Chapter 248: The Mansion

Because it is planted, the surrounding coniferous forests are almost identical, and the trees grow so luxuriantly that they almost directly cover the sky.

It's almost early in the morning, and the lighting conditions around you are very poor, so it's especially easy to get lost when walking in such a place.

At that moment, a familiar feeling suddenly spread throughout my body, and I suddenly remembered that I had entered a similar wood, and almost lost my life.

The coniferous forest we are in now is almost exactly the same as the bamboo forest I strayed into when I was in Heijin City!

The taiga, like those bamboos, also presents a hexagonal arrangement, which is the principle of the beehive maze!

Because the hexagonal shape is close to the circle, it is especially easy for people to have the illusion that it is difficult to distinguish the correct direction.

In addition, most people's legs are not the same length, if you don't simulate the picture in your mind in advance, even if you walk straight forward, you will unconsciously circle around it, giving the illusion of a ghost hitting a wall!

The same forest, the same construction principle, it is also easy for people to get lost in it, and the only difference is that the coniferous forest where they are now is more than a star and a half more complete than the bamboo forest in Heijin City.

Who designed this forest of death? What is their purpose? Could it be that the bamboo forest that appeared in Heijin City also has something to do with the Yu family?

If this is the case, it will be even more difficult for Yu Tianlong's suspicion to be cleared away! vaguely remembers that Xu Fugui, who is gold-rimmed glasses, has already applied to the higher authorities to re-investigate the black gold case a long time ago.

If his side can go smoothly, with the degree of bad influence of the black gold case, I am sure enough to list Yu Tianlong as a criminal suspect and then arrest him. However, it all had to be based on the fact that I was able to find the relevant evidence!

Lu Yuan glanced at me, seemed to understand something, lowered his voice and said, "What? I've ever seen a place like this! ”

"Yes, I almost died here last time!"

"With the lesson of the last time, this time, can you find a way out?"

"I haven't used my brain for too long, I guess it's a little rusty, try it. Let's see if we can find out where the Western-style restaurant is! ”

If I guessed correctly, the Western-style mansion where No. 37 L Mansion is located should be in the middle of this coniferous forest, because it is the most hidden place, whether you want to walk in or out, it is not easy, of course, this difficulty is only for others except the Yu family.

I still clearly remember the direction from which I entered the taiga before, with that point as the origin, and then expanded outward in order, if the orientation simulation is not wrong, the place where Lu Yuan and I are now is in the third hexagon that we enter at the entrance, and after that, slightly deflect 30 degrees to the right, you can smoothly enter the fourth hexagonal block.

Just in case, I took my saber and left marks on the surrounding trees in advance, just like I did last time in the bamboo forest, so as to prevent myself from getting lost in this man-made labyrinth because of the confusion of my memory when updating the location information.

In this way, I took Lu Yuan with me and gradually went deep into the hinterland of the taiga.

I have to say that the area of this coniferous forest is amazingly large, and it is estimated that there will be three to four times the bamboo forest in Heijin City, as far as the area I have walked through, which shows that Yu Tianlong has invested a lot of money in this plantation!

The night wind gusted, and I walked forward for a while, and finally I saw some light in the dense trees.

It's like a cruise ship lost in the sea and finally seeing the lights of the tower.

With the guidance of this light, Lu Yuan and I were all cheered up.

In this way, there is no need to update the location information in fact, and you can arrive by following the light, which can finally give my brain a vacation.

After walking forward for a while, suddenly, a magnificent mansion appeared in front of me.

The four-storey building is surrounded by a fence and a small garden with fountains and sculptures, making it look like a castle in a Grimm's fairy tale.

Although the exterior of the Western-style building has been reinforced and painted, it still retains the architectural style of the last century, with the exterior walls clad in Jinshan stone and the entrance to the Greek Doric colonnade. Looking at the majestic shore, it swept away the pattern of the mid-Western style that was close to the courtyard-style building.

This combination of European and Chinese styles makes it look unique.

In the file that Lao Yan gave me, No. 37 L Mansion and its surroundings are not like this. If this is really the location it once was, the only explanation is that Yu Tianlong spent a lot of money to completely overturn and rebuild the entire area, and finally made it look like this, as for the purpose of doing so, it is still unknown.

The lights on the outer floor of the mansion are still on, and it seems that there should be a lot of people gathered inside, thinking about it, it is only a day or two before the final deadline for the invitation letter, and it is estimated that most of the invited leaders in the criminal investigation field have already arrived at this place.

Such a large mansion is expected to be able to accommodate thousands of people, but Yu Tianlong has only sent out more than 20 invitations in total, so I don't understand the real purpose of that guy anymore.

The main entrance was on the opposite side of us, and we didn't know what was going on there, because there was a whole Western-style building between them.

After discussion, it was decided to go in from behind the wall, anyway, Lu Yuan and I both carried the invitation letter with us, and when we went in, in front of so many leaders in the criminal investigation world, Yu Tianlong should be embarrassed to kick us out.

Climbing over the fence and walking all the way to the door of the Western-style Pavilion, Lu Yuan took a deep breath and finally stepped forward and knocked on the door.

The carved wooden gate is as tall as the two of us, and the two stone lions on the side are also magnificent. If you don't know in advance, it's hard to associate this magnificent mansion in front of you with the one that killed someone forty or fifty years ago.

Lu Yuan knocked for a long time, but there was no movement on the other side of the door, and the anxious guy almost kicked the door directly.

"Your sister, use your brains, such a big foreign pavilion, you slap your claws, and the people inside can't hear it!" I gave him a blank look, walked straight up, and rang the red doorbell on the side of the gate.

The moment you press the button, you can obviously feel a strong sense of vibration, it is estimated that the red bell is connected to a room in the Western-style pavilion, and after pressing it twice, the other side of the door, finally heard the sound of footsteps.

A moment later, as the door slowly opened, the smell of rosewood greeted me, and in an instant, I saw a squire in a tuxedo and tie, quite European gentleman, standing in front of us.

The gentleman looks like he should be forty or fifty years old, probably the person in charge or the receptionist of this invitation, with a trace of good air between his eyebrows, it is estimated that he was also a handsome guy when he was young, the kind that can fascinate countless girls.

After looking at me and Lu Yuan, the gentleman first frowned slightly, then bowed deeply, and said respectfully: "Hello two gentlemen, I am the housekeeper here, may I ask the two, but I received an invitation letter from my master, so I came to investigate the strange case that happened at No. 37 L House?" ”

"Exactly!"

"Can you let me verify the invitation you have?" Because the case is very important, if it is an idle person, I don't dare to put it in the foreign pavilion! ”

The housekeeper's attitude was quite polite, since he was ordered to do things, there was no need for Lu Yuan and I to embarrass him. After that, he handed over the invitation letter in his hand and handed it to him.

After getting the invitation, the housekeeper put on reading glasses, looked at it carefully, and after a while, breathed a sigh of relief, put the invitation away, and then gave way and made a gesture of please:

"First of all, I would like to thank you both for being invited to participate in this event. A total of 25 invitations were sent out, and the two of you were positioned as 20 and 21 in the order of entry, so please remember your entry number. ”

"Admission number, is this important?" Looking at the two gold-inlaid number plates handed over by the housekeeper, Lu Yuan looked a little confused.

Compared to him, I seem to be much more witty, anyway, with the attributes of a local tyrant like the Yu family, the number plate given must be inlaid with real gold. Now that the global gold price is rising, it is estimated that after going out, it will be able to exchange for living expenses and the like.

Seeing that I accepted the number plate, the housekeeper nodded with satisfaction, and then continued to speak: "In the next month, please live in this mansion and participate in the investigation of the case, during this period, our Yu family will provide you with all the necessities of life, including accommodation, and will try our best to meet your requirements."

If you agree, please hand over your phone and enter, if you don't, please leave now. There will be a special person outside the courtyard, so you won't get lost in the forest! ”

The butler's words were tepid, but he gave people an irresistible sense of majesty.

Leaving here, of course impossible! Lu Yuan and I both came here with our own goals, and if we don't achieve our goals, we won't leave easily.

Besides, I'm almost sure that since the Yu family can build such a large artificial forest, they will definitely not lack the money to buy a signal shielding car.

The mobile phone is completely an ornament here, at most it is used to play and watch and the like, and it has almost no effect.

Lu Yuan and I didn't even think about it, so we happily handed over our mobile phones and other communication tools.

After confirming, the butler nodded with satisfaction, and finally completely moved out of the way and welcomed us in.

As the door slowly closed, a bad feeling gradually came to my heart. I can't tell what's wrong, but now that I'm here, I'll have to accept the status quo and adapt to the situation.

The butler led the way in front of us, and we followed the red carpet in the direction of the main hall.

Unconsciously, there was a sound of talking in front of him, the voice was unusually noisy, and it seemed that many people had gathered in the place in front of him.

If I guessed correctly, those people should have come for the case of No. 37 L House.
