Chapter 37: Horror
Headquarters of Yangcheng Tranquility Association.
Zhang Weihe sent Li Changan to Yangcheng.
After that, Li Changan took a taxi to come here.
Judging from the appearance alone, it is impossible to tell that the villa in front of you will be the headquarters of a secret organization.
It is estimated that the residents living next to it are also unaware.
Knock, knock, knock.
Li Changan knocked on the door.
He didn't have to wait long, but after hearing the sound of slightly hurried footsteps coming from inside the door, the door slowly opened.
A playful head popped out.
"Jingle bell—"
On the head lay a small bamboo with a petite emerald green head, blinking with smart eyes.
"Li Chang'an?" The one who poked out his head was naturally Bai Zhu, the logistics "big housekeeper" of the Quiet Society.
"It's coming quickly."
"Meow?"
On Li Changan's shoulder, a voice suddenly came.
"Huh?" Bai Zhu blinked suspiciously, he didn't see anything.
Immediately afterwards, I saw that on Li Changan's shoulder, a shadow seemed to be slowly dissipating like foam, and the outline of Xiao Phantom was also revealed in Bai Zhu's sight.
"Shadows?"
Bai Zhu showed a look of surprise, she didn't remember that the phantom cat in the mimic area used to have the "shadow escape" skill.
"Meow~~"ฅ(̳•·̫•̳)
"Jingle ~~"
Hanging Bamboo's eyes lit up and he felt surprised.
Xiao Huan's eyes looking at the hanging bamboo were a little different.
Cat-like spirit animals, in many places are actually similar to cats, and when they saw the hanging bamboo hanging in the air, especially after dragging a few slender bamboo leaves, they immediately came to the spirit.
A forward pounce threw himself out of Li Changan's shoulder.
However, the reaction speed of the hanging bamboo was also very fast, accompanied by an ethereal "ding dong" sound, and quickly dodged Xiao Phantom's claws.
Then the two little ones began to play in the living room as if no one was there.
Xiao Phantom half-squatted on the ground, holding a paw, and kept pulling upwards.
The hanging bamboo also maintains its height from time to time, which in turn teases a small illusion.
Meanwhile.
Bai Zhu also welcomed Li Chang'an, and only closed the door after making sure that no one noticed.
"I was the first to come?" After coming in, Li Changan glanced at the hall and asked.
"Where."
Bai Zhu is also a little girl's heart, seeing that Xiao Fan and Hanging Bamboo are having so much fun, she can't help but join in, and she doesn't forget to say:
"Sister Yu, they've been in there for a long time."
Seeing this, several black lines appeared on Li Changan's forehead.
Strode to the side of the conference room.
When they entered, the members of the four action groups of Ran Jianyu, Teng Hongrui, Cao Xinsheng and He Yongnan had already arrived.
Each one has a different expression.
"Here we are." Ran Jianyu saw Li Changan and nodded as a greeting.
"Chang'an!"
But on the other side, Teng Hongrui, who was holding his arms, put away his rare seriousness and walked towards Li Changan with a happy expression.
"Fat guy."
Seeing Teng Hongrui, Li Changan also smiled and said hello.
If he hadn't arrived in time at the Helong Mine last time, it is estimated that Li Changan's grave would be about to grow grass now.
Teng Hongrui patted him on the back and pulled him to the opposite side of Ran Swordfish, where Cao Xinsheng and He Yongnan were standing.
This move represents Teng Hongrui's recognition of Li Changan's ability.
This made Cao Xinsheng and He Yongnan a little surprised, and they couldn't help but look at each other.
Don't look at Teng Hongrui's usual smile, he looks like he gets along very well.
It is possible that someone who has been in the Quiet Society for so long and has a firm foothold will not be easy.
"Chang'an, you are in charge of the case of Zheng Chunyue in Helong Mine, you tell us the process in detail." Ran Swordfish said in a calm tone with a cold face.
The case at the Helong Mine?
Li Changan, who heard this, was stunned.
Hasn't this matter been over for more than ten days?
Is it because of this incident that you called him so urgently today?
But he still told the whole story honestly.
Of course, he kept this thing about the black leather manual.
Hear out.
Ran Jianyu frowned, "In this way, this case is not over here with Zheng Chunyue. ”
In this regard, Li Changan agreed.
Because he also has a lot of doubts, he can't get answers from Zheng Chunyue.
Especially the sentence that Zheng Chunyue said at the end, "It's all a lie".
People who don't know still think that Yang Jiande deceived her, so he killed Yang Jiande.
"So?" Li Changan asked tentatively.
Call him back at night for Zheng Chunyue?
Ran Jianyu raised his eyelids slightly and glanced at him, pursed his lips and looked a little hesitant, and finally said:
"Fatty, take him to see it."
"Okay."
Let's talk about it.
Teng Hongrui walked out of the conference room with a puzzled Li Changan and walked to the stairs.
"Chang'an, be mentally prepared."
Mentally prepared?
The more you say that, the more unsound we are in our hearts, fat brother.
Li Changan secretly slandered in his heart.
can look at Teng Hongrui's appearance, it is estimated that he can't completely say the matter.
In this way, the two walked down the spiral staircase to the underground.
For this, Li Changan is somewhat familiar.
The spirit beasts imprisoned in the thorn cage, the secret mimicry area, the special medical room, the spirit beast instrument room, and so on.
Among them, too, is the prisoner's room.
"The Public Security Bureau failed to pry any useful information out of Zheng Chunyue's mouth."
Walking down the stairs, Teng Hongrui took Li Changan straight to the leftmost passage, and at the same time briefly explained the situation.
"Fat brother, this is not the direction of the prisoner's room." Li Changan reminded.
Teng Hongrui frowned, and said in a rather calm tone:
"Otherwise, why do you think you are in a hurry to call you back?"
"Huh?"
Come to the deepest part of the corridor on the left.
On both sides are thick walls, mostly made of some kind of special black rock, with a slightly potholed surface.
There are also exposed wires on the walls, and at the end of them is a dancing dim grille lamp.
At first glance, it has a bit of an eerie taste.
Directly in front of the two of them was a metal door, which was similar to the door of the mimic area where Li Changan had been before.
Knock, knock, knock.
Teng Hongrui knocked on the door, and there was a dull sound from the metal door.
"Come in." A hoarse voice came from inside the door.
Ancient mother-in-law?
Li Changan instantly heard the characteristic voice of the ancient mother-in-law.
Teng Hongrui covered his snort and took two steps back.
Li Changan glanced at him suspiciously, and out of the case of being tricked by Bai Zhu once, Li Changan also covered his nose and slowly pushed open the metal door.
Just see.
Granny Gu stood solemnly beside a metal bed glowing with silver light, and on the bed lay a corpse with somewhat tattered clothes.
As the door slowly opened, the stench of corpses came to my face.
Fortunately, Li Changan had prepared in advance, but he still couldn't help but lock his brows.
"Mother-in-law."
Li Changan, who was covering his mouth and nose, shouted.
The ancient mother-in-law, who was facing away from him, turned slightly sideways and looked at it with cloudy and cold eyes.
"Team fish, let me come over and take a look and make sure the situation." Li Changan pondered his tone and said.
"Okay."
Granny Gu's furrowed lips moved, and she just spat out a word.
Li Changan approached, looked past the somewhat messy gray hair of the ancient mother-in-law, and looked at the face of the corpse.
"Zheng Chunyue?!"
When he saw his appearance clearly, Li Changan's pupils shrank sharply and blurted out.
What really made him lose his temper was because at this moment, Zheng Chunyue's pale face was densely covered with blood-colored lines like thorns, from top to bottom, as if the whole face was about to crack.
And not only on the head.
Her arms, ankles, and neck are also covered with these lines.
Li Changan couldn't help but take a breath.
Holding back the discomfort in his heart, he took a few steps closer again.
At this time, he seemed to be able to feel the coldness that originated from the dead.
Li Changan stared for a while, and his hanging heart gradually calmed down.
"She'......"
"Died in the prison of the Public Security Bureau. Because the death was too special, and the special case involved before, it was finally sent here. ”
Granny Gu bent over, staring at the blood-colored lines on the corpse, and explained while observing carefully.
"Did you find anything?"
"Nope." Granny Gu's answer was unexpectedly simple.
The morgue, which was already a little cold, suddenly became awkward.
"Look at this."
As she spoke, Granny Gu took out a stack of photos from her pocket and handed them over.
Li Changan took the photo with some doubts, and before he had time to look at it, he heard Granny Gu remind:
"Be careful, don't get too caught up."
Careful with photos?
"Some people, after seeing the scene where these photos were taken, went straight to the hospital."
Hearing this, Li Changan hurriedly put away his mind.
Look towards the photo.
When the scene in the photo was presented in view, the originally calm heart instantly lifted, and the temples beat uncontrollably.
The photo is supposed to be a separate special prison.
but on the walls of this prison.
Extremely messy with a large number of bloodstained drawings.
At first glance, there is no pattern to be found at all, it seems to be just random scribbling.
After the initial shock, Li Changan continued to look down at the photo.
For the most part, it's a messy smear.
But looking at it, Li Changan noticed that something was wrong.
"It's ...... Ancient scripts?! ”
"That's one of the reasons to call you back." The ancient mother-in-law did not raise her head.
Suddenly, Li Changan's mind moved.
He laid the photographs flat on the table, piecing together the messy smears little by little, when all the photographs were put together in one.......
Granny Gu noticed his movements and leaned over to take a look.
"I didn't expect to see it that way."
But she frowned as well.
"It seems to be more like a ....... than just an ancient script. A....... Cursed ......"
Granny Gu seemed to be stunned.
Walk briskly over to another small long table with a nearly tattered book on it.
She quickly flipped through it.
Curse?
Isn't it instigation?
Li Changan came to the metal table.
Looking at the pale almost paper-colored skin, the fine blood-colored lines, like a spider's web, expanded.
Well?
Li Changan was stunned for a moment.
He saw that a line on his face seemed to ...... Squirmed?
Resisting the discomfort, I took a closer look to determine if it was dazzling.
The cold feeling seemed to be reflected on his body from the corpse, and the hairs stood uncontrollably.
The next moment.
The corpse that has been dead for I don't know how many days, my eyes opened suddenly!
