Chapter 106
When the two arrived at the gate of the tulou, several auxiliary police officers at the scene and Xiao Liu from the township police station were sitting in the police car in the courtyard resting.

Xiao Liu had received a notice from Ma Baoguo before, and wanted to wait for Zhu Chunguang and others at the scene.

But after waiting for an hour, I didn't see anyone, and my tired legs were numb.

Now when Xiao Liu saw Zhu Chunguang and Li Tianque approaching, Xiao Liu immediately got off the car and extended his hand to Zhu Chunguang enthusiastically.

"Hey, Brother Zhu! You've come, this time we can rest assured that this time even the civet cat can solve the case for the prince!"

"You're poor, how's the on-site reconnaissance going?" Zhu Chunguang asked.

"Leader, don't worry, we have carefully inspected the scene several times, and judging from the traces at the scene, the deceased should have been strangled to death.

However, the murderer did not directly attack.

The murderer probably put an elastic nylon rope around the neck of the deceased Lodi Chaolu, and then tied a heavy object under the nylon rope.

The murderer pushed down a heavy object through a long pole in the room next door to Dolma, pulled the rope and tightened it, and finally killed Lodi Chaolu. "

Zhu Chunguang listened carefully to Xiao Liu's introduction, and looked up and down the earth building with weird graffiti.

"Brother Zhu, you should go up with me to have a look first, the murderer's actions don't seem to be just for killing people."

"Oh? Not just for killing people?"

Zhu Chunguang was obviously more interested.

In this way, Li Tianque and Zhu Chunguang followed Xiao Liu and came to the scene of the crime again.

Li Tianque had seen this horrible death scene with his own eyes, so he was naturally mentally prepared.

But although Zhu Chunguang is also an old criminal policeman, after all, this is a remote area, and it is difficult for the county to come into contact with several homicide cases throughout the year. Obviously, he did not expect the death of the deceased to be so terrifying.
The expression on Zhu Chunguang's face was a little surprised, but he soon understood why Xiao Liu said that the murderer might not just kill people.

The morning light reflected on the corpse of the old patriarch, forming a shadow covering the whole body.

"What's stuck in his head?" Zhu Chunguang asked.

"Spike Fang."

Zhu Chunguang frowned slightly, approached the corpse slowly, and asked Li Tianque:

"When the old patriarch died...were you there?"

"Well, I was still downstairs, and I saw the murderer, short and short, probably wearing a mask." Li Tianque said.

"How tall is short? Are there any obvious signs?"

"Judging from the height of the window sill next door, it should be about 1.6 meters. It looks like Grandma Zhuoma. As for the features...it's too dark to see clearly. The face looks like a black man covered with grease, a little old, with a very big smile. Exaggeration." Li Tianque said truthfully.

Zhu Chunguang frowned and thought, and then continued to investigate the scene.

He was very interested in the wolf teeth on the head of the old patriarch. After looking carefully, he checked other wolf-related ornaments in the house.

But the result disappointed him, and he didn't connect the old patriarch's death with that insect.

In the following on-site investigation, Zhu Chunguang did not get any more clues, and he had no objection to the method of death and the murderer's method of killing.

So, Zhu Chunguang and Li Tianque came to the next room and began to conduct a detailed search of Grandma Zhuoma's room.

Last time, Li Tianque didn't stay in this room for too long because he was anxious to catch that black-faced weirdo.

When he came in to check again this time, Li Tianque found that Grandma Zhuoma's life seemed to be very delicate.

Everything in Grandma Zhuoma's house is well-organized. The cups, bowls and chopsticks are all in order, and even the hanging belt under the knitted thread cover on the outside of the sofa is very neatly combed.

However, in such a tidy room, there is one place that seems a bit messy and very abrupt.

This place is the table enshrining the black beetle that Li Tianque had checked before.

The things placed on the table are in a mess, and all of them have been pushed to the innermost edge of the table.

Judging from the state of the table, Dolma must have been a little anxious when he left, so he pushed all the things on the table inside.

Li Tianque flipped through the miscellaneous items on the inside of the table. There were small carving knives, pendant accessories, some spells written in Kang language, and some wooden blocks carved with strange patterns, and some paint.

Li Tianque picked up one of the wooden blocks and found that the pattern on it was very familiar.

Soon, Li Tianque remembered.

The pattern on the wooden block turned out to be the strange black face he saw on the window sill last night.

And the reason why this strange face made him feel a little familiar was because Professor Lu Zuzhi once wore a mask with a similar pattern!

That should be a weird worm face.

The wrinkles on the face are actually the lines on the face of insects.

The overall shape of this worm's face is somewhat heart-shaped, wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, mottled with dense textures, and the two dark oval eyeballs are round and bright, which is breathtaking.

Li Tianque was looking at this piece of wood in a daze, Zhu Chunguang patted him on the shoulder and said:
"What's wrong? What did you find?"

Only then did Li Tianque recover, and handed the wooden block in his hand to Zhu Chunguang, saying:
"The pattern on this wooden block is the same as the mask I saw the murderer wearing last night."

"Oh? So, Zhuoma, a wizard, must have been doing some weird ritual last night." Zhu Chunguang speculated.

"Well, maybe that's the case, but that's not the point. Not only did the people in the room wear this mask last night, but other people also wore this mask!" Li Tianque said.

"Oh? Who is it?" Zhu Chunguang raised his eyebrows, obviously interested in this question.

"It's the leader of the scientific research team, Professor Lu Zuzhi." Li Tianque said.

Zhu Chunguang frowned slightly, swallowed and said:

"You mean... the genius doctor?"

"Well, it's him."

"That's interesting, let's ask him." Zhu Chunguang said.

"and many more……"

When Li Tianque was talking to Zhu Chunguang, he suddenly noticed something strange about the black beetle in the glass jar.

Last night, the black beetle looked more active. Although it couldn't be as lively as the wild insects outside, at least it looked relatively healthy.

But now, the black beetle in the glass tank not only broke free from the infusion tube inserted on its body, but also struggled and curled up in a corner of the glass tank, looking a little wimpy.

At this time, beside the black beetle's huge upper jaw, there are still piles of gray confetti-like objects, which should be mixed in the soil to maintain soil permeability.

"What's wrong?" Zhu Chunguang asked in surprise.

"There's something wrong with this big beetle," Li Tianque said.

"It's really not right. It's the first time I've seen such a big bug. No wonder the old wizard confessed to it. It's a bit of an air to say it's a bug god." Zhu Chunguang said.

At this time, Xiao Liu also came in, and seeing the two of them looking at the big black worm attentively, he immediately said:
"This big beetle is really big. When Liang Zhichao went upstairs with us last night, he also looked at this beetle for a long time and took several photos."

"Take pictures? You guys want to go back to the furnace? How did you protect the scene!" Zhu Chunguang suddenly snapped.

"Uh... I thought he was doing research, and this wasn't the first scene, so I didn't think too much... Captain Li, I was wrong, I was wrong..." Xiao Liu immediately became a little nervous.

Li Tianque heard that they mentioned Liang Zhichao, and immediately asked:

"Where is Liang Zhichao now?"

"He...he should have returned to the hotel by now, this guy was too much trouble last night." Xiao Liu said.

"Call him and ask him to come over." Li Tianque ordered.

Xiao Liu raised his eyebrows, obviously dissatisfied with this guy who was a suspect the day before yesterday and now became a commander.

However, since Zhu Chunguang was by the side, it was not easy to have a fit, so I had to say angrily:
"Okay, big detective, let me give it a try. I guess he hasn't woken up at this point."

Xiao Liu dialed the phone, and Liang Zhichao's voice was a little tired, but he still said he would come right away.

In addition to Liang Zhichao, Su Wei and Bai Ruixue also expressed that they would come with them.

Obviously, these insect fans should have heard that Liang Zhichao saw the big black beetle at Grandma Zhuoma's house yesterday, so now they can't help but want to see it immediately.

Naturally, Li Tianque did not refuse, and he was about to talk to the scientific research team again to see if he could extract more valuable clues.
