Zhu Youxiang said: "Of course it can't still be over there, I just want to go over and sense its demonic energy in person, so as to determine its characteristics." Although it may not be useful - forget it, I can't explain it clearly to Childe, but I will understand it when I go over there. ”

"Okay, let's go then. I contacted Wen Xiuzhi and asked him to help us arrange it. ”

Xu Yan called Wen Xiuzhi, and the phone was quickly connected, and Wen Xiuzhi's voice was very noisy, as if he was in a noisy venue or in the market. Wen Xiuzhi seemed to be dealing with a very tricky matter, and his voice was very urgent: "Hey, what's the matter?" Speak louder, we're noisy here, and we can't hear clearly. ”

Xu Yan simply said Zhu Youxiang's request, saying that he wanted to go to the base where Wang Zhongmao escaped from prison, Wen Xiuzhi hesitated, and then, he said: "Brother, because of the accident, the base has been closed for three days, the scene has been cleaned up, and the criminal investigation team of the Beijing Public Security has also investigated the scene, and brought several police dogs to track it, but they haven't found anything, and if you go to see it now, what's the point?" ”

In fact, Xu Yan was also confused about Zhu Youxiang's request. But Xu Yan knew that his female companion rarely did meaningless things, and since she had this request, there must be a reason, so Xu Yan could only say to Wen Xiuzhi: "The Criminal Investigation Corps has seen it, can't we watch it again?" ”

Wen Xiuzhi reluctantly agreed: "Okay, I'll negotiate with that side - brother, you don't know, the base is the first crime scene, and now it is still blocked, and even our people are under investigation, and we must investigate the person responsible for the accident." This place is more sensitive. ”

Xu Yan hung up the phone and found his military ID card in his luggage bag. said to Zhu Youxiang: "Let's go over." ”

The two took the elevator downstairs to the lobby of the hotel. I saw a young policeman wearing a police uniform and a police cap, sitting upright on the sofa in the hotel and reading a magazine. The policeman also saw Xu Yan, he immediately stood up, walked quickly to Xu Yan, and saluted Xu Yan dignifiedly.

Xu Yan took a closer look and found that the policeman turned out to be an acquaintance, but it was Bao Hui who was his driver yesterday. Seeing him, Xu Yan was a little surprised: "Xiaobao, you are already here?" I was just going to call you and call you - what. Didn't you come home last night? ”

Lieutenant Bao smiled innocently: "I'm afraid of delaying your work, Major, I didn't go back last night, and I've been on standby here, so as not to have no car when you want to go out, Major." ”

Xu Yan was surprised and guilty: "Ah, I'm really sorry, I should have told you last night and let you go back to rest--Could it be that you didn't sleep all night last night?" ”

Bao Hui smiled innocently: "No, for us." This kind of attendance is very frequent, and it is not hard at all, because the senior director has brought me a room here to live in, and let me rest here--by the way, Major. Are we going out now? Major, you and Miss Zhu wait a minute, I will drive the car to the door of the hotel. ”

Xu Yan, who was born in a civilian family, was really not used to this feeling of being served, so he still insisted on walking with Bao Hui to the parking lot behind the hotel and got into the car - the car was the same car that the senior director picked up Xu Yan yesterday. Xu Yan paid attention to it, and the license plate of the car was the license plate of the army. It is a number that starts with AA.

Noticing Xu Yan's gaze, Bao Hui smiled. He explained to Xu Yan: "This is the official car in the bureau, and Director Wen explained that it was specially reserved for you, the major." It's more convenient to hang up a military badge this time for official business - by the way, Major, where are you going? ”

Before Xu Yan could speak, the mobile phone in his pocket rang again, and he took it out to take a look, but the number was called by Wen Xiuzhi. He pressed the answer button: "Hello, Director Wen!" ”

Wen Xiuzhi's voice over there was still very noisy: "Hey, brother, the place you are going to, I negotiated for you, and the other side agreed to let you go, but some places are forbidden areas, you have to listen to other people's commands over there, don't walk around-uh, do you have anything special to do when you go there?" If so, tell me in advance, and I'll say hello over there. ”

Xu Yan glanced at Zhu Youxiang, but saw the latter sitting there quietly, silent, he had no choice but to say, "There is nothing special to do." If there's anything you need, I'll let you know when you're there. ”

"Okay~ Then I'll be-"

Seeing that Wen Xiuzhi seemed to be about to hang up the phone, Xu Yan suddenly thought of something, and he hurriedly asked: "By the way, the Cultural Bureau, the policy we discussed last night, did the municipal government and the Education Commission convey the notice to the school today?" ”

Wen Xiuzhi paused, and then, Xu Yan heard it, and the other party sighed on the phone: "The notice has indeed been conveyed, but ...... Alas, it's hard to put into words!

I'm here with the Municipal Education Commission right now, and I'm dealing with the clues that came up on the spot, but it's a mess...... The situation is much more complicated than we think. Okay, let's talk to you tonight. I'm hanging, and if you find anything on your side, call me in time - oh, by the way, do you know the way to that place? ”

"I don't know, but the driver's bag helps us drive, he should know, right?"

"Oh, is the bag with you? Give him the phone. I'll tell him how to get there. ”

Xu Yan handed the phone to Bao Hui, who took the phone, and after a few words with Wen Xiuzhi, he handed the phone back to Xu Yan, and he told Xu Yan: "Report to the major, I already know the place." ”

"Then go ahead."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Cars are driving on the roads in Beijing, but the speed is not fast -- it is more than eight o'clock, which is the time of rush hour for commuting, and the roads are crammed with all kinds of vehicles, and the cars can only follow the car in front of them at a slow speed on the road.

Xu Yan asked Bao Hui curiously, is the usual capital traffic jam so bad? The latter replied very seriously: "Major, this can no longer be called a traffic jam. During the rush hour at eight o'clock, it is already very lucky to have this speed. If you really encounter a traffic jam, you may not be able to move more than ten meters in an hour. ”

Because Xu Yan is not familiar with the traffic and road conditions in the capital, he doesn't know where Bao Hui is from and which road he is taking. But. Judging from the scenery on the side of the road and the flourishing of the merchants, Xu Yan can see it. The car was heading to the outskirts of the city. As cars move away from the city centre, there are fewer cars on the road. The car finally picked up speed and ran fast.

At about ten o'clock in the morning, the car finally got out of the Fifth Ring Road and entered the suburbs. The car left the road and drove into a suburban township. Then the car passed through a noisy bazaar, and drove on a dirt road for about ten minutes, and the people on the side of the road gradually thinned out, and traces of woods and wilderness appeared.

The car made a few turns in the wilderness, bypassed a forest, and a continuous building appeared in front of Xu Yan. In the distance, you can see a large courtyard surrounded by white walls and several buildings.

The car stopped at the door of the compound, and Xu Yan looked out of the car window and saw a sign hanging next to the door, which read, "Pyeongchang District Research Branch, Institute of Biotechnology, Beijing University." The iron door of the compound was tightly closed, and he couldn't see the situation inside, Xu Yan opened the window and waited for a while, but he heard that it was quiet inside, and there was no sound at all.

Bao Hui has obviously been here and knows the rules. He honked the car's horn a few times. One long, two short. Then after a few seconds, he honked the horn again and again.

After a while, a small window opened in the iron door. Someone looked out of the window, and I don't know if they recognized Bao Hui or the license plate, and the door was opened from the inside. The car drove straight in.

The car drove into the compound and parked in the parking lot. Xu Yan got out of the car. He looked at the row of buildings in the distance and felt that it was quiet. It was empty, without a trace of anger or human voices. He noticed a large black hole in the wall of a nearby building, and rubble and broken bricks were scattered all over the floor, which had not yet been cleaned up.

Looking at the hole, Xu Yan faintly knew in his heart that these damages should have been caused by Wang Zhongmao's escape from prison that day.

He was about to remind Zhu Youxiang to pay attention, but when he looked back, he found that Zhu Youxiang had already come out of the car, and his eyes were also staring at the hole.

At this time, someone came towards them from a distance. There were three men, led by a man in civilian clothes in a jacket, who was followed by two servicemen, both with automatic rifles in their hands.

The man walked in front of Xu Yan quickly, looked at Xu Yan and a few people, and finally, he set his eyes on Xu Yan, and said solemnly: "Is it Major Xu Yan of the Fourth Bureau?" ”

Xu Yan nodded: "It's me." Director Wen has contacted you, right? We wanted to come over here and take a look at the situation and get a feel for it......"

The man interrupted Xu Yan: "Major Xu, please take your documents and take a look first." ”

Xu Yan was stunned, but still took out his documents from his pocket. The man in the jacket took the document, looked at it very seriously for half a minute, and looked at Xu Yan several times to see if he matched the appearance of the person on the ID photo. Then, he nodded, returned the document to Xu Yan, and said very calmly: "Major Xu, I am Lieutenant Colonel Lin Tong from the Second Court of the Military Procuratorate. Your director, Wen Xiuzhi, did contact us and said that you wanted to come and collect some evidence at the scene, but he didn't say what evidence he wanted to take.

It stands to reason that this is the scene of the crime, the investigation and evidence collection at the scene are over, and you people from the four bureaus should not come to see it, and this time you are allowed to come in because of the request of Director Wen, we made an exception - by the way, Major Xu, what is your secret level? ”

"Secret?" Xu Yan was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted and said simply: "I am also a member of the task force, and I have the right to check all the information related to this case." ”

Lieutenant Colonel Lin Tong glanced at Xu Yan coldly, as if he was a little disapproving, and a little disdainful - Xu Yan was too young. He muttered a few times, and then said, "Okay, then you say, where are you going to look, what clues are you looking for?" You might as well say it in advance, I'll arrange it! ”

Where to find clues? How would Xu Yan know?

Seeing that Xu Yan didn't speak, Lieutenant Colonel Lin thought that Xu Yan was keeping it secret and refused to say it, so he said impatiently and in a deep voice: "There is a lot of information about the scene of the escape case, but the scene surveillance video and physical evidence have been collected on your side of the Fourth Bureau, you don't go back to the headquarters of the Fourth Bureau to watch the video, but come here - what else do you want to watch?" ”

Xu Yan glanced at Zhu Youxiang again, and at this time, he heard Zhu Youxiang's clear voice: "Childe, please tell him, we want to go to the scene of the crime to take a look." ”

So, Xu Yan repeated the repeater: "Lieutenant Colonel Lin, we want to go to the scene to take a look." ”

The lieutenant colonel Lin frowned slightly, but he didn't say no, but said lightly: "It's been two days since the incident, and the scene has also been investigated-you go over there, and you can't see anything." ”

Xu Yan said politely: "Thank you for mentioning it." But we still want to see it. ”

Lieutenant Colonel Lin shook his head, looking disapproving. But he turned sideways, made a gesture of please, and said, "Then, go over here - some of the areas inside are classified and are still cordoned off." Major Xu, after you go in, you have to listen to my command, there are some places that you can't enter or touch. ”

After receiving it, Lieutenant Colonel Lin took the lead and walked towards the main entrance of the building, but Xu Yan stopped him behind him: "Lieutenant Colonel!" ”

Lieutenant Colonel Lin stopped: "Huh? ”

Xu Yan pointed to the big hole in the gap on the side of the building wall, and said, "This hole was made at that time, right?" ”

Lieutenant Colonel Lin said lightly: "That's right, the target is to break through the wall from there - Originally, in order to prevent him from breaking through, an armed police squad on the periphery had already rushed over and was about to block the main entrance, but I didn't expect that guy to suddenly break through the wall from the side, and the armed police were caught off guard, killing and injuring many people." In the scuffle, there was a random shot, and the guy was shot a few times, but he jumped around the building alive and escaped over the wall over there. ”

Following the guidance of this Lieutenant Colonel Lin's arm, Xu Yan's gaze fell on the wall over there. Zhu Youxiang silently approached the hole, stopped and looked at it carefully.

Seeing Zhu Youxiang, Lieutenant Colonel Lin frowned: Previously, Zhu Youxiang came in with Xu Yan, but Xu Yan didn't take the initiative to introduce, he didn't take the initiative to talk to the other party's female companion, which would make him look very frivolous. Therefore, before, Lieutenant Colonel Lin had been talking to Xu Yan without squinting, and he didn't even tilt his gaze to Zhu Youxiang's side, just to avoid Xu Yan misunderstanding him frivolous.

But now, that beautiful girl not only entered the compound, but even entered the building in the forbidden area, so it was impossible for Lieutenant Colonel Lin to continue to pretend to be a saint - Xu Yan was an officer of the Fourth Bureau, yes, but this girl, he didn't see her ID.

"Hi, Major Xu, who is this woman? Is it also one of your four innings? ”

Xu Yan pretended not to hear his question, and also approached the hole, standing on the broken bricks and tiles all over the ground. Zhu Youxiang whispered: "It's okay, Childe - this place, you activate your spiritual sense and feel it." ”

"Feelings? What does it feel? ”

"Childe, meditate."

Xu Yan suddenly, he closed his eyes slightly, inhaled and exhaled for a while, and immediately felt something strange - usually when Xu Yan entered the state of meditation and cultivation, he could feel the aura running in his body, which made people feel physically and mentally happy.

But now, when he absorbed the aura, he felt that the air was filled with the smell of blood and violence, and there was a very choking and stimulating smell - of course, three days had passed since the incident, and even if there was any smell, it had already dissipated at this moment, and what Xu Yan experienced was just a mysterious feeling. But the feeling was so clear that Xu Yan wouldn't even have room to think it was an illusion.

Xu Yan opened his eyes, he nodded slightly at Zhu Youxiang, and the latter asked him, "Can you feel it?" ”

"I feel it, the aura is very chaotic, there is a very strong smell of blood, and it is very uncomfortable to absorb...... It's completely different from the usual aura exhalation. ”

Zhu Youxiang nodded: "Childe, everything has a spirit." Monsters do not belong to our world, so their existence is rejected by the rules of heaven and earth and cannot be tolerated in the world. The place it passes through will cause chaos in the aura of heaven and earth, just like what Childe felt, the aura of heaven and earth in this place has been tainted and is very chaotic.

When you sense this, it means that a monster is nearby - or has been haunted recently. Childe, the reason why I want to bring you here in person is to let you experience this for yourself. (To be continued......)
