Pucheng City and Linshan City are not far away, only more than 200 kilometers.

It only takes less than an hour to get there by plane, although it is not troublesome for Xia Ren himself, with his identity as an A-level investigator and the title of legend, he only needs to take out his black mobile phone and talk to the mastermind, but in that case, there will inevitably be a large number of logistics personnel who will get up in the middle of the night and continue to be busy because of their own travel.

For this little thing, Xia Ren didn't want to trouble others too much, especially when he had just experienced such an accident during the day, his emotions became a little sensitive, and he even cared about these details, so he just contacted the local logistics department, reported his identity as an A-level investigator, and borrowed a car.

They came out of Kangle Villa and walked to a deserted suburban road, where the commander of the logistics unit of Linshan City happened to arrive in a black car.

"Hello, here's the key."

The other party is a woman in her thirties, and her demeanor has a calm temperament that she has cultivated for a long time, and she doesn't talk too much nonsense.

Xia Ren took the key and looked left and right: "Are you coming by yourself?" How are you going to get back? ”

The other party smiled and said, "I have already contacted someone to pick it up, please don't worry." ”

"That'll do."

Qin Yun hugged Lily into the back seat of the car, Lu Yi stood by the car and hesitated for a moment, and sat directly in the front seat of the main driver who was not yet there.

"Thank you."

Xia Ren didn't pay attention to what was going on behind him, thanked the commander of the logistics unit, and then sighed, forgetting to glance at the path when he came up, and said, "This land of Kangle Villa, no one should have bought it yet, right?" ”

The captain thought for a few seconds and asked, "You want?" ”

"Yes."

"As far as I know, this land is deserted enough that no one should have taken it yet, and if you want, we can talk to the original owner, who will be more than happy to sell it."

The captain looked at Xia Ren's eyes and said with some curiosity: "Forgive me for taking the liberty of asking, what do you want this land to do?" ”

Xia Ren lowered his head, took a deep breath, and said, "Before it was converted into a hotel, this was a private house for a certain family, and I wanted to rebuild the house as it was, and the layout inside was still the same as when it was originally built. Can it be done? ”

The captain pondered: "As long as you find the original drawings, it shouldn't be difficult, I'll go back and help you check it." ”

Xia Ren smiled and said: "That's troublesome, if you can, contact me then, and I will pay for the land and the cost of building the house." ”

The cost of buying land is not too expensive, plus the construction cost, according to today's market price, it is at least one or two million.

Even if he doesn't use the Foundation's money, he now has hundreds of thousands of monthly manuscript fees, and it is affordable to pay in several installments.

Money doesn't mean much to Xia Ren now, but this house is of great significance, and he wants to use his own money.

The captain did not refuse, and directly agreed.

"The day after tomorrow at the latest, I will take the initiative to contact you."

"Thank you."

Xia Ren nodded, turned around and wanted to drive, but saw that Lu Yi was already sitting in the driver's seat.

"You know how to drive?"

He asked through the window.

"Huh?"

Lu Yi touched the steering wheel, a little overwhelmed, "I, I don't know." ”

Qin Yun hugged Lily and laughed in the back seat.

Lu Yi lacks common sense in some aspects, which she has known for a long time, but it feels more interesting, so she didn't remind her just now.

"......" Xia Ren.

"You sit in the co-pilot, there is a chance to let Qin Yun teach you how to drive, maybe you will use it in the future."

"Oh."

Lu Yi pouted her ass embarrassedly and climbed from the central armrest to the co-pilot's seat.

Xia Ren wanted to remind her to get out of the car and go around, but Lu Yi's movements were relatively quick, and he had already climbed over by himself before he could speak, Xia Ren sighed and had to give up.

What environment did she live in?

This thought only circled in Xia Ren's head, and then was thrown out of his mind.

……

……

The car was speeding down the highway, and more than two hours later, Xia Ren had already arrived in Pucheng.

At the entrance of the highway, he saw a shed erected by the Dispute Arbitration Court, and several people in it should be personnel of the Foundation's logistics department, with his third-level perception ability, Xia Ren could detect strange fluctuations coming from the shed, which should be used to detect pollution.

The first time he came to Pucheng, he opened the car window, and he could smell that the air here was exceptionally fresh, it had just snowed during the day, and the plants in the green belt on the side of the road were covered with a layer of snow, growing extraordinarily luxuriantly, not at all like a winter state.

After all, Pucheng is the hardest hit area by atypical insect phobia.

A few minutes after coming out of the highway, Xia Ren's black mobile phone rang again, it was Niu Changshou calling.

According to the address he provided, Xia Ren and his party came to a private hospital near the city center in Pucheng.

Along the way, he saw many people wandering in the empty streets, and they all looked depressed, as if they couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, and went out for a walk.

At night, all the lights in the hospital's outpatient building were turned off, some windows were not closed tightly, and the wind blew in, and the curtains swayed from side to side, faintly revealing the vague outline of the room.

From time to time, there was a strange noise in the building, the sound was very slight, like the howl of a person, and also like the painful moan of some beast, if it weren't for Xia Ren's keen senses, he wouldn't have been able to detect it at all.

If the crew of any horror film comes here to shoot, there is no need to arrange it, and you can shoot it directly.

But fortunately, the street lights were still on, and the door of the hospital was open, so Xia Ren drove in directly and parked the car in the parking space in front of the outpatient building.

As soon as he got out of the car, Niu Changshou suddenly jumped out of nowhere and greeted a few people.

Following Niu Changshou, there was also an assistant in a white coat carrying a small bag of things in his hand.

"Brother Ren, I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss it very much, hahahaha."

Niu Changshou said with open arms, and when he came up, he was about to hug.

Xia Ren sneered, his hands clenched into fists, and his fingers clicked.

"It's been a long time."

"Uh......"

Seeing his dangerous look, Niu Changshou stopped: "Brother Ren, this is?" ”

Xia Ren pointed at Qin Yun next to him with his chin: "I brought it to you, what are you going to do with her?" ”

"Huh?"

Niu Changshou looked at Qin Yun and immediately understood something, but he still pretended to be full of doubts and said, "Brother Ren misunderstood, I said it wasn't this sister." ”

"Harm, let's not mention this yet."

Niu Changshou then changed the topic and said, "You haven't eaten since you came here in the middle of the night, have you?" I have buns here, so I'll put a pad on it first. ”

He turned around and took out a few steaming buns from the pocket that his helper was carrying, and distributed them to Xia Ren and a few of them.

As soon as Lily got her hand, she swallowed it in one gulp, and sucked her fingers with great satisfaction.

Lu Yi also took a small bite.

Qin Yun held it in his hand and didn't move.

"What's this stuffing?"

Xia Ren didn't eat either, so he asked first.

"Vermicelli stuffing, just baked, it tastes good, try it."

was already hungry, Xia Ren didn't suspect him, after two or three bites, the vermicelli stuffing, the taste was really good, and the amount of meat was very large.

Niu Changshou then turned back to the topic: "What I said on the phone before was actually this young lady. ”

"Huh?"

With a bun in his mouth, Lu Yi, who wanted to be a pendant quietly, saw that everyone's eyes suddenly focused on him.
