Card Room

Chapter 476

Xiao Lou was puzzled when he heard the results found by Lao Mo and Liu Qiao.

The family is missing strangely?

The family they had infiltrated last night, there were more than a dozen of maidservants and servants alone, plus the young lady had just given birth to the child, she certainly could not get out of bed and walk, and the cry of the child would also disturb the neighbors nearby. Will they all disappear silently overnight?

Unless they are taken away by the coma, otherwise, there will be some noise when so many people leave collectively.

Yu Hanjiang frowned and said, "Lao Mo, Xiao Liu, go to the inn to meet us first. This small town is a little weird. Don't do it without your permission, so as not to frighten the snake."

Liu Qiao replied, "Okay Yu team, we will pass by now."

After a short while, Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou took the Longqu couple to the inn in the middle of the town.

This inn is called "Fulai Inn" and is located by the lake of Zuiyue Lake.

In the early morning, there were not many guests. The shop Xiaoer had just cleaned the room. When he saw Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou and his party, they greeted with a smile on their face. "Several guests, do you want to eat or stay?"

Xiao Lou said warmly, "Give us two rooms."

"Good!" Shop Xiaoer asked them to go upstairs diligently, while introducing, "The room on the second floor is all empty, and the four of them are still at ease. If you have any orders, please call me at any time."

"Thank you." Xiao Lou sent away the second child of the shop, and the four settled in the room first. There were few people in the inn in the morning, and it was not convenient for them to directly inquire about the Zhao family being destroyed. Xiao Lou planned to wait for lunch to go out and see.

After a while, Lao Mo and Liu Qiao also moved into the inn. Liu Qiao entered the house and closed the door. He held the voice headset and said, "Uncle Mo and I are in the room of" Yin ", Professor Xiao, where are you?"

Xiao Lou said, "There are two between heaven and earth. We pretend not to know, and use voice headsets to communicate."

Lao Mo pressed the headset and said, "I have just observed this inn. The lobby on the first floor is a place to eat. There are a total of 16 rooms on the second floor. The names are Heaven, Earth, Xuan, Huang, Zi, Ugly, and Yin. , Mao and other twelve terrestrial branches. The entire inn is a zigzag structure. The south-facing room faces the lake with the best view. The other three directions are all facing the street. "

He paused and added, “In the event of an accident at the inn, the closest to the street is the window of the“ Yin ”room where Liu Qiao and I live. We can jump directly through the window to escape and jump right at the corner of the street . "

Lao Mo has developed the habit of drawing maps wherever he goes. I'm really afraid to walk into a door and encounter a maze.

Xiao Lou was pleased, "Okay, I wrote it down."

Yu Hanjiang asked, "Did that family have just gone into the investigation?"

Liu Qiaodao said, "Uncle Mo was out there at the time. I sneaked in while taking care of the light card. The yard was deserted, there was no one, and the ground was full of rotten branches and leaves. But strangely, the house did not There were no signs of fighting, the bedding, tables and chairs were very neat. I found a letter in the host ’s room and brought it out. ”

Xiao Lou hurriedly asked, "What is the content of the letter?"

"It was his letter to his father-in-law and his mother-in-law, saying that his wife had just given birth to a son and was weak. He planned to take his wife and children to visit his father-in-law in Qingzhou City six months later. The letter was Chen Yu, the male Master, it should be called Chen Yu. "

"Chen Yu?" Yu Hanjiang frowned. "Is there any other clue?"

"In addition to this letter, I found no other clues." Liu Qiao paused, suddenly remembered something, added, "Yes, I also found a child's toy in the bedroom, they should have just given it to the newborn Children bought. "

"What toy?" Yu Hanjiang asked.

"A red rattle."

Xiao Lou "..."

Rattle? Thinking of the rattle found in Zhao's room just now, Xiao Lou looked at Yu Hanjiang doubtfully. "Will it be a coincidence? We also found a rattle in Zhao's bedroom."

Yu Hanjiang said, "There are not so many toys in ancient times. It is not uncommon for elders to buy a rattle to tease children. This kind of toy is too common, and it may not be a coincidence."

Xiao Lou nodded in agreement. "Well, the toy" Rattle "can't explain the problem. However, there are many similarities between the two. First of all, there was no trace of fighting in the crime scene, and no blood stains were found. The Zhao family was tragically destroyed, and the Chen family disappeared overnight, quietly, as if being ... "

Yu Hanjiang continued with his words, "Is it the same as being caught by a ghost?"

Long Sen heard the scalp tingling and could n’t help saying, “If it ’s really a demon and a monster, it ’s hard to explain with common sense? The demon and the monster kill people without leaving any traces. It makes sense to eat the whole family directly ... "

Xiao Lou could n’t help crying. “The Yu team was just kidding. The ghosts committed crimes and ate the whole family. I do n’t think Hong Tao was so bored. I set this irrational case for us to investigate. What ’s more, if the ghosts committed crimes, little How do you explain the mass grave on the cliff outside the town? "

Long Sen was stunned and tapped his head for a moment of understanding. "Yes! Will the ghosts bury the people in the mass grave after killing them? This must be artificial, and, tossing the mass, we can see This murderer has a lot of hatred with the Zhao and Chen families. "

Ye Qi was buying clothes in the shop at this time. Hearing Xiaolou's discussion, he was terribly anxious but couldn't insert a word. When the shop owner saw the face of the "girl" in front of her, she couldn't help but say, "Don't worry, the girl doesn't have ready-to-wear clothes in the store, we can also tailor-made it."

Shao Qingge walked to Ye Qi with a smile and asked, "Why? Do you like it?"

Ye Qi picked up a blue men's suit and said, "Just this one."

The lady boss looked surprised and said, "Girl, this dress is for men. Do you want to pick it over there?"

Shao Qingge leaned into the boss's ear and explained in a low voice, "The two of us eloped."

Ye Qi "..." Elope your sister! Mr. Shao really didn't change his face when he talked about lying.

Just listen to Shao Qingge and continue to say, "It is not easy for him to be found by his family in men's clothing. The boss, if someone comes to ask you, ask if you have seen a woman in red, please help us keep a secret."

He said nothing, so he took out a piece of silver from the purse and stuffed it in the hands of the lady boss.

The lady boss immediately smiled and said, "My son, don't worry, I haven't seen you at all today."

Shao Qingge followed closely, "By the boss, do you know where Chen Yu ’s family lives? I was a good friend with him when I was young. I wanted to stay at his house this time, but I never received the letter I wrote to him. Respond. "

The proprietress looked around, there was no one in the nearby street, she turned nervously to close the door, then walked back to Shao Qingge, lowered her voice, and said mysteriously, "Chen's family, they were three years ago, overnight All are missing! The old people in the town said that the Chen family must have offended some evil spirits and was eaten by the demon. "

Shao Qingge's complexion changed to "Demon?"

The proprietress nodded solemnly. "Yes. Since then, we have set a rule in our town. Once the night is over, we must not go out. Those who go out will go back and forth."

Just when Ye Qi put on menswear, she glanced at Yeqi in menswear and kindly advised, "Son, you two first arrived, you must be careful at night. When the time passes, you may be killed by ghosts."

Ye Qi hid to Shao Qingge pretending to be afraid. Shao Qingge naturally wrapped around his shoulder and comforted softly, "Do n’t be afraid, we are just passers-by, who have no guilt with the evil spirits here. No life can be claimed from us. "

Ye Qi nodded, looked at the lady boss, and asked curiously, "In the town, are there many people eaten by Li Gui? Chen Yu is our friend, how could this happen?"

The proprietress sighed, "I don't know, he usually looks kind, and the night of the accident, his lady just gave birth to a child. It is said that when the child was born, the red light in the sky flickered, much like The plagued star came down ... maybe it was the plagued star who hooked Li Gui. "

"..." Shao Qingge and Ye Qi looked at each other and looked at each other.

Disaster star, Li Gui, this statement is unreliable.

However, Shao Qingge's way of "spending money to inquire about the news" was very reliable. After the boss received the money, she talked a lot and told them a lot of bizarre legends. The two had at least determined the exact time of the incident.

Three years ago, July 14, the day before the Chinese Yuan Festival.

Chen Yu's wife gave birth to a child on this day. The next morning, the Chen family disappeared collectively, and his whereabouts are still unknown.

Shao Qingge asked, "Three years ago, only Chen Yu's family had an accident?"

The boss lady mysteriously said, "There is also the Zhao family. On that day, Zhao Zean, the second daughter of the Zhao family, got married. It was a happy event, but the next day her fiancé came to the door and said that she did not receive the bride. It ’s all gone. "

Ye Qi's eyes widened and he couldn't believe it. "Is the whole family gone?"

The boss lady's worried expression "Yeah, the matchmaker, the happy mother who sent the relatives, and the people who carried the dowry out of the town are also gone, which is really strange."

Ye Qi was horrified. "Is there really a ghost to kill?"

The proprietress said, "After that, we dared not go out at night. In these years, many people have disappeared in the town, but they disappeared after going out at night. Every night when it was dark, we all fell asleep. I advise both Do n’t go to Chen Yu ’s house. The yard in his house has n’t been lived in for three years. Xiemen is very good! It ’s better to find an inn to live. ”

Shao Qingge took out a silver coin from the purse and handed it to her, smiling and said, "Thank you, boss, we will go to a hotel to settle down. The two of us have just arrived, and we will ask you to take care of us in the future."

The proprietress quickly put the silver into her pocket and smiled her eyes. "It's easy to say, the son needs help. Despite looking for me, I lived here for more than thirty years and I am familiar with the neighborhood!"

The two said goodbye to the lady boss and went out side by side.

Ye Qi replaced the cumbersome Qinglou red dress, took off the jeweled jewelry on her hair, wore a clean and neat blue gown, with black boots, and her long hair simply tied a ponytail behind her head. .

Shao Qingge felt that such leaflets were pleasing to the eye and full of vitality.

It's just that Ye Qi's eyes are full of doubts at this time. He whispered in Shao Qingge's ear, "Do you believe in Li Gui, please?"

Shao Qingge shrugged. "I am an atheist, but there is nothing impossible in the secret world. Last night, we met zombies? Professor Xiao and they saw the ghost bride get married."

Ye Qi shook his goose bumps. "Let's join them as soon as possible."

The two came to the inn and lived in the "Xuan" room on the second floor.

Then, Shao Qingge pressed the bulge on the headset and told the teammates the result he just inquired about, "The time of the incident was three years ago, July 14th of the lunar calendar, the day before the Chinese New Year. Many people in the town I think that the Chen family and the Zhao family did something bad.

Xiao Lou frowned and said, "The Mid-Yuan Festival is also called the Ghost Festival. It is said to be the day when the passage between the world and the ghost world was opened. It happened on the day before the Ghost Festival. The two people disappeared so strangely, and it is no wonder that the residents of the town I will think of Li Gui asking for his life. "

On the face of it, it really seems like the two have done something wrong and suffered revenge from Li Gui.

Yu Hanjiang said, "It seems that this" ghost "is the murderer."

Ye Qi asked curiously, "So many people disappeared overnight, how did the murderer do it?"

Xiao Lou thought about it carefully and said, "The Zhao family's spiritual hall is filled with spiritual positions, and others are offering incense to the spiritual position, proving that the Zhao family's people have not died. It is probably my guess with the Yu team. The eldest son Zhao Zeping 'S wife and children escaped this disaster. We must find this survivor, maybe she knows something? "

Yu Hanjiang said, "But what if she secretly incense every night?"

Xiao Lou was stunned. "This ... at night, the town will become another world. Can't we see her?"

"Well, this is the first problem." Yu Hanjiang whispered, "We are challengers, not locals. Once the night comes, we will be forcibly transferred to the ghost town maze at night after we enter the town. Last night we It has been tested. Many streets in the ghost town are empty, and those who stayed there should be deadly ghosts. "

Lu Jiuchuan and Tang Ci have been staying outside. Hearing this, Lu Jiuchuan interjected, "You mean, the town at night will be divided into two copies, the aborigines are still in their town, and we will be sent to the ghost town?"

Yu Hanjiang said, "Yes, we can go in and out of the town freely during the day and investigate the clues. At night is the real battle royale. If I guess right, the ghosts staying in the ghost town at night, after discovering us, it is likely Will attack us. "

Lu Jiuchuan said, "How about we leave the town before dark?"

Xiao Lou pressed the temple reluctantly. "Then there will never be any clues, and the case of the bizarre disappearance of the two people will not be solved, and there will be no way out of this secret room."

Everyone "............"

This is too pitted.

If you don't leave the town, you will be sent to the maze full of ghosts at night. They left the town when it was dark, and they couldn't find a complete clue, it was simply an infinite loop.

The forced conversion of the two worlds, day and night, forced them to go to the ghost town for abuse at night?

Yu Hanjiang whispered, "Do you have any suggestions?"

Xiao Lou said, "I want to go to the ghost town again at night. That ghost bride may appear tonight. Although the ghost town is a survival copy, it is dangerous, but it is also a copy of the clue. We must go to the ghost town to find clues."

Yu Hanjiang nodded. "Okay, I'll go with you."
