  Chapter 221 220. You looked like a thief just now.After   watching "The Mouth of a Madman" In the current manuscript, Drizzt felt a little dizzy.

The beginning of this story begins with the disappearance of a novelist, a famous horror novelist, who left the beginning of a new novel and disappeared. Everyone discusses spiritedly, and the detective responsible for the investigation and him Two of his assistants were attacked in the teahouse. They defeated the attacker and went to the publishing house to look for clues to the novelist. The beginning happened to be stuck here.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the content in this novel is almost exactly the same as Lu Yi’s experience so far, except that there are some more plots in the novel. It is mentioned that the detectives provided clues to the publisher The investigation revealed that the novelist might have gone to a small town not far from the city.

And this manuscript was obviously given to the editorial department by the ancient capital two weeks ago. As for writing, it must have been earlier.

If you just write that the detective in charge of the investigation was attacked, it can be said to be a fixed stage in this kind of novel, but the detective has two assistants, one man and one woman, which corresponds exactly to Lu Yi and Xia. Moreover, when they were attacked, they used wonderful techniques to defeat the attacker and almost unanimously.

More importantly, when the three returned to the detective's office, Lu Yi's actions to hug the orange cat were also described in the manuscript.

"The ability to predict?"

Shia first thought of the corresponding magic, but the prediction itself was not accurate. After all, it was just a demonstration of probability. No one relied on that thing to do it. The decision, and in the abandoned city, it is obviously unreasonable for a writer to have such ability. If the ancient city could really predict, then why would he disappear?

"This beginning is really perfect, isn't it, it makes people look forward to the follow-up."

Qian editor cautiously put away the manuscript.

"Indeed."

Drizzt took his words and asked instead.

"Apart from this, do you have any clues?"

"The ancient capital has often been without people for several days since some time ago. He said he went to Beihan Town to collect materials , But I don’t know where Beihan Town is, do you know?"

Editor Qian looked bitter.

"I don't know."

Lu Yi shook his head.

"According to the description in the novel, the novelist in this story went to a small town in the north, so to speak, Beihan Town should be north of the abandoned city?"

Xias asked.

"There was a city in the past two days to the north of the abandoned city. It is not called Beihan Town, but Hanxu, it is a mining city."

Drizzt explained casually. One sentence.

"The ancient capital may have gone to Hanxu?"

Lu Yi asked.

"It is possible that the novel always has a prototype. The Northern Cold Town and the Cold Ruins described in it have certain similarities, and the answer may be found there."

Drizzt Nodded.

He had just finished speaking, and suddenly he was in a daze.

After thinking about it, the detectives in the story of "Mouth of the Madman" got clues from the editorial department and decided to go to Beihan Town.

Then and now, as now and now.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing that Drizzt's face was wrong, Sia asked immediately.

"No, it's nothing."

He adjusted his mood and asked more about the details of the exchange between the editor and the ancient capital before he left the publishing house.

"We are now investigating exactly at the pace of the novel. How is this novel written?"

Came to the street and looked at those to-and-fro Passersby, Drizzt sighed.

"Is there a possibility that we are in a novel now?"

Lu Yi suddenly have a thought.

"."

Drizzt didn't want to talk to Lu Yi.

"Are we going to the ancient capital's home again?"

Xia is not too much in Lu Yi's statement.

"Let’s take a look."

The three people went to the third ring without stopping. Although it is said to be one ring and one ring, in fact, these urban areas do not have real walls as Distinguish, only the difference of the street.

At the third ring road, the road suddenly became clean, as if someone was cleaning it at any time, the smell of excrement was also disappeared, instead there were Birds, Speech, Flowers, Fragrances.

There are also rickshaw drivers here, but both the cars and the clothes of these people are newer and cleaner than the outside, and even their mental outlook is different.

Even when these coachmen looked at Drizzt, Lu Yi, and Siya, who had some dust on their coats walking from the fourth ring street, they could still see some contemptuous expressions.

Lu Yi was a little surprised by the attitude these people showed here, but it is reasonable to think about it.

In some eras, slaves are proud of their masters, and even sell their compatriots for the masters, as it has always been in history.

The houses here are all single-family villas. The rich people in the abandoned city are not only unwilling to share houses with others, but also because they often hold parties. A bright hall and elegant garden are indispensable. Less.

Compared with other places, this place is more secluded.

"It's very quiet here, and there is no who on the street."

Xia couldn't help but sigh.

"Yes, maybe they all went to work and inspected their own industry"

What else Drizzt wanted to say, Lu Yi interrupted the two directly.

"Let's talk about something else."

Drizzt and Xia looked at Lu Yi weirdly, wondering what's special about it.

The three of them walked along the road until they came to the villa at the end of the ramp. The garden of the villa was obviously unmaintained and a mess. The weeds had already taken away the space for the growth of normal flowers and plants, and they had grown wildly and spread. As far as the wall, the whole house looked gloomy and terrifying. From here, the situation in the house could not be seen. Drizzt first strolled around outside the yard.

"I found something."

Lu Yi looked at Drizzt who came back, and said seriously.

"Why, are there traces of the ancient capital?"

"You looked like a thief just now."

Lu Yi replied.

". Go away."

Drizzt took the key and opened the iron gate of the yard. It seemed that the rusty gate made a creaking sound, just like in a horror movie. The common kind.

Drizzt walked at the front, Lu Yi at the end, and the three came to the door of the room.

Pushing the door open, Drizzt first smelled a rancid smell.

"Corpse?"

He quickly denied this conjecture, because in the kitchen sink, a mass of yellow and green things swelled and flowed out. It was moldy food. , The rancid smell also comes from this.

Turning on the light, Lu Yi saw that the furnishings of the entire room looked depressive, dull, and uncoordinated. It could be seen that the cabinets and tables were not placed diagonally, which would definitely kill the obsessive-compulsive disorder. , There are photos on the cupboard, but there is only one person in the ancient capital.

It can be seen that this is a rather handsome young man with melancholy characteristics between his eyebrows and eyes, which is indeed a benchmark for literary youth.

After looking around on the first floor, Drizzt was about to check on the second floor without finding any clues.

At this time, Xia suddenly raised her hand.

"Shhh."

She motioned to the other two to be quiet, then lowered her voice to speak.

"There is movement upstairs."

Crunch——

At the same time, from the heads of the three of them, the sound of something stepping on the wooden floor Came.
