A broken corpse, surrounded by enemies, and thunder roars from all directions!

After seven o'clock in the evening, Chen Chong and others gathered in the private room of the hotel restaurant, holding their mobile phones one by one, constantly refreshing the latest reports on the "corpse incident".

"It's really a god to die my food street." Fatty Li is usually a very edible person, but at this moment, facing a table full of delicious food, he was too lazy to move his chopsticks.

"Li Xiang, what do you say from your grandfather?" Qiu Tong asked.

"After he received the police's notice, he arranged for the property staff of the food street to provide safety notices to all merchants and guests."

Li Xiang frowned and her fingers slid every time on the screen of her phone. "I just called the security captain. He said that after the notification was released, although the merchants were very helpless, they did not go against the trend and were all hurrying to end their business. As for those customers, most of them complained a few times, it would be fine. According to the latest news, the food street was completely empty at this time."

After the words came, Li Xiang shook the food on the table with chopsticks, but she couldn't choose the food she liked. Then she slapped the chopsticks at night with a "splash" and continued to say, "And I heard from my grandfather that there seemed to be a new move on the board of directors. What's more, I will not know until the meeting tomorrow. Grandpa guessed that it was definitely not a good thing. They are really a group of old guys who forget their righteousness when they see profit."

"Girl, don't be angry, it's all human nature." Aunt Bai gently rubbed Li Xiang's head. "The situation in the food street is very bad now. Those directors who live as adults must seek good luck and avoid bad luck and reduce their losses to the lowest point."

"I understand the truth, but..." Li Xiang wanted to refute a few words but couldn't find a reasonable statement. She could only sigh and continue to browse the news.

"Chen Chong, are the little guys in your group saying true?" Zhou Charlie suddenly asked.

"It's true." Chen Chong nodded, picked up a piece of braised pork with chopsticks and put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly. The meat was very tender and chewy. The gravy hidden in the meat pattern spread out under the squeeze of the teeth. The aroma of the meat and the sauce raged in the mouth, which was very delicious.

I have to say that at this moment, only he can calm down and taste the food.

"It seems that things are even more serious than I thought." Charlie Zhou shook his head.

"That's not. If it's not serious, the Dragon Master Conference will directly seal the back door and strictly prohibit students from entering and leaving the food street at will." Fatty Hu Er said: "The food street will definitely have no business tomorrow. If I were to close the door and rest and go out for a trip and relax."

"What if you just left and caught the murderer?" Fatty Li asked back.

"This..." Fatty Hu Er was stunned for two seconds and hummed: "If this is the case, that would be great, alas."

A sigh instantly calmed the atmosphere.

"Here you come!" Suddenly, Charlie Zhou screamed strangely.

Everyone immediately realized what he was referring to, and quickly swiped their phones, and the latest news about the "corpse" popped up on the interface.

Thriller! Follow-up report on the ‘corpse incident’ on Dongcheng Road, Food Street, University Town...

Click to view.

The reporter just came from the scene. At 5:56 local time, a man was attracted by a pile of debris in the flower bed on the side of the road when he passed by Dongcheng Road. He was curious and went up to check it out and was immediately scared and sweated. It turned out that the debris was a piece of clothing stained with blood, his body was deformed, and his arms were missing.

The man called the police immediately and then provided the latest news to our reporter.

At present, the police have completely blocked the case site, and the reporter learned that the body should be a middle-aged or elderly man, short, and his face was deliberately damaged and he could not distinguish his appearance.

According to the preliminary judgment of the forensic doctor, the death time of the corpse is at least twenty-four hours, the body is stiff, the back is swollen, and there are obvious corpse spots.

In addition, the body was covered in foul smell, as if it had been soaked in a stinky ditch for a long time. Therefore, the police concluded that the place where the body was found was definitely not the first case, and the deceased's arms were not found near the flower bed.

However, even so, the police found clues from the deceased's clothes. The reporter learned that the deceased's clothes were a broken security uniform. Compared with the registration of missing persons yesterday, the deceased was the security guard at Tianlu Cinema, University Town.

What is even more surprising is that just yesterday, a college student fell into a well after a college student fell into a well. Fortunately, rescuers arrived in time and rescued the injured. But because of this, the police found an arm in the sewage well.

It can be seen from this that the two incidents should have been done by the same person, and the other arm has not been found yet. The police have arranged personnel to start checking the sewage wells. Please pay attention to the latest news.

The latest news ends here, and Aunt Bai and Li Xiang's faces looked ugly. I guess they were scared by the news content.

"Why did the security guard at Tianlu Cinema appear on Dongcheng Street?" Fatty Li was not affected and said suspiciously: "The two places are at least two or three kilometers apart, right?"

"Who can answer you this question? Just ask the murderer himself." Zhou Charlie said contemptuously.

"Ask the murderer? Just kidding, this kind of person is just a pervert, who dares to go..." Fatty Li muttered and rolled his eyes, but before he could finish his words, he suddenly thought of something, so he looked at Chen Chong, who was in deep thought without a trace.

Yes, he dares!

"It's time, I'm still kidding." Qiu Tong stopped the boring conversation between the two, "Didn't you find any point?"

"What's the point?" asked Aunt Bai.

"Look, the news says that the corpse on Dongcheng Street was missing two arms, and the day before, an arm also appeared in Tianlu Cinema." Qiu Tong subconsciously leaned forward and lowered his voice.

Aunt Bai was puzzled, and Li Xiang was also full of confusion.

"The news says that forensics inferred that the death of the body was twenty-four hours after the death of the corpse. In other words, Tianlu Cinema is most likely to be close to the first case." Qiu Tong explained.

"What do you want to say?" asked Fatty Hu Er.

"I want to say that since Tianlu Cinema is closer to the location of the case, why did the murderer move the body to a food street two or three kilometers away after killing the person?" Qiu Tong looked serious.

"It's intentional." Fatty Li rubbed his chin, as if he was analyzing it carefully.

"Aren't you talking nonsense? Moving over from afar, it's not intentional." Charlie Zhou laughed and dispelled the solemn atmosphere a lot.

"After that being said, if the first two incidents were put together, the murderer's purpose seemed to be to achieve some unknown purpose in the same place." Chen Chong suddenly spoke, and was about to continue analyzing, when the cell phone on the desk rang. He picked it up and saw that it was an unfamiliar number.

"Hey." Without much hesitation, he directly slid to answer.

The phone receiver is not very small, but not very big. Others can only hear the voice of a man, and the specific content is not clear.

However, seeing Chen Chong's gradually solemn expression, he seemed to hear some bad news.

Clang.

The call did not last long, and Chen Chong put down his cell phone.

"Who?" Li Xiang asked subconsciously.

"I am an old customer of mine, named Jiang Xin." Chen Chong did not hide it and told everyone else everything Jiang Xin told him.

"What? He was the one who fell into the well yesterday?" After hearing this, everyone was surprised and thought to himself that he was really sleepy and met the pillow and fate.

"According to what Jiang Xin said, isn't there a mysterious animal hidden in the sewer of Tianlu Cinema?" Aunt Bai seemed to have found some huge secret, and her face was full of shock.

"It's also your old customer's fate." Qiu Tong was shocked and sweated coldly. It's no wonder he was like this. Looking at the broken corpse, it's not difficult to understand the meaning of this sentence.

"Indeed." Chen Chong did not deny it, "but I always feel that if it was really an animal, then how should the first two incidents be explained?"

"What do you mean?" Li Xiang said suspiciously.

"I guess Jiang Xin was in a panic and misjudged. It should not be an animal, but a human!" Chen Chong said astonishingly, "Only in this way can we explain the corpse. After all, animals will not move the corpse two or three kilometers away to the flower bed on Dongcheng Street."

"Your explanation is quite far-fetched. Have you ever seen the animal world? Those large animals love to drag food to their own territory." Li Xiang retorted.

"Then how do you explain the person you saw by passers-by the last two times?" Chen Chong said.

"Uh..." Li Xiang's rebuttal was a whim, but when asked back, how could she explain it clearly?

"Can the victims have something in common that causes the murderer's murderous intent? Otherwise, it would be hard for me to imagine why the murderer had to travel thousands of miles to Tianlu Cinema to kill people, and then move the body back to the unified location." Qiu Tong said.

"One is an anchor dressed as a man, the other is a coach at the fitness center, and the last one is a security guard at the cinema. What do these three people have in common? It's completely incompatible." Hu Er said with a fat man waving his finger.

"I said you guys are OK, they all pretend to be like big detectives, but in fact they can't analyze anything. Let's have a meal quickly." Li Xiang rolled her eyes, making Aunt Bai laugh.

Hearing this, Fatty Li and others looked embarrassed and wanted to say something else, so they had to take it back. Indeed, for unprofessional laymen like them, analyzing cases can only be divided into a superficial phenomenon. They can't understand the deep-seated problems at all, and they can't think of them correctly. They are simply enjoying their mouths.

"Wait a moment."

Chen Chong suddenly waved his hand and interrupted, "Maybe we didn't analyze it correctly, but there is one thing worth noting."

"What is it?" Li Xiangnu said.

"The way the murderer moves..." Chen Chong looked at the busy road outside the window, "There are one similarities in the three cases, that is, except for the accidents of witnesses, there is no trace of the murderer at all."

"Yes, otherwise the police would have caught the murderer long ago." Li Xiang shrugged.

"But, Jiang Xin's incident made me guess a possibility." Chen Chong tapped the table with his fingers, "Maybe the murderer has never moved on the normal route, such as... a sewage well."

"You mean, the murderer has been hiding his traces by relying on the city's drainage system?" Qiu Tong was the first to react.

"That's right." Chen Chong nodded, "Under normal circumstances, no one would think about the city's drainage system, because it was filled with darkness, dirty and unknown. Without a clear pipeline layout, it would be difficult to walk from place to another place. No, it may not be appropriate to describe it as walking, because the diameter of the sewer pipe is not high, and it is impossible to walk upright throughout the whole process. The most important thing is that people are in such a closed and smelly space, it is difficult for people to survive for a long time and will inhale various harmful gases."

"But if these difficulties can be overcome, then the murderer is walking on a safe road that will not be revealed." Zhou Charlie concluded.

"So that's it." Chen Chong nodded, "This can also explain why the body only appeared on Dongcheng Road twenty-four hours later. Because the environment of the sewer will limit the mobility of the murderer."

"Oh my God, what kind of pervert is the murderer? He can survive in that place, and he is also dragging a broken corpse..." Li Xiang was terrified when he heard it.

"It can't be the kind of zombie in the movie, it's not conscious, it's all up to instinct action." Fatty Li said in a shocking way.

"Go and go, don't talk nonsense, that's all made up from the movie." Aunt Bai looked disgusted.

"Then why are we standing there? Tell the police about this conclusion quickly." Li Xiang picked up the phone.

"No need." Chen Chong shook his head, "Although the news did not make it clear, it also mentioned that the police had already begun to check the sewer, which means they had realized it a long time ago. Moreover, the police's handling methods were only unexpected, but they could not do it. They must have known more and not made public."

"It makes sense." Fatty Hu Er nodded in agreement, then his eyes were stunned, "Then what are we discussing here."

"Who knows, it's boring." Li Xiang spread her hands, "Anyway, I hope the police will catch the murderer quickly and free our food street from the panic. Otherwise, I don't know how long my grandfather can stay in the group."

Hearing this, everyone sighed and took a long time to start moving their chopsticks.

The only one who was still frowning was Chen Chong. In his opinion, the drainage network underground in the city was complicated and the disks were more intertwined. It was almost impossible to catch the murderer inside. Unless you could get some clues inside and determine the identity of the murderer.

Of course, the main thing that he is confused about is that he has decided that if he cannot catch the murderer at the end of the game, then he will act as a "ghost helper" and go on the battle in person, so that he can resolve the crisis in the food street as soon as possible.

This crisis is too dangerous. If it continues to heat up, Chen Chong cannot guarantee whether his last trump card works.

...

After dinner, everyone had no intention of going out for a bustling city outside. They were worried and returned to their rooms.

Chen Chong's room was the same as before, and because of the "framework" incident on the first day, the hotel also specially reduced the room fee for all of them, which was a small compensation.

However, Li Xiang and others still didn't know about this matter and thought it was some kind of discount activity launched by the hotel.

Chen Chong took out the door and stuck it in the sensing area of ​​the door and "swipe" it, then two "Didi" sounds, and the door unlocked. He held the handle and pressed it gently, and the door opened.

Wow...

The moment the door was pushed open, a cold wind blew out of the room. It was very fierce and caught off guard, and there was a strong sense of suffocation.

Not only that, when the cold wind emerged, the fierce force seemed to be like someone pushing the door outward from the room to prevent Chen Chong from entering.

"Hey, it turns out that the windows were not closed when I went out in the morning." Chen Chong saw that the window in front was open, and the curtains were swept by the night wind, like signs before the storm came.

He was about to enter the room and inserted the room card into the card slot. With a crisp sound of "click", the lights in the room lighted up and the wind stopped.

Chen Chong didn't care. When he was about to close the window, the door behind him suddenly made a creaking sound. It was slow at first, but then it became faster and faster. When he looked back, he happened to see a loud noise from the door and closed.

but..
