“These cases are indeed related to supernatural events. My overall thinking is not wrong. What’s wrong is that their deaths have nothing to do with metal, wood, water, fire, or earth.”
Li Changjun quickly got his bearings.
The four victims were all employees of the Qingshan cement factory.
In the house of the fourth victim, Pang Guang smelled a ghost.
The strange circumstances of the deaths of the first three victims were connected.
A general possibility appeared in Li Changjun’s mind.
The first three victims should have been killed by ghosts as well.
“Dr. Chen, why did the ghost kill them?”
Li Changjun asked straightforwardly.
If he couldn’t figure out the reason, he could seek Chen Yu’s help. This was the simplest solution.
“Sigh.” Sighing with a complicated expression, Chen Yu said, “These people have done evil things that are intolerable to the heavens.”
“Their deaths are retribution.”
“What?” Pang Guang immediately reacted and said, “In other words, their deaths are the work of a vengeful ghost. An eye for an eye?”
“Yes.” Nodding, Chen Yu said, “Follow me. 1’11 take you to find the truth in this case.”
Pang Guang and Li Changjun immediately followed Chen Yu out of the crime scene.
Then, Li Changjun left four policemen to guard the scene.
After bringing all the other police officers to his side, Chen Yu followed them to the cement factory located at the edge of Qingshan Town.
Standing before the cement factory’s entrance, Chen Yu placed his hands behind his back and asked Pang Guang, Do you see the trick?”
“I see it.”
“If you don’t do anything wrong, you won’t be afraid of ghosts,” Pang Guang sneered sarcastically. “Just one door, and they’ve already set up so many tricks.”
“There must be someone inside who has done evil deeds that harm the heavens and reason.”
“What are you guys talking about? Why can’t I understand a single word?”
Li Changjun was confused.
Pang Guang took two steps forward and knocked on the door of the cement factory.
“The door is smeared with a black dog’s blood. Since ancient times, black dog’s blood has always been the best to exorcise ghosts and exterminate demons.” After he finished speaking, Pang Guang clasped his hands tightly.
He frowned and muttered something.
His right foot tapped the ground with frequency.
In a short while, Pang Guang’s entire aura changed.
Li Changjun, who had dealt with criminals all year round, also changed his expression.
He felt a bone-chilling aura from Pang Guang.
This aura reminded Li Changjun of those bandits who had their hands stained with blood and committed all kinds of crimes.
Then, an unexpected scene appeared in front of everyone.
Pang Guang stomped his feet on the ground, his body like a nimble kangaroo.
He jumped to a height of nearly three meters and pulled down the plaque above the door with both hands.
“What is this?”
Li Changjun asked in surprise.
The back of the company’s plaque was covered with yellow talisman paper, and on it was a pattern that looked like a ghost drawn with red paint.
Pang Guang threw the plaque at everyone’s feet and said, “A talisman used to exorcise evil spirits. It would not only exorcise evil spirits but also deter them.” “Who’s making a ruckus outside? It’s time to get off work now. Come back tomorrow to buy cement.”
As she spoke, a man’s voice came from inside.
“It’s me, Li Changjun, the captain of the Hangzhou Criminal Investigation Division,” Li Changjun said with a serious expression.
“Captain Li, why are you here again?”
Not long after, the door of the cement factory was opened.
A bald man in his fifties looked at the crowd outside the door helplessly.
“Captain Li, I’ve cooperated with everything that needs to be done. You said that you wanted to interview the employees one by one, so I asked them to stop the production at hand and call all the employees over for investigation.”
“You asked me to introduce them to their personal information, and I have also done that.”
“It’s the middle of the night. Why are you here again? Don’t tell me you suspect that I killed them?”
“Eh? Who tore down my signboard?”
The old man kept complaining and glanced at the signboard on the ground from the corner of his eye.
Jiang Damao, the boss of the Qingshan cement factory, was unhappy.
“It’s the duty of every citizen to cooperate with the investigation,” Li Changjun said in a business-like tone.
“If there’s nothing wrong with you, we wouldn’t have come to find you in the middle of the night.”
“Don’t tell me you don’t know what’s behind the plaque?”
“Oh, you mean this.”
“Talismans, these are all talismans used to exorcise evil in the An Residence,” Jiang Damao said disapprovingly.
“We business people pay the most attention to Feng Shui.”
“It’s not against the law to stick something up to keep you safe, right?”
Jiang Damao asked.
“It’s only used to protect our safety. Of course, it’s not illegal. However, if there are other uses, we have to investigate carefully.”
Apart from being the captain of the Criminal Investigation Division, Li Changjun was also the deputy leader of the Special Operations Team.
Li Changjun had recently learned a lot about strange things.
Why did he have to set up these protections if he didn’t do anything wrong?
Li Changjun pointed at the door and asked. “If the talisman is to ensure the safety of your cement factory, what does it mean to paint the door with black dog blood?”
Jiang Damao’s expression changed. “It’s also to ensure our safety,” he said with a normal expression.
“I’m in the cement business. There’s constant noise in the factory every day, and it’s easy to disturb some unclean things.”
“Captain Li, don’t laugh at me. Whether this is feudal superstition or not, it’s just a self-consolation for us businessmen.”
“You can go to other companies to take a look. I can guarantee they will definitely come up with more stuff than me.”
“Hehehe.”
“Boss Jiang, it’s already so late.” Chen Yu sneered. “You’re not going to Phoenix City’s nightclub, are you?”
“No, you’ve been under great mental pressure recently. Even if you want to go, you can’t.”
“You should be preparing to buy tickets overnight and go out of town to relax, right?”
Jiang Damao was dressed neatly and wore a pair of sports shoes that were easy to move around in.
“Where is Boss Jiang planning to go?”
Li Changjun asked coldly.
“I… I didn’t want to go anywhere. 1 was busy settling the accounts just now and didn’t manage to change my clothes. I’ll change my clothes and rest in a while.” Jiang Damao argued.
“Not long ago, Liang Yutian, a factory worker, died miserably at home. Can you really sleep?” Chen Yu continued asking.
When he heard the words “Liang Yutian died tragically at home,” Jiang Damao fell to the ground as if he had seen a ghost.
Li Changjun gave his subordinates a look.
Two police officers helped Jiang Damao from the ground and held him firmly under control.
“Jiang Damao, you’ve lived for a long time. You should know the policies of the relevant departments.”
“Leniency to those who confess, severity to those who resist. Did you and these dead people do something wrong?”
“Are you worried that retribution will befall you, so you want to leave this place to avoid the limelight?”
Li Changjun could already tell that Jiang Damao was up to something.
His rolling eyes and trembling legs proved that he was a major suspect.
“No, no, absolutely not.”
“I’ve lived for most of my life. I’ve only done good things and never done bad things. Their deaths have nothing to do with me.”
Jiang Damao explained desperately.
After work today, he did not leave the cement factory at all..
