Chapter 066 Jinjiang First Release
Bai Mian's words frightened Wu Ainong so much that his hand slipped and he dropped the glass wine decanter directly to the ground. The wine decanter broke into pieces, the wine spilled all over the floor, and the silicone inside also rolled out.
"How could this thing be related to a murder case?" Wu Ainong asked in surprise, pointing at the silicone on the ground.
"Not bad, and it's a murder 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 would be thrown into a field on the outskirts of the city by its owner?"
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 a dog would dig it out."
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 now!"
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 rehearsing a crime!"
After Bai Mian said this, everyone showed a look of extreme fear on their faces. The silicone doll looked like a human, and the murderer cut the silicone doll into pieces and threw it into the field. Could it be that he planned to kill the person and dump the body?
Lame Brother suddenly realized: "Yes, the place where Yuanzhu lives is on the outskirts of the city. It is sparsely populated and has large fields. It is indeed a good place to dump corpses. If Yuanzhu 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 was also very smart. He bought a silicone doll in advance, cut it into pieces and threw it in the field to test whether this place would be easy to be found. If someone found it, he could say he was joking. If no one found it, he would choose this place as his place to dump the body."
Wu Ainong was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. He realized belatedly that he was there, "So, when I was walking my dog, the criminal was there too. He might have been hiding behind a tree and watching me. Fortunately, I am lucky!"
He patted his chest, took 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 was a murder case that happened near me. Could it be that the murderer is someone near 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 on a trip. She is not here at all. My daughter is even more impossible. She just entered 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 terrified, 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, then the person whose body would be abandoned in the field tomorrow would be your daughter."
Wu Ainong was so frightened that he screamed and 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 on earth 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 on earth 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 summer vacation, she has not left the house. She hides in her bedroom every day watching anime. 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 come into contact with is the takeout boy!"
Lame Brother was a little surprised: "Could the murderer be the delivery boy? This is too outrageous. They didn't know each other. He just picked up a takeaway. How could the murderer hate her to such an extent?"
Wu Ainong stood up and turned to leave. As he walked, he said, "I can't care about all this anymore. My daughter is alone at home 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 immediately stopped 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 care and went to get a new one. In fact, the lost key was stolen by the murderer. He followed you and took the key from your pocket while you were shopping, pretending to be a passerby. The murderer has your key and can enter your house at any time."
"Today he hid at the corner and watched you go out, then used his key to open the security door of your house. 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, waiting for your daughter to come out before attacking her!"
Wu Ainong's forehead was bulging with veins: "The murderer is hiding outside the door. My daughter is in such danger now. Why don't you let me go back?"
Bai Mian: "If you go home now and alarm the murderer, he will be desperate and 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 do anything to her. You can't be impulsive now. You must stay calm."
Wu Ainong yelled, "Be calm? Bah! If it were you, would you be calm? She's fine for now, but she has 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 figured it out for you, he must be able to help save your daughter," Lame Brother suggested, "Why don't 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 anime. 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. Bai Mian said calmly:
"There is only one way to break the current situation, and that is——"
"Let her open the bedroom door herself."
