"When we came back yesterday, we happened to meet this... neighbor. Since my legs and feet were inconvenient, I didn't go out after dinner. Maybe it was because I was too tired during the day, so I went to bed early. Do it at night It was a dream, but...when I woke up this morning, as soon as I opened my eyes, there were these words on the wall!"
The man said, seeming to think of some bad memories: "Officer, although I don't believe in ghosts in the world, I'm not afraid of them. But these words on the wall can't appear for no reason. Let's go find the owner of the B&B. We need to adjust the surveillance. When he talked about this, he said that if we had gone to that place yesterday, there would be no one there, and there would be no staff dormitories in the scenic area."
"Also, he insisted that he saw me out in the middle of the night last night and said that I did the things on the wall myself, and he wanted me to compensate. Can you tell me, is he talking humanly?"
It’s good that he didn’t ask them to compensate for his mental losses, but the other party also asked him to compensate!
Both parties felt they were victims and called the police.
"Comrade policeman, I really didn't blackmail him in this matter. Everything I said is true!" After hearing this, the owner of the B&B quickly started to cry out.
"You don't know, although our place is said to be a scenic spot, the flow of people on weekdays is not very large. That is to say, the B&B will be full only during special festivals such as the Moon Worship Festival. Therefore, the employees in the entire scenic spot are not actually How much? It's not too far from the city. Most of the young people in the village still work in the city. Even the young people who stay to work for the scenic spot will never enter the scenic spot these two days. This is the rule. …”
The folk custom boss paused for a moment. When he saw the doubtful looks of others, he quickly explained: "After all, it is still different here from the city. There are still some rules left by the older generation. The main purpose of the Moon Worship Festival is to worship the moon. God, the young people in charge of sacrifices must bathe and fast three days before the Moon Worship Festival. In order to keep their bodies clean, they are not allowed to approach the sacrificial site during these three days."
"Of course, this rule is for our own people. After all, our place is a tourist attraction. We mainly rely on these days to make money on weekdays. How can we keep tourists away? So the attractions are open over there. Yeah, there’s no such thing as not being able to enter.”
This is completely contrary to what the young man said just now.
Among the people with solemn expressions, Shen Mian was probably the most relaxed one. She yawned and reached out to pour herself a glass of water.
If she is still at home, this time should still be when she is taking her beauty sleep.
So others say that traveling is suffering from a certain perspective, and she agrees with this.
Perhaps it was because her leisurely expression was a little out of tune with her surroundings. When Shen Mian took a sip of water and raised her eyes again, she found that other people's eyes were focused on her.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Ahem." It was You Nanxing who broke the slightly embarrassing situation and coughed twice: "Miss Shen hasn't told us yet, have you found anything wrong from yesterday to now? Or, What have you done?"
The notebook in You Nanxing's hand is already filled with notes. It is obvious that he is waiting for Shen Mian's reply.
"Yesterday?" Shen Mian held the cup and recalled: "It's nothing special. Just after I got settled here, I happened to meet the two of them coming back from outside on the balcony, and then..."
Shen Mian recounted it from her own perspective: "I was drowsily woken up by the screams in the morning. When I woke up completely, I packed up and opened the door. That's what you see now."
"You mean... there was a sound of heavy objects falling to the ground in the middle of the night?" Yin Jinchuan frowned.
"It was in the middle of the night, I'm not sure. Maybe it was my dream." Shen Mian didn't think that this feeling when he was not conscious enough could be used as evidence.
"Maybe it's not a dream..."
The landlady, who had been silent since the beginning, suddenly spoke up.
"What?"
"ah?"
This time, even Shen Mian, who was drinking water, was a little surprised.
An hour later.
On a forest path in the scenic area, Shen Mian raised his eyes to look at the sunlight filtering through the branches and leaves, and stretched out his hands to tuck his hair that was hanging down somewhat to obstruct his vision. I lamented in my heart: Why should she follow me?
She originally thought that traveling would at least involve sleeping until she wakes up naturally. If she wants to go out, she can go out and see the scenery. If she doesn't want to go out, she can just lie in her room and sleep. This is life!
Even if it’s not so comfortable, at least you won’t be forced to climb a mountain early in the morning!
"What do you think about this?"
The sudden cold voice made Shen Mian shiver.
"Captain Yin asked me?" Shen Mian pointed at herself in surprise, just like when he asked her to come with him an hour ago.
"Yeah." Yin Jinchuan didn't say anything more, but nodded directly.
"How else can we watch? Someone is pretending to be a ghost." She muttered in a low voice, stretched out her hand and tugged on the scarf she was wearing.
The early morning in the mountains is filled with a little mist, sending out waves of chill on people's bodies. Even with the sunshine, it was still a little cold.
"Mianmian, what if it's true..."
"Don't worry, if there were really ghosts in this world, they would have been so crowded that their feet wouldn't even touch the ground. It would be their turn to wander around." Shen Mian reached out and patted Wei, who had been tugging on his sleeve since the beginning. Duo.
If Yin Jinchuan hadn't noticed Wei Duo's nervousness, he probably wouldn't have wanted to drag her along.
"Moreover, Comrade Wei Duo, as a glorious people's policeman, aren't you a staunch materialist? If you are really nervous, just recite the core socialist values silently in your heart several times." Shen Mian suggested.
"You're still talking about me, aren't you also afraid of those things?" Wei Duo retorted in a low voice.
"I'm not afraid, it's awe of the unknown..."
The two girls bickered, dispersing a lot of the tense atmosphere.
"But..." Shen Mian said, her voice suddenly getting longer: "Although I don't know exactly what happened, judging from the performance of both of them just now, they are probably hiding something, at least not 100%. Tell the truth."
She has dealt with many people, although she cannot be 100% sure whether what others say is true or false. However, even if it is a clever lie, there will still be logical irrationality.
She glanced at the B&B owner and the young man who were leading the way, and narrowed her eyes slightly.
Just like Gu Henzhi did in the second round of testing, once the information gap is used properly, it's unclear who will benefit.
"what are you thinking?"
"I think about what my boyfriend said..."
Um?
"What did you say?" Wei Duo's voice suddenly rose a lot, startling the birds in the forest.
Boy friend?
What boyfriend?
