Chapter 18 News of the Artifact

Heavy rains come as quickly as a woman's temper, and will last for a long time.

Two o'clock in the morning is the best time to sleep. Even night owls who are determined to stay up late cannot resist the call of the biological clock and will become tired at this time.

The dim corridors, wet corridors, and graffiti everywhere are all telling something.

Clang clang clang clang clang clang.
There are unusual noises coming from the decaying wall, and the cracked lines seem to tell the world that there may be monsters jumping out of it at the next moment. This situation does not need any weird music to make people feel immersed in horror. The feeling of the movie is still the kind of horror movie that will scare you into incontinence whenever you turn around.

In front of the decaying wall, two figures stood quietly. They stared at the wall and didn't speak for a long time.

Suddenly, one of them pointed behind him, and the other nodded.

creak
After returning home, Chu Ci and Dou Le retreated to the window on the other side before talking quietly.

"Uncle Dou, look what's going on."

Dou Le rubbed his brows and said with a serious expression: "Xiao Chu, there are some things you haven't experienced yet, so you don't know. In fact, anyone who has been here will know what the stench emanates from the wall is in an instant."

"Could it be?" Chu Ci was not stupid. He suddenly thought of something and his face became extremely ugly.

Dou Le nodded and said: "As expected, there are dead people in the wall, and they are corpses that have been dead for a long time. Human corpses are very special. Even concrete cannot cover up the smell of corpses after death."

"really."

"Xiao Chu, are you familiar with the house opposite?" Dou Le asked.

Chu Ci thought for a while and said: "It's quite familiar because I once provided study guidance for their daughter in high school. They are a family of three. The mother is a stay-at-home mother. The daughter is named Yang Shenglan. She is in the same school as me and is a sophomore in high school. student, his father is a contractor.”

"What's the relationship between the three of them?" Dou Le asked.

Chu Ci said almost hesitantly: "It's not a harmonious relationship. Father Yang is a good-looking person. In addition to work needs, he often brings guests back. Mother Yang is a diligent and frugal housekeeper with some mysophobia. She doesn't like her husband's extravagance and waste." , for this reason, the two of them would quarrel every now and then. Not only me, but everyone on the upper and lower floors knew about it.

Then Yang's father also had a history of domestic violence. It was common for him to beat his wife and daughter when he was drunk, so just six months ago, the couple finally couldn't get along and divorced. "

Dou Le touched his chin and speculated: "There is domestic violence. Could it be Father Yang inside the wall?"

Chu Ci shook his head and said, "I don't know. I haven't seen Yang's father since the couple divorced. It's very possible, but..."

"Just what?"

Chu Ci looked towards the door, "I haven't seen their daughter, Yang Shenglan, for a long time."

"call"

Dou Le took a heavy drag on the cigarette, as if to use nicotine to stabilize his mood.

"Uncle Dou, I don't think things are that simple. No matter whether it's Father Yang or Yang Shenglan inside the wall, Mother Yang, as a full-time mother, shouldn't know everything, unless..."

"She's just pretending!" Dou Le's expression condensed.

"No, I can feel that she is not pretending." Chu Ci shook his head.

Dou Le's expression became more solemn, "If she wasn't pretending, then this matter would be even more incredible."

"Uncle Dou, the first priority is to confirm who is inside the wall. Maybe we all guessed wrong." Chu Ci said.

Dou Le nodded and said, "Okay, I'll call now and ask the police to come over."

"Public Security? Can't Tong Tong handle it by himself?" Chu Ci asked doubtfully.

Dou Le shook his head, "It involves a murder case, and we have not confirmed that it was committed by someone else. The best way is to contact the police. After all, there is a skin bonus."

Dou Le made a small joke.

However, Chu Ci heard that this was not a joke, but represented ordinary people's control over the alien world. Dou Le, as the person in charge of the East China Region, could not take full responsibility for a murder case. This shows how 'embarrassing' the alien's status is. .

'Sure enough, the so-called seeking common ground while reserving differences is a pie drawn by the superiors to the people below. There is an essential difference between ordinary people and strangers.'

Dou Le glanced at Chu Ci and seemed to guess what he was thinking. He patted his shoulder and said calmly: "Don't think too much, just be yourself." Chu Ci was stunned for a moment and nodded.

"Yeah, just be yourself."

it's over, it's over, it's over
Dou Le informed that the police did not arrive at the scene for a quarter of an hour, and then came blockade and control, and finally analysis and smashing the wall.

As expected, there really are people hiding within the walls.

It’s Yang Shenglan’s father, Yang Chengkun.

Nothing happened to Chu Ci next. As the top scholar in the country, he just recorded a confession and the police stopped embarrassing him.

Yang's mother was taken away and the scene was sealed off. Chu Ci thought that the matter would be resolved soon.

However, the next day, when Chu Ci got on the plane and arrived in the capital, Dou Le called.

"Xiao Chu, are you not at home? Where are you?"

"Uncle Dou, I'm at the Capital Airport now and just got off the plane. What's wrong?"

In the huge airport, Chu Ci, carrying a small suitcase, said sorry to the gathered beauties and hurriedly walked away.

Because of his handsome face and impressive height, many people thought he was a star and came to seek his autograph.

Dou Le knew that he would have a decisive battle with Wang Ai tomorrow, and asked him where he was. It was obvious that something was wrong.

"Things have changed. Last night's case has been transferred to Nadutong."

Chu Ci paused and handed it over to Nadoutong. It could only be one situation. The case involved a different person.

"what's the situation?"

"It's a long story, and it's beyond everyone's expectations. Who do you think killed Father Yang?"

"Uncle Dou, if you ask this question, the murderer could not be Yang Shenglan."

"Sure enough, the No. [-] pick's brain is easy to use. Yes, the girl who killed Yang's father was the girl you once tutored, Yang Shenglan."

Chu Ci's footsteps stopped again, and he unconsciously reached out to rub his eyebrows.

"Why, what evidence is there? I am very familiar with that girl Yang Shenglan. She is a very well-behaved child. It is unlikely that she will commit murder."

"You wouldn't expect it, and neither would we, but the evidence is conclusive. The murderer was Yang Shenglan, and she was killed after Yang Shenglan became a stranger."

"Become a stranger." Chu Ci was silent again. The meaning of this sentence was not simple.

There are only two types of known aliens, the congenital aliens and the acquired aliens. The congenital aliens awaken Qi when they are born and can use it to master special abilities, such as telekinesis, invisibility, space and other wonderful powers. Acquired aliens specifically refer to aliens who have mastered alien arts after training, mainly from various sects.

Needless to say, there is no need to say anything about congenital aliens. They are there when you are born, and if you don’t have them, you don’t have them. This tests the skills of reincarnation.

The acquired aliens are all people with outstanding talents. After a long period of practice, they can sense and master the Qi in their bodies to become aliens.

Cultivation is a process that must be carried out by acquired aliens. Well, it is not absolute. The guy without roots can directly sense Qi without practicing.

It's just that rootlessness is a special case. Only one will appear in hundreds or thousands of years, and Yang Shenglan cannot happen to be it.

So Yang Shenglan becoming a stranger means that there is someone behind her to guide her.

The birth of a new alien is not an important matter, but if this alien kills his biological father after his 'birth', the matter is open to question. It should be a serious matter.

"Tell me more specifically, if Uncle Dou, a stranger who has gone astray, can't be so anxious to find me, does the matter still have something to do with me?"

"It's not related to you, but to the Shennong Cauldron."

"???"
