The paper money was evenly dispersed one by one, and all of them were suspended in the air upright, burning brightly. Originally, it was supposed that this paper money was a flammable substance, and it would soon burn out when ignited. But these I threw out not only miraculously spontaneously combusted, but also showed no signs of burning out.

The method of the designer of the dark banknote that I revealed made Qin Yu's eyes open suddenly. As for the other two policemen Lao Zhao and Huzi, who retired from the army and changed careers, they were even more dumbfounded, and they couldn't come back to their senses for a long time.

"Don't be stunned, two police brothers, I can only let these suspended paper money burn for less than two minutes, hurry up and take the opportunity to go into the toilet to see Brother Zhang." Later, when the paper money is extinguished, it will be troublesome. Although I was proud, I also knew the priorities, and with a finger, the suspended fire formed by the burning of the paper money slowly floated in through the toilet door and the small window above, illuminating the toilet entirely. That way, if there's something lurking in the shadows, we won't be caught off guard.

Cheering up, we cautiously entered the public toilet through the door. The inside is now bright, almost unobstructed.

I have come to the toilet several times during the day on weekdays, the area is not large, the structure is very simple, and the whole is arranged vertically. As soon as you enter the doorway, you will see a row of large squatting positions on the left-hand side and a long urinal on the right-hand side. Naturally, there is nothing to say about the urinal, but this large squatting position, because each one is separated by a cement wall about one meter and a half high, so it is impossible to see the innermost squatting positions from this position at the door.

Now, the places we can see clearly at a glance are empty, and there is no shadow of Zhang Long at all!

So where did Zhang Long go? Just now he clearly said that he was going to go to the toilet at the end of this alley, why did he disappear all of a sudden?

The four of us looked at each other, and our expressions became solemn. The pieces of paper money floated above my head, glowing with fire and illuminating the toilet. It is precisely because of this that Lao Zhao and Huzi no longer treat me and Qin Yu as children, but put them in an equal position.

"Go to the squatting positions on the other side and see if Zhang Long will be there?" Huzi whispered to Lao Zhao, and Lao Zhao nodded. So I followed Lao Zhao and Huzi and clenched the guns in their hands, and Qin Yu and I followed behind them, and cautiously walked towards the far end of the toilet, and at the same time, my heart was in my throat.

But when we walked over and saw the scene on the other side of the toilet, we were completely stunned. Because it's empty, too, there's not a single person!

What about Zhang Long? Could it be that he disappeared completely and inexplicably?

We saw him walk into this alley. At the end of this alley is this public toilet, and beyond that is a farmland, and at the end of the farmland is a big river that runs around the town. If Zhang Long came to the toilet, then there was no reason not to go to the toilet, and he didn't say hello to us, but went straight to the dark farmland!

It's strange to think that a big living person, and a veteran with a gun and an electric batons, just disappeared without a trace right under our noses.

"Turn on the flashlights again, these paper money are going out!" I shouted nervously to remind everyone to pay attention, and I turned on the flashlight first.

The moment we all turned on the flashlights, the paper money suspended in the air all went out with a pop, turning into a cloud of black ash and falling down.

Darkness and dead silence were restored all around, except for the flashlight in our hands shining five straight beams.

"Since there is no Zhang Long in this toilet, let's go out and find it, we have to see people in life, and we have to see corpses in death!" Lao Zhao said through some gritted teeth. Obviously, Zhang Long's inexplicable disappearance made him, the temporary team leader, feel unacceptable, and he must find it.

Qin Yu and I naturally agreed. Although we need to patrol the core street area of these two river towns, but now that a teammate has disappeared inexplicably, and there is no dead or dead person, we can't just leave him alone!

"I'm a local, so I'm familiar with this place, and when you go out of the public toilets, it's a farmland. Is it possible that Brother Zhang Long thought that the inside of this toilet was too dirty and smelly, so he went to the farmland outside to? "I pretended to be light-hearted, not wanting to make the atmosphere too heavy.

Qin Yu snorted, probably thinking that I was a little vulgar again. But Lao Zhao and Huzi's eyes lit up, and said that it was possible, so let's go out and find out.

Just as we were about to turn around and walk out, Qin Yu's flashlight next to me suddenly shook towards the wall above the row of large squatting positions, and shouted: "What's there!" ”

His roar made my scalp tingle, and I was startled at the time. However, Lao Zhao and Huzi are worthy of being veterans, and their movements are very agile. As soon as Qin Yu roared, the two of them immediately pulled out their guns and aimed them at the location where Qin Yu's flashlight shone through.

About two meters above this row of squatting positions, there are some small windows on the walls, dug out to vent the stench of the toilets. But they are all very high above the ground, and they are very small, and it is basically impossible for an adult to get out of this small hole......

A few of our flashlights shone through a row of small holes in the wall, and we didn't find anything suspicious.

"Qin Yu, could it be that you are a little nervous and misunderstood?" I looked at Qin Yu with a puzzled expression.

He sneered: "I have been on missions with my master since I was ten years old, and I have seen more demons and monsters than you have walked, so you will be nervous and panicked about such a small thing?" Something must have been shaking outside that window. ”

Lao Zhao glanced at the window a few times and said, "In that case, then let's go out behind this toilet to see if there is anyone doing ghosts!" ”

After saying that, the four of us quickly walked towards the door of the toilet, ready to pass through the surrounding farmland. When we got out of the toilet and walked behind the toilet on the rugged path of the farmland full of crops, my heart suddenly moved, and something suddenly occurred to me!

That's behind this public toilet, there is a locust tree!

I stumbled upon it three years ago when I was playing with a group of kids from the town in a riverside farm. I remember some people joking that it wasn't the "fertilizer" in the toilet that nourished the tree. The locust tree was not big, almost as thick as an adult's calf, and it was not too tall. And a tree is nothing unusual for a ten-year-old, so I didn't pay attention to it at all.

At that time, in such a dark and dead situation, with a hint of weird atmosphere, I suddenly thought of what Qin Ren said in the office of the police station during the day today.

He said that the reason why he paid so much attention to the fact that more than 20 townspeople in Lianghe Town had hanged themselves from trees was because in many small towns in Sichuan, there had been a large number of residents hanging themselves from locust trees. It seems that the locust tree attribute is extremely yin, and it is "wood and ghosts" when it is disassembled, which can be described as a ghost in the tree, a natural yin and evil thing, so there are some speculations that demons are convenient to use to do bad things.

And behind this public toilet, there is a locust tree!

Thinking of this, a chill suddenly crept up on my back like a poisonous snake, and I couldn't help but get goosebumps, and my breathing became short. I swallowed my saliva and whispered, "The two police brothers, and Qin Yu, pay attention." There may be quirky ahead! I just remembered that there is a locust tree behind this toilet......"
