Yin Yang Tomb Raider

Chapter 409 Cut in half, the past

"You mean the body wasn't broken in two when it was delivered, but just now?" I asked.

The emergency doctor nodded: "There was a lot of blood before, so there was no bleeding. The man said something before he died, but I didn't hear it clearly."

Lian Haitang didn't know when she came in, she stood behind the emergency doctor and asked darkly: "What did you say?"

The emergency doctor scratched his head, and a little nurse came in and said timidly, "He said it was impossible, he wasn't real..."

"Impossible, he's not real?" Lian Haitang asked, "Are you sure?"

Lian Haitang, who was wearing a mask, only showed a pair of gloomy eyes. The little nurse was a little frightened. She nodded and ran out. Impossible, he is not real. What does this sentence mean? Huacheng and the local police officers The communication and negotiation have gone, well, let’s call it a negotiation, anyway, they will use their unique identities to take the initiative, Tao Ran and I walked towards the corpse, his fists were tightly clenched, Lao Jiu came over, directly used Opening his fist with his hands, he saw what was inside, his expression changed, and he said nothing...

The middle-aged man was holding the fragments of the group photo until his death. I stretched out my hand, pulled the white cloth up, and covered the middle-aged man's face again. He will never see the poor daughter again. I closed my eyes and turned my head. Dizzy, as if someone had hit me with a hammer, I looked up and saw Lao Jiu with his eyes closed thinking about something: "Old Jiu?"

He opened his eyes and said, "I'm fine. They say that you have evil spirits, and the more you use them, the more you will get retribution on yourself one day. This is retribution for him. Ge Laozi, I'm killing people, so I'll go out first."

We also went out, leaving the rest to Tao Ran and Huacheng. Lian Haitang walked behind us and said suddenly: "The wound is not right."

"Tao Ran and Seventh Sister said this just now." I said, "Usually a guillotine is used, but Seventh Sister said that it doesn't correspond to the thickness of the guillotine."

"Although there are few, there is Yin Qi in the section." Lian Haitang said: "It seems to be there, Meng Luo has a lot of tools on him, let him verify it."

I was startled, Lao Jiu had already run up and went to Batu's ward to look for Meng Luo, who went to the emergency room with his backpack containing his work, and came back after a while, he verified Lian Haitang's statement, the cross section of the wound A little yin, very little, very little!

Lian Haitang said: "It's strange, is there another expert around him?"

Lian Haitang was very distressed, but I was interested in the last words of the middle-aged man before he died, it was impossible, he was not real, he didn't believe that someone could kill him with spiritual power, he didn't expect it to come so soon?

My head was dizzy, and at this moment, the tiger came: "The twins are awake, how is Batu?"

"Not yet." As I said, I went to the ward to visit the twins first. They regretted that they lost consciousness at an important moment, especially Nan Hai, whose regret was written all over their faces. They insisted on going to the ward to guard Batu. He couldn't stop him, so he had to let him go. Seventh Sister and Lao Jiu were planning something, and after a while, Seventh Sister left with the members of the Qinghu Club.

"How did they go?" I asked.

Lao Jiu said: "There are too many people, but it's not easy to do things. They don't have anything to do here."

"It's okay, but they are in danger here." I said, "Batu's injury has been bandaged again, and it will be difficult to recover in a short time. Should we continue to stay here?"

"According to me, stay for another three or five days." Lao Jiu said, "Don't you think there is always one eye staring at us?"

I nodded slightly, and Lao Jiu said: "Besides, talking about the interests and the life of my brother, I won't ignore the latter for the sake of the former. I am not a ruthless person."

"I'm not either." I said angrily, "Tell yourself that you are too affectionate and righteous, and you dare to think that we are ruthless people? Get out of here."

Lao Jiu is still carrying a backpack. For the sake of safety, he hangs the backpack in front of his eyes all the time. I can't help laughing when I look at Lao Jiu. Huacheng and Tao Ran went out and said that they would I went to see the place where the middle-aged man was found, and I didn’t come back until dark. By the way, I brought dinner for everyone. I paid for a single ward for Batu. The place is small and the resources of the hospital are sufficient. A single room, the conditions are not much better, but happy, everyone gathered together for dinner, Batu finally woke up, looking a little dazed, Donghai was so excited that tears flowed down, he leaned down and called: "Uncle Batu ..."

Batu opened his eyes and saw us. He wanted to talk, but Lao Jiu said, "Needless to say, save your energy and recover quickly."

"What happened?" Batu's lips were split, and Tao Ran touched his lips with a wet towel and said, "We found the golden mask, but we still let Mr. K run away."

"I've dragged you down." Batu said guiltily.

"It's okay, your old injury hasn't healed, and the injury caused massive bleeding, almost sepsis." Lao Jiu said: "Now that you've been rescued, the trauma is actually alright. You're a man, and you will definitely be discharged from the hospital in five days."

"Five days? Five days is too long." Batu said: "We will return to the imperial capital tomorrow, and we must find a way to get the last mask."

"Three days." Lao Jiu said, "Everyone give in one step at a time."

Batu finally nodded in agreement. Seventh Sister left a lot of medicine when she left. These medicines are very useful for Batu's external injuries. As for the internal injuries, they can only be suppressed by anti-inflammatory drugs. For three days, Tao Ran and Huacheng spent all of their time with him. The local police inquired about the identity of the middle-aged man, ascertained the surrounding conditions at the time of his death, and collected clues from witnesses. Three days later, on the day Batu was discharged from the hospital, Tao Ran and Huacheng did not get any reliable news.

Because of the passport, we know the identity of the middle-aged man, and we also know that their husband and wife are divorced, and their daughter lives with their mother. There is no way to see his daughter. The most bizarre thing is that the soul of the middle-aged man did not leave the body when he died. This is what Lian Haitang thought of on the way back.

"The only explanation is that the soul of this person has dissipated at the moment of death." Meng Luo said: "The other party knows who we are, so they calculated in advance. If the person dies, the soul will also be wiped out."

Hai Dongqing quite agreed, and immediately nodded in agreement, and I "cut": "As an afterthought."

It's just a pity that the little girl has no father anymore. I hope she will live with the love that her father left in the world. When she grows up, there will be no shadow over her heart. The first thing we do when we return to the imperial capital is still to send Batu to In the hospital closest to the police station, Meng Luo, Lao Jiu, and the twin guards, Tao Ran, Hai Dongqing, and Lian Haitang, and I went back to the apartment to check.

The key to the apartment was obtained by Tao Ran from the criminal investigation team. When he opened the door, it was empty, with only a sofa and no home appliances. Many apartments in the imperial capital support short-term rental, which provided Mr. K with an opportunity. After collecting evidence, such as footprints and fingerprints, no matching object was found in the library, and there was no trace of life in the house, it was just a short-term stay. Hai Dongqing suddenly flew up and landed on the lamp overhead. When they jumped on the crystal lamps, the lamps swayed back and forth, and I was really worried that they would fall down with a "snap"!
Hai Dongqing finally flew down, with something in her mouth, Lian Haitang said, "It's the ashes of the talisman paper."

"It seems to be floating up." Tao Ran said, "The two little things are quite capable."

"Is there anyone around him who knows yin and yang?" I asked, "The wizard is dead, your brother is dead, and the head-down master has been dealt with by them. Is there anyone around?"

They cleaned up the living room, but the remaining bit of paper ash inspired our thinking, Lian Haitang thought about it: "Before he died, Master Jiang said that it was impossible, he was not real, what do you think about this sentence? "

I stared at the lamp above my head that was still shaking, and the events and clues that happened in the past suddenly gathered in my mind. ran out?"

"That's right, in the Ming Dynasty, it wasn't because of this incident that the two clans took some actions, which directly led to the current result," Lian Haitang said, "What's wrong?"

"I've always been curious about one thing." I said, "How much do you know about your father and mother?"

"Father married my mother. After giving birth to me, he put her under house arrest and killed her." Lian Haitang said, "Afterwards, he raised me as a destined witch. I lost my freedom and affection and became a tool."

"Your father married your mother, why?" I said, "Did they fall in love freely, or did they have a designated goal and marry deliberately? Has your father always had the current temperament?"

"What do you want to say?" Lian Haitang asked.

"I want to know whether your father has always been like this, or has his temperament changed suddenly and became what he is now." I said, "This is very important. Does anyone know about his life before he got married and had children?"

Lian Haitang was stunned suddenly, a suspicious look appeared on her always calm face: "No, no..."

Tao Ran looked at me, then at Lian Haitang, and seemed to understand something: "Lin Tianyi, could it be?"

Before I had time to explain, Lian Haitang raised her hand, and her frowning brows stretched out: "Lin Tianyi, you are really good. I am afraid that no one knows about my father's marriage and childbirth. The servants at home , people who took care of me began to appear after I was born. The oldest servant also came to our house in the year I was born, and died when I was more than ten years old. After that, she never appeared people who have lived before."

Tao Ran said: "So, no one knows about your father and mother's past, right?"

"Yes." Lian Haitang said: "From this point of view, father's life has also been cut in half. We only know what happened after he got married and had children, but we don't know anything about his life before he got married and had children!"
