Chapter 84: The Murderer’s Experiment
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
With screams like pigs being slaughtered, several people fell to the ground mid-swing.
Hearing the screams, President Liu mustered up his courage and looked over.
President Liu immediately fell back.
Chen Yu supported him and said to a worker inside, “Continue digging.”
“Boss, we can’t dig anymore.”
The worker who spoke first stuttered, “There… there are corpses buried below!”
“This is a murder case!”
“You aren’t the murderer. Moreover, there are surveillance cameras around. No one will find fault with you.”
Chen Yu pinched President Liu’s philtrum, and he trembled as if he had been electrocuted before standing up straight.
He was about to run before he stopped in his tracks after hearing Chen Yu’s words.
“This is your clubhouse,” Chen Yu said. “If you run away, this place will be finished.”
President Liu bit his lips hard, trying to use pain to overcome his fear.
He had lived for decades and had never seen such a terrifying scene.
Two human heads were peeking out from the mud under the private room.
From the looks of it, more corpses should still be buried underneath.
Which bastard did this?
How could someone choose such a place as a grave?
President Liu shook his head.
No, there should be a coffin if this were a grave.
Moreover, he had never seen anyone buried with their heads facing up.
The head was still intact, meaning these corpses weren’t anything ancient.
“President Liu,” Chen Yu reminded him, “brave men should be heavily rewarded.”
“I understand.”
President Liu took a few deep breaths.
“My fellow workers, please work just a little more. I’ll double your pay later, to 200,000 yuan per person.”
The saying that brave men should be heavily rewarded was vividly reflected at this moment.
Although the workers knew something was wrong with this place, they still threw their fear aside when faced with a reward of 200,000 yuan.
All of them braced themselves and continued digging.
As they dug deeper, even more terrifying scenes appeared before everyone’s eyes.
There were not two bodies buried below, but four.
All four corpses were buried in a standing position.
“Boss, there seems to be yet another corpse below…”
A worker felt his shovel touch something soft, so he reckoned another corpse should be lying below.
“You can leave now.”
Chen Yu waved his hand behind him.
The six workers left the private room in a single file as quickly as possible.
Walking to the pit’s edge, Chen Yu bent down and muttered, “Ice Hell, Fire Hell, Caesarean Hell, Tongue-Pulling Hell, and the one at the bottom should be the Heart-Digging Hell.”
“The five hells are complete. The bastard came here to experiment on the living!”
“Dr. Chen, what hell? What experiment?”
“Call the police and contact the Criminal Investigation Division,” Chen Yu said without turning his head.
“But my clubhouse…”
“Captain Li Changjun of the Criminal Investigation Division knows how to deal with it. You don’t have to worry about news getting out.”
“Alright, I’ll try to contact him.”
Now that things had come to this, President Liu could only choose to believe in Chen Yu.
Chen Yu said strange things would happen, and strange things really did happen in the middle of the night.
He had just arrived and said there was something under the private room.
As expected, there were four corpses buried underneath.
No, five corpses.
Not long after, many black cars appeared at the clubhouse’s entrance.
Li Changjun, wearing a windbreaker with stubble on his chin, strode inside.
“Dr. Chen, why are you here?”
Li Changjun asked in surprise.
President Liu just called and said corpses were found in a private clubhouse room.
He also stated this had nothing to do with him and requested the Criminal Investigation Division come to the scene.
He also personally said he wanted Li Changjun to take charge of this.
Because the Imperial City Clubhouse was the most important entertainment venue in the area, even if President Liu didn’t say anything, the Criminal Investigation Division would be involved in the investigation.
It was just that he hadn’t expected to see Chen Yu here.
“Captain Li, take a closer look at this,” Chen Yu said. “What’s the difference between this and the photos you showed me earlier?”
“Photos?”
Li Changjun’s memory immediately returned to a few days ago.
He squatted down and asked, “Dr. Chen, could these corpses be related to those people…”
Chen Yu did not need to answer his question after Li Changjun’s eyes met the face of a corpse.
The forehead of the corpse had been drawn with a few strange patterns in blood.
Li Changjun put on a pair of white gloves and pried open the corpse’s mouth.
There was no tongue inside.
It should have been cut or severed from the base of the tongue.
Li Changjun’s expression was frighteningly dark as he walked to another corpse.
These corpses were the same as the previous four recent victims.
“I know you have a lot of questions now. Come to my consultation room tonight.”
“Dr. Chen, do you already know who the murderer is?”
Without saying a word, Chen Yu left the Imperial City Clubhouse.
The murderer had obtained a secret technique from the tomb.
However, it was only superficial and did not have anything important written down.
With only a fraction of this knowledge, the murderer began experimenting on the living.
These five corpses and the four who had died weeks earlier were all his experimental subjects.
If these experiments failed, this person would still continue to experiment until he succeeded or suffered divine retribution.
“Grandpa, do you have the latest Ultraman sticker?”
At four o’clock in the afternoon, a primary school in downtown Hangzhou City was dismissed.
A large number of students poured out of the school.
Across the street from the school was a shop selling all kinds of toys and snacks.
The owner was in his fifties, wearing a singlet and shorts. He was lying on a recliner and fanning himself from the heat.
“It hasn’t arrived yet. Come over next Monday.”
Since there weren’t any Ultraman stickers, the primary school student spent fifty cents to buy a pack of snacks and left.
After a while, a few more primary school students came.
They also wanted to buy Ultraman stickers.
“I already told you that there aren’t any, so why are you students asking the same question every day?”
The owner looked very impatient.
“Come back next Monday.”
With that, the boss waved his fan and chased the primary school students away.
He continued to rest in his recliner with his eyes closed.
“Mister, do you believe in light?”
“Believe my ass!”
The owner retorted unhappily.
“You’re not done, are you? You bunch of brats have no brains.”
“I’ve already written it outside. They will be here next week…”
The owner stood up while cursing and realized the person who spoke up wasn’t a primary school student.
It was an adult.
“You want to buy Ultraman stickers too?”
“Do you believe in the light?”
Chen Yu continued asking.
“Shoo, shoo. Go somewhere else. It’s fine if children believe in this, but an adult?”
“Who the hell would believe in the light?”
Chen Yu sighed after hearing that.
“Your self-deceiving mental illness is getting worse and worse.”
“You don’t believe in light,” Chen Yu said. “But you believe in immortality and that you can become an immortal.”
The owner retorted, “You… what nonsense are you talking about? There are no immortals here. Immortality is a lie.”
“Since you don’t believe in that, why don’t you turn back even if you hit a wall?”
“Tonight is the time to kill the fifth, no?”
As soon as he finished speaking, the pathetic-looking boss released a chilling aura.
His pupils suddenly contracted.
His index and middle fingers on his left hand straightened immediately..
