Chapter 312: Bound Prometheus
-- This evil spirit, or "demon", is a very difficult character, and it is a bit surprising that it suddenly appears at this time, which almost never appears.
"I feel a strange aura from the thing called 'photo' in your hand, I see, it's been such a thing!"
The young girl dressed in a kimono is just an illusory shadow, and probably no one can see it except herself.
That is to say...... You know what to do? ”
"No, it should be said that with you, you can't get any useful information from these things alone, the only thing that can be confirmed ......"
As if she felt interesting, she was not as childish as she looked, and looked at Feng Han with cold eyes.
"This is indeed a ritual process, although the details are a little subtle, but you can feel the abnormal atmosphere!"
"Atmosphere?"
Feng Han was very puzzled, as far as he knew...... There's no such thing as "magic" in the real world, what the hell is this guy talking about.
"Be careful, thou, this is some kind of artifact, and if you dig too deep, you will inevitably run into Phlegyas......"
After saying this, the red evil spirit disappeared without a trace.
- Phlegyas is supposed to be the ferryman on the River Styx in Greek mythology, Styx is not only one of the four great rivers of Styx, but also the river of oaths of the gods, and Phlegias is the son of the god of war Ares and the king of Thessaly, he was punished by the gods for burning the temple of the sun god, and became the ferryman on the River Styx after his death.
What exactly does the red evil spirit mean in this sentence?
Feng Han couldn't come up with anything for a while, and suddenly, his mobile phone rang, this was a call from Shang Xiuheng.
"Han Shao, I was notified just now that the fifth deceased appeared ......"
"Where?"
Feng Han was stunned, he didn't expect it to come so soon, he and Shang Xiuheng analyzed the murderer's murder process, originally thought that he would not create the fifth case so quickly, but he didn't expect the other party's speed to speed up.
"In such a hurry to complete his ritual, this guy probably sensed that the police were already eyeing him."
"However, he hasn't been caught by us yet, so at this point in time, he should take his time and avoid the limelight, right?"
'It's your consideration, not his's consideration, his goal has always been strong and he has never gone wrong, and that is...... Complete his ritual! ”
Feng Han clearly pointed out this point, he thought that the murderer could ignore Qiē in order to complete the ritual, at least for now, he was already speeding up for the completion of the ritual.
"Sue me the location, I'll take a ride directly to ......" Feng Han got out of the car, and he chose to take a taxi directly to the place where the incident occurred.
"It should have been cordoned off there, you can't get in like this!"
Shang Xiuheng hesitated, as far as he knew, that area had been sealed off.
"Sneaking in isn't a problem!" After a little inquiry into the location of the murder, Feng Han had an idea in his heart.
He quickly took a taxi to a nearby residential building outside the scene of the incident.
"It's definitely not okay to go in directly, let's take a long detour!"
The place where the incident occurred was an office building, and now the lower floor has been blocked by the police, presumably to beware of some media and reporters, Feng Han knew that it was impossible to get through from below, and he could only find a way to jump over from another residential building.
Feng Han first climbed three floors, then jumped from the escalator to the drainage pipe, and then climbed onto a resident's household air conditioning box, even if he was now on the reality side, his skills were also very agile, he climbed up to the opposite floor from a distance of four meters.
He took a deep breath and stepped on the edge of the corner, moving little by little, then opened the window on one side and tried to get in. There was no one in this building anymore, except for some people left behind, Feng Han walked cautiously, avoiding the guards, and secretly approached the scene of the crime.
…… The scene of the crime was in an empty conference room, and yes, there was a corpse in it, a body that had been hung upside down from a fan.
Feng Han looked around, but didn't notice that someone was coming, and hurriedly walked over to check the corpse.
"Is there any meaning in deliberately hanging the dead upside down?"
He took a closer look at the corpse and found that the deceased's left eye had been gouged out and a black mandolin had been placed inside. Not only that, there was a cut in the liver of the deceased, but there was a stitched needle hole on the outside, and it is estimated that the internal organs were also removed.
"The fatal wound was a cut in the neck, and the blood in the body was drained......"
Feng Han squatted down, and he noticed that the deceased's face was somewhat familiar.
This woman, I have a memory!
He searched in his mind and quickly came to the conclusion that yes, he had the impression that this woman should be Xia Ru's classmate, and they had met on Christmas Eve.
"When was she killed, just looking at the corpse spots on the corpse, it should have been a few days......"
Now that the weather is cold, the corpse will naturally not decompose too quickly, so it is impossible to determine the exact time of death on the face of it, but one thing can be guessed, that is, the time of death should have been a few days ago.
…… You can inquire about the deceased from Xia Ru and investigate when she was abducted by the murderer, and it may be possible to find out the identity of the other party based on these circumstances.
"I hope you can rest in peace soon, I will find a way to find out the truth and let the prisoner who killed you be punished!"
Feng Han found that the deceased had one eye wide open, obviously not blinding, she still had a good life to enjoy, so she would have expected to encounter such a tragic event......
His gloved hand was about to help Ye Qiuyu close his eyes, but he heard a sound of footsteps outside the door.
(Is anyone coming?) )
Feng Han frowned, he quickly moved to the position of the window, then flipped over and hid in the position of the window.
Soon, a group of people walked in, including Shang Xiuheng and forensic doctor Shu Caiping, as well as some other police officers, led by the captain of the police force, Sun Che, who was about forty years old and in his early forties, he was Shang Xiuheng's boss, he had a cold face, a pair of eyes were very deep, and there was a very manly beard on his face.
"Professor Luo, what do you think about this......
He asked a man next to him.
"You asked an art teacher to come here and ask me what I think!" The man named "Professor Luo" helplessly lowered his forehead, he swept the conference room, touched the corners of his mouth, and then said slowly: "This is hanging the dead upside down, which makes people can't help but think of "Bound Prometheus"
……”
"Prometheus Bound?" Sun Che stared at him with a puzzled expression.
"The works of the ancient Greek tragedy writer Aeschylus are often used as the subject of painting, and I guess the murderer you are looking for has a good knowledge of this aspect, and Titian painted this type of work."
