Chapter 485: Carpentry Factory (1)

Wu Fang focused on the carpentry factory, and he spent a whole day exploring this small factory very carefully, and found nothing useful. But it always made him palpitate, or rather uneasy, and he thought he was very careful, leaving no traces, but there was clearly a feeling of being watched.

The woodware factory mainly produces wood carvings, handicrafts with ethnic characteristics and commonly used furniture. Although there are not many people, it occupies a large area and is surrounded by a half-brick, half-fence courtyard wall. Within the courtyard walls are two rows of brick and timber bungalows, arranged at right angles.

The horizontal row of houses is relatively low, divided into six or seven rooms, which seem to be used for office, rest and hospitality, while the vertical row is a large chase room, most of which is the operation room for production and processing, and the other part is a warehouse. The rest of the open space in the courtyard is scattered with several large bamboo sheds, which are filled with various timber and semi-finished products.

It is inferred from the daytime work that there are only a dozen people in the woodwork factory, and it is not very busy, and it will be closed at about four o'clock in the afternoon. For most of the day, Wu Fang did not find the owner of the carpentry factory, and the workers were giggling very freely, and they didn't even seem to be in charge.

After evening, there was only one old man on duty, he was a cripple, limped to close the courtyard door, then inserted the latch, and then let go of the big wolf dog tied to the bamboo shed, and went to cook leisurely.

It seems to be a very ordinary small factory in the township, but it makes Wu Fang feel weird and vague, and he can't see through it. It may be a matter of chance that the attitude of the workers to work, undisciplined and entertaining, may have been accidental, but who knows?

The woodsmith's location is peculiar, situated on the gentle slopes of the mountains, with only a dirt road leading to the town, barely enough to walk a loaf of bread or a walk-behind tractor. It is inconvenient to transport, and the location is puzzling, perhaps to facilitate the entry into the mountains to cut timber?

Behind the mountains is the stretching jungle, the famous Da Yao Pass Nature Reserve, a typical tropical rainforest area that is impossible to pass through with a small group of people without special equipment. On the west side is Mingmu Mountain, the boundary mountain on the border of China and Myanmar. Wu Fang shook his head and recalled the time it took to walk back and forth, a total of an hour and twenty minutes, and the distance was not too close and not too far.

After returning to the small hotel, Wu Fang locked himself in his room, carefully flipped through the case files, and looked at the map, and felt more and more that the geographical location of the town was extremely unique, with the rainforest area in the north, the Pampa port in the south, the famous border tourist city Ruili in the southeast, and to the west, as long as the Mingmu Mountain was crossed, it was Myanmar.

There is no doubt that Mengjiao is a middle ground that can be easily overlooked, and tourists and border residents will naturally choose the Pampa port for normal entry and exit, but what if it is a malicious* or a criminal transporting illegal materials for ulterior purposes? Obviously, the southern border crossing and the northern rainforest will not be preferred, that would be too risky. Further afield, Ruili, the border inspection is extremely strict, and it is by no means easy for the young people to be confused.

A more practical choice should be to climb directly over Mingmu Mountain, hiding and lurking in the fierce town below the mountain, which is extremely convenient. Although there are risks, they are much smaller in comparison.

Wu Fang was a little excited, he thought he had caught something, according to the case file records, the town has a small population, and most of them are related to each other, and outsiders are easy to identify, so these outlaws can't be stupid to take risks, they will definitely carefully choose a hidden foothold, and there should be people in the town.

This seems to explain the real reason why Carpenter Fan and Officer Xiao Zhang were killed one after another, and they must have discovered something. Wu Fang slapped the table fiercely, full of anticipation for the night's actions, and his drowsy head suddenly relaxed a lot.

He didn't tell the 'doctor' about his speculation at the first time, mainly because of face, he had a situation the first time he took the task, he was too lazy to be verbose, and his own brothers, he would definitely be able to get them back completely. Wu Fang did not contact the local police, always feeling that it was in the way, although the task force had not completely withdrawn from the town.

In the middle of the night, Wu Fang quietly left the small hotel, dressed in black, like a flickering shadow, he quickly disappeared at the end of the small street in the town. After a while, the same shadow appeared on the side street, looking at the dark night sky and sneering.

The woodware factory under the moonlight was dark and dreary, and Wu Fang stopped far away, firstly, he was suddenly a little unsteady in his heart, and secondly, he was worried about alarming the wolf dog. The dog guarding the guard in the mountains has an extremely sensitive sense of smell, and although he already has a countermeasure, he still needs to be careful.

After a few minutes of silence, he walked slowly and lightly, only a short distance before coming to a halt again. After waiting for a few more minutes, and then going some distance, and so on several times, it was already very close to the courtyard wall, but strangely there was no sound from inside.

Could it be a dumb dog? Wu Fang felt strange, at such a close distance, no matter how rotten the earth dog was, it was impossible for him to turn a deaf ear and keep his voice silent, or could the big wolf dog he saw with his own eyes in the afternoon have been released to roam around and is no longer in the yard?

Wu Fang immediately became vigilant, listening carefully and observing the movements around him, but everything was normal. To be on the safe side, he circled around the courtyard wall for a small half circle, and after repeatedly confirming his safety, he chose a relatively hidden location to climb up.

The courtyard was pitch black, without any light, and several buildings were lying there like monsters of different sizes, and there was nothing else to attract sight and ears.

Wu felt strange, reached out and took out his weapon, then twisted his waist and rolled over to the ground. In order to prevent accidents, he tried his best to walk against the wall, and the surroundings were so quiet that there was no sound of birds and insects, and he could only hear his own breathing, which was very strange and unnatural, as if he had arrived in another space.

The row of bungalows that was already close to the longitudinal one, Wu Fang didn't dare to slack off, and even cold sweat broke out. I can't tell why I suddenly get nervous, but I always feel that there will be something bad in it.

Standing in front of the door of the first room, Wu Fang faintly smelled a musty smell, mixed with the slightest moisture in the crack of the door, which was very eerie. Could it be that this house has not been used for a long time? No, during the day, I saw the lame black thin old man squatting at the door, and the door should have been hidden at that time, and the crack in the door was too narrow, but I didn't see the situation inside.

The iron doorknob was rusty, and Wu Fang felt very rough in his hand, and something like sand was stained all over his palm. He secretly tried his strength, and felt that the door was locked or pressed against something, so he slowly opened the safety of the pistol, and after taking a deep breath, he pushed the wooden door violently, and involuntarily crashed into it.

There was a chaotic noise, the wooden door shattered to the ground like paper paste, and the rotten broken wood slag mixed with thick dust hit Wu Fang's face. He suddenly exerted force just now as if he was pushed into the air, and the center of gravity of his entire body couldn't be contained, and he leaned forward immediately, fortunately he had spare strength, otherwise he would definitely be thrown into a rolling gourd.

Wu Fang was very embarrassed with his body half-arched, he pointed his gun forward, squinted his eyes to observe the interior of the hut, and suddenly the roots of his hair stood up, and less than two meters in front of him sat quietly A person sat quietly, very calm in appearance, and crossed Erlang's legs!

He took two steps back in shock, almost pulling the trigger uncontrollably, while stepping on the rotten door frame with an indistinct creepy crunch. That is to say, Wu Fang has rich experience and is used to seeing wind and waves, and if he were someone else, he would have been scared to pee.

The muzzle of the gun was pointed at the figure, and after taking a deep breath again, Wu Fang quickly calmed down, and his eyes gradually became clear. He suddenly realized that this figure was not a living thing, except for careful observation was a judgment of the breath, and the person opposite was definitely not alive at all.

How can there be a dead man in a good place? It seems that this place is not simple. Wu Fang was on guard, and gradually approached the other party, in order to prevent accidents, he did not turn on the flashlight. But at a distance of less than twenty centimeters, he suddenly froze, and then stretched out his left hand to grab the figure with a cloudy face, and almost fainted after the tentacle, this thing turned out to be a human-shaped wood carving!

Wu Fang felt ridiculous and humiliated like never before, and wanted to fly up and kick the wood carving in front of him, but reason made him quickly calm down, and looked around at this narrow hut, covered with thick dust and cobwebs, the furnishings were extremely simple, a pile of rotten wood, a dilapidated table, and the rest was this lifelike humanoid wood carving.

"Rely on your grandmother. Wu Fang cursed fiercely, for some reason, he was very reluctant to look directly at this extremely realistic, life-size wood carving, and there was an indescribable sense of disgust. But I have to admire such a superb level of carving, and seriously doubt that such a dilapidated small township factory will have such a capable person.

No, it's not that simple, the placement of the wood carving is facing the door, it seems to be intentional, that is, in the middle of the day, in this gloomy and dilapidated house, you will suddenly see such a strange thing and be afraid, is it just to intimidate? Wu Fang didn't think so, but had a small expectation in his heart, the first house was still like this, so what about the next few rooms?

Quickly inspected the hut on one side, and took a closer look at the wood carving, the thickness of the dust was obviously different, Wu Fang basically judged that the wood carving had only been placed in the past two days, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he retreated from the hut with a sneer.

The courtyard is as quiet as ever, the humid and dignified air adds a bit of depression to this small space, although it feels uncomfortable, but it makes Wu Fang's heart full of excitement before the battle, dare to pretend to be a ghost in front of Lao Tzu, see how to clean you up!
