Chapter 3: Antique Shops

Early in the morning, the major media in City C reported on the recent abduction and trafficking cases that occurred in the city.

According to the survey, the age of the lost children is not limited, but the loss is very concentrated, all of them are located in the center of City C, which is the 11th child lost in the center of City C.

In view of the fact that there have been several previous cases of the same situation, the police have determined that the same organization was responsible.

According to the report, the lost children do not know each other, and there is no connection in terms of family history, the only thing that is clear is that the location of the loss is that they were all lost when they went to extracurricular classes, and the police have not had any connection with the surveillance throughout the city, and the suspicion of kidnapping has been ruled out.

For a while, the whole city was panicked, for fear that their children would become the next victims, and the originally popular extracurricular classes were also depressed

As the president of the 'Shanhai' Art Academy, I had to pay attention to this series of cases.

"Mao'er, there are two children at the school today who didn't ask for leave and didn't come." As soon as it was time for class, Huan Liang hurriedly came to my office, "You hurry up and call home to ask if there is no accident." ”

"Okay, I'll contact their family first, and you go to class and watch those leather monkeys." As soon as I took out my mobile phone, I was about to contact the child's parents, but before I could dial the number, the mobile phone rang, and an unfamiliar voice came from the other end of the phone: "Mr. Aragaki Mi?" This is the Shuangqiao District Education Bureau, there are some things I want you to know, please come over. ”

"I'll push you to WeChat for the parent's contact number." I packed up the papers on my desk and said to Liang Liang, "I'll go to the Education Bureau." ”

I was not greeted by an officer from the Education Bureau, but by a policeman named Liu Xia, a handsome man. There was such a vague attraction in him that I couldn't take my eyes off him, but according to my intuition, it was too strange.

After the routine question, he went straight to the point: "Mr. Aragaki, someone gave us a clue, these three children have not appeared again since they entered your Shanhai Art School, what do you want to explain about this matter?" ”

"Officer, I don't quite understand what you're saying." I watched as he handed me the papers, rummaging through them.

"Take Sun Xiaoya as an example, it was Saturday when she went missing, and she was a student at your school, we got your class schedule, and according to our time calculation, he was in class at the time." He paused, "So that makes us wonder if you're using the guise of an art school to sell people." ”

"At that time, Sun Xiaoya's parents called our classroom teacher and said that they would leave half an hour earlier and ask Xiaoya to go to the next class early. There is video surveillance at the entrance of our school, which you can go and check. ”

"Okay, then you go slowly, I need to ask the other suspects." After speaking, he stuffed a business card to me, "If you need anything, please contact me in time." ”

Before leaving, Liu Xia's words surprised me a little, after all, I was just the principal of an extracurricular tutoring agency, and I shouldn't have anything to contact him, but out of politeness, I still took the business card.

The afternoon sun poured down, like a warm veil over the trees.

Aya took out the compiled materials and gave them to me, among which the names of several children were marked, "I think something is wrong, these children are our students, and logically speaking, their breath is very familiar, but I can't feel their presence at all." ”

"I said, Aya, what are you worried about?" Holding a cup of tea in his hand, Huan Liang sat down slowly, "Since the human police have started the investigation, don't interfere and do more mistakes." ”

The occurrence of one strange thing is often the wedge of the occurrence of another.

Before he could decide whether to do this or not, another phone call came in, only this time it was not the school bureau or the police station, but the parents of the two children who missed school in the morning.

It's just that as soon as the phone is connected, the other party hangs up in a hurry, leaving only a string of beeping sounds, just before hanging up...... I seemed to hear the crisp sound of a sharp object hitting the ground......

"Huanliang, did we leave everyone's contact information when we accepted students? Now go find out the address of Chaoge's home. I rubbed my forehead, the crisp snapping sound lingering in my ears, and I don't think I could ignore it......

"What is written in the record is Unit 313, Unit 9, Building 15, Tourmaline Hanfu, do we need to go now?" It took a very fast time to call up Chaoge's home address.

"I went over and looked at it, and I didn't think something was right."

I used the fastest speed in my life to come to the downstairs of Chaoge's house, which was much quieter than I imagined, but there was an indescribable weirdness, the moonlight fell obliquely, quiet and soft.

I didn't have time to think about it, so I rang the doorbell of the building door, the doorbell kept ringing, but no one responded, I had to pinch the spell and pass through the building door, just entered the corridor, the smell of blood came to my nose, and the blood ticked from the gap in the stairs above to the first floor.

Holding back the feeling of vomiting, he walked from the first floor to the third floor with dark red blood, and sure enough, he ...... The source of the blood is Room 313, if I didn't guess wrong, the phone call back from Chaoge's parents should be a distress call.

The door is closed, and it is impossible to investigate the situation inside, whether it is a spirit or not, as long as it is a human being, then it must be taken over by the human police, and if you break into the door now, it will inevitably destroy the scene of the crime.

The hand that had been placed on the doorknob was taken down with a smile, only to find that the fingertips were stained with some shiny particles, and the fingertips gently kneaded the particles into powder, as if ...... It's gold dust.

"Officer Liu, I'm Aragaki Hao, and I'm waiting for you in Building 15 of Tourmaline Hanfu."

While waiting for Liu Xia, I looked around, and there seemed to be nothing suspicious except for the rough gold dust on the doorknob.

In addition, the only suspicious thing now is the phone call made to me by Chaoge's parents, which was too coincidental in all respects, first of all, I am not our relative, and secondly, in the eyes of the world, I am just a little white face who survives on women, and this phone call makes me feel more like a trap that lures me in.

Liu Xia came a little faster than I expected, and five minutes after I called, he rushed over.

"Have you been in?" Liu Xia asked me with professional indifference, and I shook my head.

"Put it on." After saying that, he took out a pair of gloves from his pocket and threw them to me, and then he didn't look at me, but took out a pair of gloves in another pocket, his hands were beautiful, and his fingers were long, but there were some calluses in the tiger's mouth.

He bent down slightly, attached his ear to the door, gently turned the doorknob, and then inserted the hairpin pinned to his head into the keyhole, shook it slightly, only to hear a 'click', and the door was opened by him.

"I said, it's a pity that Officer Liu's door opening technique is not good, and the snitch is a pity."

"Noise." He gave me a cold glance and walked into the room first.

As soon as I entered the room, I felt full of biting coldness, and I saw two people who couldn't be sure whether they were alive or dead, both of them had their bellies cut open, their bodies were still twitching from time to time, their faces seemed to have been branded with a hot soldering iron, and their whole faces were blurred with flesh and blood, and they couldn't see the original shape of their facial features at all.

The night was as cool as water, and it was early summer, and the temperature at night was not very high, and the fresh internal organs exposed to the air were slightly hot, with a strong smell of blood, which was disgusting.

Liu Xia was still taking pictures around the half-dead corpse, and suddenly, a cat jumped down under the eaves, and I don't know what it stepped on, and after a strange scream, it ran away quickly, and in that moment, I understood where the weirdness was...... It's so quiet, cicadas, birds...... It's all gone, as if the space is cut off.

"Officer Liu, stop filming...... Let's go now......"

"Why...... Don't you want to know the cause of their death? ”

"I want to know the fart, don't you find that there is not a single animal here, because the vomeronasal apparatus of animals is more developed than humans, and they are much more sensitive to danger than humans, don't you find that there is not a single living creature here except humans, because it is too dangerous. Let's go, now let's go......"

Before Liu Xia could speak, a long but delicate voice came from a distance, "The little doll of the Aragaki family..... When you come, you can't leave......" Outside the window, it was pitch black, like a demon's bottomless throat.
