Chapter 401, Strange Talks in the Children's Palace 1
"Dead?"
I was shocked and didn't expect that the demon hunter would be killed.
"Yes, when we arrived at the scene, the picture was very terrible. On the ground and on the walls, you could see torn pieces of organs everywhere. Blood was flowing everywhere. At the same time, the monster hunter's internal organs had been eaten up. The reason why it was eaten up was because several of us found some bite marks in his body. The photo was also taken at that time, but the file was gone, and the photo was gone."
Lao Xiong added.
"So have you discovered demonic energy? As far as I know, it is difficult for sub-demons to hide their demonic energy. Although their spiritual intelligence should be relatively high, it is still much worse than those demons who have enough Taoism to transform into human form. It is basically impossible to hide demonic energy."
Hearing Chu Qiao's question, Lao Xiong shook his head and said, "There is still no demonic energy. Our clues have been cut off. The monster hunter we invited originally said that he had discovered the traces of the monster, but he did not notify us in advance before he died. Afterwards, we also wanted to find the whereabouts of the monster based on the traces found in the life of the monster hunter, but we never found any similar clues. Fortunately, there were no similar cases in Chongqing in the following decades, but if the monster hunter was counted, a total of fifteen people died at the hands of this sub-demon in the past fifty years."
The clue was broken, Chu Qiao and I looked at each other, and no one said anything. Lao Xiong stood up and smiled and said, "By the way, you will probably have to stay in Chongqing for a while, so I arranged a hotel. [Let Xiao Zhang take you there later. I have something to deal with on my hands. OK. Come with me."
Chu Qiao and I stood up, bowed and walked out the door. Xiao Zhang took us to a hotel that looked pretty good nearby. Chu Qiao and I stayed in a room. After Xiao Zhang left, we packed our luggage and started chatting. The jury of history number was estimated.
"What do you think of this case?"
I asked while replacing my luggage.
"First of all, let alone the intensity of the investigation during Wei Bin's period, I think it's understandable that the truth of the case was not found out. First of all, there must be insufficient manpower at that time. In addition, when the New China was just established, Chongqing was just liberated in 50 years. According to historical estimates, Chongqing was liberated at the end of November and early December in 1949. In 1950, Chongqing had just experienced a year after the war. Not to mention the secret destruction of those enemy specialists, the lonely ghosts who died because of the war were enough to drink a pot of Chongqing branch of the newly established national group number 5. Therefore, I am not surprised that Wei Bin did not investigate the truth of the case, but I wonder why Lao Xiong did not investigate it."
Chu Qiao is indeed a very smart person. She did not blindly believe Lao Xiong's words, but had her own analysis.
"Oh? How do you say it?"
I asked with a smile.
"Old Xiong took over his master's rank and became the head of the Chongqing branch. He must have the ability, but a sub-demon hunter invited by Wei Bin can investigate in a short time. He has not found it until today. This makes no sense, and it doesn't match it. In addition, Wan Lin, have you noticed it? The important thing of the file is lost. Lao Xiong and his follower Xiao Zhang, both of them don't seem to be nervous at all. On the contrary, they have been chatting with us calmly, and there are only two possibilities. One is that he doesn't care about these three files at all. In other words, he doesn't want to solve the case at all. Although Lao Xiong has a good memory and he memorizes the contents in the file, he doesn't study the file and read the file, how can we judge whether what Lao Xiong told us is true? Is it his subjective speculation or it really happened? The file will not lie, but people will lie. Of course, I have another more terrible guess."
Chu Qiao paused for a moment, and I continued his words: "That's why Lao Xiong pretended to be calm in order to hide his guilt. He must have a deep understanding of this case! Even the case itself involves his own safety!"
My words coincided with Chu Qiao again. He smiled slightly and said, "But no matter how much we guess here, it's useless. The key is to investigate. I think it's still early. Why don't we go to the old house in the afternoon to take a look? By the way, I can also have a hot pot from Shancheng. I have always wanted to try the authentic spicy hot pot in Chongqing."
I couldn't tell that Chu Qiao was still a foodie. I laughed and said, "Okay, then leave now."
Since we had doubts about Lao Xiong, we naturally would not expose our whereabouts to him. So we did not inform Lao Xiong, and we took a taxi to the old house that we had back then.
Fifty years have passed, and a lot of evidence has dissipated through the passage of time, and even many of the people who witnessed this bizarre case back then have died.
Now the old house that has been converted into the Children's Palace looks a little depressed and deserted. In 2004, our group of teenagers on the tails of the 1980s had already started to go to the Internet cafe and didn't even go to the gaming computer room. The place like the children's palace, which is suitable for children to play, has lost popularity. The group of 1990s was just children at that time, and they had already started playing various game consoles bought by their parents, so no one went to the Children's Palace. So when we arrived, there was basically no one in the Children's Palace. The outline of the old house was still there, the door frame, pillars, the stone lion in front of the gate, and the overall structure were still clearly visible. The iron door was open, and there was a guard room next to it, and it was also a ticket office. I took a look inside. The Children's Palace was empty, and some more childish game tables were placed quietly.
We walked to the door and glanced into the guard room. An old man with gray hair was sitting and listening to the radio, wearing a white sweatshirt, with his back facing us so he didn't see us.
Chu Qiao raised his hand and knocked on the glass. The old man seemed to have a bad ear, so he still didn't notice us. I whispered in Chu Qiao's ear: "Get in and take a look first, and then come out later."
Chu Qiao nodded and followed me in. Sure enough, the old man didn't see us from beginning to end. He walked into the interior of the Children's Palace and divided it into two floors, no longer what he looked like back then. Fortunately, I was mentally prepared and sighed and said, "Let's go in and take a look, don't know if the cellar is still there."
I walked into the Youth Palace with my feet raised my feet and felt a little gloomy as soon as I walked inside. It was still sunny outside, but the house felt much darker, and the air seemed to emit a faint ominous feeling.
"I'll go upstairs, you walk downstairs and check them separately."
He said to Chu Qiao, then walked upstairs. The game rooms have been built up, and there must be no clues. However, this was the test of Uncle Quan on Chu Qiao, and I was just accompanying him.
There are some photos of the past hanging on the walls, but they are all from the 1980s and 1970s. They are basically children. The stairs are still made of wooden, and they will make a slight "creak" sound when they step on them. The doors of the game room are tightly closed. It seems that they are not open to the public because they are not very popular.
After wandering around, the second floor was not big. Sure enough, I didn't find anything, but just as I was about to walk downstairs, I glanced at a golden object hanging at the gate where we came in.
Maybe it was because Chu Qiao and I didn’t pay attention. I just walked in and didn’t find this thing at all. At this time, I happened to be standing at a high place, and the sunlight reflected outside, so I saw it.
I walked downstairs, stood at the gate and looked up, and was stunned. A golden Bagua mirror was embedded on the door frame. I thought it was hanging, but when I looked carefully, it was embedded on the door frame. I jumped up and sprayed. As soon as I touched the Bagua mirror, I immediately felt that there was spiritual energy flowing inside it. In other words, this Bagua mirror was not a fake, but a real magic weapon.
At this moment, a hoarse and old voice rang outside the door behind me.
"Who are you? Why did you come in without buying a ticket?"
