Mystery

"Kach...cha...cha..." The sound of the old-fashioned clock hanging on the wall stopped abruptly.

The room seemed to have suddenly entered a dead silence, Li Nan pulled away from the horror novel he was reading, and glanced at the clock on the wall a little unaccustomed.

This is his newly rented house, and he has only lived in it for a month. The location is excellent, but it is a bit old.

Back then, the large-scale demolition here stopped abruptly at the edge of this building. The old building has been preserved like this. It seems to have a layer of isolation barrier in the bustling city center. Somewhat out of place.

"Huh, huh, huh..." Without the sound of the alarm clock, Li Nan only felt that her hearing was amplified all of a sudden.

He touched his arm a little unaccustomed, put on a pair of rubber slippers bought at the supermarket for a few yuan, and his breathing and heartbeat were thunderous.

The time showed [-]:[-] in the morning.

Li Nan looked at it, turned his head suddenly, and looked at his mobile phone on the bed. In the novel he just read, the protagonist suddenly woke up in the middle of the night and looked at the time. It was [-]:[-] in the morning, and then he found that the world was silent. , Then something terrible happened...

Li Nan's heart tightened, he grabbed his mobile phone suddenly, and secretly cursed the two words "Quintessence of China" to embolden himself.

But even so, after such a toss, he still couldn't help but feel hairy.

"Huhu...huhu...huhu..."

Li Nan's face turned pale, he didn't know if it was his illusion, he felt like there were two breathing sounds in the room.

But he lived alone, and when he listened, the hairs on his body exploded instantly.

Li Nan looked around stiffly. The rental room was very simple, with only a bed, a desk, and a simple cloth wardrobe.

The closet was very flimsy, and any clothes hanging on it would be wobbly, and there was no way to hide people in it.

Li Nan thought nervously, and looked towards the bed that she was lying on earlier.

The bed is an old-fashioned wrought iron bed, and the bed is empty.The bed was not very big, and the old-fashioned peony bed sheets his mother prepared for him could hang down on both sides, blocking the view.

If there is a place in this family where people can hide, then this is the only place.

At this moment, his cell phone rang suddenly. Li Nan was startled by the ancient ringtone, and he almost didn't drop the phone with a shake of his hand.

He collected himself, it was a strange call.

Li Nan swallowed his saliva, took a deep breath, and connected the phone, "Hello, is this Li Nan? This is the Yaoguang City Public Security Bureau. You are related to a criminal case and need you to come to the Public Security Bureau. We are now To confirm your personal information, there is still some security deposit..."

Li Nan's tense nerves relaxed, and he hung up the phone directly.

He was amused by his own paranoia before, take a look, the scammers are still making fraudulent calls at such a late hour, but he was surprised when he read the novel.

Li Nan thought, walked towards the bathroom, and turned on the faucet.

"Ah!" He couldn't help shouting, and saw that the water coming out of the faucet was red, and at first glance, it looked like blood.

After a while, the water from the faucet returned to clarity.

Li Nan looked at it, and laughed out loud, "I really stayed up all night and fainted. The water pipes in this old dilapidated house are rusty, but it doesn't often leak rusty water. They couldn't be used at first, and I was shocked."

As he spoke, he walked out with his eyes squinted, walked straight to the desk, and started charging his phone.

"Ding", the phone made a slight sound.

Li Nan yawned and was about to lie down on the bed, but looked in horror at the mirror facing him on the table.

In the mirror, he stood there with his mouth wide open looking terrified, and behind him, there was a man in a peaked cap.

"Huhu...huhu...huhu..."

……

Chen Mo hung up the phone and looked at the three of them solemnly, "There is a case, let's call the police immediately, the forensic doctor and forensic evidence have already gone there. Let's talk while walking, it's a serial murder case, this is already No. 2 victims."

"The clocks around the two victims stopped at [-]:[-] in the morning, and their deaths were tragic."

"Moreover, when the victims of the two cases died, they were reading an online serial novel called "Thirteen in the Morning". The general content of the novel is that at three in the morning every night, the end of the world When the world is opened, demons and ghosts will come alive.”

"The novel is fiction, of course, but now someone is being killed, at three-thirteen in the morning."

A few people said, and trotted downstairs.

Qi Huan drove Shen Ke and Chen Mo to the scene, while Zhao Xiaomeng drove Shen Ke's car back to the Municipal Bureau for support.

The murder scene was not far from here, and almost as soon as they reached the door, everyone could smell a strong smell of blood.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Xiao Wang of the forensic evidence turned his head to look at Shen Ke, "Oh, your team has been revived with full blood? Is there another one? Now everyone in the bureau is talking about whether Li Yuan is the real son of the horse bureau. No, he just went to have a baby, and the vacation is so long, it is enviable!"

Shen Ke put on gloves and shoe covers. The house is very small, just a one-bedroom, and you can see the whole picture clearly once you enter.

On that simple desk, there was a bloody head. The head was facing the mirror, with the corners of its mouth raised, revealing a weird smile, as if it was happily looking at the mirror.

There was blood everywhere, and the whole room was sticky.

Over there, Yan Xiulin nodded at Shen Ke, "The person should have been beheaded after being strangled, and the time of death was between three and four in the morning."

"There were no other wounds on the deceased's body. The crevices of the fingers had been cleaned, and we found no skin flakes... Initially, the modus operandi of this crime is almost exactly the same as the previous beheading case."

Shen Ke nodded. It was because there were too many identical cases that the Horse Bureau judged that this was a serial murder case.

She thought about it, looked around, and found that the room was clean, and there were no traces of fighting, but...

Shen Ke looked towards the bed next to the corpse. There was no shoe cabinet in this house, and there was a row of very neat shoes under the bed, but among the neat rows, a few pairs ran out as if they had been touched.

It seemed that someone was under the bed and crawled out from inside.

Shen Ke thought about it, pointed to the bed, and said to Xiao Wang, "Sister Wang, check the bottom of this bed, I suspect that the murderer may have hidden in it, and see if there is any hair on the bottom of the bed, or Leave no other traces."

When Sister Wang heard it, she made an OK gesture to her.

After Shen Ke finished speaking, she walked towards the gate. If there is no sign of picking the lock at the gate, then her deduction will be confirmed.

As she thought about it, she looked up, only to see a dusty man in a black jacket standing at the door. His head was wrapped in gauze, but his eyes were shining. When he saw Shen Ke, he saluted her. .

"Special case team Li Yuan, return to the team safely!"

The text ends here.

Almost all the holes dug were filled. As for emotional matters, our Xiao Ke is a very pure person, and we are all focused on solving the case.And she has just experienced what happened to her uncle, now there is no other way and it is not the time to talk about feelings, so the relationship development is left blank for everyone to imagine.

Everyone in the special case team will always maintain their original intentions, continue to pursue the truth, and prevent any murderer from escaping.

Thank you for your continued support and company.
