"Magic?" I thought, Liao Mengfann's brain is really big. The Mekong City was located at the Southern Frontier and most of the Miao Family were there. Legend has it that the Miao race was the origin of the voodoo Gu technique. The Gu technique was guided by poisonous insects such as poisonous spiders, poisonous scorpions, poisonous centipedes, and other highly toxic insects. After cultivating for a long time with a mysterious type of medicinal herb, the person who used the Gu had a mysterious connection with these poisonous creatures. The Gu man could control these poisonous bugs with his will to attack other people without anyone knowing and quickly kill them.

There was a limit to the level of a Gu. The higher the level, the greater the strength. There were even some Gu people who had reached the legendary realm, and a louse on their body could instantly kill all living beings in a village. But I don't really believe that it's true, otherwise when we were fighting back then, a powerful Gu man casually walked out of the mountains and gave the Japanese a potion, would we still need to fight for eight years? It should be over in eight months, right?

Thinking about it here, I said to Liao Mengfann: "What you said does make some sense, but it is still very contradictory!"

I continued, "Maybe there really is a Gu, but you want to control a large group of spiders to kill a person, and in a very orderly manner at that? Is that possible? "

Liao Mengfann didn't refute my question. Ever since I returned from the Shanghe County, I discovered that she seemed to have changed into a different person. In the past, when she analyzed cases, she could always be calm and look at the situation objectively. However, ever since the case of the lotus root female corpse and Shanghe County had occurred, her mental state seemed to have changed greatly. She became more "woman", and it was easier for her to control her emotions.

I don't know exactly why she turned out like this, but I don't think she's in a position to run a case at all. The last time we were at the Shanghe County, she almost got into an accident. This time we came to such a strange place, I was really afraid that something might happen to her again. I patted Liao Mengfann's hands, and told her: "When we're dealing with this case, you have to listen to me!"

"Why?" Liao Mengfann looked at me with her big watery eyes, her face filled with suspicion.

I said, "No reason, it's just because my rank is one rank higher than yours. At the same time, I'm also the team leader for Task Force! "Heh!"

"Is this an order?" Liao Mengfann asked me curiously as she raised her hand to stroke her jet-black hair.

"Yes!" I resolutely said to her, "When the case is over, you can rest for a few days. You've been in a bad state recently!"

"Hehe, then you have to promise me one thing!" Liao Mengfann looked at me solemnly and said: "I will listen to you regarding this case. Once this case is exposed, if the Northface City case is not, I will have to join that case!"

"Tell me your reason!"

Liao Mengfann's face turned slightly sad and said to me, "My reason should also be because of you, right? Don't you want to crack the case? "

"Err …" At that time, Liao Mengfann's eyes looked very deep, and I vaguely remembered seeing that look in those eyes once when we were facing the major case of 12.1. She had reminded me to withdraw from the case at that time, and I remember I had cold sweat all over my body when I saw that look. But this time, I felt very close.

When the plane arrived at Mekong City, it was already nine in the morning. Although I slept for 4 hours on the plane, the fatigue in my body didn't disappear. Instead, it became even worse.

When we walked out of the airport, our colleagues from the Mekong City Police were already waiting for us at the intersection. The one who came to welcome us was the Deputy Chief of the local Public Security Bureau. After an introduction, we learned that the Deputy Chief's surname was Yan and his name was Yan Lihua.

I shook hands with Bureau Chief Yan briefly and followed them onto the bus, travel worn and worn out. The bus travels very quickly. On the way, Bureau Chief Yan briefly introduced the sequence of events of the case to us. The following is a brief summary of what happened after I organized the information.

The victim's name was Lee Jingyao, and at 27 years old, was a flat plane model. The Time of Death arrived at 11.09 a.m. on May 2, 2007. The Time of Death was temporarily found out through the description of the person who reported it, and was not confirmed by an autopsy.)

The cause of death was the bite of a large number of spiders. At that time, the landlord of the dead person heard Lee Jingyao scream miserably next door. At first he thought Lee Jingyao was doing some tricks in the house, but she didn't care. But after a few seconds, a 'pu tong' sound suddenly came out from Lee Jingyao's room. The sound was loud, and upon hearing the sound, the landlord rushed over to Lee Jingyao's room and knocked on the door non-stop.

After knocking on the door many times, Lee Jingyao did not respond. The landlord felt that something was wrong, and took out the spare key to the room, but when he opened the door, he saw that the room was already filled with spiders, and Lee Jingyao was completely covered by them. The landlord himself had also been bitten by the spider twice, but his life wasn't in danger right now and he was currently receiving treatment in the hospital.

Without a word, half an hour later, our group arrived at the Mekong City Public Security Bureau. The local police had vacated a room on the third floor of the police station for us to use as a temporary space, and all the information in the case was brought in before we got there.

Director Yan led the three of us into the office. He asked me, "Comrade Lu, do you want to hold a temporary meeting?"

I waved my hand. "We won't be opening the meeting, and the pressure from your office is quite great. We should save some time to study the case!" Furthermore, there are only three of us here, there's no need for us to hold this meeting! "

Ah!" Bureau Chief Yan was clearly a bit embarrassed. He coughed lightly and said, "So it's like that. If Comrade Lu has any requests, feel free to mention it!" Our Mekong City police will definitely cooperate with your work!

"Not yet!" Oh, yes! " I said to Director Yan, "I would like to see the landlord who reported the case, as well as the medical examiner who was in charge of the autopsy. Eh..." Then give us Task Force and a driver! After all, we are not familiar with this place! "

"Sure, no problem!" I'll call you guys to arrange it! "

With that, Chief Yan left the meeting room. The three of us gathered around a desk and looked at the goosebumps on the photos.

There were a total of 70 photos at the scene. All of them were taken by the giant spiders from every angle. Huge red spiders covered the roof, the sofa, the balcony, and even the paper basket. It could be said that the entire room had become a silken disk cave, and there were very few places where people could stand.

My scalp tingled. The picture I was holding was a close-up shot with a remote lens. The location of the photo was under the sofa in the room. Under the sofa, there was a man covered in spiders lying on the ground.

Countless spiders covered every part of her body, and around the sofa, I saw a large number of spiders with their heads pointed at the dead person. It was very likely that the spiders were trying to climb onto the dead person's body, but in that instant, they were all captured by the camera.

Looking at these large spiders, I shivered. This kind of spider is unusual for us. It is very big, and its full foot is about ten centimeters wide. I thought, just one of these big spiders would be enough to scare people, what's more, Lee Jingyao was bitten by countless of these big spiders, how much pain would she have before she died? What kind of hatred did the murderer have for her to use such an inhumane method?

"What do you think?" Liao Mengfann put down the picture in her hands and stared intently at me. I was a little taken aback, because I felt that those words should have been asked by me. It seems that this lass has really treated me as her leader.

I placed the photo on the table and said, "It's weird!"

"Oh?" Liao Mengfann pressed down on the tip of her nose with one hand, "Why do you still have such an opinion?"

I tapped my forehead and said, "Is it true that spiders kill people? "Or is it an illusion created by the murderer?"

"Are you saying that the murderer deliberately left these large spiders at the scene to confuse the police after killing them?" Liao Mengfann did not refute my argument, but she said, "This argument can be made, the Time of Death s that Bureau Chief Yan provided us were not found through an autopsy report. It's very possible!"

"There is another suspicious matter!" I continued, "The landlord told me that he had heard Lee Jingyao's scream. If she had seen so many spiders attacking her, why didn't she escape at the first possible moment? From what I understand, this Chilean Fire Rose is not that toxic. Even if she was bitten a few times, she would still have time to escape. "

"Little Wei!" I said to Wei Shijie who was pressing his keyboard non-stop, "Hurry up and check, this Chilean Fire Rose's poison level, I need the truest data!"

"Good …" "Fine!" Wei Shijie sighed helplessly, and I then continued to speak with Liao Mengfann: "The landlord only heard a scream, which also means that after Lee Jingyao let out that scream, she died, or perhaps she fainted, but there's something abnormal here!"

I continued, "The first choice a person has when encountering something they fear is always to escape, but look at the place where she died. It's under the sofa. Isn't that weird?"

Liao Mengfann looked at the photo, and after a moment of silence, she said to me, "She shouldn't have died under the sofa!"

You said it before, when a person encounters something that they fear, their first choice is to escape, her most reasonable place of death should be three. The first is at the door, she was bitten to death before she could even open the door, the second is at the corner of the room, the dead person was forced to the point of no return by the large number of spiders, and the third is inside the closet. The dead person originally wanted to hide, but there were too many spiders, so when she closed the door, she was bitten to death! After saying all that, Liao Mengfann deliberately paused. She stared at my face and asked me: "Am I right?"

"Err …" I nodded speechlessly. "Your thoughts are the same as mine!"

It was different!

Just then, Liao Mengfann shook her head at me, "I still agree that the deceased was bitten to death by a spider, but I don't understand the specific reason! What do we do next? "

Looking at the photos on the table, I felt that we were wasting our time here. I was curious about the scene of death, and I wanted to go there at once to see where the swarm of spiders had come from. What kind of woman was this Lee Jingyao exactly? What was her social relationship like?

Sigh!

I sighed heavily. The local police were right. Can't you investigate the social relations of the deceased? Looking at the crime scene photos on the table, I was speechless.

I wondered if the local police, when they were taking pictures of the scene, had actually gone to see if the victim was still alive. If she was alive, it was a sad case.

I looked at the time. It has already been two hours since we reached the Mekong City, and our driver still hasn't come. Don't tell me the local police are going to let us go? I picked up the phone and called Director Yan. He told me that the driver would be here soon, so he told us to wait.
