I walked into David Brown's house and found that his house was in a mess.There were all kinds of things in the yard.
However,these things didn't seem to have been there for a long time,because I remembered that although David Brown had mental problems,he wasn't a slovenly person.

I kicked away a white water kettle,and immediately a patch of dried blood appeared in front of my eyes.
Seeing this situation,I was stunned for a moment.Then I cleaned up all the garbage in the yard,and large patches of dried blood appeared in front of me.
It seemed that I had found the first crime scene.
I entered the house and found that the door was locked,and it seemed to be locked from the inside.
I frowned.Could it be that David Brown was in the house?!
"David Brown!If you're in there,come out!"

There was no sound in the house for a long time.
Seeing this situation,I didn't hesitate.I found a stone,and with a crackling sound of broken glass,the glass of the house was broken.
After cleaning up the glass shards,I jumped into the house.
I entered the guest bedroom.The room was clean,and David Brown wasn't here.I went to the door and kicked the door open.

Bang!
The door was kicked open by me,and a stench of rotting corpses immediately entered my nose.
I almost couldn't hold back and vomited.The stench of the corpse in the living room was very strong.I turned my head and immediately saw David Brown hanging from the beam with his head.
David Brown was hung by a rope around his neck,suspended in the air.His tongue was sticking out,his eyes were bulging,and his face was pale.At his feet was a chopper with a curled blade.
Seeing this scene,I was stunned on the spot,and my mind went blank.
"Ah!"
At that moment,I felt that my spirit had reached the verge of collapse,and I let out a heart-rending roar to vent my inner feelings.
The village where I grew up was massacred overnight,and my childhood playmate was hanging in front of me.Anyone who experienced these things would be on the verge of a mental breakdown.
I'm a human being,not a machine.I also have emotions.
After calming down,I took out my phone and called Lily Thompson.Soon,Lily Thompson was called to David Brown's house by me.
I remembered clearly that my hands were shaking when I made the call.
"The time of death of this victim should be a little later than those of the previous corpses.The house was locked from the inside.Except for the window you broke to get in just now,all the doors and windows of the house are intact,and there is no place to get out.
The stool that fell on the ground can show that he was standing on this stool before and then committed suicide.It can be basically determined that David Brown committed suicide."
Lily Thompson expressed her observation and judgment,while I frowned,not quite understanding why David Brown committed suicide.
Was it because he felt guilty and committed suicide after killing too many people?
Impossible,absolutely impossible.
How could a murderer who killed more than twenty people in one night feel guilty?
"The curled blade of the chopper does look like the mark left after cutting off a person's cervical spine.However,with such a chopper,it can at most continuously cut off the cervical spines of more than a dozen people.Later,it will definitely become dull.But those corpses don't have the marks of being repeatedly chopped by a curled blade.
Moreover,judging from the wear of the blade,this knife can at most have cut no more than ten people.The murder weapon is still not found.And do you think it's possible for a lame person to kill people and transport the corpses in one night?"
The meaning of Lily Thompson's words was very clear.
There was more than one murderer.Besides David Brown,there should be another person.
"And you said that David Brown is a mentally ill person.Do you think a mentally ill person can kill more than twenty people in a village quietly in one night without anyone knowing?"
The more Lily Thompson spoke,the more serious her expression became.
"Think about it.Who in the village has a grudge against everyone in the village?"
Lily Thompson stared at me and asked,and I also began to think deeply,but no matter how I thought about it,I couldn't figure it out.
