Psychic

From the moment he entered the door, Jun Chengzong felt the mysterious spirit smell that appeared together with the smell of blood.

Although the cold breath emanating from the dice on the wrist is a little faint, it is definitely unmistakable. This is the breath of the mysterious spirit body. I am afraid that the edge spirit is still in this house now.

"Search separately and find the object that the edge spirit is attached to."

The landlady has gone to find the cleaning company, and she will probably be back soon. We must find the thing that the edge spirit is attached to before the landlady comes back.

Jun Chengzong walked towards the bedroom, while Judy took out the EVP detector from her bag and searched among the messy things in the living room.

The house still looks like it did after the murder. Even the blood stains on the walls have not been cleaned. Even the marks drawn by the police during the scene investigation are still there.

However, this just provided convenience to Jun Chengzong.

Ke Shiqing's body was cut into more than a dozen pieces and scattered in various corners of the house, while the head was placed alone on the coffee table in the living room. The marks made by the police at the scene can also prove this.

As a result, Jun Chengzong was a little confused.

According to common sense, if a fringe spirit wants to kill someone, it doesn't need to expend much effort at all. But why does this murdering fringe spirit want to cut the body into pieces after killing, and finally throw the body parts in various corners of the house?

What's the motivation?

After carefully observing the markings made by the police on the corpses scattered everywhere, Jun Chengzong suddenly discovered that these corpses did not seem to be randomly thrown around the room.

Jun Chengzong took a simple measurement and found that the distance between adjacent corpses was about three steps. This should not be a simple coincidence.

Could it be that the body parts of Ke Shiqing were deliberately placed here like this by the edge spirit?

Thinking of this, Jun Chengzong quickly took out a pen from his body, then pulled out a piece of paper from the table next to him, walked quickly to the dining table, laid the paper flat on the dining table, and simply drew the layout of the room. floor plan.

"George, did you find anything?" Seeing Jun Chengzong like this, Judy quickly came over and asked.

While Jun Chengzong marked the scattered corpses on the simple house plan he drew, he explained to Judy: "I think the distribution of corpses may not be as simple as the police imagined..."

However, before Jun Chengzong could finish speaking, a deep and cold feeling suddenly came from the dice on his wrist.

Um?

The breath of this mysterious spirit came quite suddenly, and Jun Chengzong had not noticed it until he suddenly arrived.

"That is……"

Jun Chengzong frowned slightly and looked in the direction where the mysterious spirit aura was exuding. He saw a solitary playing card placed in the direction of Jun Chengzong's left hand.

Q of Hearts.

I don't know why, but from this simple-looking playing card, an aura that is as powerful as the Edge Spirit's own body burst out.

Jun Chengzong felt the cold aura coming from the dice, like an abyss, and couldn't help but glance at Judy beside him.

Judy and Jun Chengzong looked at each other. Years of tacit understanding made her immediately realize what Jun Chengzong had discovered, and quickly turned on the EVP detector in her hand.

However, as soon as the EVP detector was turned on, a rather harsh alarm sound was heard from inside.

At the same time, the indicator light on the EVP detector also turns red.

This is it!

However, how did a mere playing card exude such a powerful mysterious spirit?

When Jun Chengzong picked up the playing card, all the problems were solved.

"It's an ethereal thing."

Jun Chengzong looked at the pool of black viscous liquid under the playing cards and suddenly took a breath.

Jun Chengzong and Zhu Di both knew that the appearance of the ethereal object meant that they might be facing an extremely powerful edge spirit.

There has always been a saying in academic research on mysterious spirits that when an extremely evil edge spirit with considerable energy appears, this black viscous liquid will appear.

This viscous liquid is the "ethereal thing".

Since people discovered ethereal objects, countless organizations and scientific departments have begun to study ethereal objects, but no one, including the Psychic Association and the Exorcism Chamber, can tell what exactly this ethereal object is. substance.

Moreover, the appearance of ethereal objects can only mean that a powerful fringe spirit has appeared here. It does not have any specific help for exorcism and channeling. Therefore, the research on ethereal objects has also come to a halt for a time. There has been no substantial progress for more than ten years.

However, the appearance of ethereal objects at least helped Jun Chengzong determine that this was a typical fringe spirit murder incident and avoid some other interference items.

After that, Jun Chengzong and Judy checked everything else in the house in detail, and only after confirming that there was nothing else with the aura of the mysterious spirit body did they give up.

After a while, the landlady came with people from the cleaning company, while Jun Chengzong and Judy took the opportunity to make an excuse and left.

After that, the two returned to the hotel as quickly as possible.

After returning, Judy immediately began to investigate information that might be related to the incident of the edge spirit's body dismemberment, while Jun Chengzong was studying the Q of Hearts.

The ethereal thing is attached to this ordinary-looking playing card. Does that mean that this playing card is related to the edge spirit?

"Yes!"

Judy slammed the space bar in front of her, and her frowning eyebrows finally relaxed.

When Jun Chengzong heard this, he immediately walked quickly to Judy and asked, "What did you find?"

Judy tilted the computer screen slightly towards Jun Chengzong and said, "Same modus operandi, serial murder and body dismemberment case thirty years ago."

Jun Chengzong took a look and saw on the webpage a scan of an old newspaper.

"Case of Brutal Dismemberment Found in a House in Hexi"

On the other side of the city, someone in the Major Crimes Division of the police station also found the same information.

"Team Leader Cheng, this is all the information we have found related to this corpse dismemberment case." Pei Wenbin placed the case file he found in front of the head of the serious crime team. Although it was all the case files, there was only this A small folder.

Cheng Yingshao nodded. He was busy with the matter at hand and had no time to read it. He could only ask Pei Wenbin to put the case file on the table and then go to work first.

However, Pei Wenbin had no intention of leaving.

"What?" Cheng Yingshao raised his head and glanced at Pei Wenbin. Seeing that Pei Wenbin was still stuck there like an oak tree, he immediately asked, "Is there anything else?"

Pei Wenbin nodded and expressed his doubts: "Team leader, I have already read this case file. From a time perspective, if these two cases can be investigated together, then the murderer must at least be He’s over eighty years old.”
