"Open it and take a look." Hua Lian said to Mo Shuchen.

Mo Shuchen cast a spell to open the small door, but when the spell touched the door, it was blocked by a black gas.

"Looks like there's supposed to be something down there." Hua Lian guessed.

The black gas barrier was easily untied by Mo Shuchen, and Mo Shuchen pulled the small door up again, and a strong smell of rusty iron immediately poured out from the small door.

Hua Lian took a few steps back.

Even if Hua Lian didn't look at the smell, he could guess what was underneath.

Mo Shuchen was also choked by the smell, frowned and covered his mouth and nose, and when he looked at it, Hua Lian immediately grabbed Mo Shuchen's arm: "You won't want to go down, right?" ”

"Well, to confirm what it is, Hua Lian, you wait for me above." After speaking, Mo Shuchen entered the basement.

Hua Lian took two steps back with some disgust, and the flower candle holding him almost buried his head in Hua Lian's waist.

The basement was large, but it was pitch black, and Mo Shuchen lit a flame in the palm of his hand, illuminating the basement.

There were several cages in the basement, and in the cages there were the bodies of children, who looked like they had died recently, and these children were not very old, and there were boys and children.

Their blood and corpse water flowed from under the cage, and the smell was extremely unpleasant, and the death was very miserable.

The child's soul was withdrawn from the body, and it should not have been done by mortals.

There were about seven or eight cages, and there were children's corpses in each cage, but what Mo Shuchen didn't understand was that these children were lost, and there was no movement in the news or newspapers.

Now the society is different from the past, and in the past, the government would never take care of this kind of thing, but now it ......

Mo Shuchen came up after probing, and Hua Lian glanced at him with disgust: "What's down there?" ”

"There are several cages, and there are children's bodies in the cages, and the souls are gone." Mo Shuchen said.

"I'll ...... There's enough perverts! It's the one who cultivates evil arts, and he wants to live forever and wants to go crazy, right? Hua Lian couldn't help but complain.

Mo Shuchen pondered for a moment: "It's a little strange, so many children are missing, but no one calls the police." ”

"Maybe someone called the police, you don't know?" Hua Lian Road.

"Well, maybe."

"So what about here?" Hua Lian glanced at the basement that had been opened by them.

Originally, they should have called the police to deal with it, but this is a case that mortal police will never be able to solve, and if they call the police now, it will be alarming.

Mo Shuchen waved his hand to close the basement door: "Wait for the rabbit." ”

They quietly left the building again.

At night, Hua Lian and Mo Shuchen didn't sleep, they just stood by the window and watched. Waiting and waiting, Hua Lian began to feel sleepy, and his eyelids became heavier and heavier.

Later, he couldn't stand it anymore, so he fell asleep with Mo Shuchen in his arms.

The night passed, and there was no movement in the building, and workers went in at six o'clock during the day to continue the renovation.

Hua Lian was awakened by the sun's rays only to realize that it was already dawn.

He yawned, stood up and stretched, "Nothing happened last night?" ”

"Hmm." Mo Shuchen also didn't sleep all night, but he didn't feel tired.

"And are we still staring today?"

"Well, but we're going to get somewhere first."

Outside the police station, Mo Shuchen and Hua Lian met Wen Jing by chance, although they could meet by chance.

Wen Jing was very happy to see them: "Such a coincidence? Are you coming to the police station? ”

"No, let's go to the shop next door for a cup of coffee, and I've heard which shop has a good cake." Mo Shuchen smiled softly.

Hua Lian then said, "Do you want Officer Wen to come with us?" ”

"Good! It just so happens that I'm free. Wen Jing agreed without thinking about the invitation.

In a coffee shop on the street opposite the police station, they found a secluded place to sit down, and Mo Shuchen ordered two cups of coffee, a cup of vanilla tea, and three more cakes.

Hua Lian looked at Wen Jing with his chin in his hands, and looked at Wen Jing with a red heart beat, and he didn't even dare to look directly into Hua Lian's eyes.

"You're very busy as a police officer, aren't you?" Hua Lian asked.

"Well, sometimes it's quite busy." Wen Jing replied with her head down and looking at her fingers.

"I'm quite interested in solving cases, are there any strange cases lately? Like serial disappearances or something? Hua Lian said in a boyish tone.

Wen Jing smiled: "Solving cases in the real world is not the same. If you see it, you'll be shocked. ”

"Really?"

"Well, the recent case...... It can't be considered recent, there should have been a series of missing girls a few years ago, and they disappeared several, and they disappeared for almost a year before they went home, and they lost their memories when they got home. At that time, it was suspected that he was abducted by human traffickers, and he lost his memory because he was too stimulated. ”

"Oh? And this kind of thing? ”

"Well, because the victim has amnesia and no obvious physical damage, this case has become an unsolved case, and it has not been solved until now."

"Is the victim just amnesia?" Hua Lian asked.

Wen Jing suddenly looked around mysteriously, and whispered: "Actually, it's not just amnesia, but also dementia, which is the reason why the case can't be investigated." And after adjusting the surveillance, I only saw the victim, and nothing else was found. ”

"That's weird." Hua Lian muttered.

"If you like to investigate cases, you can actually go to the police academy at that time."

Hua Lian pretended to smile innocently: "But after hearing you say this, I think it's better, if you really see me, I might be scared." ”

His innocent appearance aroused Wen Jing's girl's heart that had been silent for a long time. She suddenly understood why so many star-chasing girls couldn't help but shout when they saw their idols, covering their faces and screaming.

She now has that urge too.

The coffee and cake arrived, Hua Lian ate three pieces in a row, and even ate Mo Shuchen's share before reluctantly leaving.

"Sorry to treat you. Why don't I treat you to dinner next time? Wen Jing said.

"You're welcome." Mo Shuchen replied softly.

"Take it as a thank you for telling me such a bizarre story. See you next time, bye-bye. After speaking, Hua Lian pulled Mo Shuchen and left.

Wen Jing couldn't help but sigh as she looked at the backs of them leaving, she always felt that they were two people who were as dazzling as the sun, but she was not as bright as their sporadic brilliance.

It always feels like people from two worlds.

Wen Jing tapped her head, allowing herself to dispel this idea of wanting to get closer.

In fact, she knew in her own heart that getting close to them might end up like Icarus in Greek mythology.

It's better to just look up.

After all, she's just an ordinary woman.

Hua Lian sat on Mo Shuchen's car and pondered for a moment, and looked at Mo Shuchen seriously: "I should have brought another one back to give the candle to Hua Candle just now." ”

Mo Shuchen sighed: "Hua Zhu likes to eat fish. ”

"I should like the cake and candle, and if he doesn't like it, I can barely eat it for him." Hua Lian pouted.

"That's what you just thought?"

"Not exactly. I was wondering what kind of connection could be made between the missing girl and the child, and then I thought of some not-so-good images. Hua Lian laughed meaningfully.

Mo Shuchen smiled: "For example? ”

Hua Lian hesitated, but still didn't speak: "Forget it, let's not say it." It would be nice to find a few girls who disappeared at the time. I think it's a bit of a stupidity, maybe it's because of the lack of soul. ”

"Hmm."

"But the person who can come up with this method shouldn't be human, right? It's a demon, right? Hua Lian looked at the scenery outside the car window.

Mo Shuchen's gaze sank: "Maybe it's a demon itself?" ”

"Huh? What do you think of? ”

Mo Shuchen looked back at Hua Lian and didn't continue to speak.

Hua Lian knew what Mo Shuchen probably knew, but he didn't want to tell him, or didn't want to tell him.

Hua Lian's mind couldn't help but think of the silhouette of the man in sunglasses who passed them by at that time.

Why do you suddenly think of him?

When they got home, the next door was still being renovated, but it was much quieter.

Xiao Hei and Bai and Hua Candle are all watching in turn, but except for seeing the workers coming in and out, they don't see any other characters.

But as long as they have the patience to wait like this, they will always see the owner.

But Hua Lian didn't have that much patience.

Hua Lian took a big sip of soda from the refrigerator and said, "I think those workers also have problems, maybe they are accomplices!" ”

Mo Shuchen glanced at it: "It seems that it is just an ordinary mortal." ”

"Why don't I go grab one and come back, ask them where their boss is, and find it." Just waiting for it to be in line with Hua Lian's work style.

"Don't worry." Mo Shuchen sat on the sofa and pulled Hua Lian into his arms.

Hua Lian raised his head: "Are you right about my speculation in the car just now?" ”

"What speculation?" Mo Shuchen said deliberately.

Hua Lian poked him with his back elbow: "Don't pretend to be stupid, you!" ”

The little black and white candles all stared at them curiously.

Especially since Hua Zhu had been to the scene of the crime yesterday, he wanted to know what they had investigated today.

"What speculation?" Flower Candle also asked.

Hua Lian glanced at the flower candle: "Weren't you still scared yesterday?" ”

"I ...... I'm not afraid now. "Hua Zhu is actually still a little scared in my heart.

Hua Lian said everything he thought of in the car at that time, and hugged the little black and white people with a chill that Hua Candle heard.

"Lord Hualian, what you said can't be true, right?" Xiaobai said scaredly.

"How do I know that?" Hua Lian spread his hands.

Mo Shuchen pondered for a moment: "Maybe it's true." Hua Lian's conjecture is the only one that can meet all the conditions, so if it is not the whole truth, it must be the majority of the truth.

"But...... How could anyone come up with such a ......" Xiao Hei's face wrinkled together.

"Don't mortals often say that when the forest is big, there are all kinds of birds?" Hua Lian tugged at the corners of his mouth, "I can even think of who did it." ”

Mo Shuchen suddenly sneered: "Hmm." ”

The little black and white candles that were hugging each other thought of a person at the same time.

I often heard Lord Hua Lian mention it before, the man with one eye covered.
