Weird apocalypse: Spend money on ghosts and get a 10,000x return

Chu Yang shook his head. The most urgent thing should be to find out how the murderer killed the victim.

He was killed by the guillotine, but the specific details must be made clear, which is very meaningful for solving the case.

After a long time, Ye Wuyou walked over with a tired look on his face.

"The guillotine is five meters high, the blade is one meter high, but the rope on the workbench is fifteen meters long." Ye Wuyou said with a serious expression.

"Something's wrong." Chu Yang looked at Ye Wuyou.

"You can see that something is wrong. The rope is too long."

"Even if you put the blade upright on the ground, the ideal maximum distance is only nine meters, but this rope is a full fifteen meters long."

"It's too long. The guillotine blade can't even stay suspended in the air."

"Also, only the two ends of the rope showed signs of use, with no signs of use in the middle. This directly rules out the possibility that the murderer used the middle section of the rope."

Ye Wuyou said.

"There's nothing wrong with the other clues, it's just this one that's suspicious." Ye Wuyou continued.

Chu Yang paced back and forth at the scene, lost in deep thought.

"Captain, what weapon caused the trauma on the back of Qin Lan's head?"

"A blunt object, but we can't tell what it is exactly. It's very strange, like being hit by a round hard object." said the team leader.

Chu Yang nodded. He was tired of looking down, so he raised his head to loosen his neck, and suddenly saw two beams on the ceiling!

Ye Wuyou saw Chu Yang's eyes, so he looked over and immediately showed a look of sudden enlightenment, then shook his head.

"No, still not right. If the rope is passed through the ceiling beam, the maximum distance will increase, but it's still not as high as fifteen meters. I can calculate it using the Pythagorean theorem."

Ye Wuyou shook his head.

Chu Yang nodded. The two beams were covered with dust and showed no signs of use.

But it did give him some ideas.

At first, Chu Yang even thought that the rope was not the one used for the guillotine, and the real rope might have been thrown away by the murderer.

But now that I have changed my way of thinking, I can immediately determine that this rope is the rope that hangs the guillotine.

So the question is, how is this rope distributed?

A guillotine blade hung on one end, passed through the top of the guillotine in the middle, and the other end was held in the murderer's hand.

Chu Yang and Ye Wuyou had both calculated the distance. Even if the murderer held the other end of the rope and stood in the corner of the warehouse farthest from the guillotine, the distance would be less than fifteen meters.

"I thought of a key." Ye Wuyou said suddenly.

Chu Yang looked at Ye Wuyou.

"The guillotine rope is supposed to pass over the top of the guillotine, right?"

"Correct."

"We can think of this as a fold."

"Since the distance of one folded length is shorter than the length of the rope, what about folding it twice?" Ye Wuyou asked.

"But there are no traces of rope friction on the beam." Chu Yang said.

"It doesn't have to be a beam. Let's look for other places to hang the rope." Ye Wuyou said.

"Well, what you said makes sense. Let's look for it." Chu Yang nodded, agreeing with Ye Wuyou's theory.

I searched for a long time but couldn't find it.

"Either the places that can bear the weight of the blade are in places that cannot bear the weight of the blade, but there are no signs of friction with the rope."

Ye Wuyou sighed.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, the sky outside darkened, with lightning, thunder, strong winds and heavy rain.

The warehouse door was shaking violently due to the strong wind, and a bolt of lightning suddenly struck the top of the warehouse.

The loud thunder frightened everyone.

Chu Yang and Ye Wuyou looked even uglier. They both understood that this sudden bad weather was aimed at them.

Maybe half of the time for the regular task has passed. If the case is not solved within the specified time, the thunder will directly kill them both.

At this time, the team leader received a call: "Detective Chu, Detective Ye, Qin Lan is awake, do you two have any questions?"

The team leader hurriedly handed over the phone.

Chu Yang took it and immediately asked, "Hello? Can you hear me?"

There are doubts about the way the deceased was killed and his interpersonal relationships.

As long as one of the two doubts can be solved, the case will be immediately cleared up!

"Let...let Wu Hua...remember her last name." A weak female voice came from the other end of the phone.

"What do you mean? What's wrong with her last name? Why do you want her to remember it specifically?" Chu Yang asked hurriedly.

The voice on the other end of the phone suddenly became very noisy. After a while, the doctor's voice appeared: "I'm sorry, Qin Lan is dead."

"died!?"

Chu Yang wanted to curse loudly.

Wake up, say something confusing and then die?

What’s the difference between this and a filial father who told his son that there was 10 million in his bank card and that he had the password but died before he could finish telling it?

"Surname?"

"Tell me about their relationship."

Ye Wuyou suddenly said hurriedly.

Chu Yang was not vague and told everything he knew.

"Are you wondering why these three people, who have nothing to do with you, appear in the warehouse?" Ye Wuyou asked.

"Yes, aren't you confused?"

"The question is, are these three people really unrelated? The deceased's surname is Wu, and the little girl's surname is also Wu!"

"The girl who had the biggest dispute with the deceased was surnamed Qin, and the woman who just died was also surnamed Qin!"

"You still say it doesn't matter?"

"Chu Yang, don't really think that this is the case we know of."

"In the human world, solving a crime requires rigorous logic and a complete, closed-loop chain of evidence."

"But this is a rules mission!"

"Coincidence is irrefutable evidence!"

Ye Wuyou's voice gradually became louder and louder, as if he had grasped a key point.

His words immediately woke Chu Yang up, and he slapped himself.

"Oh right, their last names are related, and the woman specifically emphasized her last name before she died."

"So, the surname is the key evidence provided to us by the rule mission!"

The more Chu Yang spoke, the more excited he became, and the clearer his mind became.

"Be bold! Qin Lan is Qin Yu's mother, and Wu Gang is Wu Hua's father!"

Ye Wuyou nodded and said excitedly, "Wu Gang had a child who died shortly after birth. Did he really die?"

"And there's this little girl named Wu Hua who grew up in an orphanage. Go and ask the police to check if Wu Hua came from the hospital."

The team leader knew the seriousness of the matter and immediately arranged for someone to investigate.

As a result of special measures, we received the news immediately.

"Yes, Wu Hua was sent to the orphanage by the hospital."

"That's right. In the rules mission, here, Wu Hua must be Wu Gang's daughter, and Qin Yu must be Qin Lan's daughter."

"Qin Yu's accidental death is quite strange. It's most likely that he was killed by Wu Gang in revenge."

"Then Qin Lan came to seek revenge, to avenge her daughter."

Ye Wuyou said quickly.

After hearing this, Chu Yang suddenly had an idea and looked towards the door.

The clues in my mind were reorganized and all the clues were connected.

"I know, I know the details of the murder!" Chu Yang said heavily.
