C13 (1/2)
When I left in the morning, I sent a message to the communication company to find out where Elder Miao had texted me last night.
After all, texting was something that could be edited beforehand. When it was time to send the message, he could simply press the button.
If Elder Miao had already edited the text, it was possible for him to act out such a scene for the sake of removing any suspicion from our minds. As long as he pressed the send button while he was running, no one would connect the figure with him.
So I kept an eye out and told the board to check with the communications company.
However, he didn't expect the big boss to directly head over to the Public Security Bureau and use the system there to check Elder Miao's cell phone number.
It was just as Elder Miao had said. From yesterday afternoon, Elder Miao's mobile phone had been transferred outside the county. Furthermore, he hadn't moved it ever since he arrived at a certain location. That is, when Elder Miao sent me a text message last night, he was outside the county. The idea that we had of Elder Miao being the culprit can be rejected!
From the investigation, Big Board also learned that Zhang Youfu seemed to have been involved in a bizarre car accident. He was taken to the police station's interrogation room last night and didn't leave until almost two in the night.
After that, Bighead desperately tried to find the person in charge of the monitoring system and directly called out last night's monitoring system from the Internet Defense System.
From the monitoring records, when Gu Yan was chasing after the building, a figure actually appeared. Moreover, that figure's movements were extremely incongruous, as if it was injured!
This meant that what Gu Yan said last night was true! However, the person who had brought the puppet to the construction site was neither Elder Miao nor Zhang You Fu!
What I know is that only Elder Miao and Zhang Youfu know about those things on the construction site. If it wasn't for them, who would have done it? After all, it couldn't be Zhang Shimin!
Wait! Previously, when Gu Yan said that we had to touch the wooden bull to make that ghost kill someone, I had suspected Zhang Shimin. However, Elder Miao's words later on made me reject everything that Gu Yan said and at the same time, reject my own conjecture.
Now that I think about it, if what Gu Yan said was true, doesn't that mean that my guess back then was also true? The person who tried to harm me, is it really Zhang Shimin's family?
Thinking about this, my heart instantly cooled down.
No matter what, I don't want to believe that Zhang Shimin is the person who tried to harm me. Right now, everything has been pointed at Zhang Shimin, causing me to be extremely conflicted.
In order to not expose any flaws in front of her, I did my best to calm my heart down. After a few casual words, I left her house on the pretext that I still had some matters to attend to.
After leaving her house, I still didn't want to believe that she was the one who wanted to harm me. I thought that there might be someone else hiding in the dark who wanted to harm me.
After returning to the construction site, I ignored the surprised gazes of the security personnel of the day shift and directly called out last night's surveillance. The video on the monitor was just as Big Board had said. While Gu Yan was chasing after the building, a figure had indeed appeared near the building. Furthermore, that person was holding something similar to a puppet!
Although the photo did not show the man's face, his skin was as white as a woman's under the infrared rays!
When I saw this scene, my head started buzzing. I just stared blankly at the scene until the shift was over.
”Yo, you recovered pretty well!” You're coming to work so soon? ”
When I looked at the shift watch, my mind was blank. Suddenly, I heard a familiar voice. I immediately turned my head away as if I had been injected with chicken blood.
That's right, the person who appeared in front of me was the old man who brought me the wooden bull, Elder Liu!
