Looking at the plainly dressed woman in front of him, the expression on Gu Yuan's face seemed a little strange.
Kong Baihe and Wei Xuanyi, who were standing behind, also looked at each other with doubtful eyes.
This situation was completely unexpected.
After receiving the report and arriving at the agreed upon location, what came was a monster.
The cpu is almost burning.
The woman put the keys of the electric car into her jacket pocket and held her hands together unnaturally. Facing the three young men from the Demon Suppression Department in front of her, she seemed a little nervous.
"You...you don't have to look at me like that. It's true that I reported the crime, but I'm a demon. I've met Captain Li! He told me to call you if I need help."
Gu Yuan suddenly realized.
No wonder the other party's call went directly to the Demon Suppression Department instead of being transferred through the Yamen.
It turns out there is such a relationship...
Kong Baihe coughed lightly and said, "What happened to you when you called us?"
"There is a monster." The woman said immediately.
"I know, I saw it, what next?"
"..." the woman explained, "The monster I'm talking about is not me."
She slowly turned her face and stood on the reservoir dam looking into the distance.
"You mean, there are other monsters here?" Wei Xuanyi was a little surprised and started to look around.
The woman nodded. She was a bit bloated and had a double chin. It was rare for a monster to be so unconcerned about her image.
"Every year, people come to Yunlin Reservoir for winter swimming. You should know that, right?"
Even Gu Yuan shook his head.
Although this place is not very far from Star City, Gu Yuan has only "heard about" this place. This is his first time here. Who would travel so far just to see a reservoir?
Of course, the scenery here is still good. The reservoir is surrounded by green mountains on both sides, and mist rolls faintly in the distance. If you are 17 or 18 years old, you can hold hands with the girl you like and blow the wind on the reservoir dam. Taking steps seems to be a happy thing.
The woman continued: "Actually, two people have drowned in the water in the past half month. They were all here to use, but they were not from our town. One was from Star City, and the other was an old man from the town behind. .”
Gu Yuan was a little surprised.
"Has no one reported the crime before?" Kong Baihe asked doubtfully.
The woman shook her head.
"When the Yamen came, he drowned. It was because the water was too cold in winter and he was not prepared to warm up, which led to cramps," the woman said.
This situation is relatively common. Although winter swimming is good for the body, it also requires a certain amount of professional knowledge. If you lack professional knowledge and just dive in casually, it may really come up.
Kong Baihe couldn't understand.
"If that's the case, what does it have to do with monsters?"
It is impossible for the yamen to draw conclusions casually. Since such a conclusion has been drawn, it must have been forensically identified.
But the woman was a little excited.
"They are wrong! They are all wrong! Those people did not drown at all!" the woman said, "There are monsters in this water! Believe me, my feeling is not wrong. If you don't solve it early, then you will If you come down, someone might die."
Kong Baihe took a step forward to calm the other party's emotions, and Gu Yuan looked towards the reservoir.
"Classmate Xiao Ai."
"I am here."
"Can you feel the monster?" After Gu Yuan finished speaking, he added, "I mean, in the water."
"No! Maybe it's too far!" Xiao Ai said.
The reservoir is so big and deep. If there is really a monster hiding in the water, they may not be able to sense it.
Moreover, seeing how excited the woman was, Gu Yuan thought it didn't look like she was lying. Besides, she herself was a monster, so why would she lie about such a thing? Even if I make a mistake, the starting point is actually a good one.
The people of the Demon Suppression Division hope that every place will be safe and sound, but they are never afraid of trouble.
Navigating the ship with great care, taking every case seriously, and extinguishing hidden dangers at the sparks is the way the Demon Suppression Department behaves.
At this time, Kong Baihe called Wei Xuanyi over and asked her to communicate with the other party. Although the other party was a monster, she was also a woman now, so it would be easier for Wei Xuanyi to communicate.
As for himself, he was looking at the water with Gu Yuan.
"If the monster is really hiding in the water, it seems difficult to deal with."
"Are you okay? I'm going to go into the water and take a look later." Gu Yuan said.
"Huh?" Kong Baihe looked at him deeply and sighed, "Gu Yuan."
"What's wrong?"
"I can't see you clearly!" Kong Baihe said, "What else are you hiding from me?"
Gu Yuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Why did I hide it from you? You never asked me."
Kong Baihe was speechless.
At this time, Wei Xuanyi also came over.
"How's your question?" Gu Yuan turned around and asked.
"She doesn't know where the monster is, but it must be in the water." Wei Xuanyi said.
"Did those people really drown?" Gu Yuan asked.
"Anyway, that's what the forensic doctor judged, but she said it wasn't the case. She said it was the demon soul that ate their souls first." Wei Xuanyi said.
"Huh?" Gu Yuan and Kong Baihe looked at each other, both looking a little surprised.
A soul-eating monster?
This is really the first time I heard of it...
"Forget it, I'll go down and take a look first. You guys wait for me on the shore." Gu Yuan said.
"Are you going down by yourself?" Wei Xuanyi's eyes suddenly widened, "How dangerous is that!"
"No problem." Gu Yuan said with a smile.
Seeing Gu Yuan's relaxed look, Wei Xuanyi could only nod.
At this time, the woman also walked up.
"You... need help?" the woman asked.
Gu Yuan looked at her, smiled and asked, "How are you going to help us?"
"Well... I don't know. If you need my help with anything, just ask." The woman said quickly.
Gu Yuan smiled and nodded, not rejecting the other party's kindness.
I found a gap and went down the steps. On both sides of the steps were slopes made of bricks, which were somewhat uneven.
Wei Xuanyi looked at Gu Yuan without blinking until Gu Yuan jumped into the water.
"Huh? Are you going down now?"
Kong Baihe looked at her and smiled: "Why do you think you are a little disappointed? Are you still waiting for Gu Yuan to take off his clothes?"
Wei Xuanyi blushed slightly and glared at him.
"Stop talking nonsense!"
…
Before entering the water, Gu Yuan had already circulated Yuan Qi in his body and activated his demonic energy, quickly establishing a connection with the cold lake water.
Even in the water, he can move freely, breathe freely, and control the ups and downs of his body.
At this moment, he seemed to become Tam, the Lord of the River...
