Facing the doubts of the old policeman who knew him, Zhang Muzi sighed and replied: "Uncle Wu, this proves that I did encounter 'dirty things', so I lost dozens of catties of meat all of a sudden." ”

"It's so possible, how can there be a ghost in the world who can make people lose weight. With such a grotesque explanation, Wu Tianren naturally said with a suspicious expression.

In desperation, Zhang Muzi thought about it carefully and said, "Okay Uncle Wu, you just said that you met me when you were patrolling at noon yesterday, right, I'll talk about the process of meeting."

At that time, you were riding a bicycle and were about to go back to the police station for lunch, and you bought 'Chen Ji' mochi as a snack for lunch, and I went to the town post office to pick up the package, and you also invited me to eat two pieces of red bean mochi, right?"

"You, you are really Muzi," Wu Tianren was taken aback when he heard this, looked at Zhang Muzi and said dumbfounded: "I really encountered a 'dirty thing' that can make people lose dozens of catties of fat at once!"

This is also too evil, it's because of you fat boy, if you change to a thin one, it won't become a 'human'. ”

"Uncle Wu, it doesn't matter if I'm fat or thin now," Seeing that the old policeman finally believed in himself, Zhang Muzi breathed a sigh of relief and said: "The important thing is that more than 20 people encountered the attack of 'dirty things' during the expedition and disappeared. ”

The worst result came, Wu Tianren immediately re-realized the severity of the situation, Ren has been a policeman for half his life, and has experienced hundreds of large and small cases, and his heart is also shocked, and he nodded hurriedly: "This is a big case, and the police station in the town can't handle it anyway."

At least it must be handed over to the sub-bureau for criminal, no, I'm afraid that at least the criminal police brigade of the Yuanbei City Bureau will be dispatched, and I will notify 'Shangfeng' immediately. He hurriedly took off the police communicator stuck on his shoulder.

"Director, this kind of strange thing, if you report it to the sub-bureau without evidence, no one will believe it. "Standing behind the old policeman, a taller than his peers, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, his facial features are still a little immature, he should only be in his twenties, a tall young man who has just graduated from the police academy, and when he saw that the chief did not follow the 'procedure' and was in a hurry to report the case, he hurriedly reminded in a low voice.

"What if you don't believe it, I've been a policeman for 27 years, and the heads of the sub-bureaus are all my juniors, and if you don't believe it, they won't send people. Wu Tianren was stunned for a moment, and said in a deep voice: More than 20 people are missing, what a big case this is.

It is difficult for everyone in our jurisdiction to escape responsibility, and if there is any further delay, I, the director, will have to resign, and you will not be able to escape the punishment of 'reprimand'. ”

"But even if you insist on sending someone from the sub-bureau, it can only be an ordinary patrol officer, and you will never directly dispatch a large-scale search team," the young policeman looked at the commander and said without giving in: "When the time comes, I am afraid that more time will be wasted in the re-investigation, and our responsibility will be greater at that time." ”

"Hmm..."Wu Tianren was stunned for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Then what do you say you should do?"

"Didn't Muzi say that they were camping by the big lake outside the town, and at night they 'pulled' the group to explore the abandoned mine pit and encountered the 'dirty things'," the young policeman said without hesitation: "I think we should first register all the students who escaped, and then divide into two routes, all the way to the lake to see if we can find more witnesses."

On the other hand, make a detailed record of each student who escaped, and when you have this written evidence, email it to the prefect on duty at the substation, and then explain that it is an emergency of 100,000 urgent..."

"Okay, you are worthy of being a top student who graduated from the 'Wontai Police University', so I will do as you say. Wu Tianren's eyes lit up, interrupted his subordinates' words, and then looked at Zhang Muzi and said hurriedly: "Muzi, you first take a car with me to the lake, and tell me carefully about the process of the case on the way."

Ah Bin, Xiao Wu, the two of you stayed while calling a taxi, and at the same time recorded the number of these classmates at the station, and telegraphed it to me later.

Then immediately take these students directly back to the institute to record their statements, and they will be done within half an hour. ”

"Yes. Several policemen heard the commander's order and agreed in unison, and at the same time, Zhang Muzi looked around, first looked at the two dead friends beside him, and said with a forced smile, "Tuba, Meili, then I'll go with Uncle Wu first, and I'll meet later." ”；

After that, he waved his hand to the surviving girls around him, "The police are here, everyone is relieved, goodbye." Without waiting for everyone to respond, he strode off the waiting station and got into the police car.

A few seconds later, the police lights on the roof of the black-and-white car lit up brightly again, accompanied by a piercing 'woo...' whistle, carrying Zhang Muzi and Wu Tianren towards Hubo outside Tiangong Town.

On the way, Zhang Muzi looked at the ever-changing night scene outside the window, and told Wu Tianren all the things that had happened in the past two days except for the nightmares he had in the muddy nightmares, and finally bowed his head and said dejectedly: "... They must go to the abandoned mine to explore, and I can't stop it.

If I had known that, I shouldn't have gone to the tuba yesterday, but I would have been punished and went home, hey, it's too late to say anything now.

I really don't understand why so many people don't believe in evil and have to 'hit ghosts', and as a result, things have become like this. ”

"It's not all young and vigorous, playful and curious," Seeing Zhang Muzi's gloomy appearance, Wu Tianren also had fire in his heart but couldn't send it out, so he could only admit that he was unlucky and said: "Don't blame yourself too much, Muzi, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid those people in the bus shelter wouldn't be able to escape."

To be honest, although I have heard that you also happened to 'start a fight' in the palace temple to ward off evil spirits, I really didn't expect that there was such a powerful spell...", while the two were talking, the police car had already come to the lake.

It was late at night, and the moonlight reflected in the lake and the sparkling waves of the breeze in the open field gave people an unusually quiet beauty.

The lights had already been lit in a row of camping huts by the lake, and the dozen or so tents far away from the shore were also flickering with candlelight, and it could be seen that most of the spring travelers who had been playing for a day were ready to rest.

Disturbed by the sound of a mournful siren tearing through the night sky, they were soon all back on their feet.

Opening the car door and getting out of the car, picking up the cordless loudspeaker that is standard on the police car, Wu Tianren's somewhat gloomy face reflected by the shining police lights tensed, and looked at the stunned crowd, "Ladies and gentlemen, I am Wu Tianren, the 'police officer' of the Tiangong Town Police Station of the New Taipei Branch of the Yuanbei Police Station.

I just received the alarm, more than 30 people who were exploring the abandoned mine outside the town had an accident, if you include your relatives and friends, please come and register with me immediately. ”

The old policeman's words echoed in the night sky, and immediately caused a panicked and anxious question, "Officer, my son said a few hours ago that he was going on an expedition with a new friend, I don't know if he went to the abandoned mine you talked about, where happened to him?";

"Officer Wu, my cousin and his friend disappeared just after dinner, and their mobile phones can't get through, Bacheng went on an adventure, what happened to them?";

"Officer, a few of my classmates went on an expedition to an abandoned mine outside the town, and I didn't go with them because I had a fever, what's wrong with them now?".

"Please calm down," Seeing that the scene was too chaotic and gradually about to get out of control, Wu Tianren, who has rich police experience, raised his voice, and lowered everyone's voices through a loudspeaker, shouting: "We police don't know much about the specific situation in the abandoned mine, we only know that there is danger."

Now the only thing you can do for your relatives and friends who go there is to register their identity information to me so that the search and rescue can be carried out.

Okay, now please consciously line up and start with the people closest to me to register one by one. ”

Hearing the old policeman's orderly arrangement, the crowd by the lake, although still gloomy, quieted down, which made the subsequent registration work unusually smooth.

About half an hour later, the list of explorers had been decided, and those who knew that their relatives and friends had been rescued by the lake looked like they were surprised, while the relatives and friends of the people who had always been there were gradually commotions.

Seeing this scene, Wu Tianren, who had finished the registration, had no intention of paying more attention, and muttered to himself, "Twenty-three people, a total of twenty-three people are missing, if something happens to them, it will be a shocking case...", put the police notebook back in his pocket, got into the police car, and rushed to the town, followed by a long car line.

Along the way, the old policeman who calmed down from the initial shock thought that there was such a case in the jurisdiction, although it was a bizarre and unwarranted disaster, but it was enough to make himself unable to turn over for eternity, not to mention being promoted to a senior police officer before retirement, even if it was a safe retirement, it may have become a luxury, and his mood unconsciously became heavier and heavier.

Could it be that after a lifetime of hard work, he left his job in such a dishonorable manner, and the more he pondered it, the more unwilling he felt, and suddenly a bold idea came to his heart, making his eyes light up.

However, thinking of the risks that he needed to take to do so, Wu Tianren couldn't help but hesitate again, and just as he hesitated, the police car had already driven into Tiangong Town.

There are few pedestrians on the streets of remote villages and towns late at night, although the energy-saving street lights are on, the light is very insufficient, and the shadows and shadows of the ancient houses on both sides of the road are illuminated into a mottled appearance, and the cars are driving in them, giving people a feeling of being extraordinarily depressed.

Looking at the bright and dark streets through the car window, the old policeman's heart turned a thousand thoughts, and suddenly said to Zhang Muzi, who was sitting beside him: "Muzi, I want to take the police officers in the station to the abandoned mine for a while, and investigate the scene, can you follow us?"

"What," in the dark, Zhang Muzi was stunned for a moment, and blurted out in astonishment: "Uncle Wu, at this time, you still have to go to the abandoned mine, this is not, it's not...", although he swallowed the unlucky word 'looking for death' into his stomach, but the reluctant meaning in the words has been clearly expressed.
