Chapter 066 Jinjiang Debut
Bai Mian's words scared Wu Ainong so much that his hand slipped and he dropped the glass wine jar directly to the ground. The wine jar broke into pieces, the wine spilled all over the floor, and the silicone inside also rolled out.
"How can this thing be related to a murder case?" Wu Ainong asked in surprise, pointing at the silicone on the ground.
"Yes, and it was a murder case that happened near you." Bai Mian said slowly.
Wu Ainong was stunned: "Me? My life is very comfortable, how can there be any murder case?"
Bai Mian: "This is a murder that has not happened yet, but it is about to happen."
Wu Ainong took a deep breath, and Lame Brother's expression also became serious. They were all waiting for Bai Mian to say the next words. Bai Mian pointed at the silicone on the ground and asked: "Don't you think it's strange that an ordinary silicone doll, why would its owner specially throw it into the fields outside the city?"
Lame Brother spread his hands and said, "That guy must have felt embarrassed. If he threw it into the community trash can, he was afraid that the neighbors would find it, so he simply threw it in the wilderness and buried it with soil. He thought that no one would find it, but he didn't expect that it would be dug out by a dog."
Wu Ainong suggested a possibility: "Maybe this guy just wanted to play a trick on others. He buried this thing like a treasure, waiting for a fool like me to be fooled!"
Lame brother agreed: "It could also be a prank, who knows, there are so many perverts in society nowadays!"
Bai Mian shook his head and denied their guesses one by one: "You are all wrong. This man threw the silicone doll in the field because - he was practicing a crime!"
After Bai Mian said this, everyone's face showed a look of horror. The appearance of the silicone doll was like a human. The murderer cut the silicone doll into pieces and threw it into the field. Could it be that he planned to kill people and dispose of the body?
Lame Brother suddenly realized: "Yes, the place where the client lives is in the suburbs, with a sparse population and large fields. It is indeed a good place to dump a body. If the client didn't happen to have a dog, who would have thought that there was something buried underground? Maybe no one would find it for ten or eight years!"
Bai Mian: "Not only that, the murderer is also very smart. He bought a silicone doll in advance, cut it into pieces and threw it in the field to test whether this location is easy to be discovered. If someone finds it, even if it is found out, he can say that he was joking. If no one finds it, then he will choose this place as his body disposal location."
Wu Ainong was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. He realized belatedly and said, "So, when I was walking my dog, the criminal was also there. He might have been hiding behind a tree and watching me! Fortunately, I am lucky!"
He patted his chest, let out a long breath, and thought about what Bai Mian said again, then he noticed the key point in the words: "Master Bai, you just said that the murderer was rehearsing a crime, and this is a murder case that happened around me. Could it be that the murderer is someone around me?"
Before Bai Mian could say anything, Wu Ainong denied his guess: "It's impossible. My social circle is very small after retirement. Usually, there are only my wife and my daughter around me. My wife recently signed up for a tour group and went out to travel. She is not here at all. My daughter is even more impossible. She just started college and she doesn't even dare to kill a fish. How can she have the courage to kill someone?"
He thought for a moment and said, "Oh, yes, I know a few neighbors in the community very well. We often go out for a dog walk together. But these neighbors are all retired elderly people. They are very kind and would never kill anyone!"
Bai Mian interrupted his guess: "The person next to you is not the murderer, but the victim."
Wu Ainong immediately became extremely frightened, his eyes widened and he was speechless.
Bai Mian spoke slowly: "You have to be mentally prepared - the victim of this murder that has not happened is your daughter. If you hadn't come here, the person whose body would be abandoned in the field tomorrow would be your daughter."
Wu Ainong was so frightened that he screamed, sat down on the ground, trembling all over, and his lips quivering.
Bai Mian squatted down, stroked the silicone on the ground, and said softly: "Look, there are many scratches on this piece of silicone. The murderer must have practiced killing her many times with a knife. The murderer hated her so much that he wanted her to die."
"Who is it?" Wu Ainong gritted his teeth in anger. "My daughter is so quiet, kind and polite to everyone. The neighbors all like her very much. Who wants to kill her?"
"Who has she been in contact with recently?" Bai Mian prompted.
Wu Ainong frowned, "My daughter is a freshman in college. She is a very introverted person. She doesn't have many friends and doesn't like to go out. Since she came home for the summer vacation, she hasn't left the house. She hides in her bedroom watching cartoons every day. My husband is not at home, and I can't cook, so I can only order takeout for her. Besides me, the only person she can get in touch with is the takeout boy!"
Lame Brother was a little surprised: "Could the murderer be the takeaway boy? This is too outrageous. They don't know each other. He just picked up a takeaway. How could the murderer hate her to this extent?"
Wu Ainong stood up and turned to leave. As he walked, he said, "I can't care about so much. My daughter is home alone now. Someone wants to harm her. I have to go back to protect her!"
Bai Mian called out to him from behind: "If you go home now, you will surely die!"
Wu Ainong stopped immediately and turned back nervously: "Master, why do you say that? My daughter is in danger now, shouldn't I go back?"
Bai Mian glanced at the time and said, "You should go back, but not at this time. The murderer is lurking in your house at this time."
Wu Ainong became even more nervous. His hands were clenched into fists, his eyes were bloodshot, and he asked in panic, "What? You said the murderer is in my house now?"
Bai Mian nodded: "You lost your key once before, but you didn't take it seriously and went to get a new one. In fact, the lost key was stolen by the murderer. He followed you and pretended to be a passerby when you were shopping and took the key from your pocket. The murderer has your key and can enter your house at any time."
"Today he hid at the corner and watched you leave the house, then used his key to open your security door. Your daughter was watching anime with headphones on and didn't notice the noise at the door, so he sneaked into your house smoothly."
"After entering the room, he was going to attack your daughter, but your daughter locked the bedroom door, so he failed. Now he is hiding in your closet, ready to attack your daughter when she comes out!"
Wu Ainong's forehead was bulging with veins: "The murderer is hiding outside the door. My daughter is in danger now, why don't you let me go back?"
Bai Mian: "If you go home now and alert the murderer, he will be desperate and will attack you. After all, you are old and cannot be his opponent. Then you will be the one to die."
Wu Ainong shouted loudly: "I would rather die than let my daughter be in any danger!"
As he said that, he turned around and tried to leave. Bai Mian winked at Que Ge, who immediately stopped him and pinned him to the ground. Wu Ainong struggled hard, but Que Ge advised him, "Don't worry. Your daughter is fine for now. As long as she doesn't come out of the bedroom, the murderer can't touch her. Don't be impulsive now. You must stay calm."
Wu Ainong yelled, "Calm down? Bah! If it were you, would you be able to calm down? She's fine for now, but she'll have to go to the bathroom, right? Once she opens the door, she'll be dead! Let me go! I'm going back to save her!"
"Don't worry, listen to what the master says first. Since the master has helped you figure it out, he must help you save your daughter," Lame Brother suggested, "How about you call your daughter now? Tell her to hide in the bedroom and don't come out. As long as she stays in the bedroom, maybe she can escape this disaster."
Wu Ainong shook his head in despair: "It's useless. I know this child. She doesn't like to be disturbed when she is watching cartoons. She won't answer the phone even if it's a big deal."
Wu Ainong struggled even harder, and Lame Brother could no longer hold him down. He looked at Bai Mian for help, and Bai Mian said calmly:
"There is only one way to break the impasse, and that is—"
"Let her open the bedroom door herself."
