Chapter 2: Figures on the Wall
The terrain inside the access bridge is much lower than outside the bridge, which explains why it is one of the most heavily flooded areas. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoWu Xi took out his camera, took pictures of this low-lying terrain, and then continued to observe carefully and slowly walked forward. "There are only two drains, and they are so small that when it rains, it will be easy to block it with garbage and debris that has accumulated from high places." While silently meditating in her heart, she used her camera to record these hidden dangers. Ticking, a drop of cold liquid fell on Wu Xi's back, startling her who was already tense nerves, she quickly turned around, and was slightly relieved when she found that it was just a drop of water secreted from the crack in the wall. "Tick." Another drop of liquid dripped into Wu Xi's hair, this time she ignored it, just wiped her hair lightly with her hand, and then squatted down again and began to concentrate on photographing the water level warning line on the wall of the passage bridge. However, "water droplets" didn't seem to be ready to let her go, and suddenly a series of ticks fell on her face and body, forcing Wu Xi to cover the top of her head with her hands and look up, but this look shocked her whole person.
Above Wu Xi's head, there was a figure pasted on the damp and gloomy wall, although the light was extremely dim, Wu Xi could still distinguish this shadow at a glance. She has begun to gradually become familiar with their appearance: dark pupils, full of unwillingness and resentment towards death. But this one, unlike anything she had seen before, looked young and handsome, and if you didn't pay attention to the big wound on his eyebrows. Because his skull seemed to have been pierced by something, from his forehead to the back of his head, there was a big hole, and bright red blood mixed with brains fell downward. So, what exactly is the liquid that just landed on the body? Wu Xi suddenly reacted and looked down at his hands, which were holding the camera, but they had already been dyed blood-red.
Wu Xi tried his best to suppress the fear and nausea in his heart, pretended to be nothing, slowly stood up, put the camera on his shoulder again, and slowly walked towards the exit of the passage bridge. "If he didn't know I could see him, he probably wouldn't have pestered me." She thought silently in her heart with a hint of luck, but the sound of rustling behind her seemed to break her barely disguised composure. Wu Xi could feel that the man was climbing on the wall above her head, following and watching her all the way, and even she only had to roll her eyes up slightly to meet his terrifying pupils.
Wu Xi clenched his fists tightly, his fingernails pierced his palms painfully, but it seemed that only by working hard like this could he support his body to move forward step by step, without being paralyzed on the ground or rushing forward quickly. It's almost there, it's almost there, the light at the entrance of the bridge is getting louder and louder, and the voice behind her seems to have disappeared, which gives her joy and hope, he should have let her go. Just as she could re-enter the dazzling light with a few more steps, "tick", her left shoulder instantly became wet with the last thing she wanted to hear. Wu Xi subconsciously turned his head, impartially, facing the pale and oozing face, because of the foil of the blood hole on his forehead that was close to black and red, so this face looked extraordinarily white, Wu Xi didn't know that her strong nerves had collapsed in an instant, so she let out a scream and rushed out of the bridge hole.
Wu Xi rushed all the way forward, and vaguely heard someone calling her behind her, but she didn't dare to stop no matter what. "If you don't stop standing I'm going to call the police, hey, what about you, little girl." The volume behind it increased dramatically. "Police...... The police? Hearing the familiar accent of D City and the word police, Wu Xi slowly stopped and turned his head, only to see a uniformed cleaner standing behind her with his hands on his hips: "I said how can you run faster than a rabbit, and there is no fox chasing you, and ah, don't you see the cordon, how can you casually enter the scene of the crime?" ”
Wu Xi and the cleaner uncle sat on the curb of the road, holding a bottle of mineral water in one of their hands. After revealing their identities to each other, they both felt the need to sit down and take a breath. Wu Xi wanted to tell him what happened to her in the bridge cave, but she was surprised to find that her bloodstained hands were clean and there was nothing, as if everything that happened just now was her hallucination, so she swallowed the words that came to her mouth. If she really told the cleaner what she saw, people probably wouldn't believe that she was a journalist, but would have asked the police to send her to a mental hospital.
After pouring half a bottle of water in one go, the old man began to give full play to the unique eloquent specialty of the people of City D: "Hey, I said that you girl, although you are a reporter, you can't force yourself to break through the cordon." Since this police comrade did not remove the cordon, he said that he still had to come to investigate and collect evidence, and they also specifically told me that idle people should not go in, and that if I encountered suspicious people, I should report to them in time......
Wu Xi looked at his two mouths and suddenly felt that something was wrong. "Wait, uncle, what you just said means the police haven't solved the case yet? But as far as I know, isn't it just drowning here, how can you still solve the case? And it's been so long. "Oh, look at my mouth, the older I get, the more I don't guard the door, and the police comrades won't let me say it......" "Uncle, just tell me, I promise I won't say it and won't report it, I'm afraid of being invited to tea by the police uncle, you have said half of it, don't lose my appetite, I'm naturally curious." Wu Xi saw at a glance that this old man was probably crazy about this matter, and he couldn't wait to find someone to talk to, so he begged him. Sure enough, the old man's eyes swept left and right, covered his mouth and whispered in Wu Xi's ear: "I'll tell you one person, don't tell me." Wu Xi hurriedly agreed, and the old man then lowered his voice and whispered: "Hey, this thing is really strange, guess what, the news report only said that the water drowned someone, and this drowned should have drowned, but this person has not been found yet." ”
"Didn't find it?" Wu Xi asked loudly, so frightened that the old man hurriedly signaled her to lower the volume, so she quickly covered her mouth and whispered into the uncle's ear: "How is it possible, no...... Isn't it just that the water flooded the car and drowned the people, just such a big place, this is still the city center, and the sewer is so small, how can you not find people? "Who's to say no, I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, but that day, I happened to witness the whole thing happening."
