Chapter 101: Dead overnight

Views:

Something will occur if it belongs to your life, if not, do not push it.

You can see the sunset in the sky, and the name and interest seem to be misted.

Although there are only a few short words, these two sentences can tell the heart of the prodigal son. Human nature is kind and simple, but in a dangerous world, it is inevitable that people will be tempted by money, etc. and become degenerate. There is a saying that "the return of a prodigal son cannot be exchanged for gold". When a person wanders through this sinister world, has worked hard, achieved and fallen, and finally can still get back to his spirituality and restore his good nature, then of course it is worth nothing. It's just that among the many prodigal sons, how many precious ones know how to "go back"

I am Mu Shenyu, an offbeat detective. The reason I say offbeat is because the department I belong to is under normal circumstances, and it is impossible for outsiders to know. Even if someone complained to the procuratorate that day, they could only know that I belong to the Criminal Investigation Bureau, but in fact the department I belong to is not under the jurisdiction of the Criminal Investigation Bureau. The "Cheat Team" I belonged to was established by the director of the Public Security Department, and directly under the director's orders to investigate some supernatural events. Because there may be some factors in these cases that may cause panic among the public, in the process of handling the cases, our group has the right to refrain from normal interrogation procedures and not to disclose any information in the case to the public.

Now, what I want to tell you is a story about a prodigal son, of course, this is not an ordinary prodigal son, or what he encountered is not an experience that an ordinary prodigal son can have, or it will not be alarmed by the "conspiracy" Group".

I saw our boss, Liang Zheng, the team leader, walk into the office early this morning with a smile on his face. I think we probably have work to do again. Sure enough, as soon as he came in, he threw a file on my desk and smiled slyly: "There is a strange case in Yuanming New Village, you and Zhen Zhen go in and investigate."

Zhen Zhen was originally bored, but when she heard the boss's words, she immediately jumped up and asked excitedly: "What kind of strange case, did you find a monster?"

"Isn't it haunted again!" Viagra interjected in a strange way, Zhen Zhen shivered immediately, after glaring at him, she asked the boss a little timidly, "It shouldn't be haunted, right?"

The boss reprimanded with a stern face: "I see that you either watch too many horror movies, or you are too close to Amu, and you talk about ghosts all day long. There will be ghosts in this world, and so many people have died since ancient times. If They will all become ghosts, the earth has long been full of ghosts, and there is still a place for you."

Zhen Zhen smiled foolishly: "That's right, it's all Amu's fault, he's been a ghost all day long, it made me think that there really are ghosts in this world."

Viagra interjected again: "That can't be said. Although we don't see it, we can't deny the existence of ghosts and gods. For example, an induction cooker uses a magnetic field to induce electric current to heat food. Although we can't see the electric current, it can heat food. It's a fact."

This time it was the boss's turn to stare at him: "Have you done what I told you to do? There are still several file cabinets waiting for you to enter the computer, you still have time to brag. If you don't enter all the information into the computer, you will Don't think about getting off work!"

Viagra flew his hands on the keyboard, glanced at the mountains of files on the desk, and muttered to himself with infinite emotion: "Longyou was played by shrimps in shallow water, tigers fell and Pingyang was bullied by dogs. A hairy phoenix is not as good as a chicken..." He shook his head and sighed as he spoke, as if a hero was in trouble.

"Okay, don't say what the hell, God, Amu, have you read it yet?" The boss raised his hand and looked at me.

I put down the file and frowned: "It's really incredible, the deceased in this case was only twenty-eight years old, and he was alive and well the day before yesterday, but he died suddenly yesterday morning, and he looked like an old man in his eighties. More Strangely, the cause of death was natural aging."

The boss looked at me and smiled slyly: "What do you think caused the deceased to change from a twenty-eight-year-old to an eighty-year-old in a very short period of time?"

After thinking about the prescription, I replied: "I heard from Liu Nian before that lead poisoning will make people show signs of premature aging, but it also takes a long process. And the deceased in this case did not have any abnormality the day before his death. But to die of old age in one night, it seems difficult to find an explanation in medicine, the only possibility is…”

"What is it? Don't say half and half." The boss glared at me.

"You told me to say it, and I said don't scold me." I spread my hands and said, "The only possibility is that you have been cursed by Maoshan techniques or bowing your head."

"There is no good guy! It's just nonsense, and no one has ever cursed you." The boss really started cursing.

"I knew you would say that for a long time." After I said that, I ignored the boss, raised my hand to Zhen Zhen, and went out to investigate with her, and the first place we would go is the forensic department.

When I came to the forensic doctor's office, I saw Liu Nian was writing a report. It seemed that the autopsy had been completed, so I asked him how the deceased in Yuanming New Village was doing. He scratched his head and showed an expression he didn't know where to start: "I'd better take you to the morgue to have a look." When he got to the morgue, he pulled open the freezer and untied the body bag. Inside the body bag, I saw an old male face with hair as white as silver, skin as dry as tree bark, and wrinkles so deep that flies could be caught. The most terrifying thing was the slightly inwardly sunk eye socket, as if under the closed eyelids there was a dark void. However, the lips of the deceased are completely different from the eye sockets. Usually, the lips of the elderly will appear invagination due to the loss of teeth, but this is not the case in the deceased, apparently because the teeth are not lost. Other than that, no matter how the deceased looked, he was no different from an 80-year-old man.

"As you have all seen, the deceased was obviously an old man in his 80s. But according to the information I have at hand, it proves that his identity is a young man of 28." Liu Nian handed a genetic identification report and related materials to I. After reading these documents, I learned that the deceased had been confirmed as Qi Chengtian, the president of Chengtian Metal Products Co., Ltd., but his actual age was only twenty-eight years old. The 80-year-old equates, but it is a fact.

"The deceased died due to the severe failure of multiple major organs due to natural aging. This is a common cause of death for an 80-year-old man, but it is very unbelievable for a young man." Liu Nian looked at the corpse in the freezer. , with a suspicious look on his face.

I handed the information to Zhen Zhen and said to Liu Nian: "Before the accident, the deceased was still no different from ordinary people, his relatives, friends and subordinates did not find anything wrong with him, but he turned white overnight. Fat elderly. Is this medically possible?"

"Well, this..." Liu Nian frowned and pondered, but couldn't give me an answer right away.

Zhen Zhen flipped through the information and suddenly interjected: "It should be possible to have gray hair overnight, I have read it in novels, for example, "The Legend of the White Haired Witch" and "The Legend of Condor Heroes" have such plots!"

I smiled helplessly: "Yang Guo still secretly ecstasy, you read too many novels."

Zhen Zhen was told by me with a face like Jia Yu, but she was lucky to save her from the siege: "It can't be said that the plot in the novel must be fictitious, the gray hair in one night is actually well-founded, and there is indeed a record of Wu Zixu's gray hair overnight."

I have some impressions of this history, but it seems to be very different from the deceased in Zong's case, so I said: "As far as I know, Wu Zixu was so sad to escape from Zhaoguan, but his body is not the same. There is no problem, at least he can continue to escape after sneaking out of Zhaoguan."

Liu Nian nodded: "Well, that's true, historical records can be found overnight with gray hair, but there seems to be no precedent for dying of old age overnight."

"Since there is no reasonable medical explanation, there is only one possibility." I smiled slightly.

Zhen Zhen glanced at me and said disdainfully, "You don't really think that the deceased was cursed!"

I shrugged and said, "I do think so, until a more reasonable explanation is found, this is the only hypothesis that holds true."

"The boss won't listen to your bragging." Zhen Zhen rolled her eyes at me.

"Then we have to find evidence to convince him." After I said that, I said goodbye to Liu Nian, and followed Zhen Zhen to the place of the deceased's accident - Yuanming New Village.

The deceased Qi Chengtian died in his own home, and his house was located in Yuanming New Village. This is a noble residential area, and the security is very strict. Although we are the police, we must register our names and documents to enter. This shows that it is difficult for idlers to enter this community. We went to the door of the deceased's luxury villa and rang the doorbell, and it didn't take long for a woman in her forties to open the door for us. After expressing her intention to come, the woman told us that her name was Mrs. Shun, and she was a servant hired by the deceased.

After Mrs. Shun invited us into the house, she served us hot tea and told us that her boss was dead, and she would leave after packing up her things. No one might open the door for us next time we come. Since she is leaving soon, of course I have to ask her some questions, hoping to get clues: "Can you tell us about Qi Chengtian's situation?"

"Boss Qi is not a good person to get along with..." Judging from her tone, her boss usually doesn't treat her very well. However, the deceased is the most serious, she did not speak ill of the other party, but told us some of Qi Chengtian's daily situation more pertinently - I have been working for the boss for more than three years, and since he bought this villa, he invited me for daily cleaning. Originally, when he invited me, he said that in addition to cleaning, I had to cook for him, but I have been doing it for several years, and he has not eaten at home once. He usually eats out, and he is usually not at home during the day, but only comes back to sleep late at night.

The boss has a bad temper. Every time he comes back, he calls me back and forth. Sometimes he drinks too much and scolds me for no reason. However, he was rarely at home, and the salary he paid me was relatively high, so I worked for several years and never thought about quitting my job. I didn't expect him to go so suddenly and so strangely. I heard that he is going to get married soon. That girl has been here before, and she looks okay, but her temper is similar to that of the boss, and she looks down on servants like me. But no matter what, they have reached the point of talking about marriage, but the boss suddenly left, which still makes people feel pity.

Although he often eats out and drinks a lot, his health doesn't seem to be a big problem, at least I didn't notice anything wrong with him before he left. However, he doesn't seem to have a good relationship with his relatives. I have worked here for more than three years and have never seen his relatives come to look for him, but often bring a young woman named Lily back for the night. Of course Lily is not the girl I just mentioned, I thought she was the boss's girlfriend because they are really close. But it was only later that she found out that she turned out to be one, but she didn't seem to mind letting others know that she was in such a shameful business.

The night before the boss left, I also brought Lily back for the night. I heard her scream the next day and only knew that something happened to the boss. At that time, she was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she kept yelling. I rushed in and asked her what she had found. She was speechless for a while, and just pointed to the bed for me to see. When I saw it, I was frightened. There was an old man with white hair lying on the bed, and he looked dead. I was originally wondering why an old man suddenly ran onto the boss's bed, but then I looked closely at his face, but he looked more and more like the boss, so I called the police...

After listening to Mrs. Shun's account, I asked, "Does Qi Chengtian often take him home for the night?"

She nodded: "It should be said that I often bring Lily back, and I have never brought anyone else back except her."

"Then doesn't his girlfriend know about it?" I asked again.

"I don't know much about this. We can't manage so much now. However, since the boss talked about his current girlfriend, he has rarely brought Lily home." She said after a pause and said: " Having said that, Lily is indeed very beautiful, much more beautiful than the boss's girlfriend. Moreover, her personality is also very good, and she has no pretence to deal with people like me. I will pour her a cup of tea and she will say thank you. If it weren't for this kind of business, she would definitely be a good daughter-in-law."

"Since Qi Chengtianu likes Lily so much, why not just take care of her? With his family background, it shouldn't be a problem to take care of her." Zhen Zhen expressed the doubts in my heart.

"You don't know about this. Although the boss seems to be very close to Lily, he also speaks ill of her behind her back. I have heard a lot of people here. The boss doesn't seem to like Lily. It's just because she can help the boss in business. I have heard the boss talking on the phone more than once, telling the person on the phone to let Lily sleep with the other party. And Lily is also very strange, she doesn't seem to like being taken care of. Last week, I heard the boss told her that there was a director who wanted to take care of her, even if it was a million or several hundred thousand dollars, but Lily didn't agree. Do you think it's strange that women who do this kind of business don't Do you just want to make money? But Lily doesn't seem to care much about money..." She was suddenly silent for a moment, and then spoke a little embarrassedly: "To tell you the truth, Lily once lent me money. I once lent me money for my son's tuition. Worrying, I was thinking about how to ask the boss to borrow some wages. When Lily saw my troubled look, she asked me if I had any difficulties. I told her the truth, and she put all the money she had on me. I knew it was given to her by the boss. I was embarrassed to ask for the money, and said I didn't know when I could return it to her. She even told me that I didn't need to pay it back, and I refused to accept her and asked me if I looked down on her, so I had to accept it."

"Does Boss Qi usually have festivals with people?" This is a very important question, because I think it is very likely that he died of a curse such as Mao Shanshu or head-dropping.

"To be honest, the boss is usually quite rude, maybe because he is too rich! So he should have offended a lot of people unintentionally." She seemed to have suddenly remembered something, paused and said, "I didn't say that just now. In the past, his relationship with relatives was not very good. I remember when he called once, he seemed to say that a relative who cooperated with him in business had a falling out with him, and then he became a monk or a Taoist priest or something."

After listening to Mrs. Shun's words, I was suddenly very interested in this person named Lily, and I also had her contact information on hand. However, before visiting her, I would like to visit the company of the deceased first, because I am more interested in Mrs. Shun's mention of the relative who became a monk or a Taoist priest. Maybe he cursed the deceased.
