Chapter 10: A Journey into the Tube Building

The outline of the teaching building in the distance only has a pale blue color.

Seventy-six hours after the paranormal event in the video, a man and a woman appeared in front of the abandoned building of the black hole of the Capital University. Now it's closed all year round, and the cobwebs in the cracks of the doors are getting a centimeter thick.

Speaking of which, this tube building is both ordinary and extraordinary, perhaps it is destined to exist alone, according to the floor plan found by Shi Lingren, it was originally used as a teacher's dormitory building, but it turned out to be because of the poor lighting, and it can only be distributed to female students to make a dormitory building, and the tube building is living alone in such a campus corner, lonely and lonely stay there, like a small boat moored on the shore, and the distance is the geographical location of the wharf.

It's so quiet in the morning. The cherry blossom forest in front of and behind the building is dark and fragrant, and thousands of branches and leaves are swaying in the wind, and the sound is louder than imagined.

This man and a woman, of course, me and Shi Lingren.

Shi Lingren claimed to have come after I asked me several times and reluctantly, but in fact, I was pulled by him.

Although this guy has always been duplicitous, I have already seen through everything. This is a dead child with a strong rebellious mentality, I guess if it weren't for the drunken You Yimo coming home, this guy wouldn't have been able to visit the tube building that night.

That's right, when we left the cattail swing café last night, You Yimo was already drunk and couldn't tell the difference...... It's also the first time I've ever seen anyone get drunk when they drink coffee, even if it's Irish coffee. Luckily, there weren't many people in the café at night, otherwise it would have been a surprise.

The sober You Yimo is a female man, and she has no chance with a lady after being drunk, and she pours out any topic, such as being sent from the women's special police team to the traffic police department with enthusiasm, and then transferred to the general team by mistake, but she found that it sounded better to be "the new department", and to put it bluntly, she was exiled to the frontier. For some reason, the current detachment of the Criminal Investigation Corps is ostensibly aimed at handling serious cases, but in fact it is just a bench member responsible for sorting out materials and collecting messes. And any community volunteer service, opening ceremony to maintain order, will be transferred to help, several times to protest can not be helped, "After all, you have no other work to do." It's okay to come out and support. "It's no different from being thrown into the cold - it's crazy.

Another example is the current unscrupulous media, obviously the suspect in a certain case is just an imbecile who cut a girl's skirt with scissors, and when they turn their clever pen, it becomes a continuous female injury case, and after being reprinted by the Internet media, it has become a number of serial kidnapping murders, what murderer kidnapped the victim while the girl was on the way from school, and then directly abandoned the victim's body, how many girls have been killed, and one person is missing. However, the police blocked the news, and the headlines such as the victim's death were simply outrageous.

In order to solve the case, the police are forced to invest a lot of police force in those trivial and minor cases. However, if there is a major case like the one that has really happened now, public opinion is in an uproar, and all parties must be held accountable and the police, and calls from officials from various departments to enthusiastic citizens have come one after another, which has interfered with the normal case-handling procedures.

The new captain of the second cargo is not worry-free, the young man is not like many criminal policemen on the front line with a burly figure and a terrible face, but he is a white-faced scholar, wearing a pair of silver-rimmed glasses to pretend to be Sven, like nothing but not like a policeman.

I heard that the person is as his name suggests, he is a second-generation gold-plated person, but he is unconscious, and he wants to be the kind of detective in American dramas. As soon as he came to the office, he stared at the old file and asked, "What do you think are the common interests of those sex offenders at the psychological level?" "Does the motivation of a serial killer have anything to do with what food he likes? It's not CSI!

――You Yimo began to wonder if the captain of the second cargo still thought that he was an intern at the FBI. Just being sent to this inexplicable new unit is boring to death, and now I am still a colleague with this kind of guy, how can I be energetic? In the words of You Yimo, "I don't care if he's a turtle expert or something, why do we old birds listen to a layman commanding the east and the west?" That's enough."

- I'm fed up, these people are all the same!

The last poor student and a drunken cat failed to pay the bill for the café, and it was the café's barista who offered to give us a free order—and I learned that it was a long-haired woman in a dark blue suit who made the delicious coffee.

"Who are you?"

"I'm a barista in this shop, and I'm also an old acquaintance of Mr. Shi."

She answered my questions straightforwardly, with a mature charm that was different from that of college students, and her eyes when she looked at Shi Ling were obviously adulterous!

If I were to ask, I guess the answer would only be "one of my old customers".

"Damn!"

"What do you think, are you afraid?"

"No, I'm not afraid." Why am I surrounded by people who can't spit out ivory? With a "tsk", I deliberately showed that I was not afraid of heaven and earth, but in fact, if I hadn't concentrated all my energy in my throat, my voice would have trembled. I have to admit that the strange feeling of the clouds and fog in the tube building and the fact of Yu Gongyin's death are pressing on my chest.

If I don't concentrate on what I don't have, I'm really afraid that my legs will go limp and collapse on the spot.

"Let's go, then."

Shi Ling stood in front of the door and inserted a wire from the gadget from his pocket into the keyhole.

However, this is only redundant. Before he could turn the wire, the door was open.

Did the previous security guards not lock the door, or was someone else on the expedition?

The two of us glanced at each other, saw each other's expressions of refusal to admit defeat, and pushed open the door without saying a word in a solemn atmosphere, and stepped into the building.

The light of the mobile phone illuminated the room, and the fallen leaves that had strayed in from the outside fell to the ground.

Whenever we step on fallen leaves, the sound of crackling echoes in the house.

The air was very heavy and had a musty smell. The smell is truly suffocating.

Shi Lingren used his mobile phone to take pictures of the rooms on both sides of the corridor and observe the situation inside.

The layout of each room is the same, square, one bed and one window; It's a functional building like a student dormitory, and everything is normal.

I tugged at the hem of Shi Lingren's shirt to keep it from getting separated from him, and kept an eye on my feet as I cautiously walked forward.

The two of us walked cautiously to the corridor that led to the depths of the building. To melt the tension, we chatted about inconsequential gossip along the way.

Enter the living room full of wine bottles and biscuit bags. It's too exaggerated to mess up like this, even if a man lives alone, he won't make the house like this.

"That female police officer really surprised me, it's rare to see her ...... like this."

"Eclectic?"

"Yes, eclectic women." I thought that all women in the workplace only had an evolutionary form of "white bone essence", and they were divided into "cold" iceberg beauties or "gluttonous" phoenix lazi, so I thought that there was also this kind of "big and transformed".

In the second half of last night's café conversation, it was more about You Yimo complaining.

How easy it would be if all criminals were evildoers who are angry with God - the real world does not accept the punishment of evil and the promotion of good. Everyone's values and beliefs are different, and criminal cases are not only a matter of victims and perpetrators, but also those who are implicated. Anger, hatred, sadness, jealousy, when she spoke, I looked at the drunken side of the face of You Yimo every day, carrying the torrent of all kinds of negative emotions of human beings.

Probably she was also angry with herself. Freshmen always have to enter the workplace. It was the same when I first entered the police force. Maybe it's naïve, but at that time, we were full of a sense of justice and mission, and we were also indulging in fantasies all day long like the second cargo captain, believing that we could save the vast majority of people. However, the old birds advised us three times and twice: "Don't think so much, this is how the world is." If you don't see this sooner, you'll end up suffering yourself. ”

And now You Yimo must have felt that the old policemen were right. She was disillusioned in just a few years. No, it shouldn't be disillusioned, it's that she herself is too naïve. How is it possible for a person to solve all problems as handsomely as a hero in an art exhibition?

She no longer expects herself to get ahead. The so-called getting ahead is nothing more than a symbol of self-expression; She doesn't care about the fact that the members of the task force are scheming for fame and fortune, but she doesn't want the perfunctory bureaucratic style and the unscrupulous media to add fuel to the fire, and involve the victim and unrelated people in this right and wrong.

To get to the bottom of the matter, under this kind of organization with a case-solving rate, no matter how hard the police from the bottom try to climb up, they will not have a good future. It's a game of thrones that has already been scripted. There is really little point in trying to get promoted in an organization that has no system but has forgotten its duty. Not only that, but in recent years, there have also been scandals in the police circles, and this kind of organization is simply destroyed! You Yimo also seriously thought about it. Why did she stay here when she thought the organization was terrible—she didn't know, so she was angry.

This is how many people have gone from hot-blooded youths to old oilers. However, You Yimo couldn't do it. As a woman, she stands with the vulnerable people who have been involved in crime, and she is angry, crying, and screaming with them against this hopeless society. Knowing that she could not resist the inertia of the huge organization of the police, she still resisted to the death, and as a result, she was gradually isolated. Even so, she is still unwilling to be with the light, and would rather pay for the case out of her own pocket in private.

If it weren't for the fact that she was drunk and didn't distinguish between east, west, north and south, it would be hard to guarantee that she wouldn't have climbed up and launched the "café incident". Will she be tomorrow's you and me?

"Maybe she's just trying to trick you into achieving your ulterior motives...... For example, I will develop you into an ear for me! Shi Ling said jokingly.

"It's impossible, words can deceive people, but the details of food, clothing, housing and transportation won't." I said confidently, after all, I helped You Yimo into her living room, which was full of wine bottles and biscuit bags. It's too exaggerated to mess like this, even if a bachelor lives alone, he won't make his home like this.

At this time, Shi Lingren suddenly stopped.

"According to that Teacher Zhu, did they have an accident at the end of this corridor?"

"Yes" I also found a problem, the door of the corridor is iron, and it is a digital lock, which is obviously the security measure of the school later. Press the unlock key. The screen saver is deactivated and the user is asked to type in the password.

"So how do we get in?" Do you want to go home, a little unwilling?

Shi Ling people are eager to try. "You know what? After this kind of digital lock leaves the factory, the password will be reset, and at the computer level of those administrators in our school, there are probably only so few...... I can't say for sure, but it's worth a try. ”

Makes sense. "This is also a must-have skill for a gentleman?"

"This ...... I've heard it too, but I don't really know it......"

"Then we're not going to have to wander around here, are we?"

"You guessed it. The basis of any hacking technique is exhaustive! By the way, do you know how many students there are at this university in total? ”

Shi Lingren had a natural expression.

This method of making steel......

"It's a good method, but I'm afraid my hair will be gray when I find it." I took the opportunity to take revenge on the anger I had received before.

Shi Lingren crossed his hands and snorted.

"However, there is always a value in trying. In addition, in order to sort out the electronic materials in the library last year, due to the shortage of manpower, the school found several students to volunteer in the psychological counseling room. ”

"That is, you are one of them." The well-organized archives in the library actually have the credit of this guy.

"That's right. So I know that the password setting method of those computer novices is nothing more than a few people's birthdays or anniversaries. ”

"Do you think it's possible that the password hasn't changed since then?"

Shi Lingren didn't say a word, and pulled up a photo from his phone.

Suddenly, he found what he needed: a certain file.

Shi Ling flipped through the pages of the book, which recorded in detail all aspects of the centennial celebration.

After turning about ten pages, Shi Ling found the date of the school's anniversary.

Shi Ling casually knocked a few numbers and pressed the key.

The screen is displayed. It seems that this time it was a win.

"The security system of this school is really dumbfounded."

I said with a sigh. "You are also very lucky to be able to find lucky numbers in this vast sea of numbers by using the local method of steelmaking."

It's rare that Shi Ling didn't reply this time. He seems to be calm, but his heart must be turbulent.

"We're all wrong, look at this." Shi Ling bent down to pick up something, and there was a sound in his ears like the grinding of metal like coins colliding with each other.

"What's that?"

Shi Lingren took a picture of it with his mobile phone and wanted me to take a closer look.

It was a chain that hung down to the ground, and an old digital lock.

"There are traces of cutting, apparently someone has picked this lock, and replaced it with its own digital lock, probably no matter what number is entered, it will open. Anyway, no one will come to check, it's not worth the effort! ”

I fell into a fog and looked at Shilingren.

"The door to the hallway is open—an intruder has been the first to get there! Generally speaking, people can't get there. ”

The stone man put the chain at his feet and pushed the door in front of him.

I felt a chill down my spine. According to him, there are other people in this building besides us...... Creature.

"Wait a minute."

I couldn't help but call out to Shiling.

Before the shout could reach Shi Ling's ears, I heard a rusty metal grinding sound. The door opened.
