Chapter 2: Isa's Mansion Chapter 17: The Murderous House

Quest for Exploration, Day 2. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

13:20 p.m., Beihai Town, on the outskirts of the city.

Wang Ji arrived in Beihai Town with the car and visited with the Wang team. Compared with other experienced police officers, Wang Ji and these young people also need to be led by a master, and Liu Xiaonan and other young police officers are also there, led by Wang Jianjun.

The city and the suburbs are two completely different landscapes, the urban shade can only block the small storefronts and ordinary streets, and the majestic high-rise buildings can still reflect the steel shape of the city. After arriving in Beihai Town, it is a quiet town scenery, with huge banyan trees that can reach 15 meters high and cover half of the entire courtyard. When the police car stopped, Wang Ji could still hear the barking of dogs in the town.

"It's here, get off!"

Team Wang opened the car door and shouted.

Together with Liu Xiaonan, Wang Ji began to visit. This kind of work is simply daylight, Liu Xiaonan chatted with the townspeople, and the sweet smile made the interviewed townspeople like a spring breeze, she took notes seriously, asking serious topics, and Wang Ji stood aside to ask the old man about the local legends of the mansion.

"Anyway, you have to work, we can understand, your captain should also go to see Director Zhang of the police station, right? I've got a piece of advice for you......"

The old man lowered his voice and whispered to Wang Ji: "If you want to enter the mansion to investigate, young man, be smart, if others go in, you must not follow up." ”

"Remembered."

Wang Jibao with a serious attitude.

One is a serious visit, the other is a whispered discussion of feudal superstitions. It's to be expected that we don't get along very well. Coming out of a courtyard, Liu Xiaonan seriously criticized Wang Ji: "The captain said that you have a psychological shadow, I think you are quite leisurely." After a while, visit some of the questions that should be asked, and don't ask those who have or don't. ”

"Okay."

Wang Ji responded. He did not conflict with Liu Xiaonan because of this. The old man's mysterious words really made him deepen his thoughts, don't enter the mansion easily, even if he wants to go in, he must not go in alone.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the task force gathered in front of the Isha Mansion. After checking the files at the town police station, the Wang team brought some police officers from the police station over, and the police cars stopped in front of the Isha Mansion. After taking a rough look at the visit records, the Wang team asked the staff to unlock the lock.

The gate of the manor where the mansion is located is locked.

The gate of the iron fence is marked with a sign of cultural relics. Explain that the mansion is a product of Sino-foreign exchanges and has a rich history. The mansion was originally intended for open tourism, as can be seen from the signage. However, the town government closed the mansion for some special reasons, and the locals spread horrible rumors about the mansion, saying that Lady Isa could be heard crying here, and that during the day, they could see portraits in the corridors of the mansion laughing and watching them. For various reasons, this place is temporarily closed, and the lock on the iron door is also rusty.

The gate opened, and the king team was the first to walk in, and a gust of wind in the manor suddenly blew, and actually lifted the king's hat aside. The police officers of the local town police station immediately stopped.

"Do you really want to go in?"

The director asked in a somewhat stiff tone, which seemed very unnatural.

"Of course."

Team Wang picked up his police hat and put it back on his head.

"Wang Ji, you follow me into the mansion, and the others will see what clues there are in the manor. I suspect there's an underground passage or something in this manor. After all, it was built in a special period, you look at the four towers...... Why are there only two left? ”

As Captain Wang spoke, he suddenly found that the number of watchtowers was wrong, and immediately turned back to ask the director. There were originally four large watchtowers in the manor, but now only two remain. The other two actually collapsed.

"Yesterday morning at half past nine, this morning at half past nine. It was about these two points in time that the watchtowers collapsed one after another. The director said meaningfully, "That's why I'm saying that this situation is not right lately, and if you want to investigate this matter, you can wait." ”

"Yesterday morning, at half past nine, around this point in time, I contacted Laboratory Plane A and confirmed the fact that I was a hunter. The watchtower collapsed around this point in time, as it is today. So the collapse of the watchtower, can it represent a kind of time lapse in days? ”

Wang Ji whispered in his heart.

"Wang Ji, come with me."

Captain Wang called Wang Ji neatly, and he refused to talk to the town chief about the topic of choosing a day. Striding towards the manor, Wang Ji followed quickly, without any complaints or fear.

"Xiao Nan, you and Xiao Li go over there. You go to the watchtower. Beware of buildings falling into disrepair and don't break in. ”

After assigning the task neatly, the Wang team took Wang Ji to the mansion.

The location of the mansion is not in the center of the manor, but in the northerly direction, facing south. The manor trees enclosed within the walls are dense, tropical plants are transplanted here and are actually alive and well, and the banana leaves rustle in the warm afternoon breeze, as if the inside and outside of the walls are not a climate at all, which is extremely strange.

Crunch.

The heavy door of the mansion was pushed open by the royal team.

The thick historical atmosphere and the dark solemnity came into view, and the solemn hall was displayed in front of the two people. Tables, wooden chairs, paintings, vases, etc., are all very exquisite. The whole hall was enveloped and swallowed up by an atmosphere of solemnity and gloom.

"Let's see."

The captain said without looking back.

Following him, Wang Ji began to investigate in the mansion with a large area. On the first floor and the second floor, the balcony office, the staggered layout was all in his mind. Although it was daytime, the lighting inside the mansion was really not very good, and the captain had no intention of opening the curtains that might fall down if he pulled them slightly, so the two of them began to investigate in this gloomy place, and tried to find some secret passages and other places. The captain said that he had to find out the structure and environment of the entire mansion first.

After inspecting the environment of the first bedroom, Wang Ji followed the captain out of the bedroom and prepared to go to the second hall. He was just about to leave when he suddenly looked back and felt a pair of eyes looking at him, and this moment of discovery seemed to be an illusion, and when his attention really passed, the eyes that were watching him secretly were gone. However, Wang Ji's eyes moved when he saw the portrait hanging on the wall. In a poorly lit mansion, the feeling is undoubtedly creepy.

Almost at the same time, the captain also turned his head.

"What did you find?"

The captain asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Didn't find it." Wang Ji replied, "I just feel uncomfortable in my back." ”

"It's right that our backs are uncomfortable, because someone is watching us."

The captain's eyes took on a look of unanger, and he hurried to the fireplace, looking at the portrait hanging on the wall. Reach out and start checking around the fireplace.

Wang Ji followed.

The portrait depicts a bearded general with a piercing gaze looking into the distance. When Wang Ji looked at the portrait, he felt that more eyes were looking at him on his left, and he turned around but found nothing, only a photo on the cabinet, a group photo of the general and his executioners. Everything really looks like the local legend, and the people in the portraits really want to look at them.

"Didn't find it."

After searching the fireplace, the captain shook his head, turned his head and said to Wang Ji: "But as Lao Li said, the psychological hints here are really powerful. When I look at the portrait above, I feel that there are a lot of people staring at me again. Do you feel this way? ”

"Nope."

Wang Ji replied that he had lied.

"It's okay, at least it shows that you're not weak-hearted."

The captain nodded, not suspicious. The way Wang Ji spoke and that unspeakable indifference was indeed not a lie, and there was really no need for him to lie at this point.

"That's it, let's go. It doesn't feel good in it, and I don't know why those people lived in this kind of place in the first place. ”

The captain waved his hand, signaling that Wang Ji's investigation was over ahead of schedule. Although he didn't say it explicitly, Wang Ji could feel that this captain, who was extremely efficient and had a very serious work attitude, was a little scared.

The captain went out first, and Wang Ji went out later. Before leaving, he took one last look at the group photo on the table, at the executioners with their heads covered with sackcloth, and he looked at the people in the photo, and those people seemed to be looking at him. This staring lasted for about two seconds, and Wang Ji turned to leave. He could feel what the captain could feel, and he thought more about it. He had a bad premonition about the unidentified creatures that would appear tonight.

16:40 p.m., Provincial Highway 72.

On the way back, the members of the task force began to communicate with each other and explain the situation of the visit. The captain said: "Wang Ji and I did feel something very strange in the mansion. Have you heard of those legends? Indeed, there is a strong psychological suggestion in that mansion, and when I look at a photo, I always feel that the person in the photo next to me is looking at me. When I'm not looking, I feel like the people in these pictures are watching me. It's an indescribable feeling. ”

The captain looked a little restless as he spoke.

"Wang Ji, do you feel it too?" Liu Xiaonan, who was sitting next to Wang Ji, asked.

"I just don't feel well, but I can't detect what Team Wang said." Wang Ji said. The police officer on the side analyzed: "It may be the awareness of investigation!" Team Wang, you have too strong a sense of detection. That's why I feel that way. As for Wang Ji, his sense of investigation must be weaker. ”

The police officer's evaluation of Wang Ji was very tactful.

"Speaking of which, there was originally a store of wax figures in the manor warehouse, but those relics have actually melted away. It may be that the weather is too hot, and the manor has been locked, not to mention that the watchtower has collapsed, and no one cares about those wax figures, and now they are all destroyed. ”

The police officers were talking to each other, and Wang Ji listened silently in his heart, and began to analyze the information he knew.

"The wax figures have melted. I'm not sure if they cease to exist because of that. If so, when Lab A reminds me of an unknown creature for the second time, the unidentified creature is referring to something different here than the first time. If they were still wax figures, they wouldn't be considered unidentified creatures, because they were already 'clear' to me. For the first time, they were guarding my house because they couldn't identify me, and now that I've been to Isha's Mansion, if they come to me again...... It's time for me to hide. ”

Thinking of this, Wang Ji silently clenched his fists.

"I'll be back in town before sunset. Unidentified creatures will also appear. I'll have to find a way to get a weapon to protect myself. There is no difference between a hunter and a prey without weapons and tools. There's no reason why the unidentified creatures of the second night will be worse than the first, and it's almost predictable that it will be harder for me to survive this night. ”
