Chapter 381 - Let the Corpse Speak

Panda Novel

Although he felt that this conjecture was ridiculous, it didn’t seem impossible. For some reason, this premonition began to grow stronger and stronger.

Zhou Ze’s eyes narrowed slightly,

he reached out and touched the bronze ring he had been wearing on his left ring finger.

He had obtained this ring from the three villages. He had given it to that consciousness in general mountain and used it once.

After that..,

he didn’t use it anymore.

Boss Zhou really had a lot of treasures like this,

for example, the yin-yang book couldn’t be used yet. Even if the old priest had gotten the weasel and the snake, they still couldn’t come out. Later, he had the old priest make a pot of soup for everyone to drink.

The Idiot had only sealed that consciousness for the first time and didn’t use it again

It was the same with this ring.

It was a bit like playing an online game. When you received a godly item and wanted to wear it to show off, it would remind you that you couldn’t equip it because your level wasn’t high enough.

This bronze ring could be used to form a large enchantment, but if Zhou Ze was the only one using it, it would only create an illusion where he would “Circle”himself in.

In short, it was a bit like VR glasses, but you could design a simple and crude scene to encircle yourself. You wouldn’t be able to confuse others, but only yourself.

What a useless usage.

The blue light screen slowly expanded,

but to the old Taoist beside him..,

his boss suddenly sat there without moving. He didn’t even blink. In fact, there seemed to be a blue light circulating in his boss’eyes.

The old man hesitated for a moment, then squatted down and waved his hand in front of the boss, but the boss still didn’t respond.

“Boss?”

The old man called out softly,

but he didn’t dare to touch it.

On Zhou Ze’s side, the small road beside him was constantly changing.

He had read the case file. Although there were no photos of the victim’s identity, there were still photos of the scene of the body disposal at that time.

At this moment,

the road beside Zhou ze began to slowly degenerate into an asphalt road.

The streetlights on both sides of the road also began to gradually disappear,

quaint,

dim,

it became the main color now.

The green vegetation behind Zhou Ze and the pedestrian street further away also began to slowly disappear. In its place was a textile factory.

The general pattern was like this now. Zhou Ze could not be more specific and grand.

A young woman came from the other end of the asphalt road.

What she looked like and what she was wearing were all very vague. One could only know that she was a young… woman.

Boss Zhou didn’t add anything superfluous to it. The mosaic was fine. He just had to make do with it.

Yes,

the sky was too bright.

For a moment,

the sky darkened.

When the woman walked in front of Zhou Ze,

a black shadow suddenly rushed out from behind. This black shadow was designed by Zhou Ze to be the black shadow commonly used in “Conan.”.

The black shadow rushed toward the woman,

before he could do it,

zhou ze frowned again,

no,

this might not be the place to do it.

This was the scene of a body dumping case, not a murder scene. The murderer couldn’t have killed and dismembered the body here, not even at night.

The scene began to distort,

the scene was still the same, but the girl was gone.

The Conan card shadow was still there,

he was carrying a plastic bag in his hand,

he walked back from the other side of the road,

then, he put the plastic bag on the ground and left.

Zhou Ze raised his head,

behind the window of a room on the other floor of the apartment building that didn’t look that old,

a black shadow appeared.

A passerby appeared. He found the bag and the meat inside. It was obviously fresh and not bad meat. He picked up the meat and went back happily.

The black shadow was staring down from above.

It was as if he was appreciating all of this, appreciating his… prank,

he could also see the white teeth of the Black Shadow,

he was..,

smiling.

A wave of exhaustion swept over him,

zhou ze closed his eyes. When he opened them again, everything returned to normal. The old priest squatted in front of him, his face almost touching his own.

“What are you doing!”

“Ah!”

The old priest was so scared that he sat on the ground.

“Boss, I saw you suddenly sitting there and not moving. You scared me.”

Zhou ze rubbed his forehead, feeling a little annoyed.

The biggest problem now was actually the death of the old woman who sold newspapers. was her death related to the body disposal case 16 years ago?

If it was related, why did the murderer want to kill her again?

At this moment, Zhou Ze’s cell phone rang. It was lawyer an’s call.

“Hello.”

“Hello, Boss, where are you?”

“At Little Rock Bridge. What’s Wrong?”

“I found a few places nearby that are suitable for earning GPA points. Are you free? Let’s go take a look.”

Lawyer an had been busy with Zhou Ze’s promotion to constable.

“In a few days.”

“That’s fine. Since there’s no rush, what are you doing?”

“Investigating a case.”

“Heh, this hobby is pretty good. That’s good. Then I’ll go to my usual place to eat alone. Do you want to come along?”

“Old an, do you know anything about corpses?”Zhou Ze suddenly asked.

Because he remembered that lawyer an was an expert when it came to handling frozen corpses. He basically produced and sold his own corpses for his own use. There was no middleman to earn the difference in price at all.

“HM?”Lawyer an immediately replied, “I’m not familiar with them. I’m very unfamiliar with them.”

Sometimes..,

salted fish..,

could sense each other.

Lawyer an was obviously dishonest. He acted as if he didn’t want to meddle in other people’s business. This was very similar to Zhou Ze’s mentality, so Zhou Ze could feel it.

It wasn’t that he couldn’t..,

it was that he was too lazy to do so.

Compared to the boring matter of investigating a case, lawyer an preferred to look for his own club’s young model.

“Come and help me. investigate. I’ll send you the current location.”

“Boss, this…”

“I didn’t want to care about it at first, but the old woman I just talked to yesterday was killed right after I left. This makes me very uncomfortable.”

Boss Zhou didn’t have the mindset of a “Police officer”like Old Zhang,

however, if the murderer had brushed past him yesterday, or if he had really stood on top of the old apartment building in front of them and watched them, he would have killed the old woman in the end.

This made Zhou Ze feel very unhappy.

Lawyer an still came. He came unwillingly. He parked his luxury car by the roadside, rolled down the window, and asked curiously,

“Where’s the body?”

“The body?”

“Yes, where’s the body, Boss? Have you disposed of it?”

“The crime scene isn’t here,”Zhou Ze explained.

Lawyer an lit a cigarette, smiled, and said,

“Forget it. Since we’re already here, let’s help to the end. Call Old Zhang and ask him to arrange it. I want to ‘meet’the body alone.”

“Okay.”

… ..

In the police station’s forensic medicine room, the body had already been preliminarily treated. The next step was to prepare for an autopsy.

Old Zhang braced himself and asked the female forensic doctor to leave with his assistant first. This made the people in the forensic medicine room very puzzled. Moreover, doing so was actually not in accordance with the rules.

However, Old Zhang was now the new version of “Three Fires in a new post”. No one was willing to be afraid of his eyebrows at this time. Judging from the way this new criminal police captain acted after taking office, he was obviously a senior criminal police officer, what if he just happened to be planning to make an example out of the others?

Old Zhang wiped the sweat on his forehead. He knew that this was not in accordance with the rules. After chasing the medical examiners out, he would bring outsiders in to see the corpse.

But ever since he was reborn..,

old Zhang had completely let himself go,

as long as he could find the real murderer, he would give justice to the deceased. As for whether this process was in accordance with the rules, it was no longer in old Zhang’s consideration.

Most importantly, he knew that unless there was a miracle, there was basically no hope of solving the case 16 years ago. He could only hope that his boss and the rest of the “Non-humans”in front of him would think of a way to solve it.

Lawyer an was observing the corpse and said happily, “Fortunately, I haven’t dissected it yet. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to do anything.”

“What do you plan to do?”Zhou ze asked.

“Hehe, corpses have memories. To be exact, human memories are not only stored in one’s soul. “For example, athletes can rely on long-term and high-intensity training to form inertial memories in their muscles and bodies. This can save time for thinking and reacting.”

“You can read the memories of the deceased?”Zhou ze asked.

Hearing this..,

the old priest next to him was suddenly stunned.

Lawyer an shook his head. “I’m sorry. I don’t have the ability to read them directly. Maybe someone else does.”

“Then isn’t this nonsense?”Lao Zhang said helplessly.

“I can’t read them, but I can ask the corpse to tell us.”Lawyer an took off the glove on his left hand. As he spoke, the flesh on his left hand began to slowly fade away, revealing the ghastly white bones.

The five finger bones continued to bend and straighten, giving off an extremely strange feeling.

“Spread out. Next, it’s time to witness a miracle.”

Lawyer an placed his palm on the dead man’s forehead,

red lines began to spread out from his palm. One by one, they gradually covered the entire corpse.

Then, lawyer an retracted his hand and reminded,

“With my level, I can only stimulate the corpse to do what it was doing five minutes before it died. Moreover, this spell can only be used once per corpse. I modified the method used by the exterminators in Xiangxi.”

As soon as he finished speaking,

the old woman who was lying quietly on the steel bed suddenly opened her eyes,

then..,

her corpse began to move in an extremely stiff but determined manner,

she raised her hands and bent them slightly,

her feet kept moving up and down,

her entire body was squirming on the steel bed in an extremely uncoordinated manner. It looked extremely strange.

“What is she doing?”The old priest asked after seeing this scene.

Zhou ze pondered for a moment and replied,

“She’s… riding a tricycle.”
