Reborn as a snake, creating a magic method in the real world

Chapter 100: Taking action behind the scenes!

On the other side, the police were also in a difficult situation. After collecting all the clues, they were all brought back to the bureau for examination.

"Do you think it's strange or not? There haven't been any major cases in our area in recent years, but every major case is inseparable from that mountain."

The place is remote, deep in the mountains and old forests. Although the villages at the foot of the mountains are crowded, the folk customs are simple and there have never been any murder cases before.

However, in recent years, murder cases have occurred one after another, all taking place on this mountain. People who don't know it think that a murderer lives here.

From the first poachers, to the later human traffickers, and today's tomb robbers, they may seem different, but they have subtle similarities.

Everyone's hands and feet are unclean, and the cause of death is also different.

People in the bureau were discussing this a lot, and they even couldn't help but spread the word privately that there might be something wrong with that mountain.

Sun Zhenbang reported the situation to his superiors as soon as he came back.

Sun Zhenbang's boss had a headache, "Why did something happen to this mountain again? This is already the third murder case, and 6 people died this time!"

Although I don’t know if it is directly related to the last two murders, its appearance and existence are a problem for the police.

"No matter what this time, the murderer must be caught, otherwise if it continues, the higher ups should be held accountable."

"After investigation, we found that these tomb robbers were employed by an overseas cultural relics reselling group, but since their base camp is not in China, it is difficult to continue tracking them."

It is not easy to trace the source, and these tomb robbers are also dead, so this line is more than half broken.

The people in contact above will definitely hide when they get wind of it. After all, they are not fools. Even if the police want to follow the clues, they will have no clues.

Unless they take the initiative to reveal themselves.

The boss complained, and Sun Zhenbang also had a headache. For some reason, he had a hunch this time that the murderer might still not be caught, just like the previous two times.

"What's your expression? Don't tell me you can't do it!"

Sun Zhenbang looked helpless, "I also know that in the previous two cases, we have not found the murderer so far."

The boss was speechless and sighed quietly, "Forget it, just do your best."

"Every time a case happens on that mountain, I lose a lot of hair. If this continues, I will almost become bald."

"The clues have been collected and sent to the inspection department. Now we are just waiting for the report there."

Now, on the one hand, the police have to continue tracking to see if they can find the overseas cultural relics reselling group. On the other hand, they also have to track down the murderer, which can be said to be a heavy task.

Anatomy room.

At this moment, the forensic doctor was operating in an orderly manner, and a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. The assistant next to him kept wiping his sweat with a towel.

It was clear that the room was full of cold air, but even so, the work clothes were wet with sweat.

The forensic doctor's hands were like the most precise instruments. The sharp knife accurately cut through the pale flesh and drew a thin blood line.

His movements were clean and smooth, and his expression was normal, as if he was cutting meat on a chopping board with a kitchen knife.

In addition to so many corpses, the forensic doctor has been able to keep his face expressionless, and even let him eat next to the corpses with ease.

As the deceased's chest was completely opened, the organs inside were clearly visible, as if all the secrets were exposed to the incandescent light.

Corpses cannot speak, but they can convey a lot of information.

The time of death of the deceased can be determined based on the body spots, the wounds or organs on the body surface, and the cause of death can be determined.

Soon the forensic doctor's expression changed slightly, his original calm expression was broken, and he revealed an incredible expression.

The assistant beside him couldn't help but ask: "Is the body difficult this time?"

The forensic doctor said nothing, and his expression gradually became serious.

At the back, the folds between the forensic doctor's brows could almost kill a mosquito. He said in disbelief: "How could this be?!"

"It's really weird."

The assistant on the side couldn't help but asked: "Teacher, what happened?"

The forensic doctor's expression was a little solemn, and he was sweating profusely. The assistant had obviously turned the air conditioner to the lowest temperature.

"Go get the instrument next to you."

Modern sophisticated instruments were connected to the corpse. Looking at the data on it, the forensic doctor looked surprised and uncertain, "I can't understand it. I have never encountered such a situation."

At this moment, Sun Zhenbang outside is anxiously waiting for the test results.

When he saw the forensic doctor coming out of the autopsy room, he quickly stepped forward and asked, "How is it? Have the autopsy results come out?"

The forensic doctor was also Sun Zhenbang's old friend and gave him a somewhat complaining look.

"Why is it so difficult every time you send corpses? It seems that I will put up a sign in the future, 'Nothing sent by Officer Sun will be accepted'."

Forensic doctors have been engaged in this profession for decades. They have handled hundreds if not thousands of corpses. They have dissected countless corpses and seen a lot of strange causes of death.

But every time Sun Zhenbang sends it, he can always refresh his lower limit.

He originally thought that the first two times were weird enough, but now the six sent to him surprised him again.

Sun Zhenbang also had a frown on his face, "Don't make fun of me. This time, the superiors directly issued an ultimatum. I must find the murderer."

The forensic doctor shook his head, "I think it's a bit suspenseful."

"Okay, let's not talk about this for now. Tell me about these corpses."

The forensic doctor didn't waste any time and went straight to the point. "The initial time of death of these people was determined to be between 2 and 3 in the morning. The time of death was about the same. As for the cause of death."

The forensic doctor paused and continued: "Should he have been struck by lightning and died?"

His tone seemed uncertain.

Sun Zhenbang couldn't help but widen his eyes and asked subconsciously, "Dead by lightning?"

As we all know, if they were really struck to death by lightning, there should be obvious scars on the body surface, but these people looked intact on the outside, and it didn't look like they had been struck by lightning at all.

Looking at the condition of these corpses, Sun Zhenbang shook his head, "They don't look alike."

"But according to the results of the instrument, he was indeed struck to death by lightning. I also conducted an autopsy and found that the internal organs failed. Everything is consistent with the sequelae of a lightning strike."

The instrument is infallible, not to mention that the forensic doctor has debugged it several times. Living people may lie, but corpses cannot.

The forensic doctor showed a bewildered expression, "This wound does not look like an electric baton, nor does it look like natural thunder."

If it is natural lightning, there will definitely be traces of burns on the body surface, and the eyebrows and hair will look like black coal.

Sun Zhenbang carefully observed the wounds on the corpse.

Logically speaking, ordinary electric batons and the like will not electrocute people, and the wound marks do not look like natural lightning strikes.

The forensic doctor and Sun Zhenbang studied for a long time, but they could not figure out what item discharged electricity and caused the death of these people.

"So what you're saying is that you still don't know what the murder weapon is this time?"

The forensic doctor spread his hands helplessly, "I have tried my best. According to my experience, we can't even find the murder weapon, let alone the murderer, just like the previous two times."

The causes of death of these people are different. The only thing in common is that the wounds are very strange and the murder weapon cannot be found.

"I really don't know how the murderer did it. Could it be that he is some kind of highly intelligent criminal figure that ordinary people can't do. Speaking of which, is it related to the previous two cases? Could it be the same person?"

The forensic doctor was talking a lot.

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the heart.

Sun Zhenbang suddenly raised his voice, "What were you talking about just now?!"

The forensic doctor looked stern, "I'm talking about the previous two cases."

"It's not this sentence, it's the sentence above."

"How can ordinary people do this?"

Sun Zhenbang was a little lost, chewing on these words over and over again, "Yes, how can ordinary people do this."

The forensic doctor looked at him suspiciously, wondering which tendon was wrong, "Hey, are you okay?"

After shouting several times, Sun Zhenbang came back to his senses, shook his head and said, "I'm fine, I just thought of something."

There were human traffickers who were poaching before, so the villagers at the foot of the mountain said it was a mountain god. It couldn't be a mountain god this time.

Sun Zhenbang rubbed his temples. The matter of the murderer and the murder weapon has not yet been resolved. News came back from the archaeological team, saying that Professor Zhang wanted to see him for something.

By the time Sun Zhenbang rushed back, Professor Zhang had been waiting for a long time.

"Professor Zhang heard that you wanted to see me for something?"

"Comrade police, I am here to report a situation to you. I suspect that the tomb robbers have hidden some cultural relics. I hope you will conduct a strict investigation and let them hand over the other missing parts."

Sun Zhenbang looked a little embarrassed, "I'm afraid our police can't do this."

After all, they don't have any magical powers. After all, everyone is dead, so it is impossible to judge the dead.

Professor Zhang suddenly became anxious, "What does this mean?"

"Because all those tomb robbers are dead."

Professor Zhang was stunned, not expecting such an answer, "Why did you die?"

"Could it be that the gangsters are fighting against the gangsters, or are they having internal strife?"

"We are still investigating what you said. I can't say more about the specific situation. However, we will send additional personnel to search nearby to see if there are any cultural relics lost halfway."

"I will let you know if there is any update."

The police have also considered the situation that Professor Zhang mentioned before, but judging from the clues they have found so far, they have not found a second wave of people.

As for internal strife, everyone's death wounds were the same. It cannot be ruled out that someone secretly acted secretly and escaped after confusing the police.

If such a person really existed, why he didn't take away all the cultural relics is another question.

"Then trouble you."

The members of the archaeological team also learned the news that all the tomb robbers had died. They were very surprised and started discussing it there.

"No wonder the police caught them so quickly. It turned out that they were all dead, and they died on the way down the mountain."

"I heard that there seemed to be six tomb robbers. Why was it so strange that they all died all of a sudden."

"Could it be that they have some physical illness?"

"Why would you be a tomb robber if you are sick? Even if you are sick, it is impossible for them to attack at the same time. I would say they are probably fighting among themselves."

"Could it be that the spoils were divided unevenly and there was some disagreement, so they killed each other."

Everyone in the heated discussion did not notice the figure slowly approaching behind them.

"Cough cough cough-"

Professor Zhang coughed a few times, which immediately startled them, "Professor, why are you here?"

"Are you all idle? There are still parts of the tomb that have not been excavated. Instead of working, you gather here and talk."

Everyone apologized quickly, "I'm sorry, Professor Zhang, we're going to work right now."

They immediately dispersed like birds and beasts.

Since the entire tomb was only half developed, everyone simply pitched tents nearby and set up camp here to conduct archaeological work.

<divclass="contentadv">The jungle is deep, and tall trees block out the sky and the sun, like green canopies, spreading patches of shade. Not far away, small mushroom-like tents rise from the ground.

The area around the tomb has been fenced off, and from time to time people shuttle with tools. Everyone performs their duties, and everything seems to be in order.

The archaeological work was proceeding in an orderly manner, and no one noticed that in the deep forest not far away, a pair of faint beast eyes were watching their every move.

Ye Qin saw all this.

As he expected, not only the tomb robbers, but also the archaeological team came later. Judging from this posture, they should dig out the entire tomb.

Not to mention that the nearby construction was a little noisy and disturbed the purity of his practice, and it also easily put him at risk of exposure.

Moreover, if all the tombs are dug, it will easily destroy the local feng shui.

Ye Qin still wants to practice here. Now that there are so many people, it must be inconvenient, and it will be even more affected in the future.

There was another question that bothered Ye Qin.

He got the alchemy cauldron and some scriptures from the tomb robbers. In some ways, he could be regarded as gaining the favor of the tomb owner.

This cause and effect still needs to be repaid.

Since practicing, Ye Qin has paid great attention to this kind of thing, not wanting to owe any cause and effect, so as not to affect his future practice.

Although the nature of archeology and tomb robbing are different, the former is for protection and research, but for the tomb owner, no one hopes that the tomb will be excavated after their death.

So for Ye Qin, tomb robbers and archaeological teams are actually of the same nature. They are both in the business of digging up people's ancestral graves. How can they be good or bad?

Does the archaeological team count as good people?Do good people dig other people's graves?

Therefore, Ye Qin did not intend to let them continue the archaeological work on this mountain.

Since he would get something belonging to the tomb owner by chance, he might as well take action this time.

Ye Qin looked at the tent of the archaeological team and others not far away, his eyes flashing with unknown light.

……

As night fell, the archaeological team also stopped working. After all, lighting was inconvenient at night and it was easy to damage the tomb accidentally. Moreover, after working all day during the day, everyone also needed a proper rest.

In the complete silence, a gleam of silver flowed quietly and fell on the tent. In the darkness of the mountain, the bright moonlight became the only light source.

Under the moonlight, several black shadows could be seen, slowly approaching the tents.

As Professor Zhang's apprentice, Li Mingxue is also a member of the archaeological team. However, this is his first time going out on a mission, so he is very motivated.

At this moment, Li Mingxue was sleeping soundly, but there was a constant clicking sound in his ears. It was not obvious at first, but it was a vague feeling.

The sound sounded like some creature was scratching, or like the sound of grinding teeth.

He didn't pay attention at first, but the sound got louder and louder, as if it was close at hand, as if it was ringing in his ears!

Li Mingxue got excited, opened his eyes suddenly, and became sober.

At that moment, all sounds disappeared and seemed to be just his illusion.

He rubbed his eyes and opened the tent. The bright moonlight fell on the mountains. Everything seemed so quiet and peaceful, and there was nothing strange around him.

"Could it be that I fell asleep and was dreaming just now?"

Li Mingxue talked to himself and did not see a few animal hairs falling outside the tent.

After checking, he closed the tent again and prepared to go back to sleep.

However, this was just the beginning. Whenever he was about to fall asleep, the scratching sound sounded again, and the tortured person could hardly sleep well.

But when he opened his eyes, there was nothing. He couldn't find any abnormality at all. Li Mingxue tossed and turned. This state lasted until dawn, and the sound disappeared.

When the archaeological team was preparing to start work the next day, they discovered that a few people seemed to be missing.

Professor Zhang looked around and said, "Why isn't Mingxue here?"

"When I passed by his tent, there seemed to be people inside, maybe they were still sleeping."

"He always gets up very early and is the most diligent. Why did he oversleep this time?"

Just when everyone was surprised, Li Mingxue finally arrived belatedly.

Seeing the bruises and huge bags under his eyes, the other members couldn't help but joke:

"Mingxue, you must have secretly gone to the tomb to work behind our backs last night. This is a work record you can only achieve after not sleeping all night."

Facing everyone's ridicule, Li Mingxue looked miserable and couldn't help but yawn.

"Don't talk about it. I heard strange noises all night last night, which made me a little nervous. I barely fell asleep at dawn."

Everyone lives in scattered places. Although they are all nearby, there is still a little distance between the tents. There are small tents for single people and large tents for sleeping together.

Li Mingxue lived in that kind of small tent.

The others looked at each other in confusion after hearing this, "Strange sound? Why didn't we hear it? There didn't seem to be any other movement yesterday."

Li Mingxue sighed, "Maybe I heard something wrong last night."

When night fell again, Li Mingxue put on earplugs. He couldn't sleep well at night, which even affected his work during the day and almost made a mistake.

However, God didn't seem to intend to let him go just like this.

The familiar scratching sound sounded again, getting louder and louder, and the small earplugs did not help.

Li Mingxue opened his eyes suddenly, looking a little painful.

I suspect someone is playing a prank, but we are all on the same team and usually get along well with each other. There have been no disputes, so there is no need to resort to such tactics.

But it's impossible for him to have auditory hallucinations.

The sound seemed to be against him. Every time he closed his eyes and was about to fall asleep, it would suddenly sound. When he opened the tent, there was nothing outside.

Li Mingxue lay down, but this time he didn't completely close his eyes. He wanted to see what was causing trouble.

Time passed bit by bit, and just when Li Mingxue's eyelids were about to fight, a small black shadow approached the tent.

coming!

The sleepy man immediately ran away from the sky, and his whole body became energetic.

The dark shadow that could be seen through the tent was not large, and it was not yet possible to determine what kind of creature it was based on its shape alone.

What is it that keeps harassing me again and again?

Li Mingxue had some doubts in his heart. As soon as he said it, his hands fell on the zipper and yanked it down. He had deliberately left a small opening before and did not close it tightly.

This will pull off quickly.

The black shadow also noticed its actions, and quickly flashed towards the bushes nearby. In a flash of lightning, Li Mingxue also saw clearly what the black shadow was.

It turned out to be a weasel!

Li Mingxue did not expect that the one who harassed him last night would be a weasel.

However, it ran too fast and Li Mingxue couldn't catch up. He could only angrily pick up a stone from the ground and throw it towards the bushes.

"Don't let me meet you again!"

Unexpectedly, the weasel was the one responsible for the prank.

Li Mingxue returned to the tent. The stone in his heart could finally fall away. He originally thought he could have a good sleep.

But he didn't expect that after he turned around and entered the tent, the weasel went away and came back again, with a small head popping up again, and there were countless shadows behind it, which looked so weird.

It was already the middle of the night, and there was no such piercing sound. Li Mingxue was sleeping soundly, but a hot breath sprayed on his face.

It was as if someone was breathing next to him.

But this is a one-person tent. How could there be a second person besides myself? !

After realizing this, Li Mingxue felt his scalp numb and his whole body became awake.

A cold wind blew from behind, which proved that someone had opened the zipper of the tent. He clearly remembered that he had closed it before!

There seemed to be something staring at him in the darkness, and the gaze was very obvious.

Li Mingxue slowly opened his eyes, and what he saw were countless pairs of green beast eyes!

Like a will-o'-the-wisp, staring at himself unblinkingly.

Countless weasels surrounded him, almost completely surrounding him.

Even though he was a grown man, he couldn't help but be frightened when he saw this. Such a scene was too exciting and constantly impacted his sanity.

Imagine sleeping in the middle of nowhere, only to open your eyes and find yourself surrounded by a pack of weasels.

"what!"

An earth-shattering scream pierced the silent night sky, quickly attracting the attention of others.

Many people woke up from their sleep, turned on their flashlights, and found that the screams came from Li Mingxue's tent.

Just as they were about to rush over, an unforgettable scene appeared in front of them.

Dozens of weasels ran out of Li Mingxue's tent and quickly disappeared into the bushes nearby.

Everyone was stunned and didn't react for a while. When they came to their senses, there was still the shadow of the weasel in front of them.

"Oops! Nothing happened to Mingxue."

The small single-person tent was a mess, with falling animal hair and footprints everywhere, but fortunately, Li Mingxue had no obvious injuries on his appearance, so everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Everyone helped him out, probably because he was frightened. Li Mingxue looked a little dull. It seemed that he could only let him sleep in other people's tents tonight.

"How come there are so many weasels suddenly?"

Everyone was puzzled. Logically speaking, small animals like this are afraid of humans. Moreover, according to Li Mingxue's story, those strange noises last night were also made by weasels.

After being seen by the archaeological team, the weasels simply stopped hiding themselves and appeared in front of everyone with a carefree look.

Li Mingxue's story was the introduction, and soon others heard the scratching and grinding sounds at night, which almost kept people awake.

Because I couldn't get any rest at night, and because I had to work during the day, I couldn't keep my spirits up. Everyone was yawning all the time, and they all had the same bags and dark circles under their eyes.

If this continues, it has seriously affected the archaeological process. Some people even fell asleep and almost damaged a cultural relic.

"Professor Zhang can't continue like this. He works very hard during the day, and is harassed by those animals at night. He can't have a good rest. Even his iron-clad body can't stand it."

"Yes, Professor Zhang, we have to find a way to solve these things quickly. We are here for archeology, not to torture the eagle. We simply can't bear it."

"Professor Zhang, look at the dark circles under our eyes, they are almost as good as national treasures."

Many people came to Professor Zhang to complain, but Professor Zhang had no choice but to kill all these animals in order to carry out the work smoothly.

Moreover, these animals are very smart and hide away from people when they see them. They are so slippery that one wonders whether they have become spirits.

This matter has not been resolved yet, but one wave has arisen after another.

"Oh no, Professor Zhang!"

An archaeological member ran over in a panic.

Professor Zhang asked helplessly: "What's wrong?"

"Those villagers said they couldn't do the job and didn't plan to do it anymore."

There is one more update, I will continue writing later.
