Chapter 35: The Wall of Air
When Anne saw Inferno getting out of the car, her first reaction was to turn around and leave, but was stopped by Betty. What the hell is going on, Iannie thinks that every time she sees this secret commissioner, it will be fine!
Betty had only seen Inferno on the day Iannie was in a coma and hospitalized, but their job was to have this ability to remember people, not to mention that Inferno was very handsome, and generally speaking, women would not easily forget when they met once. At that time, Yi Annie had an accident, and her roommate contacted several people, and Inferno was among them, indicating that his relationship with the motion must be unusual.
Whatever Betty thinks, for Anne Ianne, the presence of Inferno in the context of such a homicide investigation clearly indicates that there is a ghost in the events of this serial murder. This ghost is not an "inner ghost", but a literal "ghost"!
"Someone you know?" Xiande put on a smile that made people guess the meaning, and looked at the two girls outside the cordon playfully.
The older one was very beautiful and excited when she saw Inferno, while the other girl she was pulling had a stinky face with "Let me go!" written all over her face. That's a lot of fun.
"Let them in." Xiande waved his hand, although he was not very old, he saw a lot of people. When Inferno, the exorcist he hired with a lot of money, saw Yi Annie, a wave of waves on his face, he knew that there must be some story in it, and before Infernor could speak, he sold this favor first.
Receiving the golden words of Xiande, Betty pulled Anne towards the gap between the security guards and the police. When passing by Matthew, he made a triumphant gesture, and then pulled Victor to the side and entered the area of the apartment building surrounded by the cordon.
Passing through the crowd at the door, Yi Annie's eyes suddenly brightened.
Betty pulled Anne and trotted over to Cinder: "Hello, I'm Betty, this is Anne and Victor, and Anne is an old friend of Mr. Exorcist." ”
Yi Annie was speechless, the first time she and Inferno met was just a week ago, where did the "old friend" come from? And although we have known each other for a week and met a few times, I haven't said a few words at all.
She turned her head to look at Inferno, who was standing on the side, and the other party glanced at her coldly, and "snorted" I don't know whether it was recognition or disdain.
Pretending to be familiar is Victor's strength, and it is also the temporary foundation of his intern, and he also stepped forward: "Hello, Mr. Xiande, it is an honor to meet you, and Mr. Inferno, I often hear Anne mention you!" ”
"Uh......" Iannie continued not to speak, she had never mentioned Inferno to Victor.
At this time, a police officer trotted over from the door of the apartment building and looked at the group of people around Xiande: "Mr. Xiande, you can go inside, you are talking about the exorcist ......"
Xiande turned to look at Inferno: "Let's go." ”
With that, he walked straight to the door of the apartment building, followed closely by two big-shouldered and round-waisted security guards.
Inferno said, "It's just right that you're here." ”
Betty and Victor were a little puzzled by this, and Anne suddenly became a little creepy, she always felt that Inferno was saying it to her.
Thinking of this, she immediately said to Betty: "Betty, I seem to have something going on at home, you two go......"
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Betty gave Victor a color, and the latter understood in seconds that they were able to enter here, as if thanks to Iannie.
Victor took a step on his long legs and grabbed Yi Annie in two steps: "Annie, it's all here, go in and have a look, this is a big task for the news center!" ”
Ignoring Yi Annie's own wishes, he dragged her into the apartment building.
It is said that it is an apartment building, but in fact, this apartment building has only a two-story structural framework for the time being, but even if it is just this frame, you can feel the grandeur of the completed building.
The entrance door is very empty, it should be a reception hall, the hall as a whole is circular, and the height of this structure may be more than three floors. There will probably be a fountain in the middle of the hall, with several water pipes running across the middle, and an octagonal prefabricated structure next to it. Two curved staircases wind down the contours of the hall, temporarily paved with only ordinary wooden planks for workers to climb and descend. The left and right wings of the building stretched far away, and it was not easy to see how big the apartment compartments would be.
Of course, the most shocking thing is the red liquid that flows from the stairs on the left side, all of which has been soaked into the wooden planks of the stairs, and it is basically impossible to wash off.
The large patch of red that would open the door attracted everyone's attention, and it took a moment for Anne to notice the black evidence signs placed here and there. The number of floors is not very large, mainly in the hall, and the outlines of the evidence circled with chalk next to the signs are relatively small, probably bullet casings and the like.
The officers handed out shoe covers and gloves to several people before leading them up the stairs on the right.
At first, Betty and Victor are left behind, covering each other and secretly taking pictures with their phones. Later, I heard from the police that the second floor was the scene of the shootout, so I immediately followed them upstairs.
After Yi Annie saw the large pool of blood on the stairs, she began to feel a little out of breath, and took a deep breath, feeling that the air at the entrance had a strong smell of blood, which made her even more uncomfortable.
So she stood at the top of the stairs and said to the people above, "I'm not feeling well, so I'm not going up." ”
Only then did Betty realize that the upstairs might be an even more terrifying Shura field, and after thinking about it, she went downstairs and stood beside Yi Annie: "I ...... I'll be with Anne below. ”
The others were noncommittal, letting them stay down and rest, and they continued on their way up.
It wasn't until a few people went up the spiraling staircase and disappeared at the top of the staircase that Anne suddenly had some doubts: "Who is the person behind Victor?" ”
Betty was walking downstairs with her back to them, and when she looked up, she saw that the men were gone.
Betty said: "There is no one behind Victor, he is already at the end." ”
Yi Annie recalled that among the people who went upstairs, the first one who walked was the police officer who led the way, the second was the awe-inspiring Inferno, then the green-haired Xiande and his two sturdy bodyguards, and then the only two women in the team, Betty and Victor, who looked like a long bamboo pole, each with obvious characteristics.
Later, Betty, who was walking in the penultimate place, came downstairs, and the order of the first few people did not change.
Since Victor was too tall, he was also very recognizable, but she clearly remembered seeing that after Victor's figure disappeared at the top of the stairs, there was a man who was much shorter than him.
Talking about this to Betty, Betty smiled: "You probably read it wrong, or the police officer who walked in the front let the people behind go to the front." ”
Yi Annie thought that this theory was reasonable, but she still frowned and thought: "But...... Why is that secret commissioner Inferno here, he can't have come here to exorcise demons, right? ”
Betty seemed to suddenly realize at this time: "What? You say there's a ghost here? ”
Yi Annie glared: "First, that murderer killed so many people; Second, there had just been a shootout here in the morning that killed a lot of people; The most important point is that there are exorcists here...... Don't you ever watch horror movies?! ”
Betty shook her head: "I never look. ”
Yi Annie covered her face: "You don't watch horror movies because you're afraid of ghosts?" ”
Betty continued to shake her head: "I haven't seen it, so I don't know if I'm afraid of it......"
Yi Annie had nothing to say about this: "Alas, anyway, because Ferno is on it, even if the people who follow Victor are ghosts, there probably won't be any danger." ”
After that, she sat on the steps and played with her mobile phone, and the vegetables she planted in the mobile game version of the animal forest before going out in the morning seemed to be ready to be collected.
Betty began to take pictures of the exhibits on the ground in a bright light.
The login interface of Dongsen has been moving for a long time, and Yi Annie looked at the top bar of the mobile phone, and there is no network here. She didn't expect WIFI, but Changhu Park is not far from the city, so there is no data network.
"Betty, do you have internet on your phone?" Anne asked Betty, and then took out the Canon camera in the press center to check the data stream, and saw that there was no network.
Betty sighed: "It's really out of the net, it's all right now." ”
Yi Annie let out a "groan" in her heart, grabbed Betty and walked out. The apartment was now ventilated on all sides, with no doors or windows, but Anne felt that the air in the hall was cloudy, and there was not a trace of wind.
"Oops!" Anne slammed her head in front of the door of the apartment building, and there was nothing in front of her, but it was as if a wall of air was blocking her path.
Betty looked at Yi Annie who was covering her forehead in amazement, and reached out to reach ahead, obviously it was just air, but it seemed to have infinite resistance. She hammered the wall of air in front of her again, and it shook her hands.
Looking out, a group of reporters were still stopped by the police behind the cordon, trying to persuade the police to let them in for interviews and photos.
"Hey! Police officer! Matthew! Someone! Help! Betty continued to yell as she hammered the wall.
Anne's ears ached from Betty's screams, but the people outside didn't respond.
She came to the top of the stairs and shouted, "Victor! Inferno! You're not here! ”
There was no response from above, and it seemed that there were only two people left in the whole world, her and Betty.
"Shall we try another exit?" Betty pointed to the end of the wings of the building and proposed, "I'll go to the left, you go to the right?" ”
Yi Annie really saw that Betty had never watched a horror movie: "At this time, it's better for the two of us to stay together, and in most horror movies, it's easier to have an accident if you go alone." ”
Betty nodded ignorantly: "Okay, then let's go to the left together." ”
Although the two of them were destined for an exit at the end of the building, after a space that would be turned into an apartment in the future, Anne pulled Betty inside and tried the windowless hole in the exterior wall. It was also sealed off by an air wall, and theoretically, the exit at the end of the building probably did the same.
Yi Annie sighed: "It's not even noon outside, it's starting to be haunted, isn't this ghost's resentment too strong...... However, it is also possible that the ghost was caused by Ferno, such as setting up an enchantment to prevent the ghost to be caught from escaping. ”
Betty's heart, which has never been stimulated by horror movies, is still very big: "This apartment is so big, and the view on the first floor is very good, and when it is built, I will look at the rent, and it is not bad to live here." ”
