Chen Shi rushed outside and saw a scene that shattered common sense.
A headless, naked "person" wearing only red underwear was running rampant on the sidewalk. Passers-by screamed and fled. Vehicles on the road braked one after another. The driver behind unexpectedly collided with the car in front of him. The sound is endless.
The headless man swayed like drunk. If you observe carefully, you will find that its right hand is hanging down, its left leg is stepping forward, and the right leg is dragging forward. It has no sense of direction at all, and the path of travel is abnormally messy.
A woman was so frightened that she fell to the ground. A yellow liquid came out from under her skirt. When the headless man approached, the woman crawled back with her hands and feet on the ground, screaming in her mouth.
A vacuum zone formed around it. People were shocked and took out their mobile phones one after another.
The police stood at the door of the Public Security Bureau, completely stunned, all dumbfounded, Peng Sijue said, "Don't stand stupid, get the body back."
"Then... Is that a corpse?" someone stammered.
"Whatever it is, get it back quickly!"
The police rushed over, and a little policeman actually took out a gun and pointed at the headless man and shouted, "Don't move!"
"Don't shout, it's useless, it can't hear you." Chen Shi said.
Chen Shi stretched out his hand to grab the headless man’s arm. When his palm touched the ice and slippery skin, the headless man suddenly panicked, shook off Chen Shi’s palm, and dragged his right leg towards the road. He staggered on the road teeth, and then supported the ground with his left hand. When his palm touched the slightly hot concrete pavement, it seemed a little puzzled and paused for a few seconds.
The police took this opportunity to surround it, and when someone touched it, it was like a frightened animal, throwing its fists indiscriminately, and then slammed into the policeman in front of him. The strength was amazing, and it followed it. I hit the street lamp on the opposite side of the road, was bounced back, and fell to the ground.
It is like a fish leaving the water, lying on the ground and struggling. It seems to have dried up the last bit of vitality, and its left hand is drawing something on the ground.
The police immediately surrounded it, but no one dared to touch it, and several police officers even had guns in their hands.
A policeman asked: "It... Is it the one in the autopsy room?"
After painting for a long time, the headless man finally stopped moving. Chen Shi turned it over and tested his heartbeat. The heartbeat has stopped, but the chest is actually warm. This proves that the heart is still in a few seconds ago. beat.
Looking around at the cellphones held by the surrounding citizens, Chen Shi knew that this matter was no longer controllable, and a new urban ghost story was born at this moment.
Peng Sijue asked someone to fetch a body bag, put the headless man up, and lift it away. This ordinary action was described on the forum a few weeks later: "Several people are expressionless, well-trained and dressed in white. In the lab coat, the staff from the mysterious department rushed to the scene and packed the headless man into a black tarp bag with a zipper, with an unidentified number on it. The police at the scene did not show any signs of blocking. Obviously they had collected it in advance. Here comes the order from the top."
Lin Qiupu hurried back when he received the news. At this time, almost all the policemen of the second team gathered in the autopsy room, looking at the recovered body, and it was confirmed that it was Zhang Xiao's body.
"How many people witnessed it?" Lin Qiupu asked.
"Let's say there are hundreds..." Chen Shi took out his phone and flipped through Weibo. "Weibo has been exploded. This news is unstoppable."
Lin Qiupu helped his forehead helplessly, "How could something like this happen, who was on duty in the hall, and no one stopped a'corpse' from going out? Did it go out by itself?"
"We checked the surveillance, and it went out by itself." Lao Zhang said, "The police officer on duty said that an old lady used this place as a police station and came in to go through the procedures for relocation. He took the old lady away and showed him the way. , Standing outside the door, he saw the corpse when he ran out, but it was too late."
"Isn't the resurrection of the corpse related to this old lady?" Xu Xiaodong said in a panic.
Everyone looked at him at once, and then ignored his speculation. Peng Sijue said, "I will dissect it later and find out the reason for the'resurrection'."
"The biggest trouble caused by this incident is that the murderer may already know, and he will think that Zhang Xiao is not dead." Chen Shi said.
"So what if Zhang Xiao is not dead, is he going to come and kill him again?" Lin Qiupu said.
"Of course not, but in the eyes of the murderer, the'resurrected' Zhang Xiao is very likely to provide some clues, which will expose his identity, and he may take some radical measures. For the murderer, the most terrifying thing There is nothing better than the resurrection of the dead and the resurrection in front of the police."
"But this time he'resurrected', he didn't provide anything."
"No, he provided it!" Chen Shi raised his phone, "This is a video of him writing and drawing on the ground before his death. Let's see what he wrote."
Everyone came to the meeting room and projected this video on the white screen. After watching that video several times, everyone was at a loss and was completely infamous.
Lao Zhang said: "He rebelled so fiercely before, why did he write and paint before he died, leaving us with clues?"
Chen Shi said: "I guess he'woke up' and thought he was still at the murder scene and in front of the murderer, so the first thing he did was to escape. He couldn't see or hear, so when I met him, he He thought it was the murderer who wanted to catch him and fought hard, but he was taken aback when his hand touched the road. He probably realized that he was no longer at the scene of the murder, and there were other people standing around him, so he thought Leave a clue."
"Old Chen, are you not ill-spoken with these words?" Lin Dongxue pointed to her head, "He doesn't even have a head, how can he'think' and'realize'."
This question really puzzled Chen Shi, and he couldn't give a reasonable explanation, only waiting for Peng Sijue to get the answer.
"Hey, guys, what he wrote is not words!" Lin Qiupu played the video again. "Look at him drawing circles on the ground. There is no such sideline of words. He is drawing!"
So everyone took out a piece of paper, watched the video to restore the strokes of the deceased, and finally integrated all the observation results, and found that the deceased painted three villains.
"What clue is this!" a policeman complained. "Why didn't he write? He must know the name of the murderer."
"Three people, there are indeed three people at the scene. This clue is meaningless." Lin Qiupu said.
"The deceased was also the third to be killed, does that mean?" Lin Dongxue guessed.
"Could the sex worker be an accomplice?" Xu Xiaodong said.
Chen Shi was silent, the clue itself was too vague, but the three numbers reminded him one thing. Just as he was about to say it, there was a noisy voice outside, only to hear someone shouting: "You can't go in!"
Lin Qiupu got up and took a look, before closing the door immediately, his face was pale, "Oh, here comes the reporter!"
