Is it possible for a person to be killed in a dream? Although I dare not say it is absolutely impossible, but as for I have never heard of it. The boss obviously had never heard of such absurd things, so of course, after I reported the case to him, he scolded: "Aren't you still awake! There is such a thing in this world."

"I also think it's very incredible, but other than that, I really can't think of any other explanation." I told him that the preliminary autopsy did not reveal any signs of trauma and poisoning.

The boss glared at me and said angrily, "Even if the deceased is not poisoned or injured, it can't be said that he was killed in a dream. If you want to be lazy, you have to find a reliable explanation for me!"

I put on a serious look and said solemnly: "This is not something I just made out of it. Similar things have happened before. For example, in "Journey to the West", Wei Zhengmeng beheading an old dragon is very similar to this case. already."

"Do you think I haven't watched "Journey to the West"?" The boss glared at me viciously, "That paragraph is about Wei Zheng playing chess with Li Shimin, and beheading the old dragon after taking a nap. That's 'killing in a dream' 'It's essentially different from the 'killed in a dream' in this case. And it's just a legend, can it be written on the report?"

Seeing that I couldn't fool the boss, I had no choice but to say: "Then I'll find some cases that can be written on the report now."

"Stop pretending to be garlic with me, it's impossible not to find out that Zhao Song has a problem with Huang Zhao." This old fox is quite sophisticated.

"Zhao Song doesn't seem to want to cooperate with the investigation, but looking at Huang Zhao, he seems to be afraid of death. It shouldn't be difficult to start with him." I leisurely lit a cigarette before continuing: "However, I still want to first Find out if there is such a thing as 'killing in a dream' in this world."

"Then don't go to work!" The boss kicked me out of the office.

After I walked out of the boss's office, I asked Viagra to help me search for relevant information on the Internet, but he said, "Is this still worth looking for? Just let me 'Viagra Encyclopedia' tell you." Then he told me something about the Death in a dream—

Legend has it that in the dark ages of the Middle Ages in Western Europe, there existed a small group of mysterious necromancers who could use necromancy to manipulate corpses, and even make contracts with the wizard patron saint "Hecate" through mysterious rituals. At the price of giving up life, in exchange for immortal spiritual power.

After making a contract, the body of the necromancer will decline rapidly, and it will become skinny in a short time, and the skin is pale and bloodless, like a walking corpse. Although their bodies are very fragile, their spirits are extremely strong. It is precisely because of their strong spiritual support that they can be fearless of serious physical decay. Whether it is disease or aging, it is meaningless to them. Because even if the body is seriously injured, or even the whole body is completely decomposed, as long as the brain remains intact, they will not die. Therefore, they can almost live forever.

However, even so, they are not invincible, because they have a fatal flaw, that is, if they have nightmares and are killed in the dream, then they will die immediately...

The Western European legends that "Viagrapedia" told me don't seem to be of much help in this case, because I want scientific explanations and cases, not myths and legends. Moreover, the dead are not necessarily related to the legendary necromancer. Then I asked him to collect relevant information on the Internet, but unfortunately he didn't find anything, and I also asked some professionals to be more reliable. When it comes to professionals, the first thing that comes to my mind is Cortana, so I called her. However, when I told her about the case and my guess, she said in surprise: "Killed by her own dream? It's unlikely!"

"However, from the surface indications, this possibility is very high. I want to know if there is a medical possibility?" I also know that this speculation is absurd, but I really can't think of another explanation.

"I don't know enough to learn, I've never heard of it, people are killed by their own dreams." She paused and analyzed Gao Weixiong's situation: "According to his situation, it should be work, family and other aspects. The pressure is too great, so he often has nightmares. As the so-called 'thinking about the day, dreaming at night', so he sees scenes and characters in his dreams, which are things he often comes into contact with. As for the cause of his death , I think it's probably related to his drinking a lot before bed.

"Frightening nightmares can make a person's heart beat faster and even make it hard to breathe, and when these conditions are serious enough to be life-threatening, the brain sends a signal to wake up. It's like waking up soon because he can't breathe. However, the deceased used to drink heavily before going to bed, and it is likely that he did not wake up in time because of the influence of alcohol, so the tragedy of myocardial infarction caused death. Therefore, the real cause of his death should be It's excessive drinking. It's like a drunk person who covers his mouth and nose and doesn't wake up until he suffocates to death."

Every time Xiaona analyzes the case for me, she can speak righteously, and she can even write word for word in the report. However, I always feel that her explanations are too rational, and they often ignore some important details. For example, this time, she focused on the deceased's drinking before bedtime as the focus of the inference. Under normal circumstances, her explanation is indeed valid, but now it is under the "secondary" situation - the deceased's alcohol intake was very good, and what he drank last night The wine is not much compared to usual.

Since Xiaona's explanation was not satisfactory to me, I had to find another professional to explain it to me. This time I was looking for fleeting years. Came to the forensic office with Zhen Zhen and found that he was writing an autopsy report, and it seemed that the autopsy work had been completed, so he asked him what he found.

As he wrote the autopsy report, he said: "I tested his blood and confirmed that he had not taken drugs, not even soft drugs like this. And no obvious traces of poisoning were found after the autopsy. There was no toxin either. So it is now certain that he died of a myocardial infarction."

I told him what Cortana said and asked him if the deceased might have died from the influence of alcohol. "Impossible," he answered with absolute certainty.

"Why?" I said and threw him a cigarette. He clicked on it before answering: "The blood alcohol concentration of the deceased is indeed very high, but I found no signs of disease in his liver and kidneys, and the urine in the bladder also contains a high concentration of alcohol. This shows that his alcohol intake is higher than that of him. The average person is much better, the drink before the incident is nothing to him, and it will not be drunk and unconscious."

Zhao Song and others also said that the deceased's alcohol intake was very good, and he drove home by himself before he died, and he had to pass through a relatively prosperous road on the way. He was able to return home safely to prove that he was not very drunk. . But since he wasn't drunk, why didn't he wake up after having a myocardial infarction from nightmares

I expressed my doubts to Liu Nian, he thought for a moment and said, "Under normal circumstances, he should be able to wake up before his life is threatened. But have you noticed that he started nearly two or three months ago, Every time he had a nightmare, his wife had to shake him to wake him up, instead of waking up on his own."

I knew what he meant, so I asked, "You mean he died because he had sex with his wife before the accident?"

"What does this have to do?" Zhen Zhen asked with a blushing face.

I suddenly realized that Zhen Zhen was still a virgin, of course I didn't understand what I meant, but I was too embarrassed to say it directly, fortunately I had Liu Nian to do it for me: "The deceased drank a lot of alcohol at the time, so it is inevitable that the body's sensitivity will decline. Under such circumstances, with his wife, he will definitely make the other party very tired. Moreover, he has rarely been with his wife recently. If he is tossed like this, the wife will of course be exhausted. In this way, she lay down. I can't sleep behind the bed and I can't wake up."

Liu Nian has already said the part that I am embarrassed to say, so I have nothing to worry about, and then he said: "Because she slept very soundly, when the deceased had nightmares, she failed to wake up in time to shake her husband awake. ."

After listening to my explanation, Zhen Zhen blushed even more. She can't be blamed for this either. The deceased's misfortune was caused by having sex with his wife. It is indeed a shocking speculation, but the possibility is not low.

When I was about to leave, Liu Nianji suddenly stopped me: "Amu, tell you something, maybe it will help the investigation." Then he told me a very strange thing-

I told you before that I have a neighbor named Sisao, and she told me about this. Her mother-in-law had died before the forced cremation, so it was buried in the ground, with the remains in a pagoda and placed in her husband's family ancestral grave.

The ancestral tomb of his husband's family is very special, not closed, but semi-open, shaped like a mini temple, which is to facilitate the placement of the remains of the ancestors. Because there are no valuable funerary items in the ancestral tomb, and it is built in a cemetery managed by the government, there is no fear of being robbed.

This incident found that when the Qingming Festival was approaching five years ago, the fourth sister-in-law seldom dreamed, but at that time she had the same strange dream for several nights in a row. She dreamed that her mother-in-law's lower body was soaked in water, and her upper body was also wet, and she kept telling her that it was cold. It's not uncommon to have such a strange dream only once in a while, but having the same strange dream for several nights in a row is very strange. Because every Qingming and Chongyang, she would go to clean the ancestral graves in advance, so she opened her mother-in-law's pagoda while cleaning. However, as soon as she opened the pagoda, she found that it was very damp, and there were even droplets of water condensed on the bones.

She thought that her mother-in-law might have asked her a dream for this reason. It just so happened that the weather was fine and the sun was shining brightly, so she took out the remains and placed them in the sun to dry. She also opened the pagodas of other ancestors by the way, and when she saw the damp ones inside, she took out the bones and laid them on the ground to dry like the bones of her mother-in-law. After all the bones were dried, she put the bones back into the pagoda.

She thought that this way she would stop having weird dreams, but she still had a weird dream that night, but this time it was different from before. She dreamed that her mother-in-law was sitting on the ground and told her that she could not walk. She asked her mother-in-law what happened, and her mother-in-law pointed to her left foot and said, "This leg is not easy to use."

When she woke up, she didn't understand what was going on, so at dawn she went to the ancestral tomb to open her mother-in-law's pagoda. After opening the pagoda, she didn't find anything wrong, so she had to take out the remains and place them on the ground. After arranging the bones, she found the problem - the length of the two thigh bones were different. She thought that she must have made a mistake when she put the bones back into the pagoda yesterday, so she took out the bones in the other pagodas and arranged them to find them.

After the bones of the ancestors were placed, she no longer had strange dreams...

After listening to Liu Nian's story, I asked, "What do you mean, the deceased was killed by a ghost?"

"I didn't say that, and I didn't guarantee that what the fourth sister-in-law said must be the truth. However, I believe that she will not lie to me, and I also believe that there are ghosts in this world." He put on an irresponsible attitude. , and said again: "You should have noticed the man named Huang Zhao."

I nodded and said, "Well, I heard him tell Zhao Song that the deceased may have been killed by a ghost."

"Is there really a ghost in this world?" Zhen Zhen's complexion turned from ruddy to pale.

I shrugged and smiled: "Of course there are, and there are quite a few. Hey, why are there two shadows behind you?"

She shuddered a little, then immediately turned to look back. I took the opportunity to lightly touch her ass, and she jumped up screaming. However, she soon found out that I was the one who fucked her, so I slipped away before she even started hitting me. Sure enough, as soon as I walked out of the door, I heard her roar: "Amu, I'm going to kill you!"

After leaving the forensic department, we went to the technical team and asked Yuetong if there was any test result for the hair found in the window, but the answer we got was disappointing: "I can't be sure what kind of animal it is, only that it is a mammal. hair, perhaps a rare creature."

"Won't it be a cat or a mouse?" I can't imagine any rare animals appearing in the city.

"If it were cats and mice, wouldn't we be able to test it out?" Yue Tong gave me a white look, seeming to be unhappy that I doubted her ability to work. In fact, I have not doubted her ability to work, but this small hair is likely to be one of the important clues in this case, so it should not be taken lightly. However, since we couldn't determine what kind of creature it was, there was no other way, so we had to focus the investigation on Huang Zhao. After all, he is the only one who could possibly give us clues now.

It was already dusk when I left the technical team. Fortunately, I ran fast. Otherwise, Yuetong would catch me, and she would definitely catch me to treat her again. Just as he was about to ask Nie Hong how to get in touch with Huang Zhao, the phone rang, and it was an unfamiliar number.

Although this number has never been seen before, after connecting, I found that the other party's voice seemed familiar: "Is it Mu Shenyu?"
