Chapter Ninety-Three: Ghost City
The figure hidden by the wall of the villa hesitated in place, hesitating to take a step but retracted it before it could be implemented. The man looked straight at the figure that came out of the vines with his eyes www.biquge.info stood there for a long time before turning to leave.
Xie Jiuli just closed the door for a moment, his eyes swept inadvertently, and he suddenly saw a familiar figure flashing. I thought it was an illusion, but when I thought about it, I thought it wasn't. Now that he asked, seeing the expression of the Van Palace without surprise, Xie Jiuli smiled without a trace and said, "Why didn't you ...... at that time?"
"Why don't I go in front of you?" Van Gong lowered his eyes, making it impossible to see what expression was on his face at this time. I only heard him say sullenly: "I originally planned to do this." If you ask me something, how will I answer?"
That basement, if you can't enter it, you can't see the curiosity that falls on your heart mysteriously, after all, it is not the reason why the Van Palace can tell Xie Jiuli. Xie Jiuli naturally understood, so he didn't continue the topic. I was about to say something, but I heard a series of mobile phone ringtones.
Fan Gong escaped from his jacket pocket, and Xie Jiuli saw that the expression on his face froze instantly. Then I saw the Vatican press answer and put the phone to his ear.
"Any news?" asked the palace in a deep voice. After a long silence, I saw him and said, "Okay, I'll be there soon." ”
Xie Jiuli, who didn't know why, looked at him and asked, "What's wrong, is something wrong?"
Van Gong looked at him and said, "A commission we received recently has now made a new discovery, and I need to go to the scene to see it." Are you going?"
The special natural invitation of the Van Palace made Xie Jiuli stunned, and said, "Aren't you very busy all day, and you still have so much time and energy to focus on 'Xue Mang'?"
Van Gong said: "The things in the mall are no more exciting than the ones that 'Xuemang' comes into contact with, except for major matters that need to be decided, I leave the rest of the time to others to take care of." ”
Xie Jiuli said: "You are very chic." ”
"I'm going to have to worry about this little thing, even if I have three heads and six arms. Fangong stood up and straightened his clothes, looked at Xie Jiuli and said, "Let's go." ”
Xie Jiuli said: "I didn't promise you, besides, I haven't come back yet!"
The Van Gong seemed to be in a hurry, and directly reached out to pull Xie Jiuli's arm, and said while dragging him towards the door: "You will not be in danger if you have my people." Send a message to Tsuba. ”
Xie Jiuli was dragged out of the door and into the car of the Van Palace, looking disheveled, and was looked at all the way, quite embarrassed. Stay in the co-pilot seat, while fastening the seat belt, he said dissatisfied: "You're too anxious, aren't you? I don't know and think I've been kidnapped by you!"
The palace turned from the side road of the community to the avenue with the steering wheel on the steering wheel. "Is there such a gentle kidnapping as I am?"
Xie Jiuli snorted, and then asked, "What commission did you receive? Could it be that some place is haunted?"
While driving, the palace said, "It's not haunted, it's haunted!"
Xie Jiuli's eyes widened, he had only heard of the market, but he had never heard of the city. "What's a haunted market? a whole bunch of ghosts selling as vendors?"
Van Gong glanced at him meaningfully and said, "I never knew that you had such a big brain!" He paused, and then said: "The ghost city I am talking about is not what you think! The commission we received this time came from a colleague in our industry, and a large number of dead corpses suddenly appeared in his county, causing the locals to panic. The police couldn't solve it, so they entrusted us with an investigation. We thought it was an ordinary monster murder, but when we got to the scene, we realized that it wasn't!"
Xie Jiuli asked, "What is that?"
The palace said: "Those dead bodies have not just been killed, but dried corpses that have been dead for at least 30 years! We felt that this matter was strange, so we sent people to station there to investigate, but later the people we sent disappeared inexplicably! So far, at least a dozen or so are missing, and they do not know whether they are alive or dead. ”
Xie Jiuli glared at him in surprise and said, "Then what does this have to do with the ghost city you talked about?"
Fangong sighed and said, "That's because those corpses will gather once in a while, and then they will appear in various places in that county on a large scale, just like rushing to the market." Strangely, however, few of the citizens have lost their lives as a result. ”
Xie Jiuli said: "Don't they kill people?"
Van Gong shook his head and said, "The reason is now investigating, and it's hard to say what the result will be." It's just that there is a new development in this investigation, so I am anxious to take a look. ”
Xie Jiuli said: "Do you think it could be some kind of night walk of a hundred ghosts?
Van Gong said: "Those dead corpses have no autonomous consciousness, and their movements are single, and they are definitely not spontaneously formed into this bizarre phenomenon. From the very beginning, we felt that the actions of these dead bodies were the result of covert manipulation. But what the exact reason is, it is not yet known. ”
Xie Jiuli pondered for a while before he said, "Only the people who disappeared or died during the investigation were insiders, and even if the citizens saw it, their lives were not in danger, right?"
Van Gong was stunned for a moment and said, "That's true." ”
Xie Jiuli's eyes lit up and said, "Did you say it was for you?"
Fangong's expression moved, his eyes stared at the front with deep eyes, and he said for a while: "We always thought that the people we sent were missing because of the investigation, and very few people among the citizens would die because of this, so we didn't think about it. Now it seems that what you said is not impossible. ”
Xie Jiuli nodded and said, "Then did you find any major clues this time?"
Fangong said: "I don't know if it's a major clue, but I heard them say that they found out the approximate location of those dead bodies." Presumably find the source and start investigating, and there will be results soon. ”
Xie Jiuli smiled and said, "You said that it was the commission of your peers, didn't your peers do the same thing as you?
"It's not what you think. There are very few organizations like ours that actually make it to the end. The things we deal with are too demanding of people, and where can ordinary people do it? No matter how much we are paid, we can't necessarily find a good hand, let alone those smaller groups. Usually they will break up or die within a few years. ”
Xie Jiuli asked, "What's the difference between a private person like you and a government?"
A sneer appeared on the mouth of the Fan Palace, and said, "Those people in the government, if you see them, you will understand what kind of villain they are!"
Xie Jiuli sighed, shook his head and said, "There is a story here......" (To be continued.) )
