"If it was really a retaliatory killing, wouldn't the brothers He Laosan and Sansan who are still alive be in danger?" Wang Qing hesitated.
"Don't worry, someone has been sent to watch them."
Team Chen said helplessly: "The third brother He is sick and has been locked up at home all year round. The sixth brother He has inconvenient legs and feet, and he is at home most of the time. Only the fifth brother He will go to the second He's house today to help with the funeral. In order not to scare the snake away. , I sent two people to secretly protect him."
While they were talking, Jiang Li was flipping through the materials, which contained the details of the He family brothers. He looked at the people in the photos, and then at the man who entered the four gates drunk, and said uncertainly: "The one who went in just now Is it He Laowu? His name is He Zhuangsheng, right?"
Team Chen heard the words and went to look, but only had time to see a bloated figure.
He thought that his teammates were following He Zhuangsheng, and he felt that Jiang Greed might have made a mistake. But out of caution, he still said, "I'll contact them to ask."
But when the call was made, there was no response.
After a few times, Team Chen's expression sank: "Probably something went wrong, let's split up. Wang Qing, please help Zhang Peng and the others to find someone. Zhao Li and I went upstairs to find He Zhuangsheng."
After speaking, he opened the car door and quickly went to the fourth building. Jiang Greed followed closely in their footsteps and went upstairs together.
He Zhuangsheng's home is on the fourth floor. The three young people climbed the stairs very quickly, and they arrived at the door of 404 in an instant. Team Chen knocked on the anti-theft door with a tense expression. The woman who opened the door was a woman in her fifties. The door asked vigilantly: "Who are you? Which one are you looking for?"
Team Chen showed his police ID and said, "Is He Zhuangsheng at home? We have something to ask him."
Who knew that the woman said: "He didn't come back, he was organizing the funeral at the second's house, drinking with others, and probably won't come back until midnight."
Team Chen's heart skipped a beat, and he exchanged a glance with Jiang Greed.
Jiang Greed recalled the figure who walked into Sidong, and affirmed: "I should not be mistaken, it is him."
Team Chen's brows were almost knotted, and he quickly said to the woman: "Our colleagues saw that he came back, we have something urgent to find him, please call him and ask where he is now."
The woman's expression was obviously displeased, but since the other party was a policeman, she could only get out her mobile phone and dialed He Zhuangsheng's number.
The phone was connected quickly, but there was no voice from He Zhuangsheng, only the faint sound of dripping water.
Tick, tick, tick... The regularity is reminiscent of some terrible truth.
"Something went wrong." Team Chen's eyes darkened.
But he couldn't figure out why something happened so quickly in the building where He Zhuangsheng followed them one after another.
The woman looked at them in panic, as if realizing something, she yelled a few times into the phone, but there was no response. The call interface was cut off at ten seconds. It seemed that the murderer just wanted to announce the death of He Zhuangsheng.
Team Chen gritted his teeth: "I'll call people back and search the building door to door! The murderer must be hiding here!"
Jiang Greed didn't answer his words, he just walked to the stairs and looked up.
The dim sensor light was on above his head, he narrowed his eyes slightly, but he couldn't see the end of the top of his head.
This building gave him a very bad feeling. From the moment he entered, it was as if he had walked into a dark lair. It's just that he has never found the master living in the lair.
Team Chen called people back, and the scattered police force quickly gathered together. The two criminal policemen protecting He Zhuangsheng also came back, they were two tall and strong young policemen. They were brought back by teammates.
"what happened?"
There was no worry on the faces of the teammates, indicating that they were not injured. But looking at them, they knew something was wrong.
One of them rubbed his temples and said, "We kept staring at He Zhuangsheng until Lao Zhang and Wang Qing came to call us."
In their memory, they had been monitoring and protecting He Zhuangsheng outside the house until the anxious Lao Zhang and Wang Qing found them. They felt dizzy as if they were forcibly awakened from a dream.
Team Chen gritted his teeth: "At 8:30, He Zhuangsheng came back alone. I called you at least five times."
The two young criminal police officers were obviously aware of the problem, and their eyes showed panic.
But in their memory, they have been staring at He Zhuangsheng. One of them quickly took out his mobile phone, only to find that there was indeed a missed call from Team Chen on the phone.
He put down the phone and murmured: "This is too evil. We really kept staring at He Zhuangsheng, and we didn't hear the phone vibrate."
Jiang Greed pursed his lips and said, "Maybe it's just an illusion for you."
Team Chen took a deep breath and said solemnly: "It's important to find someone first, and we'll talk about other things later." After speaking, he quickly arranged the search task.
This building has seven floors in total, and there are five households on the first floor. Five criminal police officers plus Wang Qing and Jiang Li are more than enough.
The task was arranged, and everyone immediately put into action.
Jiang Greed wanted to go to the roof to have a look. So I volunteered and went to the seventh floor with Wang Qing to find someone.
A group of people went up the narrow stairs. Jiang Li paused when he reached the fourth floor, and said softly, "I smell blood."
He narrowed his eyes, sniffed carefully, and asked Suan Ni in the bag, "Have you smelled it?"
Suan Ni meowed.
He smelled it too.

Jiang Greed frowned heavily, and walked up again, thinking about what kind of monster this is.
He could feel something was wrong, but what the other party was doing so far was beyond his understanding of the Yaozu. He looked up, the dim light illuminated the top, and circles of stair handrails were spinning upwards, as if there was no end.
Wang Qing was so frightened by his appearance that he stuttered: "Brother, can't you handle it?"
Jiang Greed shook his head and said, "Let's go upstairs and have a look, it's different from the ones I've seen before."
If he guessed right, maybe they are not in the same space as each other. So from the moment he saw this building, he felt a strong sense of disobedience.
It can open up a space, which is something that many ancient monsters cannot do. What is it that is here now
What enmity can it have with the He family brothers
While thinking, the two had reached the seventh floor.
The seventh floor is very clean, the walls are white, there is no garbage and dust on the ground, and there are a few pots of green radishes along the corridor, but looking at the traces, it seems that only one family lives there.
Wang Qing raised his hand and knocked on the door of Room 701.
The person who opened the door was a kind-hearted old man. His gray hair was properly combed back, and he was wearing a long-sleeved shirt and trousers. If it weren't for the deep wrinkles on his face, and only his figure and temperament, he would have looked only fifty how old. The old man pushed his reading glasses: "Who are you looking for?"
Wang Qing showed his police officer ID and asked him if he had seen He Zhuangsheng.
"He Lao Wu?" The old man opened the anti-theft door and said, "Isn't he doing funerals at Lao Er's house? He usually doesn't come to my place."
Then he pointed to other residents of this building: "I am the only one living on this floor, there is no one else."
"You also moved from Hejiacun?" Wang Qing asked again.
"Yeah, it's been ten years since I moved here."
The two were still talking, but Jiang Li looked past the old man and looked into the room. The curtains were drawn in the room, and the light was a bit dim, but Jiang Li had good eyesight, so he could still see the tidy living room and the coffee table on the coffee table. paper man.
Those paper figurines are the Sao Qingniang who hang in every household downstairs.
Colorful, some have been cut and put aside, but some are only half-finished products.
Jiang Greed moved his eyes from the room to the old man, and asked an unrelated question: "Did you also cut those paper figurines hanging downstairs?"

The old man turned his eyes to him, then looked back at the living room, and shook his head: "I didn't cut it, it should be He Laosi, and he will too. You young people may not understand, this is called Sao Qingniang, and it is said that it can exorcise evil spirits." To avoid disasters, every household in the village used to hang them, but after moving to the community, they didn’t hang them very much, and I don’t know why it’s picked up again now. I used to cut these and sell them, but now I’m getting older, I can’t do it anymore alive."
As he spoke, he raised his hand a little stiffly and hammered his waist.
The sleeves of the shirt moved up with his movements, revealing a small section of skin above the back of his hand. Jiang Li noticed that the skin above the back of his hand was covered with large dark purple plaques.
Or in other words, corpse spots.
Jiang Li looked away calmly, and asked casually: "Do you know why the eight brothers of the He family have a bad relationship? We have asked many residents, but they seem unwilling to talk about it."
The old man straightened his back again, and still smiled gently, but there was a hint of parting in his smile: "They dare not say anything."
Wang Qing immediately asked: "What do you mean? Why didn't you dare to say it? What happened in the village before you moved to the community?"
The old man still shook his head: "They won't say it, and it's hard for me as a foreigner to say it. If you want to know, go and look up the flood twenty years ago."
After speaking, he turned back to the house and closed the door.
The moment the door closed, Jiang Li noticed that his footsteps staggered, but soon as if someone helped him, he regained his footing.
The door is also completely closed.
Wang Qing muttered: "Do you think the residents of this building are weird?"
They are very indifferent to each other. The dead He Lao Er and He Lao Si are grandparents, and their seniority in the village should be relatively high, but when funerals are arranged, it is rare for young people to worship. One generation is in charge of the overall situation. And besides the family members at the funeral, other people
