The imaginative girl feels that a bad guy will suddenly appear.The more I want to quickly wash off the foam on my hair, but I feel that the more foam there is, the time passes by, my heart beats faster, I am very nervous, and I start to have a strange feeling.Subconsciously, he thought that someone had already appeared beside him, and he approached, approaching quietly.The girl shouted in her heart not to, don't come here, I don't want to die.Finally, after rinsing in a hurry, I opened my eyes, and there was nothing around. Every time I washed my hair, I felt a new life.

The best time to kill a girl is when she's washing her hair!
A murder case occurred in Jiazhou Dahlia Hotel. A girl disappeared mysteriously after checking into the hotel.

The girl's name is Lan Ke'er, 21 years old, and she came to Jiazhou City for tourism. Lan Ke'er was in contact with her family every day, but suddenly stopped on the second day she stayed in the hotel.Two weeks after Lan Keer went missing, the police released the last video of her in the hotel elevator, hoping that someone in the know could provide clues to find her.

About 4 minutes into the video, there seems to be an invisible person following her, which is very weird, weird, supernatural, and puzzling.

The video shows that after she walked into the elevator, she pressed the buttons on all floors, and then hid in the dead corner of the elevator.Everything was normal at this time, she suddenly bent down, a little hunchbacked posture.About 10 seconds later, the elevator door moved, but it did not close. She stuck her head out of the elevator to look around, then walked out cautiously, stood outside the elevator for about 30 seconds, put her head in her hands and entered the elevator again, and pressed all keys again. Floor buttons.After a while, Lan Ke'er walked out of the elevator again, danced outside the elevator, and then snapped her fingers like counting numbers.About 15 seconds later, the missing girl Lan Keer left the sight of the elevator monitor.

This elevator video spread all over the Internet and was widely reported by news media at home and abroad. Coupled with mysterious and supernatural colors, it finally attracted the attention of the whole world.

The next day, the police found Lan Keer's body in the water tank on the roof of the hotel.

The water tank on the roof was a large round iron tank. Lan Keer was floating in the water tank with her head, feet, and feet missing. Her clothes were missing.

Was it homicide, suicide, or an accidental death, or, as netizens said, Lan Keer was possessed by a ghost?
The Jiazhou police invited the special case team to assist in solving the case. Prior to this, the special case team had watched the video and learned about the relevant case. They had just appeared at the Dahlia Hotel when they were surrounded by journalists.

Many microphones were stretched out, and reporters asked questions one after another. Professor Liang said to the camera:
This is a strange case. What is certain is that Lan Keer, the deceased, must have encountered very strange things, so that he had the strange behavior that everyone saw in the video.We do not presuppose a position, but let the evidence speak for itself, and conduct an investigation based on the results of the on-site inspection and autopsy, and we cannot comment on the others for the time being.

Several police officers stopped the reporters who were questioning, and the special case team decided to use this hotel as the headquarters for handling the case. The person in charge of the Jiazhou police strengthened the security force, and arranged police officers to be on duty 24 hours a day in the hotel lobby, ready to be dispatched at any time.

The person in charge of the Jiazhou police accompanied the special case team to take the elevator to the fourth floor, which is also the floor where Lan Keer lives.

Su Mei imitated Lan Ke'er's movements outside the elevator and said: I noticed that she made a stroke gesture, and ended up dying in the water tank on the roof. It's really weird.

Hualong said: Xiaomei, don't be naughty.

Bao Zhan twitched his nose and said: What is the smell in the elevator, it stinks.

Professor Liang said: Tonight, Xiaomei, you are in charge of doing the crime simulation.

Su Mei said: Why, Xiaobao used to do this.

Professor Liang said: Because you and Lan Keer are both women, you can better understand her psychology at that time.

Su Mei said: Well, I think it's quite fun.

Professor Liang said: Also, you have to live in Lan Keer's room.

Su Mei said: Uncle Liang, I hate you!

The Dahlia Hotel has 15 floors. Lan Keer lives in Room 4 on the 414th floor. This is a double bed room. The room is dirty and small, and has a musty smell.After the murder, the police have sealed off the room and inspected the scene many times, hoping to use precision instruments to extract fingerprints, footprints, palm prints, secretions, clothing fibers, hair strands, etc. left by the criminals. There are no traces left by the deceased, and there is no sign of suspicious personnel breaking in.

The police led police dogs to conduct a carpet search in the hotel, but no valuable clues have been found.

This hotel has a long history, the design is a bit unscientific, the corridors are like a maze, and the room numbers are not connected.The corridor is Y-shaped, there are many monitoring dead spots, and the sound insulation effect of the room is also poor. The color of the corridor wall and the room is very strange. In addition to white, there are more red, which is a bit like the color of cooling blood, giving people a depressive sense of terror .

The person in charge of the Jiazhou police said: After preliminary investigation, there is already a suspect.

Professor Liang said: If it was a homicide, this person must not be the murderer.

The person in charge of the Jiazhou police said: The suspect is a staff member of the hotel, who holds the key that can open the door of Lan Keer's room.

Professor Liang said: This is quite normal, and the staff can definitely open the door.

Su Mei said: Oh my God, I am determined not to live in Lan Keer's room, I sleep in the middle of the night, what should I do if someone suddenly comes in.

Professor Liang said: Don't worry, you are absolutely safe, Xiaobao and Hualong will live next door to you.

The person in charge of the Jiazhou police communicated with the hotel. The special case team moved into the fourth floor where Lan Keer was at that time. The police temporarily requisitioned the hotel’s conference room. The conference room focused on discussing Lan Keer's video recording.

Lan Keer's other videos in the Dahlia Hotel are all normal, only the elevator video before she disappears is very weird.

Su Mei slowed down the surveillance video and made it into a static picture, discussing each frame and analyzing her abnormal behavior.

The person in charge of the Jiazhou police said: It was 31 am on the 2st, and she lived on the 4th floor. No one knew why she appeared on the 14th floor, and what she encountered on the 14th floor.We checked other surveillance videos. Lan Keer was supposed to be on the 14th floor of the fire exit and only stopped for a short time.

Su Mei said: She went down the elevator, wearing a red top and black skirt, slippers on her feet, flat breasts and no bra. We can be sure that girls don’t wear such slippers to go out, so she definitely didn’t come from outside the hotel. back.Instead, he went up to the 14th floor from his own room, and then came down from the 14th floor.

Bao Zhan said: After Lan Keer entered the elevator, she bent down to press the elevator button, and she was very close. This was because she was short-sighted and did not wear glasses at the time.I noticed that the photos of Lan Keer on major news websites all wear glasses. This information is very important, and it may be one of the reasons that affect her behavior.At that time, she couldn't see everything in front of her, but she realized the danger and the situation was urgent.

Hualong said: There is a widely circulated saying that if you are followed by a suspicious person, you must press the button of each floor after entering the elevator to prevent people from knowing which floor you live in. I think Lan Keer may have been followed by someone at that time.

Professor Liang said: There are three reasons why the elevator does not close. First, someone outside the elevator presses the buttons; second, the elevator terminal system is controlled; third, the elevator is broken.Some criminals can also block the door with ice, or stick a coin on the hold button of the elevator, so that the elevator door cannot be closed, but this is also exposed to the elevator monitoring.

The person in charge of the Jiazhou police said: There are several possibilities for the strange behavior in the elevator. She was joking with an acquaintance; she encountered something frightening and was avoiding something; , resulting in abnormally exaggerated movements.

Professor Liang said: We have to follow the direction of the homicide to investigate, because she died in the water tank and her clothes were missing.

The person in charge of the Jiazhou police said: The door leading to the roof is usually locked, opening it forcibly will set off the alarm.So far, although the body has been found, we cannot even make a conclusion about suicide or homicide.There was no trauma to the body, and the deceased had no history of mental disorders before her death. Whether she had taken drugs or taken some kind of hallucinogenic drugs needs further autopsy to determine.

Hualong asked: How long?
The person in charge of the Jiazhou police said: It will take a week.

Professor Liang said: Then tell the media that it will take 6 to 8 weeks to get the results of the toxicology test, to buy us time.

Bao Zhan said: A normal girl has become abnormal, she must have seen something.

Professor Liang said: This may be a case of homicide disguised as suicide.

The special case team analyzed three mysteries of the case and how to start the investigation next.

The biggest suspects are the guests who stayed in the hotel on the day of Lan Keer's disappearance, especially the guests on the 14th floor, as well as the hotel staff.

Lan Keer disappeared after leaving the elevator at 1 am on January 31. The forensic doctor preliminarily believed that she died on February 2, the day after she disappeared. On February 1, the hotel conducted a water quality inspection, which showed that everything was normal. The body was found on the 2th, which means that Lan Keer's body was probably hidden by the mysterious murderer for two weeks, and was quietly discarded into the water tank after the water quality inspection was completed.

Lan Keer checked into the Dahlia Hotel on January 1th and disappeared on the 27st. What happened in the past few days was beyond Lan Keer's mental capacity. She may have heard some threatening words, met scary people, or experienced some scary thing.What happened in those few days may have caused Lan Keer to have a mental breakdown, but she did not call the police or ask for help. What she avoided might be some supernatural and inexplicable thing, and it was fear that drove her crazy!
