Chapter 23 Caught in the act


Chapter 23 Caught in the act
The tent was covered in blood, and most of the blood stains on the tent were radial.

Several army-green beddings were soaked with blood, and could even bleed after being twisted out after such a long time. The whole scene looked like it had been specially arranged by a perverted murderer, and it made people's scalp numb.

One thing to be clear is that about 70% of the human body is liquid, but not all of these liquids are blood. The normal total blood volume only accounts for 7% to 8% of the body weight.

To set up such a scene, it is estimated that nearly thirty kilograms of blood would be needed.

In other words, the blood of the six people living in the tent is probably here.

"That's too bad! Seal this place first, and be sure to find the body for me."

The calm voice sounded even colder: "Also, Xiao Li will take you to summon all the nearby citizens for questioning. Oh, I don't believe it. Six living people can disappear out of thin air. ?”

Soon, several footsteps appeared outside the tent where Lu Bai was.

Wow~
The door curtain was lifted with force.

Two soldiers in full uniform quickly entered and knocked on the tent with their rifle butts.

"Get up quickly."

After Fatty Gao woke up with a start, he closed his eyes and cursed angrily: "What the hell are you doing? Are you going to stop letting people sleep?!"

No one paid any attention to him when he scolded him, but instead helped wake up other people in the tent.

Lu Bai stood up silently and sat upright.

One of the dark-skinned soldiers waved his hand: "Everyone put on your clothes, hurry up."

"Mr. Soldier, what happened?" The thin young man rubbed his eyes, his voice still full of weakness.

"Stop talking nonsense and move faster."

At this moment, the sky is just getting dark.

More than a dozen citizens were sparsely gathered in a circle in the open space, including men and women, but everyone looked a little irritable.

There is no way, anyone who is forced to turn on the phone like this will not feel much better.

What's more, no one has told them what happened.

Within the yellow warning line, Zhou Zongming smoked a cigarette with a solemn expression.

With the hand holding the cigarette, he pointed to several nearby tents and asked: "This, this, and over there, is everyone here?"

Six people and half a platoon of soldiers searched nearby for a long time, but found nothing.

There were no other clues found in the tent, not to mention determining the number of murderers, not even a single suspicious footprint.

There's no way anyone can really carry six corpses around, right?

"Company Commander, everyone is here."

The soldiers who reported were also a little disappointed.

If a citizen really disappears suddenly, the suspect can barely be identified.

Zhou Zongming threw the cigarette butt on the ground: "Have you asked me all the questions?"

"I asked, but no one heard anything when it happened."

"Six people were killed without making a sound."

Zhou Zongming glanced sideways at the soldier: "Can you do it?"

The soldier smiled stiffly: "To be honest, if everyone is asleep, it shouldn't be difficult."

"What about the back? After the blood is drained, all six corpses will be packed up and taken away."

"Well, that's not going to work."

The soldier thought for a while and added: "Company commander, do you suspect there is more than one murderer?"

"He must be a veteran anyway... Damn!"

Zhou Zongming was halfway through talking when he suddenly noticed a figure leaning against the tent door, leaning his head hard to look inside.

This figure is naturally Lu Bai.

He stared at the interior of the tent for a long time.

Because the blood was unevenly distributed on the bedding, part of the blood solidified into blood clots, and part of it was naturally squeezed into blood blisters, making it look bumpy. It's like a bunch of multigrain pancakes smeared with ketchup.

It doesn't look like it was done by ordinary people.

"Hey! What are you doing, you boy?"

Zhou Zongming quickly walked over and grabbed him.

Didn't pull.

Lu Bai turned around and showed a harmless smile: "I'll just look around."

Zhou Zongming thought it was because he didn't exert much force just now, and waved his hand, signaling Lu Bai to get out quickly.

"Didn't you notice that there is a cordon here? No matter what you saw, forget about it."

Zhou Zongming glanced at the others. Because Lu Bai opened the door curtain, most of the gathered residents saw the scene in the tent. Cui Qing was even frightened to the point where his legs became weak and he sat down on the ground.

He didn't doubt Lu Bai. After all, a boy who looked like a high school student generally wouldn't make people feel dangerous, and he smiled so brightly.

Um? Smiling so brightly?

Zhou Zongming folded his arms and looked at Lu Bai again: "You kid, aren't you afraid?"

"What are you afraid of?"

Lu Bai said casually: "Maybe I am the murderer. Don't they say that from a psychological point of view, murderers usually like to return to the scene after the crime?"

Zhou Zongming was a little hurt. He didn't think Lu Bai was the murderer, he was just a high school student with weird behavior.

If you had to choose from the citizens in nearby tents, Fatty Gao and his group were actually more likely to be suspected.

"Okay, go back to bed quickly."

Ton ton ton~
In the evening, after squatting at the door of the tent and drinking up a bowl of seaweed and egg drop soup, Lu Bai smacked his lips and squinted his eyes to look at the people coming and going.

The tent next door is still cordoned off, but the blood stains inside the tent have long been cleaned up.

All daily necessities were packed and taken away as clues.

Everyone who was taken for questioning in the morning was also warned and was not allowed to spread the matter outside.

Even if there is a fragment of it that someone doesn't know who has spread it, it is at best used as a topic for after-dinner chat.

From the perspective of most residents, today is still an ordinary day.

However, Lu Bai never let down his guard all day long.

He knew very well that there was a Death Fighter nearby.

Although it is unclear why the other party would choose to attack ordinary people, the ultimate goal will definitely return to hunting and killing combatants.

"Now that things have happened..."

Lu Bai picked up the dinner plate: "... let's eat first."

The passage of time does not change according to human will, and night falls again.

After all, he was forcibly woken up before dawn, so he felt sleepy very early.

The tall fat man didn't chat with the two younger brothers as usual. His head hit the pillow and he started snoring soon.

Everyone in the tent fell asleep one after another.

Military tents are extremely light-proof.

After the lights are turned off, even if it's not to the point where you can't see your fingers, it's not much better.

In the darkness, a heart-wrenching sob sounded.

The figure could only be distinguished by the faint light coming from the gap in the door curtain.

It was a person, holding a strong figure upside down.

Just like when killing a chicken, first give the chicken a knife on the neck, then grab the two legs of the chicken and lift it up to speed up the bleeding.
