Chapter 34: Masks and Dolls

"How did it suddenly disappear?" Looking at the empty dark area ahead, Xu Yuan said. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The place where the mysterious woman disappeared was around a corner, and the end was blocked by a wall, and there was no other junction. On the left is a dense green belt, and on the right is a residential building, with a total of three units from near to far.

"The road here is blocked, and she is either hiding in the green belt or entering the building." Lan Haichen looked at it and said, "Yuyan, you are guarding here, let's look for it!" ”

"Okay, you have to be careful." Jiang Yuyan nodded and said.

So Lan Haichen and Xu Yuan began to look separately, and after a while, the two came back, both with disappointed looks on their faces.

"What, isn't it?" Jiang Yuyan asked.

"There was nothing in the green belt, and I searched every corner." Xu Yuan shook his head and said.

"I've also seen the corridor side, and the ground inside is very dry, and no one has seen any signs of entering." Lan Haichen also shook his head and said, "The rain outside is so heavy, if someone goes in, there will definitely be water on the ground." ”

"Where did that go?" Jiang Yuyan said strangely, "Is she really not a human being, and she flew away with wings?" ”

"That woman's sudden disappearance must have discovered us, if she has such a lot of ability, why should she hide, we are definitely not opponents." Lan Haichen said as he looked around, "She must not know where to hide in some way!" ”

"Could she have taken off her raincoat and wrapped it up, then took off her shoes and ran into the hallway? This way there will be no traces of water. Xu Yuan said.

"Then she'll have to prepare a big bag of clothes in advance, and she has to move incredibly fast." Lan Haichen shook his head and said, "But even so, it is impossible for there to be no drop of water on the ground." ”

"And how did she disappear?" Jiang Yuyan asked puzzled.

"There's nowhere else here, she must have taken refuge in the building." Lan Haichen looked at the residential building and said, "Isn't there a saying that 'no door has a window', I guess she entered through the window!" ”

"Windows? Aren't the windows all locked? Jiang Yuyan said.

"If you look at the windows, they're all the kind of design that opens outward, and they open well from the outside, and they're all old." Lan Haichen pointed to the windows and said, "If someone tells me that there is one of them that can be opened at will because it is in disrepair, I have no doubt." ”

"If that's the case, there must be no one in that room." Jiang Yuyan said.

"It's not easy to jump out of the window anyway, so I doubt the window won't be too far away from us. And because it's raining, there are also traces of water in the windows! As he spoke, Lan Haichen turned on the flash of his mobile phone and shone along the windows of the building.

Jiang Yuyan and Xu Yuan also followed, carefully observing the inside of the window.

As Lan Haichen expected, when he saw the third fan, the three of them found something strange.

I saw a worn-out curtain hanging inside, so dirty and rotten that I couldn't see the original color. At the same time, a large water stain appeared on it, which was obviously just done.

"Sure enough!" Seeing the water stains, Lan Haichen smiled.

"I didn't expect it to be true, that woman is really cunning!" Xu Yuan also said.

"I'll go in first and see what's going on inside." Lan Haichen said as he opened the window, climbed on the windowsill and leaned into the house.

"Be careful." Jiang Yuyan reminded behind him.

"Don't worry, as long as she's not a ghost, there's nothing she can do with me." Lan Haichen said and carefully observed the inside of the room.

As Jiang Yuyan said, this room has been uninhabited for a long time. Dust was all over the house, and most of the furniture inside was old.

Lan Haichen jumped into the house to carefully observe the ground, and found that an obvious water mark extended from the window to the living room, and the footprints were also very clear.

Lan Haichen cautiously walked towards the living room, he didn't know if the mysterious woman was still in the house at this moment. Maybe she's gone, maybe she's hiding in the shadows, holding a knife and ready to give Lan Haichen a shot at any time!

The water trail stretched from the living room to the door, Lan Haichen did not rush over, but carefully checked left and right, and only came to the door after making sure that there was no one.

"Looks like I've left the hallway." Lan Haichen pushed the door, and the door opened. It's the kind of old-fashioned door, hollowed out in the middle and covered with a gauze, which obviously doesn't do much of a hindrance.

After Lan Haichen confirmed, he planned to call his companions over, but when he returned to the window, he found that they had already come to the house.

"How?" Xu Yuan asked after seeing Lan Haichen.

"She's going to the hallway, let's follow." Lan Haichen replied.

When the three of them came to the corridor, they found that the water trail was going down the stairs to the second floor, but halfway through, the water trail gradually disappeared, and the footprints became much lighter.

"The water is drying up under her feet, we need to hurry." Jiang Yuyan said after reading it.

"Wait, it's unnatural." Lan Haichen said suddenly, "This water trail was interrupted too suddenly, I suspect she deliberately wanted to lead us to the second floor." ”

"Deliberately led to the second floor, do you mean she walked to the second floor first, and then turned back?" Xu Yuan said.

"Yes, then our clues will be interrupted, and she is actually ......" Lan Haichen looked back at the first floor, where there were a total of four doors.

"If she's in one of the other three doors, there's bound to be water on it." Jiang Yuyan said.

"Yes, no matter how careful she is, she can't avoid it." Lan Haichen nodded and walked to the door, checking them one by one.

"Look, this is it!" Lan Haichen pointed to the door in the middle and said, there were some water traces scattered on it.

"The door is locked, what should I do?" Jiang Yuyan pulled the door and said.

"At this time, Xiao Yuan will have to come out." Lan Haichen said and looked at Xu Yuan with a smile.

"Just leave it to me, I'll open this old-fashioned door lock for you in minutes!" Xu Yuan confidently walked to the door and tossed.

"Xu Yuan can still pick the lock?" Jiang Yuyan said in surprise.

"This guy is a game fan, do you know that there is a must-practice skill in European and American RPG games called lockpicking?" Lan Haichen explained.

"So he's going to practice lockpicking? What a secondary two boy. Jiang Yuyan raised his eyebrows and said.

"I've been in secondary two for many years, so I'm scared, right?" Xu Yuan smiled proudly, "Okay, the door is open~"

Xu Yuan was really powerful, and when he heard a soft sound of "bumping", the door opened to Lan Haichen and the others.

"Alright, now let's go in and see who this mysterious woman really is!" Lan Haichen was the first to enter the house.

"This is?!" As soon as he entered, Lan Haichen was stunned by the scene in front of him.

There were no lights on in the room, and in the cold moonlight, the living room was full of masks and dolls. They have all kinds of strange styles, some laughing and some crying, some people have animals, and they are very weird.

"Oh my God, who is this woman, she has such a good taste." Xu Yuan whispered.

"Look at that!" Jiang Yuyan suddenly pointed to the corner and said. Only then did Lan Haichen and Xu Yuan discover that there was a table in the corner with a mask on it.

"How is this mask exactly the same as the one worn by the judge?!" Lan Haichen exclaimed.
