Chapter 59: Crisis and Crisis Awareness
Opening the box, an eight clawed diamond ring, under the light of the hospital room, flickered with a bit of light.
I closed the lid in a panic, wanting to call Liu Ke to tell him to come back, subconsciously not thinking about what Shen Chong said.
As a result, Shen Chong unexpectedly took the cell phone away.
Lying on the bed, I didn't want to move and drifted off to sleep.
The next day, Shen Chong pushed me awake, and I looked at him expressionlessly.
Then, he handed me four lab sheets.
"The results are out, Liu Ke can't escape." Shen Chong's words, word by word, were like a single heavy hammer that struck my heart.
I pushed away the sheets in his hands and curled up at the head of the bed, trembling, "With the lab sheets, you're able to prove that Liu Ke is the murderer?"
Shen Chong picked up the sheets, then looked at me and said, "Do you know why I didn't go to arrest Liu Ke? I was afraid that after I saw him, I couldn't help but pop him straight away with one shot."
I had never heard such cold words without any emotional coloring, as if they were squeezed out a little bit from the cold ice.
I looked at Shen Chong with a pale, stubborn face.
Shen Chong, however, a trace of blood appeared inside his eyes and looked at me dead on, "Do you know how A Mei died?"
"She was first abused and then tortured." A drop of blood, dripped from the corner of Shen Chong's mouth. He put his teeth, biting into his lips.
My entire being was like an ice cellar as I muttered, "That's why you wanted Liu Ke's blood."
Shen Chong folded the lab sheet together bit by bit, and the blood that fell from the corner of his lips hit the paper with a snapping sound.
"I shouldn't have gone to the hospital, I should have stayed at home all this time, I was too arrogant, but Mae was the one who suffered so much because of me." Shen Chong choked, then tears mixed with blood, making his face, all of a sudden, become hideous.
"Liu Ke is the murderer." I curled up helplessly, the principal all the way up to Bai Mei, the bodies of several people skimming over and over from my mind, as well as Chen Yanlu, who was being used.
Then at this time, wouldn't Chen Yanlu have been captured by Liu Ke?
I quickly dressed, and Shen Chong stopped me.
"The surveillance of the entire urban area, was mobilized at the same time, and yesterday, after Liu Ke left here, he came into our sight. Now, your university has been completely blocked off."
I pushed his hand away unwillingly, and said with an ugly face, "And the basement, have you forgotten what's in the basement?"
Shen Chong's face also changed.
Just at this time, his phone suddenly rang.
He looked at the phone with a grave expression, then pressed answer.
On the other end of the phone, a voice that trembled with fear came over.
"Brother Shen, we didn't catch anyone."
Shen Chong's face was ironic as he shouted at the other end of the phone, "Won't you guys go and search!"
"He, he, ah ……," after a sharp hiss, there was suddenly a garbled sound inside the phone.
My whole heart sank, and I said with some trembling, "Did he release the things in the basement."
Shen Chong didn't reply to my words, but turned around and walked outside in big strides. I haphazardly put on my shoes and hobbled on my feet as I jogged after him to catch up.
The sky was overcast as if it had turned into lead, ready to fall at any moment.
Shen Chong drove in silence, then kept dialing the phone, but none of them could get through.
When they arrived at the school, a large cordon had already been drawn there, and Shen Chong's car was stopped.
The dry and skinny criminal police officer who looked like a monkey with a somewhat ugly face told Shen Chong about the situation. I realized that they didn't seem to know that Shen Chong had to come over, and that phone call, it should have been made by the person who entered the basement, but why did they do it? That last scream was so harsh that it did not sound like a human voice. Then the call was interrupted.
Could it be that Liu Ke forced him to call Shen Chong, and then ……
I didn't dare to think about it, but Shen Chong suddenly said to me, "You're out there, they're all my buddies, so unless they're killed, you won't be in danger."
I gritted my teeth and shook my head, saying, "I want to go in."
Shen Chong handed me a pistol in silence.
The cold touch of the gun caused a fine layer of goosebumps to rise on my body.
"The entire school was completely searched, our target focused on the basement of the library, but the team that went in now is completely disconnected, and the higher-ups are arranging for another team." Monkey police said.
Shen Chong, however, with a cold face, pulled my hand and walked step by step in the direction of the library.
The monkey cop tried to block, but Shen Chong directly put his gun on his head.
We arrived at the door of the library.
There was still a cordon and a large number of police officers guarding the outside.
These ordinary policemen could handle simple cases, but for real criminal felons, they would need Shen Chong and the others.
Inside the library, it was a mess, and the bookcases had been moved to the corner position. The entrance to the basement, facing Shen Chong and I, is a black hole, like an endless abyss.
Follow Shen Chong to catch Liu Ke is not a moment of passion, Liu Ke likes me, Chen Yanlu was used by him, that is, he wants to get rid of Chen Yanlu, as for why not like killing the principal to do it, I guess, if Chen Yanlu direct death, in case I like Chen Yanlu, then I will certainly be sad, but if Chen Yanlu stink, then I will be disgusted with him. Moreover, Liu Ke won't have any influence, and in turn, he will be detached from all the bloodshed.
I somewhat regret being a detective, a lot of things, do not think about it when you do not think about it, think they are very good, but once you open the threads, all the dubious points, will all be placed in front of your eyes.
Shen Chong and I did not enter the basement the first time, the last time I went in with Liu Yamei, I ate enough to suffer without equipment, Liu Yamei life lost inside, I have a great responsibility.
After that, I learned that Liu Yamei was actually also insulted after the abuse, Shen Chong let the serious crimes unit to deal with the body, the police department, to the end of the notification.
Liu Ke's likeness, in the bottom of my heart, has turned into a ball of ink. I tightly covered the pink box with the ring in my chest.
Chen Yanlu must not die, I took Shen Chong's gun and hid it inside my clothes. I had already made up my mind, if Shen Chong couldn't catch Liu Ke, I would use my own methods.
Shen Chong watched my movements, frowning a little, just about to speak, I shook my head and pointed to the wall and the people outside.
He nodded, and the equipment we needed was sent in by the monkey.
Including there are two strong flashlight, this kind of torch can make a person short time blindness, four ordinary torch, a number of batteries, the basement inside do not know how long, preparedness, bulletproof vest, I looked at the bulletproof vest, but hesitated, but gritted his teeth, or put on in the clothes of the interlayer.
Intercom headset, the size of a button, glued to the inside of my ear, Shen Chong likewise brought one.
Handcuffs, electric batons, and even a few tiny iron finger rings.
I don't know what Shen Chong used to get a bottle of black dog blood.
Instead, he frowned and handed it to me, "I don't believe in ghosts in the world, but this is for your defense."
I looked at his appearance and couldn't help but laugh out loud, but remembering the tragic death of Bai Mei and the others, the words were blocked in my chest.
The equipment should be put into the clothes put clothes, don't don't don't don't don't don't don't don't don't put it on the waist. I don't have a police uniform, Mae so many pockets, but fortunately my jacket's pockets are large enough, the baton is small, the flashlight is also not big, surprisingly, all loaded in.
Shen Chong was the head of the flashlight, walked into the basement entrance. I carefully held the black dog blood and followed behind him.
The location of the fork in the road, I remembered those things I saw when I first came in with Chen Yanlu, stopped Shen Chong, "He can't be outside the place, find your colleagues who came in at the very beginning, maybe we will be able to find clues."
Shen Chong nodded, then we continued to walk forward.
Along the way, under the glow of the flashlight, I could fully see the passageway for the first time.
The masonry was already blackened and oily, reflecting the light, but I could smell a faint smell of blood.
Shen Chong's footsteps suddenly quickened, and I followed closely.
A set of police uniforms appeared at the place of the passage in front of us.
My eyelids jumped wildly.
The police uniform and pants were attached together, lying flat on the ground, where was the person?
Shen Chong's face was ugly as he went to use the torch to flick the police uniform, but a few tiny transparent worms quickly crawled out from inside the clothes, my face was pale for a while, I immediately went forward and stomped on the worms with all my might.
Shen Chong frowned and wanted to analyze it, I told him with an ugly face, "The person is no longer there." Then, I told Shen Chong about the last time I entered this place with Huang Weiwei. Shen Chong narrowed his eyes and moved down in silence.
What I didn't tell Shen Chong was that those bugs, they couldn't eat bones, moreover, when I stepped on those bugs just now, I actually felt a hardness, they no longer looked like they could be killed so easily. At least if you don't exert yourself, you can't step on them at all.
After walking for a while, we saw a few more sets of police uniforms that we didn't have to uncover, and Shen Chong's face became more and more ugly as a cell phone appeared on the ground. Shen Chong picked it up and put it in his bag.
There was no body next to the cell phone and no empty police uniforms.
I carefully watched the surroundings. But Shen Chong suddenly said, "You can't follow me."
I frowned in disbelief, and Shen Chong narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "He won't come out, haven't you noticed. They all died when they got here. But the two of us haven't encountered any danger yet."
Shen Chong's words were like a blow to the head.
I couldn't help but think of the three times I had entered this place before, and every time, even if there was danger, it was always the person next to me who was in trouble, and it never reached me. I clenched my teeth and covered the position of my chest.
But if I leave, Shen Chong is afraid that without seeing Liu Ke, he will be eaten by these bugs without any bones left. I suddenly thought and then told Shen Chong.
Shen Chong shook his head and decided to leave first and come back in after mobilizing more manpower.
This is the horror of a true criminal police officer, they won't be like those soldiers on the battlefield, all bloodthirsty. They valued their lives, and they would use every means to catch the murderer.
Shen Chong was even more demonstrative to the extreme, and when he smelled the scent of danger that he couldn't handle, he immediately had to back off. If he dies, he won't be able to see the murderer ambushed, and he won't be able to avenge Bai Mei's death.
I somewhat understood why, but I had my own way, so I didn't agree to leave with Shen Chong.
"You take care of yourself." Shen Chong said as he stepped back.
I nodded my head, and then with a flashlight, I continued to walk down.
I soon walked into the iron door that Liu Yamei and I found at that time, and I could hear my heartbeat and breathing inside the quiet tunnel.
I took out the tiny jewelry box in my arms and started walking deeper into the passage.
The sound of falling water ticked and echoed for a long time, and I watched my head attentively, looking for those hidden doors I had missed last time.
Liu Ke had been forced in, and should be hiding inside, then manipulating the creatures, or possibly just leaving.
Inside the gun Shen Chong gave me, there were five rounds of bullets, and while Liu Ke wouldn't kill me, I had to save Chen Yanlu.
He should not be dead. If he died, Liu Ke would not be able to achieve his goal, and in turn, he would have exposed himself for nothing.
As I walked, suddenly, a silhouette appeared at the far end of the passage.
Cold sweat broke out on my back again, and I softly called out, "Liu Ke?"
No voice answered, I endured the throbbing of my scalp and slowly approached, Chen Ran Lu unexpectedly stood in the middle of the passageway, looking at me with lifeless eyes.
I was shocked in my heart, I was about to walk over quickly, when I suddenly realized something was wrong.
Chen Yanlu's head, surprisingly there was no wound. I squinted slightly, put the jewelry box into my pocket, took out the electric stick, and slowly approached.
Sure enough, this is also a model, a plastic model.
I looked at the end of the passage with some trembling, and there, another figure appeared.
What does Liu Ke mean? The model of Chen Yanlu, could it be that he has killed Chen Yanlu.
With a flashlight, I bypassed the first model and walked backwards.
The moment I saw the second model's likeness clearly, my whole body felt sunk.
It was Bai Mei, a naked Bai Mei, with gruesome bloody holes all over her body, looking at me with a hideous face. Her hair was scattered over her shoulders and back.
I stepped back with an ugly look on my face, already thinking of what else was going to come up behind me.
All the dead people, in the form of models, would be placed inside the passageway.
It shouldn't be against me, but the police officers who were able to enter this place.
I shouted out Liu Ke's name, but all that was left was an echo.
Liu Ke is not here? Impossible, I continued to shout, then backed up to the entrance of the iron door.
Suddenly, a hand, rested on my shoulder, I was shocked and shivered, a familiar voice, appeared in my ears.
"Why did you come." Turning back to me, Liu Ke looked at me grimly.
I looked at his face, bit my lip, and slapped his face, but I didn't expect him to grab my hand with one hand.
I just wanted to speak, but my eyes suddenly went black, and the last thing I realized was that I saw Liu Ke holding a small white bottle and shaking it at the tip of my nose.
When I woke up, I was in the middle of a huge room, I wanted to get up, but my body was weak.
Liu Ke was playing with a delicate black pistol in his hand, and a pink jewelry box, but his face was fluttering.
My heart, sank.
Inside the room were all kinds of transparent jars, and I looked at the things bubbling inside with a pale face.
There were cockroaches, there were those bugs, there were a few puppies, and more, there were creatures that I hadn't seen appear at all.
I looked at Liu Ke with a pale face and gritted my teeth, "It's really you."
Liu Ke teased, "Maybe."
"Where's Morning Research Dew." I stared him dead in the eyes.
Liu Ke, however, shrugged and didn't say anything.
"You killed him." I tried to go for the gun in his hand when Lauk grabbed my wrist and then slammed it so close to my body that I choked on a strong smell of formalin from him and almost didn't throw up.
Liu Ke grinned and pinched my jaw, I looked at him with a pale face.
But he licked the corner of his lips and said, "I can't imagine why the two of them would like a stinky girl like you, Liu Yamei and Bai Mei taste good, but they're not fresh, you should still be a virgin, right?"
I looked at Liu Ke in horror, thinking of what he wanted to do, but the sharp pain in my jaw and the feeling of powerlessness in my body left me with no way to resist.
I remembered Bai Mei's voice from the night before she died, and at first I thought it was Shen Chong, associating it with what he said just now, and the last words Bai Mei said to me before she died, I thought with a pale face that Liu Ke didn't know what tactics he had used to threaten Bai Mei, and that he had first taken over her body, and finally killed her.
But what does the ring say? Is that what Liu Ke's nature is?
He loosened my jaw, I didn't even have a chance to spit on him, but he had already taken off his shirt.
I want to close my eyes in despair, in vain I thought that Liu Ke really liked me at the beginning, and wanted to assassinate him, I did not expect to end up in this situation now, it is also considered to be the blame.
But just before closing my eyes, I looked at Liu Ke's upper body.
A huge scar, from his left shoulder, down to his waist. It was like a hideous centipede.
My eyes widened with shortness of breath, I had inadvertently seen Liu Ke's upper body in the first half of the month and did not realize that he had such a wound, and this kind of injury was not something that could be formed in just half a month's time.
A terrible thought rose from the bottom of my heart.
Liu Ke, however, laughed and pounced.
