Seeing that Lao Xiao seemed to have noticed something fishy, Zhong Fakui was also relieved.
Lao Xiao squinted his eyes and thought thoughtfully: "After hearing what you said, I actually remembered it. Yes, my daughter drew a picture of this kind of ghost head back then, and it was later painted by that bastard boy.
It’s time to leave.”
"Do you still remember?" Zhong Fakui said with a smile.
"Why don't you remember? But it wouldn't be that simple for you, Mr. Zhong, to make a video call to me so late at night, right? Where are you now?"
"Wangchao Town Police Station." Zhong Fakui took his mobile phone and took pictures of the surrounding area before saying, "Did you see it? They are discussing something in the director's office."
"Why are you calling me to talk about something?" Lao Xiao seemed to be confused by Zhong Fakui and asked more out of curiosity.
But Zhong Fakui said righteously: "Old Xiao, actually it's not me who is looking for you, but these policemen."
