This ninth floor is actually very different from the other floors, because this floor is very high, in fact, the ninth and tenth floors are combined, turning into a large auditorium that can accommodate about 1,000 people!

The auditorium is stepped from the door to the stage, and the whole space is divided into two floors, the first floor can accommodate about 800 ordinary seats, and the second floor is soft seats, which can accommodate about 2 or 300 people, but there are not many seats on the second floor, a typical old-fashioned cinema structure.

Directly opposite the seat is a wide stage, whether it is a party or a drama, the performance on it is quite spacious, and standing at the angle of Rowan and others, you can clearly see the lifting and hanging device hidden on the top of the stage, no need to ask, there should be a movie here, but now the oversized movie screen has been dilapidated.

There are several large rectangular holes exposed on both sides of the stage, from the perspective of size, it should be an old-fashioned large speaker, but it should have been lost for some years, after all, although the power of that kind of sound is not small in this era, the sound quality is not even high-fidelity, if it is sold, it will make a copper wire money, so it should have been put into someone else's pocket in the nineties.

The decoration style of the entire auditorium has a strong pre-Soviet heritage, from the typical Roman columns to the European-like balustrade design, and even to the wall patterns and wooden flap seats, and even the decayed and gorgeous crystal chandeliers on the ceiling, to make people feel like they are in Eastern Europe.

But what made Rowan stand motionless, and even couldn't believe what he saw in front of him, was actually on this row of wooden seats, because in front of him, the backs of these nearly a thousand seats were all covered with human skins!

Some of these people were clothed, some were naked, because the auditorium chairs were old-fashioned down-flap seats, and in order to sit on them, they had to be weighted enough to press down the flaps. So they were all placed flat on the backs of the auditorium seats, facing the sky.

The texture of the skin is clearly visible, the pores are unnaturally enlarged because they have lost their moisture and elasticity, and some of them are still very fresh from the degree of dryness of the skin, which can be seen from the lipstick that has not faded.

The age and gender of these skins varies, men, women, the elderly, children, and even pregnant women, judging from the clothing, the work is also all-encompassing, telling the past before death. Now it's a bunch of skins spread out here.

And these skins look as if they are drying dried fish, all of them have weak and empty facial cracks, under the light of this miserable white and cold flashlight, the horror is simply self-evident!

Walking in the middle of it, the smell of leather emitted by the human skin seems to be frozen in the air, and the wind driven by walking makes this smell penetrate into the nostrils, and it is associated with the involuntary urge to vomit everywhere.

The whole auditorium seems to have entered the freezing point, in Sichuan this month. But it also makes people's backs cold, their palms sweaty, and goosebumps all over their bodies, which makes people tense every nerve. The breathing became not smooth, and sometimes there was even no air in and out, and cold sweat slowly slid down the forehead!

This huge auditorium is like a cemetery, and the rows of seats are like tombstones. There is no epitaph, but it tells the loss of a living life, and it is impossible to imagine where their families are and what they are doing at this time. But they should all look forward to them returning to their side and telling them the pain of parting, but they know that the road has been separated from the world, turning into a wisp of ghost and falling into the underworld.

The sea swallowed, his eyes widened, and he said in a trembling voice by the light of five flashlights: "I, I'm a mother!" This is where his grandmother stores autumn vegetables! Hey, your grandma's legs! How many people have to eat this uncle! ”

Fang Yu's hand covered his mouth with a slight tremble, and the emotions in his eyes were complicated and slightly wet. The dog's nose kept rubbing his nose, not knowing where to put his eyes, Zu Long squatted on it and looked at Luo Wen clenching his fists, he didn't know if Luo Dao Luo Wen's thoughts were the same as his own at this time, but he had already made up his mind, no matter what he meant, this Tai Sui couldn't stay!

"Check!"

With a word from Rowan, several people began to search the entire auditorium, although the dog nose clearly said that there was no one here, but they still had to be cautious, and everyone pulled out their weapons and carefully found every suspicious place, and never gave up a corner.

There were a total of 1,200 seats in the entire auditorium, with a total of 732 human skins, of which men, women, and children, all of whom died of the same cause, all of whom should have been sucked by Tai Sui, and in this somewhat cold and damp auditorium, there was no sign of mold and decay in the human skin, and at the same time, no trace of residue was found except for skin, hair, and nails.

A few of these skins are naked, most of them are clothed, and through the examination of the items on the human skins, these people are either locals or foreign workers, covering almost all walks of life, with no commonality, no similarities, and it is obvious that they attack indiscriminately.

The locker room and the waiting lounge behind the stage in the auditorium, although the doors were locked, but after being knocked open by the sea, there was nothing but suffocating dust and a small number of tables and chairs, Fang Yu didn't know anything about the scene survey, so he had to follow Luo Wen's ass and watch Luo Wen search for footprints and fingerprints.

"Scared?" Luo Wen didn't look up, frowned, and asked Fang Yu behind him while squinting at the outside of the stage with one eye.

"Where?" Fang Yu's heart tightened, and at the same time he looked back at the human skin with a big mouth in the first row, but he still said hard-mouthed.

Luo Wen glanced back at Fang Yu, at this time, Fang Yu's right hand was tightly holding the nine-section whip, although his head was facing Luo Wen, his body was slightly sideways, and his heels seemed to be raised, obviously ready to enter the battle state at any time, and when he saw Luo Wen looking at her, he didn't care about putting on an expression of love.

"Hard mouthed" Rowan turned his head and squinted at the stage like a carpenter.

Fang Yu took a step in the direction of Luo Wen, and then pretended to follow Luo Wen's gaze with great interest to stare at the table, and then asked, "What did you find?" ”

Rowan didn't look back: "A lot of footprints were found on the ground, all of them belonged to Gao Wenda, this is easy to say, Tai Sui sucked people's flesh and bones, and he couldn't bring the other party's belt back here by himself, so this job must have been done by Gao Wenda." There's not much to say about that.

But the point is that there are a lot of footprints on the board, I have carefully watched the entire stage, there are no traces of life and no people can be hidden, in this case, why does Gao Wenda leave footprints on this? Just to see if you are putting these people in the right way?

And judging from the footprints on the stage, Gao Wenda walks the same route every time, as if he is performing a ritual, which is a bit confusing"

"Ritual?" Fang Yu asked curiously.

Rowan nodded: "He always goes up from the left side of the stage, and then in the middle of the stage, and the front of the stage will stop for a long time." The difference between the left and right is not more than a meter, and the strange thing is that after arriving here, the footprints become messy and incomplete, and they seem to be random, which is a bit incompatible with his rigorous behavior of going up and down left and right."

Fang Yu used a flashlight to shine in the middle of the stage, and found that it was indeed much different from other places, compared to the thick dust in other places on the stage, it was as if someone was cleaning it regularly, although Fang Yu couldn't see the messy footprints that Luo Wen had done. But this did not affect Fang Yu to make a judgment.

"Gao Wenda is a cultist?" Fang Yu turned his head and asked Luo Wen.

Rowan was stunned when he heard this, and then recalled it repeatedly for a long time, and then nodded: "I remember that he does have something hanging on his chest, but I can't guarantee that he is not a disciple."

Fang Yu leaned against the stage and put his hands in his pockets. Looking at the rows of human skin, he shuddered before saying, "He should look like a believer, and he should also be a devout believer." So he wasn't doing some kind of ritual, but every time he came here, he saw rows of chairs that looked like tombstones. and the human skins, he knelt here to make confessions. ”

Rowan looked back at the traces on the stage, no. The footprints and friction marks were caused by a person kneeling here every time, and Rowan was too preconceived to ignore the most reasonable explanation. But what did Gao Wenda do for him? These should have nothing to do with him, even if they do, then compared to Gao Wenda, he should repent to Hua Qiang's death, what does it have to do with these people?

Zulong, the sea and the dog's nose, the three of them returned to the stage of the auditorium without finding anything, and Rowan understood from the eyes of the three people that there was no trace, but Rowan was not depressed, because when he arrived here, he was quite close to the truth.

Luo Wen's fingers rhythmically tapped on the stage board, his eyes moved back and forth between these skins, and then he lit a cigarette and said: "In this way, these skins should have been collected by Gao Wenda, and he placed the skins here in such a regular manner, and repented here, which shows that he thinks that the deaths of these people are directly or indirectly related to him, and for him, this is a place for his soul to be redeemed."

The sea dug his nose and asked, "Then I don't understand, this person should have been killed by Tai Sui, why did Gao Wenda have such a big reaction?" ”

Fang Yu frowned slightly and said, "It is very likely that just like Hua Qiang's death, he not only did not stop Tai Sui's passage, but also became an accomplice."

Zu Long waved with the lancet in his hand in disapproval: "There are hundreds of people here, so it's not like Gao Wenda was secretly assisting Tai Sui from the beginning, right?" After all, when you were stationed in the Information Department, you confirmed that Gao Wenda was once trapped there, and the problem in the Information Department should be recently, otherwise there is no reason why the three-month routine inspection cannot be discovered, so it means that Gao Wenda should not be able to become Tai Sui's accomplice for no more than two months.

But there are hundreds of human skins here, even if the three months are full, how many people can Tai Sui eat in a day, obviously it can't be more than 20 people, right? And Tai Sui eats two people a day at most at a time, in terms of time, Gao Wenda will not help Tai Sui from the beginning, I think it will be a month at most"

Rowan flicked the cigarette butt: "There must be blind spots and clues that we haven't noticed, and the most important thing is why Gao Wenda did this?" If we are blackmailed, we need more clues about why there will be no contact with the office, and the secrets hidden in this factory will help us uncover all this."

"So what's going on now?" The sea asked, scratching his ass.

Rowan checked the next three revolvers: "Conduct a carpet search of the entire factory area, and do not miss any clues, I believe that since Gao Wenda has chosen this place, he will definitely leave traces and clues of life, as long as the person who finds him, everything will be easy."

After speaking, Rowan walked towards the stairs behind the auditorium, but when the five people just stepped out of the door of the auditorium and did not enter the stairs, they suddenly heard a crisp click sound in the auditorium behind them! (To be continued......)
