Drew Peterson: Untouchable

My wife is missing, and the whole community is talking about it. Some people even say that my house is too dangerous and haunted.

That's ridiculous. Rather than make me believe in ghosts, I'd rather believe that what they said was man-made, including my wife's disappearance.

At the moment, I am sitting in the interrogation room of the police station, and the police officer Fang Cun is sitting opposite.

My wife disappeared the day before yesterday. I thought she had gone to a friend's house. She has done this before. She went to stay with her best friend for a few days without saying a word.

After I told the police officer Fangcun what happened, he told me to go home and wait for news, telling me that I would try my best to find my wife.

I'm sorry. I love my wife very much.

I walked into the community with heavy steps.

"Zhou Zheng, have you seen my flowers?"

It was grandma Liu, my neighbor, who stopped me. She lives alone in her sixties, and Huahua is her dog.

"Sorry, Grandma Liu, I didn't see your flowers."

When I walked into the community, all the neighbors on the road greeted me. The way they looked at me was full of comfort. They all seem to know about my wife's disappearance. Bad news travels fast. I am very grateful for their sympathetic greetings.

I live in Unit 4 10 1. When I entered the room, I leaned back on the sofa. It's really lonely to stay alone in the room. I turned on the TV and changed several channels casually, all of which were boring entertainment programs. I think it would be great if my wife could come back at this time.

I didn't sleep well for two nights because of my wife. At this time, I was so sleepy that I couldn't open my eyes. At first, I was in a daze, but I heard a knock at the door.

"Bang, bang."

I stood up and stared at the door. Three seconds later, I quickly walked to the door and opened it. It turned out to be fangcun police officer.

"Mr. Zhou Zheng, I'm sorry, there are some things I still want to know."

Didn't you just meet? Why did you come again so soon? I thought. "Sorry to trouble you, fangcun police officer. What do you want to know? "

"Was there anything unusual before your wife disappeared?"

"No, as usual." I thought about it.

"Well, may I come in?" Fang Cun stood at the door, pen and notebook in hand.

"Well, well, of course. Please come in."

"What's that smell?"

"Well, my wife likes this perfume. I still wear some every day since she disappeared. This is, um, I miss it. " I reached for the perfume on the table.

"Your wife is very beautiful," Fangcun said, looking at the wedding photos of my wife and me through the open bedroom door.

"Yes, we were together when we were in college. At that time, she was more beautiful, but I didn't deserve her. " I also looked up at the wedding photos, and my wife was really beautiful.

"This is your ability to get such a wife."

"Do you mind if I look around?" Said, and the heart turned a circle in the room. Although I don't like what he did, I have to follow.

He went to the bedroom first, opened the wardrobe, took a look, picked up his wife's clothes and put them down again. There are some clothes that his wife has never changed before. I'm a little disgusted with Fangcun's practice.

"This is my wife's clothes. Is there a problem? "

"No, just look at it. The more you know, the more clues you may have. "

Close the closet, leave the bedroom and run directly to the kitchen.

"The kitchen is very clean."

"My wife has been packed. I can't cook when she is away. I have never used it. "

"Well, I'm looking for. What floor is there? " Fangcun stood at the door of the kitchen and looked at the floor in the corner of the kitchen.

There is also a pull ring on the floor. "Because my home is on the 1 floor, there is a small basement."

Fang Cun seemed interested in the basement and ran over.

I gave him a hand, and he turned and asked, "What?"

"No, nothing, it has been abandoned for a long time, and it is very gray." I smiled.

Crashed with a clash, the square inch pulled the ring hard and pulled the floor open, and a cloud of ash surged up from the ground.

"The basement, basically nobody use, is not big. Just put some old tables and chairs. Go down and have a look? " I said with a smile.

Fangcun was about to say something when his phone rang. He answered a few words and then hung up the phone and said to me, "Well, I'll go first."

"Fangcun police officer, I hope you can find my wife as soon as possible." I bowed to him.

He nodded. "Of course, we will find her!"

After Fangcun left, I collapsed on the sofa, and the loneliness that had disappeared before struck again. I can't stand such loneliness, so I decided to go out for a walk.

At this time, it was past noon, and as soon as I walked out of the unit door, I heard a noise outside and a group of people surrounded in front.

I approached some "Aunt Li, there you are. What's the matter? " I whispered.

"Look at this ship, this takeaway, his car scraped this Mercedes-Benz, and now the Mercedes-Benz owner is clamoring to lose money."

"Well, this Mercedes is not like our community."

"Well, I just sent a girl back." Aunt Li looked at me and snickered. "What kind of rich man will raise a third child here?"

"More than that, it is said that it is the responsibility of Mercedes-Benz owners. He tried to cheat the young man. " Aunt Sun looked at the owner of Mercedes next to her and said in disgust.

I nodded and agreed with Aunt Sun, and then looked at the two people who were surrounded in the middle. The takeaway brother is thin and weak, listening to the criticism of Mercedes-Benz owners without saying a word.

The owner of Mercedes-Benz looks like an intellectual, wearing glasses and gentle, but he is vicious and sharp when he speaks.

"Are you scratching my car? Can you afford it? "

The delivery man looked at the crowd. I could see that he wanted to ask for help, but the audience around him knew that it was the responsibility of the Mercedes-Benz owner, but no one stood up for the little brother who delivered the takeaway.

Turning around, I smiled, afraid of being seen by others, so I had to leave this funny scene quickly.

"Now, people are not always like this. The weak deserve to be bullied. The audience will only sympathize, not help. What are you waiting for? What a silly boy. " I thought.

I still remember a girl jumping off a building a long time ago, and the onlookers downstairs cheered and encouraged her to jump off. Haha, I really want to laugh. I keep thinking about some messy things.

Sometimes, the wicked will be driven out. What is really bad to the bone is indifference, which is the indifference and selfishness of those who claim to be kind.

Walking and thinking, I tried to extend the time to go home. I don't know why, now I should be full of affection for this family, but I'm not interested at all.

In the afternoon, the sun sets, the evening breeze blows gently, my body moves and I feel comfortable.

The aunts in the community came out for a stroll with strollers, laughing and joking with each other. Of course, they all greeted me.

"Zhou Zheng, how are you recently? Something similar happened. " This is my neighbor Aunt Liu comforting me.

I have a smile on my face. "Ah, aunt liu, it's okay. I trust the police. They will help me get Kobayashi back. "

"How could such a good young man encounter such a thing?" I smiled and left aunt Liu's side

I looked at the innocent smiling face of the baby in the stroller. "You don't know what kind of person your grandmother is. Do you think she is happy to coax you? I heard her complain behind your mother's back that you were a burden and delayed her old age. "

Does it really have to be true between relatives and blood? I don't know how many parents have been beaten, and countless children have been abused.

Wherever the sun goes, there is a shadow. There are too many sewers in this world.

Only oneself is the most reliable. I looked at the sky and shook my head.

One person after another passed by me, and I smiled back, some greeted me and some comforted me. Everyone has a sincere smile on his face, but in my opinion, they all wear elusive masks.

No matter what happens to you, everyone will just be a bystander and throw you a banana at most, which is still a reward for treating you as an orangutan.

Go to the door of the community and see a familiar figure. Suddenly, I stopped.

It's Fangcun! What's he doing in the hardware store opposite the community? He seems to be taking notes while asking questions.

I stopped and stepped back slowly. That smiling policeman is really annoying.

I just took two steps back and accidentally bumped into someone.

"Sorry, Grandma Liu, I didn't see you."

"Nothing, nothing." Grandma Liu waved her hand.

What are you doing here?

"I am looking for a dog. Huahua has not been found yet. "

"Are you still looking for it? Don't worry, she may have gone out to play and will be back soon. "

"no, I lost the flowers ... let me see, it's been two days."

"Well, don't worry, I'll help you find it."

"You are a good boy, but don't bother. You have so many things to do yourself. A policeman has promised to help me find them. " Grandma Liu looks across the street. "He said he was going to the opposite hardware store. He is really a good policeman. "

I followed grandma Liu's line of sight. Yes, it's Fangcun. He stood in the street, looking at his notes. I don't know what he is thinking. Suddenly, he seemed to look at me. I immediately turned my head and stopped looking in that direction.

"Grandma Liu, did the police officer say anything else?"

"There is nothing else to say." Grandma Liu thought again, "Oh, by the way, he also asked me if I had seen Xiao Lin. She must be helping you find a wife, too What a nice person. "

"Well, grandma, she is really a good policeman. Ok, then I'll go first. "

"Uh-huh, you go and get busy." Grandma Liu patted me on the shoulder and said, "By the way, Xiao Lin will come back, right?"

I stare blankly for a moment. "Well, yes, yes."

"Well, then you can relax. If you have done nothing wrong in your life, God will not treat you badly. You are so kind, Kobayashi will definitely come back. "

"Well, well, I hope so."

When I was separated from grandma Liu, I immediately went home. It was getting dark and the room was dark. Sure enough, darkness can bring fear to people, so I thought of turning on the light quickly.

I took out my perfume and sprayed it in the house. Then I took a bath, lay in bed and looked at the ceiling. I don't know why, but I still can't sleep

The clock ticks, as if it is past midnight, and I am still tossing and turning. At this moment, I seem to hear something.

"Bang ... Bang"

Is there someone knocking at the door? I was surprised and sat up directly from the bed.

The sound of "bang ... bang" goes from far to near, like knocking at the door, and some don't.

I walked to the door trembling, as if I had heard the voice before. Who's playing a prank? It's early morning.

I slowly approached the cat's eye and looked out with one eye.

All I see is darkness, my heart is in my throat, and I always feel that there is a person standing outside the door. At this moment,

The banging sound rang again.

I was so scared that I quickly left the door and sat down on the ground. I quickly stood up to turn on the light, but I couldn't reach the switch. I was a little surprised and forgot that I was still sitting on the ground.

"Someone must be scaring me, it must be!"

Just when I comforted myself, the banging finally disappeared, and I was secretly relieved, but

The next moment, there was another sound, harsh and sharp, like a woman sobbing and crying.

"Where did this sound come from ..." I leaned against the wall. "Really ... Xiao Lin!"

At this point, I simply can't tell where this harsh voice came from.

However, the sound continued, and I squatted on the ground covering my ears. Suddenly, I realized that the sound was coming from the basement. ......

I don't know where I got the courage. I stood up again and walked step by step to the door of the basement.

The closer I got, the stronger my guess became. The sound did come from the basement.

I am near the kitchen, which looks like the entrance to the basement. The moonlight shone slightly on the floor, showing that dust was floating in the air. Compared with the fragrance in the room, the rancid gas is completely two worlds.

When Fangcun left, I forgot to buckle the pull-tab floor at the entrance of the basement. I hesitated to go forward.

1 of "pa", the floor was buckled and the sound gradually disappeared.

Go back to bed again, it's already three o'clock in the morning.

Instead of lying down, I took out my telescope, went to the window and looked at the opposite floor.

"What's that noise?" I guess I never believed in ghosts.

Two days ago, the cold war between my wife and I had lasted for several days. I suspect that she is cheating, and she is angry because I suspect her. In this way, our feelings become bigger and bigger in suspicion.

How can she blame me for being suspicious? She is so beautiful, I am just a poor boy, how can she follow me willingly? People are selfish!

That morning, I grabbed her hair and forced her to admit cheating. I thought to myself, as long as you admit it, I will forgive you and live a good life in the future, but why don't you admit it? Why do you have to push me?

I still remember that night, Grandma Liu's flowers were taken home by my wife. I asked her mercilessly, "What are you doing with it?"

The way she looked at me, she ignored me. You ignored me. I grabbed the wrench in the toolbox, grabbed the dog and threw it at its head.

In a flash, the dog went soft and my wife grabbed my arm like crazy. She cried. At that time, the door was still open, so I covered her mouth for fear that her crying would attract neighbors.

She began to break free, and then, loudly said to me, I want to tell grandma Liu that I killed her dog.

I wonder if this woman will be stupid enough to help others sue her husband.

I took a few steps to the door and closed it. She stood in front of me and cried all the time. Crying really bothers me. I raised my hand and put a wrench on her head. She fell like that dog.

I felt a little scared when the blood gurgled out, but now that people have been killed, the next thing I have to consider is how to hide the body.

No matter day or night, it is dangerous to be seen if you want to move the body out.

At this moment, countless plans emerge in my heart, dismembering the body, burning it, hiding the body in the refrigerator like some idiot? No matter how you think about it, there is no complete solution, which is really a headache.

I spent the night in anxiety.

Time passed unconsciously, and half a month passed after I called the police. During this period, I was intoxicated in the days without suspicion. I think it's really out of sight.

Fang Cun came several times again, and I put him off in a few words. He even brought someone to search my house. Of course, he found nothing. It seems that everything has settled, so I can rest easy.

Another bright morning, when I opened the door to go out, I saw Fangcun standing in front of my door, with a dozen policemen standing behind me.

"Fangcun police officer, have you come to investigate again?"

"Well, yes."

I looked at his gray face and fought back a smile.

How can you find your lost wife? I have no panic in my heart.

Accompanied by me, Fang Cun and the police searched every corner, and then searched many times and found it in the basement.

I keep calm. I stood in the basement with my chest in my hands, casually walking back and forth, occasionally leaning against that old desk and chair.

Looking at the expression of heart, this time, he shook his head and seemed to give up. I was ecstatic, like a victorious general.

I really hope that Fang Cun can say a word at this time, just say a word, and he can prove to my face that I am a wife killer.

The police have begun to climb the ladder leading to the ground.

I finally couldn't help it. "Incompetent police, you can't find my wife, but you come to search my house again and again. Did I hide my wife? "

"Is this it?" I pointed to a corner of the basement.

I picked up the old desk and chair, fell off the leg of the desk and bumped into the wall. "Is this it?"

The more I ask, the more excited I am, and the more I knock, the more I feel that Fangcun looks pale.

At this moment, however, the sound of knocking on the wall has not dispersed, and a voice came from somewhere.

At first it sounded like someone was crying intermittently, but then it suddenly turned into a continuous howl, with a harsh and terrible voice.

I think that's the devil's voice.

I stumbled, fell backwards, fell on the wall and almost fainted.

The policemen on the stairs came down one by one, their eyes blazing, and they rushed to the wall at once. I know, I'm finished.

Then, I saw more than a dozen uniforms remove the old tables and chairs, exposing the wall, and they began to tear down the newly built wall.

The whole wall collapsed instantly, and the female corpse inside stood upright in front of everyone.

In the arms of the corpse, sat a little dog, covered in blood, with its big mouth open and eyes full of blood, staring at me.

I don't think it's dead. That sound is that it's howling and sending me to hell!

Fangcun notes:

Speaking of it, this may not be a bizarre story, but it is really a story that stumbles me.

Since the ship called the police, I have never given up my doubts about him for a moment, although I can't say why.

Just say a little. I always feel something is wrong. The perfume in the room is different from that on his wife's clothes. I was wondering if there was something hidden in this fragrance, such as the smell of blood.

During the investigation, the owner of the hardware store once said that Zhou bought several bags of cement ash from him. Later I thought, I was really perfunctory by him. I really didn't expect him to build his wife's body into the wall.

Finally, I found Grandma Liu's flowers. After washing, they were as lovely as before, but they left a permanent scar on their heads. Strangely, a wild animal was hungry for half a month and didn't even eat a corpse.
