God of unknown origin, please don't ask [criminal investigation]

Wen Xichun rubbed his sore arm, rolled his eyes, and saw that Yao Jingrong came back alone, holding two small twigs in his hands very perfunctorily.

His eyes widened: "Is this the branch you picked?"

Yao Jingrong threw the branch on the ground: "Someone thinks I'm in the way, so I'll come back."

Although I don't know why these two people are at odds with each other all day long, but according to Yao Jingrong's statement: They have been in the industry for a long time, and it is normal for them to have a few familiar colleagues.

Wen Xichun thought it was reasonable. After all, with his stinking personality, it's not surprising how many enemies he has.

Yun Muyao came back with a bunch of branches in his arms, silently took out the lighter, and lit it for a long time, but there was not a single spark?

"Put some burnt stuff in it? Maybe the leaves will grow." Wen Xichun took the initiative to stand up, pulling and hugging the dead leaves on the ground.

At night, the temperature in the woods dropped to freezing point, and there was a strange sound of wind. It was like a creepy "cry of ghosts".

The light of the fire reflected on everyone's face, exuding warmth.

Wen Xichun was lying on his side on the gentle boulder, his pupils trembling slightly with the firelight.

Feeling drowsy, they yawned loudly and slowly closed their eyes.

There is a black candle on the table in front of you. The surface of the candle is covered with weird runes with golden paint. The tongue of fire is licking furiously. The black wax oil slowly flows down the body of the candle. Condensed into a group.

The table was densely filled with insulting words such as "murderer, rapist, beast and scum" with red pens.

A skinny? hand tightly grasped the rag and wiped vigorously on the tabletop, but the more vigorously you wiped it, the more dirty the wax oil was, sticking to the tabletop to form a smooth layer of waxy surface.

That hand suddenly stopped, and then the fingers became more and more forceful, and the knuckles cast a miserable white.

In the crack of the door behind him, countless pairs of eyes are secretly watching this side, the white eyeballs are covered with scarlet blood, as if blood will overflow in the next second.

Those eyes squeezed forward with all their strength, their gazes were strange, almost going through the crack of the door and sticking to the body of the person inside.

In the pitch-black room, only the firelight from the black candle illuminated a small area around it, most of which were still pitch-black.

The owner of that hand slowly raised his head, looking at the blurred? wall in front of him, and the blurred? black and white photos on the wall——

Wen Xichun opened his eyes suddenly, and the strong sense of fear also disappeared in an instant.

It's this strange dream again.

They?Looked around, and they were still familiar?woods, familiar?night, and the fire in front of them exuding light and heat.

"Why are you awake?" Yao Jingrong's recognizable voice came through Night Breeze.

Wen Xichun rubbed his eyes and sat up straight: "It's you, why don't you sit next to me and peek at me."

Yao Jingrong smiled, and looked at Yun Muyao, who was sleeping soundly across the way, and lowered his voice, his tone was vague and gentle: "I didn't have time to take a good look at you before, but now I have the opportunity, of course? Appreciation is enough."

"Disgusting, boring." Wen Xichun scolded? Annoyed? He lay down again.

Although Yao Jingrong didn't refute him, Wen Xichun could clearly feel him lying down behind him, and then approached him a little bit, until the warm breath touched the back of his sensitive neck.

Wen Xichun moved forward, lowered his head, trying to avoid him?

But the heart is still strange? It keeps beating wildly.

I don’t know if it’s a strange thought in my head or did it really exist? Memory, unexpectedly? Some unbelievable pictures appeared, strange, strange, body? Embracing and blending together...

Wen Xichun quickly closed his eyes, trying to find other topics to drive this weird picture out of his mind.

"You? Why did you have so many ear piercings? Why didn't you get cleared during the physical examination?"

"I was specially recruited, and the physical examination only checked some routine items." Yao Jingrong said very vaguely.

Generally, those who can be specially recruited into the police station are those with extraordinary abilities, Yao Jingrong?Did not see it.

"Then why do you have to fight so much?"

Yao Jingrong thought for a while, and replied seriously: "Because I'm coquettish."

"Pfft—" Wen Xichun couldn't help laughing out loud, "You're quite self-aware."

A warm? Hand gently put on his? Shoulder: "It's really late, go to sleep, forget the nightmare, I will always be with you."

Wen Xichun's body was obviously stiff, but when he felt the heat from his palm, he miraculously relaxed.

He stretched out his hand slowly, groping unconsciously with his fingertips, all the way to his shoulder.When he touched the clean and warm back of his hand, his fingertips stopped and did not move.

A chuckle came from behind, bringing a strong sense of sleepiness.

****

When I woke up again, the fire in front of me had already turned into a pile of dirty ashes, and the early morning in the woods was filled with thick mist, and the tide was blowing on the bare skin along the cold wind. on the skin.

Wen Xichun hadn't fully woken up yet, and was still staring at the pile of ashes in a daze, his body? Stimulated by the cold air? He kept shaking.

Yao Jingrong took off his coat and wrapped it from back to front? Wen Xichun, who has not recovered yet, help him tidy up his messy hair a little: "I'll help you prepare toiletries, of course, if you? think It’s not necessary, and I don’t force it.”

Wen Xichun sneezed loudly and rubbed the tip of his red nose: "You have to wash up, why should I deal with it casually."

After washing up, they simply ate two bites of bread, and the three of them planned to try their best to pass through the dense forest within an hour.

The trees here shade each other, covering the sky and the sun, even in broad daylight, it is dark.

The three of them were silent all the way until Yao Jingrong spoke first?:

"This thing looks familiar."

A white cloth strip was tied to a tree branch on the side, and there was a small black bear embroidery on the cloth strip.

It is the same brand as the clothes worn by the girl in the video, and it should be the girl's clothes based on the color and style.

"Maybe the girl is afraid of getting lost, so she tied a strip of cloth to mark it." Wen Xichun analyzed.

Because the strip of cloth was obviously tied up artificially? It was not scratched, and it was specially tied with a? Beautiful? Bowknot.

"Then go down this road? It should be right."

Following the compass all the way to the north, after walking for less than half an hour, the road ahead suddenly opened up.

It turned out that the woods were not big at all, but when a few people walked out of the woods, it was different from the popular "village" in their imagination. There was an endless plain in front of them, with no end in sight.

At that time, the video was forcibly deleted before I finished watching it, so no one knew what to do next.

"How do we go next?" Wen Xichun was worried.

Yun Muyao looked around for a while, and his eyes suddenly stopped somewhere.

He pointed there with his chin: "Follow it."

The two of them followed the sound and looked over, and saw a... a small and smooth little strong appeared on the grass.

Wen Xichun: ==?

But the people around him suddenly had a strange reaction.

Yao Jingrong's face turned livid in an instant, he pursed his lips and took a few steps back, hiding behind Wen Xichun without a trace.

Wen Xichun seemed to have discovered some new continent, and almost laughed out loud without saving face?

"Are you afraid of cockroaches?"

Yao Jingrong raised his head, his light-colored pupils showed a hint of panic, but he still pretended to be calm: "What's so scary about cockroaches?"

"That's good, you? Didn't you always like to be a leader? Cockroaches like places that are dark, humid and rich in food. There must be people living there. Follow it, and we might be able to find Blackwater Village."

Yao Jingrong looked away uneasily, his hands in his pockets were still trembling slightly: "I won't follow, I have the dignity of a human being."

"Is there any dignity in running around like headless chickens without using the ready-made tools?" Wen Xichun shook his head resentfully.

As Yun Muyao said, cockroaches live in groups and love warmth and tides. The place where they live must be rich in food scraps. No matter how bad it is, it is also a corner that can shelter from wind and rain. Such a single? Cockroach will definitely find a way to find a home? People share the happiness of family.

Yao Jingrong did not dare to stand up from the beginning to the end, and followed Wen Xichun step by step.

Wen Xichun, on the other hand, ran wildly all the way, steadfastly taking Xiao Qiang as the most reliable leader.

Xiao Qiang swayed his tentacles, and nimbly ran out of an "S" shape on the grass. After running for an unknown amount of time, it suddenly stopped and did not move.

"Why didn't it run away?" Wen Xichun was puzzled.

"Maybe... Tired?" Yun Muyao thought for a long time, and only thought of this possibility.

Just as he finished speaking, the soil under his feet suddenly collapsed. The thin turf couldn't bear the weight of the three of them at all, and collapsed layer by layer, quickly creating a big hole two meters long.

Before the three could react, Qi Qi fell into it.

"Ahem!" Wen Xichun spit out the dirt in his mouth, and immediately stood up.

He looked awkwardly at the other two, only to find that...

Obviously they fell together? Why did the two of them fall to the ground like everyone else, and only I fell? Dog gnawing mud?

"It's okay." Yao Jingrong supported Wen Xichun, and patted him for fear of dirt on his clothes.

"fine."

The pain in the buttocks is about to split into eight petals, but I can't say it, absolutely can't say it.

"This seems to be a cave. Go ahead? Go? Take a look." Yun Muyao's EQ is relatively high, and she pretends not to see it when she sees it, saving enough face for others.

The entrance of the cave was obviously excavated by humans, it was spacious and smooth, and several people walked along the cave all the way, and soon saw a round bright spot in front of them.

The three of them ran quickly thinking about the light spot, and then, the shock brought by the scene in front of them made the three of them feel that the first half of their life was wasted——

Darkness? A dungeon, rather than a village, might be better described as a castle.

Seven-storey ancient buildings on hanging feet stand in forests, surrounded by mottled lights. In front of the ancient buildings is a towering giant tree with no canopy but only a trunk. It is as wide as countless people. The "branches intersect and combine to form", the coils are intertwined, hideous and treacherous.

Around the ancient building, there are large and small bamboo houses scattered, and a river filled with black miasma does not know where it comes from, and it does not know where the end is, just like this across the entire building complex.

Dark, unlucky, but majestic, this is the first impression of the three of them on this building complex. Other than that, they are filled with dark green, dark green, as if this is the owner of this building complex. keynote.

But after standing here for a long time, I didn't even see a single figure.
