Looking at the state of this person, it is obvious that he is dead, and the murderer is very cruel. He actually twisted his head back. Judging from the facial expression of the deceased, he must have experienced very terrible pain before his death, which made him look so hideous.
Originally, we were checking a group of dummies, and the purpose of the inspection was to find a hidden real person among the group of dummies. But who could have thought that we would see such a horrible corpse among this group of dummies? The sudden visual impact scared me so much that my body trembled violently, and I screamed like a woman on the spot!
Lin Yingxue was also startled, and the moment she saw the corpse clearly, she immediately hugged me tightly. On the other hand, Xiao Chen behind us was very calm, and kept holding the flashlight and shining it on the corpse in front of him.
While we were frightened, we did not forget to identify the identity of the body. Although the face of the body had become extremely hideous, I could still tell from the clothes and facial features that it was the security guard Xiao Wei who escaped at the beginning!
When we were on the first floor, the security guard Xiao Wei suddenly turned around and ran away like crazy. Bai Longfei also lost contact with us when he was chasing Xiao Wei. We thought Xiao Wei must have been trying to risk his life to escape from here, but who would have thought that he had died here! I was wondering why I didn't hear any movement from him for a long time.
But if Xiao Wei was already dead, who killed him? What about the White Dragon Flying Man who was chasing Xiao Wei and also had no whereabouts? Could it be that White Dragon Flying Man killed Xiao Wei
All the doubts lingered in my mind, but at the same time, I found that Xiao Chen behind me was still very calm, and even the light from the flashlight in his hand did not show any signs of trembling. It seemed that he was not frightened by the situation.
"You are really amazing. I didn't realize you are so brave." I smiled and turned to look at Xiao Chen. But when I turned around, I found that Xiao Chen seemed to have turned into a dummy. He was completely lifeless, staring at the corpse in front of him with a dull look, standing there motionless.
Confused, I reached out my hand and pushed him, but before I could use any force, Xiao Chen fell backwards stiffly. I had no time to hold him, and he fell heavily to the ground. Because of this fall, his dull eyes finally came to life, and the expression on his face instantly turned into fear. He screamed in fear and crawled desperately towards the back.
When I saw Xiao Chen's reaction, I was a little amused. I thought he didn't react because he was brave, but it turned out that he was just scared.
I ignored Xiao Chen and turned around to check the body of the security guard Xiao Wei in front of me. Now I was not so scared anymore, so I reached out and laid Xiao Wei's body flat on the ground. Anyway, time was pressing and I couldn't care less about protecting the scene.
"Xiaoxue, help me find out how he died."
I asked Lin Yingxue to investigate the cause of death of security guard Xiao Wei, while I looked around Xiao Wei to see if I could find any clues about Bai Longfei.
Xiao Wei's clothes were very dirty, covered with a lot of dust. If you look closely, you can even see some traces of spider webs. It was obvious that he had been hiding somewhere before. I looked at his body carefully and found that the right side of his body was still very clean, without any dust or anything like that. Judging from this, when he was hiding, there should have been someone hiding with him!
Needless to say, this person must be Bai Longfei! But why did they choose to hide at that time? What dangerous things did they encounter? In short, they must have a reason to hide! Now there is only the body of the security guard Xiao Wei, which makes me even more worried about Bai Longfei's safety.
Xiao Chen behind us had recovered from his fright. He slowly walked over and stared at the body of security guard Xiao Wei, asking this and that, but we ignored him.
After about a minute, Lin Yingxue stood up and said, "Judging from the twisted neck, his neck must have been broken alive. Ji Wen, you should understand what I want to say."
Of course I understand what Lin Yingxue means. If a person can twist another person's neck to 180 degrees, then this person must be very strong! However, when I think of great strength, the only figure that comes to my mind is Bai Longfei. Could it be that the one who killed the security guard Xiao Wei was really Bai Longfei
We don't have time to investigate in detail now. Judging from the surface information alone, it is very likely that Bai Longfei killed the security guard Xiao Wei! But despite this, I still have no doubts about Bai Longfei. I believe that even if he really killed the person, he has a reason to kill. It is absolutely impossible to kill for no reason! Maybe this security guard Xiao Wei has some connection with the person who controlled the bomb, and has threatened the lives of all of us, so Bai Longfei killed him.
I really didn't feel like speculating any further about the death of security guard Xiao Wei, because I felt that his death should have nothing to do with the mystery of Director Zhao's death that we were going to solve this time. And just now I looked at the time, there were only 35 minutes left until one o'clock, there was no time to waste any more, so I immediately stood up and said, "Okay, since there's nothing to check here, let's go to the archives room and take a look."
Lin Yingxue nodded, but Xiao Chen seemed to still be immersed in the shadow of the death of security guard Xiao Wei. I pulled him up and dragged him out of the prop room in a hurry, walking quickly towards the archive room on the other side of the corridor.
Although we haven't found the source of the footsteps mentioned by Xiao Chen, we somehow found the body of the security guard Xiao Wei. But time does not allow us to continue searching, so we might as well not look for him and let him come out by himself!
After we walked to the other end of the corridor, we found that there were indeed two connected rooms. I asked Xiao Chen to stand at the stairs and guard. If there was any movement in the prop room, he should notify us immediately. I had to find Director Zhao's file as soon as possible.
Xiao Chen was obviously very reluctant and he haggled with us for a long time before finally agreeing to stand where we could see him so that he would feel safe.
After we entered the archive room, we immediately looked for the catalog among the piles of files and soon found the files of the employees on the tenth floor of the newspaper. We anxiously searched for Director Zhao's file among the row of bookshelves, hoping that his file was still there.
About a minute later, Lin Yingxue, who was searching on the other side, suddenly said, "Come here, I found it!"
When I heard that Lin Yingxue had been found, I was overjoyed. I ran over and saw that she was holding a brown paper bag with "Zhao XX, Office Director on the Tenth Floor" clearly written on it.
I didn't bother to open the file bag carefully. I just tore it open, took out a few sheets of paper inside, and began to read quickly under the light of the flashlight in Lin Yingxue's hand.
This file records Director Zhao's personal information and some major events after he joined the company. Director Zhao's wife indeed passed away a few years ago, and Director Zhao also has a son. The file does not record the specific situation of his son, but judging from his age, his son should be in his twenties.
"Since Director Zhao has a son, do you think the person who controlled the bomb this time is his son? Maybe his son felt that Director Zhao's death was too strange, so he asked you to investigate the real cause of Director Zhao's death in this way?" Lin Yingxue also finished reading the resume and turned to me.
I didn't answer her. I quickly scanned some of the major events recorded by Director Zhao, and finally found a lot of useful information on the last page!
In October last year, Director Zhao reported Li Gang for being lazy and absent from work, which led to Li Gang being demoted from a senior electrician to a surveillance maintenance worker.
In December last year, Director Zhao reported that the current office director had misappropriated public funds. The matter has not been verified yet, so the report is temporarily kept under investigation.
In March this year, Director Zhao reported that Zhou Jingyi had behaved improperly and secretly leaked news materials. The matter is still under investigation and Zhou Jingyi is not allowed to be converted to a regular employee during the investigation period.
The next three messages are all about three people we are familiar with, which proves that Director Zhao has a grudge against those three people. In other words, these three people all have motives to kill because Director Zhao has made them unhappy.
But how can I find out who is the real mastermind behind the murder of Director Zhao among these three people? I think I can only start from the information in their respective offices on the tenth floor!
"Xiao Chen, I remember you said that Director Zhao filed a layoff application. Where do you think this layoff application should be placed?"
I turned around and shouted to Xiao Chen outside, and Xiao Chen outside replied: "It should be in the president's office on the top floor, but the application was submitted more than a month ago. I wonder if it can be found now?"
It is too risky for us to go to the top floor now. Although I am very eager to see the content and list of the application, the overall situation is more important now, so I continued to ask: "Do you think that Zhou Jingyi, Ma Jie, Li Gang and the current office director are also on Director Zhao's layoff list?"
"I think it's very likely. The people on the tenth floor have the most problems and gossip in the entire newspaper office. Moreover, the work efficiency of the tenth floor has always been at the bottom of the entire newspaper office. If there is a layoff, they will definitely be on the list!"
Xiao Chen was talking to us when suddenly his voice rose several degrees and he let out an ear-piercing scream, then exclaimed, "There's a ghost! There's a ghost!"
