"Did you get anything out of that guy's mouth?"
After deciding not to worry about Xu Shenxing's Department of Physics or Chemistry, Xiao Zhengyi wisely changed the topic.
"more or less."
Originally, Xu Shenxing was looking for the land loli to help the latter perceive what was wrong in Jiangjin City—after all, as the incarnation of the earth, the land god can be regarded as the most sensitive existence to changes in Jiangjin's one-third-acre land.
However, the land loli did not sense it, but directly told Xu Shenxing where the other party might be hiding.
"There is an abandoned hotel in the south of the city. It is said that the investor intends to build a high-end office building, but because the construction permit for high-rise buildings in the city has not been obtained, only a new building with less than four floors can be built, but the value of the land will decrease. Diving fell, and there is no way to withdraw funds, so there can only be shelved in the end."
While walking down the mountain, Xu Shenxing told Xiao Zhengyi what he had learned from the land god Lolita: "According to the land god of Jiangjin, that place was actually Jiangjin It is one of the most famous earth temples, and it is probably the one with the longest history. It was only smashed in the period of the Four Olds, and then it was converted into a hotel. And because the cannibal monster had some relationship with the land god, so every day Every time I pass by Jiangjin, I will rest there."
"So...wait a minute." Xiao Zhengyi showed a thoughtful expression. He took out the phone and called his assistant, Fang Xiaoqing, who was staying in the super management office. After a few instructions, he made a request to listen. look.
After a while, Xiao Zhengyi hung up the phone.
"Sure enough..." Xiao Zhengyi showed a serious look, and he looked at Xu Shenxing: "You also know that I was a criminal policeman before?"
"Hey, weren't you a traffic policeman before?" Xu Shenxing looked surprised.
"It was an accident, and I have only been a traffic policeman for less than a week!" Xiao Zhengyi defended himself dissatisfiedly, but then he returned to the serious mode just now: "A new policeman like me, actually When I first entered the police station, I basically had to start with sorting out documents. In fact, I noticed a very strange thing at that time. But after I became a full-time police officer, I was busy investigating cases every day. .That's why I forgot about it."
"Can you call that a case investigation? Which case in your hand was not solved with the help of Jasmine and me..." Xu Shenxing complained from the side.
"Yes! I single-handedly solved the large-scale car theft and car sales!"
"Is there such a case?"
"Of course, it's the one where the three of them stole the bicycle more than a year ago!"
"I said you really can't be promising..." Xu Shenxing sighed, and began to reflect on whether he had found the wrong partner.
Although he was making complaints about Xiao Zhengyi, Xu Shenxing honestly waited for Xiao Zhengyi to say the "very strange thing" he thought of before.
"When I was sorting out the documents, I once sorted out the files of Jiang Jin's missing persons."
"Is there a bastard called Xingbala?" Xu Shenxing asked.
"No, what's the matter?"
"It's nothing, you continue..."
"Well, actually, when I was sorting out, I found a very strange place: Among the missing people, the last place they were seen before disappearing was the hotel, and the disappearances were very regular, almost every four years There is one."
Xiao Zhengyi said in a deep voice: "After that, I went there out of curiosity, but unfortunately I didn't find anything, but there seems to be some legend circulating among the nearby residents. If I guess correctly, the last hotel in that hotel It will be closed due to poor management, and there are probably 80% of the reasons for this.”
"One every four years, did the monster come to Jiangjin to watch the Olympics..." Xu Shenxing was a little speechless: "Then according to the routine, the last time this kind of thing happened was four years ago."
"Having said that, I still find it a bit strange."
Xiao Zhengyi frowned and said: "The meaning of missing is equivalent to not seeing people alive or dead, but if the person who disappeared in that hotel was attacked by the monster that is currently haunting Jiangjin, at least one person will be left behind." The head is right. But our criminal police team has searched there several times, but we have not been able to find the body of the missing person... "
"Maybe the monster's taste has changed? In short, let's leave this kind of thing alone and find out the other party."
Finally, after reaching the police car at the foot of the mountain, it was Xu Shenxing who made the final decision and made a decision.
…
Soon they arrived at the location of the abandoned hotel.
After easily climbing over the barbed wire fence that had lost its isolation function, Xu Shenxing and the others officially entered it.
Although it's winter, there are still many waist-high withered yellow weeds in the wasteland of the hotel.
The eerie ruins of the hotel stand in it, and the black door without the door panel looks like a monster's mouth, which makes people feel retreat.
Of course, the people mentioned here refer to ordinary people. People like Xu Shenxing have no pressure at all: there are places in other worlds that are much more eerie than this kind of place.
Jasmine, on the other hand, took a branch she got from someone who didn't know where, squatted on the ground and poked it for a while, and picked out a cauliflower snake that was still hibernating from which hole...
"Landlord, can this be eaten?"
Jasmine shook the branch and asked curiously.
"OK."
"Is it delicious?" Jasmine continued to ask.
"Well, actually, I haven't tasted it either, maybe it tastes like Hydera?" Xu Shenxing replied uncertainly.
Hydra: noun, ingredients, a snake with nine heads, it tastes like chicken.
"Although I haven't eaten Hydra, I think your eating habits must be unhealthy..." Xiao Zhengyi twitched the corner of his mouth and said softly.
"Whether it is healthy or not is another matter, but that guy's head is growing fast. At that time, I had a friend who just had a big appetite. Every time I went on an expedition, I would find a place with Hydera to have a big meal first, and then cut off the other party after eating no longer a head. Dead to eat meat...”
"This is already abuse. Hey, I suddenly feel so sorry for Hydera!" Xiao Zhengyi said perfunctorily with half-stared dead fish eyes—although he recognized Xu Shenxing's strength, but what Xu Shenxing said was too fantasy-like Fantastic adventures have always been heard as Xu Shenxing's first-person bragging.
Jasmine smacked her small mouth, probably thinking that Hydera was not very tasty, so she threw the unlucky snake far away.
Although Xu Shenxing felt that he vaguely heard someone screaming in the distance, "Ah, why did a snake fall from the sky!", but he still decided to take it as an illusion, and walked into the abandoned hotel without paying attention.
As soon as he walked into the hotel, he could feel that the temperature inside was slightly lower than outside, and the air full of damp and rotten smell made Xu Shenxing frown.
In the center of the lobby of this hotel is a huge pool, but now that it has been abandoned, no one has cleaned the pool, and the water inside has turned a disgusting green color, and is covered by thick moss-like things.
The glass ceiling originally designed for light transmission is almost broken, and rainwater will fall from above and flow into the pool. This is probably why the pool has not dried up even after the hotel has been abandoned for more than two years.
Xiao Zhengyi took Xu Shenxing around the hotel, but did not find anything special.
Finally, they came to the main hall of the hotel—usually this main hall was used for weddings and the like, but now for some reason there was an iron chain as thick as an adult's arm wrapped around the door.
Xiao Zhengyi first took out a master key.
"Do the current police still have this kind of equipment..." Xu Shenxing complained from the side.
"Sister Yu, our lockpicking is just!"
Xiao Zhengyi began to pick the lock with dignity.
After about ten minutes.
"Ou Cao, the inside of this lock is corroded, the lock cylinder is rusted, and it can't be opened at all!"
Our righteous police officer made an OTZ move.
Xu Shenxing reluctantly stepped forward and tugged lightly, just like pulling a piece of instant noodles that had been soaked in hot water for too long and had rotted, the iron chain was easily broken.
There is not much difference between the inside of the main hall and the outside, but the stale atmosphere is stronger. There are randomly piled tables and chairs everywhere, and the wooden tables and chairs have begun to rot because no one takes care of them. It can be seen that There was still some confusion when the hotel closed. Almost all the valuable things in the main hall were taken away, not even a cup was left behind.
"There's nothing. Is this considered empty?" Xiao Zhengyi sneezed because of the pervasive dust, and then sniffed: "I've been running around on this case for the past two days, and my nose is a little stuffy."
"No, to be precise, we hit the jackpot."
But Xu Shenxing said in a deep voice.
"What?"
"Your nasal congestion is not due to your own body, but..." After hesitating for a while, Xu Shenxing still sighed: "Forget it, let's see for yourself."
After speaking, he stomped his feet a little harder.
At the same time as the whole ground trembled, Xiao Zhengyi also found that the scene in front of him had ripples as if a pebble had been thrown into the water!
After a while, the ripples disappeared, but what appeared in front of him was already a completely different scene.
There is no change in discarding the stacked tables and chairs at random, but there are a little more things in this space.
Male corpses, female corpses, children's corpses, old people's corpses...
Many incomplete corpses were placed in a mess like pork in a slaughterhouse, and the internal organs and solidified blood covered most of the ground.
"This is..." Even Xiao Zhengyi was frightened by this scene for a while.
"This is the scene of the banquet," Xu Shenxing sneered, "It's just that the guests don't seem to be human."
