Several people looked in the direction he pointed.

He was pointing to Building 7, which was right across from Lao Chi's house and could be observed from his balcony.

Qi Yi took out the flashlight from the survey box and shined it into the green belt. He looked at it for a moment, then simply put on his shoe covers and stepped over the edge of the shrubs and walked into the lawn.

Outside the green belt is the entrance to the community where people come and go. The further you go inside, the less humane it becomes.

"Don't panic, Lao Qi! People say that once bitten by a snake, you are afraid of the well rope for ten years, but you still go up to it. Do you still want to hang yourself on it or what? Master just said that you are a leftist

You didn’t even hear it, did you?” Lao Chi hurriedly chased after him, because he was worried that the shadow was still there.

Old Mao pulled the two survey boxes hanging on his shoulders and asked the young apprentice to look around, and then followed him into the lawn.

Qi Yi turned on a strong flashlight, and the beam swept through the dense grass, making shadows blurry.

His eyes wandered back and forth, and he found a few strange shallow footprints on the edge of a shrub pruned into a ball shape.

Qi Yi walked over and squatted down to stare at the footprints.

"Team Mao, Lao Chi!"

Mao Ning'an and Lao Chi walked to Qi Yi, and Qi Yi took out his mobile phone and took a few pictures.

"This footprint is a bit strange..." Mao Ning'an came a step late and took out his SLR to take pictures.

There is no grass in this area, and a small piece of black soil is exposed, and the footprints are more obvious and complete.

It's a bit like a human foot, barefoot, with clear soles and obvious arches, but the total length is only five or six centimeters, with only three toes, and the toenails are long and sharp, and they dig deeply into the soil.

Qi Yi looked for a long time, but still couldn't find any creature corresponding to this kind of footprints.

"The feet are a major characteristic organ that distinguishes humans from most living creatures. They are even significantly different from many primates. I can't think of any other animal with such a foot structure except humans."

Mao Ning'an was also puzzled: "But human feet have five toes, and the nails are not so sharp. Such sharp and long nails are more like those of animals."

"Resembling human but not human."

In addition to the footprints, there are several obvious lodgings in the surrounding grass, which can barely print a little shape. The marks left by the pointed armor are especially obvious.

Qi Yi continued his analysis: "Combined with the gait, it should not be an animal that walks completely upright. When upright, its balance ability is a little worse than that of humans."

"What the hell is this?" Lao Chi put his hands in his trouser pockets, bowed his waist and walked around the footprints: "Humans are not humans, monkeys are not monkeys."

Mao Ning'an couldn't stand his careless look and blocked it with his forearm: "Go over, what can you see?"

Qi Yi didn't find anything else, so he straightened up and said, "It's hard to say, maybe it's some kind of uncommon monkey? My understanding of biology is limited and I can't tell. Do you know any experts in this field?"

Lao Chi took two steps back and relaxed with his hands on his waist: "A biology expert or a monkey expert? I'll ask you on WeChat." He took out his mobile phone and asked in the group.

"What a coincidence, Xiaoyu said that she knows a big boss in this field, someone who studies primates, focusing on golden monkeys. You can send her the photos. My little sister is quite wild."

Qi Yi sent the photo and lamented that girls these days who are good-looking and sensible are indeed more popular than the two of them.

After waiting for a short while, Jiang Xiaoyu replied: Brother Yi, the boss couldn't tell what animal species it was for a while. It should be a primate, but there was a big problem with the toe. He didn't remember it.

The toes of primates look like this, and the possibility of deformation cannot be ruled out.

Qi Yi: OK, thank you.

After speaking, he raised the phone and showed it to Lao Chi and Mao Ning'an.

"If it's an aberration, it'll be troublesome. It's even harder to determine the species." Mao Ning'an put down the camera and said,

Qi Yi didn't care too much. To him, the species no longer mattered. He applied for a powerful electric baton from Wang's detachment. The next time he was attacked, he would kill it. If he caught it, the puzzle would naturally be solved.

He was more concerned about how the Shadows were trained to be able to obey such complicated instructions, and there were more than one. He also wanted to know what the imposter's motives were and what he would do next.

I looked around carefully and found no other traces. The footprints disappeared after seven or eight steps. It was very confusing.

"Strange." Qi Yi looked sideways in the direction of the seventh building. He was at least thirty or forty meters away from the last footprint. Even outside the green belt, there was still more than seven meters away. Can the shadow jump so far in one leap?

The last footprints did show signs of being stepped on. The toes and sharp nails dug deeply into the ground, and the soil was turned up, exposing the grass roots underneath.

Qi Yi carefully recalled several times when he was attacked by ghosts. The thing was indeed flexible and its jumping ability was very good, but it should not be able to jump seven or eight meters.

Could it be that there are trees? All peach trees are planted in the community, and they are farther apart. The nearest one is ten meters away.

Qi Yi walked to the edge of the green belt and asked the boss: "Did you see the black shadow jumping from the green belt to the road outside?"

The boss nodded repeatedly: "I saw it, I saw it. It was like lightning. It jumped from the inside to the outside in a flash. It was so fast that I didn't see it clearly at all."

Qi Yi pointed to the outermost footprint: "Did it jump out from that place?"

"This..." The vendor struggled to remember, but finally shook his head: "I really can't remember this, right? Anyway, it can jump very far, maybe more than ten meters, so it's very strange, what can jump

It’s so far away, could it be a flea the size of a washbasin?”

Qi Yi was speechless. What kind of idea is this? There are fleas as big as a basin, and they can kill people by sucking blood.

But when I think about it, it’s true. How can something be able to jump so far in one jump? The length of that mysterious shadow is at least eighty or ninety centimeters. It’s too exaggerated to be able to jump ten times its body length in one jump.

A cricket can only jump twenty or thirty times its body length.

Moreover, the shadow can quickly crawl on the bricks outside the building, which is even more fascinating. Monkeys may not be able to do this.

After careful investigation, I collected some clues, but instead of being able to solve the mystery, I felt even more confused, and the mystery surrounding the mysterious figure was shrouded in more layers.

After searching again and again, there was no search. Qi Yi didn't want to waste any more time, so he suggested: "Let's close the team and come back tomorrow when we have time during the day."

"Okay." Mao Ning'an had no objection. As for Lao Chi, he didn't care.

The three of them quickly walked out of the lawn. The hawker waited for a long time: "Well, some police officers, about the bonus... Hehe... I'm not just asking for money."

Mao Ning'an Heshan smiled and handed out a pen and paper: "Leave your contact information and I will try to apply for you later. I will call you when I have the result."

"Okay!" The vendor hurriedly wiped his hands on his clothes, took the pen and paper and wrote down the phone number.

"Hey!" At this moment, the young apprentice suddenly raised his finger and pointed at Building Seven: "Look, what is that?"

Qi Yi reacted the fastest and immediately turned around to look, and soon found a small black shadow lying outside the seventh and fifth floors. He had strong night vision and was so familiar with this thing that he recognized it immediately and said

: "It's that thing that comes up again and again..."

He stopped suddenly, and when he realized that the vendor was still there, he swallowed the words "attack him".

At this time, the hawker also said: "Yes, yes, that's that thing! The police officer has seen it before?"

Lao Chi instantly took out his gun from his waist and aimed it, but he still didn't pull the trigger: "No, it's too far, I'm not sure of hitting it."

The strange shadow lying on the wall seemed to have noticed them, and suddenly started to move at a very fast speed. Soon it ran along the wall to the other side and disappeared in front of several people.

Unwilling to give up, Lao Chi followed him with a gun in hand: "You guys wait for me here, be careful, I'll catch up and take a look!"
