endless tricks

On October [-]th, the sun was not very sunny, and the weather gradually turned muggy.Just after the Mid-Autumn Festival, the National Day holiday began again, and now there are two days left before the National Day holiday. N City, as a thousand-year-old capital, has naturally become a tourist attraction.Chattering tourists can be seen everywhere in the shady places on the street, and tour groups can be seen around the corner.

"Xiaguan Station has arrived. Passengers who get off the bus, please pay attention to safety. Xiaguan Station has arrived..."

The bus pulls up and the doors open.Yang Yuan got out of the car, holding an open envelope in his hand, and carrying a messenger bag. T-shirt casual pants and a pair of sneakers, the clothes are refreshing and simple.He opened the envelope, took out the letter inside, and reread it.

This is an 'admission notice' letter from a reasoning agency called 'monster'.Yang Yuanyi was unemployed some time ago, and received this 'admission notice' three days after he profiled Haitou on major recruitment websites.

Now few people would choose to use such an ancient way of message transmission as letters, so it seemed that this reasoning agency was very mysterious.The letter wrote: '... was hired by our agency, with a monthly salary of xxxxx yuan, and other employee benefits, and a probationary period of two months.Sign the contract from the period of employment...'.

Yang Yuanyi didn't read the following content at all.In his eyes, only a five-figure monthly salary and five social insurances and one housing fund are left, and the post and job requirements are not mentioned in the letter.After Yang Yuanyi received the letter, he finished chasing ten classic mystery dramas at home and abroad overnight, and now his mind is full of scenes of killing and dismembering corpses.

The reasoning agency is located in Xiaguan Mountain in N City. Xiaguan Mountain is not a mountain but a block in the city center.This block was a prosperous villa area during the Republic of China, although it declined in the later times and gradually turned into a residential area.

Xiaguan Mountain is also known as Xiaguan District. It is surrounded by high-rise buildings around it, like a small courtyard in a deep house. Outside it is bustling and noisy, but here it is quiet and quiet.

Outside is a sidewalk with lush trees on one side.After walking 200 meters along the sidewalk, there are more than ten steps of stairs with a stone door on the stairs.Passing through Shimen is the alleys and old villas in Xiaguan District, and each villa has a house number.The house number in the letter is 144, hidden in the innermost part of Xiaguan District.

Yang Yuanyi stood in front of the iron gate of villa No. 144 and looked inside. There was a big tree planted in the courtyard.The shade of the trees covered most of the villa, and we couldn't see what was going on inside from the door.There were also two cars parked in the courtyard, all of which were luxury cars worth millions.

Press the doorbell, and two seconds later, I heard a cold voice asking, "Who?"

Yang Yuanyi's right eyelid twitched violently for some reason, he raised his hand to press his eyelid and said, "I'm here to apply."

"Yang Yuanyi?"

"I'm."

There was silence for a long time, the iron door opened with a 'snap', and it wasn't long after Yang Yuanyi walked in.The iron door closed slowly, and then bounced back with a violent crashing sound.

Yang Yuan was startled, turned around to look at the iron gate, frowned and remained silent for a moment before walking firmly towards the villa.His savings were almost exhausted, and his rent was due, so he could only sleep on the street if he had no more money.

There is an iron sheet at the entrance of the villa, with a few simple words 'monster reasoning agency'.The whole villa is old in style and looks lifeless, but it is well maintained. The stone steps, wall coverings and small decorations on the walls are not damaged.As soon as Yang Yuan pushed the door, he found that the door was not closed, so he pushed the door and went in.

There were four people inside the door. When they heard the voice, they all turned their heads and stared at Yang Yuanyi.Although it fell silent for a moment, Yang Yuanyi still found that the inside of the villa was different from the lifeless outside, and the atmosphere was quite lively.

A thin figure suddenly appeared in front of Yang Yuanyi, very fast and caught off guard.Yang Yuanyi's pupils constricted, and his heart constricted in an instant, staring at the boy who suddenly appeared in front of him.

He has a cute baby face that will be pinched when he goes out, and he looks only sixteen or seventeen years old.Looking at Yang Yuanyi curiously, Yang Yuanyi did not dare to relax. Although he was not malicious, the speed just now was too weird.

Wang Xiaohong suddenly showed a big and cute smiling face: "Don't be afraid, I have practiced boxing kung fu so I am very fast. The boss said that there is a newcomer today, is it you?"

Yang Yuan nodded calmly.

Wang Xiaohong: "My name is Wang Xiaohong." He pointed to the back with his thumbs up, and introduced them one by one: "The beautiful and cold sister is Xia Lanlan, and the cold and ruthless brother is Wu Wei. They are in charge of the forward and the bad guys. He is Sun Xiaohong. old--"

Yang Yuan looked at the old man named Sun. The old man was really old. His back was hunched, and the skin all over his body was wrinkled.He has seen the bark of an old tree hundreds of years old, dark and cracked, and the skin of the old man makes him think it is the bark of an old tree.He even suspected that if Elder Sun took two steps, he would die if he panted a second faster.

Holding a ten-centimeter-thick book in his hand, Elder Sun raised his eyelids, but the cloudy eyes had an extremely sharp light.Yang Yuanyi seemed to be seen by him as if he had no secrets, and he felt uncomfortable.

Xia Lanlan and Wu Wei glanced at Yang Yuan and continued to work. Elder Sun said, "Come here and sign the contract."

Wang Xiaohong ran behind Yang Yuanyi and pushed him forward: "It's great, I finally have a newcomer to accompany me on a mission." He snatched the contract and pen from Old Sun and put them in front of Yang Yuanyi, squatting obediently He said in front of him, "Hurry up and sign."

Yang Yuan picked up the contract and read it carefully, but found no loopholes.He asked: "If I am admitted, what will be the main job?"

Wang Xiaohong looked at Sun Lao, who replied slowly: "The society will accept the task entrusted by the employer, and you are responsible for investigating the situation, leading to—" He looked up at Yang Yuanyi, and then said: "Just investigate the situation , report at any time."

Yang Yuanyi took a deep breath: "Is life in danger?"

"There is a certain danger."

Yang Yuan felt withdrawn at the same time. Although he was short of money, he would not risk his life to make money.Sun Lao continued: "After the trial period, each task will be divided into one million."

Yang Yuanyi was a little moved, and Elder Sun continued: "You just need to investigate the situation according to the information sent to you. Broadly speaking, it's just a clerical job."

Yang Yuan kept staring at Elder Sun, but no emotion could be seen from that old bark-like face.So he looked at Wang Xiaohong, who convinced him with a kind and harmless smile.So Yang Yuanyi signed his name on the contract, and then handed the contract to Mr. Sun.He hesitated and asked: "The letter said that the reasoning agency provides accommodation..."

"That's right. If you move in tomorrow, I need to arrange a house." Sun Lao put the contract in the book, and took out five sheets of paper from the book and handed it to Yang Yuanyi: "Start work today, take the documents and read them. "

Only then did Yang Yuanyi notice that the ten-centimeter-thick notebook in Old Sun's hand was a file. He took five sheets of paper and looked down in surprise.The first sheet of paper is impressively bloody human organs and messy limbs, five consecutive sheets are all dismembered limbs, the picture is very bloody and brutal.

"Serial murder?"

Elder Sun noticed Yang Yuanyi's overly calm expression, and secretly nodded with satisfaction.He said: "It is indeed a serial murder case. You need to find out the characteristics of the murderer. I will send you other detailed information later. Add it on WeChat."

Yang Yuanyi always felt that WeChat was two worlds away from Mr. Sun, but he still added WeChat.Mr. Sun introduced to him: "The members of the reasoning club are all present, but you haven't met the president, so it doesn't matter if you don't see him. The villa has four floors, the second floor is for people, and the third floor is where the president lives. The third and fourth floors If you have nothing to do with the first two floors, don’t go up, it’s not good for you.”

Yang Yuanyi is not very curious, he just wants to have a place to live and make money.

Without the exuberant curiosity of young people, blind to bloody and messy limbs, and unafraid of ordinary scary things, they are simply born to do what they do.Elder Sun was very satisfied with Yang Yuanyi, so he became much more amiable.

Next, Wang Xiaohong accompanied Yang Yuanyi to familiarize himself with the reasoning agency, and finally sent him out the door.Wang Xiaohong said: "Russian dolls are popular in N city recently. If you see someone selling dolls, you'd better not buy them."

Yang Yuan raised his head: "Why?"

Wang Xiaohong said calmly: "Because they are all lies."

Yang Yuanyi: "I don't have money to buy either."

He said goodbye to Wang Xiaohong, took the materials and left the villa, and then walked along the Xiaguan District to get familiar with the area.Xiaguan District is very quiet in the city center, and you have to have money and connections to buy a house here.There is a street outside Xiaguan District, leaving that street to the most prosperous area in the city center.

After walking all the way and shopping in the city center, it was already night when I took the bus back to the rented house.When Yang Yuan got out of the car, he checked the time by the street lamp, it was 8:44.

The neighborhood is outside the customs, and the law and order are not good.Three or four street lamps were broken, but no one came to fix them, and the surroundings were extremely quiet.Even the usual barking of dogs has quieted down, leaving only the sound of footsteps.

As soon as Yang Yuan quickened his pace, he stopped suddenly not far from the unit building.There was a street lamp ten meters ahead, and a figure crouched under the lamp.After hesitating for a moment, Yang Yuanyi buried his head and hurried over. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of a piece of floral cloth spread out in front of the backlit figure, on which a Russian doll was placed.

The matryoshka doll was about half a meter tall, and its smiling face looked particularly eerie and creepy under the pale light.Yang Yuan's eyelids twitched violently, and he quickly ran into the unit building while pressing his eyelids.

The voice-activated lights in the corridor turned on and off, only the sound of his footsteps kept ringing.Yang Yuanyi's house is on the seventh floor, and there are three families on each floor.When he opened the door, he suddenly felt the hairs on his neck stand on end, his eyelids twitched wildly, and he turned around suddenly, in front of him was a strange smiling doll.

Yang Yuan was expressionless, staring at the child next door.The child's name is Ah Zheng, around 13 years old, nearly 1.6 meters tall, and very fat.Holding a half-meter-tall Russian matryoshka in his arms, he curled his lips in displeasure: "What kind of weirdo?! I'm not afraid at all."

Yang Yuanyi stared at him indifferently, and Ah Zheng was very uncomfortable being stared at. He turned around and walked to the door of his house with the matryoshka in his arms.Yang Yuanyi asked him, "Did you buy it downstairs?"

Seeing that he was asking about the Russian doll in his arms, Ah Zheng rolled his eyes: "None of your business!"

Yang Yuan opened the door and said: "I advise you, just throw it away." After finishing speaking, he closed the door, leaving Ah Zheng with a puzzled expression on his face: "Crazy."

When Yang Yuanyi was passing by the stall downstairs, he saw the half-meter-tall Russian doll oozing blood.

The unit of urban anecdotes is the horror urban legends of various countries, which are concretized because of their wide spread.

The task of the reasoning agency is to deal with these harmful concrete legends.
