Chapter 212 Weird Symbols
Jiang Chao put his phone in front of me and said:
"Look, today's headlines, a female college student who had just graduated was killed by her boyfriend in a rental house. She was cut more than a dozen times, and her face was cut off. Her whole body was covered with white lime powder for anti-corrosion. It was not until the body rotted and smelled a week later that it was discovered. On the ninth day of the dying day, you said that such men could find a girlfriend, I was speechless..."
I looked at the news content on Jiang Chao's mobile phone. When Jiang Chao's fingers kept sliding down, I suddenly saw the dead body being mosaiced.
"Jiang Chao, hurry up and take a stroke!" I said.
Jiang Chao passed the photo of the deceased, but the moment I saw the photo of the deceased, the pale face that appeared outside the window suddenly popped out of my mind!
Why do I suddenly think of the pale face when I see the photo of the deceased who has been mosaiced?
Could it be that this is just a coincidence?
"The ninth day of the lunar month, something is wrong. The rental house where this girl had an accident seemed to be in our Gugu County!" Jiang Chao said to me as he looked at his phone.
"What? Is it such a coincidence?" I said.
"You can see it yourself. This photo is the rental house. Are you familiar with the road behind?" Jiang Chao said as he took his phone in front of me.
I looked at the photo of the murder scene on Jiang Chao's mobile phone. It turned out to be our Gugu County.
Originally, our Gugu County was not big. In addition, Jiang Chao and I usually had to go around because of the store business, so we were very familiar with the entire Gugu County. We could almost see where the place in the photo was.
"Isn't that the back of the barbecue restaurant we often go to?" I said.
Jiang Chao nodded:
"Yes, I really didn't expect this perverted murderer to appear in our Gugu County."
The deceased was in Gugu County, and the murder occurred yesterday afternoon, and the pale face only appeared near the store last night. Is it all a coincidence?
Or, that pale face is the girl who was killed by her boyfriend during her lifetime?
Why did she find our Qinji Coffin Store again?
Just as I was thinking, Jiang Chao suddenly realized something, and quickly put down his phone and said to me:
"By the way, Chujiu, do you still remember the middle-aged man who came to our store to buy urns? He isn't he the father of this girl, right?"
I said after hearing this:
"It shouldn't be such a coincidence..."
Jiang Chaodao:
"This is different. It's a pity that this girl is. Her photos looked very beautiful and sunny. By the way, the ninth day of the lunar month, otherwise we'll go to the murder scene now? The store is not busy anyway."
"The scene must be alert. If you want to go there yourself, I have to stay and see the store." I said.
"Okay, since you don't want to go, I won't go anymore. I'll be with you in the store." Jiang Chao said, holding his cell phone and continuing to play.
In this way, Jiang Chao and I stayed in the store for an afternoon, and there was no customer during this period. It was not until the sun was about to set that the store welcomed the second customer today.
The one who walked in was an old man in a black robe, carrying a box on his back and holding a fortune telling banner in his hand. He should be a fortune teller. As soon as the fortune teller walked into the store, he looked at me and Jiang Chao and asked:
"Two little masters, may I ask if Mr. Qin is here?"
After hearing this, I hurried forward and said:
"Old sir, Mr. Qin has gone out for a long trip. It may take some time before he can come back. You can tell me if you have anything."
"Are you Mr. Qin's apprentice?" the fortune teller looked at me and asked.
I nodded:
"That's right."
When the fortune teller heard me say this, he knelt down at me with a thud and said to me with red eyes:
"My little master, your master and I have been good friends for many years. Please, please, please save my granddaughter, and you must save my granddaughter..."
I was a little unexpected when the fortune teller's actions, so I quickly helped him up from the ground with Jiang Chao:
"Old sir, tell me slowly if you have anything to do. Since you and my master, Mr. Qin, are good friends, as long as you can help within our ability, you will definitely not refuse."
The fortune teller then took out a few photos from his backpack and handed them to me:
"My granddaughter is so wronged. She died so unknown. Moreover, her soul cannot be reincarnated after death. Last night I dreamed of her. She asked me to dream of her and said that she is very scared now and she can't go anywhere..."
I first stabilized the fortune teller's mood, and then opened the photos he handed me to see.
The first photo is a photo of the fortune teller’s granddaughter during his lifetime. It can be seen that this girl is very beautiful and looks simple.
Just as I was about to look at the next photo, Jiang Chao suddenly pointed at the photo and shouted to me:
"Qujiu, it's her!"
"What is her?" I asked.
"It's the news just now. The deceased is the girl in your hand!" Jiang Chao said as he immediately took out his cell phone and found the news just now. Below the news I saw the photo of the deceased before his death. It was indeed the same as the photo in my hand!
There are so many coincidences in the day that I feel that this matter is not as simple as I imagined.
So I immediately opened the second photo, which was a photo of the autopsy report. The autopsy report clearly stated all the wounds on the girl's body, as well as the specific reasons and time of disappointment.
The third photo is a blurry portrait, which should be a picture taken from the surveillance camera. You can only see clearly the general outline of a man, and you can't see clearly his appearance.
The last photo is a colorful picture with some strange and ancient sacrificial ritual on it, wrapping people with white lime powder wood, and piercing them through it with a wooden stick. Under the stick is a particularly large and weird oval symbol. More than a dozen people around him kneel near the symbol. The whole picture makes people feel extremely uncomfortable after seeing it.
After seeing this picture, I immediately thought of the granddaughter who died in front of me. Her way of death was similar to this strange and ancient ritual.
"Old sir, do you think the death of your granddaughter is related to this ancient sacrificial ceremony?" I asked at the fortune teller.
The fortune teller nodded:
"That's right, my little master, I'm going to the scene, but the police guarding there didn't let me take photos. I clearly saw that there was such a huge oval symbol on the ground of the rental house where my granddaughter died, so I asked someone to check and found these clues."
I nodded after hearing this:
"Old sir, do you mean you want us to help your granddaughter find out the truth?"
