dead person

Chapter 38 That's Not Fire, It's a Curse

The motorcycle had just stopped at the entrance of the village, and the two of them could smell the burnt smell of the fire in the air.Lao Li was still looking around with cat eyes, Zhou Yun patted him on the shoulder and walked over there first.

Old Li pursed his lips and had no choice but to follow behind him.This person has bad eyesight when he is old, so he is useless.

Zhou Yun turned around and took the bag in his hand, and the movement of his feet slowed down a bit, and the breathing of Lao Li who followed behind him gradually calmed down.

When they walked to the courtyard that had been completely burned by the fire, the two silent people stopped.Seeing the shocking burn marks, Lao Li frowned habitually.

Looking at the furnishings in the yard, there are definitely people living in this yard.As for whether the people living here are dead or alive, the two also guessed in their hearts.

After walking through the yard and taking two or three steps forward, Lao Li saw the scorched corpse under the weight.He stood there and looked at the remaining ornaments in the room, then turned around and walked to the half of the door, picked up a long and thin stick at the side, and picked up the tightly locked door button without a hitch. I opened my mouth back.

"Call the police."

"There is no signal in this village. Even if you want to ask the city criminal investigation team for help, you have to go back to the town first."

Lao Li was silent for a few seconds before retreating from the door with the small wooden stick.Some of the bricks on the ground were still warm, and the fire must have been burning for a long time.

"If I remember correctly, there should be people living next door to their house, should we go over and ask?"

Before Lao Li could speak, Zhou Yun had already left him behind and went to the next door.Lao Li looked at his back with some anger, who said that he only followed quietly when he wanted to come?

Zhou Yun urged Lao Li a few more times, rolled up his sleeves, and hammered on the door of the neighbor next door.How difficult it is to open the door in this village, he has already experienced it once.

The door was hammered loudly, and Du Enping stood in the yard with a sullen face. He heard the young man outside yelling that he would climb over the wall if he didn't open the door, so he reluctantly opened the door. .

He leaned against the door with his whole body, only half of his face was exposed through the crack of the door, he looked at Zhou Yun standing outside the door with displeasure, and did not speak.

Seeing him open the door, Zhou Yun was amused, and quickly pushed Lao Li to the front.

"Don't be impatient, someone died next door to you, the police will ask you."

The word "dead" made Du Enping's face as dark as the charcoal of Wenlong's family.He looked impatiently at Lao Li, who was holding his police ID in front of him, and glanced at him: "You can't control the affairs of our village, so go away."

The courtyard door closed so quickly that it almost caught Lao Li's hand out.Lao Li patted the courtyard door a few times without haste: "I just want to ask, do you know how the fire next door started?"

Du Enping only locked the courtyard door tightly, and tightened his neckline with both hands, feeling that the early morning wind blowing through the neckline made him feel cold all over his body.

"That's not fire, it's a curse!"

"The curse will never stop. What are you people doing in a small village like ours? If it wasn't for you, none of us would have died."

"It's all your fault."

He leaned half against the wall, staring blankly at the direction of the next door.He also heard the sound of the burning fire last night, and he also heard the voice of a living person.

"It must be a ghost. The ghost has found it. All of us will die."

Zhou Yuncai didn't care what he was thinking, just looking at the tightly closed courtyard door in front of him felt uncomfortable.

"It's just something wrong, what kind of ghosts and ghosts, what curses are you talking about? I think you will be the next one to die."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a scream in the yard.Immediately afterwards, he heard that someone added something to the back of the door to seal it even tighter.

"No, it won't be mine. The next one will definitely not be me..."

"Not me, not me..."

Zhou Yun gasped through his teeth, stepped back a few steps, rolled up his sleeves and was about to climb over the wall.

Lao Li walked up to him and grabbed the hat on the back of his down jacket: "What are you arguing with him, let's hurry back to town."

"Then these shoes?"

"Take me to the city together."

After Lao Li finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the direction where the motorcycle was parked without looking back.Liu Ming hasn't come back for so long, I'm afraid his side is not going well.

In such a big fire, even if one person was burned to death, no one in the whole village came out to take a look.This village is really weird.

Moreover, the scratches on the side of the door were clearly caused by someone locking it from the outside, and the people inside pulling the door after the fire broke out.That person was clearly murdered.

And the murderer is definitely in this village.

He focused his eyes on the path under his feet and walked fast, wishing he could lead someone to search the entire village right away.

Also, for those people who died in the cemetery before, were the causes of death really accidental and suicide?

After riding the motorcycle, Lao Li patted Zhou Yun on the shoulder: "Go straight to the city, wait for Liu Ming to come back and talk a little bit, it should be tomorrow again."

The playful look on Zhou Yun's face under the helmet had long since disappeared. He bent down and leaned on the fuel tank of the motorcycle, and the motorcycle rushed out as if taking off with one kick of the accelerator.

"You said, is he still alive in the long run?"

Lao Li nervously grasped the clothes on his back, and asked at the top of his voice, "What did you just say?"

The only answers to him were the whistling wind in his ears, and Zhou Yun's frantic honking of the horn all the way. The bad-tempered drivers he met on the impatient road always had to swear a few words.

Under Lao Li's command, the motorcycle stopped at the gate of the Municipal Criminal Investigation Brigade.Liu Ming, who had been squatting on the edge of the green belt for most of the day, rushed towards the two of them as if seeing a savior.

"Uncle Li, why are you here? People from their criminal investigation brigade went out early this morning and haven't come back yet?"

"I have something important to do." Lao Li stood at the door and looked inside, grabbed Liu Ming who was circling around the motorcycle, "Are you sure they are not inside? Did you also ask the person I asked you to ask?" ?”

Liu Ming turned around and pointed at the policeman on duty: "Ask, if you don't believe me, you can ask him. He said that their guards took people out early in the morning..."

The eyes of Lao Li and the policeman met in the air for a moment, and then turned away.He turned his head and looked in the direction of the office of the Municipal Criminal Investigation Brigade, rubbed his hands in his pockets on the phone for a long time before he gritted his teeth and took out the phone.

As soon as the phone rang, the eyes of the three people all fell on Lao Li.Liu Ming and the policeman looked at each other, their eyes were full of doubts.

This... Why do you have people squatting at the gate and waiting for a long time if you have contact information?

Lao Li put the phone close to his ear, turned around and walked a few steps in the direction of the green belt, avoiding the eyes of several people.His palms were sweating nervously, making him feel that the mobile phone in his hand was a little unstable for a while.

After the call was answered, neither side spoke.

Lao Li held the phone in front of his eyes, took a closer look at the call time which had already started counting down, licked his dry lips, and was thinking about how to speak, when a deep voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Hey, Brother Li..."

All of a sudden, Lao Li was full of emotions.He originally thought that he would never have anything to do with Wei Qinglong again in this lifetime...

"I... I encountered a case, and I didn't have enough staff, so I wanted to..."

The other side of the phone was silent for two seconds, and Lao Li could hear him say something to the people around him in a low voice, and then he heard him continue: "Brother Li, I'm about to finish work, you go to the office and wait for me, I will immediately Just come back."

Lao Li hummed and hung up the phone, and the phone in the duty room rang immediately.The police who had been standing all day hurriedly led them to the office inside.

Lao Li led them to sit on the bench outside the office, thinking about something with a sad look on their faces.

Liu Ming leaned in front of Zhou Yun and whispered, "What do you think Uncle Li has to do with that guard?"

Zhou Yun rolled his eyes at him, and sat up straight.In such a place, he could not help but feel a little restrained.

After the car came to a complete stop, Wei Qinglong strode in. When he saw Lao Li sitting on the bench, his footsteps stopped.

Lao Li stood up first, looked left and right, and Wei Qinglong quickly opened the door of the office.Holding the doorknob in his hand, he waited until Lao Li walked in first, then silently followed behind him.

Just like when he was a rookie a few years ago.

"I suspect that there is a serial murder case in one of our villages." Lao Li thought for a long time, trying to express all the information concisely.

What he said, let alone Wei Qinglong, even Zhou Yun and Liu Ming were shocked.

Wei Qinglong's expression became serious, and the original emotions in his heart were instantly thrown out of the sky.What kind of temperament is Lao Li, I am afraid that he is the one who knows best among the few people present.

Since he dared to say that, I'm afraid this matter is true.

"Do you have evidence?" When it came to work, Wei Qinglong's voice became even deeper, and Liu Ming, who was listening, was also sitting upright, and his breathing was a little lighter, for fear that Wei Qinglong would turn around suddenly. Glance at him.

"I was just skeptical before, but I am almost convinced this morning."

Lao Li told all about the morning, and then handed the bag that Zhou Yun was carrying to Wei Qinglong: "Check this pair of shoes for me to see if there is any problem, I always think the owner of this pair of shoes should has also been killed."

Wei Qinglong's expression became more and more serious, and when Lao Li finished speaking, he turned around and made several phone calls, and then called the policeman on duty from outside, and put the two broken wooden boards that Liu Ming was carrying with the The pair of shoes brought him to the laboratory together.

"Brother Li, let's go straight away. After a while, the rest of them will be almost busy, and a few people will be drawn to come over later."
