Creak …
As Zhao Yu opened a big wardrobe in the east wing, everyone was shocked to see that there was a staircase that extended downwards, all the way to the dark underground!
"No way!" Zhang Ling's eyes widened. "There's a secret room here? This … "He looked at Zhao Yu in surprise." How did you know? "
Of course, Zhao Yu saw it through the Invisible Fluoroscopic Device.
Before he entered the room, he found that the door was not locked. He was worried that there might be some kind of trap in the room, so he not only used a detector, but also the Invisible Fluoroscopic Device.
So, he had long discovered that there was a secret space under the east wing, and the area was not small.
The secret room was right under his yard, so even if someone built a house outside, it would not be affected.
"Shh …"
Zhao Yu naturally could not explain Zhang Ling's question to him, so he gestured for him to keep quiet and pointed at the secret passage under his feet.
He was obviously warning him that the murderer might be down there, so he should keep quiet!
Zhang Ling and Ran Tao quickly took out their pistols, as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
However, they were still one step too late. Zhao Yu did not take a weapon, but he was the first to enter the big wardrobe and the secret room.
"Don't …"
Zhang Ling was worried that something might happen to Zhao Yu, so she immediately followed him with Ran Tao.
The secret room was located underground. Zhao Yu entered it in a few steps, and at the same time, he turned on the flashlight on his phone.
As a result, when he looked into the depths of the secret chamber, his eyes suddenly widened!
Even though he had mentally prepared himself beforehand, he still felt great shock and horror when he saw the horrifying scene before him!!
There was an antique desk in front of the secret room, and a man in ragged clothes, with messy hair and a dirty face, was sitting in front of the desk, motionless!
The man's attire was like that of a dirty beggar, or a poor ghost in a game. It was exactly the same as the last ghost recorded in the Ghost King Record!
Seeing this scene, it meant that the last case of the Ghost King Case had happened!
However, unlike the previous cases, the last victim was most likely the murderer himself!
Is he really dead?
Zhao Yu forced himself to calm down and shone the flashlight on the dead man's body. The dead man's body was stiff and his face was distorted. He was motionless, just like the other victims in the Ghost King Case.
"Damn it!"
Zhao Yu cursed under his breath and looked at his watch. It was 12: 03 am, just past midnight.
Logically speaking, if he committed suicide at 12 o 'clock, then he should still be breathing. Could it be that … he didn't even wait until 12 o' clock, or … he was already dead?
* Pa … *
With a crisp sound, Ran Tao turned on the lights in the basement, and it was instantly bright.
The police officers were probably mentally prepared. Even though they saw the gruesome corpse, none of them cried out in alarm. Instead, they followed the rules and investigated the scene thoroughly, just in case there was still any danger.
Zhao Yu turned off the flashlight and looked at the deceased again. He was surprised to see that on the desk in front of the deceased, there was a piece of Xuan paper for calligraphy. On the Xuan paper, there was a line of calligraphy written with a brush.
"I don't believe that a dead person can become a ghost, but I believe in the reincarnation of the ghost path. All living things have the nature of ghosts. Good and evil will eventually be determined! "
Twenty-four brush words were written on the paper. Together with the death scene in front of them, it was naturally creepy and creepy.
"Ghost … Ghost reincarnation …" Zhang Ling's face was pale and she said shakily, "Aren't these words … from the preface of the Ghost King Log?"
"Mm?" Then, Zhao Yu suddenly realized something. He immediately extended his hand and moved the Xuan paper aside. Under the Xuan paper, there was an ancient book!
"Ah?!"
This time, everyone couldn't help but exclaim. They saw that on the cover of the ancient book, there were the words "Ghost King Log" written in traditional Chinese characters!
"This …" Zhang Ling's eyes widened. "There really is a Ghost King Log here!"
Zhao Yu didn't think too much about it. He extended his hand again and opened the Ghost King Log. In the end, he only flipped through one page, and he was shocked.
This Ghost King Record was actually hand-copied. Moreover, on the title page, there was an eye-catching "Tao" character!
"It can't be?!" Zhang Ling felt that she was almost out of breath. "This … This book, it can't be Tao Yulan's, right?!"
"When Tao Yulan was arrested," Zhao Yu said, "only his Ghost King Log was missing. Could it be …"
Then, Zhao Yu turned his gaze to the dead man in front of him.
The dead man's face was hideous, but it could still be seen that he was a young man with average looks and wasn't very tall.
Looking at his state of death, it was indeed the same as the other victims of the Ghost King Case. However, this man was the one who sat the most upright among all the victims.
Although his face was hideous and twisted, it still gave people a sense of calmness and determination.
And …
Zhao Yu noticed something and quickly turned on the flashlight, shining it at the feet of the dead man.
In the end, he quickly saw a syringe on the ground. There was still a small amount of white liquid in the syringe …
"This is …" Zhang Ling also saw the syringe and immediately said to Zhao Yu, "This should be the syringe containing tetramine, right?"
"The first four victims didn't appear," Zhao Yu said, staring at the syringe. "But it appeared here, which means …"
"It really was a suicide!" Zhang Ling nodded. "It seems that you guessed it right. The murderer really thought that he was the last ghost! I really didn't expect it to be like this! "
"Team Leader," Ran Tao waved at Zhao Yu and said, "Come over here and take a look at this!"
It turned out that the underground secret room wasn't completely transparent. There were some small partitions on the east side, which separated the secret room into two small suites.
At that moment, Ran Tao was standing at the door of the first suite, waving at Zhao Yu.
Zhao Yu turned off his phone again, walked up to Ran Tao, and looked into the suite.
"Wow …"
Zhao Yu couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. He saw that the walls of the suite were densely covered with photos and some handwritten information. The walls of the room were filled with them.
In the photos closest to Zhao Yu, he could see Niu Jinkui and Shen Wenbin. On the right side, there were Tao Yan and Lei Feiyi.
The photos were obviously taken secretly. It could be seen that the photographer had secretly followed these people and investigated them in detail.
Further down, there were photos of Mi Rou and the victims themselves. There were even photos of them together!
It could be seen that the fifth victim had a close relationship with Mi Rou.
"Captain," a police officer, who had just entered the secret room, shouted to Zhang Ling, "We found an electric ladder in the yard, and we also found an electronic device that can short-circuit the electricity on the shelf in the west room …"
"Captain," a police officer on the other side of the basement said, "I found two large bags of powdery substances. Judging from the logo, it should be tetramine!"
"Captain," another police officer said, "I found a lot of cosmetics, which are similar to the ones used on the faces of the victims in the Ghost King Case …"
