Chapter 270 Ancient Ritual
Wu Qingluan supported the table with one hand and said, "Now that I think about it, the murderer and Wu Mengjie were familiar with each other. In a way, Wu Mengjie should not have been in school on the day she was murdered, but why did she appear in the laboratory at that late hour? Moreover, the murderer killed Wu Mengjie in a ritualistic way, so the relationship between him and Wu Mengjie must be complicated. What kind of relationship do they have?"
She paused to think, tapped her chin a few times with her index finger, and said uncertainly: "Maybe the murderer hates Wu Mengjie , so he is so cruel, or maybe the murderer loves Wu Mengjie, so he wants to get her heart even if she tears it apart? Anyway, I am a little confused now. The relationship between the murderer and Wu Mengjie is a little complicated."
After Wu Qingluan finished speaking, she looked at Gu Nankai: "What do you think?"
Gu Nankai sat down, then pondered for a few seconds and said, "I looked up some information about Wu Mengjie's death. Although it seems foolish and cruel to modern people, the ritual of killing living people to sacrifice to gods is not uncommon in human history. In many ancient civilizations in Europe, America and Africa, we can also find a more bloody history of human sacrifice."
Seeing that everyone was a little curious, he paused and continued, "After my investigation, Wu Mengjie's death may be related to a sacrificial ceremony called ritual sacrifice. According to historical records, the priests used obsidian rock knives to accurately find the location of the sacrificer's heart, cut it horizontally, and then reached in and quickly took out a still beating heart. Then, they raised it to the sky with both hands and dedicated it to the sun god Vizsla Pozitli. Then, the heart was placed on an eagle-shaped plate and burned. They believed that the soul of the sacrifice would always be with the sun god."
"Oh my god..." After hearing this, Gao Yuan slapped his forehead and said, "How can anyone believe in this kind of thing? You're so stupid. What about the sun god? I only believe in socialist values."
Everyone was originally chilled by Gu Nankai's knowledge, but they laughed out of the blue at Gao Yuan's words. After the joke, Gu Nankai said, "There are always people who believe in such unreliable things. Maybe Wu Mengjie is like the sun to the murderer. That feeling may be like Luo Cheng to Wu Mengjie. When the other party finds out that his sun has fallen in love with someone else, it may be a big blow to him, so he used this superstitious method to kill Wu Mengjie."
After Gu Nankai finished speaking, Wu Qingluan hissed in her heart, glanced at Shang Lu, and said hesitantly: "It sounds to me like this murderer is becoming more and more like Bu Yao's brother Bu Yun..."
Everyone agreed. Whether it was Wu Qingluan's previous profile analysis or Gu Nankai's current analysis, it seemed that everything pointed to the missing Bu Yun.
"Okay, now the most urgent thing is to find out the origin of the condom and Bu Yun's whereabouts."
Seeing that everyone had fallen into a brief silence, Gu Nankai took the initiative to break the silence.
Looking at the sky, it was already late. Gu Nankai chuckled and said, "Forget it, let's go home and rest first. Saving your life is the most important thing. We'll talk about it tomorrow morning."
"But boss, Luo Cheng and his girlfriend..." Everyone was overjoyed to be able to take a rest, but Cao Cang soon noticed Luo Cheng's girlfriend who was fidgeting not far away, and asked Gu Nankai hesitantly.
"We don't have any evidence to hold Luo Cheng captive right now, so let them go back."
Gu Nankai thought about it and finally decided to release Luo Cheng. Cao Cang was a little worried: "Boss, is it not safe to let him go? After all, we haven't found out the condom issue yet, and Luo Cheng is still the biggest suspect."
Gu Nankai smiled and patted Cao Cang on the shoulder to indicate that he should rest assured: "Do as I say. Maybe after Luo Cheng returns, we will have unexpected gains."
"Boss, what do you mean..."
Cao Cang looked at Gu Nankai in confusion: "Do you want to provoke the murderer?"
Gu Nankai grinned and chuckled, "Perhaps it's feasible. If Luo Cheng is not the murderer, then the murderer's purpose is to frame someone else. If he is the murderer, then he will definitely take some action after he gets out. Either way, it's much better than letting him stay in the serious crime squad."
After Gu Nankai's explanation, Cao Cang completely understood and quickly released Luo Cheng. Luo Cheng, who was reunited with his girlfriend, burst into tears as soon as he came out. The two hugged each other and said something like "you believe me and I believe you", which made everyone in the serious crime team eat a mouthful of dog food.
After the two left, Shang Lu sighed twice and said, "I hope Luo Cheng is really innocent. Otherwise, it would be a pity to have such a good girlfriend."
Everyone chuckled a few times and agreed with Shang Lu's statement. Just when everyone was about to inform Li Meng to go home and rest after the work was done, Li Meng's call was the first to reach Gu Nankai.
After listening to Li Meng's call, Gu Nankai's face changed, and at the same time he realized one thing in his mind: he had to work overtime again tonight.
After answering the call, Cao Cang and others quickly asked Gu Nankai about the situation. Gu Nankai told everyone what Li Meng said on the phone. It turned out that Li Meng went to investigate Sun Ziyang, and found out that this guy was beaten and admitted to the hospital two days ago. Li Meng immediately rushed to the hospital to find out the situation.
After learning this, Li Meng was shocked. He found out that the person who beat Sun Ziyang into the hospital was actually Bu Yun. After confirming the situation, Li Meng immediately called Gu Nankai.
"Hey, I thought today I could break the curse of our serious crime team having to work overtime when handling cases, but I didn't expect that I would still lose to Tian Zhen!"
After listening to Gu Nankai's introduction of the situation, Gao Yuan sighed helplessly. Everyone smiled bitterly and immediately packed up and rushed to the hospital.
Gu Nankai had already contacted Bu Yao on the way to the hospital. When they arrived at the hospital, Bu Yao and the others had already arrived.
"How is it going?"
As soon as he met Li Meng, Gu Nankai hurriedly asked.
"Boss, no wonder we can't find that guy Bu Yun. You don't know how badly he beat us. Now both of them are swollen like pigs' heads." Li Meng said as if he remembered the appearance of Bu Yun and Sun Ziyang again, and he couldn't help wanting to laugh.
Gu Nankai and the others followed Li Meng as he continued, "I have done some preliminary research. The reason why I couldn't contact Bu Yun was because his cell phone was smashed to pieces during the fight with Sun Ziyang. Sun Ziyang was fine. He was sent to a high-end ward at the hospital. But Bu Yun was miserable. Although he was also sent here by Sun Ziyang and his people, they only saved his life out of fear that someone else would die. He has been bullied a lot these past two days."
Gu Nankai seemed to have anticipated how Bu Yun had managed to survive in the hospital under such circumstances . However, when he rushed to the ward where Bu Yun was, he saw Bu Yun's face so swollen that it was hard to see his features, and the earth-shattering cry of Bu Yao's mother.
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Bu Yun dared to provoke Sun Ziyang alone, and he was still able to survive. He should really be thankful to God. Fortunately, Sun Ziyang still had a conscience and gave him a chance to live.
Bu Yao was also in the ward. Her mother was crying so hard that she was out of breath, and her father was furious. There was also a mute person lying on the bed. Poor Bu Yao had to comfort her father and coax her mother.
But Gu Nankai and the others could see that she was in a good mood.
Given Bu Yun's current situation, let alone killing someone, he can hardly even make a sound.
