Chapter 4: The detention center is haunted
It wasn't until the countless points of light formed by Hu Feifei completely disappeared that we slowly walked back, and saw Millie and Liu Wei standing in the night breeze, although they both had smiles on their faces, but the tears that were like spring water, uncontrollably gushing out of their eyes, expressed the sadness in their hearts at the moment.

In this situation, I don't know what to say to consol, even Mu Zihan and Lin Shixuan, who are usually eloquent, can only say nothing at this moment, and stand there with heavy faces.
After a while, Mu Zihan stepped forward and patted Liu Wei's shoulder, and said in a low voice: "The deceased is gone, the living are like this, mourn." Moreover, we should be even more happy for her, she has finally escaped the identity of a resentful spirit. ”
"Well, thank you Detective Mu, thank you......" Liu Wei lowered his head and choked up, but in the end, he couldn't cry at all.
Hey, everyone understands the truth, I think even if Mu Zihan doesn't say it, in fact, in the hearts of Liu Wei and Millie, they also know that this is a good thing. However, emotionally, how many people can do it, and the life of their loved ones is parting with death and being indifferent?
After that, Lin Shixuan drove Liu Wei and the others back to their place of residence first, while Mu Zihan and I went directly back to the detective agency. It's just that Lin Shixuan said before leaving, let's wait for him in the office, he still has something to discuss with us.
Sure enough, not long after Mu Zihan and I returned to the office, Lin Shixuan arrived in a hurry.
Sitting on the couch in his office, after a cup of tea, he began to talk about the Butterfly organization that he had mentioned this morning. However, contrary to Mu Zihan's and me's expectations, it turned out that it was not because of a new breakthrough in the interrogation. Rather, in the detention center of the "Butterfly" organization, where some of them were captured during the last operation, strange things have been happening in the past few days.
"Weird things? Tell me, what is it? Then, about when it started. Mu Zihan asked with a serious face.
"I think it started four or five days ago, and the first thing that came out of the mouths of several suspects serving sentences in the detention center was that in the middle of the night, I could always hear people walking in the corridor." Lin Shixuan pondered and replied.
"Isn't that normal? The detention center should also have prison guards on duty at night, so it's normal to have footsteps. I replied suspiciously, I really didn't think it was a strange thing.
"At first, the prison guards thought so, so they didn't take it seriously. However, the next day, more suspects reported hearing the sound, which was accompanied by a screeching scraping sound from dragging heavy objects against the ground. There are even rumors among the suspects that prison guards secretly beat the suspect to death in the middle of the night and dragged him out to bury the body. This has aroused great attention from the leaders in the detention center. Lin Shixuan said.
"This kind of thing, just investigate the world where those suspects heard the footsteps, and then call up the surveillance video, wouldn't it be very clear?" I say.
Lin Shixuan nodded and replied: "That's right, the leaders of the detention center at that time used this method to investigate. However, it is precisely because of the investigation that I feel weird......"
"Is it true that no one was walking around the detention center at the time of hearing footsteps in all the surveillance?" Mu Zihan interrupted him and asked.
"Yes, exactly. Moreover, on the third day, even the prison guards who were on duty that night heard that voice. But when he ran out of the duty room to check, he found that the detention center was completely empty. Lin Shixuan smiled bitterly and said: "So, now in that detention center, the news of haunting in the middle of the night has been spread one after another, and the whole people are panicking." Not to mention the suspects, even the prison guards, when they were on duty at night, they were all trembling. ”
Immediately afterwards, he explained: "Of course, after seeing the resentful spirits, I know that although there are indeed some existences in this world that are beyond human common sense, but I also know that this matter can never be caused by the resentful spirits, because it is impossible for the resentful spirits to make footsteps. ”
"So, you want me to find out, who is this ghost and deliberately disturbing people's hearts? And, what is his purpose? After listening to this, Mu Zihan pondered for a while and said.
"That's right, after all, in this detention center, there are also six members of the "Butterfly" organization who were arrested during the last operation, and I suspect that they are playing ghosts. The purpose is to fish in troubled waters and find an opportunity to escape from prison. Lin Shixuan replied: "However, because of their special status, they are separated from other suspects and held in solitary confinement." And after I knew that this had happened, I went out of my way to check on them, and found that there was nothing unusual about these six people. ”
"Is this really a real-life version of Prison Break?" I said with a wry smile.
"Whether or not the purpose behind this is to escape from prison is uncertain. However, this kind of little trick, don't compare them with "Prison Break". Mu Zihan pouted and smiled, as if he already knew what was going on.
"Little trick? You know what's going on? Lin Shixuan was also stunned, and then asked excitedly.
"Let me ask you, what are the floors of the detention center you are talking about? And those suspects who heard footsteps in the middle of the night were all held in the cells on which floors? Mu Zihan didn't answer Lin Shixuan directly, but asked rhetorically.
"The detention center is relatively small, only three stories high, and I really can't say at this time what floor the suspects' cells are." Lin Shixuan said a little embarrassed.
"Tell you, I can guarantee that the cells where the suspects who heard footsteps in the middle of the night must be on the third floor. And. The prison guard who heard the footsteps that day must have been in the duty room on the third floor at the time. Mu Zihan said with confidence.
"How can you be so sure? Have you already investigated? Lin Shixuan asked with a puzzled expression.
"This kind of thing still needs to be investigated. Because, the sound of footsteps and dragging did not come from the third floor, but from the fourth floor. And to hear the footsteps on the fourth floor, it can only be the person who lives on the third floor. Mu Zihan said with a smile.
"The fourth floor? It's only the third floor, where did it come from...... Ah, I see. It's no wonder that all surveillance cameras don't capture people. Lin Shixuan suddenly realized, hurriedly said goodbye, and rushed away. Seeing that he was in a hurry, he was obviously ordered by Mu Zihan to figure out the truth behind this strange thing, so he rushed to the office to solve it.
It's just that the two of them figured it out, but I was still a little confused, so I said what Lin Shixuan hadn't finished asking before: "Zihan, the detention center is obviously only on the third floor, why do you say that the footsteps are coming from the fourth floor?" ”
