Half an hour later, we arrived at the underground collection hall.
Walking out of the elevator, Boss Li was already waiting outside the door. As soon as Manager Lei saw him, he hurriedly asked: "What is going on? Why is another person dead?"
"I don't know!" Boss Li looked like he was crying and spread his hands to express that he didn't know either.
He received a notice from the police this evening that the on-site evidence collection work had ended, so he immediately brought people here to clean the scene and prepare for the handover later. Because he suspected that the last incident was caused by external factors.
It was caused by people invading this place. Boss Li brought a group of people from the security company with him this time to check whether the security equipment in the collection hall had malfunctioned, allowing outsiders to take advantage of it.
In the storage room where the dead man was found, no one had cleaned up the blood stains on the floor, so Boss Li asked two cleaners to go in and clean it first, and he took the people to check elsewhere.
But unexpectedly, at this moment, an accident happened again. In order to prevent the cleaners from damaging the Buddha statue, Boss Li arranged for a bodyguard to accompany him in the storage room. Later, the bodyguard had to go to the toilet once because he had to urinate urgently, but when he
When I came back, I found that the two cleaners were dead! And their death conditions were exactly the same as those of the two security guards a few days ago!
"I don't care if anyone is dead or not!" Manager Lei waved his hand, "What I care about is... did you call the police?"
"No! Li was the first one I notified Yinla." Boss Li shook his head quickly.
From the conversation between the two of them, I heard that after discovering the body, Boss Li’s first reaction was not to call the police, but to call Manager Lei to discuss countermeasures. After the last incident, because he had already suffered the loss of calling the police once,
, they were worried that after the police knew about it, they would block the scene again and delay the transaction again, so this time, Boss Li had planned to wait for us to transport the Buddha statue away before calling the police.
Hearing this, Manager Lei breathed a sigh of relief, waved his hand and motioned to see the Buddha statue.
But when he heard the word "Buddha statue", Boss Li's face suddenly became uncomfortable.
Manager Lei also noticed it and asked hurriedly: "What's wrong? Another accident happened to the Buddha statue?"
Boss Li didn't say much, but asked him to go and see for himself.
Seeing Manager Lei running towards the storage room in a hurry, Wang Daquan waved his hand and motioned for us to follow him.
However, when I left the elevator, I discovered that Boss Li had left two security guards guarding the elevator. The two security guards had sling sticks in their hands and bulging waists. They seemed to be equipped with guns.
!
Wang Daquan also saw it, but he didn't make a sound. He just coughed at me and signaled me to be quiet, and then pulled me out of the elevator.
Before he even reached the storage room, Manager Lei screamed from in front of him.
"Ah~~!!!"
I swallowed and walked slowly over.
Although I was mentally prepared, the scene I saw in front of me still made me shudder.
In the storage room, two headless corpses were lying on the ground, their bodies covered in blood. The blood that had not yet dried was slowly flowing down their broken necks, dyeing the walkway red.
Not far from the two corpses, the heads of the two sweepers fell aside. The eyes of the two heads were like dead fish, with bulging eyeballs protruding outwards. Their expressions showed indescribable horror and fear.
.
The Buddha statue stood quietly next to the two corpses. The Buddha statue's body had been soaked in blood and became like a Shura from hell. It exuded the breath of death, which made people look at it and found it indescribably weird!
The storage room was eerily quiet. Manager Lei shivered and shifted his gaze from the corpse on the ground to the Buddha statue, his pupils suddenly widening.
He shouted almost in a roaring voice: "Old Li! Why is this Buddha statue covered in blood? Why don't you ask someone to wipe it? If the Buddha statue is stained with blood, the price will not go up?!"
Come on! I suddenly thought to myself, why didn’t I realize that Manager Lei was such a money-grubbing person in the past, and he was still caring about his Buddha statue even after his death?
But at this moment, I suddenly heard Manager Lei say "ah".
I came back to my senses, looked towards him, and was suddenly stunned.
Only now did I realize that besides these two corpses, there was something else wrong in the storage room.
The two corpses fell at the door of the storage room, and the location of the Buddha statue was in the corner next to the door.
The position of the Buddha statue has actually changed!
I was not sure whether the position of the Buddha statue had been moved by the police after the last case. Manager Lei was not sure either. He pointed at the Buddha statue and asked Boss Li: "Old Li, is this Buddha statue?"
Boss Li shook his head and said that the Buddha statue had really been moved by someone, and it was not the police. Because when the cleaners cleaned the place, they had originally moved the Buddha statue back to the center of the room. In this regard, Boss Li
They saw it with their own eyes. But when they heard that another person had died and rushed here, they found that the location of the Buddha statue had changed again.
"Leisheng, Li said, is this place really haunted?"
Manager Lei frowned and listened to Boss Li's words before saying, "It's haunted? Lao Li, it's in the middle of the night, so don't scare yourself, okay?"
"You think I'm willing? If it's not about being haunted, how can it be about the Buddha statue? I saw clearly before that the Buddha statue is placed in the middle of the room!"
While Manager Lei and Boss Li were arguing about whether the Buddha statue had been moved by ghosts, I looked up and looked around.
This storage room was originally specially used to store Buddha statues. In addition to the incandescent lamp above the head, there is also a surveillance camera at the door of the storage room.
I patted Wang Daquan and pointed towards the camera. When Wang Daquan saw it, his eyes narrowed into a straight line. Then he came to Manager Lei and whispered a few words in his ear...
After hearing what Wang Daquan said, Manager Lei rolled his eyes and asked Boss Li: "Old Li, is there surveillance in the storage room? Where is the surveillance video? Have you seen what happened in the video?
?”
"Well..." Boss Li sighed, "Lei Sheng, I don't hide it from Li, but the surveillance here broke down a few days ago."
"It's broken? What kind of bad method?" Wang Daquan asked.
"It's just that the screen is completely black and I can't see anything."
Wang Daquan asked again: "Then when did it start to break?"
"It was the day the person died. After those SIRs came, they wouldn't let us in, so we haven't had time to repair it until today."
"The day when people die?" Wang Daquan seemed to have thought of something and pondered for a while.
Manager Lei saw his appearance and hurriedly asked: "Old Wang, what did you think of?"
Boss Li was a little surprised by Manager Lei's attitude towards Wang Daquan, because in his opinion, Wang Daquan was just a security guard, but Manager Lei's attitude towards him was respectful. He couldn't help but ask: "Lei Sheng, this gentleman
Is he...?"
Manager Lei introduced: "This is Wang Daquan, the captain of our company's security team. Lao Wang used to be in the army and was an ace scout of the special forces. He is very capable! I spent a lot of effort to invite him here.
!”
"Oh!" Boss Li realized in vain and immediately complimented: "So he is the King of Soldiers!"
Wang Daquan ignored their compliments. He asked us to find an escalator outside, move it to the door, climb up and check the monitor, then came down and explained to Manager Lei: "Manager Lei, the monitoring equipment here is operating normally.
, I can’t see any fault, I suspect that the line may have been tampered with.”
"Have you tampered with anything?"
Wang Daquan nodded and analyzed: "Look, the day when the equipment failed for the first time happened to be the day when the first murder occurred. I'm afraid this is not as simple as a coincidence.
Also... when the first murder occurred, the police confirmed that the Buddha statue had been moved. They suspected that someone had invaded and wanted to steal the Buddha statue.
So...can we think that the police's judgment was not wrong. Someone indeed invaded the collection hall at that time. In order to avoid being discovered by the surveillance cameras, they made some tricks on the surveillance circuits to make us mistakenly
I thought the monitor was broken.
When they first tried to steal the Buddha statue, they underestimated its weight and ran away before they could move it away. However, they never gave up and were still observing the situation around them.
Then, just today, after they confirmed that the police had left, they sneaked into the collection hall again, but unfortunately, they were seen by the two cleaners this time, so they killed them."
Wang Daquan's words immediately impressed Boss Li. He is from Hong Kong. Four people died in the collection hall one after another, and they all died in such horrific ways. His first reaction was whether the collection hall was haunted.
But I didn't expect that a thief might have broken in. Now that I heard Wang Daquan's analysis, I thought about it again, and it was really possible.
Thinking of this, he quickly grabbed Wang Daquan's hands and begged: "Sheng Wang, since Li can see that there is silver coming in, can Li help me get there early and find out how they got in? I don't want to be so worried every day in the future.
La."
Wang Daquan turned his head and saw Manager Lei nodding aside. He first asked Boss Li if he had sent anyone to keep an eye on the entrance and exit. After receiving a positive reply, he said: "That's good. Since we can be sure that there is someone there,
If he broke in, let’s look around quickly. This intruder couldn’t have entered the library by taking the elevator in such a arrogant manner, there must be some other passage nearby!”
"Impossible." Boss Li shook his head, "This collection hall used to be an underground garage. There was only one passenger elevator and a freight elevator for entry and exit. The safety passage was also blocked. Is there any other passage?"
Manager Lei waved his hand: "If Lao Wang says there is, then there is. He is an expert in this area. Lao Li, since you asked Lao Wang for help, then you must believe what he said. Otherwise, we will take the Buddha statue and leave now, and you will
Let’s find a way to solve the mess here.”
Boss Li forced a smile and said, "Early in the morning, early in the morning."
So Wang Daquan divided us into groups of two and began to search the library.
