Chapter 325 The Key Fifth Corpse
After seeing Huang Yaoguo off, Yin Zhiyi took Yin Nanfeng back to her room.
Yin Nanfeng was raised by Yin Zhiyi from a very young age, so the two aunt and niece have very similar mannerisms.
For example, right now, the angle of the orchid fingers that the two of them raise when holding teacups is exactly the same.
"Auntie, my Uncle Cheng has three wives. He's quite the womanizer."
Yin Nanfeng glanced at her aunt furtively, trying to glean something from Yin Zhiyi's face.
Yin Zhiyi gave Yin Nanfeng a reproachful look.
"Didn't your aunt tell you that you're not allowed to discuss Mr. Cheng's affairs? And besides, a man like him, let alone three wives..."
Even thirty or three hundred wouldn't be excessive.
Yin Nanfeng turned her head slightly, her eyes practically rolling to the sky.
This aunt is hopeless; she's a total love-struck fool, and the kind who secretly loves someone but is too afraid to confess.
That night, Yin Zhiyi lay on her warm bed wearing a silk nightgown.
The thin silk couldn't hide the snow-white skin inside, and her pretty face, full of collagen, stared blankly at the ceiling.
"Mr. Cheng..."
For some unknown reason, Yin Zhiyi stirred her legs under the covers, and a blush crept up her cheeks.
Liking someone is never a complicated thing; it might be a word, or a glance.
That moment will be deeply imprinted in your mind, and when you are alone, that scene will involuntarily replay in your mind.
Gradually, people will become deeply involved, and then they will feel that the person's every move is so in line with their own desires.
This is what is known as "beauty is in the eye of the beholder."
A moment later, her legs under the blanket stopped moving, and Yin Zhiyi collapsed onto the pillow, her chest heaving.
After calming down for a while, he quietly ran into the bathroom and began to destroy the evidence.
The next day, after breakfast, Cheng Feng got into a car arranged by the New Moon Hotel and headed to the abandoned building where the fire had occurred.
I've never been to this place before, so it would be better to have someone who knows the way pick me up and drop me off.
The driver at the Crescent Hotel drove very steadily, and I didn't feel any fluctuations in the wind the whole way.
The ride became slightly bumpy only when we reached the vicinity of the abandoned building where the fire had occurred, due to the damaged ground.
The car stopped very quickly.
A group of young men and women in uniforms arrived and came forward, led by Huang Yaoguo.
The driver got out of the car and opened the door for Cheng Feng. As Cheng Feng got out, Huang Yaoguo quickly stepped forward and said:
“Mr. Cheng, these are all our colleagues from the bureau. They will fully cooperate with your operation this time.”
"Okay, let's go check it out on site first!"
Huang Yaoguo's attitude put these talented young people on edge; no one who could get into such a department was a fool.
Their boss's attitude already spoke volumes, so they all silently reminded themselves to make sure they left a good impression on this person.
This abandoned building is actually quite strange; it stands alone in a wasteland, with a half-finished fence on the outside.
It's like a corner that was cut off from a normal neighborhood.
Walking through this half of the fence, Cheng Feng and his group arrived at the entrance of this detached building.
"Mr. Cheng, the bodies were found on the fourth and fifth floors respectively. They each occupied a room, and the forensic examination showed that their cause of death was drowning."
As they went up the stairs, Huang Yaoguo lagged half a step behind Cheng Feng, telling him the inside story of the matter as they walked.
"Does your bureau have any speculations about this matter?"
Although Cheng Feng already knew the answer in advance, the necessary procedures still had to be followed.
Although it's a bit troublesome now, it can save us from even bigger trouble later.
"Mr. Cheng, after joint research by our criminal investigation experts and theologians, it is very likely that a cult is holding a sacrifice here."
However, this ritual did not fit any of the cults we were familiar with, so we didn't find anything useful from this lead.
Cheng Feng nodded. In fact, their guesses were quite close; this was indeed a ceremony.
However, due to a lack of relevant information, the direction of the speculation was flawed.
Upon reaching the fourth floor, the walls still bore the tarnished hue of a fire.
The group walked through the ashes on the ground into the stairwell.
You can see that the corridor is lined with unfinished rooms that are open at both ends, and there must have been a lot of things inside before the fire.
But by then, everything had been reduced to ashes.
"Mr. Cheng, this is the room where the first body was found."
Guided by Huang Yaoguo, Cheng Feng entered the room on his right. The walls of this room were completely burned black.
The only difference was the shape of the deceased outlined in white on the ground.
"If the other rooms are also burned to this extent, there's no need to go see them. Let's just go up to the rooftop and take a look."
"Okay, Mr. Cheng."
Huang Yaoguo agreed without hesitation and then led Cheng Feng to the rooftop.
On the fifth-floor staircase, Cheng Feng looked down at a row of dark footprints that were now spreading upwards.
"After comparison, these footprints were made by the female corpse on the rooftop. Her body should have been burned at that time."
When Huang Yaoguo said this, he looked at Cheng Feng's face, but Cheng Feng remained as calm as ever, showing no emotion whatsoever.
Upon arriving at the rooftop, the female corpse had already been removed, leaving only a dark burning spot with the shape of the corpse drawn on it.
After glancing at the location where the body was burning, Cheng Feng walked towards the edge of the rooftop.
Apart from Huang Yao, the other young elites quietly stopped not far away.
Cheng Feng stood with his arms crossed at the edge of the rooftop, his gaze sweeping over the wasteland behind the abandoned building.
Soon, Cheng Feng's gaze fell upon an underground well that was covered by a stone.
"Chief Huang, a total of fourteen bodies were found in this case, right?"
"Yes, Mr. Cheng, including the one on the rooftop, there are a total of fourteen bodies."
Cheng Feng's keen eyes focused on the well opening below, and he said calmly, "There is still a fifteenth body that has not been discovered here."
Moreover, the focus of this incident lies in the corpse.
"There's something very troublesome on that corpse; any ordinary person who gets it on will surely die."
Huang Yaoguo's expression changed, and he quickly asked:
"Mr. Cheng, what do you mean?"
"I will personally bring the body back, but before that, I need you to process something for me, the faster the better."
Huang Yaoguo readily agreed, saying that with the resources he could mobilize, even if Cheng Feng wanted to conjure up a bomb on short notice, he could do so in a very short time.
Cheng Feng and Huang Yaoguo then took a car back to the New Moon Hotel.
Cheng Feng left Huang Yaoguo waiting outside the door and went into the room himself.
After a while, Cheng Feng came out holding an exquisite bronze tiger tally.
Huang Yaoguo couldn't help but swallow hard as he looked at the tiger tally that Cheng Feng had suddenly produced. This thing was clearly no ordinary object.
If it were put up for auction, it would probably fetch an outrageous price.
"Destroy this tiger tally into needles about ten centimeters long, and make as many as possible, so that it will be safer later."
After saying that, Cheng Feng threw the Yin Soldier Tiger Talisman, which he had obtained from the system many years ago, to Huang Yaoguo.
