Chapter 198: The Center of the Storm

I was listening attentively, but when I said this, Wen Tingxu suddenly stopped.

Even though the night is dark, the lights of the city are still endless as far as the window can see.

In such a quiet night, in the lights of thousands of homes outside the window, how many people are tossing and turning, staggering joys and sorrows?

Wen Tingxu dangled the wine glass in his hand, the crimson wine swirling in the glass, but his eyes kept looking out the window.

I can probably understand his mood - when he was a child, he traveled thousands of miles with his mother to find his father, but he got the news that his parents defected with their treasure and abandoned him abroad.

This incident must have left an indelible mark on his life, or rather, an indelible shame.

I also understand why he was so lonely, so isolated, so obedient, and so cold-hearted when he was in college-although I don't know what kind of upheaval he experienced after Wen Tingxu's parents "defected", but it was certainly not a happy and warm experience.

However, Hua Hu didn't know why today, she had been eating and drinking indifferently next to her - could it be because of the aroma of the wine and food that Wen Tingxu had treated, so that she was indifferent to Wen Mushan's bizarre experience in the Western Regions? Or is it that for Asura, bizarre events in the eyes of humans are not a big deal in the first place?

But one thing I'm sure of is that she didn't react at all to the word "West Night."

This also shows two situations, one is that the strange things in this place in the West Night seem to have nothing to do with the Asura Realm; The second is that Shen Yu is in the knowledge base in Hua Yu's mind, and there is nothing to dig deep into Xiye at all.

The affairs of the Western Night Kingdom are still recorded in the pamphlet given to me by the visitors from hell. From these records, I found out the history of the Western Night after conquering the Three Kingdoms and plundering the iron pot back to the capital, and I think that this incident is vaguely related to the "man who carries the pot".

However, the connection between "robbing the pot in the western night" and "the man who carries the pot" is only based on my speculation and conjecture, and these connections are exactly the same as the connections between strange things such as "black boat", "faceless man", "forehead lettering", etc., and even include the archaeological encounters of the fathers mentioned by Wen Tingxu today, they all have a common characteristic between them, that is, until now, their relationships with each other are inseparable from each other, and they are all in the clouds and mountains and fog - you can't say that they are completely indifferent, but you can't find the inevitable connection!

They are like a set of dominoes from a distance, with the same shape and appearance, but because they are so spaced that even if one domino falls, it will have no effect on the other.

Because there is no path that connects them, or rather, we have not found that path.

But in an instant, I suddenly realized something!

That path, in fact, has a breakthrough point!

- Why are all these strange things happening all around us, and why do they all revolve around the people around me?

First Shen Yu, then Wen Tingxu, they all grew up in different families in their early years, they all had very different experiences, and they all embarked on different life paths......

But in the end, what they all had in common was that they all became my friends.

Even including Hua Hu, a "weirdo", some power in the dark made her "come" to me!

If it's a coincidence, then I believe it's not a coincidence in pure probability theory! It's more of a man-made coincidence!

I shuddered at the thought of this.

Could it be that I have been arranged by some force to be placed in the eye of the storm of strange events?

Is everything around me revolving around me?

Am I the key to solving all the mysteries?

However, I was never mentally prepared to solve the mystery - did I have the ability to cut through the fog and discover the truth of the event? In particular, the power I am facing seems to be an unknown force that is treacherous, ferocious, cruel, and mysterious.

Judging from the strange things such as the faceless man, the man who carried the pot, and the visitors from hell, it seems that they all have inhuman abilities. They are still hiding in the shadows, unable to find out where they are and what they are for.

Yes, I was ready to take the initiative to take on these Inhuman challenges. But now if I'm in the center of the storm, I won't be able to escape, if I don't take the initiative.

I gasped, if this is the case, then I can't be the same as before, always thinking about being Shen Yu's helper to get close to the truth of the matter.

I have to take my responsibility to dispel the fog and protect them.

I turned my head to look at Hua Huan, she was still immersed in enjoying the food, and it seemed that "human suffering" was still not attractive to her.

Wen Tingxu had obviously been restraining his emotions, and at this moment, his emotions seemed to have relaxed.

"Are you alright?" I asked him.

"It's okay, after all, it was a lot of years ago." He shook his head and smiled bitterly, "It's just that I still don't trust their verdict, and my parents are not the kind of people who defect with treasures at all." Although they have a cold temperament, they are by no means the type to ignore their sons and leave them - and, after all these years of asking around, there seems to be no trace of them in the world. ”

"And how did you come to that conclusion at the time?"

Wen Tingxu sneered: "Orphan evidence, they are all vulnerable orphan evidence. ”

……

It goes back to the past.

Captain Garlic's judgment on the murder and escape of the Wen couple came from the autopsy of Wang Tuda.

Due to the long period of death and the special climate of the desert area, according to the general procedure, the medical examiner needed to open Wang Tuda's stomach to further determine the time of his death.

After various methods of verification, the time of Wang Tuda's death was twenty-five days ago, that is, a few days after Fei Tang returned to the desert from Yecheng for the second time.

But that's not the point, the point is that the forensic doctor found a sealed plastic bag in Wang Tuda's stomach, and inside the plastic bag was a distress letter written by migrant workers.

The distress letter was written with a ballpoint pen, and the handwriting was crooked, probably because the level of education was not high, so there were many typos on the letter-

"Comrades Jingcha (police), we were locked up by Wen Musan (Wen Mushan), and they want to kill us, come and (save) us! Comrade Xiaofei (tip) has already been killed by him. Here the baby (dig) out a lot of treasures, gold and silver, Wenmu three to four (private) swallow the baby, to run. He gave us the next month (medicine), fascinated us (down), helped (tied up), wanted to kill us all, wheat (buried) in the Shamo (desert), come and (save)! ”

The forensic doctor also found traces of being tied up and abused on Wang Tuda's body, which also indicates that he may have been imprisoned before his death, and also corroborates the situation of "fascinated" and "tied up" in the distress letter.

But since it was a distress letter, why did Wang Tuda swallow it in his stomach? https://./15_15456/
