The rain is still falling.
The girl looked to be about five or six years old at most, with unkempt hair and shabby clothes. She stood barefoot in the rain, with a pair of blood-colored eyes that were particularly bright.
She stood quietly in the corner, staring in the direction the woman was leaving. Her breath seemed to be integrated with the rain curtain, so much so that Lu Zhan almost didn't notice her presence.
This is no small matter.
Lu Zhan knew very well that what he just witnessed was not completely real, so he was indifferent when the fat woman was killed. And when he saw the little girl, he couldn't tell what the other person was for a moment.
Does it really exist?
The red-eyed girl didn't even look at him, but quietly watched the woman disappear into the rain. After a while, she walked out of the corner and followed her, letting the rain fall on her body.
"What's going on with this guy..."
Lu Zhan's heart tightened involuntarily, he just felt that this girl was a little weird.
I don’t know if this guy is the person in the story. If not, doesn’t it mean that this kid comes from Hidden Beast Mountain?
But he knew very well that although the old beggar did not tell the whole story about the situation in Qianshou Mountain, he made it clear that there was no one on Qianshou Mountain anymore.
After thinking for a while, he decided to follow up and take a look. After all, both the woman holding the child and the red-eyed girl seemed to have some secrets that deserved careful attention.
He was actually certain that the woman holding the child was the woman that Xia Yuxi and the artist had worked together to see from the mind of the gravekeeper——
That is to say, there are existences called evil spirits.
In his opinion, since this memory came from the tomb keeper, the woman is likely to have some connection with the tomb keeper, and the tomb keeper may even be the woman's child.
In short, we must take this opportunity to study it carefully.
Lu Zhan is not in a hurry to find Bai Mo. The only thing he is worried about now is the reason why the hate invitation changed the content on the invitation——
Is it really because the being behind it is afraid of the tombkeeper? Or does it have other motives?
Although Qianshou Mountain has not shown too much danger for the time being, it is definitely capable of troubleshooting, from the corpse on the way up the mountain to the old beggar on the way, and then to this place...
It always feels like it's meant to convey some kind of message.
Even the old beggar said the money to buy his life was like this. After hearing this, he always had a bad feeling, but he felt that he couldn't stop it, so he agreed to let the old beggar leave.
It's messy, it's really messy.
Lu Zhan pressed his sore eyebrows. Faced with the taboo sequence of tomb keeper, which contained important secrets, he actually felt that reporting to the council was the best option.
However, the higher-ups didn't seem to have this idea, and he didn't have to change those guys' decisions.
After withdrawing his thoughts, he sighed slightly, picked up the restless big yellow dog and walked into the rain curtain.
The streets were empty, not a single passerby.
The style of the building is similar to today, but there are still some differences that can be seen, and it is obviously not of this era.
So, is there really an era that even Parliament doesn’t know about?
Or is it that the parliament actually knew but hid the relevant information?
Lu Zhan took a deep breath, followed the woman's traces, and soon came to the door of a building similar to a coffee shop.
The door of the coffee shop was ajar, and he opened it carefully without hesitation.
The room is unexpectedly bright, the lighting is soft and warm, and the decoration is quite elegant. Combined with the soothing music, people can't help but feel a sense of tranquility.
Lu Zhan listened carefully for a moment and soon determined that he had not heard a song of a similar style. He secretly wrote down the melody and lyrics, planning to go back and let Qingqing check it out.
After all, that guy is best at similar things.
"Mr. Luo, you are here."
Just as Lu Zhan was searching for traces of women and girls, a calm female voice suddenly sounded from the corner of the coffee shop. He followed the sound and saw a young woman in a black dress getting up from her seat and looking at him respectfully.
.
Seeing the other person's eyes falling on him, Lu Zhan's heart tightened. Who is this guy talking to?
What about the woman and the girl?
"Mr. Luo, what's wrong with you?"
As if aware of Lu Zhan's absence, the woman spoke again, with a bit of confusion in her tone.
Lu Zhan was sure that the other party was indeed talking to him, so he calmed down and walked directly to the woman and sat down.
It seems like this is turning me into a character in the story...
"What's up?"
He looked calm and asked tentatively, intending to wait and see what would happen.
"I really need your help with something."
The woman smiled slightly and said, "First time we meet, my name is Jiang Xue, from the Prison Suppression Department."
The Prison Secretary...
Lu Zhan remained silent. In fact, he really didn't know what to say. After all, he didn't even know who "Mr. Luo" was.
"I know Mr. Luo is pressed for time, so I'll keep the story short."
Perhaps because Mr. Luo's character is taciturn, Jiang Xue didn't say much, but went straight to the point.
She said seriously: "There have been many cases of missing children in the city recently, and they are suspected to be caused by evil spirits."
"Afterwards, we conducted a preliminary investigation on the scope of the evil ghost's activities immediately and got some clues."
Jiang Xue took out her mobile phone, put it in front of Lu Zhan, and said, "The evil ghost has been taking away children nearby, centered on the abandoned hut we first discovered. But for some reason, the radius of the evil ghost's activities is getting wider and wider.
Small."
Lu Zhan listened quietly. Is it really related to that matter...
Jiang Xue continued: "This is obviously abnormal. After all, no matter from any angle, the evil ghost's activity radius should only be getting larger and larger, otherwise it will only increase the probability of it being discovered, unless... it
Not afraid of being discovered."
Lu Zhan's heart moved and he said calmly: "Then is there such a possibility - is there any reason to restrict the activities of evil spirits?"
Jiang Xue was stunned and asked: "What's the reason?"
"She's pregnant."
"Pregnant, can evil ghosts get pregnant?" Jiang Xue's face showed obvious confusion, "But as far as I know, evil ghosts cannot get pregnant, and...how do you know?"
This time Lu Zhan was stunned. The evil ghost couldn't get pregnant? But didn't the female evil ghost give birth to a child?
"Evil spirits can get pregnant."
At this moment, a cold child's voice sounded beside him. Lu Zhan suddenly turned his head and saw the girl with red eyes appearing beside him at some unknown moment.
He was a little creepy. How did this guy get so close to him? He actually didn't notice anything.
"Mr. Luo, what are you looking at?" Jiang Xue asked doubtfully.
She obviously didn't see the red-eyed girl.
"It's nothing." Lu Zhan turned around and said calmly, "It doesn't matter how I know it, but evil spirits can indeed get pregnant."
Seeing that the girl with red eyes made no move, he actually chose to copy her words directly.
"But I've never heard of such a thing..."
"If an evil spirit combines with a human, it is possible to get pregnant, but the probability is quite low."
Lu Zhan was about to speak when the red-eyed girl's voice sounded in his ears again, "However, due to the lack of vitality of evil spirits, the children in the body often die before birth, so there are rumors that evil ghosts cannot get pregnant."
Is this guy... helping me?
Lu Zhan's heart moved and he repeated the girl's words again.
Without waiting for Jiang Xue to speak, he continued: "Take me to the cabin you found."
Jiang Xue didn't say much and led Lu Zhan out of the store.
"It actually rained."
She looked at the sky, went back to the store to get two umbrellas, and then walked into the rain. The streets were clearly deserted, but she didn't find it strange. She even talked and laughed with the air from time to time, which looked a little weird.
Lu Zhan held an umbrella and followed her. When he turned around, he saw the red-eyed girl following her with an unusually calm expression.
To be continued...
