People in DC, every day administrative leave

Chapter 219 219. Strange murder case

The police car came to a community with a good environment. It was located not far from Wayne Technology Park. It was a place that only people with some savings could afford to live.

Single-family villa, swimming pool, small yard
However, the sharp-eyed Officer Zhang discovered that the front door of one of the villas seemed to be ajar. In this case, he had to check to see if a daring thief had escaped.

He stopped the car and drew his pistol. When he came to the door, he shouted into the house: "Police! Is anyone there?"

The two waited at the door for a while, and after confirming that no one responded, Officer Zhang opened the door and walked in with his gun.

The TV was on in the living room, and there were some unpacked snacks on the coffee table in front of the sofa.

There was nothing unusual in the kitchen, but in the bathroom he saw a tall man soaking in the bathtub
In less than 2 minutes, police support arrived.

Compared to the guy in the bathroom on the first floor with his head soaked in water, the bedroom on the second floor was even more terrifying. Three people, one large, two small, were suffocated to death on the bed.

Captain Mark came out of the house and walked next to Zhang San. He told the ace police officer some of the things he knew so far.

The dead man's name was Terry. He, his wife, and two children had recently moved from out of town. There were no signs of a fight in the room, nor in the bathroom where the man drowned.

"So it's most likely that he was knocked unconscious and killed?"

"Almost, but what I don't understand is why the murderer didn't close the door and let you see it."

The whole thing looks like it was done by a professional killer, but it is impossible for a professional killer to leave the door open. Doing so will not do him any good except that the neighbors will find out in advance.

"Captain, we found this thing in the man's hand."

A colleague trotted over and handed Mark the small bag in his hand, which contained a wooden cross.

"Maybe it was a ghost that killed them?"

Zhang San came up with a bold idea. Three people were suffocated upstairs, and one of them had his head soaked in the bathtub with a cross in his hand. This looked like a plot from some horror movies.

"Then take a look at this. Does it look like a gift from the church?" Mark handed him the bag in his hand.

After looking through it carefully, Officer Zhang was speechless and found that there was a line of very small words on the wooden cross, which indicated that this item was an imported product shipped across the sea.

The Mexican priest in the church is quite good at business. If you sponsor for ten yuan, you can get small gifts carefully prepared by the church.

Anyway, Zhang San only went there once, and after looking at it, he never went there again.

For sponsorships or something, he would rather buy premium superhero T-shirts than donate them to these people.

I guess this cross was sponsored by the deceased, but I don’t know what he wanted to do with it when he died.

This case was eventually classified by the police as a professional killer hunting out-of-towners, which made the investigation somewhat troublesome.

After the discoverer, Officer Zhang, and his partner handed in the report, they had nothing to do, and the rest was left to the colleagues who were specifically responsible for this area.

Playing with his brains is not Zhang San's strong point. He only likes to use a gun to kill those black guys who want to have a gunfight with him.

But in the afternoon, while he and his partner were patrolling, a phone call came in. On the other end, Johnny, who had switched jobs from a closed chip shop to working as a security guard in Wayne Technology Park, wanted to talk to him about something.

At a street stall, two people sitting at a table saw Johnny, who could run, jump and ride a bicycle.

His lameness was cured by a keyboard man one night a few days ago, and the reason was just that he forwarded a message on the social platform that the keyboard man was holding a magic witness event again.The keyboard man who knocked on the window at one o'clock in the middle of the night told Johnny that he had won a big prize, and the prize was a free magical treatment.

"Why don't you go buy a car?"

Zhang San didn't drive before because he didn't know how to drive. He had no time or need to learn to drive before he came to this world. He learned his driving skills from games and videos.

The result was that Chris and the vigilante were so shocked by his driving skills that they no longer wanted to ride in the car he drove. They didn't learn it until he scared the coach half to death later.

But Johnny's situation is different from him. He is an American and used to live in Gotham. Now that his legs are healed, he rides a bicycle?

"Because bicycles are cheap, I live close to the company anyway, so I won't leave this town."

After saying a lot, the most fundamental reason is that Johnny's pockets are empty and his salary has not been paid this month.

Even this bicycle was bought second-hand from a colleague and cost only a few dozen yuan.

"Boss, have you discovered a few corpses in high-end communities before?"

The mysterious Johnny started talking about business. He didn't call just to chat about ordinary things.

upscale community
Officer Zhang thinks there is a slight problem with his description. The community where the murder occurred is not considered high-end at all. You can buy a house for 10,000+ and live in it.

Why is this guy suddenly talking about this?
"The four corpses were probably done by professional killers." Zhang San told some details of the case, including the fact that the man who drowned in the bathtub was holding a cross.

"Boss, do you believe me?" Johnny suddenly asked him after hearing what he said.

"I believe you are not a fool who gives money to others? Well, I believe you."

What else can be said, between belief and disbelief, Officer Zhang chose to believe in this moonlight tribe.

After scanning the surroundings, Johnny lowered his voice and told some of the things he found: "An evil spirit once entered that house!"

"Huh?" Barbara was confused. She felt that this person was joking.

"Tell me how you know."

Officer Zhang, who looked a little more serious, wanted to know if he was the evil spirit he saw through the magical imported magic crystal. If it was true, he would buy one.

"I have been studying the occult, and recently I have learned a magic that allows me to see the traces left by evil spirits."

After a pause, the magic security guard continued happily: "I went to see the house that was sealed. The doorknob on the front door was a little dark. It was probably opened by someone possessed by an evil spirit. Door!"

At this moment, Barbara looked confused, and Zhang San took a sip of the drink without saying anything, just wondering whether this thing was true.

Whether there are ghosts in the DC world, the answer is yes, and whether there are demons, the answer is yes.

But Johnny, who buys imported goods as occult props, can learn magic through self-study, and can he also see the traces left by evil spirits?

This is like Chris becoming the Flash by running two steps in the yard after eating every day. It's a bit of nonsense.

So there is a high probability that he bought the real thing?Learned magic by picking up leaks?
