A few minutes later, with the help of two police officers, the old security guard finally understood the question we wanted to ask. Although the old security guard's ears were sick, his mouth was not, and he quickly told the whole story.
After listening to the old security guard's explanation, our group finally had a general understanding of the whole thing.
The deceased this time, like the old security guard, were all members of the security team affiliated with a state-owned enterprise that originally owned the building. Because they were worried that outsiders would run into the building and steal wires and other things before the explosion, the building was usually closed.
There will always be two security guards watching at the gate.
It was against this background that the deceased in this case suddenly and silently disappeared one day almost a month ago.
At that time, people from the security team tried to get in touch with him, but failed. In addition, the deceased was a young man who had just come to Yangcheng to work from other places and had no relatives or friends in Yangcheng. Therefore, in the end, the security team’s
People just thought that he couldn't bear the hardship and returned to his hometown. The salary of a security guard job is not high, the treatment is not good, and the most important thing is that there is no prospect. Therefore, many young people in the security team will quit their jobs after only a few days, like
There are not many people who die suddenly and quietly leave like this.
Therefore, almost a week after the deceased disappeared, the security team forgot about this person and never thought of calling the police.
Then the time came tonight. When the old security guard had finished his dinner and started to conduct routine patrols in the building, he suddenly noticed a smell coming from a certain elevator in the elevator room. The old security guard initially
I thought something like a stray cat or mouse had died inside, but when I wanted to open the elevator door to take a look, I forgot that the power to the elevator had been turned off long ago.
After struggling for a while, the old security guard turned the power switch of the elevator back on, and then opened the elevator door, only to discover the mummified body.
As for the questions Zhang Mo raised before, the old security guard also had a very reasonable explanation.
Because this building is to be demolished, the office staff inside have already moved out of the building. However, as a precaution, the water and electricity in the entire building have not been cut off and are still available for use.
The four elevators in the building have also remained.
On weekdays, when the building's security guards want to patrol the building, they will take the elevator and patrol between the floors. However, because the operation of the elevator consumes a lot of electricity, and there are basically no people in the building, so on weekdays, this
Among the four elevators, only the outermost elevator remains open, while the other three are always closed. As for the deceased, I don’t know what happened to him to get into this already-open elevator.
In a closed elevator.
In addition, the old security guard's poor hearing was also one of the important reasons why the deceased was trapped in the elevator and no one noticed it. It happened to be a coincidence, because the date for the building to be demolished was approaching, and in order to save costs
, after the deceased disappeared, the security team did not recruit new people, but asked the old security guard to hold on for the last time. In this way, the old security guard was the only one in the building on weekdays. His ears were not good and he could not hear at all.
Hearing the deceased's cry for help in the elevator, if the security team had sent someone to take the deceased's place, they might have discovered the deceased trapped in the elevator.
After explaining this to us, the old security guard sighed and felt sorry for the deceased. Zhang Mo asked the two policemen to take the old man back to the security room to rest, while he took us around in and out of the elevator.
The policeman who led us over waited for us to see the scene before approaching us and asking: "Three leaders, have you found any clues? From what I see, this case is probably just an accident. I just asked the hospital's police to
People are here to collect the body, they will be here soon."
Zhang Mo rolled his eyes, pulled San Fatty and I aside, and then said to us: "San Fatty, in a moment you can think of a way to send those people away. I'm going to do a ritual to kill this dead man."
I summoned my soul to ask about the situation at that time and see if the old security guard missed anything."
The third fat man patted his chest and said that he would leave this matter to him.
After admonishing the three fat men, Zhang Mo turned to me again. He pointed diagonally above us. I looked back and found a surveillance camera near the ceiling of the elevator room.
Zhang Mo asked me to ask the old security guard later to see if the surveillance camera is still on. If it is on, then ask if there are any videos of the time when the deceased was missing. He hopes to find out from those videos
Some clues.
After giving these instructions, the three of us went separate ways. The third fat man made a random excuse and took the policemen from the city bureau to check upstairs. Zhang Mo got into the elevator where the deceased was and took the
I took out a pile of talismans and prepared to set up a spirit-calling formation.
As for myself, I walked back to the security room at the entrance of the building. There, the policemen from the two police stations were still comforting the old security guard. When they saw me coming in, they asked me if there was anything wrong?
Without explaining too much, I stated my intention straight away. However, the old security guard’s answer made me regretful. In order to save power, the surveillance in the building has been stopped long ago. So now the surveillance cameras in the building are just
It's just a flower shelf, it has no effect at all.
"Is that so?" I scratched my head with some regret. If that was the case, then I could only place my hope on Zhang Mo. I just didn't know if the soul of the deceased could provide us with any useful clues.
But just as I was scratching my head, a policeman in the room suddenly thought of something and said to me: "This leader, there are cameras on the road near this building for filming traffic violations. If you want
To confirm what day the deceased entered the building, you can ask the traffic police for the video."
After hearing the news, I immediately called Director Chen. After briefly explaining the situation here, I asked him to bring us the video footage from near the building when he gives us the information tomorrow.
.
After I made the call, I happened to hear the sound of an ambulance coming from outside. Not long after, I saw a team of ambulance personnel running into the building carrying a stretcher. I was afraid that they would disturb Zhang Mo, so I chased him and tried to
I stopped them, but after taking a few steps, I stopped.
Because not far in front of me, I had already seen Zhang Mo wiping his hands and walking past the ambulance personnel. In addition to him, the third fat man also happened to return to the first floor with the police from the city bureau.
After the three people gathered together, I first shook my head and explained the situation on my side, and then asked Zhang Mo if he had any clues?
Zhang Mo also shook his head and said that he also found nothing. After asking about the soul of the deceased, the only valuable information he knew was how the deceased got trapped in the elevator.
It turns out that although there are two security guards in this building, he and the old security guard, they work in shifts. On the day of the accident, the old security guard worked the day shift first, and the deceased came to work the night shift. When the deceased arrived in the building,
At that time, because I didn't see the old security guard, I thought he was patrolling upstairs, so I wanted to take the elevator upstairs to find him.
On weekdays, in order to save electricity, only the outermost elevator in this building would be open. However, that day, when the deceased was preparing to take the elevator, he unexpectedly saw that the innermost elevator door in the elevator room was already open.
It's on.
Thinking that the old security guard had opened the elevator, the deceased, in order to save time, did not wait for the elevator that had been open to descend to the first floor, but walked into that elevator. However, just when he entered the elevator, the deceased
The elevator door, which was still open, closed with a bang.
It was only then that the deceased discovered that the elevator had not been opened at all. Not only was there no electricity inside, but even the emergency call button was unusable. He did not know whether it was due to disrepair or lack of maintenance. He wanted to slap the elevator door.
He called for help, but no one answered him.
In this way, the deceased was trapped in the elevator until he was about to die without waiting for rescuers.
