Mysterious creature sightings

Chapter 9 There is something in the lake

Yellow police cordon circled around Lover's Lake, ambulances with flashing lights pulled away a group of people, and the filming scene was in chaos.

People with mild symptoms did not go to ambulances. They sat in police cars far away from the lake and were being questioned. People from the Ministry of Environmental Protection were testing equipment at the lake.

When Lin Zheng arrived, the situation was initially under control.

"What's going on?" he asked the policeman next to him.

The police officers who arrived were all wearing ordinary duty uniforms, which were easy to identify. He was the only one wearing a combat uniform similar to that of a special police officer. He looked like he had just come from the scene of a difficult case. The two restraint belts stretched the muscles of his chest, abdomen and upper arms very hard. Eye-catching.

The police officer who was asked couldn't help but look at him. After seeing the witness, he said: "The crew filming a variety show here encountered a situation where dead fish were floating in the bird lake. They immediately felt uncomfortable at the same time. He suffers from tinnitus and dizziness, which is more severe for people who are close to the lake. He has nausea and vomiting. He has been sent to the hospital. We don’t know the cause. People from the Ministry of Environmental Protection and the emergency team are still checking.”

Lin Zheng asked again: "Is this lake usually deserted and no one ever visits it?"

"No, there is a Yi village in the valley below. They were originally planning to apply for a 3A scenic spot for this lake in the past two years. The program team also did a survey before coming. The two parties are in a publicity and cooperation relationship, and they also cleaned up before the filming started. Didn’t find anything wrong.”

He nodded to express his understanding. After missing the policeman, he originally planned to ask the director for more detailed clues, but when he saw that the director was still being interrogated by the police, he walked to the cordon and looked at the lake. There were dead fish and dead birds. They were piled together, and a small area of ​​the lake was dyed red.

What could be the reason that makes fish and birds die while also making a group of people feel dizzy and uncomfortable?

Lin Zheng recalled the case descriptions he had read and searched his memory for similar incidents, but he was really tired these past few days. His brain was like a gear lacking oil, and he would not be able to think of anything for a while.

The wind blowing by the lake was quite cool. He pinched the bridge of his nose and remembered the reason why he came here.

In fact, the case had just occurred and had not yet been classified into the UMA Special Investigation Division. However, when the people below reported it, he heard several key words.

There are many people in the program group and at the lakeside.

It instantly reminded him of the last time he was in the hospital ward. The girl named Zheng Linlin seemed to have said that their program team would choose a crowded lakeside location for filming this time.

As for why he thinks that a person who has encountered an unknown creature will have a similar encounter a second time, it is probably because there is some information in that memory fragment that his subconscious mind feels is important.

What could it be?

A clear voice was interspersed among the noisy voices behind, which was very recognizable.Lin Zheng turned around and saw a pale girl sitting in the police car opposite her. She was looking groggy. She paused for a moment and seemed a little uncomfortable.

The scene seemed to return to that rainy night last time, with the slender figure in the police station and those dark eyes.

The policeman in front of him finished asking and walked away. Ling Jiangyue leaned on the police car and looked around aimlessly. When his eyes turned to the lake, he saw an unexpected person.

With so many people squeezing around in the cordon, he had the strongest presence. His tall figure stood out in the crowd like a wire pile in a telephoto photo.

He was staring at her.

Ling Jiangyue smiled at him from a distance, and when he came over, he called out: "Uncle Policeman."

Lin Zheng didn't even raise his eyebrows, refusing to be called this, and said calmly: "You, the program team, seem to be unlucky."

"I think so too," she pursed her lips, the edges turned white as if she didn't dare to look at the dead birds. She looked directly into his eyes and asked, "Do you know the reason?"

Lin Zheng shook his head and asked her: "Can you describe the situation in detail? I saw that many people were dizzy and nauseated. Your symptoms seemed milder? Is it because you were not near the lake?" "Yes. I was standing under the tree, Originally, we were watching the staff perform, and when the dead fish floated in the lake, we all thought they were props, but suddenly a few dead birds fell from the sky. My friend stood in front and felt uncomfortable for no reason..."

"Your friend? What's his name?"

"Qi Juyu."

Lin Zheng had heard of this name. During the last savage sighting incident, he asked some people on the program team, and they mentioned that the reason why Ling Jiang Yue would go to the forest farm to throw garbage was instigated by this artist named Qi Zhiyu.

The rich daughter of the Jindong Group is being manipulated by an eighteenth-tier artist, and she still treats him as a friend. Is she that stupid?

"Qi Zhiyu is your friend? Why did I hear that your relationship is not very good?"

Ling Jiangyue asked as expected: "Who said we can't be friends if we don't have a good relationship?"

Lin Zheng: "..."

This rebuttal direction was something he didn't expect.

Ling Jiangyue saw his speechless expression and still stared into his eyes and said: "Didn't you investigate me about the baboon incident last time? You should know who I am and where I lived in the past ten years. Director of the welfare home In fact, the relationship between the older people is not very good, but we are all friends because we have the same experience and have spent a certain period of time together."

She really thinks so, and even if she defines the scope of friendship in this way, she doesn't have many friends.

Lin Zheng couldn't agree with her rules for making friends, so he ignored Qi Zhiyu and returned to the topic: "Then why do you think it gets worse the closer you get to the lake? Have you seen anything unusual?"

She hesitated: "Yes..."

Unexpectedly, Lin Zheng asked in a low voice, "What is it?"

Ling Jiangyue beckoned him to come closer. When the black combat uniform was almost touching her knees, she whispered in his ear: "I think there is something big in the lake."

Her voice was soft, like blowing, which made his ears itch. Lin Zheng frowned slightly. After hearing clearly, he immediately moved away and looked at the center of the lake businesslikely.

"There's something big in the lake? Why do you think you do that?"

"The first thing that went wrong was the fish in the lake. It floated up on its belly, and then it seemed to be grabbed by something, and then a little blood red appeared. But at first we all thought it was a prop from the show crew. The effect, I didn’t take it seriously. There were also birds. Before the shooting started, there were a bunch of dead birds by the lake. The degree of decay was different. This must have happened before, but no one was there at that time. My friend said that when he felt dizzy , I also saw a black shadow in the water, and it disappeared in the blink of an eye. I don’t know if it was my imagination.”

After she finished speaking, she still stared into his eyes and asked in a low voice as if she was scared: "Normal aquatic animals shouldn't have this ability. They can make fish turn their stomachs like they were poisoned, make birds in mid-air fall down, and make people dizzy. Since You are here, are you...are you a water monster? I have heard such stories."

Everyone is already familiar with the news about water monsters. In the early years, the news about the Tianchi water monster was known to everyone, whether it was true or not.

But Lin Zheng said: "The water monsters everyone talks about are actually just very large octopuses, whales or water snakes. These animals do not have such abilities."

But if this is the case, is it another unknown creature?Is this show crew really so unlucky that they encounter unexplained and unknown creatures wherever they go?

The probability of sighting UMA is not high, lower than winning the lottery.
