The last quarter moon was so small that there was only a ray of eyebrows left. From time to time in the woods on both sides of the path, Ye Xiao’s cries came from time to time. The journey on this night is really frightening. I stood at the gate of the “Crescent Cemetery” and looked at my watch. It was already more than 10 o’clock in the evening. It was really exciting to come to the cemetery at this time.
The garden guard opened the door.
“Hello, Mr. Yamada, I am Nobuaki Ishihara, and I made an appointment in the morning.” I smiled and handed over a fake business card that was temporarily printed during the day. It was a local councillor.
“Yes, yes, I just didn’t expect you to be so late.” The old man took the business card and didn’t look at it carefully. “How can I help you?”
< br/>
“Oh, no need, I’ll be alone with Michiko.”
“Oh, Michiko is a good girl, young.” The old man sighed and turned back to the hut.
The Miura Michiko we said died of a heart attack six months ago. He was only 21 years old and was still in college. Actually I don’t know her, I came to her purely because of Mizutani Masako’s call.
I have an abnormal physique that is very easy to provoke evil spirits. However, Masako Mizutani is a famous onmyoji in Japan. He often teaches me and teaches me to solve problems. In order to express my gratitude, this She asked me to help, and I came right away. But she didn’t expect her so-called help was to come to Michiko’s cemetery in the middle of the night.
Modern Japanese usually carry out cremation, but there are also some conservative mountain people who will raise funds to buy a mountain top specifically for burial. Of course, it is sky-high. This is the case for Michiko.
It was the first time I went to the cemetery in the middle of the night. I always felt that there were dark shadows floating around all the way up the mountain. Michiko’s cemetery is on the shady side of the mountain, three or four miles away from the mountain gate. I walked for more than half an hour to reach it.
Mizutani said on the phone to meet here. I arrived, but I didn’t find anyone nearby. I must have arrived early. The wind was strong on the mountain, so I wrapped myself tightly and curled up beside the tombstone.
Suddenly, a hand stretched out from the ground and grabbed my foot “bang”. I was so frightened that I jumped up with a “wow”. At the same time, a black shadow suddenly jumped out from the ground and rushed towards me. I was so scared that I backed back again and again, but the black shadow turned his head and ran in the opposite direction. Go, disappear in the dense forest in a blink of an eye.
Just when I was in shock, there was a sound under the tombstone, and another hand was stretched out. The hand was delicate and tender, and it was extremely pale in the faint moonlight.
Between the electric light and flint, there was a line in my mind. The black shadow had a large palm just now, it was a man’s hand, and now it is Michiko! I was so scared that I ran away! Running far away, I heard a familiar voice saying: “Su Sang, Mr. Su, it’s me, Masako! “
It turned out to be Mizutani Masako-senior! I immediately braked to a halt and turned around to look. The woman crawled out from under the tombstone, curled up in the moonlight, who was it if it wasn’t Mizutani?< br>
I returned in a whisper, she giggled and said, “Su Sang is so timid! “
I scratched my head in embarrassment and did not answer.
Following her to the back of the tombstone, I took a flashlight and realized that it was actually here. There is a one-meter-square hole, and when I look inside, there are actually stairs paved with cement. Dare to believe that this is a tomb passage, and the corpse is probably transported in from here. The Japanese people first enter the coffin and then repair the grave. But the grave is repaired before the coffin.
There is a space of more than ten square meters more than two meters below the stairs. There is a coffin in the middle, one big and the other small, depending on the style and Chinese style. Almost, Mizutani said it was just an empty coffin, and then took a photo of the flashlight in his hand on the wall, and I vaguely saw a stone door
Mizutani opened the door and took me Entering the door, it twists and turns down a long way, and there is a new room. The coffin in this room is exactly the same as the one just now, except that there is a scent of sandalwood out of thin air.
Mizutani He smiled and said: “This sandalwood is to cover up the smell of the corpse.” I heard my stomach upset.
Mizutani pointed to the coffin lid and said, “Be mentally prepared. “(Uncle Ghost: http://www.guidaye.com/, please keep the reprint!)
I held my breath, and with my hands, I lifted the lid of the coffin. The incomprehensible female corpse immediately greeted people’s eyes. It was puzzling because her decayed way was really unreasonable-the limbs and torso were completely rotten, but the head was fresh and tender, like a girl with closed eyes and resting,
c1( );
“This is Ms. Miura Michiko. “Mizutani stretched out her hand and squeezed her chin. The corpse’s mouth opened under pressure. I was shocked. I thought it was a corpse, but when I saw Mizutani smiling and not moving, I craned my neck and looked in. It turned out that Michiko’s mouth There was a yellow note in it.
“I put it in. “Mizutani said, “Miss Michiko’s body was originally not decayed at all, but something in her mouth was stolen by the tomb robber just now. I eagerly wrote a talisman and stuffed it into her mouth, but I can barely guarantee it. Her head is not rotted. “
It suddenly dawned on me that the shadow was just a tomb thief. She took out the note, and Michiko’s head immediately lost water and dried up, mold turned rot, and asked in a blink of an eye. It’s the same as the body.
“What was the stolen thing? Preservative? “I immediately thought of the instant noodle seasoning.
Mizutani shook his head: “It should be a bead, brown. “In the Book of Zuo Xing Yin and Yang, it is called ‘Niwan’. “
Mizutani said that the mud pill is a kind of topaz, which can prevent corrosion and fix the soul of the dead.
I nodded as if I didn’t understand.” Did you let me come here for this thing? “
“Let’s go out first.” “Mizutani asked me as he exited the tomb passage, “Do you know what happened in Kyoto recently?” “
“You know, are you talking about serial murders in Qiaosi New Technology District?” “
Although there are dozens of companies in the Qiaosi New Technology Zone, there are only four people who have real local influence: Natsukawa Junichi, Musashi Ruhara, Miura Matsuaki and Abe Keno.
These four families are not only rich and powerful, they are also local councillors. This time the four are vying for the position of the local party leader.
Six months ago, Miura Matsuaki’s daughter, Michiko Miura, died of myocardial infarction. A month later, Keno Abe’s brother died of the same cause; then Junichi Natsukawa’s wife and Musashi Ruhara’s daughter also died of the same disease.
The relatives of the Big Four died of the same usually non-fatal disease within half a year, and everyone soon realized that this might be murder.
Just as all When people waited for the police to solve the case, they did not expect the murder to continue. The new deceased were Miura’s wife, Musashi’s wife, and Natsukawa’s father. The symptoms of all deaths were exactly the same as those in the first round. Only the Abe’s family was not dead. Individuals, but I’m afraid it’s a matter of time.
The four giants were initially suspicious of each other, but then they gradually realized that this was not an ordinary case. To make it clear, the police could not solve it. So, They began to seek help from some marginalized people, like monks and Taoists.
Thinking of this, I asked: “I wonder who of the four giants invited Senior Mizutani? “
Mizutani smiled: “Su Sang is really smart, it’s Mr. Xia Chuan.” “
According to Mizutani, about half a month ago, Junichi Xia Chuan came to visit in person and asked her to help solve the case. Mizutani heard about this early in the morning and felt strange in his heart, so he went straight He agreed and asked for an autopsy on the spot.
c2();
This request made Xia Chuan somewhat hesitant. Japan and China are about the same as the dead, if not. Moving tombs and opening ancestors’ tombs at will is to be scolded. Xia Chuan Junichi has a bright career, and he is worried that this matter will be given to others. Later, he thought of a compromise plan. Mizutani can do autopsy, but the coffin can not be seen Light, can’t get out of the grave. This is simply to let Shuigu be a tomb thief. Fortunately, Shuigu is not a thousand crosses, so he agreed.
That night, Shuigu dived into Shuiyue by night.The mountain enters the cemetery of the Xiachuan family from the back mountain according to the map given by Xiachuan.
Xia Chuan’s father and wife both died of heart disease. It is said that this is an ordinary disease. Although it is fatal, it is an ordinary corpse after death. But as soon as Shuigu opened the lid of the coffin, he found that the two bodies were obviously different from ordinary people. It is said that the two people died in less than half a year. The bodies will decay to varying degrees, but they should not be dehydrated and become semi-fossilized!
In order to understand what was going on, Mizutani simply entered the graves owned by the four major families.
The tomb owned by the four great families!
My scalp immediately became numb. There were more than a hundred tombs. This woman is absolutely abnormal!
But she came to at least a few conclusions: 1. Xia Chuan’s family did not have a special method of corpse preservation; 2. Only the corpses of six people who had recently died of heart disease were semi-fossil-shaped. All of them rot normally.
“No,” I quickly calculated mentally, “Didn’t seven of them die?”
At this point we are out of the tomb, Mizutani pointed to the photo of Michiko on the tombstone and said: “She is different. She is the only person who died of congenital heart disease. I found the source as soon as you came. This has basically confirmed my guess. Now I’m waiting to find the murderer.”
I looked at her confusedly, and she smiled enchantingly: “The Book of Left Traveling Yin and Yang says that it is nourished by the blood of the dead. , Take Niwan to solidify the spirit, more than a month, it can take human life, the symptoms are the same as the dead body-this is called’ghost cover’. The’less sick dead body’ is the person who died of illness in young people.”
No need to ask, Michiko is the “sick and dead body”, and the murderer’Gui Gai’ was raised with her blood.
Mizutani said that “Ghost Gai” is a kind of plant, which can transform into a human form when it matures, become a mature person close to a person, and bring death to a person. However, “Gui Gai” has a weakness, there is no pain.
“No pain means no touch. We secretly make a mark on him. He doesn’t know it, such as nailing a nail.” Mizutani smiled, “I was already at the tomb. The thief nailed a colorful nail on his body, and he didn’t find it.”
There must be a mastermind behind so many murders. It seems that Senior Mizutani wanted to use the tomb thief to find out the manipulation behind it. By.
“But do you know who the murderer is?”
Mizutani sneered, “I’m afraid the murderer is still among the four. In fact, I I’ve been suspicious of someone…but you have to confirm it for me.”
While we were talking, we had already reached the door of the cemetery, and I knocked on the door of the hut, “Old man Yamada, Did you sleep?”
“Not yet.” The old man hunched over and appeared in front of me with the key, “Mr. Ishihara, go slowly.” I subconsciously glanced behind me, Mizutani didn’t know when it was gone.
I nodded my head and thanked him. The moment I went out, I noticed that old man Yamada’s ankle was shining with a faint five-color light.
“Did I not tell you that’Gui Gai’ has the ability to clone?” Mizutani ghost appeared beside me likewise, “Your physique is really easy to attract aliens.”
I gave a wry smile. I was just a ghost bait. I helped her catch the “ghost cover”.
The next week, I helped her investigate and collect evidence, and finally identified the murderer as Abe Keno, her initial suspect.
This Abe family originated from the famous onmyoji Abe Haruaki in the Heian period. Takeo Abe got the “Ghost Gai” by chance. Soon, he was going to run for the local party leader, but the family had ancestral training and was not allowed to be an official for generations. Therefore, he had a dispute with his younger brother Abe Jiro. Took his life.
This instead reminded him to use “Gui Gai” as a weapon in politics. He wanted to blame the murder on the other three people, but he didn’t expect to be disrupted by Mizutani and me, and soon reported to the local police station.
The matter is finally over.
On this day, I turned my computer screen to thank my Mizutani Masako: “Baidu says that’Ghost Gai’ is refined’ginseng’, isn’t it?”
< br/>
Mizutani took a look, and suddenly smiled: “Chinese ginseng is called’ginseng’ in Japan, and’ginseng’ in Japan is called’carrot’ in China!”
< br/> I was stunned for a moment and laughed.
