A+ A- Turn Off Light

  An Qingyu fell into silence.

  Indeed, if they went by their assumptions, then there had been two dead people nailed to that wall that night, but the blood analysis at the scene only showed Sun Xiao’s blood, so in that case, the two’s assumptions would not work.

  Moreover, if there was a second deceased person that night, then where was his body? Lin Qiye continued, he was wearing the waiter uniform of this tavern, but none of the other several waiters were dead, so who exactly was the dead …… person?

  Reasoning to this point, both began to suspect that their reasoning is wrong, but if it is not so, and can not explain the direction of the wounds on the body ……

  The case, more and more confusing.

  Just as the two were pondering, Lin Qiye’s cell phone rang, he took out his cell phone and glanced at it, and a flash of light appeared in his eyes.

  The vice team said that they found some clues about this mysterious one, I have to go back. Lin Qiye put away his cell phone and said to An Qingyu, the corpse has also shown you, you should leave.

  An Qingyu sighed helplessly, this case is more complicated than I imagined, just based on these four corpses, can parse out too little …… I think I have to go to the scene of the crime to take another look.

  This is my phone number, if you find anything, call me. I don’t think I said I’d help you solve the case, did I? I just want to take a look at the corpse. An Qingyu’s expression was a bit odd.

  Lin Qiye turned his head and gazed into An Qingyu’s eyes without saying a word.

  An Qingyu bitterly laughed, Alright, I know, seeing as you didn’t turn me in to the night watchman, I’ll let you know as soon as I find something.

  Hm.

  Peace Firm.

  Underground.

  Beside the long table, all the members of Squad 136 have arrived, Wu Xiangnan is holding a thick pile of information in his hands, his gaze is full of seriousness.

  The day before yesterday, after Prayer Mo reported to me the characteristics of the East Citys Mystery, I immediately investigated the Night’s Watch internal database to try to find out what exactly it is ……

  For the Night’s Watch, the most important step in dealing with a mystery is to confirm the identity of the mystery, and as long as you confirm exactly what the mystery is, you can roughly know its ability, strength, habits and weaknesses.

  There are mysterious events where the identity of the mystery is clear at a glance, such as the Ghost Masked Man, the highly distinctive one like the Inferno Vein Earth Dragon, but there are also mysteries where it is difficult to inquire about the specific identity from the event itself, such as the Nandu Snake Demon, as well as this mystery at the moment.

  According to the key words of Wen Jiimo, stealth, space control, cutting fingers and electronic equipment interference, I did not find any mystery that meets this condition, the only one that is stained with the edge is the Ten Cut Ghost Child, but it does not have stealth with the ability to control things from a distance and has a low intellect to do this kind of complicated case.

  That is to say, what we are facing this time is most likely a kind of mystery that has never been documented before.

  Wu Xiangnan sent down the information in his hand to the crowd, his expression congealed.

  Afterwards, I retrieved the rituals related to the finger-breaking murder and the nailing of the wall, and found some unbelievable clues.

  Lin Qiye received a copy of the information and opened it up to read it, his brows slightly furrowed.

  A long time ago, before the mists descended, there was an ancient rumor from a small religion in the west, the rumor told of a ritual for the promotion of unjust ghosts, this ritual was used to make those weak unjust ghosts shed their bones and become powerful ghosts, historically, there were indeed two ghosts that passed through this ritual and were directly promoted from the Chuanrealm to the Hairealm.

  If you want to complete this ceremony, you must sacrifice a human soul every two days, break off their ten fingers within ten seconds before killing them, and your feet must not touch the ground at the time of death, and the time of death, must be at three thirty-three in the morning.

  Lin Qiye’s eyes narrowed slightly when he saw this time, the corpse in the tavern, the coroner deduced that the time of death was between three and four in the morning, this could be correct.

  And judging from the technique, it was also completely in line with the ritual.

  After consecutively sacrificing the souls of five humans, the ritual will be initially completed, and as long as a large amount of soul power is injected into it, the weak ghosts will be transformed through the ritual and become truly powerful ghosts ……

  Soul power? Red Tassel scratched his head in bewilderment.

  You can understand it as sacrificing hundreds of ordinary people’s souls, of course, it is just a matter of the total number of souls, it doesn’t really have to be so many people, some people’s souls are extremely powerful in themselves, and can be one on top of dozens, such as those who possess the Forbidden Ruins, or even Mystery itself.

  Do you mean that it wants to complete the ritual, it has to kill hundreds of people in one breath after killing five? Chen Muye’s face sank slightly.

  That’s right, and there are strict requirements for the location where the ceremony will take place. Wu Xiangnan continued, in the information in your hands, a drawing of the location where the ceremony will take place has been given.

  Lin Qiye turned the information in his hands backward, and sure enough, there was a page with a photo attached to it, and in the photo was a pattern engraved on an ancient stone monument, with five black dots distributed in a position similar to the five stars, with lines connecting them to each other, and on the lines there were some crooked characters written on them, which seemed to be annotating something.

  Combining the crime locations of the previous four cases, I built a planar model, substituting the location of the rituals on this photo, and deduced the approximate location where the last ritual took place.

  Wu Xiangnan took out a map and drew a small circle with a red pen at a certain location on it.

  A high-class residential area? Wen Ji Mo saw the scope of this small circle and opened his mouth in surprise.

  That’s right. Wu Xiangnan nodded, according to the steps of the ceremony, it would definitely sacrifice the fifth dead person here, then kill hundreds of people to fulfill the conditions of the soul sacrifice, and then promote to the Sea realm.

  Pushing from the time, this evening …… which is tomorrow’s 3:33 am, it will have to make its move. Lin Qiye spoke in a deep voice.

  Immediately afterward, everyone turned their heads to look at Chen Muye.

  Chen Muye nodded and slowly opened his mouth: since this is the case, then our next stage of action is very clear, the scope of this red area is not very large, tonight, the seven of us are dispersed in different directions, always monitoring the situation here.

  Once someone discovers Mysterys trail, immediately send out a signal, and within twenty seconds, all of us can arrive at the scene and decapitate it.

  This is a residential area, and the time of the crime is in the early morning, it wants to kill so many people in one breath, it must be prepared ……

  Everyone get ready, let’s leave early and squat there, we might be able to catch it before the ceremony starts.

  Aye!
