Uneasy

Chapter 23 "Night Burial" Held on Time as Scheduled (2)
After receiving Wu Qiang's affirmative answer, Tang Yifei said hesitantly: "At that time, my heart was full of fear. After removing the mask on the assailant's face, I only took one look, then ran upstairs to the restaurant and called for help. ...The light was really dim, and my heart was beating too fast. Looking back now, I am really not sure whether that person is Wang Shengyang. And... I may have received psychological hints, because after the first attack, I once Seeing that Wang Shengyang's hands were wrapped with bandages, I subconsciously decided that he was the one who attacked me..."

"So, does that person look like Feng Shu?" Wu Qiang asked eagerly.Unknowingly, he didn't realize that his questioning had become somewhat tendentious and inductive.

"Uh, Feng Shu? Is it Ziyan's responsible editor in the publishing house? I only met him once with Ziyan's company, and I have forgotten his appearance. But hearing what you say now, I I think that pervert looks a bit like Feng Shu..." Tang Yifei replied hesitantly.

"Miss Tang, thank you for your cooperation." After receiving a satisfactory answer, Wu Qiang hung up the phone, immediately walked out of the building where San Pi lived, and drove towards the police station in a police car.He looked at his watch, and the time left before the "night burial" started was getting less and less.He had to hurry up, or he would miss the ceremony.

Originally, there were only four friends who were confirmed to attend Feng Shu's funeral, but now that Xiaowen and Sanpi are both dead, only Chen Ziyan and Mo Feng are left.But this is also good, at least for the police, the workload of protecting mourners has been reduced by half.

Before the funeral, Zhou Yuanyi read the outline of Chen Ziyan's novel again.After "washing", "peeling" and "cutting in half", the next ancient torture that will be staged in the story will be "crushing".

According to Chen Ziyan, "crushing torture" is actually not an ancient Chinese torture, but a criminal law drawn from ancient Roman courts.In ancient Rome, after an adulterer was caught, he would be sentenced to "crushing" by the court.The so-called "crushing torture", as the name suggests, is to use a huge external force to pinch the victim's body until the bones, head and main organs are broken, resulting in death.

In the ancient Roman court, the criminals were tied and laid flat on a stone slab covered with spikes, and then the horse-drawn carts dragged a spherical boulder to run over the criminal's body.Under the mutual crushing of boulders and spikes, the criminals had no chance of surviving.The Romans even watched the scene of the torture as a show. The prisoners were tortured in the Colosseum, while the princes and nobles sat in the stands and enjoyed it while drinking and having fun.

In the giant Colosseum in Rome, you can still see the instruments of torture that were preserved before.

Later in history, many other forms of torture appeared, but they remained the same.

For example, in ancient India, it was very popular to drive elephants to trample prisoners alive, which can be regarded as another kind of torture.

Of course, such torture is very difficult to happen in real life.In this era, not only is it difficult to find a spherical boulder or two giant stone mills, it is even impossible to find a carriage pulling a stone in the city, and it is not easy to find an elephant who dares to walk on the road—— Thanks to the hard work of the traffic police, the traffic regulations prohibiting non-motorized vehicles on the road are strictly enforced in this city.

Of course, it is even more difficult to find an elephant in the city, and there is no maneuverability at all.

Therefore, in the outline of the novel, when Chen Ziyan talked about his own conception, he adopted another original method of torture.

He asked the final judge to lead the prey to a construction site, and then scattered a lot of broken glass where the prey must pass, and poured a bottle of lubricating oil on the ground.When the prey walked by, it stepped on the lubricating oil and fell on the broken glass; while the judge stole a road roller from the construction site and ran over the prey alive...

Killing people with a steamroller can be regarded as an authentic form of torture.

Zhou Yuanyi deliberately surveyed the funeral route.

The police station is in the urban area, and the Yuanbaoshanzhuang Cemetery is in the suburbs. Of course, it is impossible for the coffin bearers to carry the coffin containing the restored skeleton from the urban area to the suburbs.If you do that, it will not only be too shocking, but also the eight strong coffin bearers, including Zhou Yuanyi and Xiao Gao, will be exhausted to death.

So this night funeral is just a symbolic ceremony.The leader of the police station had an agreement with Feng Santing, and when the time came, he asked the coffin bearer to carry the coffin out of the side door of the police station.Outside the side door is a small road full of laurel trees, called Laurel Road.The funeral procession will walk 500 meters along Yuegui Road, then carry the coffin into the black special car of the funeral parlor parked at the intersection, and go straight to Yuanbaoshanzhuang Cemetery, where the final burial ceremony will continue in the cemetery.

This Yuegui Road is only 500 meters long, and there are small one-story houses with bright windows and clean windows on both sides. When the city launched a one-stop service for administrative management a few years ago, the offices of various functional agencies in the city were stationed on this street to facilitate people's work.Functional agencies have always been working from nine to five, and it is more difficult to get them to work overtime.So even though it is crowded with people during the day, after get off work, the road is empty, like a lonely empty grave.

Let the funeral procession walk through Yuegui Road at night, not only can let Feng Santing see that the police station attaches great importance to the traditional funeral customs of the "Heisha ethnic group", block the mouths of the Bureau of Ethnic Affairs and the Bureau of Religious Affairs, but also prevent the police station from becoming a target for others in the future. laughing stock.

On both sides of Yuegui Road, there are no construction sites, no road rollers, and no elephants.Zhou Yuanyi asked his men to hide in the one-story house on the side of the road to ensure that no one would spill broken glass and lubricating oil on the ground.

After all the preparations were completed, Zhou Yuanyi changed into the national costume of the "Heisha tribe" and stood beside the wooden coffin.

The upper body of the "Heisha" national costume is a double-breasted collarless gown made of dark blue homemade cloth, without any decorations, and a plain belt around the waist with lotus flowers embroidered on it.The lower body is a pair of short and large trousers, which is very ordinary.What Zhou Yuanyi couldn't accept the most was that he had to put on leggings and put on a pair of simple straw sandals——the straw sandals were specially designed by Feng Santing to take advantage of Mo Feng's repairing the skeleton in the inspection building, and he spent the whole afternoon in the lounge , woven for Zhou Yuanyi and Xiao Gao.

After Zhou Yuanyi watched the corpse repaired by Mo Feng put it into the coffin, the six "Heisha clan" who carried the coffin knocked in the three-inch-long coffin nails with their own hands, and covered the coffin tightly. , airtight.

Before putting it into the coffin, Zhou Yuanyi carefully looked at the restored corpse.He was amazed at Mo Feng's craftsmanship. Although the suit on the corpse's body looked a little unfit, the face on the head was lifelike, exactly the same as Feng Shu's.

However, Zhou Yuanyi knew that Feng Shu was not dead, God knows which unlucky ghost the skeleton in the coffin belonged to.

A little while before midnight, Zhou Yuanyi was wearing a dark blue homespun "Heisha tribe" double-breasted gown, standing next to the red lacquered coffin, but found that Xiao Gao hadn't arrived at the scene, and couldn't help but feel a little depressed: "Xiao Gao, this brat is really slippery!" , he must be afraid that others will see the joke, so he didn't show up until the last moment before the funeral."

Zhou Yuanyi looked around, and found that several of his subordinates were hiding in the shadow of the police station wall, secretly covering their mouths and laughing.These boys are usually afraid of Zhou Yuanyi's majesty, and now they can take this opportunity to laugh at him.

Even the leaders of the police station had smiles on their faces when they saw his embarrassed appearance.Zhou Yuanyi thought to himself, Xiao Gao couldn't be taken advantage of, he had to be called out immediately to be laughed at together with him.So he took out his mobile phone and dialed Xiao Gao's number.

After the call was connected, Zhou Yuanyi asked: "What are you doing? Hurry up and change your clothes, especially the straw sandals, and come outside the inspection building! The funeral is coming soon!"

But Xiao Gao replied nonchalantly: "It's still a while, I will come out on time. Now I am entering data into the database in the computer. I have been busy with you for the past two days on Feng Shu's case, and the DNA of other cases. The test data has not had time to enter into the computer. Don’t worry, my speed is very fast, and it can be done in a few minutes at most.”

In front of Xiao Gao is the data faxed from the DNA testing room of the medical center, and he is entering them into the police computer database one by one.The top copy of the fax was Wang Shengyang's DNA data—when Wang Shengyang was suspected of disappearing during the day, Zhou Yuanyi met Chen Ziyan once, and Chen Ziyan asked Zhou Yuanyi to investigate in private.So at that time Zhou Yuanyi asked Xiao Gao to send his men to Wang Shengyang's bedroom to collect Wang Shengyang's hair tissue and conduct a DNA test.

Wang Shengyang's DNA result had just come out, so it was placed on the top layer of the fax.

When Xiaogao entered Wang Shengyang's DNA data, he found some of the data looked familiar.Xiao Gao is a guy with a very good memory. When he found something was wrong, he immediately opened the database and entered Wang Shengyang's data into the database to search.After a few seconds, the search results came out.Looking at the search results on the screen, Xiao Gao couldn't help being stunned for a moment, opened his mouth, and couldn't say a word for a long time, a feeling of being unable to breathe came to his heart.

Sure enough, there is a set of DNA data in the database, which is completely consistent with Wang Shengyang's data.

——It was the skeleton that was once suspected to be Feng Shu's corpse!
In other words, that skeleton is Wang Shengyang, not Feng Shu!
And the test results of the blood stains found on the off-road vehicle outside the gate of Yuanbao Shanzhuang's archway were also released.The conclusion is also amazing-the blood on the car is not human blood, but pig blood, which has no comparative value.

It's incredible!
When Zhou Yuanyi received the news from Xiao Gao, he was shocked.

The victim who died in a rental house in the suburbs and turned into a skeleton was Wang Shengyang?Why did Wang Shengyang know Feng Shu?Logically speaking, apart from knowing Tang Yifei, they don't have any other relationship, and the relationship between Tang Yifei and Feng Shu is also very ordinary, just a one-sided relationship.

Since Wang Shengyang is dead, the person who attacked Tang Yifei in the parking lot wearing a bronze mask during the day must not be Wang Shengyang, and the more likely reason is that the attacker was Feng Shu.

This made Zhou Yuanyi proudly think to himself, how wise it is for Xiao Gao to send someone to collect Wang Shengyang's hair for DNA testing this morning.And before he asked Wu Qiang to ask Tang Yifei again if he could confirm that the attacker was Wang Shengyang, which also proved that his reasoning was completely correct.

However, it can be seen that Feng Shu is really a scheming person.In retrospect, he used unimaginable means.

First of all, because he knew that Wang Shengyang had an injury on his hand, he came to Wang Shengyang's company the day before, attacked Tang Yifei in the underground parking lot, and put his hand to Tang Yifei's mouth, and let Tang Yifei bite, trying to blame Wang Shengyang.

Then, Feng Shu killed Wang Shengyang in the hut he rented by means of "washing up" torture, and made a "faceless corpse" disguise, which was enough to induce the police to mistake Wang Shengyang's skeleton for his own.He himself can hide in the dark and act secretly.

As for the pig blood on the off-road vehicle, it must be because Feng Shu knew that Wang Shengyang was suffering from asthma. Wang Shengyang was still alive, and all the dirty water was poured on Wang Shengyang's head.

Since everyone thought that Wang Shengyang was still alive, no one would guess that the owner of the skeleton was the owner of the building materials company.

However, with a hundred secrets and one sparseness, all disguises cannot escape scientific forensic technology. DNA technology exposed Feng Shu's lies.As long as it is confirmed that the owner of the skeleton is Wang Shengyang, all illusions created by Feng Shu can be overturned.

Ordinarily, the thoughtful Feng Shu should not have made such a mistake, but he did not expect that the police would collect Wang Shengyang's DNA data.

In normal times, the police would not have opened a case for Wang Shengyang's disappearance within 48 hours.It was also a coincidence that Wang Shengyang's obese wife, Zhao Yaxue, happened to meet Chen Ziyan, and Chen Ziyan happened to meet Zhou Yuanyi in the fan teahouse, and mentioned that the attacker had said the word "final judgment", which aroused Zhou Yuanyi's vigilance is why Zhou Yuanyi made an exception and asked Xiao Gao to send someone to collect Wang Shengyang's DNA samples.

If you want to blame, blame Feng Shu for being unlucky.

However, the DNA test results will be exposed sooner or later, but Feng Shu doesn't care at all.In this way, Feng Shu's secret plan will be completed within 48 hours after the discovery of Wang Shengyang's disappearance. He doesn't have to worry about what kind of changes will occur in the future.

What exactly is Feng Shu's plan?What is he trying to do?
Zhou Yuanyi immediately made a decision. On the premise of ensuring the safety of the "night burial", he will ask the police chief to sign to arrest Feng Shu as soon as the funeral is over.

There is no need to play the trick of "I am in the dark and the enemy is in the light". With the iron evidence of DNA data, it is time to mobilize the power of the people.

Xiao Gao changed into the "Heisha" national costume, tied up his leggings, put on straw sandals, walked out of the inspection building, and stood beside Zhou Yuanyi.He looked even more embarrassed than Zhou Yuanyi.Watching the colleagues in the dark keep giggling, Xiao Gao had no choice but to cry, not bothering to say a word.

The time has come, the "night burial" ceremony should begin, and the next good show should also be staged.

Feng Santing was dressed in Taoist robes, holding a mahogany sword in one hand and a clapper in the other, standing in front of a red lacquered coffin that was two meters long and one meter high.On the coffin, there are four logs fixed by thick ropes. These are the sticks that the eight coffin bearers will lift from both sides.

After glancing at the eight coffin bearers behind him and the two young men mourning for the funeral, Feng Santing brandished the mahogany sword, coughed lightly, and then shouted loudly: "No words when the coffin is lifted, good luck! There is a sound when the coffin is lifted, and ghosts are haunting you!" !” Then he glared at the coffin again, a gleam burst out of his eyes, his lips were tightly closed, and he stopped making any sound.

Zhou Yuanyi knew that it was time for the funeral.According to the funeral customs of the "Heisha tribe", during the entire funeral ceremony, everyone is not allowed to speak and must keep silent, otherwise it will lead to anger and resentment, and even family ruin.

The leader of the police station standing in the distance also immediately made a gesture of silence to Zhou Yuanyi and Xiao Gao, telling them not to forget this.
