Chapter 391 - The Eye of Terror!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The Old Daoist is an optimist,
a death-seeking,
a lightning-seeking,
a probing,
an egg-yolk,
a seventy-one-year-old man, who has experienced countless storms and upheavals in his life, even if he has never seen a ghost, never seen a ghost, never been baptized by unnatural phenomena,
at this time,
he should not be like this.
His expression was dull,
his gaze was turbid,
his hair and beard were disheveled,
he looked as if he had lost his soul.
Zhou Ze looked at Zhang Yanfeng.
Boss Zhou needed an explanation. He could let the old Daoist take a ride in a wheelchair that could sing children’s songs, but he would not allow others to do anything to the old Daoist.
“You’ve misunderstood. When he was found at the crime scene, he was sitting at the door with a knife in his hand. He looked exactly like this.
“In the police station, there is no such thing as torture or extortion. You can rest assured about this.”
Zhou Ze nodded.
“This is the previous statement. Take a look.”
Old Zhang handed the statement to Zhou Ze and continued:
“During the interrogation, when the police questioned him, he answered and cooperated very well. He basically explained the case clearly.
“The deceased was an old man who lived there. He was 65 years old this year. His body was found in the freezer, and many parts of his skin and flesh had been cut off.
“We also found leftovers from cooking in the kitchen trash can. After examination, it was confirmed to be human flesh, and it was the flesh of the deceased.”
Zhou Ze flipped through the transcript,
in the transcript..
the old Daoist described the whole process of his crime, including how he killed, how he disposed of the body, how he cooked, and a series of other things. He gave a very detailed account, including what kind of wine he drank during the meal.
“Did he say this himself?”Zhou Ze asked with the notebook in his hand.
Old Zhang nodded.
Zhou Ze threw the notebook on the table, leaned forward slightly, looked at the old Daoist, and softly shouted,
“Old Daoist, do you still remember who I am?”
The old Daoist raised his head,
he looked left,
he looked right,
he looked up again,
he looked down again,
finally, he grinned,
he said with a smile,
“You’re the Boss.”
As he spoke, saliva actually dripped from the corner of the old Daoist’s mouth.
“There’s something wrong with his mind,” Zhou Ze said.
“The higher-ups think that he’s trying to muddle through in this way.”
“If he wants to muddle through, why does he have to explain the details of the crime in such detail?”Zhou Ze asked in return.
“I don’t know either.”Old Zhang took a deep breath and said, “That’s why I rushed back to look for you. I feel that what happened to the old Daoist is unusual.”
Hearing that,
Zhou Ze closed his eyes,
his fingers tapped lightly on the table.
“Can you turn off the camera?”Zhou Ze opened his eyes and looked at the camera above his head.
“No, I’m not in charge of this case right now. I don’t have much room to operate. If you turn off the camera, the Special Task Force will come over immediately.”
The old Daoist continued to sit in a daze,historical
at this moment..
he really looked like an old man in his seventies,
an old man in his seventies who had dementia.
“Old Daoist, what exactly happened? Who Did you meet? Tell me,” Zhou Ze said again.
At the same time..
under the table..
Zhou Ze’s fingers were already clenched tightly,
which bastard..
made this old Daoist look like this!
“Huh?”The old Daoist raised his head with some doubt and smiled. He said very sincerely, “I killed someone, I ate someone, I broke the law..
i want to eat peanuts..
i like eating peanuts the most..
the peanuts are so delicious.”
Zhou Ze stared at the old Daoist’s eyes carefully, but he could not see anything from the old Daoist’s eyes.
One thing was certain..
the old Daoist had not killed anyone.
If he had, he would not have dared to act crazy in front of him, because the old Daoist knew that even if he had eaten peanuts, he would still have to report to him in the end!
Zhou Ze immediately made a decision,
he said,
“Arrange for Old An to meet with the old Daoist.”
Zhou Ze was only good at carrying out mental matters, such as hypnosis and illusions, but he was not good at using and understanding them.
In the current situation of the old Daoist..
he could only let Lawyer An handle it.
“It’s a bit difficult,” said Old Zhang.
“Old Zhang,” shouted Zhou Ze.
“Yes.”
“He’s a living person.”Zhou Ze pointed at the old Daoist. “There are many people in the study who are neither human nor ghost, but the old Daoist is a living person.”
“I know.”
“He’s a citizen in your eyes.”
“I know too.”
“I won’t say anything about identity. Just take it as you were in the past. When you knew that a good man was going to be wronged and take the blame, as a policeman with a sense of justice and responsibility, what would you do?”
“Boss, you don’t have to say these things to me.”Old Zhang smiled bitterly. “I know what I should do. What I’m hesitating about is that I’ve already violated discipline by bringing you here. I can even use the reason that you’re a consultant so that the people from the Special Task Force won’t say anything.
“But if I bring Old An here again, I might be isolated by the special task force. At that time, with my identity, I won’t be of much help to you.”
“Bring Old An to see him. This matter is no longer within the jurisdiction of the police.”
“Okay.”
Since the boss had decided, Old Zhang did not waste any more words.
..
Fifteen minutes later, Lawyer An walked into the interrogation room.
Zhang Yanfeng stood at the door of the interrogation room and helped to keep an eye on it. The higher-ups would soon realize that there was not much time left.
Lawyer An came in and glanced at the old Daoist. At first, he was still smiling, but slowly, the smile on his face began to fade and was replaced by a serious look.
He sat down,
Lawyer An waved his hand in front of the old Daoist,
“Do you know me?”
The old Daoist nodded and said, “Perverted lawyer.”
Lawyer An frowned.
“Was he hypnotized, or was he hypnotized?”Zhou Ze asked.
“He was hypnotized,” Lawyer An replied.
“Now, Can You Solve It?”Zhou Ze pointed at the copy of the transcript on the table and said, “If you don’t solve it, he will turn this matter into an iron case.”
Lawyer An placed his hands on the desk and kept crossing them. “He knows you too, right?”
Zhou Ze nodded.
“Generally speaking, hypnosis affects a person’s judgment through subconscious changes. This is a high-level method, but a low-level method is to use a cover-up method to cover up the original personality thinking and replace it with a new personality thinking.
For example..
to hypnotize a person into a chicken.
“But his mind is very clear now and he can recognize you and me. However, he is still confessing to the case..”
Lawyer An opened the notebook and took a few glances,
“This proves that the person who hypnotized is very powerful.”
“Is it a person or a Ghost?”Zhou Ze was eager to know this.
“It’s hard to say. It’s very likely that it’s not a person, but it’s also possible that it’s a person. For some powerful people, the method of hypnosis is really amazing.
“Right now, it’s not easy to make a judgment.
“I’ll give it a try first and see if I can help him undo the hypnosis.”
Lawyer An, who had always liked to act pretentious..
this time, he actually spoke so modestly..
and he even used the word “Give it a try”..
it was enough to show just how serious the situation was,
it had even exceeded Zhou Ze’s original expectations.
Lawyer An lowered his arm and hid his left hand in his sleeve. After all, this was a police station and there were cameras. Whatever he did, he had to be careful.
The flesh on his left hand began to slowly degenerate, revealing the inside of his white bones.
A pink smoke that could not be seen by the naked eye began to spread out,
it slowly enveloped the old Daoist and drilled into his eyes, ears, mouth, and nose.
The old Daoist, who was originally in a daze, was suddenly startled,
then, he suddenly sat straighter,
he opened his mouth,
his eyes also closed.
Lawyer An also slowly closed his eyes,
he opened his mouth and shouted:
“Old Daoist, open your eyes..”
..
“Old Daoist, open your eyes!”
Lawyer An also opened his eyes,
he was currently in the darkness,
but very quickly, everything around him began to slowly appear.
In the narrow corridor,
around him were mottled walls.
Lawyer An frowned. Generally speaking, when he hypnotized people, he liked to design the scene in the private room of the clubhouse because it could make people feel comfortable and comfortable. Of course, there were also some hypnotists who liked to design places like the beach, it could only be said that each person’s preferences were different.
But this time..
the scene was actually not designed by himself,
this meant..
the person who did this to the old Daoist was very strong, so strong that Lawyer An was unable to pull out the old Daoist’s consciousness.
In front of him was a door.
Lawyer An pushed the door open,
he saw the old Daoist curled up in a corner,
his body was trembling non-stop.
His face was deathly pale,
he was constantly breathing out white gas and trembling.
“Old Daoist, Old Daoist!”
Lawyer An shouted.
The old Daoist did not pay any attention to him and continued to curl up in a ball.
Then..
Lawyer An saw an old Daoist sitting at the dining table in the living room. That Old Daoist was drinking wine and eating dishes while chatting happily with the person opposite him who did not even exist.
In the kitchen,
the old Daoist was wearing an apron,
he was cooking,
the aroma of meat permeated the air.
Lawyer An walked in and pushed open the door of a room.
Inside,
he saw the old Daoist standing beside the freezer with a knife in his hand. He was cutting something while muttering to himself:
“This piece is too thin, this piece is too fat, this piece is still okay..”
Lawyer An continued to walk in and walked to the side of the freezer,
looking down,
turns out the guy in the freezer was a pro, too.
“Master, Will you wake up?”
Cried the lawyer.
To be honest,
Lawyer An is panicking now,
this kind of hypnosis,
it is the first time he’s seen it, too.
The old man standing beside the refrigerator with a knife heard this and suddenly looked at Lawyer An beside him. At the same time, he made a “Shh” gesture to Lawyer An,
he said nervously,
“Shh, Lower Your Voice. It’s watching.”
“Who’s watching?”Lawyer An asked.
The old Daoist pointed to the top of his head,
Lawyer An raised his head,
he saw that on the ceiling of the room,
there were densely packed eyes,
this was a scene that was enough to make a person with agoraphobia break down,
inside..
most of the eyes were closed as if they were taking a nap
Only a few eyes,
half open, half open..
