Chapter 25 The Mortuary Cabinet
Qi Yi subconsciously put his hand into his pocket. He had taken a screwdriver with him since last night.
To be more precise, this person was provoking him.
When he is nervous, Qi Yi will speed up his movements, and now his steps are much faster. Lao Chi speeds up to catch up, and Qi Yi changes the topic: "Didn't you just ask what weird thing is related to those two monitoring failures? Just in one
An hour ago, I experienced an extreme cooling experience."
Lao Chi was confused: "What is the extreme cooling? What's going on?"
Qi Yi told him what had happened, and by the time he finished speaking, they had returned to the office.
The air-conditioning has not dissipated yet, the indoor temperature has just returned to the early twenties, and the humidity is extremely high. Not only is the surface of the body cold, but there is a chill coming from the seams in the bones, which makes Lao Chi feel the feeling of being in the underworld.
"It's too cold." Lao Chi rubbed his forearms: "The temperature in the room suddenly dropped to 13 degrees before? That's too exaggerated. You're not really crazy, are you?"
Qi Yi opened the window and leaned against it: "It's obvious that someone is pretending to be a ghost. What's wrong?"
Lao Chi turned his back on guests and sat on Qi Yi's chair. In fact, this thought had been lingering in his mind for a long time. Just thinking about it made him shudder: "Do you think there is a possibility that they do these things just because they want to?"
Are your psychological defenses breaking down bit by bit? Maybe they are hiding in the dark, wanting to see when you collapse?"
Qi Yi pursed his lips. From the time the counterfeit appeared to now, maybe it was.
Their purpose will never be that simple, but for now, they have succeeded.
Seeing that Qi Yi didn't speak, Lao Chi laughed and continued: "It feels like the person behind you has a lot of resentment towards you and is very capable. Do you really have no suspicion?"
"No," Qi Yi shook his head.
Lao Chi added: "Why don't you go and ask for an amulet?
Qi Yi's fingers were rubbing the screwdriver constantly, his mind was running at high speed, and he joked casually: "Do you want to invite another goddess to come over and perform rituals?"
Woo woo woo...
Qi Yi was only halfway through his words when he suddenly looked up at the wind inlet fence. His eyes widened suddenly and he held the screwdriver tightly in his hand: "What's the sound?"
Lao Chi was startled by Qi Yi and then raised his head and stared at the grille.
The two looked at each other quietly for a long time, but didn't hear any movement.
Lao Chi gradually lost his patience and turned to look at Qi Yi: "There is no sound. Did you hear it wrong?"
"No," Qi Yi stared at the grille motionless: "There is just a strange sound, like... the sound of wind passing through the corridor?"
"What's so strange about the sound of the wind?" Lao Chi relaxed completely: "Don't be so arrogant, you're almost making me nervous."
Qi Yi still felt something was wrong: "I have been working for a long time, and I have never heard such obvious wind noise in the pipes, even on windy days."
Lao Chi disagreed: "Didn't you say that something might have entered the pipe? Maybe the structure inside was damaged, or there was something extra? Besides, the air vents have been removed, and the air tightness must be much worse than before.
It’s understandable if you make noise.”
His explanation made sense, so Qi Yi didn't say anything more.
Is it just true?
"The inspection has been reported to the authorities. Just wait until the higher authorities send someone to check. Don't worry so much. If you feel you can't stay any longer, you can just go to my office."
"Forget it." Qi Yi refused without thinking. Lao Chi didn't have his own office either. He shared a room with two people. Qi Yi was not familiar with the other person and felt uncomfortable staying there.
So it was usually Lao Chi who came to see Qi Yi. Qi Yi rarely went to see Lao Chi, and even if he did, he wouldn't stay long.
Lao Chi knew Qi Yi's temperament and didn't force him: "Okay, what should we do next?"
"Go to the laboratory at two o'clock to get the toxicology test report to see if the crow died of poisoning. By the way, didn't you say you knew the researcher at the Physical Evidence Identification Center and sent the feathers over for me?"
"Of course." Lao Chi said, "He should be on lunch break. I'll call later to see if the results are out."
Qi Yi nodded and said yes.
Lao Chi pointed to the sofa next to him: "I mean, don't you want to take a nap?"
Qi Yi felt a chill when he thought of two grown men sleeping next to each other on the sofa: "Chou refuses."
Lao Chi was angry: "Get the hell out of here!"
"You go to sleep, I'll go take a look in the refrigerator."
"Isn't it, so hard work?" Lao Chi couldn't understand: "There is no key clue at all, what can you do even if you can see the flowers?"
"At least my suspicion of committing the crime can be completely eliminated and I won't be so passive."
"What did you find?"
"No, I just want to find flaws," Qi Yi said: "For example, the refrigerator room was cleaned clean, but my fingerprints were left behind. This is very strange. If it can be proven that the fingerprints were not left by me, but by
Using fingerprint film, transparent glue and other things to leave behind can further prove that I was framed."
Lao Chi sat up from his chair: "Do it, do it immediately! What should we do?"
"You can't do it."
"Oh. Then I'll take a nap for a while. If you need anything, call me."
With a hum, Qi Yi stopped paying attention to him and walked to the cold room alone.
Inevitably, the cold room also cast a gloomy color in his eyes, but fortunately he was too familiar with it, and Qi Yi quickly regained a sense of control over his life, and his hairy feeling was easily suppressed.
After Gao Huicheng's body came back, the corpse cabinet was changed. No one had touched the original grid, and the three fingerprints were still well left on the surface of the grid, making it easier for Qi Yi to investigate.
He quickly got into work mode, turned on the colored flashlight, found the best illumination angle, fixed the flashlight with a tool, and squatted down to observe the fingerprints, trying to find flaws in these fingerprints.
But this was not easy. Qi Yi didn't have high hopes and just took a chance.
Of course, there are flaws - basically, forensic doctors wear gloves the whole time when opening and closing the corpse cabinet. Logically speaking, it is impossible to leave fingerprints. Plus Qi Yi's own alibi, it can be logically concluded that
These three fingerprints are purely fake.
It's just that handling cases is not just based on logic. Qi Yi also hopes to find irrefutable evidence, so he investigates very seriously. He didn't stand up to rest until his legs went numb. After resting, he squatted down and continued to stare.
He was so absorbed that he didn't know that while he was concentrating, the corpse cabinet on top of his head quietly opened.
The corpse cabinet was like a small coffin. It slid open nearly half a meter before stopping and hanging above Qi Yi's head.
Soon Qi Yi's feet became numb again. He stood up again, and then...
Boom!
With a loud noise, Qi Yi instantly squatted down and held his head, his facial features were distorted, and tears filled his eyes uncontrollably.
He touched his head and put it in front of his eyes. Fortunately, there was no blood. He gasped and looked up.
Seeing the corpse cabinet hanging above his head, Qi Yi cursed. He didn't react until he was halfway through the curse. He sat down on the ground. He opened his mouth, but couldn't make a sound. He could only kick his legs and step back to keep himself away from the corpse cabinet.
