At dinner time, Shen Xing had dinner with the members of the special investigation team in the canteen of the special investigation team building.

The food here is good, Xie Zongyu also asked the canteen to add two hard dishes, and was originally going to invite Shen Xing to drink two more cups, but because he still had something to do tomorrow morning, he had to give up for the time being.

At the dining table, Xie Zongyu used his mobile phone to connect to the internal private network in the office building, and logged in to the page where Zhou Dao advertised for Shen Xing's wood carving, and let Shen Xing look at it.

Immediately expressed a great interest in his wood carving, and asked Shen Xing to return to Yungu to send him a set of photos of wood carving after dealing with the case here, and he also wanted to choose it.

In fact, at the beginning, Shen Xing always thought that these special investigators were interested in their wood carvings purely because they admired their craftsmanship.

But in recent times, he has figured out the answer.

The craft of wood carving is secondary, and I'm afraid there is a more direct reason why these agents are interested in their own work, as most of them come from former anomalous prototypes.

And if Shen Xing absorbs the characteristics of the anomaly prototype and then carves out subsequent replicas, these replicas all contain a certain spiritual essence.

This kind of aura is purely a subtle sense of anomalous properties, and individual ordinary people will feel this kind of aura and then have a strong interest in these wood carvings, and the special investigators who specialize in dealing with anomalies are even more sensitive to this kind of spirit.

Although they don't know why they are attracted by wood carvings, the feeling and enjoyment of Lingyun make them unconsciously feel a kind of leisure, happiness and comfort, so they usually agree that Shen Xing's wood carving works are very beautiful and have great ornamental and collection value.

Of course, this kind of induction of spiritual essence is more common among special investigators, but it is not denied that ordinary people do not have induction into it.

Ordinary people, those who have studied and flaired for wood carving or some works of art, can also feel this comfort and beauty, and then fall in love with these wood carvings.

At night, Shen Xing stayed in the reception room of the apartment building of the special commissioner's building, and the living environment inside was not much worse than the hotel outside, and even looked cleaner.

The homes of the other special investigators are also here, and everyone usually gets along with each other, and it is very convenient to take care of their lives.

However, according to Shen Xing, the proper welfare housing here is much better than the treatment of the special investigators in Yungu City.

When he was about to go to bed at night, Xie Zongyu sent Shen Xing some pictures, all of which were the roots and wood he asked him to find, and asked Shen Xing to choose which one looked more pleasing to the eye and let someone send it over tomorrow.

Shen Xing looked at it, Xie Zongyu contacted the person who provided the wood, it should be a store specializing in this business, these woods have been polished in advance, and they are almost part of the roots, the incision is smooth, and some obvious tree bumps have been removed, which can be directly used to make and use.

He carefully selected for a moment, and chose a piece of cypress root, which was about half a foot long in diameter, not very large.

Xie Zongyu said that this piece of cypress root was given to Shen Xing by the special investigation team of Ping'an City, and he didn't have to pay, Shen Xing didn't shirk this, anyway, he had to clean up the dry well for them, and he wouldn't be too polite.

The next morning, it was raining for a while around six o'clock.

By the time Shen Xing, Xie Zongyu, Yang Tian and Zhang Zhi set off, although the rain had stopped, the sky was gray, and it seemed that there might be another rain later.

There were three rain gears in the car, but the task force did not follow, but all the members of the special task force, and the business car kept heading towards the outskirts of the city.

Shen Xing didn't know the specific direction, he sat by the window and watched the receding street scene outside the car, until only scattered houses could be seen on both sides of the road, and then there were fields, woods, and grass and trees.

About forty-five minutes later, the business car slowly stopped on the side of the road, Xie Zongyu opened the car door, found that the dirt on the side of the road was dry, and looked up at the sky, the sky here was relatively bright, and it couldn't rain for a while.

"The weather here is okay, so you don't need to bring an umbrella for the time being." He reminded.

Shen Xing and Zhang Zhi got out of the car, Yang Tian sat in the car, and said, "I won't go down, I have a shadow on that place." ”

"Then you sit in the car and rest." Shen Xing nodded.

From the side of the road you enter a small road, which is not narrow and can be used by vehicles if you have the money to build it and widen it.

Not long after passing through a small forest, a towering wall came into view, these bricks for building the wall were relatively new, and it was only a short time after they were piled up, the wall was about three meters high, and there were still people walking outside the wall at this time.

After getting closer, Shen Xing found that a temporary sentry box had been set up under the high wall, and there were two people in the uniform of a sheriff, both greeting Xie Zongyu and Zhang Zhi.

After greeting each other, the eyes of the two quickly turned to Shen Xing.

Xie Zongyu introduced them to each other.

One of the sheriffs returned to the box and took out three gas masks from a black suitcase.

Xie Zongyu took it and handed one to Shen Xing, reminding: "Before approaching the dry well, you must wear a gas mask to prevent inhaling the foul smell and falling into the calculation of the abnormality at the bottom of the well." ”

One of the sheriffs wrinkled his nose at this time and said, "When we are on patrol, we will also wear gas masks when we pass by the high wall that is closer to the dry well, otherwise we will be able to smell something strange from time to time." ”

Zhang Zhidao: "That's your illusion, the dry well is more than 30 meters away from the nearest high wall, and we have made an anti-escape treatment with plastic film at the side of the well, so it can't be transmitted to such a long distance." ”

The sheriff had long cheeks, commonly known as a horse's face, and was still slightly wrinkling his nose at the moment, and said with a smile: "I heard you say that it is quite terrible, it may have a psychological effect, every time I patrol outside that high wall, I feel a sense of fear and fear, and I always feel that I smell a foul smell." ”

As the words fell, the horse-faced sheriff turned around and asked his companion, "Have you ever smelled it?" ”

Another sheriff shook his head and said, "Every time I put my gas mask on my face and didn't smell it." ”

The horse-faced sheriff laughed: "You kid will put on the mask as soon as he patrols, in fact, there is still a hundred meters in a straight line between the old houses in our place." ”

At this time, Shen Xing noticed that there were four overlapping surveillance videos in the sentry box, and each surveillance video was lit, indicating that it was running.

He pointed to these surveillances, and before he could speak, Xie Zongyu had already explained: "Surveillance cameras are installed in Duan's house, two facing the dry well, one facing the front yard, and one facing the direction of the room. ”

Shen Xing nodded.

He had never worn a gas mask, and after putting it on with Zhang Zhi's help, the three of them walked together to the side of the high wall, where there was a double door, which was closed at this time.

Xie Zongyu took out the key, opened one side of it, and walked in first.

The key to enter the wall is only available to the members of the Special Investigation Team, and the sheriff outside is only responsible for patrolling to prevent nearby residents from approaching, and they do not have the key, so they cannot enter the wall.

Shen Xing was the second to enter, and Zhang Zhi walked at the rear.

After all three of them entered, Zhang Zhi immediately closed the door in the rear.

Inside the walls, it feels like another world compared to the outside, but it's actually well-lit and the air is still good.

It's just that Shen Xing and the three of them have already put on gas masks to prevent them from being eroded by that strange stench.

About ten meters away in front of him was the front yard of the Duan family, the courtyard gate was broken, and the courtyard wall had partially collapsed, allowing Shen Xing to see the equally dilapidated room at the back of the courtyard at a glance.

It is exactly the same as the photo Xie Zongyu showed him before, it can be seen that this place has not been touched since the accident, and everything remains the same.

Xie Zongyu was still at the forefront, and after entering the Duan family's old mansion, he held the half of the courtyard door that was about to fall completely for Shen Xing, and only after Shen Xing and Zhang Zhi passed through did he put down his hand.

After entering the courtyard, Shen Xing saw that the position that was blocked by a courtyard wall just now, and at this moment a dry well was revealed, and there were two broken cyan stone slabs not far from the dry well, most of which was covered with moss, and it may have been caused by the growth of some mold.

At this moment, the entire perimeter of the dry well, about two meters away from the center of the dry well, is held up with a metal bracket to a transparent cover, the cover looks impermeable, and the four perimeters are tightly integrated with the ground.

"Does this transparent plastic keep the stench out of the air?" Shen Xing asked puzzled.

Xie Zongyu replied: "Of course, it can't be 100% blocked, but it can be isolated from a large part. If you can isolate it all, believe me, no one should enter this containment at this moment, because the stench inside is enough to smoke people to death. ”

After a pause, he said, "Of course, according to our observations, the amount of odor emitted during the day is smaller, and at night, the smell will make you remember what you ate for the overnight meal." ”

At this time, he and Zhang Zhi naturally kept a certain distance after approaching the dry well, while Shen Xing was closer, but he did not lift the transparent cover for the time being, but observed the movement of the dry well through the cover.

Shen Xing noticed that a small electric rope pull device had been fixed to the edge of the wellhead outside the dry well, the light yellow rope looked extremely strong, and there was a special clip at one end of it that could hold paper and pens.

This is much more convenient than Liu Xiaokai manually pulling the rope with a nylon rope at the beginning, and it is more convenient to communicate quickly with the bottom of the well.

"That's what we installed later." Xie Zongyu explained.

Shen Xing nodded, didn't say anything more, walked to the side of the transparent plastic cover, and saw that there were two overlapping parts of the plastic cover, and one side could be directly lifted.

At this time, Xie Zongyu also walked over, and the two of them lifted the plastic cover one after the other and walked in.

Because he was wearing a gas mask and breathing clean, filtered air, Shen Xing didn't feel anything unusual.

He walked over to the side of the electric rope and looked to the bottom of the well, where it was pitch black.

Squatting down, he picked up a pen and paper and wrote two words on it: Hello, and then clamped it to the clip, and pressed the start button on the surface, which was marked with a downward symbol on one side.

The electric device is powered by a battery as the main energy source, and the battery can be replaced at any time.

The rope holding the paper and pen quickly fell down the well and soon disappeared.

For about ten seconds, there was a slight bend above the originally straight rope, indicating that it had descended to the bottom of the well.

Shen Xing glanced up at Xie Zongyu and found that Xie Zongyu's gaze had been staring at the rope that was not moving.

When he looked back, he saw that the rope was suddenly pulled.

"You can pull it up." Xie Zongyu said.

Pressing the upward start button, there is a rattling sound, and the device begins to roll in reverse, quickly rolling the rope upwards.

After a while, the paper and pen that were still clamped were revealed, but Shen Xing noticed that he had just wrapped the pen and the white paper together, but now the pen was clamped close to the white paper, and the white paper was also folded again.

This indicates that the anomaly at the bottom of the well completely removed the paper and pen as it returned to itself, and knew that it was a completely anthropomorphic action to fold it again.

In other words, it's highly likely that this guy is humanoid like the anomaly of the same sequence as it, or, to be more precise, resembles the black straight woman that came before.

Shen Xing picked up the clip and opened it, took out the white paper and spread it out, only to see that it was written: You are very special.

Looking at these four words, the corners of Shen Xing's mouth hooked, but his expression was blocked by the gas mask, and Xie Zongyu couldn't see it.

He quickly wrote under these four words: What is special? Are you also interested in one of my internal organs?

After holding the paper and pen with the clip again, put it down.

At this time, Xie Zongyu had been watching from the side and did not speak.

Zhang Zhi outside the isolation cover acted as a guard, his eyes wandering around the courtyard, and from time to time he looked in the direction of the dilapidated house, but still partly focused on Shen Xing's movements.

Soon the rope was pulled, Shen Xing pressed the start button, pulled the paper and pen up, opened the folded paper and took a look, it said: I am interested in you, not only your internal organs.

Shen Xing: Why?

Bottom anomaly: Because of your "happiness", it's complicated.

Shen Xing: Do you see what I want?

Bottom Anomaly: I see it, but I still don't know.

Shen Xing: Can you be specific?

Bottom Anomaly: I don't know who I'm communicating with right now, because I'm seeing you, but I'm sensing ......

Shen Xing: Can you finish the conversation? Maybe I can consider making a deal with you.

Bottom of the Well Anomaly: We can't trade, it's not you, it's me. I can't give you "joy".

At this time, Shen Xing's heart was even more confused, because he knew very well what he wanted, what he needed to know, and where the source of happiness was.

This is nothing more than what he has been investigating, about Ye Ting's whereabouts and about his own identity and memory.

However, at the other end of the well, at this moment, Xie Zongyu saw every word of Shen Xing's abnormal exchange with the bottom of the well, especially the abnormal reply, it was impossible to know Shen Xing's happiness, which made Xie Zongyu feel extremely surprised.

In other words, when the guy at the bottom of the well faced Shen Xing, he directly admitted it in terms of trading!?

This indirectly led to the abnormal forcing at the bottom of the well, which plummeted in Xie Zongyu's heart.
