“Does this mean that the video received by Xiao Wanshan…” Zou Xingjing murmured.
“Is the video where Shen Zhi demands her life!” Song Nian analyzed. “She killed Shen Zhi the day before and then received such a video; naturally, it would scare her into having a heart attack.”
At that moment, Zhang Qing finally stopped typing on the keyboard and controlling the mouse. He turned slightly to look at Zou Xingjing and Song Nian, and in an extremely cold voice said, “The video has been restored.”
Just as Song Nian had inferred, the video featured Shen Zhi with disheveled hair and a mournful voice. This video was likely created by the mastermind using computer special effects and then handed over to Sun Zhen, who sent it to Xiao Wanshan using Yang Yanrong's email.
“What a shocking case this is!” Zou Xingjing exclaimed. “Everything is designed flawlessly; the actions of the five victims, our police actions, and any unexpected situations in the entire plan have all been accounted for by that mastermind! Truly, a terrifying criminal!”
“No,” Zhang Qing shook his head. “His plan is not perfect; the magic circle cannot be completed because we will definitely stop Sun Zhen from being killed, breaking the final link of the magic circle! As they say, ‘Man proposes, but Heaven disposes.’
The mastermind thought he had calculated everything, but he didn’t anticipate that fate would allow me to join this case and disrupt the criminal masterpiece he painstakingly created!”
At this point, they heard the pilot of the helicopter announce loudly, “We have arrived at T City! The landing site is below! We are preparing to land!”
Zou Xingjing, Song Nian, and Zhang Qing disembarked from the helicopter and saw a police car parked ahead with two detectives standing beside it.
“Hello!” One of the detectives stepped forward and greeted Zou Xingjing and the others. “We are detectives from T City. We received a call from Deputy Captain Yu Wen of L City Criminal Police Team and have been waiting for you here.”
Zhang Qing bluntly asked, “Have you found out where Sun Zhen’s home is?”
The other detective replied, “We’ve already found it. Please get in the car; I’ll take you there.”
“Don’t open it!” Zhang Qing shouted.
The man paused for a moment, “What?” But his hands were already reaching to open the Iron Box. Zhang Qing’s eyebrows furrowed slightly as he acted decisively, quickly drawing his gun and firing at the Iron Box. With a loud bang, the box was opened just as the bullet struck it, causing it to fall to the ground. As soon as the Iron Box hit the floor, a series of hissing sounds erupted, and countless dark shadows darted in all directions. Everyone stared in shock as they realized that dozens of short arrows had been launched from within the Iron Box, their force astonishing.
Later, when the police took the Iron Box for examination, they discovered that it was rigged with a spring mechanism made of steel wires, designed to shoot short arrows. The moment the Iron Box was opened, the mechanism would activate, releasing fifty arrows coated with a deadly poison that could seal one’s fate with a single drop of blood!
At the bottom of the Iron Box lay a severed piece of a black cat—specifically, its right hind leg.
Meanwhile, the man who had opened the box was horrified as he witnessed the barrage of arrows shooting out. His face twisted in fear, recalling the perilous situation he had just escaped. His complexion turned a shade of purple.
This man was Sun Zhen. He had returned to T City from L City last night and received this package that morning. He had no idea who had sent it or that it contained such a lethal trap. Just as he was about to open it, Zhang Qing had intervened. If Zhang Qing had arrived ten seconds later, Sun Zhen might have found himself facing death.
