The next day.

Female reporter Zhong Xueran only rested for less than five hours before running to Fucheng Police Station. She had communicated with Criminal Police Captain Bai Yang yesterday. She came to get her camera and photos back.

The manuscript must be published before noon, and of course as soon as possible.

However, as soon as she arrived at the police station, she heard bad news.

"Captain Yang? Ah...Captain Yang isn't here. He hasn't come back since he went out last night."

Xia Nan yawned and said to Zhong Xueran with sleepy eyes.

He was the one who basically didn't sleep much all night.

Last night, after Bai Yang left the police station, the police received an order directly from the top——

Immediately rush to No. 56, Central Street, to determine the specific residence of a man named Shen Shi. A faceless corpse will appear in his house tonight.

Although this news can be called a fantasy, but the official level is overwhelming, even if everyone doesn't believe it, they can only take action.

In the opinion of the old detective, there is only one outcome for being able to predict the facts of a crime in such detail. The predictor is a person with connections, or even the murderer himself.

The dissatisfied old detectives looked for clues to find out where the higher-ups got this kind of information.

However, the answers they received made them a little annoyed...

"It's the woman arrested this morning, the one who spread rumors on the Internet!"

As soon as these words came out, they all immediately stopped. After so many years in the bureau, who doesn't know two forensic friends?

The largest group of fans of the so-called "rumor spreaders" are forensic doctors.

The veteran detectives also know some rumors, such as... In fact, faceless corpses appear every year, and the DNA sequencing of those faceless corpses is completely blank!

That’s right…blank.

Human beings have their own DNA sequence, but there is no such thing on those faceless corpses, it doesn't exist...

It’s understandable even if the sequencing fails, but it doesn’t exist…

This was what most impacted the worldview of the forensic doctors, and it was also based on this that they re-examined the "rumors" on the Internet.

The rumors were highly consistent with the reality they encountered, so it was no wonder they had wild thoughts.

The existence of this kind of thing simply subverted all my past perceptions.

Last night, when everyone heard that the source of the news was the woman whom the forensic doctors trusted, the police actually believed most of it.

So everyone was extremely careful when rushing to the location of the wreckage.

It's a pity that even so, Shen Kui still took advantage of the opportunity and escaped.

But...the woman's words still came true.

Xia Nan yawned. Even if it was a big deal now, it couldn't be worth a good sleep.

But how could Zhong Xueran give up and immediately reached out his hand: "Please return the camera to me."

Xia Nan pointed casually: "Go over there and ask. It's probably in the technical department."

Zhong Xue walked in the direction pointed by Xia Nan in a hurry. She had already agreed, but Bai Yang didn't keep his word!

Arriving at the door of the Technology Department, Zhong Xueran knocked on the open door: "Excuse me, can I come in? I'm here to get my camera."

The veteran police officer from the technical section took off his reading glasses, lowered his head and looked up at the door: "Oh, it's you. Captain Bai said that the camera must be returned to you."

With that said, the old police officer opened the drawer, took out a camera, walked to the door and handed it to Zhong Xueran.

"Currently, the information released by our police is that it rained heavily yesterday and the river overflowed. A pedestrian slipped and fell into the river and unfortunately died."

"Most of the photos have been deleted, leaving you with two photos of corpses floating in the river. Just use them."

The old police officer waved his hands, as if seeing off guests.

Zhong Xueran took the camera. She had already guessed the result and knew that nothing she said would be of any use. What's more, this was not something that the old police officer from the technical department could change.

This time, she saw the faceless corpse with her own eyes, and the strange appearance made her almost certain that there must be an astonishing inside story to this matter.

Similar things have been happening in Xiajiang Village in the past few decades. It is definitely not a coincidence!

Even... maybe this is some kind of cult's sacrificial activity.

At the moment, although the official level has chosen to whitewash the situation, they have nothing to do with it.

Zhong Xueran put away the camera and left the police station. She was determined to find out all this by herself!

After making up his mind, Zhong Xueran immediately opened his small satchel, took out a notebook, and opened it to find some clues he had written down on it.

She witnessed the whole situation yesterday, and the strangest one was Qin Manjiang.

Next is the female doctor.

Although the two people concealed themselves very well, she couldn't stop her attention from focusing on them, so she still found out.

That Doctor Xi and Qin Manjiang must know something.

Doctor Xi... Doctor Xi.

Zhong Xueran took out her mobile phone and opened her phone book. She remembered that she had left Dr. Xi's number before.

very good!

Sure enough there is.

Zhong Xueran is a person who dares to think and act. She didn't hesitate and pressed the dial button immediately.

After ringing briefly for two seconds, the phone was picked up.

"Hi, hello." It was a female voice.

"Hello! I am Zhong Xueran, a reporter from Fucheng Daily. We have met, Dr. Xi. Excuse me... are you free for an exclusive interview?"

Zhong Xueran got straight to the point.

Xi Wutong over there didn't seem to expect that the other party would be so direct. She replied: "Sorry, I have some things to do today and don't have time."

Zhong Xueran paused. She knew that continuing to play riddles at this time would only make the other party fool her and not take her seriously.

If you want to get information from Xi Wutong, you must let the female doctor know that she is also the one who knows the "details".

"Really... What a pity. I originally wanted to chat with you about... the faceless corpse."

she said tentatively.

"If you want to know more about what happened last night, you can go to the police and ask for information. I'm sorry." Xi Wutong said as if he was about to hang up the phone.

Zhong Xueran paused and said, "No, I want to say something else."

"Dr. Xi, I found out that in the past few decades, murders have been occurring in Xiajiang Village at the rate of one faceless corpse a year. Therefore, Xiajiang Village also got the name Ghost Story Village."

"Perhaps it's a blessing in disguise. Xiajiang Village's notoriety makes people afraid to get too close. In recent years, except for a faceless corpse every year, no other accidents have happened."

"And the only time was last year."

Zhong Xueran's voice made Xi Wutong's eyes suddenly turn cold on the other end of the phone.

"Last year, a young woman unfortunately fell into the water and was rescued by the villagers. Speaking of which, she should be the only person who emerged from the river in Xiajiang Village not only alive, but also not a faceless person."

Zhong Xueran has something to say:

"Right, Dr. Xi suddenly appeared last year."

(I’m too busy this month, so there aren’t many updates. I’m sorry to ask for a monthly ticket. Please give me some if you’d like…)
