Born in the dark, Ended in the dawn

The large screens all over the wall in the monitoring room are really spectacular, giving people the illusion that the whole city is under their noses. Standing behind Xing Cheng, Wei Lan looked up at the densely packed screens that switched scenes from time to time, and quickly locked on one of them. monitor, "Start with the surveillance video at the place of origin, and gradually search back."

"At the intersection of Qiwei Road and Eleventh Meridian Road in the West District." As he said that, Xing Cheng called up the monitoring records of the road section where the accident happened, "The vehicle involved in the accident was driving on Eleventh Meridian Road, we will go back along Eleventh Meridian Road to find Just fine."

The dark green car with a full sense of design is particularly eye-catching in the picture, and you can notice it at the first time when you go back to each road section.Coincidentally, Huicheng is a city run through by a river. Most of the roads are forced to be crooked due to the direction of the river. Only a few of the roads are horizontal and vertical, and one of them is the Eleventh Meridian Road.

There is nothing special about the footage recorded within 10 minutes. It can be seen that the car has not accelerated or decelerated, nor has it changed lanes, and this moment should be the recording time of the emergency call.Unknown expectations made Wei Lan clench her fists nervously. Before this time point, Hao Lin could be sure that he was alive, and the answers to some of the questions were about to surface.

The inconspicuous shaking of the car confirmed Wei Lan's guess, and immediately corrected the direction after it deviated from the fairway. This was probably caused by Hao Lin's sudden loss of control due to his sudden discomfort.Time continued to go backwards, and the dark green Jaguar drove through a curve in a beautiful arc, and the picture changed again, accurately finding the target from the multiple road sections connected at the other end of the curve.

Wei Lan felt unbelievable about this, the other end of the curve was connected to an intersection, how did Xing Cheng know which intersection the Jaguar came from?

"I'm curious why I know?" Before Wei Lan could ask, Xing Cheng already guessed that Wei Lan would definitely have such a question, "You have your professional sensitivity, and I have mine. That intersection is a traffic artery. In addition to linking this end of the bend, the other three are respectively linked to the direction of the Outer Harbor Industrial Zone, the school district, and the high-end residential area.”

"He doesn't work in an industrial area, and he's not a student." Wei Lan answered with a smile. The answer was obvious. Hao Lin would only come out of a residence in a high-end community.Soon, a Jaguar parked on the side of the road appeared on the screen, but it was not a residential area, but a series of shops. Wei Lan waited quietly, guessing from time to time which shop Hao Lin would come out of, so early in the morning, he would go to buy what?

"Look for yourself, I'm going to the bathroom." Xing Cheng greeted and left the monitoring room.

Wei Lan ignored Xing Cheng, just stared at the doors of those shops intently, without blinking.

The facades of this row of dense shops are neatly decorated, and they should be residential buildings belonging to a certain community. Most of the shops are catering and fast food. In the early morning of weekdays, there should be long queues of people coming and going. Why is there no one on this road?Not to mention the people queuing up to buy breakfast, there were no people passing by, which was really weird.

The target appears!In the picture, Hao Lin pushed open the glass door and came out, swaying and swaying, struggling to open the box in his hand, throwing something into his mouth, then took out a bottle of water from the car and poured it on his head , throwing the carton into the short bushes next to it, but unfortunately the camera is located a little far away, so there is no way to see it more clearly.Wei Lan narrowed his eyes unconsciously. He pressed pause and tried to identify the signboard of the shop Hao Lin came out of.

The blue background makes people feel comfortable and at ease, and the big snow-white characters are very eye-catching, but Wei Lan still can't read the content of the white characters clearly. Where did Hao Linjin buy what?

After eating the contents of the box, Hao Lin seemed to be in better condition. He supported the car to take a rest, and opened the door after he could stand upright.The car door opened, but Hao Lin didn't get in, and just stood still.

"What's going on?" Wei Lan kept switching between pause and play, but the screen was still frozen, and the time recorded in the video did not continue to change. The monitoring system was broken?It can't be such a coincidence.

Tapping the keyboard with his slender fingers, as if shaken by his tapping action, the screen on the monitor suddenly trembled. Wei Lan raised his arm and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead indiscriminately. He knew that what he found was too much. It was late, and the dozens of monitors mounted on the wall had all turned into the same picture at some point, and they were only staring at one monitor all the time, not noticing when the other monitors changed.

The room was a bit cold, and the cold wind blowing from the central air conditioner poured into the mouth and nose, making people shiver. Wei Lan rubbed the goosebumps on her arms.The light was pale and pale, and there was no feeling of glowing or heating. It was even suspected that it was the pale light that lowered the indoor temperature, and it seemed that there was no trace of life.

Xing Cheng went to the toilet for a long time, but he still hasn't come back.Dozens of monitors were all frozen at the moment when Hao Lin opened the car door, like the calm before the storm, Wei Lan actually had a feeling of evasion that wanted to look away from it.

Did he... move?

Wei Lan couldn't be sure if it was his own eyesight or it was real, Hao Lin in the picture moved!This is not an illusion, the time numbers still did not jump, but Hao Lin turned his face away, he no longer looked at the car door, but looked at the camera.

No, to be precise, he was looking at himself on the other side of the monitor through the camera!This knowledge made Wei Lan's scalp tingle. He obviously couldn't see Hao Lin's face clearly from the monitor, but he really felt the cold gaze.

After a piercing electric sound, the entire screen flashed a few times before falling into darkness, and the entire wall was as black as being swallowed by a black hole.Wei Lan backed up and hit the hard door with his back. He didn't close the door, neither did Xing Cheng. Who closed the door?

With a soft click, Wei Lan was secretly glad that the tragedy that would only happen in a horror movie did not happen, the door could be opened, and the hanging heart was relieved.Maybe it's just my own operation error, I accidentally turned it off somewhere, I'd better go to Xing Cheng to solve it, this guy is too exaggerated, even if it is a large size, it should be over after so long.

The corridor was dimly lit, with alternating hot and cold air swirling, the skin was itchy from being irritated by the cold and hot, and even the heart was a little flustered, Wei Lan scratched the skin of her arm and walked towards the bathroom step by step.

"Huh?" Wrong way?Can't.Wei Lan stood blankly in front of a white wall. He clearly remembered that there should be a corner here, and the bathroom is at the end of the corner, but the wall standing in front of him is also genuine, and the cold and rough touch of his palm is not deceiving.

In addition to the way you came, there is only a corridor on the right hand side, which is the corridor leading to the gate.The outside of the transparent glass door was also too dark to see the scenery outside. Wei Lan walked slowly towards the glass door like a ghost, as if there was a very attractive existence there, attracting him step by step.

don't go...

It seemed that there was a voice calling anxiously in his ear, but Wei Lan turned a deaf ear to it. He wanted to go there, and that desire was uncontrollable. The other side of the door was the world he wanted.

Can't pass!

The voice that prevented him from moving forward became sharper. The voice did not come from the ear, but went straight to the heart, piercing like an awl, making his heart ache. Unfortunately, it was only a moment of waking up, and Wei Lan still walked towards the glass door uncontrollably. Push it away and walk out.

Where is this?The suffocating air made his head a little confused, Wei Lan casually looked up at the huge signboard with white characters on a blue background, and didn't think there was anything wrong.The heartbeat is so slow, the breathing is so heavy, so tired, so hard.

Opening the box in his hand, the sharp edge of the carton cut his finger. Fortunately, the wound was not deep, only a little blood oozing out. Wei Lan ignored the wound, peeled off the white pill and threw it into his mouth.Where about water?By the way, the water is in the car.

The dark green Jaguar reflected the faint light, and the heavy feel of the car door made people feel very happy. After unscrewing the water bottle, Wei Lan raised his head and swallowed a few mouthfuls of cold water to swallow the pills. Some senses have also become more sensitive.

I always feel that someone is hiding in an unknown corner and peeping. Since just now, that kind of sight has been around me. Where is it?Wei Lan stared blankly at the deserted street, no one was there, where did the sight come from?He inadvertently looked up and saw the surveillance camera in the distance, and the red light spot from the camera was faintly visible.

Ah, it turned out to be a camera, those traffic policemen are really free, no wonder they have time to post notes everywhere.Ignoring the annoying gaze, Wei Lan got into the car, took a few deep breaths of the cool morning air, and drove the car on the deserted street.

Familiar corners, passing by every day, instinctively turn the steering wheel to draw a perfect arc, and then there is a straight and wide road section, everything is easy to handle.

Wei Lan proudly hummed a little tune, and the unfamiliar tune that came out of her mouth, both the voice and the melody, were full of a strong sense of disobedience. Is my voice like this?It seems... something is wrong.

He opened his mouth, vibrated his throat, and wanted to let himself make a sound again, but found that his throat was so dry and hoarse that it hurt, not to mention making a sound, and breathing became a little difficult.Drowsiness swept over, Wei Lan forced himself to shake his head to stay awake, this time he was completely awake, and at the same time realized how bad his situation was.

His head was still groggy, his chest seemed to be oppressed by a heavy stone, he was breathing so hard, his heart was beating weakly, and it was getting weaker and weaker.This will cause trouble!The car must be pulled over first.

This situation seemed familiar. Wei Lan tried to turn the steering wheel, but found that his arms were so weak that it was difficult to even lift them up. Even if he gritted his teeth and exerted all his strength, the steering wheel remained motionless, or he couldn't even close his teeth.

The hanging arm touched the mobile phone placed in the grid. The development of the times and the advancement of science and technology turned out to be such a happy thing. The touch screen buttons can be pressed without much effort. Wei Lan couldn't help laughing, just But he couldn't make any sound. He was surprised to find that after living for so long and being a policeman for so long, it was the first time that he realized that the numbers of the police and emergency numbers were so short, perhaps for the convenience of quick dialing.

The call was connected, and the sweet voice of the operator was reassuring. Wei Lan opened his mouth and made some weird sounds, unable to speak a word. The operator who got no response hung up the phone, and the confined space returned to silence , This feeling makes people despair.

I can't speak, I can't move, and I can't see or hear clearly. I really want to just sleep like this.

In the silence, the clear and crisp ringtone of the phone suddenly rang. I glanced at the dark screen of the phone, but it didn't show that there was an incoming call. Where was it ringing?This ringtone is so familiar.

Wake up, go back quickly.

who is talking?

can not sleep!

That voice broke into his head again brutally, accompanied by the familiar cool air, tightly wrapping the unconscious body.
