My girlfriend died in the past

Chapter 238 Investigation

Chapter 238 Investigation
It’s a sunny day today, and Zhuang Xiao’s M9 is running wildly on the road, racing against time.

At 8:33, he arrived at the abandoned village.

He drove all the way to the two red-painted iron gates of the chicken farm and stopped.

After getting off the car, he looked around and frowned, "Who called the police?"

"Yesterday" he came in the middle of the night, and there were police cars blocking the road and setting up cordoned off outside the village, and there were police officers all the way.

It was only when he "went back in time" today that he discovered the problem.

It is daytime now and the surroundings are in full view.

This village is already remote, and the villagers had moved away long ago. Even the cemetery had to be relocated at the expense of Shu Mingyu.

That is to say, under normal circumstances, no one would come to this place.

This is evidenced by the weeds growing around it.

Zhuang Xiao’s abandoned chicken farm is at the innermost part of the village, and you even have to walk a short dirt road to get to it.

He had forgotten about it because it had been so long, and only now did he realize that the replaced iron door was locked!

Moreover, the basement was also closed, and the warehouse was at the innermost part of the chicken farm.

So how did the police find the body?
He didn't ask Dong Weirui "yesterday" and Dong Weirui didn't say anything.

I guess the reason was that they were afraid that he would be involved in the case, so they didn't tell him.

"So it was a police patrol? Impossible."

This place is very tricky, it is exactly the border between the urban area and the county town, and there are not many villages around.

Strictly speaking, this is an alternative "no man's land".

This is not their jurisdiction, so why would the police patrol here for no reason?

Otherwise, when Liu Lang and his four friends wanted to kidnap Shu Die, they would have deliberately chosen this place.

Others didn't dare to say, but given Shen Xing's personality, he must have checked everywhere before deciding that this place was the most suitable.

"So, someone must have called the police!"

So who called the police?
Most people wouldn't go to a place like this.

When he came here, he didn't see anyone here except the police.

Did he leave without permission after calling the police?
Or will they wait until they are investigated here and found to have no suspicion before letting them go?
Zhuang Xiao didn’t know.

He went forward to check the door lock and found no signs that the lock on the iron door had been opened.

This means that at least no one has entered yet.

After all, the surrounding walls are covered with broken glass.

Originally he wanted to have electricity, and money was not a problem.

But firstly, it is troublesome to maintain. Secondly, since someone was electrocuted by the electrified barbed wire on the wall and an accident occurred, it seems that it is no longer allowed to put up barbed wire privately.

Zhuang Xiao unlocked the door and walked in, carefully observing his surroundings.

There were no signs of outsiders either on the ground or in the surrounding weeds.

At least not in the short term.

He reached the warehouse and went inside.

The warehouse has been tidied up now and is completely empty with nothing inside. Only the speakers and cameras hanging high around it still have some presence.

Zhuang Xiao deliberately raised his head and looked around. All the high windows in the warehouse were closed at the moment, and were locked from the inside.

The walls were also very smooth, and without a ladder, it would be difficult to use the leverage to open the window from the inside.

Not to mention from the outside, unless all the glass is smashed.

But Zhuang Xiao had replaced all these windows with tempered glass, so it would be difficult to break them open from the outside.

He looked at his watch and it was 8:53 am.

Logically speaking, at this point in time, the body should have already started to burn.

So. The body is in the basement?

Zhuang Xiao left the warehouse and hesitated for a moment, without opening the entrance to the basement.

He left the chicken farm first and then found a golf club in the trunk of the SUV.

This golf club is made of alloy and is quite expensive. It was a birthday gift that Shu Mingyu mailed to him on New Year's Day. But for Zhuang Xiao, the greater value of this thing is that it is strong and durable.

If the protagonist in The Last of Us 2 had been killed with this golf club, he would have died faster.
He shook his hands. Well, the weight, center of gravity and grip of this golf club were all great.

So Zhuang Xiao closed the trunk, took out a tactical flashlight, and then entered the chicken farm again.

When he arrived at the basement, he opened the entrance to the basement, turned on the flashlight, and went down carefully.

"Strange. There isn't one?"

He shone his flashlight around. Everything in the basement had been cleared out long ago. All that was left was a row of tables against the wall, the surveillance equipment on them, and various wires.

This also further proves that this should not be the first scene, otherwise with the flames burning, the lines could not be fine, and there is no reason why the computer could still be turned on.

Zhuang Xiao saw that there was nothing there, so he turned on the light.

Originally, he didn't turn on the light in order to prevent the people below from getting used to the sudden strong brightness of the flashlight.

Now that there is no one here, we can open it.

After turning on the lights, the basement, which is not very big to begin with, is clearly visible.

"So, the 'channels' in various places are opened at the same time?"

He raised his wrist to check the time again.

It's 9 o'clock in the morning.

"That is to say, at least at 4 a.m. on April 1, the 'channel' had not been opened."

Is this also the reason why things happen in the afternoon?

The earliest abnormality came from the police discovering a body.

Now Zhuang Xiao speculates that someone “involved” called the police.

It could be the murderer, or it could be another Shudie.

The earliest time is after 14:30 in the afternoon.

At the same time, the other Shudie appeared in Zhuang Xiao’s large flat at night, but it is also possible that he appeared in the afternoon, but he was not at home at that time.

Zhuang Xiao tried hard to recall what happened before he and Dong Zeyu went out yesterday afternoon, and then he let out a sigh.

"Tsk, what a pity that I didn't go back to the bedroom to see if the bed had changed."

If the bed changes at that time, it means that the "channel" has been opened.

"It seems that we need other methods to figure out how many Shudie can appear at the same time in the real world."

Pity.

Only he and Shu Die could enter the door of his large flat.

Otherwise, since Dong Zeyu is off today, Sunday, he could just call Master Dong and ask him to wait at his house, and then he would wait at the warehouse himself. When the time comes, he would know the result by just touching the message.

But what if Dong Zeyu is called here and then he goes back alone?

No, it's too dangerous.

The "Shu Die" here can really kill people.

At least his home is safe for the time being.

Considering Dong Zeyu's obese physique due to years of lack of exercise, he might just be here to deliver food.

Zhuang Xiao still trusts his own skills more.

But if there are a lot of people, it's fine.

So Zhuang Xiao took out his cell phone and called Gu Shiyue, but maybe because of the bad signal, he was unable to get through.

So he left the basement and came to the warehouse.

Just when he was about to hit again, he suddenly heard a barely perceptible "crackling" sound.

Zhuang Xiao stopped immediately and listened attentively.

Then he realized that this was not an illusion!
There really is a "crackling" sound!

This sound is like something burning!
At the same time, he smelled the stench of burning fat.

And the source of this stench is right under your feet!
