There's something wrong with me

Chapter 64 Weird Old Zhang? (6.7K)

"Becoming an immortal? Lao Zhang, you mean this murderer? Is he practicing now? Is he ascending to heaven?"

After Zhang Feng said this, everyone understood.

So this wasn't murder, but some kind of premeditated act of using "qi" to ascend to heaven?
As they thought about it and looked at this strange corpse, even though it was the hot summer day of August, they felt a chill down to their backs and broke out in a cold sweat.

"Zhang Feng." Captain Wang's palms were sweating as he listened, but he also looked at Zhang Feng seriously, "Are you sure you're not kidding? You're considered half a veteran in our team, and you're telling me about supernatural things now?

Why haven't I heard you say before that you know these tricks?"

"You never asked before." Zhang Feng was telling the truth. As far as he could remember, he and Captain Wang had very few private chats.

If we weren't good friends, we wouldn't necessarily talk about this.

"Is this fake?"

At the same time, the others also felt a chilling wind blowing through the factory.

It feels like listening to ghost stories when I was a child.

Especially since there was a corpse with a strange death appearance next to it.

"Will he jump?" a young police officer went to the perimeter.

"Xiu Xian is definitely fake." Zhang Feng shook his head and ignored the suspicious looks of the people around him, "I just followed his thoughts and told him what he might do.

Only the previous speculation can perfectly match the current on-site signs."

Zhang Feng walked to the incense ash,
"Besides making people feel sick, the black dust incense also theoretically has some kind of energy-gathering effect.

In his opinion, it might be necessary to gather energy and borrow energy.

But it could also be that the incense ashes were left there intentionally to make us confused and delay the investigation."

"It's definitely time to delay." Captain Wang rubbed his temples. "I've been feeling nauseous the whole time. Young people, for example, can't handle it even more."

"Me too." The old detectives around were not much better.

But some of them are currently training apprentices, and they can’t just run out and vent like the youngsters.

Then does this master still want to save face?
"According to your statement," Captain Wang, who was more concerned about the case, asked Zhang Feng, "Can you use these talismans and the scene to deduce more about the murderer's psychological profile?"

"It's hard to guess this kind of person." Zhang Feng said bluntly, "Because I can only guess what his motive is.

As for whether my speculation is correct, although it may not sound nice, it does depend on his next method of committing a crime.

If it is based on the other 'Four Swords and Four Qi' methods, then he is indeed gathering Qi.

If this is true, he is truly practicing.

Psychologically, he might be a 'truth seeker' who doesn't care about worldly opinions or human lives."

When Zhang Feng thought of this person, he felt a little bit of anticipation.

Although cultivating immortals is fake, Zhang Feng speculated through these things that this person had some insights into the "five elements of internal organs".

Maybe there will be related training methods.

Otherwise he would never go through so much trouble.

Of course, he could also be messing around and finding it quite amusing.

It is even harder to guess what this kind of person is thinking.

"Seeker? You mean..." Captain Wang was concerned about something else. "If the murderer is gathering energy, then at some point in the future, four more victims will appear one after another?"

"Yeah." Zhang Feng nodded and looked at the corpse again.

If all the people who die are like this, then they die.

It would be a good thing if we could lure that person out.

"How can we prevent this?" another detective asked, "Can we identify the next victim in advance?"

"I can't lock it." Zhang Feng looked at him, then took one last look at the corpse. "I've read some of the I Ching, and I've also heard Xiao Li talk about this person's basic information and birthday.

Although the exact time of birth is unknown, the true solar time is also unknown.

But according to the previous birth date alone, this person has no connection with heart fire at all.

So the other party is very likely to be killing indiscriminately."

"It's a big hidden danger." Captain Wang nodded heavily, then forced himself to be alert and prepare to continue collecting evidence before buying the medicine.

Zhang Feng was also busy helping out.

However, all the cameras near the factory are broken, which is not good news.

But in the subsequent collection.

Captain Wang and others successively found fingerprints of suspected criminal suspects on the wooden sword.

Fingerprint, burn it first.

Then, the wooden sword was sent to the city bureau to see if the relevant personnel could collect biological information (DNA) from it.

Human skin constantly secretes oily substances, which leave these behind.

……

the next day.

Everyone inside and outside the factory, unless they had an alibi at the time, was questioned and their fingerprints were taken.

Captain Wang and others planned to first check the people around the victim to see if they could find the "murderer".

The victim's social relationships were also contacted and investigated by Captain Wang and his team.

But perhaps Zhang Feng understood some Taoist concepts, which helped in the psychological profiling of the suspect.

Then the bureau made an exception and asked Zhang Feng for his opinion, asking whether Zhang Feng could serve as a consultant and follow the case.

Zhang Feng naturally followed.

On this day, because the case was serious, difficult and complicated, and was reported by the media that day, it had a huge impact outside.

8.03 Special task force established.

Zhang Feng immediately received assistance for the major case of the 'First Enhanced Selection'.

Zhang Feng is happy.

Then, I was busy like this for two days in a row.

Zhang Feng was unhappy.

Because of limited police and human resources, we have to try our best to pass through in one go.

In Captain Wang's words, 'After questioning one person, don't come back and ask again. If someone you've questioned asks again, then get out of this case!'

Just because of Captain Wang’s words.

Everyone is so exhausted with such a rigorous attitude.

Zhang Feng and Captain Wang were also busy, just like everyone else.

During this trip, I asked questions to nearly dozens of people.

Finally, there is confirmation and verification, fingerprint collection, and biometric information collection.

In two days, I only slept for less than three hours.

Until nine o'clock that evening.

At the door of an office in the bureau.

The last person was checked and basically ruled out as a suspect, but relevant information was also left behind.

And this moment.

In a slightly larger office.

Zhang Feng leaned back in his chair, looking at the misty clouds in the room.

Captain Wang and several other police officers stared at each other, and the dustpan they were using to sweep up the garbage was half full of cigarette butts.

"Ahh..." Some people lean against their desks and, if they relax a little, they want to fall asleep.

"Fuck it!" Some people lost their temper because they couldn't sleep well. They weren't cursing at anyone, but were just upset about a case, and suddenly wanted to curse to vent their frustration.

"It's not a good thing to hold on like this." Zhang Feng was also very tired and found that investigating cases was more tiring than practicing martial arts.

Investigating a case is both mentally and physically exhausting.

But when you practice martial arts, you feel physically tired but mentally refreshed.

"This can be considered as experiencing a different kind of mental pressure." Zhang Feng found joy in the midst of hardship and regarded this experience as a form of self-cultivation.

"Old Zhang is right. This is really not a good thing."

At this moment, Captain Wang was sitting at his desk, with a cigarette butt in his mouth, almost sucking on the filter.

He hadn't said anything before, just smoking and staying there.

Now, the long cigarette ash fell down as he spoke.

Some people followed suit and watched it. They didn’t know why, but they just followed suit.

Everyone's mind was a little dazed.

"Let's all go back and rest." Captain Wang suddenly said this.

"Go back?" Everyone looked happy at first, just like students hearing 'holiday'.

But I'm not very happy either because there has been no progress in the case so far.

I checked all the fingerprints, but none of them matched.

"Then I'll go back first." Zhang Feng was very efficient and left immediately. "Shall I talk to the colleagues in the other rooms and ask them to go back as well?"

"Yeah." Captain Wang just nodded, but did not move, because if he moved a little, his whole body would be sore.

"Captain, slow down." The apprentice next to him wanted to support him.

"Okay." Usually, Captain Wang would retreat with a slap, acting like he was still young, but now he was too lazy to even push the person away, so he had to be carried away from the table.

"That's right, Lao Zhang!"

Captain Wang suddenly thought of something and shouted to Zhang Feng, who had just left, "Notice one more thing. We'll have a small meeting tomorrow morning and decide..."

He looked at his watch and said, "It's nine o'clock now. Colleagues who live far away can stay at the bureau for the time being and go to bed at ten o'clock.

One, two, three... eight o'clock, ten hours!

Let's gather at 8 o'clock tomorrow to have a small meeting and summarize."

"it is good."

……

the next day.

morning.

For the first time, Zhang Feng discovered that waking up naturally from a nap was such a good thing.

Then I looked at the watch again, it was half past seven.

"Dry!"

……

Seven fifty.

Zhang Feng arrived at the meeting room ten minutes early.

"Brother Zhang is here."

"Lao Zhang, how did you sleep?"

"Come, sit here."

Everyone in the room greeted Zhang Feng.

After two days of sleepless fighting.

Although Zhang Feng is still a half-colleague, his hard-working attitude makes the police officers regard Zhang Feng as a true comrade.

In their previous memories, Zhang Feng was just a good friend.

Because 'Yuan Zhang Feng' is a bit lazy in doing things.

The execution is not high.

But now, it’s sky-high.

"Okay." Zhang Fengye smiled and waved to everyone, then sat next to Captain Wang.

This meeting was Captain Wang's, and he was the leader.

"Now that Lao Zhang is here, shall we start the meeting?" Captain Wang looked at everyone.

At this time, Zhang Feng looked around and found that he was indeed the last one to arrive.

"Sorry." After two days of personal contact, Zhang Feng also liked dealing with these colleagues with super execution ability. He didn't want his friends to think that he was showing off and being late on purpose.

"I was so sleepy that I came late."

"No, no." Captain Wang shook his head. "Our sleep and rest schedules are irregular to begin with. We can turn them upside down at any time. But you're different. You've been up for two days now. It's impossible for you to sleep at all."

"Right." The police officer driving the car said to Zhang Feng, who was sitting above him. "Besides, you're not late. We're used to being fifteen minutes early."

"My apprentice is right," an old police officer said, holding a teacup. "You've never attended our meetings before, and we haven't told you about them. If you want to blame someone, it's Captain Wang. He told you about the meeting, but he didn't explain it clearly, and he was sloppy in his approach."

"Well, it's my fault." Captain Wang faced the criticism from the old members of the team and did not deny his fault. "I was really too tired yesterday and forgot to tell Lao Zhang."

Captain Wang pointed to the phone in his pocket and explained, "I remembered it after I got home and wanted to call Lao Zhang, but I was afraid that he might fall asleep and you would wake him up.
"Old Zhang has been running around for two days on a case. Isn't that unacceptable?"

"I won't talk to you." The old policeman drank tea.

Captain Wang shook his head and said nothing else. He quickly opened his notebook and began to sort out the case.

Then when it is turned on, there are swish and click sounds, and from time to time there are the sounds of various lighters.

Soon, the room was filled with mist.

Captain Wang, who likes to walk back and forth in the room during meetings, seems to be in a fairyland at this moment, emerging from one side of the clouds and mist and leaving from the other side of the clouds and mist.

As he left, the content of the meeting was sorted out one by one from the initial evidence, fingerprints, inquiries, and social relations.

He will point out whoever is in charge of a certain area and let that person speak.

Because Zhang Feng was responsible for everything and nothing at the same time, he was very lonely and could only sit in the clouds and listen.

Wait about half an hour.

Captain Wang put out the cigarettes that were almost constantly on his hand.

The sorting is finished, and there is basically nothing missing.

The rest is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

"Should we start with the Wuchenxiang?" Zhang Feng spoke at this time, and saw that everyone was looking at him.

Fortunately, Zhang Feng has experienced many worlds and now knows everyone in the bureau. Otherwise, being stared at by the inquiring eyes of more than 20 veteran criminal detectives would feel like being surrounded by a group of lions.

"Then what about the black dust incense?" Captain Wang currently didn't have a good idea, because talisman paper and other items were yellow paper without any words on it.

There are so many vendors selling this.

Furthermore, people can also choose a sacrificial festival, mingle with a group of buyers, and then buy things without using them.

After waiting for ten or twenty years, he would come out to draw talismans and kill people.

But Captain Wang heard from Zhang Feng that the shelf life of Wuchenxiang is only about one year no matter how well it is preserved.

Then screening the pharmacies in this city is feasible, at least it is smaller than the other targets.

"It's Wuchenxiang." The old detective also raised his hand. "Let's listen to Lao Zhang and start investigating now. Don't waste time. Otherwise, by the time we're discussing what to investigate, we'll have already finished investigating a whole pharmacy."

……

Searching for a needle in a haystack is something every criminal police officer will experience.

Zhang Feng now understands that it is just to ask each pharmacy and hospital according to the street area.

Clinics, and even small clinics opened in small houses in this era, cannot be ignored.

Any black clinic on any street corner can help you get rid of it.

Half a month passed like this.

Wuchenxiang was not found.

But two illegal clinics were shut down and handed over to relevant departments.

The task force is responsible for special cases and does not interfere with other matters. Other people and other bureaus in the city are responsible for the affairs of the bureau.

However, although it was a special case, Captain Wang and his team still managed to bust a gambling den and six thieves during their investigation, and prevented a street fight.

This lasted until the twenty-fifth day.

Everything that needed to be checked in the city was checked. Except for the black dust incense, the incense ashes on the scene were taken away for comparison with those of various temples and incense shops.

But all to no avail.

……

This afternoon.

Zhang Feng and Captain Wang drove to the door of a supermarket and parked on the side of the street, feeling mixed emotions.

Although Captain Wang was angry, he was also used to the fact that some difficult and major cases were not so easy to solve.

This was Zhang Feng’s first experience, but he was surprised by this awkward feeling of powerlessness.

Of course, it’s actually quite uncomfortable.

"It's tough, Lao Zhang." Captain Wang lit a cigarette and opened the window a little, "Is this your first time following a case from beginning to end?

I didn’t finish my first case, and I was so angry I didn’t want to talk.”

"Indeed." Zhang Feng stroked his unshaved beard, then looked at Captain Wang, whose face was already covered in scraggly marks. "Captain Wang, you've been sleeping at home for one day and in the car for three or four days. Can your body handle this?"

"What can I do?" Captain Wang saw that Zhang Feng was in good spirits and smiled, "I liked this line of work in the beginning and have been doing it for so many years. I said I'm used to it and it doesn't bother me at all. Do you believe me?"

"I believe it." Zhang Feng followed Captain Wang's words without interrupting him.

"You really believe it?" Captain Wang laughed and choked on the smoke. He coughed a few times before saying, "I can't really put it into words. I'm both annoyed and fond of this profession.

If you don't let me do it, I'll feel uncomfortable.

If you ask me to do it, I really don’t want to do it.”

"How about taking a few days off?" Zhang Feng stretched his sore arms; he was actually quite tired. "The higher-ups also said that the task force will be disbanded in two days, and we can't keep focusing on one thing.

After we're done, you want to come over to my place and play chess? Or a couple of rounds? Or have skewers in the evening?"

"Sure!" Captain Wang raised his head. "Old Zhang, you pay. I've been treating you with my subsidy these past two days."

"That's for sure." Zhang Feng responded with a smile and prepared to talk to Captain Wang about what to eat.

At this moment, a police officer appeared from the street ahead, followed by a man who was bowing his head.

Not long after.

The police officer came to the car and pushed the hunched man inside.

Captain Wang looked at him but didn't ask anything.

This person quickly said:

"Officials! I just know that there's someone in this city selling black dust incense. I went to buy some from him a few days ago, and he said someone bought all his stock two months ago..."

……

Midnight, three o'clock.

At a bend outside an alley.

Zhang Feng, Captain Wang and more than 20 others gathered here.

"Just one last check."

Captain Wang said at this moment: "The colleagues who were here during the day said that the drug dealer did not leave the house today."

He said, pointing to the small courtyard 20 meters ahead.

"The drug dealer is in the yard ahead. Xiao Sun and I will go in. Lao Chao, Wei Zi, and the rest of you will stay outside the yard."

Captain Wang said this and looked at Zhang Feng again.
"I've made an exception and brought you out for the operation. You stay here with the other two and stand by to respond to any emergency at any time.

Because the drug dealer inside is very dangerous. He is very agile and has fought in underworld boxing abroad before, and has a very outrageous criminal record.

In this case, a drug dealer injured twelve adult men with his bare hands ten years ago.

Although those twelve people were not armed, it was impossible for a normal person to achieve such a feat of one against twelve.

So Captain Wang and others listed him as a dangerous person.

Including this operation, all personnel are equipped with guns.

But after all, the other party is an important witness about the "murderer", so if you can control him, you should try your best to control him.

Arrangements completed.

Captain Wang didn't waste any time and led the eight people to the back door of the courtyard in front.

There is a tree in the backyard, which will provide easy hiding when jumping down.

Captain Wang and his men wanted to sneak in quietly and capture the sleeping drug dealer alive.

At the same time, the rest of the people were distributed around the courtyard, controlling every point.

There were also several police officers stationed at the far end of the alley in case someone suddenly arrived.

Just as Captain Wang and his eight men climbed in through the back door of the courtyard.

call-

At the front door, a man over 1.8 meters tall climbed out from the yard.

This person is the drug dealer!

He had irregular sleep patterns and didn't sleep tonight. He was enjoying the cool air in the yard when he heard the light footsteps outside and knew someone was trying to catch him.

At this moment, he was just waiting for a group of people to come in first, and then he would climb out from the other end.

This will reduce the chance of being surrounded.

"Want to catch me? Your footwork is still a little immature, and your steps are like thunder."

He jumped out of the yard with his strong body, and was as light as a civet cat. He bent his legs slightly to relieve the impact of the jump. The next moment, he exerted force with his legs and jumped more than five meters away. He left the front of the yard in an instant and rushed out of the alley in another step.

"He just jumped down, and he jumped so far?" The police officers next to him were shocked. They didn't expect that this person was so agile?
The captain still put it lightly.

This doesn't look like he can fight at all, he's clearly a martial arts master from TV!

"do not move!"

The two criminal police officers on duty outside the hospital were a little panicked when they saw the martial arts master rushing towards them, but they still stepped forward to intercept him without hesitation and took out their guns at the same time.

It's just too close, just two steps away.

The drug dealer grinned, put his shoulders forward, and with a change of tactics, he used the Bear Backer move. His strong body was like a running rhinoceros, and with a bang, he knocked a police officer in front of him more than a meter away.

Another officer had just drawn his pistol.

He turned sideways and swung his hand back, slapping the police officer's arm and knocking the pistol out of his hand.

At the same time, five meters away.

"He has some kung fu skills, and his physical fitness is around 27, 12 points higher than mine."

Zhang Feng's eyes lit up when he saw this. He exerted a little force with his legs and walked forward in three or two steps, blocking the path that he had to take.

"Looking for death!" The drug dealer took advantage of his running speed and pounced on Zhang Feng like a hungry tiger, slapping his big palm on the forehead.

"Old Zhang, be careful!" Captain Wang and others who were chasing him were startled and were about to fire a warning shot.

After Captain Wang and his men knew that the person had escaped, they rushed over here and saw how the two police officers were injured. They knew that this drug dealer was definitely not an "expert" that normal people could deal with.

But Zhang Feng remained calm, watching the drug dealer's hand getting closer and closer.

When his palm was half a meter away.

Zhang Feng suddenly stepped to the left, moved sideways half a meter, and came to his right side.

At this time, Zhang Feng was parallel to his running body.

"Gossip? A master? Why is he walking so silently? How is it possible to be silent?" The drug dealer was startled when he saw Zhang Feng disappear from his sight, and suddenly changed his tactics to the right where there was wind.

However, Zhang Feng's left hand had already stretched out from his chest, and he struck forward with his knife, like a dragonfly skimming the water, hitting the medicine dealer just above his elbow.

The nerves in his antecubital fossa were struck and the force was taken away.

While Zhang Feng was repelling his attack, he continued to move his palm forward and struck the side of his neck.

The nerves in his neck were damaged, and he lost his balance just after running a little further.

In an instant, his running body leaned forward.

Zhang Feng was behind him, and suddenly changed his palm into a hammer, smashing it down on his back and chest!
Boom!
The drug dealer bent his legs forward, and driven by the remaining force from running, he fell face down to the ground in a kneeling position.

Plop—

He hit the ground headfirst and saw stars.

In just one second, Zhang Feng changed his strength and completed three consecutive moves as he passed in front of and beside him.

Except for seeing Zhang Feng dodge at the beginning, the drug dealer couldn't even keep up with the rest of his thoughts, and was hit by three moves in a row.

"Just...put it down?"

Captain Wang and others paused for a moment, then quickly controlled the man.

After handcuffing the drug dealer, they saw that the martial arts master was still unable to recover for a long time and needed someone to support him.

Captain Wang looked at Zhang Feng in surprise, "Old Zhang, how come I didn't know you were such a good fighter?"

He didn't even see clearly what Zhang Feng did just now, and neither did the others.

I just felt that under the dim street lights, Zhang Feng's hands, which were constantly changing their moves, seemed to have a phantom?
"Brother Zhang, are you one of those martial arts masters who hides in the city?" The police officer next to him also looked at Zhang Feng in surprise. "Outrageous! Really outrageous! Not only do you understand Taoist cultivation? You're even so skilled?"

"Mr. Zhang, how did you subdue him just now?" The criminal police officer who had just been knocked down asked in surprise while rubbing his aching chest.
"He's as strong as an ox. When he hit me just now, I felt my whole chest shaking."

"Yes!" Captain Wang also asked, and then he imitated Zhang Feng's previous move to knock the man down and said, "How did you put him on the ground?"

"It's nothing." Zhang Feng saw that everyone was asking, so he pointed his palm forward slightly and performed a series of push-hands movements of Baji and Taiji very slowly and simply.

"Just like that, one push, one push, and then one downward hammer, and he fell down on his own. It's a simple three-step combo of using the opponent's force to counter the opponent's force."
