Although I think this guess is ridiculous, it does seem possible. And for some reason, this premonition is getting stronger and stronger.
Zhou Ze's eyes narrowed slightly.
He reached out and touched the bronze ring he had always worn on the ring finger of his left hand.
This ring was obtained in Sanxiang Village, and then given to the one who regained consciousness in Jiangjun Mountain and used once.
After that,
I never used it again.
Boss Zhou has quite a few treasures like this.
For example, the Yin-Yang Book cannot be used yet. Even though the Taoist priest brought weasels and snakes, they could not come out. Later, the Taoist priest stewed a pot of soup and everyone drank it.
The evil pen was only used to seal that consciousness for the first time, and it was never used again;
The same goes for this ring.
This is a bit like playing an online game. When you get a piece of amazing equipment and want to wear it out to show off, you are reminded that you cannot equip it because your level is not high enough.
This bronze ring can be used to form a large barrier, but if Zhou Ze uses it alone, it can only form an illusion that will "entangle" himself.
In short, it is a bit like VR glasses, but you can design a simple and rough scene by yourself. It can't confuse others, but only yourself.
What a useless usage.
The blue light curtain slowly expanded.
But in the eyes of the old Taoist priests around him,
The boss suddenly stood there motionless, without even blinking, and there seemed to be a blue light flowing in his eyes.
The Taoist priest hesitated for a moment, squatted down, and waved his hand in front of the boss, but the boss still did not respond.
"boss?"
The old Taoist called out softly,
But I didn't dare to touch it.
On Zhou Ze's side, the small road beside him was constantly changing.
He had read the files, and although there were no photos of the victim's identity, there were photographic records of the scene where the body was dumped.
At this moment,
The road next to Zhou Ze began to slowly degenerate and became an asphalt road.
The street lights on both sides of the road also began to disappear gradually.
Simple,
Dark,
It has become the main color now.
The green vegetation behind Zhou Ze and the pedestrian street in the distance began to slowly disappear, and in its place was a textile factory.
The general pattern is what it is now. Zhou Ze cannot make it more specific or grand.
A young woman came from one end of the asphalt road.
What she looked like and what she was wearing were all very vague. All we knew was that she was a young... woman.
Boss Zhou didn't add anything unnecessary. Just let it be a mosaic. It's fine as long as you can use it for its intended purpose.
Um,
It's too bright.
For a time,
The sky darkened.
When the woman walked in front of Zhou Ze,
Suddenly, a black shadow rushed out from behind. Zhou Ze designed this black shadow to be the one commonly used in "Detective Conan".
The shadow rushed towards the woman.
Haven't started yet.
Zhou Ze frowned again.
wrong,
This might not be the place to start.
This is the scene of a body dumping, not a murder scene. It is impossible for the murderer to kill and dismember the person here, even at night.
The picture began to distort.
The scene was still the same, but the girl was gone.
Conan's shadow is still there.
He was holding a plastic bag.
Start walking again from the other end of the road,
Then he put the plastic bag on the ground and left.
Zhou Ze raised his head.
Behind the window of a room on a certain floor of the apartment building opposite that didn't look that old,
A dark shadow emerged.
A passerby appeared and found the bag and the meat inside. It was obviously fresh and not rotten. He picked up the meat and went back happily.
The dark shadow was right above, staring down.
It was as if he was appreciating all of this, appreciating his own... prank,
You can also see the white teeth of the dark shadow.
He is here.
laugh.
A feeling of fatigue came over me.
Zhou Ze closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, everything was back to normal. The old Taoist was squatting in front of him, his face almost touching his.
“What are you doing!”
"ah!"
The old Taoist was so frightened that he sat down on the ground.
"Boss, I saw you suddenly sitting there motionless. I was scared."
Zhou Ze rubbed his forehead, feeling a little annoyed.
The biggest problem now is actually the death of the old lady selling newspapers. Is her death related to the corpse dumping case sixteen years ago
If there is a connection, why did the murderer kill her again
Just then, Zhou Ze's cell phone rang. It was Lawyer An calling.
"Hello."
"Hey, boss, where are you?"
"At the Little Stone Bridge, what happened?"
"I found a few places nearby that are suitable for brushing up your GPA. Are you free? Let's go check it out."
Lawyer An has been busy working on Zhou Ze's promotion to captain of the police.
"In two days."
"That's fine. There's no rush anyway. So what are you doing?"
"Investigate the case."
"Oh, this is a good hobby. Very good. Then I will go to the usual place to eat alone. Do you want to come with me?"
"Lao An, do you know anything about corpses?" Zhou Ze suddenly asked.
Because he remembered that Lawyer An was an expert in dealing with frozen corpses. He basically produced, sold and used them himself, with no middlemen making a profit from the difference.
"Hmm?" Lawyer An immediately replied, "Not very familiar. "
sometimes,
Salted fish,
They can sense each other.
Lawyer An didn't look honest at first glance, and he showed an attitude of "I don't want to meddle in other people's business", which was very similar to Zhou Ze's mentality, so Zhou Ze felt it.
No, I can't.
Is too lazy to be able to.
Rather than doing something as boring as investigating a case, Lawyer An prefers to look for young models from his club.
"Come and help me investigate. I'll send you my current location."
"Boss, this..."
"I didn't want to get involved, but the old woman who just talked to me yesterday was killed right after I left. This makes me very uncomfortable."
Boss Zhou doesn't have the broad mind of a "people's policeman" like Lao Zhang.
But what if the murderer had passed by me yesterday, or was really standing on the old apartment building in front watching me and others, and finally killed the old woman.
This made Zhou Ze feel very unhappy.
Lawyer An came anyway, very reluctantly. He drove his luxury car to the side of the road, rolled down the window, and asked curiously:
"Where's the body?"
"A body?"
"Yeah, where's the body, boss? Has it been disposed of?"
"The crime scene is not here." Zhou Ze explained.
Lawyer An lit a cigarette, smiled, and said:
"Forget it. Now that we are here, let's help to the end. Call Lao Zhang and ask him to make the arrangements. I want to 'see' the body alone."
"good."
… … …
In the police station's forensic room, the body has been preliminarily processed and is ready for an autopsy.
Old Zhang had to force himself to ask the female forensic doctor and her assistant to leave first, which made the people in the forensic room very confused, and actually it was not against the rules to do so.
It's just that Lao Zhang is now the new version of "a new official makes three big moves upon taking office", and no one wants to be afraid of him at this time. Judging from the behavior of the new criminal police captain after taking office, he is obviously a senior veteran criminal policeman. What if he is planning to make an example of him to scare the monkeys and establish his authority
Lao Zhang wiped the sweat from his forehead. He knew that this was against the rules. He drove all the forensic doctors out and brought outsiders in to see the body.
But since my rebirth,
Lao Zhang has completely let himself go.
As long as the real murderer can be found and justice done to the deceased, whether this process complies with the rules is no longer within Lao Zhang's consideration.
Most importantly, he himself knew that unless a miracle happened, there was basically no hope of solving the case from sixteen years ago by human power. He could only hope that "non-human" people like his boss would come up with a way to break the deadlock.
Lawyer An was observing the body and said thankfully, "It's a good thing that the autopsy hasn't been done yet, otherwise I wouldn't be able to do anything."
"What are you going to do?" Zhou Ze asked.
"Haha, corpses have memories. To be more precise, human memories are not only stored in their souls. For example, athletes can rely on long-term and high-intensity training to form inertial memory in their muscles and bodies, which can save time for thinking and reaction."
"Can you read the memories of the dead?" Zhou Ze asked.
Hearing this,
The old Taoist next to him was suddenly stunned.
Lawyer An shook his head. "I'm sorry, I don't have the ability to read it directly. Maybe someone else does."
"Isn't this just nonsense?" Lao Zhang said helplessly.
"We can't read it, but we can let the corpse tell us." Lawyer An took off the glove on his left hand. As he spoke, the flesh on his left hand began to slowly fade away, revealing the eerie white bones.
The five finger bones kept bending and straightening, giving people an extremely strange feeling.
"Everyone, spread out. Now is the time to witness a miracle."
Lawyer An placed his bony palm on the dead man's forehead.
Red lines began to radiate from his bony palms, one by one, gradually covering the entire corpse.
Then, Lawyer An withdrew his hand and reminded:
"With my level, I can only stimulate the corpse to do what it was doing five minutes before death. Moreover, this technique can only be used once for each corpse. I improved the method of the corpse-driving masters in Xiangxi to come up with this."
As soon as the words fell,
The old woman who was lying quietly on the steel bed suddenly opened her eyes.
then,
Her body began to move very stiffly but firmly.
She raised her hands, slightly bent,
Her feet kept lifting up and down.
The whole person was squirming on the steel bed in an extremely uncoordinated posture, looking extremely weird.
"What is she doing?" asked the old Taoist after seeing this scene.
Zhou Ze hesitated for a moment and replied:
"She's... riding a tricycle."
