Boss, your dragon!
Chapter 59 The real murderer
Luo Xu was stunned for a moment: "Really? Where is it?"
With mixed feelings in Zhu Yun's heart, he reluctantly smiled at the two of them: "Go, let's go to the archives room."
Luo Xu seemed hesitant to speak, but seeing Zhu Yun's face, he didn't ask any further questions, and nodded: "Then go to the archives room first."
When going upstairs, Luo Xu and Zhu Qiu walked in front, while Zhu Yun was left behind with complicated thoughts.The gloomy small western-style building is very cramped, and the moonlight is bright, casting a small shadow from the high window, printed on the peeling wall, lonely and far away.
Zhu Yun took a look, and suddenly felt a moist touch from the corner of his lips.Looking down, I saw the little black dragon grabbing his front with two soft paws, trying to raise his neck to get closer to him, his waxy blue eyes were full of worry.
He laughed dumbfounded, hugged it higher, and kissed the little wings.
"Tell me," Zhu Yun muttered, "is what we are doing really right?" He can already conclude that Zheng Gui is inseparable from the whole thing, and even she herself may be the real culprit.But can what she did be counted as justice?
The file room was pried open again, and Luo Xu led the two of them inside.Passing through rows of bookshelves, Zhu Yun suddenly stopped, turned aside, and reached out to take down an old file book.Compared with the last time I came, it didn't even change its position in the slightest.
Turning directly to the last page, the word "Zheng Gui" is particularly glaring.Looking at the group photo on the previous page, the 16-year-old Zheng Gui has her hair cut very short, wearing an old shirt that has been washed white, and there is no expression on her indifferent and delicate face. recognize her.
Zhu Yun smiled wryly. This document is still here, which just shows that her sudden appearance in the archives room that night was not to destroy the evidence at all. She was probably worried that they would accidentally discover the secret passage hidden in the archives room.
"Brother Yun! Brother Luo!" The little lizard exclaimed not far away.
Zhu Yun closed the old booklet, closed his eyes, collected his thoughts, turned around and walked to his place.
Moving away the heavy display cabinet, a swirling dust was raised, revealing a heavy iron door behind it.At the time of the initial design, there might be some mechanism hidden, but Zhu Qiu didn't have the patience to look for it at all, and directly broke through violently, lifting the entire display case.
"There is a lock on the door." Zhu Yun touched it, and when he turned his head, he saw the little lizard eager to try, as if he really wanted to remove the door too.
Zhu Yun: "..." Could this contestant please give a little dignity to the puzzle-solving session?
Luo Xu couldn't stand it anymore, and walked forward, took out a whole set of tools, squatted down and began to toss around.Zhu Yun enthusiastically illuminated him, but not long after, Luo Xu turned around, looking a little embarrassed.
Zhu Yun asked with concern, "Why, isn't it bright enough?"
Luo Xu paused for a moment, then tentatively said, "Can you turn it off? It's too bright, it hurts my eyes."
Looking at his ever-shrinking vertical pupils, Zhu Yun was silent and put away the flashlight—he often forgot that this is not an ordinary person!
Once again, only the moonlight was left in the room, Luo Xu was satisfied, and his subordinates continued to work.Bored, Zhu Yun moved two steps to the side, opened a corner of the curtain, and suddenly noticed a person standing in the shadow of the whirling trees outside the window.
"Damn it?" He thought he had made a mistake, rubbed his eyes and looked again, only to find that the shadow was still there.
The man was motionless, wearing a black hoodie, looking up at the second floor, his appearance was unclear.Zhu Yun turned around and wanted to ask Zhu Qiu, who had better night vision, to come over and take a look, but in the end, he disappeared in such a flash of magic.
His heart beat faster, worried that the man had entered the building, so he hurriedly told the two of them.Unexpectedly, Zhu Qiu listened on the ground holding his breath, shook his head and said that there were only three of them in the room.
"I can even hear my heartbeat clearly." Zhu Qiuxiao looked quite proud, "Don't worry, Brother Yun, he must have been scared away."
While talking, there was a muffled trembling "squeak" sound, and the rusty iron door was pulled open by Luo Xu.
The secret passage exposed was pitch black, Zhu Yun couldn't see anything clearly, but he could catch a glimpse of Luo Xu's unusually dignified expression.When the dust settled, a faint rancid smell gradually diffused, and even Zhu Yun felt something was wrong.
He boldly called out, "Is anyone there?"
An echo came from afar, but only the gloomy wind in his ears answered him.Luo Xu was guarding the door, and Zhu Qiu tried to walk a few steps in, only to hear a click, as if he had kicked something fragile.
Zhu Yun finally found the flashlight again, turned it on, and flicked it in briefly, and saw that what Zhu Qiu was stepping on was a pile of white bones.Judging by the size and shape, and appearing in this kind of place again, I'm afraid it can't be some animal bone.
Zhu Yun only felt that his scalp was numb, and hurriedly called Zhu Qiu to come out—this was just the entrance of the secret passage, and if he walked deeper, there might be more bones, and the increasingly strong smell of decay permeated his nose, which made people feel sick. Feeling faintly nauseous.
Luo Xu was not afraid at all, and weighed the tools in his hand: "What should we do now? Squat inside and wait for the rabbit?"
Zhu Yun: "..."
Zhu Qiu was also very excited. After squatting down to check, he said, "It probably couldn't fit here, so I buried it in the sandpit at the back? It's quite convenient."
Zhu Yun silently took out the phone: "Call the police."
The police car came roaring, the sleeping orphanage was awakened, the lights were turned on one by one, and the corridor was full of sleepy children.
Zhu Yun was standing outside the old school building, wrapped in a coat, and then belatedly got goose bumps all over his body.The policemen who came out of the building also looked very ugly. There were too many bones in the secret passage, many of them were bone-shattered, and several big bags couldn't fit them.
Suddenly, Zhu Yun saw an acquaintance sharply: "Officer Lu?"
Lu Guangchen was tilting his head and talking to someone in a low voice, when he heard the voice, he turned his head and looked surprised: "Mr. Zhu? Are you here too?"
Zhu Yun was also very surprised, Lu Guangchen was obviously a policeman in City S, why did he work across cities?Lu Guangchen explained that they later found out the identity of the female corpse through the Internet, so as a cooperative unit, they launched a cross-city hunt and investigation.
"I didn't expect that," Lu Guangchen touched his chin, "I just arrived in the afternoon, and I planned to come here tomorrow to investigate, who knows that I saved time."
With Lu Guangchen's guarantee, the three of Zhu Yun were freed from suspicion. The police station left a few people on duty, and the others rushed back to the unit overnight, taking away the dean and some teachers.After being busy for most of the night, the noisy orphanage gradually quieted down.
Zheng Gui was also on the investigation list. Before leaving, she leaned on the roof of the police car, turned her head and glanced, and accurately found Zhu Yun from the crowd.Across the chaotic scene, the two looked at each other from a distance, and Zhu Yun felt that her eyes were very calm and her expression was indifferent, as if she had finally coincided with the girl in the photo.
She only glanced at it, then turned her eyes away as if nothing had happened, lowered her head and sat in the car.
Zhu Yun rubbed the center of his brows wearily, and was about to go back to rest, only to find that there were still many children standing on the second floor of the living area. They looked down from the corridor with curious faces.The teachers were too busy to take care of themselves, so naturally no one took them back to sleep.
@无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City
Zhu Yun and others and several policemen had no choice but to take on the responsibility of the teachers and drive them back to the dormitory one by one to appease them.The children were very well-behaved, and they were not in distress, and they were taken back to the dormitory quietly.
This is Zhu Yun's first visit to the place where the children live.He looked around, only to find that the windows here are bright and clean, much better than the old school building.
Several police officers finished the resettlement work and called Zhu Yun to leave together.Zhu Yun responded, walked out of the room, and suddenly found a soft little ball rolling out of the shadow at the end of the corridor.
Is it the missing child?He picked up the ball and walked a few steps towards the dimly lit water room.It was nearly five o'clock in the morning, and the morning sun suddenly appeared on the horizon, revealing a rosy light.
"Xiao Ran?" Zhu Yun saw the little girl standing by the wall, and was taken aback, "Aren't you going to sleep?"
Xiao Ran raised her head, her big beautiful eyes revealed complex gazes that did not match her age.She gestured and handed him something.Zhu Yun looked down, only to find that it was the rabbit doll she had always regarded as a treasure.
She opened her mouth and gestured several times, looking a little anxious.
Zhu Yun didn't understand sign language, but looking at her eyes, he squatted down and asked tentatively, "Give it to me?"
Xiaoran smiled slightly, nodded, and stuffed the worn-out rabbit into his hand.Zhu Yun took the rabbit and weighed it, only to realize that his previous feeling was correct. The doll was heavy, as if it had been filled with sand.
Before he could ask, Xiao Ran turned around and ran away.
Zhu Yun hugged the rabbit and returned to the faculty dormitory full of doubts. Although the case was half solved, he always felt uneasy.
As Luo Xu expected, a secret passage was also found in the old dormitory building, but there were no bones inside, so only two police officers were sent on duty, and some employees were still sleeping inside.Zhu Yun bypassed Xie Ming, who was dozing on a chair, and opened the door to enter his room.
Luo Xu didn't sleep yet, frowning and lying on the table writing and drawing.
"What's wrong?" Zhu Yun said.
"Look, the entrance found in the building is in the water room." Luo Xu said, "I just walked around, but some details are not right."
"Huh?" Zhu Yun tucked the quilt for Zhu Qiu who was sleeping on his back, and turned to look at the drawings on the table.
Luo Xu frowned: "It's just my guess. There may be more than one secret passage in this building." He knocked on the table, thoughtful: "If there is another entrance, where will it be hidden?"
Zhu Yun said: "Let the police conduct a thorough investigation after dawn. They are guarding downstairs now."
Several people rested separately, and most of the teachers under investigation were released the next afternoon.Zhu Yun went downstairs to chat with the changing policeman, but he heard a little policeman scratching his head and saying, "The dean is so awesome, and he even confessed to other places where the corpses are hidden. The branch went to dig overnight and found the corpses , there must be at least a dozen victims, this case has shocked even the province."
Zhu Yun was surprised: "Who are you talking about? Dean?"
The little policeman nodded and said yes, saying that the dean had confessed to all the charges last night, with a good attitude of admitting his mistakes, and he couldn't see that he was such a mad murderer at all.
Zhu Yun: "Sorry, I..." His mind was a little confused, how could he be the dean?Obviously the insider should be Zheng Gui.He collected himself and continued to ask about Zheng Gui's situation.
Little policeman: "Teacher Zheng? I don't know. It seems that the criminal police detachment has identified the suspect as the dean. Haven't all the other teachers been released?"
No, Zhu Yun remembered clearly that among the teachers brought back by the police car, there was no Zheng Gui at all.He bid farewell to the police on duty in a hurry, and asked several teachers who came back together, but no one knew where Zheng Gui had gone.
He vaguely felt something was wrong, turned around and went upstairs, but bumped into Luo Xu.
"I was looking for you." Luo Xu hurriedly said, "Who gave this to you?" He opened his palm, revealing a diary and several cassettes.
Zhu Yun was also stunned: "What is this? Where did you come from?"
Zhu Qiu poked his head out from the room and waved the torn doll in his hand. The belly of the rabbit doll was flattened. Maybe these things were put there before.
"This... Xiaoran gave it to me." Zhu Yun murmured, "What's written in it?"
Luo Xu's face was a bit complicated, and he only said to let him see for himself.
Zheng Gui's old diary is not thick, and the words are simple, but it outlines a chilling past.Zhu Yun hurriedly read on, only to find that Hu Guangping's so-called love partner is Zheng Gui, who is only 15 years old.
She hated and was afraid, but she didn't know how to refuse. Hu Guangping even forced her to take many photos.He became more and more courageous, and often took Zheng Gui to his home, until one day, Xu Chengjie, who came to return the newspaper clippings, ran into the two of them.
Xu Chengjie and Zheng Gui are brothers and sisters in love, and immediately clashed with Hu Guangping, but he was accidentally cut by Hu's mother who heard the sound.Hu Guangping did not take Xu Chengjie for treatment because he was afraid of being exposed, but put him in the "punishment room" after hastily bandaging him.
Xu Chengjie was not the only child in confinement, but unfortunately, one of them suffered from a severe and fatal respiratory infectious disease.
It was too late when it was discovered. In a panic, in order to isolate the source of infection and conceal the truth about child abuse in the orphanage, the dean at the time discussed with several teachers and locked the "punishment room" completely.
It is not known whether Xu Chengjie and the other three children died of disease or lack of water and hunger. Afterwards, the director led people in isolation suits to dispose of their bodies in private.However, under the almost mortal circumstances, a child disappeared.
They searched all over the room, but failed to find the missing child, so they had to give up.
Zhu Yun felt cold all over her body: "The 'punishment room' she mentioned is..."
"According to her description, it should be a secret passage." Luo Xu said, "As for the missing child..."
Zhu Yun and he looked at each other, and lost his voice: "Spider girl?!"
Not every hybrid knows their identity, and there are many hybrids like Spider Girl who lost their parents before they could remember.They maintained their human form since childhood and mixed in human society.
The spider girl grew up in the orphanage, and probably thought she was an ordinary human being until she awakened as a spider in a secret passage and escaped the catastrophe.From that moment on, she broke away from the track of being a "human", changed her appearance, and completely got rid of the shackles of the orphanage.
The first half of the diary is about Zheng Gui's past, and the second half records her bloody revenge with the help of others.
Luo Xu's face was gloomy, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Zhu Yun said dryly: "If it's really the spider girl, then it's probably not surprising that she hates humans so much, and even added 'fangs' later."
Luo Xu glanced at him, and said slowly: "No, the crime of killing an innocent person will not be weakened by half because the murderer was a victim." He paused, lowered his gaze, and said in a low voice: "I We will definitely find her and... kill her."
Zhu Yun was silent and did not speak.
Zhu Qiu found a tape recorder from nowhere, and stuffed some old tapes into it.After the rustling sound, gasps of extreme fear and Zheng Gui's laughing voice began to be heard from the tape.
"Hey, are you pleading guilty?"
The person being interrogated appeared to have a total mental breakdown, sobbing and confessing to the crimes he had committed.There is more than one person in a tape, and Zheng Gui recorded at least a dozen recordings.With the exception of sexual assault, most are acts of punishment for abuse.I don't know what she did at that time, the other party almost talked like beans in a bamboo tube.
Zhu Yun pressed pause after listening halfway through. The truth revealed by those people was shocking, and it was unbearable to listen to it again.
Luo Xu put away the information and said calmly: "Let's go, we have to find the last secret passage."
Zhu Yun nodded: "Okay. Wait a minute, I will hand over these materials to the police first." On the way downstairs, Zhu Yun hesitated. These materials may not be used as evidence of child abuse, but they must prove that Zheng Gui is illegal| charges of imprisonment.
Although I don't know why the new dean is willing to take the blame for her, but if there are these materials, Zheng Gui will definitely not be able to escape the punishment of the law.
@无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City
Zhu Yun knew in his heart that the so-called crime cannot be justified for reasonable reasons.However, when he was really faced with a choice, he couldn't help hesitating.
Was everything Zheng Gui did wrong?If he had chosen to hand it over to the police, the murderer might not have received the punishment he deserved.
"Treat the person in the same way as the person", what should be done when the law cannot appease the anger?
Zhu Yun was a little at a loss, in fact, he didn't know what decision he would make if he was in such a situation.Just as he was thinking, he had already reached the first floor, but the two policemen who were supposed to be on duty were not in the duty room.
He turned around and found that several police cars were still parked at the door, but the police officers on duty in various places were gone.
It was almost dusk at this time, and the setting sun like salted egg yolk was hanging far away in the sky. It should be a quiet beauty, but it made his heart beat.
Zhu Yun quickly returned to the dormitory, saw that Luo Xu and Zhu Qiu were still there, he was relieved, and described what he saw.Luo Xu frowned: "Be careful, she might be back."
Zhu Yun nodded and called the police again. The other party said that they would send a new duty officer to check as soon as possible.
Putting down the phone, he said in confusion: "Zheng Gui has successfully escaped from the control of the police, why should he take risks? Unless..." A flash of light suddenly flashed in his mind, and he stood up abruptly: "Damn it!"
"how?"
"I think...there may be someone alive." Zhu Yun walked around the room, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case. "If she comes back, there is only one reason, and that is to kill someone."
Luo Xu also stood up: "Another secret passage."
"If she has sneaked back to the orphanage, I'm afraid we don't have enough time to find it slowly." Zhu Yun spread out the blueprint on the table and said anxiously, "Where is the secret passage? Do you have any clues?"
Luo Xu said: "The public area has been turned upside down. If there are secret passages, they can only be hidden in the dormitory."
"Dormitory, dormitory..." Zhu Yun murmured, and suddenly stopped, "I know!" He hurried out, "It's Xie Ming's room!"
Xie Ming didn't dare to go back to the room to sleep, maybe it was because she knew the entrance was in her room.As an old employee of the orphanage, she must know the entrance to the "punishment room".I don't know why Zheng Gui didn't take revenge on her, but the tragic situation of her colleagues was enough to scare her unconscious.
Fear is also a kind of torture. Zheng Gui forced her to stay in the orphanage, but she never dared to sleep at the entrance, so she could only sit at the door every night.
Time was running out, so Zhu Qiu kicked open the door.Xie Ming's room was empty, only a quilt and a few pieces of clothing.Before they had time to investigate carefully, they moved all the furniture against the wall away.
The familiar iron door appeared behind the large wardrobe, and there were obvious traces of a switch, and someone might have already entered it first.It was too late to adjust the password, and several people looked at each other. Zhu Qiu immediately grabbed the doorknob with his hands, stepped on the wall with his right foot, and with a low shout, he dragged the iron door slightly out of shape, and then pulled out a piece of paper that was as wide as one person. gap.
"Go." Luo Xu stepped in first.
They started running in the dark secret passage, and before they had gone far, they heard a chuckle.This voice was very familiar to Zhu Yun, and Luo Xu's eyebrows twitched, and he also realized: "Spider Girl."
After being called to reveal her identity, a thin little girl with twin ponytails slowly turned out from the shadows in the corner.All of a sudden, it turned into a huge mottled spider, with a girl's face slowly revealed in the terrifying thick black chelicerae.
She spit out words and hissed: "Go back, I won't let you go."
Bai once said that the spider girl is a mutated hybrid, and her combat power can be regarded as the front row within the "Venom" organization.When Zhu Yun was worried, Luo Xu sneered, and the prototype appeared.
Compared to the last time we dealt with the old lady, this time the giant snake was much bigger, and its entrenched body almost filled the entire tunnel.He didn't say much, twisted his huge body, stepped forward like lightning, and tightly entangled the spider.
Spider Girl's eight legs worked together to break free, drawing a few scars on the surface of the giant snake's scales, but she also staggered back a step.The first confrontation can be regarded as evenly matched.
Luo Xu didn't stop attacking, changed the angle, and swooped over again, rolling the spider girl into a dark corner.
"Run." Zhu Qiu grabbed Zhu Yun's hand suddenly, and took advantage of this gap to drag him across the corner.
Zhu Qiu seemed to have sensed something, and was circling around the dark corridor at a high speed, with a clear goal.Turning a corner again, Zhu Yun could only hear his own rapid breathing.Suddenly, a strong force came, and he was thrown to the ground, and then a fire suddenly lit up in the darkness.
Zhu Qiu also changed back to his original form, covering him in a protective posture.Amidst the violent noise, Zhu Yun looked through the gap and saw several uniformed police officers raising their guns and firing. The bullets could not penetrate the lizard's hard outer armor, but the bullets bounced repeatedly in the narrow corridor. Very dangerous.
He looked closely, but recognized a policeman who had chatted with him downstairs.The opponent was expressionless and kept pulling the trigger, as if he didn't recognize him.His movements were stiff and unnatural, like a marionette, which instantly reminded Zhu Yun of the dean—it should be Zheng Gui who used some means to control others.
Zhu Qiu protected Zhu Yun from getting away. After waiting for a while, he finally seized the gap between reloading, rushed forward, swung his tail, and swept the two policemen against the wall.He controlled the strength, which should have been just enough to knock the opponent unconscious.
But who knows, those people just shook their heads and got up from the ground again, as if they didn't feel any pain at all.Zhu Yun saw it in his eyes and suddenly understood: "This is not possible, we must find Zheng Gui!"
Taking advantage of Zhu Qiu's opportunity, he turned over and picked up a pistol, put it on his waist, got up and ran towards the depths of the passage.Behind him, there were sporadic gunshots again, but Zhu Qiu blocked them all.
The secret passage itself is not too long, but the upper and lower structures are more complicated.After running all the way, he has gradually approached the bottom.A faint light came out from the front, Zhu Yun knocked open the door, raised his gun flatly, and shouted sharply: "Don't move!"
The person standing in the room turned around, and it was indeed Zheng Gui.She was still the same as when we first met, with her ponytail tied casually and a smile on her delicate face.
"Mr. Zhu, you are here."
The room was dimly lit and furnished simply, so it could be seen that she was not alone.Apart from the one that Zheng Gui was holding, there were three or four figures curled up in the corner in a daze.
Their hair was disheveled, they were skinny, and they couldn't tell their gender at all. They just shivered and kept making strange sounds of "ahhh".
Zheng Gui pushed the person in his hand and took a step forward.The light illuminated her slender side face, and she showed regret: "Mr. Zhu, I thought that at least you would understand me."
Zhu Yun swept his eyes and easily saw the sharp|knife she was pressing on the victim's waist.The blade was forty centimeters long, and even under the dim light, it could be seen that the blade was shining brightly, and it was extremely sharp.
The blood groove is dark brown, and it seems that countless blood has clotted.
"Put down the knife." He said hoarsely, "I don't want to hurt you."
"Why?" She turned her head and rested her chin on the trembling hostage's shoulder, her face innocent. "Don't you think they shouldn't be punished?"
Zhu Yun paused for a moment, then said slowly: "I know... what they did to you. Even so, you shouldn't be the one to judge them."
"Killing them, did you feel happy for a moment?" Zhu Yun felt sore in his heart, and his fingers trembled slightly, "Sorry, I read your diary without authorization. I only saw your pain."
Zheng Gui didn't speak, and after a while, she sighed and smiled, "It's late." As soon as he finished speaking, the only light bulb in the room flickered and then went out suddenly.
"Zheng Gui!" Zhu Yun's eyes widened suddenly.
At the same time, there was the blunt sound of a sharp weapon breaking into a bone, and a hoarse scream of extreme horror.Everything happened in an instant. Some warm liquid suddenly sprayed out and splashed half of his body. Zhu Yun stood there blankly, and the thick bloody smell wafted out in the dark room.
The room returned to silence.After a while, he touched the flashlight with trembling hands, but because of the greasy blood, he didn't push the button several times.When the bright flashlight broke through the darkness again, the victim was seen with the knife stuck in the middle of his chest, and blood spattered everywhere.
Zhu Yun only felt the blood rushing to his head, subconsciously bent down, wanting to check the other person's breath.Before he reached out his hand to the other's nose, he fixed his eyes and saw Zheng Gui sitting not far away, kneeling with his head slightly lowered.
She was also splashed with blood.
Zhu Yun thought it was the victim's blood at first, until the flashlight moved up, revealing the bloody wound on her chest - the fatal knife not only pierced the hostage's heart, but also penetrated into her own chest.
The emaciated hostage was already dead, but Zheng Gui was still breathing heavily.Zhu Yun threw away the gun, his hands trembling, subconsciously wanting to hold her wound.But she was determined to die, the stab was deep and ruthless, and the blood rushed out through the fingers, and she couldn't hold it back.
Zhu Yun was at a loss, groping to pick her up, but accidentally touched a hidden button by the wall.Just hearing the rumbling sound, the wall behind him suddenly opened, revealing a gap.
Pushing open the secret door, I saw that the sky outside was completely dark, and the moonlight came in softly.Zhu Yun squinted his eyes, only to realize that the door was facing the road, apparently on the outer wall of the orphanage.
The second secret passage actually has two entrances and exits.It passes through the ground and directly connects to the outside of the wall.This was supposed to be a way of escape, but I don't know how many people were trapped to death.
Zhu Yun couldn't care less about emotion, leaned over and picked up Zheng Gui's thin body, and ran out in a hurry.His mobile phone was lost in the previous chaotic fight, but depending on the time, the police support should have arrived, if they can be found...
"Zhu Yun?"
He turned his head, only to see Lu Guangchen standing alone by the side of the road, looking at him suspiciously.Zhu Yun breathed a sigh of relief, and said anxiously: "She was injured, you..."
Lu Guangchen nodded, and walked towards him across the road: "My car is parked outside, I have to take her to the hospital quickly."
Seeing him coming in a hurry, something flashed in Zhu Yun's mind, and he took a step back suddenly: "Don't come over!"
Lu Guangchen stopped in his tracks and frowned puzzledly: "What's wrong?"
"You..." Zhu Yun couldn't say anything, but felt something was wrong intuitively.
His thoughts changed, if it is said that Gao Qiao's death was tricked by "Poison Fang", besides the Spider Girl, there must be another person in control of the overall situation.
For a long time, there was only one person who followed them!
Zhu Yun narrowed his eyes, no matter at the construction site at first or later investigations, the people in front of him always seemed to deliberately mislead them.
[The police do not know the identity of the victim...]
No, he should have gotten the information a long time ago, but deliberately concealed it.And Section Chief Lin began to become strange after he had a personal relationship with Lu Guangchen.
Originally thought Section Chief Lin was the ghost, but from this point of view, Lu Guangchen could also easily obtain Lao Wang's travel records by controlling him.But at this time, he appeared alone at the back door of the orphanage, and the timing was too coincidental... A thread of clues surfaced, and Zhu Yun's heart gradually sank.
Zhu Yun said hoarsely, "Who are you?"
"What are you talking about?" Lu Guangchen's face was still handsome, and the corners of his well-defined lips were slightly raised under the moonlight, with a playful smile, "Zhu Yun, I'm Lu Guangchen."
He took a step forward lightly, and the leisurely demeanor around him faded away, exuding an indescribable smell of blood.
"Come on, give her to me." Lu Guangchen smiled, "I won't hurt you. At least... not now."
Zhu Yun pursed her lips and silently refused.The little black dragon in the backpack became restless, obviously feeling a very threatening aura.
"She's a murderer. Why, do you want to protect her?" Lu Guangchen pointed behind Zhu Yun, "If I tell you, it's not just criminals who were killed by her there..."
"Killing is addictive. If you eat the marrow and taste, you can't stop. It's a pity that she passed out, otherwise you can ask yourself if she has hurt innocent people."
Lu Guangchen spread his hands: "Give her to me."
Zhu Yun still didn't move, and said coldly: "Even so, it's not your turn to uphold justice."
Most of the bones in the secret passage came from ten years ago, and the rest were just imprisoned by Zheng Gui. What stimulated her to stain her hands with blood again and killed Gao Qiao out of control.Zhu Yun originally thought it was the spider girl who had escaped from the prison, but now it seems that she is also inseparable from the person in front of her.
The two were separated by a distance of ten meters, looking at each other under the bright moonlight.Lu Guangchen seemed to have become a complete stranger, or in other words, he finally took off the mask that concealed his identity.
He no longer tried to persuade Zhu Yun, his cold eyes fell directly on Zheng Gui, like a beast staring at his prey.
Zhu Yun subconsciously took a step back, and at the same time, Lu Guangchen also moved, his figure was extremely fast, and he was in front of him in an instant.Zhu Yun's pupils dilated slightly, and a black shadow suddenly flashed past, knocked Lu Guangchen down, and rolled up a cloud of dust.
The strength of the two was so great that even the concrete road broke a crack.Zhu Yun saw that it was Zhu Qiu who came. He had fully recovered to his original size, and he let out a threatening growl from his throat.
Lu Guangchen still maintained his human form, and he didn't show his greatest strength, but he seemed to be able to easily push the little lizard aside with one hand, and continued to walk in the direction of Zhu Yun.
Zhu Qiu rolled on the ground and pounced on Lu Guangchen again.With an impatient face, he turned his head to block the attack, pinched the little lizard's front paws with iron-like hands, and closed his fingers mercilessly.
Accompanied by the sound of bones breaking, the huge body of the lizard rolled painfully on the ground.In the smoke and dust all over the floor, an arm suddenly stretched out, blocking Lu Guangchen's attack.
@无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City
"Huh?" Lu Guangchen's voice seemed a little surprised.
The dust cleared, and Bai was standing tall, with thin lips tightly pursed, and his usually gentle blue eyes were like the frozen sea, losing all warmth.
"Long time no see." The corner of Lu Guangchen's lips scratched a piece of skin, he stretched out the tip of his tongue to lick away the blood line, looking very evil, "Do you remember me?"
Bai didn't say a word. Behind him, Zhu Yun looked up at the two of them, his fingers holding the potion were still trembling.
"I thought," Lu Guangchen narrowed his eyes, "you would hide forever, my dear...Bai?" His tone was raised, with a hint of teasing.
"Why, is that the person you chose?"
Bai's answer was an attack as swift as thunder, and smoke and dust rose up one after another, and the two of them fought to the other end of the street almost instantly.
Lu Guangchen seemed to have the upper hand.He took a few steps back and coughed out a mouthful of blood: "I'm really not used to fighting with this body."
"Trash." Bai cold said coldly.
"Oh," Lu Guangchen couldn't help laughing, "You haven't grown up for hundreds of years, so you don't seem to have the right to criticize me?" go away.
"That's all for today. Next time, I will come to you in person."
Zhu Yun stayed behind, Bai did not pursue, and watched Lu Guangchen's figure disappear into the depths of the night sky.
"Don't be afraid." Bai gently wiped off the blood on Zhu Yun's face, "It's all right." The ice and snow in his eyes gradually melted and returned to a gentle arc. Wan Xu, there is no way to talk about it.
Zheng Gui, who was lying on the ground, suddenly let out a violent cough, and blood foam continuously overflowed from the corners of her lips.Zhu Yun came back to his senses and wanted to hug her, but found that her whole body was cold, and sticky blood had pooled under her body.
His hands were shaking, and he couldn't exert any strength, so he looked to Bai beside him for help.
"It's too late." Bai said softly.
Zheng Gui kept coughing up blood, struggled to open his eyes, grabbed Zhu Yun's arm with all his blood, and led him to his pocket.
She was speechless, but looked at Zhu Yun earnestly.Following her strength, Zhu Yun pulled out a thin old photo from inside. The back of the photo was spattered with blood, but the front was still clear.
In addition to the young Zheng Gui, there is also a very handsome man.He seemed to be of foreign descent, tall and tall, with blue eyes and a soft smile.
In the photo, Zheng Gui looked sideways at him, eyes full of nostalgia and longing.The man lowered his head slightly, as if he was listening to what she said, with a smile on his lips—like a pair of lingering lovers.
Zheng Gui pursed her lips, and Zhu Yun moved closer to her lips, only to realize that she had uttered a name: "Lu... Ying."
Hearing this name, Bai's expression suddenly changed, and the whistling wind and snow seemed to gather in his eyes.He took the photo that Zhu Yun had been holding in his hand all this time, and after glancing at it, his complexion became very sad.
With mixed feelings in Zhu Yun's heart, he reluctantly smiled at the two of them: "Go, let's go to the archives room."
Luo Xu seemed hesitant to speak, but seeing Zhu Yun's face, he didn't ask any further questions, and nodded: "Then go to the archives room first."
When going upstairs, Luo Xu and Zhu Qiu walked in front, while Zhu Yun was left behind with complicated thoughts.The gloomy small western-style building is very cramped, and the moonlight is bright, casting a small shadow from the high window, printed on the peeling wall, lonely and far away.
Zhu Yun took a look, and suddenly felt a moist touch from the corner of his lips.Looking down, I saw the little black dragon grabbing his front with two soft paws, trying to raise his neck to get closer to him, his waxy blue eyes were full of worry.
He laughed dumbfounded, hugged it higher, and kissed the little wings.
"Tell me," Zhu Yun muttered, "is what we are doing really right?" He can already conclude that Zheng Gui is inseparable from the whole thing, and even she herself may be the real culprit.But can what she did be counted as justice?
The file room was pried open again, and Luo Xu led the two of them inside.Passing through rows of bookshelves, Zhu Yun suddenly stopped, turned aside, and reached out to take down an old file book.Compared with the last time I came, it didn't even change its position in the slightest.
Turning directly to the last page, the word "Zheng Gui" is particularly glaring.Looking at the group photo on the previous page, the 16-year-old Zheng Gui has her hair cut very short, wearing an old shirt that has been washed white, and there is no expression on her indifferent and delicate face. recognize her.
Zhu Yun smiled wryly. This document is still here, which just shows that her sudden appearance in the archives room that night was not to destroy the evidence at all. She was probably worried that they would accidentally discover the secret passage hidden in the archives room.
"Brother Yun! Brother Luo!" The little lizard exclaimed not far away.
Zhu Yun closed the old booklet, closed his eyes, collected his thoughts, turned around and walked to his place.
Moving away the heavy display cabinet, a swirling dust was raised, revealing a heavy iron door behind it.At the time of the initial design, there might be some mechanism hidden, but Zhu Qiu didn't have the patience to look for it at all, and directly broke through violently, lifting the entire display case.
"There is a lock on the door." Zhu Yun touched it, and when he turned his head, he saw the little lizard eager to try, as if he really wanted to remove the door too.
Zhu Yun: "..." Could this contestant please give a little dignity to the puzzle-solving session?
Luo Xu couldn't stand it anymore, and walked forward, took out a whole set of tools, squatted down and began to toss around.Zhu Yun enthusiastically illuminated him, but not long after, Luo Xu turned around, looking a little embarrassed.
Zhu Yun asked with concern, "Why, isn't it bright enough?"
Luo Xu paused for a moment, then tentatively said, "Can you turn it off? It's too bright, it hurts my eyes."
Looking at his ever-shrinking vertical pupils, Zhu Yun was silent and put away the flashlight—he often forgot that this is not an ordinary person!
Once again, only the moonlight was left in the room, Luo Xu was satisfied, and his subordinates continued to work.Bored, Zhu Yun moved two steps to the side, opened a corner of the curtain, and suddenly noticed a person standing in the shadow of the whirling trees outside the window.
"Damn it?" He thought he had made a mistake, rubbed his eyes and looked again, only to find that the shadow was still there.
The man was motionless, wearing a black hoodie, looking up at the second floor, his appearance was unclear.Zhu Yun turned around and wanted to ask Zhu Qiu, who had better night vision, to come over and take a look, but in the end, he disappeared in such a flash of magic.
His heart beat faster, worried that the man had entered the building, so he hurriedly told the two of them.Unexpectedly, Zhu Qiu listened on the ground holding his breath, shook his head and said that there were only three of them in the room.
"I can even hear my heartbeat clearly." Zhu Qiuxiao looked quite proud, "Don't worry, Brother Yun, he must have been scared away."
While talking, there was a muffled trembling "squeak" sound, and the rusty iron door was pulled open by Luo Xu.
The secret passage exposed was pitch black, Zhu Yun couldn't see anything clearly, but he could catch a glimpse of Luo Xu's unusually dignified expression.When the dust settled, a faint rancid smell gradually diffused, and even Zhu Yun felt something was wrong.
He boldly called out, "Is anyone there?"
An echo came from afar, but only the gloomy wind in his ears answered him.Luo Xu was guarding the door, and Zhu Qiu tried to walk a few steps in, only to hear a click, as if he had kicked something fragile.
Zhu Yun finally found the flashlight again, turned it on, and flicked it in briefly, and saw that what Zhu Qiu was stepping on was a pile of white bones.Judging by the size and shape, and appearing in this kind of place again, I'm afraid it can't be some animal bone.
Zhu Yun only felt that his scalp was numb, and hurriedly called Zhu Qiu to come out—this was just the entrance of the secret passage, and if he walked deeper, there might be more bones, and the increasingly strong smell of decay permeated his nose, which made people feel sick. Feeling faintly nauseous.
Luo Xu was not afraid at all, and weighed the tools in his hand: "What should we do now? Squat inside and wait for the rabbit?"
Zhu Yun: "..."
Zhu Qiu was also very excited. After squatting down to check, he said, "It probably couldn't fit here, so I buried it in the sandpit at the back? It's quite convenient."
Zhu Yun silently took out the phone: "Call the police."
The police car came roaring, the sleeping orphanage was awakened, the lights were turned on one by one, and the corridor was full of sleepy children.
Zhu Yun was standing outside the old school building, wrapped in a coat, and then belatedly got goose bumps all over his body.The policemen who came out of the building also looked very ugly. There were too many bones in the secret passage, many of them were bone-shattered, and several big bags couldn't fit them.
Suddenly, Zhu Yun saw an acquaintance sharply: "Officer Lu?"
Lu Guangchen was tilting his head and talking to someone in a low voice, when he heard the voice, he turned his head and looked surprised: "Mr. Zhu? Are you here too?"
Zhu Yun was also very surprised, Lu Guangchen was obviously a policeman in City S, why did he work across cities?Lu Guangchen explained that they later found out the identity of the female corpse through the Internet, so as a cooperative unit, they launched a cross-city hunt and investigation.
"I didn't expect that," Lu Guangchen touched his chin, "I just arrived in the afternoon, and I planned to come here tomorrow to investigate, who knows that I saved time."
With Lu Guangchen's guarantee, the three of Zhu Yun were freed from suspicion. The police station left a few people on duty, and the others rushed back to the unit overnight, taking away the dean and some teachers.After being busy for most of the night, the noisy orphanage gradually quieted down.
Zheng Gui was also on the investigation list. Before leaving, she leaned on the roof of the police car, turned her head and glanced, and accurately found Zhu Yun from the crowd.Across the chaotic scene, the two looked at each other from a distance, and Zhu Yun felt that her eyes were very calm and her expression was indifferent, as if she had finally coincided with the girl in the photo.
She only glanced at it, then turned her eyes away as if nothing had happened, lowered her head and sat in the car.
Zhu Yun rubbed the center of his brows wearily, and was about to go back to rest, only to find that there were still many children standing on the second floor of the living area. They looked down from the corridor with curious faces.The teachers were too busy to take care of themselves, so naturally no one took them back to sleep.
@无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City
Zhu Yun and others and several policemen had no choice but to take on the responsibility of the teachers and drive them back to the dormitory one by one to appease them.The children were very well-behaved, and they were not in distress, and they were taken back to the dormitory quietly.
This is Zhu Yun's first visit to the place where the children live.He looked around, only to find that the windows here are bright and clean, much better than the old school building.
Several police officers finished the resettlement work and called Zhu Yun to leave together.Zhu Yun responded, walked out of the room, and suddenly found a soft little ball rolling out of the shadow at the end of the corridor.
Is it the missing child?He picked up the ball and walked a few steps towards the dimly lit water room.It was nearly five o'clock in the morning, and the morning sun suddenly appeared on the horizon, revealing a rosy light.
"Xiao Ran?" Zhu Yun saw the little girl standing by the wall, and was taken aback, "Aren't you going to sleep?"
Xiao Ran raised her head, her big beautiful eyes revealed complex gazes that did not match her age.She gestured and handed him something.Zhu Yun looked down, only to find that it was the rabbit doll she had always regarded as a treasure.
She opened her mouth and gestured several times, looking a little anxious.
Zhu Yun didn't understand sign language, but looking at her eyes, he squatted down and asked tentatively, "Give it to me?"
Xiaoran smiled slightly, nodded, and stuffed the worn-out rabbit into his hand.Zhu Yun took the rabbit and weighed it, only to realize that his previous feeling was correct. The doll was heavy, as if it had been filled with sand.
Before he could ask, Xiao Ran turned around and ran away.
Zhu Yun hugged the rabbit and returned to the faculty dormitory full of doubts. Although the case was half solved, he always felt uneasy.
As Luo Xu expected, a secret passage was also found in the old dormitory building, but there were no bones inside, so only two police officers were sent on duty, and some employees were still sleeping inside.Zhu Yun bypassed Xie Ming, who was dozing on a chair, and opened the door to enter his room.
Luo Xu didn't sleep yet, frowning and lying on the table writing and drawing.
"What's wrong?" Zhu Yun said.
"Look, the entrance found in the building is in the water room." Luo Xu said, "I just walked around, but some details are not right."
"Huh?" Zhu Yun tucked the quilt for Zhu Qiu who was sleeping on his back, and turned to look at the drawings on the table.
Luo Xu frowned: "It's just my guess. There may be more than one secret passage in this building." He knocked on the table, thoughtful: "If there is another entrance, where will it be hidden?"
Zhu Yun said: "Let the police conduct a thorough investigation after dawn. They are guarding downstairs now."
Several people rested separately, and most of the teachers under investigation were released the next afternoon.Zhu Yun went downstairs to chat with the changing policeman, but he heard a little policeman scratching his head and saying, "The dean is so awesome, and he even confessed to other places where the corpses are hidden. The branch went to dig overnight and found the corpses , there must be at least a dozen victims, this case has shocked even the province."
Zhu Yun was surprised: "Who are you talking about? Dean?"
The little policeman nodded and said yes, saying that the dean had confessed to all the charges last night, with a good attitude of admitting his mistakes, and he couldn't see that he was such a mad murderer at all.
Zhu Yun: "Sorry, I..." His mind was a little confused, how could he be the dean?Obviously the insider should be Zheng Gui.He collected himself and continued to ask about Zheng Gui's situation.
Little policeman: "Teacher Zheng? I don't know. It seems that the criminal police detachment has identified the suspect as the dean. Haven't all the other teachers been released?"
No, Zhu Yun remembered clearly that among the teachers brought back by the police car, there was no Zheng Gui at all.He bid farewell to the police on duty in a hurry, and asked several teachers who came back together, but no one knew where Zheng Gui had gone.
He vaguely felt something was wrong, turned around and went upstairs, but bumped into Luo Xu.
"I was looking for you." Luo Xu hurriedly said, "Who gave this to you?" He opened his palm, revealing a diary and several cassettes.
Zhu Yun was also stunned: "What is this? Where did you come from?"
Zhu Qiu poked his head out from the room and waved the torn doll in his hand. The belly of the rabbit doll was flattened. Maybe these things were put there before.
"This... Xiaoran gave it to me." Zhu Yun murmured, "What's written in it?"
Luo Xu's face was a bit complicated, and he only said to let him see for himself.
Zheng Gui's old diary is not thick, and the words are simple, but it outlines a chilling past.Zhu Yun hurriedly read on, only to find that Hu Guangping's so-called love partner is Zheng Gui, who is only 15 years old.
She hated and was afraid, but she didn't know how to refuse. Hu Guangping even forced her to take many photos.He became more and more courageous, and often took Zheng Gui to his home, until one day, Xu Chengjie, who came to return the newspaper clippings, ran into the two of them.
Xu Chengjie and Zheng Gui are brothers and sisters in love, and immediately clashed with Hu Guangping, but he was accidentally cut by Hu's mother who heard the sound.Hu Guangping did not take Xu Chengjie for treatment because he was afraid of being exposed, but put him in the "punishment room" after hastily bandaging him.
Xu Chengjie was not the only child in confinement, but unfortunately, one of them suffered from a severe and fatal respiratory infectious disease.
It was too late when it was discovered. In a panic, in order to isolate the source of infection and conceal the truth about child abuse in the orphanage, the dean at the time discussed with several teachers and locked the "punishment room" completely.
It is not known whether Xu Chengjie and the other three children died of disease or lack of water and hunger. Afterwards, the director led people in isolation suits to dispose of their bodies in private.However, under the almost mortal circumstances, a child disappeared.
They searched all over the room, but failed to find the missing child, so they had to give up.
Zhu Yun felt cold all over her body: "The 'punishment room' she mentioned is..."
"According to her description, it should be a secret passage." Luo Xu said, "As for the missing child..."
Zhu Yun and he looked at each other, and lost his voice: "Spider girl?!"
Not every hybrid knows their identity, and there are many hybrids like Spider Girl who lost their parents before they could remember.They maintained their human form since childhood and mixed in human society.
The spider girl grew up in the orphanage, and probably thought she was an ordinary human being until she awakened as a spider in a secret passage and escaped the catastrophe.From that moment on, she broke away from the track of being a "human", changed her appearance, and completely got rid of the shackles of the orphanage.
The first half of the diary is about Zheng Gui's past, and the second half records her bloody revenge with the help of others.
Luo Xu's face was gloomy, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Zhu Yun said dryly: "If it's really the spider girl, then it's probably not surprising that she hates humans so much, and even added 'fangs' later."
Luo Xu glanced at him, and said slowly: "No, the crime of killing an innocent person will not be weakened by half because the murderer was a victim." He paused, lowered his gaze, and said in a low voice: "I We will definitely find her and... kill her."
Zhu Yun was silent and did not speak.
Zhu Qiu found a tape recorder from nowhere, and stuffed some old tapes into it.After the rustling sound, gasps of extreme fear and Zheng Gui's laughing voice began to be heard from the tape.
"Hey, are you pleading guilty?"
The person being interrogated appeared to have a total mental breakdown, sobbing and confessing to the crimes he had committed.There is more than one person in a tape, and Zheng Gui recorded at least a dozen recordings.With the exception of sexual assault, most are acts of punishment for abuse.I don't know what she did at that time, the other party almost talked like beans in a bamboo tube.
Zhu Yun pressed pause after listening halfway through. The truth revealed by those people was shocking, and it was unbearable to listen to it again.
Luo Xu put away the information and said calmly: "Let's go, we have to find the last secret passage."
Zhu Yun nodded: "Okay. Wait a minute, I will hand over these materials to the police first." On the way downstairs, Zhu Yun hesitated. These materials may not be used as evidence of child abuse, but they must prove that Zheng Gui is illegal| charges of imprisonment.
Although I don't know why the new dean is willing to take the blame for her, but if there are these materials, Zheng Gui will definitely not be able to escape the punishment of the law.
@无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City
Zhu Yun knew in his heart that the so-called crime cannot be justified for reasonable reasons.However, when he was really faced with a choice, he couldn't help hesitating.
Was everything Zheng Gui did wrong?If he had chosen to hand it over to the police, the murderer might not have received the punishment he deserved.
"Treat the person in the same way as the person", what should be done when the law cannot appease the anger?
Zhu Yun was a little at a loss, in fact, he didn't know what decision he would make if he was in such a situation.Just as he was thinking, he had already reached the first floor, but the two policemen who were supposed to be on duty were not in the duty room.
He turned around and found that several police cars were still parked at the door, but the police officers on duty in various places were gone.
It was almost dusk at this time, and the setting sun like salted egg yolk was hanging far away in the sky. It should be a quiet beauty, but it made his heart beat.
Zhu Yun quickly returned to the dormitory, saw that Luo Xu and Zhu Qiu were still there, he was relieved, and described what he saw.Luo Xu frowned: "Be careful, she might be back."
Zhu Yun nodded and called the police again. The other party said that they would send a new duty officer to check as soon as possible.
Putting down the phone, he said in confusion: "Zheng Gui has successfully escaped from the control of the police, why should he take risks? Unless..." A flash of light suddenly flashed in his mind, and he stood up abruptly: "Damn it!"
"how?"
"I think...there may be someone alive." Zhu Yun walked around the room, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case. "If she comes back, there is only one reason, and that is to kill someone."
Luo Xu also stood up: "Another secret passage."
"If she has sneaked back to the orphanage, I'm afraid we don't have enough time to find it slowly." Zhu Yun spread out the blueprint on the table and said anxiously, "Where is the secret passage? Do you have any clues?"
Luo Xu said: "The public area has been turned upside down. If there are secret passages, they can only be hidden in the dormitory."
"Dormitory, dormitory..." Zhu Yun murmured, and suddenly stopped, "I know!" He hurried out, "It's Xie Ming's room!"
Xie Ming didn't dare to go back to the room to sleep, maybe it was because she knew the entrance was in her room.As an old employee of the orphanage, she must know the entrance to the "punishment room".I don't know why Zheng Gui didn't take revenge on her, but the tragic situation of her colleagues was enough to scare her unconscious.
Fear is also a kind of torture. Zheng Gui forced her to stay in the orphanage, but she never dared to sleep at the entrance, so she could only sit at the door every night.
Time was running out, so Zhu Qiu kicked open the door.Xie Ming's room was empty, only a quilt and a few pieces of clothing.Before they had time to investigate carefully, they moved all the furniture against the wall away.
The familiar iron door appeared behind the large wardrobe, and there were obvious traces of a switch, and someone might have already entered it first.It was too late to adjust the password, and several people looked at each other. Zhu Qiu immediately grabbed the doorknob with his hands, stepped on the wall with his right foot, and with a low shout, he dragged the iron door slightly out of shape, and then pulled out a piece of paper that was as wide as one person. gap.
"Go." Luo Xu stepped in first.
They started running in the dark secret passage, and before they had gone far, they heard a chuckle.This voice was very familiar to Zhu Yun, and Luo Xu's eyebrows twitched, and he also realized: "Spider Girl."
After being called to reveal her identity, a thin little girl with twin ponytails slowly turned out from the shadows in the corner.All of a sudden, it turned into a huge mottled spider, with a girl's face slowly revealed in the terrifying thick black chelicerae.
She spit out words and hissed: "Go back, I won't let you go."
Bai once said that the spider girl is a mutated hybrid, and her combat power can be regarded as the front row within the "Venom" organization.When Zhu Yun was worried, Luo Xu sneered, and the prototype appeared.
Compared to the last time we dealt with the old lady, this time the giant snake was much bigger, and its entrenched body almost filled the entire tunnel.He didn't say much, twisted his huge body, stepped forward like lightning, and tightly entangled the spider.
Spider Girl's eight legs worked together to break free, drawing a few scars on the surface of the giant snake's scales, but she also staggered back a step.The first confrontation can be regarded as evenly matched.
Luo Xu didn't stop attacking, changed the angle, and swooped over again, rolling the spider girl into a dark corner.
"Run." Zhu Qiu grabbed Zhu Yun's hand suddenly, and took advantage of this gap to drag him across the corner.
Zhu Qiu seemed to have sensed something, and was circling around the dark corridor at a high speed, with a clear goal.Turning a corner again, Zhu Yun could only hear his own rapid breathing.Suddenly, a strong force came, and he was thrown to the ground, and then a fire suddenly lit up in the darkness.
Zhu Qiu also changed back to his original form, covering him in a protective posture.Amidst the violent noise, Zhu Yun looked through the gap and saw several uniformed police officers raising their guns and firing. The bullets could not penetrate the lizard's hard outer armor, but the bullets bounced repeatedly in the narrow corridor. Very dangerous.
He looked closely, but recognized a policeman who had chatted with him downstairs.The opponent was expressionless and kept pulling the trigger, as if he didn't recognize him.His movements were stiff and unnatural, like a marionette, which instantly reminded Zhu Yun of the dean—it should be Zheng Gui who used some means to control others.
Zhu Qiu protected Zhu Yun from getting away. After waiting for a while, he finally seized the gap between reloading, rushed forward, swung his tail, and swept the two policemen against the wall.He controlled the strength, which should have been just enough to knock the opponent unconscious.
But who knows, those people just shook their heads and got up from the ground again, as if they didn't feel any pain at all.Zhu Yun saw it in his eyes and suddenly understood: "This is not possible, we must find Zheng Gui!"
Taking advantage of Zhu Qiu's opportunity, he turned over and picked up a pistol, put it on his waist, got up and ran towards the depths of the passage.Behind him, there were sporadic gunshots again, but Zhu Qiu blocked them all.
The secret passage itself is not too long, but the upper and lower structures are more complicated.After running all the way, he has gradually approached the bottom.A faint light came out from the front, Zhu Yun knocked open the door, raised his gun flatly, and shouted sharply: "Don't move!"
The person standing in the room turned around, and it was indeed Zheng Gui.She was still the same as when we first met, with her ponytail tied casually and a smile on her delicate face.
"Mr. Zhu, you are here."
The room was dimly lit and furnished simply, so it could be seen that she was not alone.Apart from the one that Zheng Gui was holding, there were three or four figures curled up in the corner in a daze.
Their hair was disheveled, they were skinny, and they couldn't tell their gender at all. They just shivered and kept making strange sounds of "ahhh".
Zheng Gui pushed the person in his hand and took a step forward.The light illuminated her slender side face, and she showed regret: "Mr. Zhu, I thought that at least you would understand me."
Zhu Yun swept his eyes and easily saw the sharp|knife she was pressing on the victim's waist.The blade was forty centimeters long, and even under the dim light, it could be seen that the blade was shining brightly, and it was extremely sharp.
The blood groove is dark brown, and it seems that countless blood has clotted.
"Put down the knife." He said hoarsely, "I don't want to hurt you."
"Why?" She turned her head and rested her chin on the trembling hostage's shoulder, her face innocent. "Don't you think they shouldn't be punished?"
Zhu Yun paused for a moment, then said slowly: "I know... what they did to you. Even so, you shouldn't be the one to judge them."
"Killing them, did you feel happy for a moment?" Zhu Yun felt sore in his heart, and his fingers trembled slightly, "Sorry, I read your diary without authorization. I only saw your pain."
Zheng Gui didn't speak, and after a while, she sighed and smiled, "It's late." As soon as he finished speaking, the only light bulb in the room flickered and then went out suddenly.
"Zheng Gui!" Zhu Yun's eyes widened suddenly.
At the same time, there was the blunt sound of a sharp weapon breaking into a bone, and a hoarse scream of extreme horror.Everything happened in an instant. Some warm liquid suddenly sprayed out and splashed half of his body. Zhu Yun stood there blankly, and the thick bloody smell wafted out in the dark room.
The room returned to silence.After a while, he touched the flashlight with trembling hands, but because of the greasy blood, he didn't push the button several times.When the bright flashlight broke through the darkness again, the victim was seen with the knife stuck in the middle of his chest, and blood spattered everywhere.
Zhu Yun only felt the blood rushing to his head, subconsciously bent down, wanting to check the other person's breath.Before he reached out his hand to the other's nose, he fixed his eyes and saw Zheng Gui sitting not far away, kneeling with his head slightly lowered.
She was also splashed with blood.
Zhu Yun thought it was the victim's blood at first, until the flashlight moved up, revealing the bloody wound on her chest - the fatal knife not only pierced the hostage's heart, but also penetrated into her own chest.
The emaciated hostage was already dead, but Zheng Gui was still breathing heavily.Zhu Yun threw away the gun, his hands trembling, subconsciously wanting to hold her wound.But she was determined to die, the stab was deep and ruthless, and the blood rushed out through the fingers, and she couldn't hold it back.
Zhu Yun was at a loss, groping to pick her up, but accidentally touched a hidden button by the wall.Just hearing the rumbling sound, the wall behind him suddenly opened, revealing a gap.
Pushing open the secret door, I saw that the sky outside was completely dark, and the moonlight came in softly.Zhu Yun squinted his eyes, only to realize that the door was facing the road, apparently on the outer wall of the orphanage.
The second secret passage actually has two entrances and exits.It passes through the ground and directly connects to the outside of the wall.This was supposed to be a way of escape, but I don't know how many people were trapped to death.
Zhu Yun couldn't care less about emotion, leaned over and picked up Zheng Gui's thin body, and ran out in a hurry.His mobile phone was lost in the previous chaotic fight, but depending on the time, the police support should have arrived, if they can be found...
"Zhu Yun?"
He turned his head, only to see Lu Guangchen standing alone by the side of the road, looking at him suspiciously.Zhu Yun breathed a sigh of relief, and said anxiously: "She was injured, you..."
Lu Guangchen nodded, and walked towards him across the road: "My car is parked outside, I have to take her to the hospital quickly."
Seeing him coming in a hurry, something flashed in Zhu Yun's mind, and he took a step back suddenly: "Don't come over!"
Lu Guangchen stopped in his tracks and frowned puzzledly: "What's wrong?"
"You..." Zhu Yun couldn't say anything, but felt something was wrong intuitively.
His thoughts changed, if it is said that Gao Qiao's death was tricked by "Poison Fang", besides the Spider Girl, there must be another person in control of the overall situation.
For a long time, there was only one person who followed them!
Zhu Yun narrowed his eyes, no matter at the construction site at first or later investigations, the people in front of him always seemed to deliberately mislead them.
[The police do not know the identity of the victim...]
No, he should have gotten the information a long time ago, but deliberately concealed it.And Section Chief Lin began to become strange after he had a personal relationship with Lu Guangchen.
Originally thought Section Chief Lin was the ghost, but from this point of view, Lu Guangchen could also easily obtain Lao Wang's travel records by controlling him.But at this time, he appeared alone at the back door of the orphanage, and the timing was too coincidental... A thread of clues surfaced, and Zhu Yun's heart gradually sank.
Zhu Yun said hoarsely, "Who are you?"
"What are you talking about?" Lu Guangchen's face was still handsome, and the corners of his well-defined lips were slightly raised under the moonlight, with a playful smile, "Zhu Yun, I'm Lu Guangchen."
He took a step forward lightly, and the leisurely demeanor around him faded away, exuding an indescribable smell of blood.
"Come on, give her to me." Lu Guangchen smiled, "I won't hurt you. At least... not now."
Zhu Yun pursed her lips and silently refused.The little black dragon in the backpack became restless, obviously feeling a very threatening aura.
"She's a murderer. Why, do you want to protect her?" Lu Guangchen pointed behind Zhu Yun, "If I tell you, it's not just criminals who were killed by her there..."
"Killing is addictive. If you eat the marrow and taste, you can't stop. It's a pity that she passed out, otherwise you can ask yourself if she has hurt innocent people."
Lu Guangchen spread his hands: "Give her to me."
Zhu Yun still didn't move, and said coldly: "Even so, it's not your turn to uphold justice."
Most of the bones in the secret passage came from ten years ago, and the rest were just imprisoned by Zheng Gui. What stimulated her to stain her hands with blood again and killed Gao Qiao out of control.Zhu Yun originally thought it was the spider girl who had escaped from the prison, but now it seems that she is also inseparable from the person in front of her.
The two were separated by a distance of ten meters, looking at each other under the bright moonlight.Lu Guangchen seemed to have become a complete stranger, or in other words, he finally took off the mask that concealed his identity.
He no longer tried to persuade Zhu Yun, his cold eyes fell directly on Zheng Gui, like a beast staring at his prey.
Zhu Yun subconsciously took a step back, and at the same time, Lu Guangchen also moved, his figure was extremely fast, and he was in front of him in an instant.Zhu Yun's pupils dilated slightly, and a black shadow suddenly flashed past, knocked Lu Guangchen down, and rolled up a cloud of dust.
The strength of the two was so great that even the concrete road broke a crack.Zhu Yun saw that it was Zhu Qiu who came. He had fully recovered to his original size, and he let out a threatening growl from his throat.
Lu Guangchen still maintained his human form, and he didn't show his greatest strength, but he seemed to be able to easily push the little lizard aside with one hand, and continued to walk in the direction of Zhu Yun.
Zhu Qiu rolled on the ground and pounced on Lu Guangchen again.With an impatient face, he turned his head to block the attack, pinched the little lizard's front paws with iron-like hands, and closed his fingers mercilessly.
Accompanied by the sound of bones breaking, the huge body of the lizard rolled painfully on the ground.In the smoke and dust all over the floor, an arm suddenly stretched out, blocking Lu Guangchen's attack.
@无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City
"Huh?" Lu Guangchen's voice seemed a little surprised.
The dust cleared, and Bai was standing tall, with thin lips tightly pursed, and his usually gentle blue eyes were like the frozen sea, losing all warmth.
"Long time no see." The corner of Lu Guangchen's lips scratched a piece of skin, he stretched out the tip of his tongue to lick away the blood line, looking very evil, "Do you remember me?"
Bai didn't say a word. Behind him, Zhu Yun looked up at the two of them, his fingers holding the potion were still trembling.
"I thought," Lu Guangchen narrowed his eyes, "you would hide forever, my dear...Bai?" His tone was raised, with a hint of teasing.
"Why, is that the person you chose?"
Bai's answer was an attack as swift as thunder, and smoke and dust rose up one after another, and the two of them fought to the other end of the street almost instantly.
Lu Guangchen seemed to have the upper hand.He took a few steps back and coughed out a mouthful of blood: "I'm really not used to fighting with this body."
"Trash." Bai cold said coldly.
"Oh," Lu Guangchen couldn't help laughing, "You haven't grown up for hundreds of years, so you don't seem to have the right to criticize me?" go away.
"That's all for today. Next time, I will come to you in person."
Zhu Yun stayed behind, Bai did not pursue, and watched Lu Guangchen's figure disappear into the depths of the night sky.
"Don't be afraid." Bai gently wiped off the blood on Zhu Yun's face, "It's all right." The ice and snow in his eyes gradually melted and returned to a gentle arc. Wan Xu, there is no way to talk about it.
Zheng Gui, who was lying on the ground, suddenly let out a violent cough, and blood foam continuously overflowed from the corners of her lips.Zhu Yun came back to his senses and wanted to hug her, but found that her whole body was cold, and sticky blood had pooled under her body.
His hands were shaking, and he couldn't exert any strength, so he looked to Bai beside him for help.
"It's too late." Bai said softly.
Zheng Gui kept coughing up blood, struggled to open his eyes, grabbed Zhu Yun's arm with all his blood, and led him to his pocket.
She was speechless, but looked at Zhu Yun earnestly.Following her strength, Zhu Yun pulled out a thin old photo from inside. The back of the photo was spattered with blood, but the front was still clear.
In addition to the young Zheng Gui, there is also a very handsome man.He seemed to be of foreign descent, tall and tall, with blue eyes and a soft smile.
In the photo, Zheng Gui looked sideways at him, eyes full of nostalgia and longing.The man lowered his head slightly, as if he was listening to what she said, with a smile on his lips—like a pair of lingering lovers.
Zheng Gui pursed her lips, and Zhu Yun moved closer to her lips, only to realize that she had uttered a name: "Lu... Ying."
Hearing this name, Bai's expression suddenly changed, and the whistling wind and snow seemed to gather in his eyes.He took the photo that Zhu Yun had been holding in his hand all this time, and after glancing at it, his complexion became very sad.
