Chapter 81: The Night Detective (Part II)

"Anyway, let's go in first."

The doors were closed, so we had to find a way to get in from somewhere else. All the courtyards in this alley are next to each other, and if you want to climb over the wall to get in, you have to climb through the low wall on the side.

We went around to the location of the low wall, and my buddy has not been the kind of worry-free master since he was a child, and he has done nothing to climb over the wall, so there is almost no challenge in facing this low wall. At the same time, for Cheng Qian, he has been trained by Mr. Cheng since he was a child, and his skills are also quite good.

He took a few steps back, then slammed one foot against the wall and jumped straight up. After hanging on the edge of the wall, he climbed up the wall with his arms propped up. He crouched down on the wall to meet me, and I took a few steps back and ran up the wall.

There is a large charcoal stack under this low wall, and almost every household in our place needs to prepare large pieces of charcoal for heating and cooking every winter. After we jumped into the yard with the help of the stack, the little girl came straight through the wall to us.

The courtyard was very large, and the whole courtyard was divided into two courtyards by a row of houses, the one we saw in front of it was very small. There are three rooms in the main house, two in the side room, and there is a door at the corner of the main house and the side room, which leads to the backyard.

At this time, there was no one in the courtyard, and the room was dark and there was no light. I turned my head to look at the little girl standing next to me and asked, "Is this it?" ”

The little girl shook her head and said, "No, this seems to be the place where they usually live, and my father is being held in a hut in the backyard. ”

"Cabin?"

Cheng Qian and I glanced at each other, and then walked into the small door on the side. And just as we walked to the door, there was a sound of "rustling" in our ears.

This is a familiar voice, when I lived in the orphanage, the conditions in the home were very poor, and I often saw rats swaggering past us. And at night, I can always hear rats squirming, so I'm sure there must be rats in the backyard.

When we got to the backyard, we found that the backyard was much bigger than the front, almost twice the size of the frontyard. And in that backyard there are no side houses, just six houses close to the backyard wall. The house was painted with black paint all around, and it was pitch black in the dim conditions at this time.

The little girl pointed to the row of houses and said, "This is where my father is being held." ”

As we walked into the little dark room, we faintly smelled blood. Cheng Qian approached the wall and sniffed it, and then said, "No wonder they can't get close, this wall is covered in black dog blood." ”

The so-called black dog blood does not refer specifically to black dogs, but to dogs in general. The dog is a spirit creature, he is quite sensitive to those things that are not clean, and the blood flowing from the black dog also has the effect of warding off evil spirits.

The windows were covered with black veil, so we couldn't see the inside when we stood outside.

"How do you usually come to your father?"

The little girl shook her head and said, "Normally, there is no black veil on this window when I come, why ...... today?"

As the little girl spoke, I suddenly felt a chill in my back. The chill slowly crept up my back, and it felt like a pair of eyes were staring at me from behind.

I subconsciously looked back, only to find that there was nothing behind me except the empty courtyard. The miserable moonlight sprinkled on the ground, and the yard was full of debris, but other than that, there was no human figure at all.

And just when I turned my head to look back, Cheng Qian obviously felt something, and he also turned his head and looked around your courtyard for a week but still didn't find anything.

"It's me who is nervous...... Anyway, let's open the door first. ”

This black dog's blood is useful to their souls, but it is of no use to us. But just as we stretched out our hands to open the door, we suddenly heard a "squeak" scream in our ears.

This sound is not like a human sound, Cheng Qian and I subconsciously went back to look again, but saw a huge gray-haired mouse standing in the moonlight. Its feet were crouched on the ground, and its whole body seemed to be standing upright.

It's the first time I've ever seen a mouse of this size, the size of a small cat, and its two gray-black eyes staring at us. It didn't seem to be afraid of the living, and just stood motionless in the courtyard and watched us.

But when we put our hands close to the doorknob of the house, the rat would convulse and scream unconsciously. This scream sounds very harsh, compared to the "groundhog" on the Internet.

"Such a big rat ......"

Cheng Qian wrinkled his brows and stared at the rat and said, "No, this rat is a warning." ”

"What do you mean?"

As soon as Cheng Qian's words fell, he saw the rat suddenly running towards the door. And just as he disappeared into the small doorway, I was standing in the backyard and heard the sound of unlocking from outside the courtyard gate.

"Oh no, the group is back."

Cheng Qian and I also hurried to the outer courtyard, and just as we ran out, we saw two people in brown jackets standing at the door. One of them has a slender gills, while the other is five big and three thick, and looks particularly sturdy.

Two people stood in the doorway, looking at us with a slight play.

"What do you guys do?"

The rat was lying on the thin man's shoulder, staring blank and motionless.

I still don't have enough social experience, and I was a little flustered when I encountered this situation, and at this time, Cheng Qian smiled and took a few steps back to the charcoal stack, and said, "Two big brothers, the two of us are also here to beg for food." ”

After hearing this, the thin man breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "I should think it is, two people who touch the skylight." ”

"The two eldest brothers are purely misunderstood...... Give us a way out, we'll never come back. ”

Cheng Qian pretended to be very similar to himself, so these two people didn't know what the purpose of our trip was. But obviously these two people didn't want to let us go, and at this moment, Cheng Qian gently pushed my arm.

"Are you sure to flip it out all at once?"

I nodded slightly, and we both moved toward the stack of charcoals, consciously or unconsciously.
