Twenty-three lost

(Foreword: A lot of readers have come to me lately. Why is it not updated these months. Updates are often made once or twice a week. An explanation of the question. I can sum it up in two words: I've been busy at work lately.

Sigh. This one has gone through a lot of ups and downs. From the initial confidence was sure that it could be published. Until now completely abandoned publication but still continues to write. I didn't want to write it from the end of the first part. Until now, I have been moved by readers and continue to write a sequel to the fifth case. From the beginning, the protagonist Cheng Shuai will definitely be written to death by me. Later, the readers protested en masse, and I had to write about him alive...... Unconsciously. This one has been written for three years. One of the reasons for writing so slowly. I'm sure those readers who have been supporting it know it. I'm like a guy in Ssangyong Detective Agency. Have also experienced a lot, a lot. Thank you very much. Along the way. It was a lot of readers who supported me until now. For example, the old readers and loyal fans in my group: Freedom. Starry sky. Dross. Slay the wolf. Fruit. Banxia. Xiao A. Bing Xin, May, Lily, Xiao Yue, Xiao Lin, Liang Liang, Xiao Yun (other readers who have not been written, sorry, there are too many, I can't write them one by one, because these few have been more familiar with me recently, so I wrote them) six groups of readers, I will cherish each one, thank you for accompanying me and the Ssangyong Detective Agency along the way. Thank you bit by bit

What I want to say is. I worked. I don't have much time to write like a professional writer. Let's be honest. There was a time when I didn't want to write. Although reluctant. But I thought about disbanding all six groups. Then go to work with peace of mind. Can. It's those readers who move me again and again. Time and time again, I decided to finish this series. This film is limited by the dual protagonists and the long-form detective theme. It has been rejected by publishing houses and comic magazines a total of 48 times. Every time one is a huge hit. More than 20 of them have reached the stage of the final review. But they were all rejected because of the subject matter restrictions. It's true. Every time I don't want to write. But every time it's the readers or the calls. Or encourage in the group. Or email me to encourage me...... Thank you. You guys made me understand this. Not for those publishers. It's for you. Thank you

It's been three years. Three years is not a long time. But it's definitely not short. But in the past three years, many readers have stayed in the group to support me. Support this update is a dead slow Ssangyong detective agency. I don't really know how to express my emotion. Just two words: thank you...... A reader once said to me. She treats all the characters in the Ssangyong Detective Agency as her familiar people. Familiar friends. Treat everyone in the readership as members of that club. She was reluctant to leave. Will always support me. Even if I don't write it

No amount of dark clouds can obscure the sun forever. There will always be times when the rain passes and the sky clears

Freely. And Xiaoxing. When you two guys use this line from me to comfort me. I was crying quietly in front of my computer...... Maybe you two guys don't remember when. But I remember

I still remember. When the editor-in-chief of a publishing house says that he is worthless, I am not the first to get angry. It's the readers in the group

Thank you so much. For me. You're no longer my readers. It's my friend. Thank you

I'll keep writing. Thank you)

Xun Qian and Hou Min glanced at each other. But they didn't dare to enter the cave first. Being embarrassed at the time. Chen Xingye behind him walked over without saying a word. And crawled into the hole alone. I don't know why. The two women felt a touch of emotion in their hearts. After all, the depths of this cave within a hole are still mysterious. Even more dangerous. Dare to be the first to take a step. It takes a lot of courage to take on everything.

Seeing that Chen Xingye had already climbed into the hole. Cheng Shuai's face showed a slight look of approval. At the same time, turn your head away. Gave the other players a follow-up motion. Thereupon. ZHANG Hailin. Bi Chengcheng. XUN Qian. LIU Yibin. Gu Ling. HOU Min. Finally, the wolf named Bart went into the hole one after another. At last. Cheng Shuai casually followed

I don't know how long I climbed. The light in the cave is getting weaker and weaker. In the end, the light is completely lost. There is only infinite darkness. The players can't see anything anymore. They can only feel the darkness. I just keep crawling forward. I don't know what awaits me at the end of the road. There is an inexplicable fear and anticipation. But. What really scares them. I don't know if there is an end ahead of me in this darkness. It's as if all the senses are gone. I don't even feel like I'm still alive

"It's strange that this strange detective has been walking ahead before. This time, I deliberately walked at the end" I don't know when it started. Liu Yibin has habitually begun to rely on the detective who was previously regarded as a neurotic detective. And always ponder his every move. When I saw that Cheng Shuai seemed to be unintentional but deliberately climbed at the end of the line. He couldn't help but mutter.

The others heard Liu Yibin's muttering. I can't help but start worrying in my heart. Bi Chengcheng subconsciously looked back. But all I saw was pitch black. He couldn't help but feel a little flustered:

"Boss. You're not there."

It was a long time coming. There was only a terrifying silence in response to Bi Chengcheng. This silent answer was enough to destroy the last trace of defense in the hearts of every team member. Everyone started panicking. All shouted loudly to determine each other's location. Crawling in this darkness that tends to be infinite. It makes everyone lose their minds. The long, narrow hole was filled with the frightened cries and echoes of the team. Even more so that everyone collapsed. The players are on the verge of losing the last shred of their sanity. Started screaming frantically.

"Quiet." Suddenly. A very oppressive and intimidating voice overwhelmed every cry of panic. The team members immediately shut their mouths as if they had heard the commander's order. Next, I remembered Chen Xingye's solemn and majestic voice." Keep moving. until you reach the entrance of the cave. I don't want to hear anything."

It was as if a booster had been injected into the hearts of every team member. Everyone cheered up and calmed down. Forget the idea that the brain mileage handsome has left everyone alone. Continue to crawl forward, I don't know how long. Suddenly, a faint fragrance wafted in front of me. In this kind of place. There is such a quiet fragrance. After a short period of doubt, the team members began to breathe this rare fragrance desperately and greedily

". Everybody pinched their noses." Suddenly. At the end of the line came a familiar voice that had been lost for a long time.

Bi Chengcheng and Zhang Hailin were the first to be shocked. Then Liu Yibin also reacted. They immediately reflexively pinched their noses. This sudden shout was clearly Cheng Shuai's. Chen Xingye, who was at the front of the team, was wondering. But suddenly I only felt dizzy. Then the frenzied screams of the players behind me kept ringing in my ears. Unlike the previous screams due to panic. This one contains a variety of emotions. There was even a maddening laughter. And it's mixed with a lot of gibberish. Chen Xingye's heart sank suddenly. Just as I was about to yell at them. I felt dizzy inexplicably. Then. The whole body is unbelievably comfortable. It's as if the whole person is floating in the air. And those eyes that had only been seen before were suddenly brightened up at this moment. A wonderful portrait appeared in front of my eyes. Chen Xingye found himself in a small village with beautiful scenery. Then. There was a sweet, soft and familiar singing voice floating in my ears. Chen Xingye was not surprised. Follow the song to find it. I saw a dignified and beautiful woman sitting by the stream washing her clothes. Chen Xingye was stunned. Because that woman turned out to be his wife who had been dead for a long time. He didn't know what was wrong with him. It's as if I'm hooked. Slowly drifted towards the "wife". And the "wife" seems to see him too. I also put down the work in my hands. Stretching out his hand to summon him, Chen Xingye slowly floated by. Slowly. Getting closer and closer suddenly." Wife" opened her mouth wide. A mouth full of terrifying fangs. There was still blood and shredded flesh hanging from it. Pounce on him. Chen Xingye couldn't help but scream. Then it was dark again. The whole person lost consciousness

Twenty-four Dragon Pond

I don't know how long it took. Chen Xingye slowly woke up. I feel a shock and a sharp pain in my head. He couldn't remember what had happened. I'm not even sure if I'm still alive. He shook his head. Raise your hazy eyes and look out. I was surprised to find myself in a bright and spacious place. Not far ahead, there is a silver-glowing waterhole. The water in that pool was the most beautiful and clear he had ever seen in his life. He opened his mouth slightly. Showing an incredible expression. And next to him. Gu Ling, who was still in a coma while lying down. HOU Min. XUN Qian.

Chen Xingye rubbed his face. Struggling attempts to stand up. Then. There was a voice in my ear:

"If the body does not recover, I will lie down obediently. Don't be stubborn, you fool."

Chen Xingye raised his head. I saw Cheng Shuai tilting his head and looking at himself. Then. suddenly showed an exaggerated smile:

"I didn't expect you to sing like a tricky woman. Especially with that charming expression. Hahahaha. Lao Tzu almost couldn't help but be impulsive at that time. Hahahaha."

"Where is this. I" Chen Xingye looked at the players who were still unconscious around him. I couldn't help frowning." What's wrong with us.

Cheng Shuai was just about to answer. Liu Yibin's excited shout suddenly came from his ears:

"It's incredible. The light here comes from the microorganisms on the walls of these caves. These microorganisms are capable of emitting light on their own. They live for a long time in this hole where they can't see their fingers. Over time, an incredible luminescence system has evolved. And it seems that this microorganism has not yet been discovered. I have collected some specimens. This expedition was worth it even if it cost me my life."

Looking at the excited Liu Yibin. Chen Xingye was not excited at all. He looked around. Then his eyes stayed on Cheng Shuai. Waiting for explanation. Cheng Shuai understood what he meant. Showing a nonchalant look:

"The scent you asked about when you were in the cave just now. In fact, it is an extremely rare plant 'Pandora' that is not currently recognized by biologists. The scent of this plant stimulates the human brain through the olfactory system. Causes fatal hallucinations. However, as long as you cover your mouth and nose with a damp cloth or wash your mouth and nose with water afterwards, it will not matter here. I'm sure careful readers have noticed it too. In fact, the hypnotic perfume used by the "hypnotist" Hu Ling in "No Shadow". It's nothing more than what this plant refines. It doesn't matter if you don't find the reader. Because I've told you how it is now. Author Greatly. Lao Tzu is just going to reveal the plot. What do you think. Bite me. Write me to death again. Come on. I'm not afraid."

Chen Xingye buried his head. Slap in the face. It's my own sanity that is a little more sober. Unintentionally. He saw Zhang Hailin standing in front of a large hole with a diameter of about one meter on the side board with a dull gaze. Chen Xingye found out. There is more than one such big hole around.

Zhang Hailin stared blankly at the entrance of the cave. The cries and shouts of his teammates from the communicator that I couldn't shake off in my memory began to come to my ears. After what just happened. He understood. In the midst of these big holes. In the depths of a large hole were the corpses of his companions, tears. Drops are rolling down. Zhang Hailin collapsed to the ground

Then. Bi Chengcheng, who also covered his nose in time before, brought water from the pool. He was followed by the wolf named Bart. Bi Chengcheng gently sprinkled the water on the mouths and noses of the players who were still unconscious, and Xun Qian woke up first. As soon as she saw the waterhole in front of her for the first time, she couldn't help but exclaim:

"It's beautiful."

Cheng Shuai also glanced at the waterhole. But his expression became rare and solemn. But then he turned around as if nothing had happened. ran to Xun Qian, showed a flattering smile and threw flattering eyes:

"Xiao Qianqian. This"

I don't know why. Xun Qian instinctively felt unpleasant for a while. His face suddenly darkened:

"What's the matter?"

"Have you ever heard of artificial respiration and a kiss?"

"That's what you're trying to say."

"I want to say this because I have to do it. I just saw you unconscious. And so, "

Xun Qian suddenly pulled out the self-defense knife on her body with an expressionless face. Then looked at Cheng Shuai coldly:

"And then."

Cheng Shuai's face suddenly turned pale. Then turn your head. His eyes were firmly fixed on Bi Chengcheng." Then I'll tell this kid Bi Chengcheng to go to the pond to get water to help you wake up."

Xun Qian slowly put away the self-defense knife. There was still no expression on his face. Cheng Shuai couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat behind his back. Then. Hou Min on the side also gradually woke up. Just listen to the "whoosh" sound. Cheng Shuai didn't know when he had appeared in front of Hou Min. Then he showed the same flattering smile as before, and threw the same flattering eyes.

Hou Min looked at Cheng Shuai's expression. I was speechless." Mr. Detective. What's the matter?"

"Xiao Minmin. Have you ever heard of artificial respiration and a kiss?"

“”

"You've been unconscious just now. I was so worried that I was."

"Gross." Cheng Shuai didn't finish his words. Hou Min felt a churning in his stomach. Then he tilted his head to the side and vomited.

Cheng Shuai lowered his eyelids and looked at Hou Min, who was vomiting. There was no expression on his face. And next to it. The others were already laughing maniacally. Even Bi Cheng Chengdu couldn't help but snicker.

And at this time. Gu Ling had already woken up. She stared blankly at the waterhole. It's as if the whole person is hooked. A slight exhalation in his mouth. The gaze becomes more and more focused and disoriented:

"Something seems to be calling to me from the depths of that puddle"
