Well of Mystery

Huang Xiuqi and Li Mian muttered for a while, and finally came out of the basement.Seeing that neither of them mentioned what happened, Bai Xiuqi and Jiang Chenglu didn't ask any further questions, and the four of them continued to walk towards the auditorium.

It was a coincidence that the end of the passage happened to be the basement of the auditorium.When Huang Xiuqi opened the last iron door with the key, Bai Xiuqi whispered in her ear: "There is a dead body ahead, be careful."

The stale and mildewed smell rushed over, and the messy warehouse was vaguely displayed in front of everyone.Jiang Chenglu found the switch on the wall based on his memory. The pale light made everyone unable to open their eyes for a while.

After two or three seconds, Bai Xiuqi suddenly heard Jiang Chenglu mutter something.

"Hey, what about the dead?"

Bai Xiuqi quickly opened his eyes, and found that the straw mat that was used to wrap the mouse's body just now was lying on the side of the open space, but it was completely spread out.

The body was gone!

Bai Xiuqi and Jiang Chenglu looked at each other, but did not hesitate for too long.Not many people knew that the rat's body was placed here, not to mention that the basement door was locked and could not be opened from the outside without a key.

After multiple eliminations, there is only one possibility left.

"Tang Yilang! He must have moved the corpse!"

Bai Xiuqi was excited for a second, then calmed down quickly: "But why did he do this?"

Talking to himself is useless after all, after finding Tang Yilang, everything will be easy to talk about.So they bypassed the straw mats and continued on, opened the basement door and went up.

The rain outside is getting heavier and heavier, and the people who went out to work have returned one after another.Because strong winds could shatter the tempered glass doors and windows on the outside of the building at any time, all those who came to seek refuge were required to gather in the center of the auditorium.Three neat rows of straw mats were spread on the log-colored floor, and the residents of the island chatted in twos and threes.The organizers were very thoughtful. In order to prevent everyone from being bored, they not only scrolled the movies on the big screen, set up a small shop, but also placed a lot of books in the venue for free borrowing.

In order to avoid alarming the enemy.Huang Xiuqi and Li Mian decided to find a place to hide first, and Bai Xiuqi and Jiang Chenglu came forward to find Tang Yilang, and then brought him to discuss in detail.

But Bai Xiuqi walked around the auditorium twice, and Jiang Chenglu even searched around outside the auditorium.None of them found what they were looking for.

Tang Yilang just disappeared?

Huang Xiuqi and Li Mian were still waiting, so they decided to go back and report first.

It was a small room on the second floor at the back of the auditorium.Almost filled with all kinds of machines, the side facing the auditorium is a soundproof glass wall, and facing the glass is a mixing console.

Obviously, this is the control room of the entire auditorium, so the sound insulation is naturally very good, and the movement inside cannot be seen from the outside.As soon as Jiang Chenglu, who was walking behind, closed the door, Huang Xiuqi couldn't wait to ask, "Where's the person?"

Bai Xiuqi shook his head, and Jiang Chenglu spread his hands.

"Absconding in fear of crime?" Huang Xiuqi suddenly became nervous: "Will you just sail away by boat?!"

"It's unlikely." Li Mian shook his head.

"With the weather like this, unless they want to die, they must still be somewhere on the island. But we don't have much time. We must find him before the typhoon subsides."

"Do you want to tell Momo to look for it together?" Huang Xiuqi suggested, "Tang Yilang is suspected of murdering my father and the mouse. We should also let everyone know how dangerous he is."

"But it may also cause riots." Bai Xiuqi reminded: "Besides, if Tang Yilang is not the only murderer, wouldn't doing so be a warning?"

Both of them felt they had a point.After staring at each other for a few seconds, they suddenly turned their gazes to Jiang Chenglu.

"..." Jiang Chenglu rubbed his nose and swallowed heavily.

At this moment, Li Mian suddenly reached out and knocked on the glass wall in front of the mixer: "Wait, those people below...why are they looking at us?"

When he mentioned this, several other people also ran to the side of the mixer and looked out.The people who were originally scattered in the auditorium in twos and threes now all raised their heads and showed expressions of astonishment towards this side.

"……I go!"

Jiang Chenglu was the first to discover the mystery.He pointed to the green button on the mixer, then looked at Huang Xiuqi: "Who turned it on? What did you do?"

"Of course not!" Huang Xiuqi also looked shocked: "That is to say, everyone outside heard what we just said?"

Jiang Chenglu nodded, and before he had time to say a few more words, there was a hasty knock on the door outside.

Everything that followed was messed up.

The crowd swarmed over, asking almost the same questions over and over again.There is no way to avoid it.Several people hid in the room to discuss ways to get out, and finally decided to selectively disclose some inside information to everyone in the auditorium.

Although Huang Xiuqi was reluctant, she was the only one of the four who was somewhat well-known, so she was coaxed and tricked by Jiang Chenglu to act as the spokesperson.

But she had just awkwardly announced her name when she suddenly saw the side door of the auditorium on the lower right of the glass window being pushed open.A guy in a yellow raincoat stumbled in, covered his stomach, and fell to the ground within a few steps.

Bright red blood mixed with rainwater gurgled out.

This time, it was really messed up.

----

Huang Xiuqi's speech was interrupted.Bai Xiuqi and Jiang Chenglu ran downstairs first.The injured man was already surrounded by everyone. He was a worker under Huang Xiangyuan. Just now Bai Xiuqi saw him carrying sandbags outside. Fortunately, the doctor on the island also took refuge in the auditorium, so he came to check with the first aid kit. .It was found that three wounds five to six inches long had been cut sharply on his lower abdomen. A lot of blood flowed out, but no internal organs were injured.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of the inspection, Jiang Chenglu went over to ask what happened and whether it had something to do with Tang Yilang.Who knew that the man had a pale face and only said two words over and over again.

"Sea monster, sea monster..."

Bai Xiuqi on the side was about to roll her eyes - isn't this distasteful enough for the situation? !

After a lot of persuasion, the injured man finally told the general story of the incident bit by bit: when he was moving the sandbags just now, he suddenly remembered that there was still a valuable item in the house that he hadn't taken, so he rushed back in the wind and rain. I went to pick it up at home, but ran into something unbelievable on the way back to the auditorium.

It was a guy who looked like a human from a distance and was also wearing human clothes.It moved very slowly, and looked like a poor passerby who was suffering from the wind and rain.The man was kind and wanted to take him to the auditorium to shelter from the rain, but when he got closer, Hun'er was almost scared away.

That person's head looked bigger than a normal person's, and his gray-white skin looked like a corpse that had been soaked in seawater for several days.The facial features seemed to be present, but they were all swollen and shifted, and the two eyeballs were white, reminiscent of boiled fish eyes.

How can such a monster that makes people fly out of their minds appear in a stormy typhoon day without scaring people out of their wits?The man trembled like a wobble, slipped his foot and slid down the steep slope, and may have hit a broken glass window or some other sharp object halfway, and he became the current embarrassed appearance.

Sea monsters, are there really sea monsters in typhoon days?Before the problem was clarified, the news spread layer by layer, and a small climax of fear suddenly set off in the auditorium.

To tell the truth, Bai Xiuqi felt a little hairy in his heart. After following Jiang Chenglu for so long, he really believed that there must be such things as sea monsters in this world.However, he thought about it again, what kind of sea monster might not be enough for Jiang Chenglu, an old dragon.

But at this time, Jiang Chenglu found another way and noticed another detail.

He asked the injured man: "You just said that the sea monster was wearing human clothes? What exactly does it look like?"

"Shirt and jeans, both blue."

"What about the shoes?"

"... I didn't look carefully, it seems to be barefoot?"

"How's your height?"

"Very thin, very short... so the head looks bigger."

Jiang Chenglu didn't say anything else, he called Bai Xiuqi and others aside, and then took out his mobile phone.

The last time Bai Xiuqi changed his phone on his own initiative, he knew that Jiang Chenglu had the habit of filming the scene of tragedies.And what he showed at this moment was the death scene of the mouse not long ago.

The clothes and body shape of the mouse obviously matched the description of the injured man.

"But the mouse is already dead." Bai Xiuqi didn't doubt her eyes: "The head is boiled and still alive, this is not a human, is it Xiaoqiang?!"

"You've been with me for so long, why are you still so low?" Jiang Chenglu said with contempt on his face, "Who said that only living people can walk around? Think about the coffin we saw this morning." !"

"Coffin, what coffin? What are you two talking about? Is there something else you are hiding from us?"

Huang Xiuqi couldn't stand listening any longer, and policeman Li Mian was even more astonished and suspicious.

I feel that if this continues, the truth will surface sooner or later.Jiang Chenglu signaled the two of them to be safe and calm, and was about to advise them to find a place where there were no crowds to watch, when suddenly there was a burst of electrical noise from a loudspeaker high above their heads.

Could it be that the microphone in the control room was turned on again?

Bai Xiuqi was wondering, and then he heard a heavy sigh coming from the loudspeaker.

"Help"

The originally noisy auditorium suddenly fell silent, only the sound of wind and rain outside.After that sigh, it took a long time before the second sentence came out from the loudspeaker.

"Save...save me...I'm Tang Yilang."

As soon as this remark came out, the crowd burst into an uproar.
