"Judging from the marks in the mine, it's far beyond the level of a conflict."

It was already a fierce battle, a fight to the death!

Inside a mine in Mentougou District!

Zheng Yuanqiao squatted down, carefully observing the direction of several overlapping footprints and the pattern of bloodstains, his expression solemn.

"It's a small-scale, deadly fight using equipment."

Judging from the direction and point of force of these footprints, it's clear that multiple people were confronting, chasing, and fighting.

Previously, the killer mentioned in a video posted online that he would orchestrate a plan for the seven missing persons to kill each other inside the mine.

This cold and cruel declaration was now confirmed by the scene before them.

"Look, there's a tape recorder over there!"

Xu Xinyi's voice came from a slightly open fork in the road to the side.

The crowd immediately gathered around.

It was a depression, roughly ten square meters in size, that had been carved out by hand.

It's like a temporary rest stop or tool storage point.

In the recessed area at the top, there was an old-fashioned portable tape recorder with a cassette tape inserted.

There was a layer of dust on it, but it had obviously been moved recently.

A detective put on gloves and carefully picked up the tape recorder to examine it.

"There's still power." He pressed play.

The tape recorder's indicator light came on, the tape started spinning, and it emitted a series of hissing, blank noises.

A few seconds later, with a soft "click," the tape stopped spinning and the indicator light went out.

The detectives tried fast forwarding, rewinding, and even opening the back cover to inspect the tape.

But only noise was transmitted.

“Team Leader Shen,” he looked up, a puzzled expression on his face.

"That's a bit strange!"

It seems there's no content inside.

The tape was blank, or rather... completely erased.

After examining the evidence, the forensic pathologist also said:

"The machine itself is not physically damaged, but the storage medium is empty."

The tape contents were automatically deleted?

The murderer was indeed meticulous; he even set the contents of the tape to be automatically erased.

"This tape recorder looks somewhat similar to the one involved in the case of the missing girl in Baole City!"

As Xu Xin spoke, she carefully examined the tape recorder, then shook her head:

"It doesn't look like it!"

As far as I remember, it should be one model of tape recorder.

She looked at Shen Ting, and Shen Ting nodded to her.

He also noticed the special features of this tape recorder.

In the previous case of the missing girl in Baole District, the cave below the blood and flesh statue in the Taihang Mountains was mentioned.

Police found a broken tape recorder.

After confirming that the suspect was Xu Jianshan, he was arrested and interrogated!

According to his account, the tape recorder appeared in his bag after he went out to carve Buddha statues and returned.

It is associated with the doctrines of the Black Lotus Cult.

The content on the tape recorder was a recitation of the "Blood Edict Sutra".

Based on the connection between the case and the spy, as well as some unusual aspects of the spy that were previously known.

The investigation team determined at the time that the tape recorder might have been a tool used by the spy to hypnotize, bewitch, or brainwash Xu Jianshan.

Based on information provided by the perpetrator after his arrest in the previous Miyun District bombing case, the spy possessed this capability.

"The recorder models should indeed be the same."

So, is this case really related to the voyeur?

Shen Ting turned his gaze away from the tape recorder and pondered to himself:

“Normally, even if the suspect had kept the seven missing persons under control in this mine, it would be impossible to know the truth.”

The seven of them wouldn't turn on each other in such a short time.

Perhaps the killer used the tape recorder to hypnotize the missing person, affecting their rationality and judgment?

Shen Ting cannot confirm these things at the moment.

We can only wait until Xiong Beibei and the others wake up before making a decision.

Shen Ting's gaze fell on the other corners of this "rest stop".

There, leaning against the rock wall, were a few things.

The flashlight beam swept across, and everyone was startled.

Those are not the tools that should be found in a mine.

Instead, it's all kinds of weapons!

A homemade crossbow, its rough arm but taut string indicating it had been used before.

Scattered nearby were several sharpened short arrows made from unknown metal strips.

Two long spears, welded together from steel pipes and sharpened triangular iron, had tips that gleamed with a cold, hard light under the lamp.

A large machete with a curled blade and dark red stains.

There were also several long knives and daggers of varying lengths, which looked more like they were disassembled and modified from some kind of agricultural or industrial machinery.

Bows and crossbows, spears, longswords, machetes...

These cold weapons lay there silently.

It seemed to be telling the story of the bloody battle that had taken place in the depths of this darkness not long ago.

What happened in this mine is already quite obvious!

The missing people are trapped here, under the influence, manipulation, or coercion of the contents of the tape recorder.

They acquired these weapons and began killing each other.

However, it was ultimately stopped by Xiong Beibei.

Xiong Beibei knocked out the other six people and used a mine cart to pull them to the collapsed rock wall to wait for rescue.

"Take photos, collect evidence, and handle with care."

Shen Ting's voice was steady, but his eyes flickered.

The infighting in the mines was comparable to a battle royale in a movie.

If it weren't for Xiong Beibei stopping them, the scene would probably have been many times more tragic than it is now.

The murderer who could devise all of this is clearly no ordinary person.

not to mention!

The murderer is also connected to the voyeur!

"Team Leader Shen!"

At this moment, a criminal police officer who had gone deeper into the other side of the mine tunnel reported loudly:

"An explosive device has been found here!"

Everyone rushed over immediately.

In a relatively hidden recess that appeared to be a former electrician's work area, they saw something even more unsettling.
