The next day, the Shanghai Public Security Bureau.
"Yesterday, a total of 236 special cases occurred nationwide, with a death toll of 487, of which four special cases occurred in Shanghai. Why do we say special? Because from a normal perspective, none of these cases seems to be man-made.
Yes, it is similar to a supernatural case."
In the conference room, a group of senior officials from the Ministry of Public Security wearing white shirts were sitting around the crowded conference room.
A middle-aged man who looked to be in his fifties and held the title of Deputy Chief Superintendent stood in front of the projector with a teaching stick in his hand and said: "Look here, everyone, this is one of the four cases that happened in the Magic City last night.
One, let’s call it the Paper Man Murder Case.”
In the picture of the projector, there is a paper man with red gills and a little white hat.
The paper man holds a pair of paper scissors in his hand and is murdering people in a place similar to a hardware store.
In the picture, a middle-aged man with a somewhat stout body was stabbed to death on a chair from behind by a paper man. The whole process lasted less than ten seconds.
"This person, let's call him a human, is the murderer of the Paper Man Murder Case. The person he killed was called Zhao Dayong, the owner of a hardware store. After our investigation, we found that the victim Zhao Dayong had no social connections.
It’s not complicated. There was no quarrel before the murder, and there was no financial loss at the scene after the murder. All in all, it’s like a person is sitting at home, trouble comes from the sky, and the motive is unknown.”
The middle-aged man adjusted the screen again, and the screen changed to outside the hardware store.
It was raining lightly outside, and the paper man was struggling to move forward in the rain. The raindrops hit his body, shaking him every time.
After walking for more than ten steps, the paper man fell to the ground, just like paper soaked in rain, and his whole body was soaked into mud.
In the last scene of the picture, a man holding a black umbrella stood in front of the paper man.
Because of the obstruction of the umbrella, I couldn't see who this person was from the screen. I could only barely tell that the owner of the black umbrella was wearing a pair of white travel shoes.
Five seconds later, the black umbrella disappeared, the paper man lying on the ground disappeared, and the scene ended.
"The black umbrella and travel shoes are the only things that can be connected with the person in the entire murder case. Who is this person, what is his relationship with the paper man, and whether the victim Zhao Dayong is related to him, we currently know nothing.
"
The middle-aged man said this and adjusted the picture again. This time, a school appeared.
"This is the second special case, the night of Bixian's murder in Shangde High School. The victims are four girls in the second grade of high school in dormitory 303. The murderers are unknown and are suspected to be Bixian. At twelve o'clock last night, these four girls
In the dormitory, I lit candles and played pen fairy, and invited a female ghost named Feng Shuangshuang to get on top of me.
Feng Shuangshuang, female, was also a student at Shangde High School. She jumped to her death eight years ago because she was too stressed about the college entrance examination. There have been rumors in the school that she did not jump off the building because she was under too much pressure about the college entrance examination, but was suffering from
Harassment.
These four girls had heard of this rumor, and out of fun that day, they invited Feng Shuangshuang to get on her in the way of a pen fairy. At 12:23 in the morning, the dormitory manager heard screams coming from upstairs and opened the door
When they opened the door, all four girls were dead, two of them died of compressive asphyxiation, one died of a blow to the brain, and one had her throat pierced with a pen and died of excessive bleeding.
At the scene, we found the props for playing Bixian, but other than that, we didn’t find any clues, and there were no traces left by a third party in the room. It was like they suddenly went crazy while playing, and one of them bumped into
On the wall, a man picked up a pen and stabbed himself to death, while two others strangled themselves to death."
Having said this, the middle-aged man paused slightly, giving everyone time to think.
After three minutes of silence, seeing that everyone had almost accepted it, the middle-aged man continued: "The most important thing is that all four girls have no history of disease. Before this, they had no thoughts of committing suicide. From the perspective of the case,
Look, we have no idea why they committed suicide. The only thing that can be related to their suicide is this pen fairy game."
"Bixian murders people, it sounds like a horror story!"
"It's very strange. The paper man killed people before. At first, I thought it was a dwarf, disguised in the paper man and killed people. But when I saw the paper man fell in the rain and was soaked into a puddle of mud, I thought this thing
Maybe it really is a paper man, a paper man that can walk, kill, and seems to be controlled by someone."
"Speaking of paper figures, I found that something is really wrong in the past two days. Yesterday, I heard Mr. Li from the police academy say that there was an instructor who practiced hard qigong. When training students in the afternoon, he made a group of people in front of more than 30 people.
Every steel bar was bent hard."
"I've also heard about this. If there hadn't been an emergency meeting today, I would have wanted to go to the police academy to meet this instructor."
"Really or not, when do you go, I will go with you to see it."
There was a lot of discussion among the people below, some were doubtful, some simply didn't believe it, and some were sure of it.
"quiet!"
The middle-aged man tapped the blackboard with his teaching stick and continued: "Now, I will introduce to you the third case, Zhengde Community, the headless murder case. Zhengde Community was founded in 1986, 20 years ago.
, is considered an older community in Modu. Currently, Zhengde Community has been included in the demolition and reconstruction project. Ninety-nine percent of the residents in the community have been relocated, and only 13 nail households are still there.
Last night, most of the nail households said that someone knocked on their door in the middle of the night. Eight of these thirteen households heard the knock on the door, but did not get up to respond. Only five households responded.
Among these five households, two are victims, and three have had conversations with the person who knocked on the door. We have verified the content of the conversations, and please listen to them."
"Hello, Mr. Sun, we are from the Public Security Bureau and would like to ask you a few questions."
"Before you ask me, can I ask a question first?"
"Can"
"Were Lao Bai and Lao Xiao's heads really cut off?"
"Yes, we suspect"
"You are still suspicious. The heads of Lao Bai and Lao Xiao must have been cut off by the headless corpse. When this community was built, a headless corpse was dug out from under the foundation.
The bastards who were doing the construction at the time, I heard, just buried the bodies in the concrete without any treatment at all."
"Sir, please calm down. We need you to provide clues. Is there anything you want to say?"
"I was sleeping at the time, and suddenly I heard a knock on the door outside. I didn't want to pay attention to it at first, but he kept knocking, and I was a relatively light sleeper, so I couldn't sleep at all."
"Mr. Sun, what time was it?"
"What time is it? I didn't look at it. It should be two o'clock. I usually don't go to bed until one o'clock. When the knock on the door rang, it was when I seemed to be asleep. It should be that time."
"Okay, please continue."
“I was just about to fall asleep at the time, and I was upset when someone woke me up, so I stood at the door with a baseball bat and asked who he was. He didn’t answer, but kept knocking on the door with great force.
At that time, I thought, this is not a demolition team hired by the real estate company. As you know, we tough households just want more money, and the real estate company certainly doesn’t want to give it, so they often hire people to scare us.”
"and after?"
"Of course I wouldn't open the door, so I asked him who he was and what he did."
"At first he didn't answer, he just knocked on the door. I didn't open the door when he knocked, so I asked him what he wanted to do. The stalemate lasted for about a few minutes. Then he started talking outside and asked me if I had seen his head. I
At that time, I thought, this must be someone sent by the real estate company to scare us. Who can pretend to be a ghost? So I scolded him and went back to sleep. I don’t know what happened next.”
"My name is Bai Yichen, and the man whose head was chopped off is Bai Yiliang, who is my eldest brother. We live in a community with two units. That night, I heard a knock on the door, and someone outside the door asked me if I had seen his head.
.I am a very timid person. I didn’t dare to open the door, so I called my eldest brother and wanted to call him over, and then woo woo woo.”
"Mr. Bai, please be strong and tell us what happened next?"
"Later my eldest brother came, and I heard him talking outside, asking the man what he wanted to do, and then there were exclamations outside. When I went out to look, the man was holding two heads in his hands, right next to me
Before his eyes, he put my brother's head on his neck and walked away crookedly."
"Hello Mr. Liao, we are from the Public Security Bureau. You said you saw the murderer. What did you see at that time?"
"I heard someone knocking on the door, so I got up and asked him who it was. He didn't say anything, so I looked out through the peephole. At that time, at that time"
"Mr. Liao, please take a sip of tea first and answer later."
Gudongdong
"Pfft, it burned me to death. Why is it so hot?"
"Xiao Liu, quickly change Mr. Liao to a glass of warm water."
"No, let's continue talking. At that time, I looked out of the peephole and saw Lao Xiao standing outside, his clothes in tatters. I didn't dare to open the door, so I asked him what was wrong, but he didn't say anything.
He knocked on the door repeatedly. Just as I was about to ask, I realized something was wrong with Lao Xiao. Lao Xiao was a big fat man, very fat, weighing a full 240 pounds.
And the old Xiao standing outside the door looked skinny, like a potato stuck in chopsticks, and his body and head were particularly out of harmony. Before I could figure it out, the old Xiao standing outside the door put himself
After the head was taken off, he just held up his own head and asked me if I had seen his head. He also said that the head was inappropriate and felt uncomfortable when it was placed on his neck, and he begged me to give him his head back!"
"Then what?"
"Then I fainted from fright and didn't wake up until the next morning."
"Ahem"
In the office, the middle-aged man coughed twice and said: "There were three victims in total, one of them was Bai Yiliang, and the other two were Lao Xiao and his son. Several witnesses unanimously claimed that the murderer they saw had no head.
, and according to our chronological order, the first victims were Lao Xiao and his son, and then Bai Yiliang.
In other words, after the murderer killed Lao Xiao and his son, he went to find other people with Lao Xiao's head in mind. Among them, most of the residents did not open the door or even responded. Only the victim Bai Yiliang, because he went to his brother's house, was in the corridor.
He met the murderer and was brutally killed."
"Has the scene been searched?"
"Yes, but unfortunately nothing was found. Even the cameras in the community didn't have any clues. The earliest video was recorded fifteen days ago. After we retrieved the surveillance video and investigated carefully, we found that all the people entering and exiting had the correct number.
All the residents have also ruled out suspicion, as if the murderer is really a headless ghost who appears and disappears out of thin air."
Having said this, the middle-aged man sighed, changed the picture for the projector, and said: "The following is the fourth special case, a suspected zombie murder case."
