Chapter 173 Gathering
Chapter 173: Gathering
A crime committed by someone with antisocial personality disorder may be an attempt to vent some emotion.
But when they form an organization and commit multiple crimes, it must be for a certain purpose.
kill?
There are not many perverted murderers, but there are definitely a lot. If they are just for their own pleasure, there is no need for them to form an organization and tie themselves down.
Therefore, Bai Yanliang can be sure that the criminal organization called Anyuan is planning something, or to put it more bluntly, they can get something from every criminal incident with cruel methods and bizarre circumstances.
First of all, it can be ruled out that it is definitely not money. Secondly, they don't seem to care about reputation.
So why do they commit cruel and perverted murders again and again?
Bai Yanliang believes that they not only do it themselves, but also encourage others to do it.
In Ai Qing's case, although the murderer was Chen Huaiyu's father, the origin of Ma Junsheng's large bottle of sleeping pills is still unclear. As for Li Degang's case, the fluorescent agent used by Hao Bowen to paint the entire wall was not something he could obtain as a student, and there is currently no proof. As for Lei Dongming's case, it is still unknown how the blood stains disappeared from the murder scene in the park.
Although every case was successfully solved, there always seemed to be something missing, which made Bai Yanliang feel that it was far-fetched and omitted.
Now, he understands.
Every case has twisted humanoid shadows involved, and those shadows... are inseparable from the Dark Abyss.
Nowadays, the changes in Wuji have become incomprehensible. In the real world, there are evil spirits attacking members of Wuji, and there are also strange organizations with unknown purposes like An Abyss hiding in the dark.
Rarely, Bai Yanliang felt some urgency.
That night, Bai Yanhao had a good night's rest.
Li Mu only slept for more than three hours because of nightmares. However, he already had a clue to his problem, and Li Mu's mentality improved a lot. At least he knew that his opponent was An Yuan, who was entangled in him. It's not a ghost, it's a curse.
At three o'clock in the afternoon the next day, Bai Yanliang and the other two took a car to the western suburbs.
This was originally a business district planned by Yecheng in its early stages, but for some unknown reason, the development plan was suddenly suspended, leaving behind large tracts of unfinished buildings.
Therefore, although you can see reinforced concrete buildings everywhere, it always gives people a sense of desolation.
Except for the indigenous people, the western suburbs can be said to be inaccessible.
Bai Yanliang arrived not too late, but when he, Li Mu, and Yu Sheng arrived at the Crescent Department Store, there were already seven or eight people there.
And the five people who were going to perform the mission in the early hours of tonight had all arrived and were looking at Bai Yanliang with different expressions.
"We're all here, let me tell you some information about this place first." Li Mu had the style of a criminal police officer.
"Crescent Department Store, the first building to be completed in the western suburbs of Yecheng, currently mainly sells daily necessities from surrounding residential buildings. There are some rumors on the Internet that when the Crescent Department Store was first built, many workers died inexplicably. After it was completed, , Occasionally, illusory phenomena such as bloody footprints can be seen on the glass and the floor. Later, the rumor was refuted that it was caused by competitors. ”
This short piece of information was compiled by Li Mu after he woke up from the Internet and the information found within the criminal police system. It can be seen that nothing too bizarre happened about the Crescent Department Store.
"You missed one thing." Song Que looked at Li Mu, who still held the coin that never left his hand.
"Today is the 4th time node. When the Crescent Department Store broke ground, it was also the 4th time node."
This reminded Li Mu, he nodded and looked at everyone: "Yes, today is indeed the day when the Crescent Department Store broke ground."
Yang Muwan turned her head and looked at the dark door. Although it was afternoon and people were still coming in and out of the door, she couldn't help but feel a chill.
"It's so depressing here..."
Yang Muwan whispered.
Song Que glanced at her, "I feel depressed wherever I look."
In fact, everyone has also felt the depression that Yang Muwan said. This is not what Song Que said, it is just a psychological effect.
The entrance of this department store seems to have a strange magic power. When you look at it, you will feel dizzy and suffocated.
Zhou Li also felt this way.
He was the first one to arrive and the most well-prepared one. He even had a telescope hung around his neck. Yuan Jie came all the way from Beicheng by plane early in the morning. It was getting dark now, and his mind was getting more and more irritable. After taking a look at Zhou Li, an unknown fire surged up: "What are you doing with a telescope? Afraid of not being able to see ghosts clearly? ”
Zhou Li glanced at him sideways. Faced with fear, everyone behaved differently. Some were silent, some were trembling, some were anxious, and some were angry.
It is obvious that Yuan Jie is the type of person who is anxious and angry because of fear.
"I didn't dare to go into this building directly, so I brought a telescope to observe from a distance." Zhou Li did not react much to Yuan Jie's gaffe.
"Show me." Yuan Jie swallowed.
He also felt that something was wrong with his emotions.
Zhou Li handed him the telescope, and Yuan Jie took it and raised it to his eyes.
The group of people stood on this side of the road, only about ten meters away from the Crescent Department Store. In fact, there was no need to use telescopes at all.
When Yuan Jie aimed his telescope at the department store, he began to move around subconsciously and look around.
The entire exterior wall of the Crescent Department Store was made of transparent glass, so he could see clearly.
The first floor is a cabinet selling jewelry, cosmetics, luxury watches, leather goods and other items.
The daily necessities area on the second floor has all kinds of daily necessities.
The third floor is the sports brand area.
The fourth floor is the dining and entertainment area.
The fifth floor is a cinema.
In addition, there is a negative first floor, where you can buy non-staple food and vegetables.
From this look, there was nothing unusual about this building. Yuan Jie also saw the saleswoman on the second floor yawning.
A very normal place...
Then, Yuan Jie moved the telescope to the window on the third floor.
But this time... he saw a pair of blood-red eyes!
A man with ulcers all over his body and twisted limbs was lying on the transparent glass, staring at him!
"Ah!"
Yuan Jie was so frightened that he let go, and Zhou Li's telescope suddenly fell to his feet.
"What happened? What did you see?"
Zhou Li asked hurriedly, ignoring his telescope.
Everyone was also startled by Yuan Jie's sudden shouting and quickly looked at him.
Yuan Jie's lips turned white. Although he was across the road, he still felt that scary thing staring at him. He trembled and said: "Ghost... there is a ghost! There is a ghost lying on the glass on the third floor. A rotten ghost..."
What? !
Bai Yanliang immediately turned his head to look, but there was nothing on the entire third floor window.
He picked up the telescope that had fallen on the ground and pointed it at the window on the third floor. However, there was still nothing unusual.
It disappears.
But after this, everyone felt a deep chill even though they had not yet entered the department store.
It's already dark.
