Although they were lying in bed, their brains were working with great excitement, tossing and turning and unable to fall asleep, making the waiting time extraordinarily long.

It was easy to survive until dawn, and several people quickly jumped up from the bed and went straight to the location of the dry well.

"What if that place is demolished as well? After all, so many years have passed. Lori rubbed her hands together and spat out a white mist as she spoke.

"We can't always be unlucky, and luck should be on our side this time."

Yuan Mu stretched out her hand and hugged Luo Li, she originally wanted to warm Luo Li, but she didn't want this casual hug to make Luo Li's heart full of warmth.

"The navigation shows that the dry well is at the corner of the mountain on the west side of the road and bridge, and there is a high probability that it is still there." Ji Si'an's hands were red from the cold, and he clicked on the mobile phone screen a few times before the navigation was displayed.

When they arrived at the dry well, the sun had completely risen, but it was obscured by the mountain peaks not far away, and the warm bright yellow in the distance and the cold and dark blue in the near distance formed a clear spectacle.

"If it hadn't been colder...... The scenery here is not bad. As he spoke, Yuan Mu lifted the zipper of his shirt up again.

"Forget about the scenery, I only feel the wind, but I don't see the scenery." Lori stomped her feet while complaining.

"It's coming soon. From light to darkness, we are true warriors. Although Ji Si'an was cold, he still had the heart to tease.

Wells, Ji Si'an saw a lot when he was in the countryside, and at that time, almost every household would draw water from the well in the center of the village to eat. She took it for granted that the well here was the same as the well in her hometown.

Therefore, when Luo Li pointed to the round pit in front of her with a diameter of 5 or 6 meters and told her that this was a dry well, she couldn't help but open her mouth wide.

"How could it be...... So big? The cold and surprise made her words choppy.

"It's an irrigation well, and of course it's going to be deep and big." Luo Li seemed familiar with this behemoth that often appeared in stories when she was a child.

"This well seal is a little sloppy." Yuan Mu pointed to the cement slab that would only cover half of it and said.

"It may be that the weathering for a long time has broken the semi-cement slab."

As she spoke, Luo Li leaned out and glanced down the well, then quickly retracted.

"That's it, this hopeless feeling of vertigo often appeared in my nightmares as a child......

"I often dream that I fell into a well and kept falling down, and it was all black all around, which was very scary."

Lori shuddered, and she still had lingering fears when she thought of those nightmares.

"That's not a dream caused by your physiology." Although Yuan Mu said this, he didn't dare to look down directly.

She knelt down on the edge of the well before she carefully leaned out and shone a flashlight into the well.

"Laugh at me, you see you're more timid than me...... Lori rolled her eyes before she could take them back.

Yuan Mu screamed, and the strong flashlight almost fell into the well.

"What's wrong?"

When Luo Li asked, her body reflexively took a big step back.

"Rat ......." Yuan Mu's teeth trembled a little, and he couldn't tell whether it was because of fear or cold.

"Rats don't have to be afraid. Maybe your screaming has scared it away. "There has never been a shortage of mice in Ji Si'an's life, and over time she has long been immune to this small animal.

"Dry corpse...... A mouse suddenly crawled out of the dry corpse's mouth. Yuan Mu took a long time to find his normal voice.

"Ahh Luo Li involuntarily jumped back again.

"Really...... There really are corpses ....... Ji Si'an's face turned pale and he retreated again and again, and he almost fell to the ground.

If he really met the real person, Yuan Mu, who was still a policeman, was the most courageous among them. Yuan Mu also glanced at it, and after the two of them heard the word dry corpse, they couldn't wait to withdraw from Bazhang Yuan.

Yuan Mu looked at the two people hugging in the distance, and reluctantly took out his mobile phone and called the criminal police team.

"That...... The police will come soon...... here...... It's too cold. If we don't need ......, let's go out into the sun and wait. Lori overcame the twitching of her teeth and struggled to finish her sentence.

"Coward, go ahead. Just the care site, there is no difference here and there. ”

The long-abandoned land is overgrown with weeds, and it looks like no one has been here for a long time.

Hearing that there was a corpse, the criminal police team quickly sent someone over. After the on-site inspectors entered the dry well, the master came to Yuan Mu slowly. "You girl, what should I say? Recruit the physique. ”

"Master, she's about to catch up with Conan, what's going on." Li Muzi said with added fuel and vinegar on the side.

"I'm checking whether it's good or not. We found this body. Yuan Mu waved his fist at Li Muzi.

"Oh? You checked it with those two little girls? The master asked.

"What little girl? We're all grown-ups now. Didn't I tell you before that we were looking for the missing Yang Siqi? We suspect that what is in the well is. Yuan Mu explained dissatisfiedly.

"Yang Siqi? Yang Xiu? The journalist? The master's expression immediately became serious.

"Well, maybe this is a breakthrough."

"Muzi, you come with me, when the inquest is over, let's go down and have a look." So saying, the master walked towards the dry well.

"Where to look? Master...... Wait for me. Li Muzi chased forward.

Yuan Mu looked at their backs and clenched his fists, hesitated for a while, and finally made up his mind to chase after them.

"Master...... Wait for me. I'm going down too. ”

Yuan Mu's words made Luo Li's eyes widen. "Xiao An, I heard you right. She's going down ....... ”

"Well, you heard it right." Although Ji Si'an replied calmly, he was already full of emotion in his heart.

Mu Mu wanted to gain a foothold in that male-dominated profession, and he must have experienced unimaginable hardships .......

The dry well had been abandoned for too long, and they were worried about the lack of oxygen below, so they waited for nearly half an hour after removing the cement slab at the wellhead before they began to arrange for the on-site inspectors to go down the well.

Yuan Mu and other policemen, with the traction of the safety rope, stepped on the inner wall of the dry well and slowly descended, and not long after climbing down, he was dizzy by the stench rising from the well. A distraction, her feet slipped on the slippery wall of the well, and she almost fell.

"Be careful." Fortunately, Li Muzi, who had been observing her situation, grabbed her in time and helped her stabilize her body.

"I'm fine." Yuan Mu's lips tightened.

Li Muzi had no way to take the stubborn Yuan Mu, knowing that she would not give up, so he had to stay by her side.

"I didn't expect the moisture at the bottom of the well to be so big. This Yang Xiu has been missing for at least ten years, and there is no reason to become a dry corpse. The master muttered to himself.

Listening to the master's words, Yuan Mu blushed: "Maybe I didn't see it clearly." ”

"The corpse was in a terrible shape, its mouth was wide open, it felt very hideous, and I was terrified ...... a mouse came out of his mouth."

When she said these words, although Yuan Mu tried her best to control her voice, they could still hear her fear in her trembling voice.

"Follow me in a moment. The on-site inspectors look at the details, and we focus more on the whole. It is necessary to have an in-depth judgment of the entire scene. ”

Overcoming instinctive fear is the first step to becoming a criminal policeman, and if Yuan Mu wants to be a criminal policeman, he must practice facing these calmly.
