We are not unfamiliar with this small forest, Jiang Jun and I gave money and told the driver to wait for us, it is not easy to go back to such a remote place. We walked through the grove to the gate of the abandoned factory, which was the same as before, and even in broad daylight, it looked eerie.

The gate of the abandoned factory is open, it is dark inside, the temperature in the coastal city in autumn is not high, the autumn wind is whining, and the sun shines on us, but looking at the gate of the abandoned factory, we do not feel warm, but feel that the sun is more gloomy and cold. We had expected it to be dark inside the factory, so we brought flashlights in advance.

Outside the abandoned factory, Jiang Jun looked at a vacant lot and sighed with emotion. It was there that Jiang Jun blocked the big stone that Sun Zaiyun threw for me, and it was also from that time that I began to understand Jiang Jun more deeply, if it wasn't for that time, with my character, I wouldn't be willing to bring other people by my side.

Facts have proved that Jiang Jun has helped me a lot, and I have completely regarded him as my own. I vaguely remembered what Wang Xin had told me that Jiang Jun would be of great help to me by my side. Wang Xin is one of the few people I can't see through, he is always so calm and light-hearted, as if nothing can cause his emotions to wave.

Jiang Jun and I walked into the gate of the abandoned factory, the last time we came here was because the abandoned factory was involved in Zhou Xiaoruo's case, this time we had enough time to observe every corner of the abandoned factory. As soon as we walked in, the intermittent sound of dripping water came to our ears.

The temperature in the abandoned factory was much cooler than in the sweltering summer months, and it took only a few steps to get inside before the water flooded our shoes. Feeling the coldness of the soles of my feet, I couldn't help but feel a tingling in my scalp, and I remembered Xu Yi's description of the factory in her memory, and I also remembered my own dream.

The abandoned factory is as familiar as ever, as if I had been here a long time ago. The beam of the flashlight stretched far away, and through the last investigation by following the police, under the light of so many flashlights, I knew that this abandoned factory was not as big as I imagined.

It's just that people are in the dark, and they always feel that they can't see the edge. As we went deeper, the water on the ground became higher and higher, and the smell became heavier and stronger. The water was running over our calves, and there was a lot of garbage floating on the ground, even dead mice, and I kept going deeper and deeper into it, not caring about getting dirty.

Slowly, the sunlight outside the gate stopped coming in, and all we had left for light was the two flashlights in our hands. There were a lot of scrapped cabinets piled up in the corner of the abandoned factory, and I pulled the key out of my pocket to try my luck. But when I got closer, I realized that the drawers on the cabinet were open.

The locks on it had also been picked open, the drawers were empty, and some of the cabinets had been knocked over on the ground. But when you open the door of a drawer or cabinet, there's nothing but a pile of dirty, smelly water.

After a busy period of work, Jiang Jun and I were sweating all over, and the cold air became stuffy, Jiang Jun and I did not give up, and went deep to investigate the high scrap cabinets that had been piled up. I also went to the wall of the factory to see, we wanted to take off the wooden planks nailed to the window, but those wooden planks had been nailed down, and for a while, we had no way to remove them, so Jiang Jun and I had no choice but to give up and continue to move forward in the dark.

The ground was slippery, and Jiang Jun and I walked cautiously, but despite this, we fell into the dirty water several times. As I walked, I thought carefully that after the factory closed, because of the remote location, the government did not take care of the land, so the wooden planks nailed to the doors and windows must not have been nailed by the government.

The only possibility is that after the factory closes, the employees of the factory work together to seal the abandoned factory, but this will definitely take a lot of energy and effort. It stands to reason that a factory that has closed down, why should the people in the factory spend so much energy to do this?

Another possibility is that someone later came to nail all the doors and windows of the abandoned factory, but what did he want to do by creating such a dark and eerie atmosphere?

Without much evidence, I can't be sure which one might be right, but I can be sure that no one would do it because they were idle, they must have done it for some secret or for some other purpose.

We slowed down because under the beam of the flashlight, we saw more mountains of dilapidated tables, chairs and cabinets piled up and a lot of old machines used for processing. Decades later, those machines have become a pile of broken copper and iron, and when we touch them, our palms are stained with a lot of rust.

I felt a strange feeling in my heart, but in the darkness, I couldn't tell what that weird feeling was going on.

"Flip through the cabinets one by one." Jiang Jun said to me.

I nodded, the police can't call for us for no reason, we have to rely on ourselves. For an hour, we were crawling through the pile of dilapidated tables and chairs, and disappointment haunted me, because there was still nothing in the drawers of these tables, chairs, and cabinets.

The drawer was very dirty, and several times Jiang Jun and I opened the drawer, and a bunch of cockroaches came out.

We were sweating profusely, and Jiang Jun asked me what to do, and we had been in the abandoned factory for almost two hours, but we had found nothing. Further inside was the end of the abandoned factory, where was the back door of the factory, which, like the window, had been nailed shut and blocked with a large pile of scrap metal.

This is what I found when I came to the abandoned factory last time, I didn't want to give up, I continued to go deeper inside, and after a few steps, I stopped, and I finally thought of where the strange place was!

"Professor Li, what's wrong?" Jiang Jun hit the flashlight on me and asked.

"We've been tossing for so long, whether it's a broken table or a scrapped cabinet, all the locks on it have been picked open and taken away." As soon as I reminded him, Jiang Jun also reacted.

We rummaged through all the corners, and indeed, we couldn't find a single lock, leaving only a small hole in the drawer, which was supposed to be a lock. Those locks are worthless, the factory cannot pry all the locks away for the sake of saving, and those discarded tables, chairs, cabinets, and old machines can be sold for a lot of money if they are sold as rags.

But the people in the factory didn't do that, the factory was only open for three months, and it closed down suddenly, and the people in the factory left suddenly. They didn't take away so many valuable parts processing machines, so it was even more impossible to pick all the worthless locks before leaving.

I took out the set of keys left by Sun Xiang again, and a thought arose in my heart, could it be that those keys were matched with the locks that were originally installed in those drawers? If so, where were those locks taken away?

I couldn't figure it out, so I didn't think about it for the time being, and continued to walk inside with Jiang Jun.

Soon, we reached the end of the abandoned factory.

In my dreams, I seem to have been here, it was a wall, and in front of the wall, there were many corpses. Some of them had their heads gone, some of their limbs had their limbs amputated, and some of their bodies had their bodies cut off at their waists, and their blood and internal organs were floating on the stagnant water. There was a guy who was chasing me all the time, and I couldn't see him clearly, but he was getting closer and closer to me, and with each step I got closer, my heart beat a little faster.

I jerked my head because I felt as if someone was behind me and Jiang Jun!

The flashlight lit up the picture in front of my eyes, and there was nothing. Jiang Jun asked me blankly what was wrong, whether it was sight or hearing, or indefinite intuition, Jiang Jun was much more sensitive than me, I looked around carefully, and finally determined that I was wrong.

I took a deep breath, and the stench almost smoky me. We surveyed the last pile of dilapidated tables and chairs, and I don't know how long it had been, but when we stopped our movements out of breath, we still found nothing.

This time we went deep into the abandoned factory, and we refused to let go of any corner, but I still didn't find a clue. Just as we were about to turn around and leave, Jiang Jun's flashlight hit a corner, where a white shirt floated......
