With a surprised look on my face, I turned around and asked Lao Yang.
"Yes, strangled,"
Lao Yang said, pulling out the photo from the bottom of the autopsy report, "Look at this, this is a photo of the deceased. Look at the bruises on the neck, the pupils, the tongue, the strangulation marks, it's obvious He was strangled to death with a wire. However, we collected the surveillance video from the scene of the incident. The video showed that no one entered the ward at all, not even his nephew. A living person was given to someone for no reason. Strangling to death, do you think this is evil?"
"Are you sure no one really came in that day?" I asked him with a slight frown. When Lao Yang heard this, he quickly waved his hand: "Tsk, why are you lying to me? Because this matter is quite special. There are two people installed in that person's house. The cameras, one in the light and the other in the dark, were watched 24 hours a day. After the incident, I even specially adjusted the video inside and watched it frame by frame. It was definitely not a fake."
"Can you trust those people?" Seeing the certainty of his words, I despised him from the bottom of my heart. The last time I met the little traitor, I was very suspicious of this old boy's vision.
He saw what I meant and felt a little embarrassed. He touched his nose and groaned, and then said: "There will be no problem, don't worry,"
"Oh, did you bring the video? Let me take a look," I said, rummaging through the envelope. When Lao Yang saw it, he took off a small device directly from the key on his waist and pushed it with his thumb. , the USB interface popped up immediately: "The video is inside, but this is confidential information, so try not to let others know,"
"Well, what do you want me to do?" I asked, holding the USB flash drive.
"I just want to know how this person died. To be honest with you, I now suspect that it was the white-browed old man who has never been arrested who wants to kill people with evil methods. If this is true, it will be troublesome. We have it now. There are several people involved in the case, but many things about Mao Xianfang have not been investigated clearly. If these people are dead, then a lot of things will become unproven, you know what I mean,"
"Understood," I said, nodding.
"Oh, by the way, next time I call you, don't hang up. We are doing big things, so... don't worry. If you have any clues, just give me a call. I'll Now we are pursuing this case with them, working 24 hours a day. Oh, I almost forgot, the two ancient corpses have not been found yet, and I don’t know where they hid them. You have to be careful, too. Especially Ding Ling, if Mao Xianfang knew about your affairs, he would definitely not let her go," Lao Yang said, patted me on the shoulder and left.
After hearing this, I couldn't help but feel my heart sink. I closed the door and walked back. Ding Ling was wearing an apron and cooking.
I was also hungry, my mouth watered even though I was so far away, and my stomach growled, but I didn’t dare to delay. I opened the newly bought laptop, plugged in the USB cable, and quickly played out the video inside. .
Lao Yang is also very serious about his work. When I saw it, the video was divided into 48 parts, each part was about thirty minutes, complete from front to back, two cameras, a total of 12 hours.
After finding the most critical section, I dragged my chin and watched carefully. But monitoring this kind of thing has always been very boring. Even if I play it quickly, the whole picture still stops there as if it is stuck. The light and dark changes of the light make the picture appear. It was a state of constant shaking. When the progress bar reached about the 20th mark, the guy lying on the bed like a dead man on the screen jerked violently.
I adjusted the speed to normal, but his movements were still very intense. The last time I saw this man, he had been in a state of coma. To be honest, I couldn't believe that the dying guy could actually do this. Such a big move.
He twitched, covering his neck, and then struggled as if he was being strangled by a rope. He amplified the sound, and there was the sound of the wire bed scraping against the ground. The man was mumbling something. , but I couldn't tell at all. This process only lasted less than a minute. After a few flops, his body became as soft as mud and fell out of the bed, standing upright with his head tilted.
Afterwards, several people hurriedly ran over to rescue them. The bald doctor was also there, and there seemed to be a few policemen inside. They repeated the video several times. I frowned and started looking for images captured by another camera. , this camera is very close to the person, and is clearer than the one I saw just now. From the perspective of the picture, it should be hidden on a cabinet beside the patient's bedside.
The process here was exactly the same as what was shown on the other camera. The difference was that this time I saw his tongue sticking out and his extremely distorted face. Slowing down the speed, I even saw the narrow and sharp The process of showing a trace of strangulation...
Like Lao Yang said, I also checked the above picture frame by frame. Soon, several screenshots came out. From the above, it can be clearly analyzed that the sudden strangulation marks were definitely not forcibly added by external force. It went up because the man kept picking at his neck, but the marks on it were not affected at all.
What's going on?
Comparing the two videos repeatedly, I am a little confused. Judging from the situation in front of me, this person was definitely killed by someone using evil methods. But as far as I know, whether it is a straw man method or a paper man method, They are all vicious spells that take a long time to curse someone to death.
Fortunately, it is difficult to find traces of this method. Even if the person is cursed to death, he will not show particularly obvious characteristics of being victimized. Its principle is to "trap the soul", which is the same as the situation when Black and White Wuchang takes people away. , so in this case, the forensic autopsy results will usually conclude with a "normal death".
In the past, wealthy businessmen and women who were getting divorced and did not want to divide their property liked to hire someone to do this. However, the disadvantage of this method is that it takes a long time, usually three to five to ten days. Even if it is done by a master with profound magic power, one Weeks are also required, and the person who is cursed to death by the straw man method enjoys a gradual process. The three souls and seven souls are taken away one by one, but this is different. It is obvious that this kid was forcibly strangled. Dead.
Could it be that he was bewitched by a spell similar to the wooden sign in the yard, and someone made him and a straw man "spiritual" together.
In principle, this matter can be explained, because the thirty-six straw straws and the wooden signs hanging in the small pavilion are connected with each other, and the harm of one party will be passed on to the other to a certain extent. On the one hand, so you can always see some classic scenes of "needle-pricking straw men" in those "non-mainstream" TV movies.
