Bewitching

The person in the photo is very fat, and his facial features are not refined enough. It is completely different from the previous picture of Ms. Lu in a dress.

Meng Xi really couldn't think of any other words, and finally he could only say dryly, "The effect of losing weight is good."

"Not just losing weight, she has moved her whole body." Ji Xingchen tapped his fingers between the eyebrows of the girl in the photo, "Look carefully, she has opened the corners of her eyes, her nose has been enlarged, and there have been changes here... It can be said, from top to bottom Basically all of them have been remodeled, but the remodeling is very successful, there is no artificial trace at all, just like pure natural."

Hearing this, Meng Xi took the phone and looked carefully again, and found that Ms. Lu was indeed quite different from those internet celebrities, her appearance was more real and she had her own characteristics.

He was comparing and researching the two photos, the phone in his hand vibrated a few times, and Chen Song's name suddenly popped up on the screen.

Meng Xi was taken aback, quickly handed him the phone, and said nervously, "My, my uncle's phone number!"

Ji Xingchen saw him flustered like a rabbit, he was amused for a while, and suddenly remembered the dream he had not long ago.The fox-like little guy in the dream, with the pair of long ears on its head, I don’t know what it would look like if it were placed on Meng Xi’s head...

It should be cute!

With a smile in his eyes, he answered the phone under the horrified gaze of the other party.

Meng Qian didn't notice his ulterior motive at all, and listened intently with his ears on the side, for fear that his uncle would find out something and report back to her mother.

He didn't say he was afraid of Chen Song, the key was that the shadow of his childhood was really scary.I think he was born as a mortal inexplicably back then, so weak and helpless. At the age of 5, Yaodan still didn't respond at all. Not to mention suffering from illness all day long, he ran into Chen Song 'savagely' taking off Xiaoxiao's pants and spanking in front of them.The scene was too terrifying and violent, which made him tremble with fear that it would be his turn next time.After all, he had no power to resist at that time. Even though his uncle treated him well and loved him, the shadow of his childhood was deeply engraved in his mind and could not go away.So for a long time, he ran away when he saw Chen Song, for fear that this black-faced uncle would take off his pants and spank his ass.

After all, he is also a big demon, even if he fails to cross the tribulation, he is still very dignified!

After listening to Chen Song's words, Ji Xingchen's face gradually became solemn, "I see, I want to see the corpse. The first two only have photos and inspection records, and there are many things that cannot be verified."

There was silence on the phone for a while, and finally agreed to him.

When Ji Xingchen hung up the phone, Meng Qiang asked quickly, "How is it? The third victim was also eaten? Is there any mark on his body?"

"No, it's skinning."

Meng Xi exclaimed, "Skinning?"

Ji Xingchen nodded, "The limbs are intact, without any signs of eating, but the face has been peeled."

Meng Xi froze there for a moment, peeling?The starving ghost will only eat food whole, and will not peel it at all.

"I was just wondering if we were preconceived. We came back from Ms. Lu and saw a starving ghost, and then there were two people-eating incidents in the imperial capital, so we directly substituted it."

"But the 'blood pact' of the starving ghost on the body of the second Internet celebrity is the same as that of Miss Lu, these two marks should not be wrong..."

Ji Xingchen interrupted him, "But the second imprint is not complete, only half, and there is no imprint on the female corpse in the outskirts for the time being. One more thing, I thought about it carefully, the starved ghost is the way of the hungry ghost. The aura shouldn't be so heavy, but in that room, the ghost aura is thick and gloomy, unlike ordinary little ghosts..."

Meng Xi patted his cheeks with both hands, and said with a headache, "My IQ seems to be insufficient. Have you guessed something? Don't go around in circles, tell me now!"

Ji Xingchen glanced at the phone and stood up, "Your uncle didn't let me see the two corpses, so many things are ambiguous. But I do have a vague idea in my heart, maybe your guess is not all wrong... let's go Come on, I'll take you home first."

"Didn't you ask my uncle to look at the corpse?" Meng Xi recalled what he had just said to Chen Song, and looked up at him, "I'll go there with you. This happened one after another. If you can't find the source of this thing again, I'm afraid there will be more deaths."

Ji Xingchen nodded, "Alright, I'll talk to your uncle."

Chen Song stood outside the house and smoked one puff at a time, the director's roar just now was still echoing in his ears.

What will the media who are afraid of chaos say.At that time, after all their exaggerations, it is easy to incite the masses and cause panic...

Xiao Liu stretched out his hand and waved the choking cloud of smoke, and coughed, "Captain, don't get angry, you haven't seen such a big storm. Back then, you single-handedly solved the 713 rainy night serial murder case that caused a sensation all over the country. This Come on, you are not yourself, there are us people following you behind, this pervert will definitely be caught!"

Chen Song's fingers trembled, and he glanced at him with a vague expression, "What's the matter?"

"Ah, the captain, Section Chief Li said that he wanted to transport the corpse back to the forensic center. But you just refused to let me go, so why don't I come here and ask you?"

"Wait a little longer, tell Lao Li to go downstairs to eat something, and take the body away in half an hour." After he finished speaking, he glanced at his phone, then took two more savage puffs, and finally put the cigarette butt away. Throwing the trash can aside, hurried downstairs.

After Meng Xi arrived at the community, he followed Ji Xingchen step by step.

Several police cars were parked downstairs in the community. The victim lived on the first floor, and the police were downstairs to check the identities of people entering and leaving.

He saw his uncle right away in the crowd.Chen Song was exhausted a lot in the past two days, and his complexion was also ugly, but when he saw him, his complexion was even uglier.

"What are you doing here?"

Meng Kui whispered, "I, I'm coming..."

Standing between the two of them, Ji Xingchen explained, "I asked him to come. Captain Chen, you should be aware of the viciousness and harmfulness of this case. If the case is not solved, people will die in the imperial capital."

"That's right, uncle, I'm really fine. You can see how good my health has been over the past few years, and I rarely get sick. My serious illness was not caused by 'psychic'. Yes." Meng Xi carefully explained on the side, but he didn't dare to say that he was greedy for the essence of the thousand-year-old locust tree on the female ghost, and accidentally ate too much.

Chen Song frowned, with hesitation on his face, but he still didn't let go.

"Team Chen, I have a piece of ancestral peace jade here, which can drive away evil spirits and avoid evil. I survived catastrophe back then, and I have been dealing with supernatural things frequently all these years. It is because of its protection. I will give him to Meng. Xi, let him wear it, do you think it's okay?"

Naturally, Meng Kui knew the importance of this jade, and repeatedly waved his hands to say no, but Ji Xingchen put it on his neck without saying a word.

"Okay!" Chen Song squinted at the two of them, took out a cigarette from his pocket and wanted to light it, but thinking that Meng Xi was still by his side in case he would cough, he could only chew on it to satisfy his hunger.

"If your peace jade is really so useful, I'll borrow it from Aji and give it to you later. Because of his premature birth, his bones have always been weak."

After he finished speaking, he rummaged in his pocket for a long time, finally found the medical mask that Section Chief Li had just given him, and stuffed it directly into Meng Qiang's hand.

"The corpse is a bit disgusting. Put on your mask. If you really can't take it anymore, just..." He said this, and suddenly remembered how innocently Meng Xi described to him in the taxi that the victim was separated after death when he was 8 years old. The scene of the dead body suddenly choked there, but he didn't say the last sentence after all.

Seeing his ugly look, Meng Qian didn't dare to provoke him, obediently unwrapped the mask and put it on.

The two followed him in, and Ji Xingchen asked aloud, "Has the identity of the deceased been confirmed?"

"Confirmed, her name is Zhang Ya, 26 years old. Not long ago there was a popular talent show, you young people should have the impression that she signed the contract with the first place..." Chen Song glanced at Meng Xi who was on the side, seeing Both of them watched him wait for the next sentence, and said coldly: "I signed a contract with Chaowen Entertainment Company."

Ji Xingchen frowned, glanced at Meng Xi from the corner of his eye and found that he didn't respond.

He knew a lot about Meng Xi's life experience, and he asked someone to check it out after the two met for the first time in the second criminal shop.At that time, I was afraid that this guy would approach him with ulterior motives, but now it's better to change it to me to approach him with ulterior motives!

"Zhang Ya? I seem to have a little impression. At that time, netizens joked that she was older than the interns in the draft at the same time. But she is really good-looking, and she surprised the audience as soon as she appeared, so she was selected in the preliminary round. .I watched that show with my mother, and it looks really good."

Ji Xingchen squinted at him upon hearing this.

"It doesn't matter whether it looks good or not, and there is no face left after death." Chen Song took out the tattered cigarette he was biting in his mouth, with a sullen expression on his face.

There was a smell of rancid corpses, and he looked worriedly at his frail nephew.I found that this guy didn't even wrinkle his eyebrows, and was staring at the corpse on the ground without blinking.

"Uncle, find someone to tear off the clothes on her lower back, there should be a red thing like a tattoo."

Hearing this, Chen Song put on the gloves and took a step forward to slightly tear off the hem of the corpse's clothes. As he said, there was a mark on it.

"What is this? A tattoo? It doesn't look like..."

"No, it's the 'Blood Pact'. It's a mark left after people and ghosts sign something similar to a contract. It's very binding." Meng Qian bent down and looked, and found that Zhang Ya's 'Blood Pact' was six ways. The totem of reincarnation, but inside is not a volcano but a white bone.

He suddenly realized, staring straight at the bloody and skinless face.

Chen Song felt that his nephew had a strong taste, so he coughed a few times and reminded him, "Is there something wrong?"

"The contract is concluded, the human skin is sacrificed, and the evil ghost is reincarnated."

Xiao Liu, who secretly followed out of curiosity, was stunned, and looked at him inexplicably: "What contract are you talking about? What was sacrificed? Dude, you are more mysterious than me! At best, I am talking about the loss of the end of the world. You even reincarnated evil spirits." It's all out!"

"To shut up!"

Chen Song glared at him, Xiao Liu closed his mouth awkwardly, shrank to the side and did not leave.

"Have you heard the story of the painted skin? There are records of this story in Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio and the Tang Dynasty Niu Sengru's "Xuanguailu". It is probably an evil spirit who put on the skin of a beautiful woman and confuses others. The story is similar, The ghosts wearing that pair of skins have a beautiful appearance, and they are all over the country. In fact, the prototype of this evil spirit is the evil spirits in the skinning hell in the hell way. Because they did evil in life, they were sent to the skinning hell after death. Immortal, undying, bear these evil consequences day after day, cannot be reincarnated, cannot be reincarnated. However, if someone voluntarily donates their skin to them, they can re-enter the samsara and be liberated.”

Xiao Liu couldn't help complaining, "Who would voluntarily have someone skinned! Is she crazy?"

"She's crazy."

After Meng Xi finished speaking, he gave Ji Xingchen a look, and the other party closed the bedroom door clearly, leaving only them in the room, Chen Song and Xiao Liu.

Meng Xi lightly tapped Zhao Ya's face with his fingers, and saw an ordinary and rough face suddenly appearing on the bloody face, which was completely different from the face that was sought after by many netizens as a fairy face.

Xiao Liu stammered: "Fuck, gods and gods are showing their spirits!"

Chen Song was also stunned. Originally, he only thought that his nephew would have psychic abilities, but he didn't expect to have such supernatural powers.

"It's not the appearance of gods, but temporarily opened the yin and yang eyes for you. After death, the three souls return to their positions, and they will show the real body in the shape of a soul. Whether plastic surgery or disfigurement in life, the state of the soul will show the real side. Unfortunately, she even the soul of the sky. It's gone too!" As soon as the words fell, the so-called Heavenly Soul twisted and deformed, and finally turned into smoke, and Zhang Ya returned to a bloody appearance again.

"That face is Zhang Ya's real face, but in order to put on a peerless and beautiful fake face, she voluntarily signed a contract with the evil spirit of the skinning hell. After the agreement is reached, the evil spirit will be reincarnated through her skin. If my guess is correct, both the net red female corpse and the female corpse in the suburbs were reincarnated by the evil ghosts who signed the agreement because of the agreement!"

Xiao Liu leaned over and asked cautiously, "The same is true for the two in front? The ones in the suburbs have their limbs gnawed, and the ones who are Internet celebrities..."

"I don't know if the first one doesn't have a 'blood mark', but the second one should be some kind of agreement the starving ghost signed with her in order to get rid of the evil ghost way."

Chen Song took his words, and analyzed: "She is an anchor with a big stomach. Nowadays, netizens are very picky, and no one will watch fake food, so...she should want to become a real big stomach king... ..."

Xiao Liu yelled 'Ah' and interrupted Chen Song, "Captain, what did I say? Let me say that no one did it! You still don't believe it..."

He spoke with righteous indignation, caught a glimpse of Chen Song's cold gaze from the corner of his eye, chuckled suddenly, and said in embarrassment: "It's normal not to believe me, but you have to believe Master's words!"

Chen Song was overwhelmed by his quarrel, and stared at him with a distorted expression, "How do you write the report? Could it be possible to tell the director that this case was not done by a human, and that the evil spirit was reincarnated after peeling off its skin. We want to arrest people Have to go to the delivery room to guard? The problem is that I don't know who he is after reincarnation!"

After he finished speaking, he frowned, "Wait, if it's what you said, this case will never end. The ghost knows how many people in the imperial capital signed some 'blood contracts' with those ghosts. No, we must find the source , stop him!"

"The source?" Meng Xi thought for a while, and said thoughtfully, "Look if there was any intersection between them before they were alive, or someone..."

"Check this beauty salon." Ji Xingchen handed the phone to Chen Song.

Xiao Liu stepped on his feet and took a sneak peek, looking at the wide variety of beauty items and prices on it, a little startled.

"San Dao Beauty Salon? What the hell is that name... Damn, it's so expensive? A facial scraping and anti-aging treatment is worth two months' salary!"

Meng Xi remembered what the two said in the coffee shop, and looked at him suspiciously, "Is this your guess?"

"A few days ago, I asked someone to check Miss Lu and the first victim, and found that both of them were diamond members of this beauty salon. Miss Lu's face was also slightly adjusted in this beauty salon. As for the Internet celebrity , I checked with someone in the afternoon, and she seems to have been to this store frequently."

When Chen Song heard this, he immediately shouted: "Xiao Liu, find someone to investigate this beauty salon immediately!"

"Yes, Captain!"

"Wait a minute, Uncle, since the shop owner has a connection with the three evil ways, it must not be easy. If you alarm him, he may startle the snake."

Chen Song frowned, "Then what should I do?"

"I'll go, I can pretend to be a customer to consult and take the opportunity to find out about the situation."

Chen Song and Ji Xingchen directly refused, "No!"

Meng Xi was puzzled for a moment, "Why? Nothing will happen to me, don't worry..."

"It's not a master, you go to the beauty salon with such a fairy appearance, who will believe it!" Xiao Liu couldn't help but finished, and turned to look at Chen Song, "It's about the same as our captain. At least it can be said Come and buy white for the whole body, or open the corner of the eye!"
