Replace the evil way

Chapter 21 Head-to-head confrontation

There are two people with the surname "He" that Cheng Zesheng has met recently. One is He Lu, who has a bad face every time they meet, and complains if he disagrees with him; the other is He Wei, who is lying in the cold morgue. The time of cremation is still unknown.

But now, after encountering a supernatural event at home and receiving such a warning note, even if Cheng Zesheng has seen strong winds and waves in the front line for a long time, it is inevitable that Cheng Zesheng's scalp will tingle, and many Japanese, Korean, and Thai words will pop up in his head with a "buzz". Classic horror film.

"Don't touch what I bought."Just a few simple words conveyed full resentment.Cheng Zesheng was a bit innocent, he bought the box of instant fried noodles before, didn't he not eat a single bite?

He always thought that the instant noodles were bought by a neighbor he had never met, but now he has two guesses, one is that the neighbor is a ghost, and the other is that the neighbor is pretending to be a ghost.

As a staunch materialist atheist, Cheng Zesheng believed in the latter without hesitation. He speculated that maybe because the neighbor was angry because he didn't say hello when he ate two times before, he came up with this idea to scare him.The automatic opening of the refrigerator door may be due to some program, and the instant noodles may be hidden somewhere and taken away while he was distracted.

Thinking about it this way, Cheng Zesheng suddenly felt reasonable and well-founded. He was quite self-aware that it was indeed his problem that he didn't say hello when he was eating.

He Wei was watching the surveillance in the room, and there was interference from the electromagnetic signal. As expected, the note pasted on the coffee table disappeared.He touched his chin, guessing that the dead ghost had already taken it away, what would he do?Do you continue to make trouble at home arrogantly, or quit when you are in trouble?

"Du, Du", there was a crisp knock on the door, He Wei didn't stand up immediately to check.This is the bedroom door, and there is no peephole installed. If you open the door rashly, you don't know what kind of danger you will face.

Cheng Zesheng coughed lightly: "Hi, I'm Cheng Zesheng, can you open the door?"

There was no response in the room, and Cheng Zesheng continued: "You took away the instant noodles and fried noodles just now, right? I'm sorry, I didn't say hello a few days ago and took your food without permission. That's all right, you open the door, Let's have a good chat, and I'll apologize to you face to face."

Still silent.

He Wei kept staring at the door, knocking only once and then stopped, 5 minutes passed, was he still at the door or had he left?

After waiting for 5 minutes, the neighbor has not made any sound.Cheng Zesheng put his ear on the door, and after a while he frowned, he was really not in the room.

He went downstairs with doubts, took out his mobile phone and dialed Huang Zhanwei's number.

"Boss Huang, it's me, Cheng Zesheng. Which department colleague did you arrange to live with me? Can you give me a call?"

Hearing Bureau Huang's answer, Cheng Zesheng's heart sank, and he subconsciously squeezed his phone tightly.

"What nonsense, who arranged a roommate for you? Didn't I tell you that day that you live alone in that dormitory?"

Cheng Zesheng took two iron hairpins, inserted them into the keyholes and flicked them.I still learned this skill from my master. What you need to do criminal investigation is to be able to do everything. If you put it on criminals, it’s sneaking and picking locks to steal chickens and dogs, but if you put it on them, you have more skills than you. If you master some skills yourself, it will be easier. Determine the modus operandi of the suspect.

After learning that there were indeed no neighbors, Cheng Zesheng breathed a sigh of relief, and had no choice but to lean towards the first guess.But who is Cheng Zesheng, a high-minded, capable, young and promising deputy head of the criminal investigation detachment of the Municipal Bureau, the first reaction when encountering strange things is definitely not to rush out of the house in fright, but to seek solutions based on facts.

After hanging up the phone, he stuffed the note into the pocket of his coat, took out plastic gloves and put them on, took out the necessary tools for breaking through the empty door from the small box he carried, and went back to the door of the "neighbor", intending to go in and check. after all.

But what he didn't know was that there was only one door between He Wei and him.He Detachment stared at the door lock expressionlessly, and heard a crisp "click", and quickly twisted the circle to lock the door again.

Cheng Zesheng's joy was only ignited for a second before being extinguished. The door was locked again in an instant, and the suspect was most likely hiding inside.

This news made people nervous and excited. Cheng Zesheng tried again, and the second he unlocked the door, he quickly pressed the door handle and pushed it in.But He Wei reacted faster, put his knee against the door, and mercilessly turned the lock again.

"..." Cheng Zesheng stood up, as if talking to himself, or as if speaking to the person in the room, "You have the ability to scare people, and you have the ability to open the door."

He Wei squatted down and looked out along the crack of the door, but there was nothing.He knew that he didn't have "yin and yang eyes" and couldn't see dead ghosts, so he couldn't tell whether he was outside the door at the moment.

As time passed by, He Wei pondered for a long time, but was finally overcome by curiosity.He strongly wanted to understand what was going on, so he took the initiative to unscrew the lock, slowly opened the door, and stared at the empty air outside the door.

Cheng Zesheng was considering whether to break in through the door. There is no unparalleled path, and the door opened by itself.There was no suspect at the door. Cheng Zesheng's first reaction was that the person was hiding behind the door, so the two iron hairpins used to unlock the lock were caught between his fingers and became hidden weapons "palm needles".

Holding the door with one hand, he slid in, raised his right arm and was already in a blocking position.Unexpectedly, there was no one behind the door, no, to be precise, there was no sign of habitation in the entire room.

The configuration in the room was the same as his, a bed, a wardrobe, and a desk.Cheng Zesheng didn't dare to relax yet, so he opened the wardrobe doors one by one, checked under the bed, opened the window and checked the outdoors, and made sure that there were no traces of strangers' activities, and the weird feeling in his heart was even worse.

He Wei stood at the door, silently witnessing the supernatural phenomenon that appeared before his eyes.He knew that Cheng Zesheng had come in because the cupboards were opened one by one, the drawers under the bed were pulled open, and the windows were half opened.The trajectory of this activity is somewhat familiar, and it is similar to the order in which he searched the scene.

Cheng Zesheng closed the window. There were no climbing objects on the outer wall of this bedroom, and there was not even a water pipe. If people went out from here, they would not find a foothold.

Compared to leaving, Cheng Zesheng believed that he was still at home, maybe he used a small mechanism to open the door to attract himself, quickly left this room and hid in another place.

He inspected the room again, and sighed with regret: he thought he had an extra good neighbor, but it turned out to be a good one, and he brought in a gentleman.Tonight he was tormented enough, if someone is caught, he must be squatted in the detention center for ten days and a half months.

Cheng Zesheng closed the door, and went to check his room again.After the upstairs investigation was over, he turned on his small flashlight, starting from the entrance, not letting go of every corner.In the washbasin, Cheng Zesheng picked up a piece of hair, brownish in color and soft, not his, and immediately put it in a fresh-keeping bag temporarily used as an evidence bag.

The flashlight hit the locker in the kitchen, and an unusual reflection flashed across.Cheng Zesheng stared at the handle of the locker. It was made of metal, and there were two symmetrical pieces of round brown glass at the bottom, but one of them... He squinted his eyes, took a closer look, and was suddenly surprised: a miniature camera!

This is the new dormitory just assigned by the bureau, and it is actually equipped with a miniature camera. Who is monitoring his every move?Bureau Huang or his father?

Thinking of this possibility, Cheng Zesheng became so angry that he couldn't suppress it. He searched the house and finally found five of them.He found a sharp knife and removed the camera disguised as glass. The body was only the size of a little finger, with a code engraved on it. It was not a cheap product on the market, but a product developed internally by their public security system.

Cheng Zesheng acted swiftly, dismantled all five cameras, arranged them on the table in a row, took pictures and sent them to Huang Zhanwei.

He Wei finally came out of the room. The signals of several monitoring screens on his computer had all been lost. He never expected that a dead person would be several times smarter than a living person, able to find all those hidden cameras.Even if a current colleague came, it would take a lot of effort to find them all, but he was able to complete them in such a short period of time, which is quite capable.

It was already midnight at this moment, and Bureau Huang had already gone to bed in his old age, and had not replied to the letter.Cheng Zesheng sent the photos to Xiao Chen of the Technical Detective, and asked if the batch of miniature cameras were received from them.

Xiao Chen replied: [?Where is the camera?Brother Cheng, how do you send an empty desktop]

Cheng Zesheng clicked on it and saw that the picture in the album was clearly five black miniature cameras placed side by side, but after sending it to Xiao Chen, there was only one coffee table top, which was clean and empty.

Cheng Zesheng was surprised, so he called Xiao Chen directly, putting aside the supernatural incident first, and asked, "Have you recently issued a batch of miniature cameras whose serial numbers start with SZQ?"

"Eh? Brother Cheng, how do you know? We only got it last week! It hasn't been announced to the public yet."

"Don't worry about how I know, is there someone to get it? Did the Yellow Bureau ask you for it?"

Xiao Chen immediately replied: "No, these batches are new products developed internally. We haven't tested the performance yet, so how can we give them to others."

The hour and minute hands of the quartz clock overlapped, pointing to the number "12", and the piano sound sounded on the hour.

When the piano sounded, ripples invisible to the naked eye slowly swayed in the apartment, like ripples on a calm lake.

He Wei stood at the stairs, no, the piano sound that chimes the zero o'clock is different from before.Usually at this time, he was either in the bureau or already asleep. Today was the first time he heard the time chime at midnight. It was not pleasant, and the tune was casual and careless.

Cheng Zesheng also noticed that this piece of music was a bit familiar, and suddenly remembered, isn't this exactly the numbered notation in He Wei's phone? !Lian Jingyuan had played it several times at that time, and unconsciously it left a deep impression on him as a music idiot.

"Brother Cheng, what exactly do you want to ask me when you call? It's in the middle of the night..." Xiao Chen yawned.

"Don't talk yet." Cheng Zesheng walked to the quartz clock and stood on tiptoe, lifted the clock face, and found a USB socket on the back, "Xiao Chen, come tomorrow and help me look at something."

He Wei raised his head suddenly, staring at the direction of the quartz clock, his eyes widened.

He heard it.

The deep and clear voice belonged to a man, especially clear in the dark and silent night.The clock face of the quartz clock was raised at an angle, as if someone was standing there looking at it, and his tone didn't sound like he was talking to himself, but rather he was talking to someone on the phone.

"...Cheng Zesheng?"

Cheng Zesheng was stunned and turned his head slowly.There was nothing behind him, but just at that moment, his name was called out by a slightly cold voice.

"Is that Cheng Zesheng? Answer me."

Cheng Zesheng slowly put down the phone, this time it was not only the sound of talking, but also accompanied by the sound of footsteps from far to near, patter patter, and finally stopped by his side.

The hot air coming in and out, according to the clarity of the breathing sound, the distance between the two is less than ten centimeters.

Cheng Zesheng has never been so nervous. Back then, he was able to stay calm when faced with a gun on his forehead, and he could even swear, "Your uncle's."But at this moment, the heart is jumping out of the chest, and the adrenaline is also soaring.He pinched the tiger's mouth hard and forced himself to calm down: "Who are you?"

"What danger."

Team He took a chair and sat down, faced the air, and put on a pre-trial tone, "Tell me, what are you doing at my house?"
