Chapter 100 The Secret of the Tunnel

After a misunderstanding was solved, Drake did not leave immediately, but noticed something unusual from the clues explained by the law enforcers.

There are no surveillance cameras installed near the tunnel, but this is not because they are unwilling to install them, but for some reason, whenever there is a surveillance camera aimed at the tunnel, the surveillance camera will always fail and be damaged due to inexplicable reasons within a short period of time.

.

At first, everyone thought it was some ill-intentioned idiot who did it on purpose, so they sent people to stay on guard. But the strange thing is that even if the people on guard were observing for a day, they did not see anyone destroying the surveillance and the surveillance was still inexplicable.

Damaged.

Over time, the losses were too great, so we stopped installing monitoring equipment near the tunnel, but increased patrols on the street.

"Have you ever investigated the specific reason why the tunnel cannot be used?" Drake curiously asked the two law enforcement officers responsible for the case of the missing teenager.

The middle-aged law enforcer shook his head: "There is no definite answer."

The young law enforcer raised his hand weakly, "But there are several theories about this tunnel."

"What's that?" Drake asked curiously.

The middle-aged law enforcer frowned and glanced at the young law enforcer. He seemed a little dissatisfied with the young law enforcer's imprudent remarks, but seeing that Drake seemed curious about it, he did not stop him.

The young law enforcer said: "This tunnel used to be an air-raid shelter, with a branch road leading underground. But then the world became peaceful and the original air-raid shelter was no longer needed, so it was filled in and rebuilt, turning it into the tunnel it is today."

"I've heard of such a thing." Derek still remembered that the boy had roughly mentioned it to him yesterday.

The young law enforcer suddenly put on a solemn and mysterious look and whispered: "But there is something you don't know. Before this air-raid shelter, this place was actually a mass grave."

Derek frowned and motioned for the young law enforcer to continue.

"It is said that a long time ago, a very serious epidemic occurred near here, and many people died. There was no way to cure the epidemic at that time. In order to deal with the corpses and those who were infected, the government and the uninfected people living here at that time

Those who were infected were buried together with the corpses in mass graves.

Through this approach, the epidemic has indeed been effectively controlled, but this does not mean that everything is worry-free.

After the mass graves were filled up, for some reason people who passed by the mass graves could hear miserable screams, like ghosts wailing. It was very strange. Some people even saw those who died in the mass graves later.

The illusion of wronged souls underground.

This kind of thing continued until one day later, and then suddenly disappeared." The young law enforcer told the story in a cadence, not at all like the serious impression his profession can bring to people, he is more suitable to be a storyteller

people.

Derek sighed: "It's not over yet, right?"

The young law enforcer saw a trace of Drake's impatience, and realized that his habit of talking too much had happened again. He smiled awkwardly, and then said: "Yes. In modern times, countries have become numerous, and heroes have risen together.

During the World War, this mass grave that had been peaceful for hundreds of years was dug up again because air raid shelters were built to allow people to escape the flames of war.

But who knows whether their actions broke some kind of seal, or once again angered the calmed dead souls. What happened back then has come back with aggravation, and there have even been serious deaths.

The workers who dug up tens of thousands of corpses in the mass graves were frightened out of their wits by the horrific death-like skeletons. Some were too timid and accidentally fell into the corpse pit through the dug holes.

Among them, the bodies were penetrated by one of the twisted and sharp bones. Some people died on the spot, while others died of wound infections of unknown causes that were difficult to cure. Without exception, they all died.

However, the death of several workers did not stop the government at that time from completing the construction. They insisted on digging air-raid shelters, transporting all the corpses in the mass graves one by one, and throwing them into the sea, hoping that the horror and weirdness would drift with the tide and remain silent in the ocean.

In the sea, work continued.

After several twists and turns, the air-raid shelter was built, but when it was actually put into use, the mysterious power lingering in the air-raid shelter did not leave.

When the war broke out and the enemy air raided the city, all the people who hid in this air-raid shelter were driven crazy or killed by the mysterious power in the air-raid shelter. When people at the time learned of this horrifying rumor,

, since then no one has ever gone down to this air-raid shelter.

And just like in the past, the air-raid shelters stopped acting like monsters one day, and people took the opportunity to block up the air-raid shelters and transform them into today's tunnels, which are used as ordinary roads."

After listening to the strange story of the young law enforcer, Drake did not rush to criticize or deny the authenticity of the story, but asked: "Have you never thought of completely blocking this air raid shelter?"

Why is there still a tunnel left?

The young law enforcer spread his hands and said: "I don't know about this. It seems that someone has given me guidance, saying that just like you can't cut off a person's path, you should leave a line in your work, so you should also leave a line for the 'good brothers' in the underground."

The tone opened such a tunnel."

Drake fell silent. It wasn't that he didn't believe in the theory of Feng Shui exploration, but what the young law enforcer said sounded too metaphysical, making it hard for him to believe it.

"Okay, please don't mislead Mr. Drake." The middle-aged law enforcer couldn't bear to listen anymore. He couldn't help but patted the young law enforcer on the back, and then looked at Derek apologetically.

gram.

When Drake heard this, he smiled and said, "No, don't say that. In fact, it helped me broaden my thinking."

This statement is not false. Although the bizarre story told by the young law enforcement officer may contain a lot of distortion in the process of information dissemination, this does not mean that the content is meaningless.

The mass grave incident may be true, at least the story mentioned a terrifying local vicious epidemic, and he immediately thought of the shark disease he was suffering from.

If it was a shark disease, people at that time were really helpless. After all, it was a "disease" that even modern technology and medicine could not detect and cure.

Drake also doesn’t know whether shark disease is a “disease”, a special “evolution” of human beings, or an atavistic “degeneration”.

But after all, the Merman Disease would make him fall out of the category of a normal human being, and he didn't want to become that kind of monster that lost his humanity and reason.

It was also because he thought that mass graves might be related to the shark disease that Drake couldn't help but re-examine this tunnel.

Under this tunnel, there may be secrets about those fish people and big fish.

I'll update it first today, I'm forced to work overtime again, I'll make it up to you later (sigh)
