"Giggle!"
Sun Wei, whose arm was clamped by me, struggled wildly, twisting his body like a snake, but no matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't break free from my control. He simply twisted his neck around, revealing a miserable blue face, and his mouth Spurting out a stream of cool air,
"You shouldn't touch my coffin, I want you to die and everyone else to die!"
Such strong resentment.
I glared at Sun Wei's red eyes and shouted, "You are not capable yet. Tell me quickly, did you harm Lao Chen and Wang San? Why did you harm them? Is it because they took away your burial objects?"
"Giggle..."
Sun Wei's grinning face showed a fierce look, and the yin energy exuding from his body became heavier and heavier. Suddenly he shouted loudly, his whole body twitched, and a stream of gray energy spurted out along his Tianling Cap and floated towards the window of the equipment room.
Want to leave?
I picked up the Five Emperors Money with my backhand and ran after it.
The yin energy floated ahead and kept running towards the mountains. I followed behind at full speed and ran continuously for more than ten minutes.
It's a pity that I couldn't catch up with the evil ghost in the end, and it disappeared into the forest.
Unable to chase away the evil spirit, I could only shake my head and look at the dark woods in front of me. I felt irritated. I originally planned to go back and check on Sun Wei, but as soon as I turned around, I noticed something on the slope in front of me. A pit.
The pit was about two meters long. Due to the heavy rains in the previous two days, it was filled with rainwater. The water was turbid and exuded a strong earthy smell.
I walked towards the pit with a suspicious look on my face, squatted in front and took a look, my brows furrowed again.
The pit was dug very deep, and the accumulated water exuded a strong smell of death, which was almost the same as the breath I sensed on the coffin.
The soil around the mud pit turned black, and there was a faint cold white air coming out, which showed that there was a lot of resentment.
It seems that the coffin was originally buried here, but someone dug it out and pushed the coffin into the river bed first, and then I accidentally hit it and fished it ashore, which led to the following series of things.
The doubts in my heart deepened, and I always felt that things were not as simple as they appeared.
Maybe there are many details hidden behind this "grave robbing incident" that I don't know.
Fortunately, I just rescued Sun Wei. As long as I wake him up and ask him, I should be able to figure out the situation.
I ran non-stop towards the construction site, and it took me more than ten minutes before I returned to the warehouse panting again.
It took me half an hour to go back and forth, and I was very tired. I was about to go into the warehouse to ask Sun Wei to find out the situation, but I saw many workers outside the warehouse, all of them with frightened expressions. It was so crowded.
I was very curious and saw Chen Tao standing among the workers, so I quickly went up to ask about the situation.
Before I could speak, Chen Tao said something that shocked me:
"Zhou Xuan, why are you here? Sun Wei is already dead!"
"what's going on!"
I trembled all over and almost jumped up. I quickly pushed Chen Tao away and rushed into the warehouse. The smell of blood made me vomit.
I looked closely and saw Sun Wei lying on the ground dead.
His death appearance was horrific, with his eyes wide open and his mouth open to the limit, almost tearing the corners of his mouth.
The facial features are also twisted together due to fear, which looks particularly scary.
The fatal wound came from the back of his head. The fire ax was embedded in his skull for some reason. Most of the ax blade was embedded in it, almost splitting his head in two!
Seeing this horrific death made my legs weak, and I couldn't help but have huge questions in my mind.
Half an hour ago, this guy was possessed by a grudge and was trying to kill me.
I was busy cleaning up the evil spirit and ran into the mountains for half an hour. When I came back, only his body was left.
What happened in this half hour?
I resisted my nausea and stood up, walking towards Chen Tao with an ugly face, "How did Sun Wei die?"
Chen Tao, like other workers, was too scared to go near the warehouse. He shook his head vigorously and said, "No... I don't know. After you left, I was a little scared to stay alone in the work shed, so I planned to come out to look for you. But as soon as I got near the warehouse, When I saw the door open, Sun Wei had already poked his head there."
Chen Tao looked horrified, and the other workers were so frightened that their faces turned pale and they were at a loss. No one could tell who killed Sun Wei.
"Oh, don't stay still, call the police as soon as possible."
I was helpless, shook my head, pushed through the crowd and walked back.
Chen Tao followed me nonchalantly and kept arguing, asking me where I was going.
I shook my head and said, "The person is dead and I can't find any valuable clues. I want to go somewhere else to take a look, so don't follow me."
Ignoring Chen Tao's horrified expression, I strode out of the warehouse and came to Wang San's work shed.
After opening the bed board, I saw the expected scene.
The clay pot I hid here during the day has disappeared. It seems that the person who killed Sun Wei had found this burial object before taking action.
"Could it be Lao Song who did it?"
I closed my eyes, feeling confused. I still couldn't believe that Lao Song, the always kind contractor, would kill someone for two antique jars.
But now that things have happened, I can no longer believe it even if I want to.
There were four people who had actually touched the coffin, Lao Chen, Wang San, Sun Wei and Lao Song.
Now that the first three people are dead, there is still Lao Song, and there is a high probability that he is the murderer!
Before dawn, a large number of police officers came to the construction site again. In just two days since the first deceased was found, three people had already died at the construction site.
A case of such a heinous nature attracted great attention from the police. Every worker who stayed on the construction site was summoned individually and called to the bureau for questioning. The entire construction site was also sealed off. It seemed that there was no way to start work again.
In order to avoid getting into trouble, I did not reveal my findings when I was summoned. Like other workers, I was left in the dark.
By the time I finished answering the police's questions, it was already the next morning.
When I walked out of the inquiry room, I saw a familiar figure. It was the middle-aged police officer who personally led the team and accompanied me to the river to recover the body two days ago. I quickly greeted him and said,
"Officer Liu, what a coincidence."
"What a coincidence. Things at your construction site have become too big. The superiors have asked us to solve the case within a time limit. All colleagues in the bureau are busy working on this matter."
Officer Liu still had an impression of me, so he handed me a cigarette with a grimace, "I have been a police officer for so many years, and I have never encountered such a bizarre serial murder case. What on earth does this murderer want to do?"
I didn't say anything. Although I already had a guess in my mind, there was no evidence after all. In order to avoid arousing his suspicion, I didn't say anything about what I was also investigating. I just made insinuating remarks,
"Maybe it's because of the coffin. I heard that there were many burial objects in the coffin, but now they're gone. Even the coffin was secretly dismantled into parts..."
"Shit, that broken coffin doesn't have any burial objects at all!"
Unexpectedly, Officer Liu inadvertently gave me a subversive answer.
He said that when the coffin was first salvaged, he also suspected that there might be valuable funerary objects inside, so he opened the coffin to inspect it personally. Unfortunately, he saw nothing inside except a few soaked wooden boards.
"Just because there was nothing inside, I left the coffin at the construction site and asked them to handle it themselves. Otherwise, I would have contacted the museum to have it taken away."
His words shocked me again.
Could it be that those two ceramic antiques were not fished out from the coffin?
