late at night.

The city bureau building was dark, with only one dim yellow light in the duty room.

The policeman on duty sits in front of the window, plugs in his earphones, uses his mobile phone to watch the program, rubbing his eyes and yawning from time to time. There is a cup of strong tea for refreshing on hand. In the cold winter night, the white smoke rising from the mouth of the cup gradually thins.

"Pap. Pap. Pap." The crisp footsteps were especially obvious in the silent building.

The policeman on duty was also considered alert, the headset was only plugged in one side, and immediately pulled off the headset to stand up after hearing the sound.

"Squeaky~" A side door was pushed open.

The policeman on duty was stunned.

Although the door would not be locked from the outside in consideration of fire escape when there was a man on duty, he clearly remembered that when he inspected, the door was locked from the inside, and it must be impossible to open it outside.

"Slap. Slap." The footsteps continued.

The policeman on duty was about to go out and have a look, but suddenly found in horror that a row of water-stained footprints appeared on the ground.

He heard the patter of rain in his ears. Only then did he realize that he didn't know when it started to rain outside, and a puddle had already accumulated on the ground.

However...the scary thing is that the footprints that appeared out of thin air on the ground stretched inward, but no one was seen.

The young man who has just joined the job is stiff, his pores burst, and he can even hear his own violent heartbeat.

"Bah!" His hand moved subconsciously, pulling on the earphone cable, the earphone was pulled off the phone, and the sound of the program suddenly became public:

"Since this year, the Jiangnan Police Department..."

"I'm a policeman. I'm a policeman. I'm a policeman." The policeman on duty read a few silently, as if hypnotizing himself, and finally felt that his strength returned and his body was able to move. He was not qualified to be equipped with a gun, so he immediately grabbed the baton and walked out of the duty room cautiously, approaching the footprints.

Suddenly, he picked up the baton and moved towards the top where the last footprint appeared. He swept over without hesitation. He even staggered and stumbled a few steps to stand firmly because of excessive force.

"No, no one?" He was a little surprised holding the baton.

The feeling of not hitting anything means that it has swept the air, but if there is no one, what's the matter with the footprints? Just now he was still wondering if there really is a Nano Quantum Invisibility Cloak or something.

Suddenly, the sound of footsteps stopped.

An illusion? The policeman on duty was stunned, and slowly turned his head to look over. At that glance, his adrenaline rushed and his pupils quaked.

I saw that the row of clear water footprints suddenly changed direction, and the toes were facing me!

"Pop." Water Footprint made a firm turn and walked towards him.

"Don't, don't come over! I'm the policeman, stop!" the policeman on duty shouted, holding his baton.

The footprints approached step by step.

run? Still fight?

The young man's legs were still trembling. Seeing that the footprints were less than two steps away from him, he closed his eyes suddenly, turned on the current switch on the baton, adjusted to the maximum power, and waved randomly into the air.

"Ding!" Suddenly, a woman's cold voice came from behind.

"Who!" Hearing someone's words, the policeman on duty suddenly got angry.

The most terrifying thing is the silent pressure, when someone speaks, it makes him courageous.

My dignified people's police can't get rid of ghosts, so can't they also get rid of people?

"Enough." A hand pressed his shoulder.

The policeman on duty was dumbfounded, turned his head stubbornly, looked at the incoming person, and it took a long time to react: "Chu, Chu, Chu team?"

Chu Li stood behind him, dressed in casual clothes, and covered in a beige thin cashmere sweater with a brown single-layer jacket. It seemed that he couldn't feel the temperature below zero in the middle of the night at all.

Not far away, a girl wrapped in a white down jacket slowly walked over.

He recognized that this seemed to be... Consultant Tang of the Crime Squad.

"How is it?" Chu Li asked.

"Simon was right, they really are still interested in Baker's body." Tang Xi put his hands in the down jacket pockets, said, yawning again, and complained, "I'm so sleepy, hurry up and get home to sleep. "

"You have no class tomorrow morning." Chu Li said.

"No class in the morning is not the reason why you pulled me over night shifts! Day and night upside down is not good for the skin!" Tang Xi was confident.

"Team Chu, what is this..." What happened?

"Hmm." Chu Li scratched his chin and said suddenly, "That, sorry."

"What?" The policeman on duty was confused. Did he do anything that requires the head of the crime team to apologize to him?

However, the next moment, he felt a pain in the back of his neck, his eyes went dark, and he didn't know anything.

Chu Li retracted his hand knife with a calm expression on his face, held him back, and stuffed him into the duty room, letting him lie on the table, and plugged the earphone plug back into the phone.

"It's pitiful." Tang Xi shook his head, "but Xie Changan is not here, I can't modify the memory, it's better for him to wake up tomorrow and think he is dreaming."

"Rest assured, today is a special case, I will not deduct his bonus because he fell asleep on duty." Chu Li said.

Tang Xi smiled "puff".

"What is this?" Chu Li asked.

In his eyes, it was a group of black-breathing guys who didn’t even have a personal appearance. What he had to say was supposed to be the height of his head. There were two red dots shining strangely, barely speaking. Eye.

"I don't know." Tang Xi tied the thing firmly with a rope of spiritual strength. He circled it curiously, and shook his head. Haoran cleansed uprightly."

The monster was under control, screaming and struggling uncontrollably.

The spiritual power cord was shining with aura, tightening and tightening.

"Looks like there is no spiritual wisdom." Chu Li said.

"Well, if you don't have the wisdom, he should have been attracted by instinct, he...what!" Tang Xi was halfway talking, and suddenly he saw something flashing by the stairwell from the corner of his eye, and he immediately shouted.

Faster than her is Chu Li's figure, like a vigorous cheetah, who has passed through the hall for a few seconds and rushed into the stairwell.

"Chu Li, you bastard!" Tang Xi was so angry that he was still holding a monster in his hand, unable to catch up immediately.

"Xiao Xi, leave this guy to me." Su Huang appeared next to her and took over the spiritual rope.

"Bring it to the crime team." Tang Xi confessed and hurried to catch up.

It is easy to know how many floors Chu has left. The stairwell of the city bureau building uses sensor lights. You only need to see how many floors the corridor lights are on, and all the way to the crime team office.

Chu Li stood in the middle, holding the spiritual force gun in his right hand, the muzzle drooping.

"How is it? Did you catch it?" Tang Xi asked.

"I lost it here." Chu Li gave a "tsk" with an unhappy expression on his face.

Tang Xi didn't say a word, with a single finger, a ray of spiritual power spread out, and then he went straight to the forensic room without hesitation.

"Bah!" Chu Li kicked the door of the forensic room directly with his foot.

"Ah~~~~" screamed.

"Who?" Chu Li shouted.

"Chu, Team Chu?" A hesitant voice sounded in the room.

With a "pop", Tang Xi turned on the light switch at the door, and the bright light instantly illuminated the forensic room, and the gloomy atmosphere suddenly diminished.

However, there was a movement behind an autopsy bed, and a person stood up.

"Sister Late?" Tang Xi was dumbfounded.

Su Wanyi's coat was a little wrinkled, and her hair was messy. She slapped a couple of short hairs neatly, and said with a grieving expression: "Team Chu, Xiao Xi, did you two go to the office to catch the thief if you didn't sleep in the middle of the night? It's almost scary, don't you know!"

"What are you doing here?" Chu Li was helpless.

"Oh, it's so weird to see this corpse. In some places, I want to check it again. After I finish it, I don't want to go back." Su Wanyi yawned and said in a daze, " Anyway, I have to get up at 6:30 tomorrow for work. After deducting the time on the circuit, I won’t be able to sleep for long, so I might as well just sleep here."

"Where did you sleep?" Tang Xi looked at this forensic room that could be seen at a glance.

"Here." Su Wanyi patted the anatomy bed.

"..." Tang Xi had a black line.

Sister, that's the autopsy bed in the forensic room, the one who slept with the corpse! And there is Baker's corpse lying on another dissection bed, less than two meters away from you, wouldn't you be able to respond! If I wake up in the middle of the night and open my eyes...

"There is a corpse in the forensic room." Chu Li said.

Tang Xi looked over in surprise.

I thought this was the first man in the universe, but would he still care about girls?

Su Wanyi was obviously stunned before repliing, "Which forensic doctor is afraid of corpses."

"I mean, there are dead bodies in the forensic room, and the heating cannot be turned on." Chu Li added.

Tang Xi felt that her fist was hard.

Can this be even worse!

"Of course I know, so the heating is not turned on." Su Wanyi said.

"I'll catch a cold." Chu Li sighed, then looked back, "Also, what are you staring at me for?"

"Ahaha..." Tang Xi smiled dryly.

Well, at least not so hopeless.

"I have a quilt here." Su Wanyi said, neatly folding the quilt on the anatomical bed and stuffing it into a cabinet before asking, "It's the two of you, what are you here for?"

"Sister Wanyi, have you seen anyone coming in?" Tang Xi asked.

"Isn't it the two of you? Sleepwalking?" Su Wanyi was inexplicable, "Who else ran to the city bureau in the middle of the night? No thieves are so stupid."

"It's a kid." Chu Li said.

"Child?" Tang Xi narrowed his eyes.

"Yeah." Chu Li nodded, indicating that she was right.

"I just fell asleep, except that you two kicked the door to wake me up, no one was seen." Su Wanyi shook his head.

Without waiting for her to ask anything, Chu Li grabbed her wrist and pushed her to Tang Xi's side: "Follow Xiao Xi and don't go far."

"Hey, huh?" Su Wan was at a loss.

"Well, don't be too far away from me." Tang Xi answered.

Su Wan suggested that they went out very tacitly. While searching the office, he scratched his head and followed Tang Xi.

After each half a circle, they still met at the entrance of the forensic room.

"No?" Tang Xi frowned.

"Are you sure at this level?" Chu Li asked.

"Yeah." Tang Xi nodded.

"Find it again." Chu Li said immediately.

"So, whoever of you will tell me what you are looking for!" Su Wanyi followed inexplicably for a long time, and finally couldn't help being irritable.

"Hmm..." Tang Xi scratched his head.

Hey, it's really troublesome if Xie Chang'an isn't there. It's all easy to use. I don't remember how I did things when there was no Xie Changan.

"Pattern." At this moment, there was a soft sound of something falling to the floor in the forensic room.

"Inside?" Su Wanyi suddenly felt terrified.

She was sure that after waking up, she saw no other people come in except Chu Li and Tang Xi. The voice inside...could it be that someone was hiding inside at the beginning? I just slept in it! It's creepy just thinking about it.

"Lean back." Tang Xi's expression was serious, and she reached out to stop her behind.

The light in the forensic room was still on, but it seemed to be in poor contact, with slight flashes, like a prelude in a ghost movie.

Unfortunately, encountering Chu Li and Tang Xi, if it is really a ghost film, it will only be a ghost, and it is estimated that even Su Wanyi will not be scared.

In the empty forensic room, there is nothing that shouldn't be there. If you have to say that there is, it is... a pen on the table fell to the ground.

"No one." Su Wanyi bent down and picked up the pen and inserted it back into the pen holder, while muttering: "Strange, I remember that I should put the pen in the pen holder. How could only one fall out? It can't be a corpse, right? ."

"I think it's possible," Tang Xi said quietly.

Su Wan was taken aback for a moment, then turned around and smiled helplessly: "Xiao Xi, you can't scare me like this."

"I'm very strange. Sister Wanyi, you were bitten by a corpse last time. Why don't you believe in a corpse." Tang Xi curiously asked.

"The fish in the vegetable market were cleaned with broken stomachs, and they would bite people after half a day. People... Although it's a unique situation, it can't be explained at all. At any rate, the corpse didn't really come alive or speak. Run out." Su Wanyi said.

"..." Tang Xi gave up.

She has nothing to say about the woman who can eat boiled meat in front of the giant's corpse, and even sleep next to the corpse.

However, it’s okay if you don’t believe it. If you believe it, you will leave a psychological shadow in the future. The crime team cannot lose such an excellent forensic doctor.

"Xiao Xi." Chu Li said suddenly.

"Yeah." Tang Xi responded calmly.

"Hey, this is... where is the child from?" Su Wanyi also saw the child shrunk under the anatomy bed, and said in surprise, "Team Chu, isn't this the child you ran into in the elevator of the deceased yesterday?"

Baker was lying on the dissection bed near the corner of the wall. There were still a few cardboard boxes stacked underneath. In the gap between the two cardboard boxes was a six or seven-year-old boy, motionless, if he didn't look for it specially, it would be easy to be overlooked.

Tang Xi raised her eyebrows. Sure enough, Su Wanyi, who was an ordinary person, could also see it.

"Little devil, you are the one who sneaked into the police station? No way." Su Wanyi bent over and stretched out her hand, "Okay, come out, my sister will take you to the duty room downstairs to find your family. You can't go upstairs here. You can enter, especially in this room. Children are definitely not allowed to enter."

The boy looked up at her, and silently shrank into the shadow.

"Am I so scary?" Su Wanyi touched her face.

Chu Li picked up the phone and glanced up, then raised his head and said, "Xiao Su, there is a girl here, saying that she is looking for a younger brother. You should go down and have a look. This kid will let Xiao Xi come to coax."

"Okay." Su Wanyi nodded without doubt.

It's not that she doesn't know that her temperament is sharp, she is not like Tang Xi, who looks at the soft and cute girl to please children, but she is a bit regretful at the end.

Seeing her hurriedly sorting out her clothes and going out, Tang Xi curiously asked, "Really?"

"Fake." Chu Li raised an eyebrow, knocked the Lingbei on his wrist, and ordered, "Hold her."

"Understood." Xie Yan floated out, walked directly to the window, and hurried to the gate before Su Wanyi.

"Pay attention to the shadow." Chu Li reminded.

"Yeah." Xie Yan said in a daze, "I led her to talk where there were no lights."

Tang Xi twitched her mouth and raised her head: "You really...adapted well."

"Just useful." Chu Li didn't care.

"Well, now, do you come out by yourself, or should I catch you out?" Tang Xi squeezed the joints of his fists.

The child hesitated, and finally crawled out.

Under the light, you can see that he has a shadow, but his eyes are not pure black, with a hint of dark red.

"Chu Li, isn't it my illusion? How come this child is a bit like the dead?" Tang Xi glanced at the corpse lying on the autopsy bed, wondering.

Chu Li lowered his face slightly.

I caught a glimpse in the elevator yesterday. I didn’t look carefully and didn’t prepare to connect him with the corpse. But now the two are together. By comparison, I can see that this child is the son of the deceased Baker. No one will doubt it.

Tang Xi turned on the camera function of the mobile phone and pointed it at the boy. As expected, no human figure was displayed on the screen, only the anatomical bed could be photographed.

"What are you? Can you speak?" Chu Li asked in a calm tone.

The boy shook his head, pointing at Baker and then at himself.

"Can't speak?" Chu Li's thoughts turned quickly, and he guessed, "Are you related to him? Is it his relative?"

The boy shook his head immediately.

"It's a part of him." Tang Xi was speaking.

"Part of it?" Chu Li felt a little horrified.

"To be precise, it's part of the soul." Tang Xi closed the phone "pop", a smile came up on her lips, "the last puzzle is all here."

"You mean, this puppet was created by the dead?" Chu Li reacted.

"Well, if this is the case, then it can all make sense." Tang Xi said with confidence, "It should be the group of people who want to rob the Simon family contract to kill Baker. The magic circle should use Baker to summon someone. Kind of evil things that can be used, but what he didn’t expect was that before that, Baker used a part of his soul to create this little ghost puppet. I'm missing two pounds, but I may not be summoned completely."

"That sane monster downstairs?" Chu Li understood.

"It's the product of failure." Tang Xi shrugged, "Because he is irrational, he instinctively chases sacrifices that should belong to him."

"Didn't Simon say that no one in their family knows how to do puppetry? I remember this guy was sent by the Black family to protect him?" Chu Li was still a little confused.

"Who knows." Tang Xi sneered. "If he conceals puppetry, it is also possible that he wants to **** the contract before mixing into a third party of the Black family."

With that, she stared at the puppet boy again, stretched out her fingers and squeezed his arm.

"What are you doing?" Chu Li puzzled.

"It feels good, it feels like a real person." Tang Xi said, "I have seen the introduction of puppet art in the book before, I remember... the book says that this kind of magic is illegal and dangerous, because it is my own soul that splits it. The destruction of human beings, the destruction of that part of the soul, is a devastating blow to the body. A person with insufficiency will break down and become crazy and foolish at the slightest level, and become a vegetative person at the worst. However, it is never mentioned in the book. If the main body of the puppet technique is killed, the small piece of soul that was separated can still continue to move in the puppet?"

"Although he can't communicate, he is indeed rational." Chu Li affirmed.

With a light bump, stuffing something in his pocket to prevent him from noticing it, few living people can do it.

"Xiao Xi, I dragged this guy up." Su Huang's voice sounded outside the door.

"Follow me?" Tang Xi tentatively stretched out her hand.

The boy hesitated, grabbed one of her fingers, and was led out of the forensic room.

Su Huang was pulling the rope of spiritual strength, but the black aura on the monster seemed a little bit suffocating, and it was much dimmer than the dense blackness just now.

"Too disobedient, I punched it." Su Huang was confident.

"It's okay." Tang Xi glanced at the puppet boy who was hiding directly behind him, and waved his hand.

The monster seemed to sense that his prey was nearby, and suddenly roared even more fiercely, and the spiritual power cord was almost broken again.

"It's so noisy!" Su Huang patted his tail.

"The origin of this thing has been figured out, it's useless." Tang Xi said.

When Chu Li heard the words, he raised his muzzle, and the pure white spiritual power penetrated the monster's head, aimed at a bright red "eye", and shot the head.

Suddenly, the monster was like thin ice under the scorching sun, starting from the place where it was hit, it quickly melted away without a trace, leaving only the spiritual power rope hanging on the ground.

Tang Xi waved her hand, dissipated her spiritual power, and turned around again: "Okay, threaten me to get rid of it. Now it's your turn."

The boy hesitated, ran to a desk, jumped up and grabbed a pen.

"Can't speak, but can write?" Tang Xi suddenly understood the pen that fell on the floor in the forensic room, and then took a piece of A4 paper from the printer to him.

The boy lay on the ground, holding a ball pen with a fist, in an awkward posture, and wrote three words crookedly on the paper.

Chu Li and Tang Xi leaned over, barely recognizing the handwriting.

blood, monster, die.

"Blood, monster, death?" Tang Xi asked in confusion.

"This?" Chu Li took out the blood crystal and shook his cuff.

"Monster, it shouldn't be the defective product that was just destroyed." Tang Xi touched his chin in thought, "Could it be the contract in Simon's hand?"

"In the end, who is dead, or who is going to die?" Chu Li asked.

There was silence in the air for a while, and the two looked at each other, and suddenly thought of a possibility.

"Crap!" Tang Xi gritted her teeth, picked up the boy and ran out.

Chu Li followed and walked along the A4 paper. In a hurry, only the ball pen fell to the ground.

It's just that they all seem to have forgotten something.

Ten minutes later, Su Wanyi walked into the crime team office with an inexplicable look, and shouted: "What the hell, I said for a long time that she had mistakenly said that she had not seen her younger sister or younger brother? It was a **** in the middle of the night! Chu... "

Halfway through the conversation, she was stunned.

no one?

"Gurulu..." Something seemed to be kicked on the toe.

"Someone else is throwing a pen?" Su Wanyi bent down and picked up the ball pen on the ground, feeling even more that what happened tonight was very strange.

It seems, indeed, a bit cold!

Or go home...
