I have a city in another world

Chapter 5373 Official investigators
The outside of the Ma family's residence has now been designated as a restricted area, and no one is allowed to approach.

Neighbors in the left and right houses were all affected and forced to move out of their homes.

Although there were a hundred reluctances in their hearts, they could only obediently obey in the end.

After all, the identity of the expelled people is not something they can provoke, and the swords and guns in their hands are even more frightening.

I am afraid that if I am not careful, these weapons will fall on me, and I will lose my life in a daze.

Light and darkness are always in contrast. Not seeing does not mean non-existence. Using the Ma family's affairs as an excuse to reap a few lives by the way, no one will be held accountable afterwards.

This group of ordinary people is unaware of the darkness, they just instinctively fear power.

Now they are gathered outside the small town, looking in the direction of their home, cursing constantly in their mouths.

He scolded the Ma family and his son for being immoral, scolded those officials for being too domineering, and at the same time worried about the loss of their own property.

All roads around Ma's house have been blocked, and no one is allowed to enter or exit.

There were people on the roof, and there were people in the yard, and it was really tightly blocked.

A group of people who don't know their identities and origins communicate with the officials, and are about to enter the Ma's courtyard to test it out.

The guests who had escaped before were gathered together at this moment and asked about the whole process.

There was fear on their faces and rejoicing in their voices, and they were happy that they were able to escape the danger.

When the official asked them if they would like to enter it again, their heads shook like rattles.

Everything I have experienced before is like a real nightmare. Once you have experienced it once, you never want to experience it again.

After inquiry and analysis, the official yamen came to the conclusion that as long as you enter the Ma family compound, you must pay ten yuan of life money as a gift.

If you don't pay the gift money, you can't leave.

But at the same time, you will also get a gift of 1000 yuan in return, which can be regarded as a surprise.

Such rigid behavior is obviously restricted by a certain rule and coincides with information coming from other places.

Apparently, there was a transcendent who used a blank contract at the Ma family's wedding to force those guests to pay their Yangshou.

Based on other information, it was judged that the operator of this matter should be a farm girl who was divorced and slandered by the Ma family.

After locking the character, the official immediately sent someone to the girl's house to learn more intelligence information.

But it didn't take long before they received a reply that the girl's family had quietly moved away.

It is still uncertain where to move, and it must be carefully investigated.

The clues about the girl's family were interrupted and they could only put them aside temporarily. After all, time waits for no one, and they must solve the Ma family's problems as soon as possible.

After deliberation, the government decided to send a team of ten people to enter the house to check.

These people have different identities, only half are government officials, and the rest are special personnel who joined temporarily after hearing the news.

Regarding their identities and backgrounds, even officials were not clear about them, and they dared not offend them easily.

Officials are well aware that the world is changing quietly. Some people will take advantage of the situation and others will fall into the abyss.

In this special period, we must learn to protect ourselves wisely, and try not to cause trouble as much as possible.

With this idea in mind, they did not raise any objections when they heard about the personnel arrangements.

On a normal day, it would be impossible to make such outrageous arrangements for a special task like this.

Some unknown members of society actually participated in the mission, which was almost a joke.

But at this moment, they could only choose silence.

Looking at the Ma family compound covered with dark clouds and surrounded by fog, everyone gritted their teeth and opened the wooden door.

Unexpectedly, the courtyard door suddenly opened, and two embarrassed figures rushed out from the courtyard.

"Two more come out!"

Several officers and soldiers in charge of guarding the gate quickly subdued the two and dragged them to a nearby room for interrogation.

There are also town residents next to them, who are responsible for assisting in identification and asking questions that the other party should know.

Through this method of inquiry, it is judged whether there is a problem with the escapee.

The ten people who were about to enter waited for a while and watched the entire inquiry process.

They were actually worried that another accident would happen, so they postponed the time to enter.

After confirming that there was no problem, this group of operators opened the courtyard door again.

The scene in the courtyard door surprised them secretly.

It turned out that what was behind the courtyard gate was not the wedding banquet scene as imagined, but a deserted courtyard.

There was no one in the yard, and the ground was full of fallen leaves and garbage.

A large number of tables, chairs and tableware are scattered in the yard, and the scene of the wedding banquet can be vaguely seen.

Those bright red paper flowers all faded and turned white, and then shattered under the erosion of wind and rain.

When the yard was opened, a strange gust of wind blew up and picked up the fallen leaves all over the ground.

While the fallen leaves are flying, there seem to be ethereal figures dancing with the fallen leaves.

All kinds of sounds came along with the sound of the wind, as if someone was crying miserably.

The team members standing outside the door couldn't help feeling numb when looking at the strange scene in the yard.

According to the stories of the escaping guests, it is actually not that scary. The only troublesome part is that you have to pay ten years of life.

They came here to carry out the task, but it does not mean that they have to pay such a huge price. That is a full ten years of life. How many people can easily give up?
At this moment, everyone has the same thought in their hearts, hoping to find a way to break the situation.

Once the situation is successfully broken, there is no need to pay ten years of life.

But at this moment, looking at the scene in the yard, they gradually lost confidence.

At the same time, I finally realized that there is an essential difference between extraordinary power and ordinary cases.

When extraordinary power loses its restraints, the laws of the world are helpless. These officials, who rely on the law, are no better than ordinary people in such a strange environment.

"Should we... still go in?"

Some people have the intention of quitting, but they can't say it directly.

He asked his companions to see if anyone supported him.

"..."

At this moment, everyone felt entangled.

As the first batch of investigators, they didn't have the right to give up at all. They knew it was dangerous, but they had no choice but to bite the bullet and enter.

Just because the big guy behind it is waiting for the answer.

"Let's go in."

The captain in charge of decision-making said in a light tone, and then stepped into it one step at a time.

Confidence has been shaken before the action has even begun. This is definitely a taboo for military strategists.

The captain therefore acted decisively, leaving a group of team members with no chance to regret.

Seeing the captain entering the yard, a group of team members could only bite the bullet and walked in one after another.

When they entered the yard and looked around, they discovered more details.

It turned out that there were many skeletons scattered in the yard, maintaining struggling and twisted postures.

The owners of these skeletons are likely to be the guests of the wedding banquet.

But a few minutes ago, they saw with their own eyes two guests rushing out of the yard.

It is clearly the same door, but the scene they see is different, it is extremely weird.

Soon everyone saw several ferocious mummies kneeling on the ground in front of the door of the Ma family's house.

Looking at their ferocious expressions, one knew that before dying, they must have endured great pain.

Looking at the old house of Ma's family, the whole hall is full of candlelight, and a couple of newlyweds are sitting in the hall.

The groom's face was pale, his eyes were bulging, and he stared out of the door.

The bride sitting next to her was wearing a blood-red trousseau. Under the red hijab, there was a pale and pretty face that was both happy and angry.

Even though there was a hijab blocking them, everyone could still feel that a cold gaze was staring at them.
