Aoba Office

I'm still in a bad mood.

This time the dream didn't last long, and a lot of the content passed by in a flash. I saw the evil side of the three girl ghosts I saw in my dream even before I had much sympathy for them. This feeling is really terrible.

In fact, I know it in my heart. They have encountered great misfortune. Whether they were alive or dead, they all encountered tragic things and deserve sympathy. But what they did next made me hate them and completely blew away any sympathy I had.

I felt something soft on the back of my hand and turned my head sharply.

The teddy bear stood on the bed with one leg, bent over and touched the back of my hand. When it noticed that I was looking over, it straightened up and stared at me with its two glass eyes.

I exhaled, sat up from the bed, and touched its head.

"Is Lu Qiaolan sleeping? How did you get in?" I spoke to the teddy bear.

The teddy bear was petted by me obediently, so of course it was impossible to answer.

I have known for a long time that these teddy bears owned by Lu Qiaolan are gentle toys. The teddy bear itself is a toy that accompanies children and is full of love for children. Later, with the development of the brand, like many other children's products, the consumer group expanded to adults.

The most cruel thing they have ever done is probably to eat the souls of children who have invaded their bodies.

If you think about it carefully, if Lu Qiaolan hadn't kept her heart, these teddy bears might have turned into evil spirits.

I sighed again.

Soon it was daybreak.

Zhuang Huai contacted the people at the police station and organized the manpower.

I didn't go to greet Chen Zian, so I followed the police to Waigou Village with Lu Qiaolan.

Zhuang Huai told the police that he found a clue to the missing person, which was the cave.

I was a little worried about their safety after entering the cave, but it was impossible for the police to clear the vines at the entrance of the cave and leave directly, leaving us to explore.

I found an opportunity to talk to Zhuang Huai in private.

"As the people's police, our duty is to protect the safety of the people at all costs." Zhuang Huai's words were high-sounding, but his tone was firm. It can be seen that he really thought so. However, he then added: "These police officers are all from the countryside."

It's not that the people from Huixiang are willing to die, so he, a foreigner, can take it calmly, but the people from Huixiang have privileges in Huixiang, and the ghosts from Huixiang will not harm them.

Among the policemen present, except for Zhuang Huai himself, there were really no policemen from other places. They were all pure Huixiang people.

Zhuang Huai understood it this way, and the policemen in Huixiang also believed it so firmly. However, when they looked at me, they all looked worried and somewhat withdrawn. I guess I believed those ghost stories just like the security guards and thought that a capable person from out of town like me would be a drag on Huixiang.

Zhuang Huai could fool people into finding people, but he couldn't prevent them from being passive and sabotaging their work.

I reminded Zhuang Huai.

Zhuang Huai searched the Internet in front of me. I have never seen the software he used. It may be the internal software of the police station, and it found some Huixiang case files. The incident in Huixiang Park that the security guard said was recorded, and it was a mass injury incident.

I don't know what the female ghost in the cave will do. According to what she saw in the dream, she should be targeting good-looking girls. Maybe it was because of his own experiences that he was angry at those good-looking girls. If this is the case, these big men in front of us should all be safe. Even Lu Qiaolan, a haggard middle-aged woman, would probably not be selected as a target.

However, I still remember what Nangong Yao said, and I also remember the changes that the old ghost in the next village said. The situation in the cave might have changed.

There were a dozen police officers spread out near the cave, looking for clues, and a few were slowly cutting the vines.

I looked around but didn't hear the bell. I wonder if the headless ghost knew we were working hard and didn't show up, or he was absent for a while and didn't show up.

Lu Qiaolan and I stood beside the police car, waiting for the police to find something.

The police who had gone out to look for clues came back one after another, but the vines at the entrance of the cave were still densely packed. At most, there were some holes, but if the vines were entangled and cut some holes, they couldn't be cleared away quickly.

"Can we burn it with fire?" Zhuang Huai suggested to a policeman.

"This is inside the mountain, how can we use fire to burn it?" The policeman was startled and shook his head repeatedly.

"Let the fire brigade come and take a look, control the fire, and just burn some vines. It should be fine, right?" Zhuang Huai was not sure, but his expression was serious, "I don't know how long it will take to cut it like this."

"What about changing to a chainsaw?" Another policeman offered an idea.

The tools used by the police now are several knives, which are said to be specialized tools for gardening.

I don’t really understand, I can only watch them working.

They discussed for a long time and still wanted to seek support.

There is no signal here, so we can only send people outside the village to contact the police station.

I looked at the two police officers leaving. I didn't know why, but I always felt a little uneasy.

"More people, let's act together!" I spoke and stopped the two policemen.

When I spoke out, the policemen felt as if they had been pricked by needles, their muscles twitching.

"There are rumors here that there is an underground casino and an illegal criminal group, so it is better to have more people and act together." I said bravely.

Being in the spotlight like this really makes me uncomfortable.

What I said makes sense.

Zhuang Huai should have said this at the police station, otherwise the police in Huixiang knew it well.

They discussed it, and the five policemen walked out together, which was enough to make a car.

I still feel a little uneasy.

Lu Qiaolan asked me.

I can only shake my head.

I glanced at the backpack Lu Qiaolan was carrying. The teddy bear did not escape.

The remaining group took turns being gardeners, cutting the vines.

I stepped forward and looked at the ends of the vines, but I didn't see any flowers. This is the most ordinary plant, at most it is a few years old, very old in texture, and very healthy, without any signs of rotting and withering.

I continued to work like this for a while, but the progress was limited. The person who went out to call for help never came back.

This communication-interrupted environment made me nervous.

Zhuang Huai was more alert than me. He gathered the policemen from Huixiang and discussed it for a while. The results of their discussion came out quickly, mainly because the policemen in Huixiang strongly requested to go back.

"Hey, this place is already evil, but if you add another one..." The policeman who spoke glanced at me and swallowed his words, "In short, we can't stay in this place, let's leave quickly."

He said that the responders were all Huixiang police officers.

Zhuang Huai and I didn't insist either.

The current situation is indeed a bit strange.

Something must have happened outside. Either Zhuang Huai's request for reinforcements is being ignored, or something worse... If he had agreed and dispatched manpower, someone would have arrived long ago.

I hope it's the former.

But judging from Zhuang Huai's expression, it's probably the latter.
