Chapter 1197 Immortal Life
"The deceased's name is Hai Dagui. He is engaged in the building materials business in this city and has a small amount of assets. He has a wife and a daughter, but they have been divorced and the daughter was awarded to the wife."
“The body was discovered around 10:30 in the morning, and the person who found it was an hourly worker employed by the deceased’s family.”
"The security guard of the community asked. The deceased came back at 11 o'clock last night and did not go out again after that. I have seen the surveillance video and no one has been there. The doors and windows are closed..."
But when Lin Feng arrived at the scene with his people, those who arrived first had already collected a lot of information.
Lin Feng immediately led people to carefully circle around the deceased's home and found no trace.
The deceased was hanged, but the forensic doctor has not arrived and the body has not been removed yet - the police who came first had limited tools and were afraid of destroying useful information, so they hung them one by one.
"There are no useful clues. It seems that we can only wait for the forensic people to examine it carefully." Lin Feng thought to himself.
Sure enough, not long after, Lin Feng heard Xiaobao's voice coming from outside the door - but when he looked back, the first thing he saw was not Xiaobao, but a cold-looking woman, about twenty-seven. About eight years old, short hair.
The first impression this woman gave Lin Feng was that she was cold, then she was capable, and then she had a good figure and average appearance, but with her special temperament, it got extra points - despite this, she still had a feeling of keeping people away. .
Forensic Doctor Nan, the new forensic doctor who came to report, succeeded the previous Chief Qin. When Forensic Doctor Nan arrived, Director Liu led her to greet the main heads of various departments. I heard that it was Chief Qin. She graduated from school, but missed it by several grades, and was Lao Qin's junior sister.
It is natural to meet and greet each other. Lin Feng said hello naturally. Nan Forensic Doctor nodded, and after asking about the situation, he started to work directly. On the contrary, Xiaobao, who was carrying things like a bitter gourd, followed suit. When I got busy, maybe I was scolded by my new boss when I came here?
The whole process was carried out in silence - when most of Lin Feng's attention was focused on the black stockings that Medical Examiner Nan was wearing today, Medical Examiner Nan had temporarily finished his work.
"Initially it's almost suicide."
"Oh...suicide, eh. Suicide?" Lin Feng, who finally woke up from the reverie of those beautiful legs, was startled, "How to judge?"
"It's just a preliminary determination, not the final result." Forensic Doctor Nan began to take off the rubber gloves on his hands. "There were no signs of struggle at the death scene. Except for the constriction marks on the neck, no obvious fatal injuries were found on the deceased, but..."< br>
Just when the southern forensic doctor was about to explain his preliminary judgment, a police officer suddenly ran over and said, "Sir Lin, we found it. The deceased really committed suicide!"
Lin Feng was startled, while Forensic Nan frowned, obviously not liking being interrupted like this.
"What did you find?" Lin Feng was curious.
I saw the police officer hurriedly taking out a laptop - this computer was placed on the coffee table.
When everyone entered, the screen of the laptop was facing the deceased. However, it was out of power and shut down automatically. The technician turned on the power and spent some time cracking the password before turning on the computer.
"I'm guilty, I..."
The man in the video told the camera a lot of things, starting from how he started doing bad things to what he has done over the years.
Finally, the man started his move - he walked to the stool, hung up the rope, and then kicked the supporting stool away with his feet.
The man hung himself, then began to struggle instinctively. Soon after, he stopped and died.
And this man turned out to be the deceased, Hai Dagui...
"I'm going back first."
The moment he finished watching the video, the new South Medical Examiner said something directly, and then took Xiaobao away, leaving Lin Feng and the others waiting in a daze...
"Sir Lin, this...what should we do next?"
Lin Feng thought for a while and said: "Continue the investigation, and then write a presumption report. If there is nothing else, just close the case and issue a death certificate, and let the family members come to collect the body."
"Oh, okay."
……
……
"Yes, I didn't notice it before." The maid looked at the surrounding environment, "Maybe it was during the time when the store was away."
This was probably the case, Luo Qiu nodded.
Although the mind can spread out, observing everything in the whole place all the time, and recording everything no matter how big or small, no one is interested in staring at all the developments of everything... At best, there will be some focus on it. Will pay attention to observation.
Apart from a few guests, Luo Qiu didn't have much to observe.
"Master, do you want to go in and take a look?" the maid asked softly.
Luo Qiu thought about it for a while, and there was nothing special to do, so he nodded. When he walked into the alley, he seemed to have penetrated some kind of invisible, thin membrane. It seemed to be some kind of warning and... means of selection.
……
There is a five-level staircase in front of the store - it opens into a basement-like place.
A very small doorway, only about sixty centimeters wide.
The light tube is on, but it is the kind of light tube that is about to end its service life. The white light is dim, like gray. After opening the door, you still need to walk down a few more stairs. The overall space is not large. A dozen square meters, at most a bedroom-sized space.
There weren't many things on display, just a very large and exaggerated desk, an old sofa, and then cabinets all over the room, taking up three walls - and a small room that should be the bathroom.
There are many books placed on the cabinets that occupy almost all of the walls on three sides - almost all of them are books, with only a few decorations.
One of the ornaments was a crystal skull - this aroused Luo Qiu's curiosity, because Luo Qiu remembered that he had such a crystal skull in his hand, but that was a long time ago.
Now this skull is placed in the warehouse. It is one of the few things that Luo Qiu has stored in the warehouse after he became the boss.
There was a person lying on the sofa, covering his face with a book. His appearance could not be clearly seen for the time being, but the birdcage placed on the extra-large desk attracted attention.
Because there is a crow locked up here.
At this time, the crow suddenly screamed, flapping its wings, making a noisy sound, and - it spoke: "Idiot 24, get up, idiot 24, get up..."
Like a parrot, the caged crow cries repeatedly and shrilly.
I saw the person lying on the sofa grabbing the thick leather book covering his face, throwing the book out with a flick of his hand, and hit the cage directly - this cage was also magical, and it did not fall down. It seems to be fixed on the table. The crow immediately stopped shouting, folded its wings, and stared only with its eyes.
"I'm sorry...this guy has lacked training since he was a child..."
The person lying on the sofa sat up lazily and yawned.
His messy curly hair almost blocked his eyes, but the visible bags under his eyes were covered with a layer of gray, making him look like a profoundly blind patient.
He was not old, he looked like he was in his mid-twenties... The young man stood up, like a sleepy person, yawned again, then hunched his back, walked behind the table, and sat down , and then said: Please sit down.
Although the young man looked rather slovenly, the small basement seemed unusually clean, and everything was arranged in an unusually neat manner - even the thick-cover book that the young man had just thrown out hit the cage. Finally, it automatically flew back to the closet.
The maid pulled out the chair in front of the table and asked her master to sit down.
The mysterious young man opened his eyes slightly at this time and looked at everything. Then a look of confusion flashed before he said in surprise: "Alchemy doll? What an exquisite work... I didn't expect there to be such high technology here."
The maid frowned slightly when she heard this, but she said nothing because Luo Qiu was here - the master was also looking at this mysterious young man.
At the same time, the maid lady was even more impressed.
She knew very well what this mysterious young man was trying to spy on. If it had been in the past, such prying would have brought great fear to this mysterious young man - the real dragon of China had spied on several times before, and later Only then was he sealed as a child and spent a difficult time.
This young man is okay, which naturally means that her master has grown to the point of being able to limit the automatic operation of the club itself.
But this mysterious young man actually saw through the illusion outside himself...
"Hello." Luo Qiu said hello first.
"Hello." This mysterious young man also nodded. He seemed to be awake as if he was still sleeping, and his sitting posture was a little better. "You two should have nothing to do and need to come to my place, right?"
He didn't pay attention to the calmness of the man who came in and the alchemy doll - after all, the other man was obviously a powerful type, and he obviously wouldn't be surprised by the abnormality here - or, in other words, frightened by the supernatural power.
Luo Qiu smiled and said: "We were just passing by. We came in out of curiosity to have a look... The Cursed Horror House, may I ask what it does here."
The young man was straightforward, "It's just like the name of this house you saw. Curse killing, using curses to kill people. Naturally, this place accepts customers' curse killing commissions."
"Oh?" Luo Qiu nodded, "In this way...then how will the fee be charged?"
The young man smiled and said, "It depends on the situation and the target that needs to be cursed to kill. If the target individual is more difficult to curse, the charge will naturally be higher. If it is too high, even if one person is exchanged for one life, I may not accept it. , also depends on the mood.”
Luo Qiu thought for a while and asked curiously: "Is it just a curse to kill?"
The young man shrugged and said: "It can also cause misfortune, such as tripping while walking, swallowing when eating, suddenly falling ill, often having nightmares, suddenly withering while doing things, or simply being unable to lift. It is also relatively cheap."
"How is business?" Luo Qiu asked again.
The young man was stunned for a moment, but he replied: "It has just opened not long ago, so it is still deserted for the time being, but there are already a few customers."
Luo Qiu nodded, then stood up and said with a smile: "Excuse me, I will visit again when I have the opportunity, Mr. 24."
"Oh...ok." The young man nodded subconsciously.
After that, Luo Qiu walked up the steps. As for the maid, she pushed the chair where the master had sat back to its original place. This move naturally made the young man feel very comfortable, but what followed was the maid's reaction. A look made the young man shiver.
After knowing that the two had left, the young man frowned and said, "What the hell...how come there is such a powerful alchemy doll in this sub-world? An immortal doll? And this man, compared to me, is also...immortal? Supreme?"
He couldn't help but think deeply.
……
He is very weak now, not even one ten thousandth of his original size... And coming here is nothing more than an accident.
It all happened because of a time and space disorder more than two months ago, which caused cracks to appear in this sub-world, and he, who was exploring endless time and space... Its body, out of curiosity, released a thought and entered along the cracks. this sub-world.
But unexpectedly, the cracks were corrected in a short time, causing the connection between him and the main body to be directly cut off, and a trace of consciousness could only stay here.
The main body may not care about the disappearance of this trace of consciousness, but as this trace of consciousness trapped in the sub-world, it is not willing to shrink like this until it is wiped out, or even swallowed.
Yes, it will be eaten.
Because at the moment when the time and space of this sub-world suddenly became chaotic, besides it, there were several different powerful wills, which also split their own consciousness to explore this sub-world.
I'm afraid those few, like myself, have their split consciousnesses trapped here because of the cracks being repaired too quickly...
If you reach the level of immortality like his own body, you will naturally understand what benefits you can get if you can swallow this trace of the other party's consciousness,
Furthermore, since he was not recognized by the will of the world, he was like a black man in time and space. He needed to be careful - but if he kept curling up, that was not the answer... So, he began to resume his old business, doing what he had done many years ago. , the business before he was just a weak magician.
Thinking of this, the young man rubbed his chin, "Speaking of this sub-world, it's really interesting. The concentration of elements suddenly became richer, and it's still increasing. It's almost catching up with the half-demon world that I explored before... ”
At this time, Young 24 suddenly felt the table vibrate slightly.
He opened the drawer under the table, took out a mobile phone, took a look at it, and smiled, "Oh, there's business... It's best not to wake up forever? What the hell, such a low-level request... ...Forget it, small mosquitoes are still meat.”
……
"Immortal life?"
On the way back, Luo Qiu stopped. This was the maid's opinion.
"Yes, there is eternity above immortality. But it is not true eternity. It can only be regarded as pseudo-eternity at best. And even eternity has its strengths and weaknesses. For example, the one in heaven can be said to be the top pseudo-eternity. Called 'critical'." The maid nodded. , "Of course, this is just a name used by some sub-worlds for beings that transcend the will of the sub-world. It is generally popular in sub-worlds dominated by magic. For example, where the master is now, the immortals who once appeared, Same thing.”
"Magic..." Luo Qiu nodded.
For the boss, the most intuitive impression of magic is a boy with glasses with lightning on his forehead in a certain movie.
The maid lady added: "Although it is very weak, the owner of this horror house has a trace of incongruity. He should not be an aborigine of this sub-world... This is a bit strange. Generally speaking, even if it is relatively adjacent, There is a defense between the two sub-worlds that is very difficult to break. Although it is possible for detached people to travel between different sub-worlds through the dimensional gap, detached people usually have a hint of the unique atmosphere of the dimensional gap... It is a mark of the origin of the dimensional gap, but the owner of this horror house does not have it. He should have come through some means, and he has only been here recently."
It's basically very close to the truth... Yuye's speculation.
Luo Qiu nodded. He really had no intention of wasting time on this investigation, so he bought the information directly. After reading the information, the origin of the young man became clear.
"It turned out to be that time at the airport..." (End of Chapter)
