a zombie haunts me

Chapter 240

Fortunately, the roar of the tractor drowned out my voice, and the driver did not hear what we were saying.

In the next second, Bai Chenxu didn't hesitate any longer, and directly broke Jiujiugong's palm with force.

However, when the eyes of the three of us fell on his palm, we were all stunned.

There are only a few white hairs in Jiujigong's hands, which don't look like human hair, but they don't look like animal hair. What are they?

"White fibers..."

I muttered in a low voice, thinking in my heart, maybe it's because there is this kind of white fiber on the clothes the other party is wearing?
"Grandma, have you seen what the murderer looks like?"

I asked grandma in a low voice, thinking that even if she didn't see it, she should know some clues.

However, grandma was overly frightened, and it took her a long time to react. After a moment of contemplation, she said to me: "I didn't see the murderer. When I found you nineteen, he had already fallen to the ground, but..."

"But what?"

Both Bai Chenxu and I seemed a little nervous and hurriedly asked.

"I was too worried about your nineteenth son at the time, so I didn't pay attention to look carefully. It seemed that there was a black shadow flashing past..."

Grandma's face was very solemn, as if she was trying to remember something.

However, after a long time, grandma still couldn't remember the appearance of the murderer, so she just shook her head heavily.

"It's okay, grandma, it doesn't matter if you didn't remember it, at least we have a clue now, don't we?"

I comforted grandma in a low voice, but she was still in a daze in her current state, and I didn't know if the death of the nineteenth prince had hit her too hard.

However, Bai Chenxu's current appearance is still very decadent, as if he has aged ten years in just a few hours.

I don't know when it started, a layer of cold sweat has condensed on my body.

I gently wiped the cold sweat off my forehead with my hand, and then said to Bai Chenxu, "I always feel that this white fiber must be the most representative thing on the murderer's body. What could it be?"

……

The body of Shijiugong was sent to the funeral parlor, and the police began to take over the investigation of this murder case. My grandma, Bai Chenxu and I took notes at the police station until very late. When we came out, the three of us were almost exhausted.

However, when we were about to leave the gate of the police station, we heard a piece of news unexpectedly.

That is, the white fiber in the hands of the nineteenth male was tested and proved to be a chemical fiber-nylon!
So, we are in trouble again. Nylon is used too widely. It may be clothes or accessories on the murderer, or it may be a murder weapon such as nylon rope used by the murderer.

All in all, it is too difficult to find the murderer from this clue.

"Little Pepper, you can go back with Grandma Lan first, I want to go to the Bingyi Hall again."

Bai Chenxu stopped in frustration. Under the streetlight, I could vaguely see the green stubble on his chin.

After a while, I nodded, the heaviness in my heart can no longer be described in words.

It seems that after the death of the nineteenth prince, Bai Chenxu seemed to be a different person. His silence and melancholy made me feel like a stick in my throat.

"You wait, I will accompany you to the ice funeral hall!"

After I finished speaking, I didn't know where it was safe, so I had to take my grandma with me and arrange for my grandma to have a cup of tea in a 24-hour teahouse near the Bingyi Hall.

Bai Chenxu and I went straight to the ice funeral hall, because it was too late, the ice funeral hall had closed the door, and there seemed to be icy cold air seeping through the tall iron gate, which made me shiver.

"Little Pepper, you'd better go back, the ice ceremonial hall is closed, I plan to simply climb the wall."

I looked at the tall iron gate, and then at the high wall next to the iron gate. To be honest, I really don't have the ability to climb over the wall and get in.

But at this moment, the uncle at the door seemed to have heard our voices, and suddenly walked to the door.

Through an iron gate that was not closed very tightly, I saw the face of the gatekeeper and hurriedly hid behind Bai Chenxu in fright.

"who is it?"

Bai Chenxu and I became inexplicably nervous about what the janitor said. After a while, I whispered to Bai Chenxu: "Since we've all been discovered, why don't we..."

Before he finished speaking, he heard the sound of the janitor opening the iron door with a key.

After a while, the iron door opened with a "squeak". I frowned slightly, but found that, except for the room where the gatekeeper lived, the lights were still on, and the rest of the place was almost completely dark, especially the room where the doorman lived. It's a morgue, gloomy and terrifying.

"Who are you and what are you doing here?"

The old man shone a flashlight on our faces and said very bluntly.

My eyes were dazzled by the flashlight, and I hurriedly blocked the light with my hands.

Bai Chenxu lowered his voice and said to the gatekeeper: "Our relative was sent here today, and I still have something to say to him, please do me a favor, let us go in and have a look."

"Go, go, come back tomorrow if there is something to do, I'm going to sleep."

Although the old man looks weak, he has a strong temper.

Bai Chenxu and I had a closed door, and it seemed that he was about to lock the door. In desperation, I took out 100 yuan from my pocket and put it in the uncle's hand.

"Master, please accommodate me a little bit. We'll just go in for a while, and it won't take up too much of your time."

Unexpectedly, the uncle suddenly became hesitant. After a while, he said to us: "Don't delay too long."

After speaking, he led us to the morgue.

Through a thick door, I seem to be able to smell a pungent smell of formalin.

The old man slowly opened the door, and then whispered to me: "It's late at night, aren't you afraid?"

At that moment, I felt a chill rushing towards my face, and the blood in my whole body seemed to stagnate for a moment.

How could it be possible not to be afraid, but sometimes it seems that the sadness is too much, so there is no time to think about these issues at all.

In my impression, it seems that I have come to the morgue for the second time. When I came last time, many unexpected things happened to me. Unexpectedly, when I set foot in this place again, my heart still seemed a little anxious.

"He is my master and my dearest person, how could I be afraid!"

Bai Chenxu said in a low voice, but he was right, Shijiu Gong was a person with outstanding Taoism, I think, even if he passed away, those ghosts should still be afraid of him.

The old man didn't ask any more questions, but just told us: "The ones delivered today are all in Room No. [-]. After you go in, remember not to touch them indiscriminately, so as not to cause trouble to your upper body."

Both Bai Chenxu and I nodded, without hesitation, we walked in with firm steps.

The more I walked in, the more horribly cold I felt inside. Not only that, I could clearly feel the cold wind whizzing through my neck.

I couldn't help shrinking in, covering my clothes even tighter.

The sound of our footsteps was very clear in the quiet corridor. It seemed that the sound of our footsteps had been pressed with the volume up button, infinitely amplified in my ears...

Swallowing my saliva, I tried my best to keep myself calm, but when I looked up, I realized that under the dim light, there were strings of ice cones hanging on the vent, as if I was frozen in a flash .

Soon, I found the house number of the room, and counted softly: "One... two... three..."

But when I counted to seven, I walked forward, and the number on the door jumped directly to nine.

Bai Chenxu and I stopped at the same time, our minds suddenly became empty.

I'm sure I didn't misread it, let alone counted it wrong, but for no reason, there was one room missing, and the missing room turned out to be the room number that the old janitor told us just now!
I took a deep breath, the blood in my whole body was like boiling water, rushing to the top of my head, after a while, Bai Chenxu and I stood in the same place in a daze.

"Did the old man deliberately play a prank just now, or is there really no such room..."

I asked in a low voice, my voice seemed a little lacking in confidence.

But at this moment, Bai Chenxu suddenly pointed to the door on the other side and said, "Here!"

I turned my head and looked, only to find that on a dilapidated door, the house number had already been rusted, but it was vaguely recognizable that it was indeed number eight.

My hanging heart finally fell to the ground, but, through a dilapidated door, I felt the air-conditioning inside blowing on my body, making me shiver with cold.

"Let's go in quickly, there is not much time."

As Bai Chenxu said, he pushed open the dilapidated door, but just after the door was pushed open, I sensed something was wrong.

A thick layer of frost condensed on the walls of the room, and the whole room looked like a huge freezer, and inside the freezer were cold corpses.

It's just that the positions of those corpses are too strange. Except for one bed which is placed alone, the other corpses are almost piled up on a big bed connected together.

"Master..."

Bai Chenxu could tell at a glance that the person lying on the bed alone was Jiujiu Gong.

At this moment, the blood on Nineteenth Prince's body has been washed away, but the hole in his clothes that was pierced by a sharp knife is still very clearly presented in front of us.

The police did not say what the fatal weapon was, but I always felt that it must not be an ordinary sword.

In the next second, Bai Chenxu was crying and took Jiu Gong's hand. I saw Shi Jiu Gong's cold and stiff fingers, still maintaining the posture of clenching his fist.

The tip of the nose suddenly became sour. During the day, Shijiugong was fine. At night, what we saw was his cold corpse.

I patted Bai Chenxu's back lightly, opened my mouth, and was about to comfort him, but at this moment, a strange wind blew past, crawling across my cheeks like dense worms...
