Chapter 0020 – Murder Scene
Strange fire, disappearing murderer, Chen Ge realized for the first time that he had a talent for storytelling, he combined the online news broadcast and his own speculations, and basically restored the extermination case back then.
”That’s how it happened, in order to find new material for my house of horrors, I explored the murder house at night, but I made a shocking discovery, everyone in this apartment building is abnormal, and I suspect that the murderer from five years ago is hiding among them!” Chen Ge extinguished his cigarette and looked at the cell phone screen.
”Kind of interesting, a real-life version of werewolf killing ah, here’s the prophet to speak.”
I’m a little green worm: “Anchor, just make it up and say it like it’s true. Go ahead and bullshit, count me out if one person believes it.”
”Jiujiang Fu An Apartment, I googled it and it seems to be true.”
Heshan: “I believe the anchor.”
I’m a little green worm: “Even if what the anchor says is true, how can he prove that the room he’s in is the murder house back then? As he said, the apartment building was burned by fire, but look at the room he lives in, the walls are flat, the floor is clean, and all the furniture is intact, does this look like a murder house?”
”I won’t lie to you guys in this regard, it’s really too simple to prove it.” Chen Ge moved away from the dresser, took out a fruit knife, and gently scraped away the wall skin paint in the corner, “The apartment building changed its name after the accident, and redecorated inside and out, but no matter how it’s decorated, there are some things that can’t be covered up.”
He scraped a layer of siding off, revealing the blackened bricks underneath, “That’s one of the proofs that the fire ever happened.”
All scumbags must die, “No, what I’m curious about now is why you brought a hammer and knife with you when you went to stay at the hotel? Were you trying to impersonate a fellow suspect?”
”The good siding was scratched up and the apartment owner was heartbroken for a second.”
”How much does it cost to stay in this apartment for one night? There’s not even a TV.”
Chen Ge looked at the pop-ups and held back for a long time but still couldn’t hold back, “Everyone, can your focus not be so tricky? Can you give me some respect? I’m risking my life right now to give you guys a live broadcast!”
All scum had to die to reward a coin: “Throw in a dime as a sign of respect.”
Chen Ge was only helpless when it came to his water friends, this group of old drivers were very skinny: “Okay, let’s get back to the point. In the apartment building, I have met six people, the first of which is a woman with possible mental problems, she smiled inexplicably at me along the doorway when I entered, a person I don’t understand at all and won’t discuss for the moment ……”
Chen Ge told his watery friend all of the external features of the tenants in the apartment building, with his own analysis mixed in, “In terms of motive, the landlord is the most likely person to be the murderer, but he limps and walks very slowly. In another direction from the physical conditions, the tattooed man on the first floor and the short fat man on the second floor are more likely. Of course, we can’t rule out the woman on the first floor and the skinny Wang Qi.”
Scum all have to die: “You say so a circle is equal to not say, I also suspect that the real culprit is the old man sitting in a wheelchair, after all, after the fire that year, the biggest beneficiary is him.”
”It is indeed possible ah, the old man is now paralyzed in a wheelchair, does not mean that he has been paralyzed five years ago, and besides, the murderer is not the use of physical combat to kill, but arson, the old man has every possibility of committing the crime.”
”Right, the old man’s paralysis could also be a disguise, the one least likely to be the murderer might be the murderer.”
”Actually, I’m more suspicious of the woman on the first floor, she smiled at the anchor, she should be hinting at something. Anchor, do you still remember the height of that woman’s raised lips and the size of her open lips when she smiled, let me analyze it for you from micro-expression psychology.”
”Don’t remember ……”
The enthusiasm of the water users was mobilized, and the popularity of the live broadcast room began to grow faster.
Chen Ge silently looked at the pop-up screens and didn’t find any valuable statements, “It seems like I still need to personally look for more clues before I can do that.”
He held his cell phone in front of him, “I made a field survey earlier and found that the first and second floors in this apartment building were all renovated, but certain parts of the third floor still retained their appearance from five years ago, so I’ll go into it later and search carefully, trying to find something useful.”
”Retaining the look of five years ago? Odd} people.”
”The unsolved case has not been solved, will the deceased be upset and keep wandering around?”
”Exploring a murder house at night is so raw!”
”How can you open a haunted house if you’re not fierce? Let me tell you, last time a group of us went to the anchor’s haunted house to look for a scene, the result was that the two people with the biggest guts, one of them was scared to tears, and one of them was directly scared to fainting.”
”You wait, why would the two with the biggest guts be scared like that? What about the one with small guts?”
”What you’re saying is bullshit, who the hell would dare to enter his haunted house if they have small guts?”
”Seems kind of reasonable.”
Heshan: “Huh.”
The rhythm of the live broadcast had already run off, Chen Ge didn’t care, he put the fruit knife into his pocket and practiced drawing it a few times, then came to the door with his cell phone in one hand and a tool hammer in the other.
This time he learned to be smart, and first looked outside through the doorway to make sure no one was in the corridor before gently pushing the door open.
When closing the door, Chen Ge pulled down a piece of his own hair and put it into the lock eye, so that if someone opened the door while he was away, the hair would be pushed into the depths of the lock hole.
When he was ready, Chen Ge walked through the second floor corridor to the stairway.
He moved very gently and did not activate the voice-activated lights, feeling his way forward with only the bright light that came with his cell phone’s screen.
Walking up the steps, the color of the walls on both sides slowly became darker, and an indescribable strange smell wafted in the air.
Coming to the third floor, Chen Ge turned on the flashlight that came with his cell phone, his back leaning against the wall, his attention highly focused.
The first time he had accidentally walked to the third floor, he had seen a blurry black shadow flashing through the corridor, which was vaguely the outline of a person.
”Whether he’s a person or a ghost, I have to be careful.”
The bright light from the cell phone brought the murder scene from five years ago to life, and Chen Ge looked at the scratches on the wall that were carved deep into the wall, and he couldn’t help but grip the tool hammer in his hand.
The architectural style of Ping An Apartment was very special, there was only one entrance to the building and it was close to the right side of the apartment, which caused the corridor on the left side to look extraordinarily long and claustrophobic.
Walking in it, his back was cold, and he felt very insecure even if he was pressed against the wall.
”If the point of the fire was on the third floor, this place wouldn’t have been able to be saved at all, so the third floor is most likely a place that the murderer didn’t patronize.” Chen Ge walked through the darkened hallway of the building with his cell phone in hand, the doors of the rooms on both sides were half-open, and many of them had been burned and deformed.
Avoiding the clutter piled up on the floor, Chen Ge walked into the room closest to him.
