Chapter Seventy-Two: The Aftermath
……
After Su Bai and Shen Suxian went out of the basement, they saw that the entire ruins had returned to the true appearance he had seen at the beginning, and the illusion that was originally as big as a gymnasium had disappeared.
Lin Wanqin was shedding tears with red eyes at this time, while carefully bandaging Shen Suxian's wounds.
I can't see that they are still very well prepared when they come out, and there are some emergency medical supplies in the bag in addition to mysterious items, and they seem to have studied and will use them.
"Sister Su Xian, I'm sorry...... It's all because I'm so useless, and instead of helping, I'm adding to the mess, and you're so badly injured......"
"It's fine."
Shen Suxian smiled faintly, touched her hair with her left hand and comforted her.
"It's not the first time...... This injury is nothing compared to life......"
It's a blessing to be alive. Although I don't know why the puppet doll didn't kill them, it was indeed a thread of life just now, and death was close at hand.
Su Bai glanced at the time on his phone.
"It's already 6 o'clock in the morning, according to the plan, the rescue team should have arrived, and we can get out safely if we hold on a little longer."
He still had some strength left, and he got up and looked at the changes in the ruins here.
There was not much difference from what I saw when I first came down to the first floor, except that everything had rotted, there was no statue of the so-called goddess of Kannon on the ceiling, and the shrine hanging on the wall had been completely destroyed, except for a metal knob switch that was exposed.
He remembered something, and went to the room to find the display case from before.
Counting up the fourth floor, he saw the beautiful head again.
Only this time, the human head seemed to be scorched, and most of the head was melted, leaving only an empty skull and half of the face that was completely blackened.
"Sure enough, this thing has something to do with that puppet......"
It's just that as the puppet doll was devoured, this thing was also destroyed.
……
The rescue team officially opened the passage at about 8 o'clock in the morning.
When a ray of warm sunlight shone in, the three people who had been waiting on the second floor all breathed a sigh of relief.
At least make sure you can get out alive.
After going out, I saw Lin Wanqin and Shen Suxian who came out for the second time, and everyone looked like they had seen a ghost, looking at each other.
I almost thought that I was having some hallucinations because I was insane because I stayed up late.
It wasn't until Shen Suxian briefly told Professor Zhang what had happened, that his expression changed, and he hurriedly asked everyone to go back to find the whereabouts of the dummies that came out yesterday.
Soon, in an unused house in the village, they found traces of the escaped puppets.
Su Bai also went with him, and after opening the door, the first thing was the strong smell of blood, which made people nauseous and dizzy.
Putting on masks and eye patches, several people cautiously walked into the house, and were soon shocked by the bloody scene in the house, and after a while, two people with weak psychological tolerance ran out and vomited wildly.
Even the well-informed Su Bai had a somewhat ugly face.
It wasn't until the afternoon that a professional forensic doctor came to see the results.
"The victim was brutally cut off limbs and heads by the murderer, and they were swapped and spliced together, and it is suspected that he has a strong penchant for torture and killing, which is very dangerous!"
“…… We counted the body fragments, and there were four people killed, four men and one woman, four of whom were fellow researchers, and one of whom was a woman from the village, who was supposed to be the wife of the first missing person. ”
"Unfortunately, Professor Zhang, your student Guang Xuelin is among the people who were killed." The medical examiner regretted.
"I see."
Professor Zhang's face was a little unpleasant, after all, although Guang Xuelin's heart was not very good, he was also a student he cultivated. This is suddenly gone, and there is inevitably a gap in my heart.
After that, the Union police had already arrived, and it was impossible not to pay attention to such a serious homicide.
It's just that when they heard that the murderers were five puppet dummies, they put on a look of "Are you an idiot for us?"
It wasn't until Shen Suxian negotiated with them in secret that they somewhat understood that there might be mysterious events involved, so they didn't ask any more.
Anyway, these things are not something that ordinary little policemen can manage.
As for the remaining five puppet dummies, all gathered in the corners of this bloody room when they were found, they had all lost their vitality and were piled up in a haphazard manner.
It seems that after the puppet dolls were caught, they also "died" together.
But for the sake of safety, Shen Suxian still called a car, pasted these things on talisman paper one by one, and carried them into the car and took them away.
for follow-up studies.
Su Bai asked curiously: "If you catch ghosts, will you dissect them?" ”
Shen Suxian had already regained his usual gentle attitude at this time, and he was like two people under the ruins.
"Don't talk about us like those Frankensteins," she laughs. If just dissecting a few ghosts could solve these mysterious events, then there wouldn't be so many people dying at the hands of ghosts every day in the world. ”
Subsequently, although she kept insisting that it didn't matter, she was still sent to the ambulance by the doctors and nurses who rushed together, especially the bloody and almost comminuted fracture of her right hand, which was really shocking.
But before getting into the car, she left him a reassurance.
"Don't worry, you have made a lot of credit this time, and when I go back, I will write a special report for this time, and you will definitely get the reward you deserve."
Su Bai looked at the direction the ambulance was far away and pondered for a long time in his heart.
"Sister Su Xian is right, this time it can almost be said that you discovered the secret of the underground and saved the two of us, even if the company doesn't send this credit, we will keep it in mind! Because you're my savior! ”
Lin Wanqin's voice beside her sounded.
Su Bai looked back at her suspiciously.
"Look at what I'm doing, I'll tell you the truth!" She snapped her fingers a little embarrassed, for fear that he would see a little bit of her carefulness.
Su Bai didn't want to be crooked, but just wondered: "Aren't you with her?" Why didn't you go with her? ”
Lin Wanqin snorted lightly: "Sister Su Xian wants to go back to the company for treatment, of course, she has to go one step earlier." Our company is also responsible for the ruins here, so someone must be watching here. You want to drive me away so much! ”
"Not really. Feel free to do so, I'll go to the ruins and have a look. ”
Su Bai didn't quite understand the temper of these little girls, so he just smiled and turned around and walked to Professor Zhang's side.
Lin Wanqin looked at his back stupidly, and she didn't have the courage to shout when she just asked him to eat with him.
"Why are you leaving......"
She was a little discouraged.
"I should thank him for saving his life...... I shouldn't be too much to eat......"
"But I only rejected his confession once before, what if he is still angry......
The mood of suffering from gains and losses made her beautiful eyebrows almost twist together, and she felt that she had not been so worried about encountering ghosts before.
She just regretted it a little now, and she couldn't wait to go back to the past immediately and strangle herself who blurted out the words of refusal at that time, so she wouldn't be so entangled now.
"At least, at least a little leeway...... Don't say it so absolutely......" She knocked her head and sighed, "Lin Wanqin, why are you so stupid......"
