Chapter 44 The Axe-wielding Woman
The young reporter pointed with a pencil at the piece of paper he was looking at just now. On that piece of paper was written the list of victims and the numbers copied from the black diary.
"The mystery of this number has been solved!"
"What's going on? What is it..."
The reporters who were covering the news gathered around his table. The young reporter said proudly: "Listen to me, you see, these are all copied from the black diary, and I abducted the victims separately."
The date of their murder was written under their names. I have been studying the relationship just now, and finally made a big discovery. This discovery can completely write a feature article."
"Don't get excited for now, please speak clearly first."
"Listen, be careful not to be frightened! Behind the first victim, Mrs. Xuemei, there is a number 132 written, and the date when the second victim, Fan Ling, was abducted, happened to be a few days from the date when Mrs. Xuemei disappeared.
132 days.”
"If you continue reading, the number after Fan Ling's name is 118, and the third one is
The day when the victim Mo Jiayi was abducted was also the 118th day after Fan Ling disappeared. By analogy, the rest of the dates are also exactly one day apart."
"Well..." The reporters gathered there nodded in approval. This is really an amazing discovery. Once this news is released, it will cause a sensation in the entire Dongzhou City.
The editor-in-chief also rushed over and ordered the news to be published in the evening newspaper that day. However, his expression suddenly changed: "Oh! This is incredible!" he exclaimed.
"What's wrong? Editor-in-Chief?"
"Now there is another more important feature news. Look, after the name of the sixth victim, Williamson, there is the number 114. Doesn't this mean that after the 114th day, the seventh victim will be abducted and disappeared?
?”
"Yeah! That's right!" The reporters also shouted in unison.
"Williamson was abducted on June 26th...then the 114th day from then on is October 18th. On that day, the seventh woman will be abducted and become a victim. If there are young
If the lady disappeared on that day, she was captured by the murderous devil and the axe-wielding woman. We must call on the citizens of the city to be more vigilant about this."
Then, the editor-in-chief told the young reporter: "Hurry up and write a special article. The content is to infer based on the solved numerical mystery that on October 18, someone will be abducted and disappear. Publish it as soon as it is written.
Publish, be quick! Be quick!”
As soon as this special article was published, it immediately aroused panic among the women in Dongzhou. Ah! Who will become the seventh victim? That terrifying "axe-wielding woman" is somewhere unknown in the city.
Where is the place! Ah! It’s so terrible...
Finally, the terrifying day of October 18th arrived.
In the morning, Lang Xiaobai called Yingzi.
"I have two tickets for the evening show of the Grand Theater here. The seats are upstairs. I would like to invite you to watch them together. Are you willing to come?"
"Thank you, I will definitely go."
"Okay, see you at nine o'clock in the evening. If you arrive early, please wait in your seat for a while. But you have to be careful!"
Lang Xiaobai joked and said:
"Today is October 18th! If you encounter a succubus with an ax on the street, you should immediately walk in the opposite direction and hide, you know?"
"I know, I will be careful."
Lang Xiaobai seemed to see Yingzi's charming smile on the phone. He put down the phone and smiled.
In the afternoon, Lang Xiaobai bought all the evening newspapers and browsed them, but found no news about women being abducted.
At nine o'clock in the evening, Lang Xiaobai came to the Grand Theater. When he went to the seats upstairs, he saw that Yingzi had not come yet.
By nine-thirty, she was still nowhere to be seen. "Maybe there was something temporarily delayed." Lang Xiaobai wasn't too worried, but just in case, he still called Yingzi's apartment.
"The lady hasn't come back!" The maid answered the phone.
Lang Xiaobai immediately became nervous and drove his private car to the apartment. This was a high-end apartment with complete furniture and decorations. Lang Xiaobai personally selected it for Yingzi and hired a maid specifically for her.
.
The maid was very young, honest and reliable. She told Lang Xiaobai: "Miss, she went to the post office to send a letter at about nine o'clock. Before leaving, she also mentioned that she would change into the clothes she had worn when she came back so that she could go out easily.
I went to the theater to watch a play. But I still haven’t seen her back. I’m really worried about her.”
"To whom is she sending the letter?"
"It's a letter I'm sending to you. The envelope is marked 'Mr. Lang Xiaobai'."
"Oh? We have made an appointment to meet tonight, why do you still need to send a letter? What is written in the letter?" Strange, it doesn't make sense! Lang Xiaobai became more and more anxious, and he waited in the apartment until midnight
, and as a result, she still hasn’t come back.
