The police officers continuously entered the community and searched the Muyang Building.
In this way, I was busy until about eight o'clock in the evening.
However, the final result of the search...
Found nothing!
When Officer Zhang told Lu Yanran this answer, she almost couldn't believe it.
"You...have all investigated?"
"Yes." Officer Zhang obviously felt strange, and he emphasized again: "We checked the surveillance many times, and there were people watching outside when we went in to search. We also mobilized all the police officers from several branches.
Okay, more than a hundred households were searched.
Not to mention places that can hide people, even places that cannot hide people, we have searched them all."
When Lu Yanran heard "no place to hide people", she immediately thought of something.
Having watched many criminal investigation dramas, she immediately understood that the police officers could not rule out the murderer in order to evade the search.
The possibility of killing Zhang Bei and dismembering his body.
"Where's the rooftop? Have you checked the rooftop?"
"I've checked everything. There really isn't. The only thing that hasn't been investigated yet,
It’s the sewer system and the septic tank in the community.”
Sure enough... the police thought of dismembering the body!
"Ms. Lu, when you go home, be sure to lock the doors and windows. We will continue to investigate this case and will definitely find a way to find your husband!"
"Surveillance... Is it possible that the surveillance has been manipulated? For example, has it been edited or something?"
"We will take the surveillance back to the police station for technical analysis." Officer Zhang obviously realized that the case was unusual, and added: "Ms. Lu, if you have any clues, please contact us at any time."
Lu Yanran was completely at a loss now, only feeling an unprecedented sense of despair.
Only the sewer system has not been investigated...
If Zhang Bei has not left the building since he returned home last night, then the only possibility he can think of is murder and dismemberment.
There is a murderer hiding in this building!
The thought of this made Lu Yanran's hair stand on end.
Should we inform the police about Zhang Bei’s instructions?
Do you want to say it?
Lu Yanran weighed it carefully and found out that she knew Zhang Bei very well. He was a person who was rigorous and conscientious in his work, had extremely clear logical thinking, was very accepting of death, and at the same time had a very strong sense of justice.
For him,
Right is right,
Wrong is wrong, and I will never change it for the sake of worldliness.
With his character, he would never do anything illegal. So he told himself not to say anything to the police, which obviously had his own purpose. Either he didn't trust the police, or... even if he told the police,
It’s no use.
Although Lu Yanran often dislikes Zhang Bei's straight male personality, she can at least be sure of one thing: Zhang Bei is 100% sincere to her, and he will definitely not harm her. Otherwise, Lu Yanran would not be willing
Entrust your life to Zhang Bei.
Growing up in a bad native family, Lu Yanran has always endured the abuse of her parents' patriarchal character, so Lu Yanran likes Zhang Bei, a person who pays great attention to the principle of fairness in everything she does. To put it to the extreme, Lu Yanran would rather believe in tomorrow
Even if the earth explodes, Zhang Bei will not be doubted.
Out of this trust in her husband, she ultimately told Officer Zhang nothing.
After the police left, she locked all the doors in her home and locked the windows.
"This...should be fine..."
Then,
She remembered the most important thing... to eat the meat!
She came to the refrigerator,
Open it,
Then he took out a large piece of raw meat from the red plastic bag.
Lu Yanran remembers it very clearly,
What Zhang Bei said at the time was "it must be eaten raw".
As long as you eat one gram of raw meat, there should be no problem.
One gram...
It should be about the size of a peanut, right?
But the meat is so frozen that it needs to be defrosted first.
But then, Lu Yanran felt something was wrong.
She has never seen Zhang Bei use a microwave oven.
Not once.
If he's been feeding himself this kind of meat for the past month, it makes no sense that she hasn't seen him use the microwave once.
Doesn't it need to be defrosted? Or is there meat that he has already cut somewhere else?
Just when Lu Yanran was thinking, suddenly, she heard a knock on the door...
"Police?"
Is there something else I forgot to ask her?
Lu Yanran quickly walked to the door, raised her eyes to the peephole and looked out.
However...
When she brought her eyes to the cat's eye, her whole body trembled!
The knocking on the door continues.
However, there was no one outside the door!
Yes, no one!
She took a few steps back, rubbed her eyes, and looked through the peephole again.
There's still no one outside the door!
But the knocking on the door still continues!
How is that possible???
For a moment, she suddenly thought of her husband Zhang Bei's words, his mysterious disappearance, and the strange attitudes of her neighbors.
A sense of fear began to arise from the bottom of her heart!
She kept backing up and asked in a trembling voice: "Who...who...who?"
She was still thinking about the possibilities that could reasonably explain this phenomenon. For example, who recorded the sound of knocking on the door, and where did he hide it and play it for her to listen to?
"No... don't make such a joke with me!"
Outside, the knocking on the door continues.
At this moment, Lu Yanran suddenly thought of something.
She immediately turned back and looked at the meat on the table!
She did not take one gram of raw meat in the morning and evening as Zhang Bei said!
At this time, how could she have the patience to defrost raw meat in the microwave? She went to the kitchen, opened the cabinet, took out a kitchen knife from there, then ran to the raw meat and chopped it with one knife!
Then...
Something happened that she couldn't believe.
This knife chopped into the raw meat that was frozen as hard as a rock in the refrigerator!
Not only that, from it, red... blood also flowed out!
The refrigeration function of the refrigerator is broken? How long has it been since she took the meat out? How could it be defrosted at this room temperature?
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
But how could she care about so much at this time? After she chopped off the meat, she carefully cut off some minced meat. She estimated that it should be two grams, and quickly stuffed the meat into her mouth! <
/p>
After putting it in my mouth, I didn't feel ice at all! At the same time, I didn't taste anything at all.
She quickly swallowed the meat into her mouth, and after swallowing it, she wondered if it would be of any use?
"Boom..."
Almost not even a second after she swallowed the meat, there was a knock on the door... and it ended!
"This..."
Could it be that it was really because she ate this meat?
If it is a coincidence, the timing is too accurate, right?
However, this made her believe in one thing even more.
Zhang Bei didn't lie to her! Everything he said is true!
Although she knew it was probably meaningless, she still walked to the cat's eye and looked outside.
Naturally, there is still no one outside.
"Calm down...calm down...calm down..."
Lu Yanran picked up her phone and started searching online.
She entered the words "eat raw meat to ward off evil spirits".
However, there is no saying that raw meat can ward off evil spirits. However, some people use raw meat as sacrifices to worship the dead.
"No...that's wrong...this meat?"
She walked to the refrigerator, opened it, and confirmed... the refrigeration function of the refrigerator was absolutely fine. The other meat in the quick-freezer was as hard as ever, and when she cut it with a kitchen knife, there was no reaction at all.
She walked back to the raw meat and planned to check it carefully, but she discovered something even more shocking.
The gap she had just made in this piece of meat, the blood, and the other cut pieces of flesh...
All gone!
There is only a very square piece of frozen raw meat left!
Seeing this scene, Lu Yanran was completely dumbfounded.
Today, too many things happened that cannot be explained by common sense.
At this moment, Lu Yanran began to realize a terrifying fact.
There may be... "dirty things" in this building that she heard from the older generation in the countryside!
