The psychiatrist's diagnosis made Zhao Wenbo rule out the possibility that Zhuo Datong was a sleepwalker and carried his wife's body back at night.
Moreover, he himself did not find any abnormality in Zhuo Datong. Apart from Zhuo Datong showing fear, he had no other abnormal behavior.
After careful consideration, Zhao Wenbo planned that if nothing abnormal happened again on the evening of the fourth day, he would stay here alone until the fifth night and withdraw the other security officers first.
After all, the current case is just a little weird, not a major case. There is no need to spend so much security force on it.
Besides, the criminal team is already urging them. After all, other ordinary cases will require more security forces.
The fourth night.
At about two o'clock in the morning, three peace officers who were waiting in the cemetery area noticed something unusual.
The leader, a bearded man, is the captain of this team. He is on duty from one to three in the morning.
At almost exactly two o'clock, the bearded man heard a strange noise coming from Jiang Guirong's tomb.
At first he thought he heard it wrong, until the second sound came, his beard immediately trembled, and he stretched out his hand to wake up two other colleagues who were lying not far away.
"Wake up, there is movement!"
The two colleagues immediately turned over and climbed up. The three of them were sitting next to a tomb that seemed to be large in size. The owner of this tomb should have been a businessman, relatively wealthy, and had been dead for at least four or five years. The tombstone alone It is as big as three other tombstones.
At this moment, the three police officers happened to be hiding themselves next to the tombstone. When they poked their heads out, they could observe the situation in Jiang Guirong's tomb not far away.
After the other two people woke up, they listened carefully, and sure enough, they could hear rustling sounds coming from the tomb over there, and then a soft thud.
This seems to be Jiang Guirong lying in the coffin, knocking on the coffin lid.
The bearded man said hello to the other two, made a gesture that he wanted to go around to the other side to observe, then he bent his waist and lowered his head to go around.
The other two colleagues looked around carefully and saw no suspicious figures. It seemed that the body really ran out on its own without any external force.
Bearded man quickly used the cover of other nearby tombs to reach the other side of Jiang Guirong's tomb. He did not turn on the flashlight, but took a look through the moonlight. Sure enough, there was no one outside the tomb.
Still, I could only hear the noise coming from the inside of the tomb, thumping and banging on the closed coffin lid.
Because it was said to be airtight, the sheriff sealed the coffin lid with glue after returning the body to the tomb. Moreover, the coffin lid was sealed with strong adhesive, which was very strong.
Not to mention that someone outside used external force to pry it open, even if the coffin lid is completely damaged, this adhesive can still bond the surrounding edges of the lid firmly.
There are no outsiders, the body is moving by itself!
At this moment, the bearded captain who was waiting here finally came to a conclusion.
In other words, this matter is indeed an unusual case, not an ordinary criminal case.
The noise of the tomb was still coming, and then Luo Xiu saw that the soil piled above the tomb began to shake and slid to both sides, as if an earthquake had occurred in this area, only affecting Jiang Guirong's tomb.
He quietly followed the path he came from and circled back to his two other colleagues. At this moment, the two of them were also staring unblinkingly at the tomb where the soil had fallen off due to the vibration.
One of them did not forget to turn on the small video camera used for handling the case, activate the night shooting mode, and record the entire strange situation.
Not long after, as more soil slid to both sides, some of the stacked and fixed stones began to roll down, as if there was a greater push coming from inside.
These stones fell on both sides with crackling sounds, some were broken, and some rolled down to the area of the adjacent tomb.
The bearded man felt something was wrong, so he subconsciously pulled his two colleagues back quickly to a place two graves away from each other. He squatted behind a small dirt bag and took a closer look again.
Not long after, the tomb was completely opened, revealing a dark coffin. However, the coffin seemed to have been damaged at this moment, and as expected, the coffin had a hole in the middle, and the strong edge of the coffin lid The adhesive is still working great and shows no signs of damage.
From the broken coffin hole, a dark thing was crawling out.
Because the distance here was farther than before, the three police officers did not look as carefully as before.
Not long after, I saw a figure standing on the tomb, staggering down the tomb that had been opened, and came to stand on the ground.
This man was wearing a colorful shroud, and his standing body was a little skewed. Something seemed to be falling off his face and hands.
Even though he couldn't see the other party's appearance clearly, he was still sure that it was Jiang Guirong.
Jiang Guirong stood there for a moment, then quickly took steps unsteadily and chose a direction to walk.
The three hidden police officers looked at each other. After a while, Bearded Man lowered his voice and said, "You two should follow quickly, and be careful to keep a distance and don't let the corpse find you. I'll go to the tomb to check."
The two sheriffs nodded. Although they were a little frightened and even their hands and feet were shaking, they still followed.
Neither of them dared to turn on the flashlight, but they could still see the retreating black shadow through the moonlight, so they followed cautiously.
As for the bearded man, immediately after the two police officers left, he hunched his back and quietly came to the tomb. He looked around and found nothing unusual. He turned on the flashlight at the tomb.
What came into view was a destroyed coffin. The main reason was that the coffin lid was almost completely destroyed. A big hole was opened in the middle, causing the coffin lid to break. One end fell into the coffin, and the other end was leaning outside the coffin. .
There was a smell of disinfectant inside the coffin, which was left after they put Jiang Guirong's body into the coffin for the third time. In addition, they also used deodorant.
So although you can still smell the smell of corpses now, the smell has been reduced a lot.
Instead, the entire coffin was soaked with corpse water.
The bearded man checked it carefully again. Apart from these, there were no other abnormalities here.
However, during the inspection, Lu Hu discovered a horrifying fact. Jiang Guirong's body had become more decomposed, and what he had just seen was falling from the other party's body.
Now, Wu Xiu has repeatedly proven with a flashlight that they are pieces of rotten flesh and blood along the inside of the coffin to the outside of the coffin, and evidence of either blood or minced meat is left on the ground at regular intervals.
The more he looked, the more frightened he became. In this case, this woman could climb out of the coffin. What else could she be if she wasn't a ghost?
After thinking for a while, he looked up and looked in the direction where the other two colleagues were following. The bearded man quickened his pace and took out his mobile phone to call Zhao Wenbo.
"Hey, Chief Zhao, the body has moved. She crawled out of the grave by herself. She destroyed all the sealed coffin boards. She should have gone to Zhuo Datong's house now."
Zhao Wenbo had fallen asleep before receiving the call, but he suddenly woke up.
While notifying the police officer in the hotel outside to observe what was going on outside Zhuo's yard and preparing for an attack, he told Zhuo Datong to stay within his sight.
Zhuo Datong heard that his wife was back again and was on the way. He was so frightened that his heart beat like a drum, his face turned pale, and he squatted at the door of the bedroom, unable to move even if he wanted to.
But fortunately, there was a peace officer inside the house and a security officer guarding the house outside, which prevented him from being as frightened as when he suddenly saw his wife lying next to him that day.
In addition, the monitor in the room can see when Jiang Guirong returns, which gives Zhuo Datong at least some initiative, and the fear in his heart slowly begins to stabilize.
What Zhuo Datong couldn't figure out was that Jiang Guirong had no nostalgia and no big regrets during her lifetime. Now it was proved that she was not dug up and then brought back. So why did she come back?
There was nothing evil in the house that could lure Jiang Guirong home. Last time, he wrongly blamed Shen Xing, the owner of the wood carving shop, for this incident. After the incident, Zhuo Datong thought that he would definitely apologize to him.
As for there being nothing in the house that Jiang Guirong couldn't let go of, the only thing she couldn't let go of might be her own life in the future.
Thinking of this, Zhuo Datong suddenly took a breath of cold air. Could it be that the purpose of Jiang Guirong's return was to take him away to avoid being lonely in the future?
Thinking of this, his heartbeat suddenly started to beat faster again.
He said that he would stay with his wife in a few years, but Zhuo Datong never thought it would happen so soon. No matter who you are, there is no reason not to struggle a few times when death suddenly strikes you.
Zhuo Datong is like this now. If he really wants to die now, he will definitely hesitate again and again.
No matter what, let's wait until the Sheriff handles it.
At this time, Zhao Wenbo had turned off all the lights in the room, then asked Zhuo Datong and himself to hide in another small bedroom, closed the door and locked it, and then stared at the surveillance video monitor placed in this room.
A moment later, the phone vibrated again, and Zhao Wenbo answered the call. It was the bearded man calling again.
"Sir, I was delayed for a while because I was checking the coffin and tomb, but now I can't catch up with Jiang Guirong while trotting. I guess the body is moving very fast, and my team members may also be trotting to follow her. You should pay attention, she We may arrive at Zhuo’s house soon.”
Zhao Wenbo said: "Make sure the direction you are following is correct. If you deviate from the Zhuo family, tell me immediately."
He did not call the other two police officers who were following him because they were closer to the body. If he exposed himself while answering the phone, the consequences would be disastrous.
Just after hanging up the phone, about two minutes later, the police officer waiting upstairs in the hotel opposite called again: "Hey, Chief Zhao, I saw Jiang Guirong. She is already close to the outer wall of Zhuo's courtyard..."
"Describe it in detail." Zhao Wenbo frowned slightly and ordered.
Because the sheriff outside was watching with night vision binoculars at the moment, he looked very carefully.
The Sheriff said: "She is standing now, but her body is a little skewed and seems to be unable to support herself. Part of the flesh and blood on her body has fallen off, and the exposed bones can be seen at the place where it fell off..."
Zhao Wenbo did not turn on the speakerphone at this time, otherwise he was worried that if Zhuo Datong heard these descriptions, something unexpected might happen.
"She has walked under the corner of the wall. Her walking posture is very weird, which is... indescribable. Now she has begun to climb up the wall... uh, no, it's not climbing, it's walking up!"
"Walk up?" Zhao Wenbo was stunned.
"Well, she walked up on tiptoes, and it didn't seem like she was exerting much force. She was very light. She had already climbed over the wall..." The Sheriff over there continued to describe.
But now Zhao Wenbo no longer needs his description, because a woman wearing a shroud appeared in the video surveillance.
This woman indeed walked down the wall, and stood on tiptoe, as if she didn't put much effort, so no clear footprints could be left on the wall.
After she walked down the wall and stood still, Zhao Wenbo could notice that Zhuo Datong, who was standing next to him, was shaking all over. He stared blankly at the woman on the surveillance camera without saying a word.
Jiang Guirong's body is indeed very strange. She does not stand up straight, but stands crookedly, her head is lowered, and only one third of her face is visible.
However, even this third of the face still looks horribly pitted due to the flesh falling off after decay.
"Guirong? This is..."
At this time, Zhuo Datong had covered his mouth to prevent himself from crying. Big tears rolled down from his eyes and dripped on the ground through his fingers and the back of his hands.
After standing for a moment, Jiang Guirong walked toward the back room of the house.
Zhao Wenbo immediately discovered that the way she walked was indeed very strange. First, the soles of her feet and little feet drew the power, instead of using her thighs to drive the force and move forward.
So I saw Jiang Guirong's foot suddenly stretched forward, leading her body to walk over, and then the other foot.
And in the process, her hands didn't move, and she didn't make a sound.
Soon, she walked through the yard and walked to the door of the back room. From another video surveillance, it could be seen that when Jiang Guirong walked outside the closed door of the back room, the door opened naturally without any sense of violation.
Then Jiang Guirong walked towards the master bedroom in her weird walking way.
Of course, there was nothing there, no one at all. Soon the woman walked out of the bedroom again without pausing. In the video, she could be seen walking toward the guest bedroom where Zhao Wenbo and Zhuo Datong were, guided by the strange pull of her feet. Come.
"Back to the corner, don't move." Zhao Wenbo immediately told Zhuo Datong, then pulled out the black telescopic stick and took out the gold pen in his left hand.
Jiang Guirong in the video quickly approached the door of the small bedroom. At this moment, the door was also locked from the inside.
But as she approached the door, the locked door buckle suddenly clicked and opened on its own!
When Zhao Wenbo looked up, he saw Jiang Guirong standing there with her head lowered and her flesh rotten and her body exuding a strange smell outside the open bedroom door.
