I suddenly woke up. Did they find something in the surveillance video?
The sleepiness was sweeping over me bit by bit, but now I woke up immediately.
I stood up and looked at the surveillance screen. I originally thought that the person who appeared on the surveillance screen was a female ghost in white.
When I saw the scene on the surveillance screen, the hairs on my body stood up.
The female ghost in white did not appear in the surveillance screen. What I saw was a bloody hand. That hand appeared in the screen, very close to the surveillance camera.
The hand grabbed the camera, and the camera was covered in blood.
The monitoring room was very quiet, no one spoke, it was so quiet that we could hear each other's breathing.
"Huh..." After a moment, an unknown person breathed out softly.
Only then did I wake up, shake my head, and bring my thoughts back to reality.
"Whose hand is this?" one of the personnel on duty in the monitoring room asked weakly.
No one answered his question. We all want to know about this bloody hand?
It couldn't be the dead security guard. We saw him walk into the duty room before and never came out again.
"Zhao Dongfang, look quickly!" An Keke urged me.
After seeing the bloody hands, I withdrew my gaze and stopped paying attention.
Now An Keke reminded me, I quickly looked over.
After the bloody hand appeared in the lens, it did not disappear immediately. On the contrary, it began to move slowly.
The fingertips moved in front of the camera, watching the movements of the bloody hand, which seemed to be writing some words.
We all stared at the surveillance screen attentively. After a few seconds, the bloody hands slowly stopped.
We were also able to see clearly what word was written in bloody handwriting. It was a scarlet, eye-catching "death".
die?
Who will die?
Is he talking about the security guard, any resident in the Garden Community, or the two uninvited guests An Keke and me?
As I thought about this problem, I felt more and more like I was falling into a huge dark swamp. The more I struggled, the deeper I fell.
This dark swamp is churning and could swallow me completely at any time.
An Keke stood up and said to the two people on duty, "Thank you very much for cooperating with our work, but we have one more request now, that is, don't tell anyone about the surveillance footage.
The two officers on duty nodded like chickens pecking at rice. "Don't worry, policemen. You policemen are fish, and we people are water. Fish cannot live without water, and water cannot be without fish. We will definitely cooperate with you in your work."
.”
Most people have a fear of the police, and they try their best to cooperate with the various requests made by the police.
After handing over the two people on duty, An Keke whispered to me, "Let's go! There's nothing we need here anymore."
I nodded, and then left the monitoring room with An Keke.
"An Keke, this is how you will handle this case." I asked casually.
An Keke smiled, "This case is obviously not man-made. It will definitely be handed over to the Supernatural Investigation Bureau in the end."
"Zhao Dongfang, why don't you tell me how you view this series of cases?" An Keke asked me.
I smiled bitterly, "I'm just a Taoist priest from Maoshan, and I'm not a case worker. If you want to solve the case, I can't help you at all."
But even though I said that, I still tried my best to analyze it and said, "Among the people who have died so far are Qiangzi and Wang Laoer from our Zhaojia Village, Mu Xue from your police station, and countless property owners in the Huayuan Community."
"The deaths of Mu Xue and the owners of the Huayuan Community are actually quite understandable. Maybe they accidentally provoked the female ghost in white that led to their deaths, or the female ghost in white wanted to give us a reminder not to investigate further. These are all
It's possible, but the only thing I can't understand is the death of Zhaojiacun Qiangzi and Wang Laoer. They were both ordinary and dedicated farmers. Why on earth did they die?"
An Keke pondered for a moment and then said, "Actually, many people's lives are like two parallel straight lines?"
"Parallel straight lines?" I was stunned. "What do you mean?"
"Many people's lives are two parallel straight lines. No matter how hard both parties try, these two parallel straight lines cannot intersect. But if one of the straight lines moves slightly, then the two unrelated straight lines can intersect.
"
Before I could speak, An Keke continued, "I think the fifty-four students of Jinzhong Middle School, Qiangzi and Wang Laoer of Zhaojiacun, maybe at the beginning, their lives were parallel straight lines, but after
Something must have happened three years ago that caused their lives to intersect.
I am one of those people whose math teachers died relatively young, so it is a little difficult to understand.
However, I still learned Chinese very well. An Keke said so much at once, and I immediately grasped the key point. In short, it was the fifty-four students and rapists who died in Admiralty Middle School three years ago.
Son, what happened between Wang and Laoer?
So the origin of everything started three years ago.
I sighed helplessly. It's a pity that we don't have a time machine and can't go back to that day three years ago, otherwise all the puzzles now can be easily solved.
"An Keke, did the police station leave any files to explain what exactly happened?" I asked.
"No." An Keke shook his head, "This is also something that makes me very upset. There are fifty-four students in a class, and Zhou Zixiang is the only one who survives. It's a pity that his mental condition is not ideal because of the stimulation, and he can't
Tell us what happened. The only file we have is that they went out on Saturday morning and were scheduled to come back on Sunday afternoon..."
I was shocked. "They left on Saturday morning and came back on Sunday afternoon, which means they have to stay out for one night. Is there any record in the police station's files and where did they go?"
An Keke's expression changed, "I'll call back right away and ask them."
An Keke has always been vigorous and resolute, and he had already taken out his mobile phone when he was talking.
After talking on the phone for a few minutes, An Keke hung up the phone and looked very excited, "I asked, the place they are going to is Luhua Village."
Luhua Village is a village on the outskirts of Dongcheng City. Because it is a suburb, the air there is fresh and people often go there to play.
"Have you ever gone to Luhua Village to investigate?"
An Keke suddenly became nervous, and after a while he said awkwardly, "No."
"No?" I looked at An Keke in surprise.
Fifty-four people died in one fell swoop. These policemen did not go to Luhua Village, the last place where these students stayed, to investigate what they were doing for food. The investigation of the case was simply too sloppy.
An Keke knew he was in the wrong and said weakly, "You also know that this case had a great impact at the time, and the entire Dongcheng City was paying attention! The bosses were very busy, and the policemen who handled the case were also under great pressure at the time. After a round of investigation,
Everything was found out, and in the end we had to announce that the fifty-four students died because of the car accident. The case has been closed, so naturally no one will go to investigate Luhua Village."
Although I am very dissatisfied, three years have passed, and it is no longer necessary to dwell on the mistakes of the police.
I said to An Keke, "Let's go to Luhua Village and have a look. At the same time, your police station must increase its efforts to find Zhou Zixiang. Zhou Zixiang experienced those things personally, and she is the only living person who can tell us the answer."
An Keke nodded, "Don't worry, I've already given instructions on this matter."
Three years have passed. Even if those fifty-five students had stayed in Luhua Village, three years would have been enough to erase all the marks they left.
But even so, we still need to go and take a look.
After making an agreement with An Keke, I got in An Keke's car and headed to Luhua Village with her.
While An Keke was driving, he turned to me and said, "It will get dark soon. If we rush there now, we may have to spend the night there tonight."
"I have no problem. What about you?"
It's just right to stay overnight in Luhua Village, which will allow us to feel the atmosphere of Luhua Village more deeply.
One day three years ago, the fifty-four students of Jinzhong Middle School went to Luhua Village with mixed or simple feelings just like us now.
