Chapter Seventy-Six: The Day of Check-in

Wei Chiran looked at the photo of the search above the data, and threw the data directly on the table: "I'm used to acting alone, isn't it the same for a lone soldier?" Otherwise, why is it called a lonely army? ”

Wei Chiran was actually afraid of Fang Xunyi's dual personality.

"You can pretend not to know him, and you have to do it." ”

Wei Chiran just sneered, he knew that there was still a long way to go before the mystery was finally revealed, and now he was just like when he was in the police academy before, a student. It's still in the learning stage, and then it's an internship, and finally it's the official completion of the course, becoming a qualified lone soldier, and then you can really start digging into the truth.

Wei Chiran calmed down his complicated thoughts, returned to the clue of the Dragon's Tower, and asked, "In addition to the names of the three brothers and sisters of the Xiang family, I have a question. ”

Early Summer seems to be able to read minds: "You have doubts about the time of Xiang Jingdi's death, right?" ”

Wei Chiran said: "Xiang Jingdi was already terminally ill when he entered the Tower, and the information said that he could only live for three months, but why did he live for another two years after entering that building?" He died two years later shortly after leaving the Tower, what was the reason for this? ”

Chu Xia said: "He had liver cancer at the time, and it was an advanced stage, and he definitely couldn't live too long, and this hospital also confirmed, but he really lived in the dragon tower for two years, and when he came out again, he was immediately admitted to the hospital, and he died not long after, and the hospital found that he was still in the advanced stage of liver cancer, but I don't know why he lived for two more years, which is still a mystery." ”

What exactly is the secret of this building? It seems that he has to start with the history of this building, and even the history of the jungle, of course, these are things that Wei Chi Chi can't do, because he has to enter the dragon tower early tomorrow morning, and he can only leave the matter of investigating the historical background to Chu Xia.

It's strange to say, after returning from China, there were strange changes in early summer, most of the time she became very gentle, and she no longer spoke coldly to Wei Chiran, and even began to cook and clean, and before going to bed at night, she also made the bed for Wei Chiran.

Before falling asleep, Wei Chiran stood on the edge of the bed and watched, turned his head and called out to the early summer passing outside: "Early summer, this is a double bed, right?" ”

Chu Xia looked at Wei Chiran, was slightly stunned for two seconds, and then just said, "I'll go take a bath." ”

Wei Chiran just smiled, but he didn't expect him to be frightened by his joke, because more than half an hour later, Chu Xia actually walked in in pajamas, and naturally went to bed and lay next to Wei Chiran.

Wei Chi Chi turned his head to look at Chu Xia: "You're not, aren't you?" I'm kidding. ”

Chu Xia just looked at the ceiling and said in a flat tone: "Whether it is for pure-bloods or lonely, my responsibility is to take care of you, so I will try my best to meet your requirements, and I understand you, it is normal to be in your twenties, but I want to remind you that there can be physical impulses between the two of us, but there should be no emotional communication." ”

After saying this, Chu Xia turned his head to look at Wei Chiran again, showed a gentle smile, and then stepped forward to hold Wei Chiran's face and kiss it.

When his lips were about to touch together, Wei Chiran dodged it, because at that moment, a picture from the past flashed in front of Wei Chiran's eyes, and this picture was inserted into his most painful acupuncture point like a needle.

Chu Xia looked at Wei Chi Ran who was standing directly beside the bed in surprise, and he didn't know why.

Wei Chi said: "You misunderstood, I don't need it." ”

Chu Xia also immediately got up: "Okay, you can call me if you need to, you can do it at any time." ”

Wei Chi watched Chu Xia leave, and then sat on the edge of the bed, covering his face, trying to erase the fragments that flashed through his mind.

It was also a memory that Wei Chiran didn't want to think about the most.

Back in the early summer of another room, lying in bed, another memory also came to her mind, and she repeated three words - sorry.

Early the next morning, Wei Chi got up to wash, ate the breakfast made in early summer, and rode directly to the city of the two realms, in front of the Dragon's Tower.

This is the first time Wei Chiran has seen this strange building made of cement boxes, except for a door downstairs, the whole building has no windows, the surface maintains the original color of cement, and there is no paint or tiles or anything, it looks very seeping.

A three-meter-high wall was erected around the perimeter of the tower, and there was also a power grid on the wall, but only a small door was left for one person to enter and exit, and Xiang Hua, who was in a suit and leather shoes, stood at the door and waited.

"Mr. Zhu." Xiang Hua stepped forward to greet Wei Chiran with a smile on his face, and took the travel bag in Wei Chiran's hand.

Wei Chi looked up: "This is the dragon, no, Di Minglou." ”

Xiang Hua said with a smile: "The name of the Dragon's Mansion was given by the outside world, because it is rumored that there are monsters in this building, but this is the Xiang family's property after all, Mr. Big doesn't like this title, you don't have to worry about it, this building has been safe and sound for decades." ”

Wei Chiran asked: "Mr. Xiang Hua, let me take the liberty of asking, why did Mr. Big ask someone like me to investigate?" I'm not a professional either, I'm just an IT guy. ”

Xiang Hua said strangely: "Didn't Mr. Big tell you why?" I don't know why. ”

Seeing that Xiang Hua didn't seem to know, Wei Chiran just smiled reluctantly.

Xiang Hua opened the door and let Wei Chi enter, and after entering the door, about ten meters away was the gate of the Dragon's Tower.

The gate of the tower is very magnificent, but compared to the small door at the door, it looks weird.

There seems to be some contradiction between the small door on the outside and the gate on the inside.

There were two stone lions on both sides of the gate, and Wei Chi knew that this was called the evil lion, which was specially customized.

In ancient China, the image of the lion mostly appeared in the royal palaces, temples, and the gates of the homes of dignitaries, and it was seen everywhere in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and the images were also diverse, but in fact, the lion was originally not available in China.

But why is there a lion to suppress evil? The culture of the lion was introduced to China when Buddhism introduced the lion to Manjushri, a symbol of wisdom, and the lion represented majesty, wisdom and courage, and was later considered a noble sign.

In addition, in ancient times, dragons and phoenixes could only be used exclusively by the royal family, and lions were not within the forbidden range, so as long as people with conditions were able, they would put lion statues to drive away evil spirits.

Xiang Hua saw that Wei looked at the lion and asked, "Mr. Zhu, are you interested in this stone lion?" ”

Wei Chiran looked at the lion carefully, and always felt that the stone lion was strange, and he couldn't say it.

Wei Chi came back to his senses: "It's nothing, let's go." ”

When Xiang Hua took out the key to open the door, Wei Chiran found that the door was locked, and after the door opened, he paid attention to it, the lock was one-way, that is, only the outside could be opened, and the inside could not be opened.

This is completely different from what the contract says? Even if you want to figure it out yourself, you can't get out of it, right? It is equivalent to not being able to waive the contract on its own.

Xiang Hua saw Wei Chiran's thoughts, and explained: "If you can't stand it, you can call me and tell me, I'll pick you up, there are signal amplifiers in this room, all of which are connected through open wires, so you can use your mobile phone." ”

Xiang Hua told him that there were wires, network cables, and special communication lines, and even the water pipes were exposed to the outside, not buried under the wall or floor.

The reason is that when the Diming Tower was built in the fifties of the last century, there was no consideration for people.

Wei Chiran found that there were radiators in the narrow corridor, this thing was still seen in China when he was a child, Chinatown is in Southeast Asia, there is no need for this thing at all, why should there be heating in this house?

Xiang Hua explained: "Because it can be cold in this room sometimes. ”

When does some time mean? Xiang Hua didn't say anything, saying that he didn't know either, he didn't know.

Wei Chiran said: "What floor do I live on?" ”

Xiang Hua took out a key: "You live in the stone room on the second floor." ”

Stone room? What do you mean? Wei Chiran didn't ask, he believed that Xiang Hua would still say that he didn't know, and after taking the key, Wei Chiran found that Xiang Hua was still standing at the door.

Xiang Hua smiled: "I'll send you here, goodbye." ”

Xiang Hua refused to go in, and after saying goodbye to Wei Chiran, he closed the door directly, and then there was a clicking sound from the door lock, and the sound of a mechanism transmission came from inside the door after the click.

It seems that this is a mechanical door, which cannot be opened by ordinary means, either from the outside or from the inside.

Although the lights in the corridor are very bright and the temperature is very comfortable, but because it is too narrow, it seems very depressing, Wei hesitated, started to walk from the right side, walked around the first floor, and looked at the three rooms on the next floor, which are called "倉", "River", and "Tu", all of which are traditional characters.

The staircase going upstairs is in the center of the spiral staircase, and there are many words written on the center column of the spiral staircase that are completely incomprehensible, and each word seems to be a combination of multiple Chinese characters.

Just as Wei Chi was studying the strange fonts on the stigma, a woman's voice came from behind: "You're a new resident, aren't you?" ”

The lieutenant turned around and looked at the woman at the top of the stairs who wore glasses, long hair, and a shawl, dressed casually and simply.

There is no doubt that this should be Suo Ning, a historian at Chinatown University.

Wei Chiran hurriedly smiled: "Yes, I am, didn't I ask what you call it?" ”

Suo Ning stepped forward and stretched out his hand: "My name is Wan Xiaoxi." ”

When Wei Chi was stunned, Suo Ning showed a "sure enough" expression.

Wei Chiran realized at this moment that Suo Ning gave himself a trick when he met, because if he didn't know Suo Ning's real name, then he wouldn't be stunned, Suo Ning deliberately said a fake name, and Wei Chiran's natural reaction was to be surprised and stunned without reacting.

Suo Ning smiled: "Just kidding, my name is Suo Ning, and I don't introduce much about my career, anyway, you all know, I live in the river-shaped room on the first floor." ”

After speaking, Suo Ning turned to leave.

It seems that this Suo Ning is not an idle person, she knows exactly what she is here for, and she does not put on a hypocritical appearance, which is equivalent to telling herself that she is okay not to come to her, everyone checks each other, and does not interfere with each other.

However, the moment Suo Ning approached before, Wei Chiran smelled a smell of Chinese medicine on her body, and it was very strong, and it made people feel disgusting.

Is this woman really just a historian?
