Chen Mo had a dream all night, the image of the slender man and the clown kept alternating in the dream, whether it was the voice of the clown laughing, or the shadow of the slender man wandering in the depths of the faint mist, and in the end, the figure of the girl surnamed Xie appeared inexplicably, but she was like those monsters, shuttling through the crowd of the city, but no one could see her.

When I got up, it was already more than ten o'clock in the morning, and the mobile phone alarm clock didn't know when it had been turned off by myself, and it didn't wake up at all, and the whole head was also groggy.

I'm definitely going to be late for work, and no colleague calls me at this point, it doesn't matter if I go or not, anyway, it's Shen Wanhua's company, just throw away the phone, take a shower and think about something else.

I got up in bed in the morning and took a hot shower and felt a lot more comfortable up and down, and I habitually walked to the window and looked downstairs, and there were a few more people who seemed to be dressed in blood-stained sheets in the hospital by the old pond in the community, with long hair and shawls, and I thought it was a woman when I looked at the back, but the front face looked like the face of a platypus.

Because he often sees all kinds of monsters, Chen Mo often looks up some monster information on the Internet, but he has heard of similar monsters, it seems to be called "washerman" or something, anyway, Chen Mo is the first time to see this kind of monster, it doesn't seem to be an auspicious thing.

Check it out on the Internet, it says that the "washerman" comes from the legend of the Scottish Highlands, and only the dying will see it, and as death approaches, it will get closer and closer until the moment when it finally comes to the door.

Looking at the monsters that looked like wooden stakes, Chen Mo couldn't help but think of what happened yesterday, and felt more and more uncomfortable in his heart.

Just as he was still in doubt, a phone call suddenly came in.

Chen Mo picked up the phone casually and saw that it was Song Yunzhe.

"Something?"

"It's inconvenient to come to the police station." Song Yunzhe's tone was straight to the point.

"What's wrong?" Glancing at the few monsters downstairs that looked like "washermen", Chen Mo couldn't help frowning.

"Lao Xie is missing!" After being silent for a long time, Song Yunzhe finally said.

"I said Officer Song, the disappearance case was only accepted at the police station 72 hours after the disappearance of the person, not to mention what does his disappearance have to do with me?" said so, but Chen Mo subconsciously linked Officer Xie's disappearance to yesterday's events and the washerman in front of him.

"Old Xie Liuxin said that he was going to get his daughter back."

Chen Mo suddenly chuckled in his heart.

It didn't take long for Chen Mo to arrive at the police station. This time was different from yesterday, and Song Yunzhe specially arranged a meeting in a secluded office.

As soon as they entered the office, Song Yunzhe directly took out a USB flash drive and inserted it into the computer, while handing Chen Mo a piece of stationery.

A very ordinary piece of office letterhead, but with a few large characters written on it with a marker:

"I'm going to find Xiaorui!"

At the end is a big exclamation mark, and Officer Xie should be very nervous when writing, each stroke is written very hard, but not very neatly.

"That's it? It's like Lop Nur! Chen Mo flicked the letter paper, and then handed it back to Song Yunzhe.

"Do you think so?" Song Yunzhe glanced at Chen Mo strangely and said.

"What the hell is going on?" Chen Mo said.

"Lao Xie's disappearance was discovered by a colleague who went to visit early in the morning!" Song Yunzhe paused and told the previous situation.

Originally, because of Xie Xiaorui's bizarre death, the bureau arranged for Officer Xie to rest for a while, I heard that Officer Xie left the forensic department in a bad mood last night, Officer Xie is also a senior in the bureau, in line with the concern for colleagues, the bureau arranged for someone to go to condole.

Unexpectedly, the phone was called several times in the morning, but no one answered, and the colleague felt that something was wrong, so he immediately rushed to Officer Xie's house.

Officer Xie divorced his wife very early, and has been living in the apartment assigned by the unit with his daughter, although the apartment is relatively old, but such as camera surveillance, security and property management are very complete in place, because it is a unit apartment, the key of each family will generally be backed up in the property, after all, the house is not personal, of course, the main thing is to prevent some emergencies.

Of course, in addition to the old house, in terms of the surrounding environment and infrastructure, it is also worthy of this old policeman who has worked in the public security department for most of his life.

When I arrived at Officer Xie's place, I naturally couldn't knock on the door for a long time, and thanks to the key that was specially backed up here, I made a report to my superiors, and went directly to the property to open Officer Xie's house.

As expected, Officer Xie was not in the house, only left this creepy letter on the coffee table in the living room.

Yesterday's incident was no longer a trivial matter, and today it came out again, the bureau naturally attached great importance to it, immediately sent people to look for it, and arranged for people to make every effort to solve the case as soon as possible, Song Yunzhe thought of Chen Mo's part, and naturally immediately called Chen Mo over.

"Do you want to see the video of Lao Xie?" Song Yunzhe asked lightly.

I casually opened the folder of the USB flash drive on the computer and pointed:

"That's it, this is Lao Xie's last video, Lao Xie's house is not high, the three cameras completely covered the doors and windows of his house, but until I entered his house, I only saw him enter the door at 12:32 last night, and I haven't seen him come out again. By the way, can you see a monster or something on video? Song Yunzhe said.

Chen Mo looked at the video, the video is divided into four sections, which are the part where Officer Xie walked in from outside the community, walked through the community, and walked through the stairway on the first and second floors, the four videos are not long, from outside the community, you can see Officer Xie getting off a taxi, and then he hurried home, leaving in a hurry, as if he didn't even take the money that the driver looked for him.

The part that passes through the community is relatively blurry, but in the part of the staircase, you can clearly see Officer Xie frowning, looking solemn and nervous, as if there is something very important to go home.

"That's all, and his gun and five bullets are gone, except for the world of those monsters, I can't think of any other place where he needs to carry a gun and see Xie Xiaorui again, you know, he came out of Xie Xiaorui's morgue last night, in order not to make him overly sad, the forensic colleague didn't let him stay in the morgue not long in the afternoon, and he stayed until more than twelve o'clock in the evening."

Song Yunzhe tapped his desk with two fingers, paused and said:

"You know, Lao Xie has always been a very frugal person, usually riding his own bicycle, according to the video, it is obvious that something has happened that makes him extremely nervous or extremely urgent. For example..."Song Yunzhe clicked on the letter with five big characters written on it.

"Xie Xiaorui's ghost?" Chen Mo answered solemnly.

"There is a possibility of doubt until the truth is confirmed, I can't prove the existence of something, but at least I can't prove that it doesn't exist, by the way, can your eyes see ghosts like the legendary yin and yang eyes?" Song Yunzhe stared into Chen Mo's eyes and asked, as if he wanted to gain insight into another world through the reflection of his pupils.

"Those monsters can't be captured with video equipment, and unless the monsters are actually in our world and are videotaped like in that photo, I can't see anything else in the footage! And, so far, I've never seen anyone's ghost. Chen Mo replied lightly, but he couldn't help but think of the weird dream last night and the "washermen" who appeared downstairs in the morning.

It seems that he should have expected that those monsters would come to this world sooner or later, and in this world, there are also people who can pass, but why can an ordinary-looking middle-aged policeman actually do this, what kind of connection does there exist between the clown choosing to kill Xie Xiaorui and this, and now, how many people in this world can see or perceive the monster world as much as themselves!

For a while, Chen Mo only felt a mess in his head.
