Chapter 148: Sense of Unknown
Chi Xia would rather regard the building standing out from the ruins as a historical site.
It looks a bit like a theater and a bit like an auditorium, with a stage outside.
But if I had to describe Chi Xia's first impression, it was that Chi Xia felt that this place was like the ancestral hall of a large family.
She even began to believe what Heizi said at the time, that this place was passed down from a very early time, but it only became the so-called theater that everyone talked about later.
Chi Xia didn't care what the history was like now. When she saw this huge building, which was dilapidated but still standing here, she felt a little itchy.
She wanted to see what was inside.
"Heizi." Luo Xun also spoke up: "Why do I feel that this place doesn't look like a theater, but more like an ancestral hall?"
Chi Xia glanced at Luo Xun.
Heizi didn't feel anything: "Ancestral hall, that's what my great-grandfather's generation called it. Anyway, there are many different versions. My grandparents' generation said it was a theater. When we went in to play, we found some operas being performed there, so we kept calling it a theater."
"Don't worry about this." Luo Xun looked at Chi Xia: "Let's go in and take a look."
They took off their heavy rain boots and put on light shoes.
Just after changing, Chi Xia and Luo Xun turned around and saw Heizi leaning against the tree with his hands, bending over and sticking out his butt.
"What are you doing?" Luo Xun really didn't understand.
Heizi turned his head and stuck his butt up again: "Brother Xun, it's all muddy. I want to get some sun. It's chilly inside. I'm afraid of getting prickly heat. You know the hemorrhoid I had last time..."
Luo Xun walked over and covered his mouth: "Alright, shut up, just bask in the sun, we'll go in first."
Heizi couldn't speak, he could only nod and blink.
Chi Xia took out a flashlight from the bag they brought and put one in Heizi's pocket.
The two walked in, and Luo Xun turned back: "Let it dry before coming in, and remember to wear a mask."
Heizi felt aggrieved for some reason: "Yeah."
Luo Xun and Chi Xia walked over.
"I made a rough topographic map of the terrain here last night based on what Wei Guoliang wrote in his notebook."
Taking advantage of the light , Chi Xia took out a piece of paper and unfolded it: "First there was the murderer, then there was Tu Guolin. The scene must have been destroyed. Some clues may have been deliberately hidden by them. There is no need for us to be too careful."
Luo Xun took the paper and saw that her drawing was easy to understand. He nodded and said, "Turn the whole thing around first, then follow this direction..."
He drew a route on the paper with his finger: "Then go directly to the dressing room where the body was found."
"good."
Chi Xia put away the drawings. The sun was shining brightly at noon, but the house didn't look as scary as usual. Sunlight could occasionally shine through corners.
Not long after they walked in, Heizi caught up with them from behind, panting: "I think I can't go alone. I was here last time and it was really scary, but I don't understand why..."
"Why?" Luo Xun and Chi Xia asked him together.
Heizi grinned: "Maybe he came with the people's police? I don't think this place is scary at all today. Is this the power of justice?"
"And what else..."
Heizi was still chattering: "Look at those TV dramas I watched. When going to a crime scene , they have to go in the middle of the night, right? They deliberately create a terrifying atmosphere. How good is it here? It's noon, when the yang energy is at its strongest. Double protection, hehehe..."
Chi Xia and Luo Xun were walking in front. They exchanged glances and Chi Xia made a subtle move.
Luo Xun felt helpless, but nodded.
They both stopped at the same time and turned their backs to Kuroko.
Heizi was talking happily: "Hey? What are you two doing stopping? Keep going."
Chi Xia and Luo Xun turned around at the same time, and both of them made the same oath gesture, with expressionless faces: "The people's police will always protect you."
Heizi was so frightened by their sinister tone and cold expressions that he slipped on the ground.
Luo Xun and Chi Xia reached out their hands at the same time and grabbed the person.
Heizi was aggrieved and sighed: "Yes, you read it right, the world in which only I am hurt has been achieved."
"Stop talking so much."
Luo Xun said helplessly: "We are looking for clues, not here to play."
"Oh...I'll be good, I will..."
Kuroko made a zipper motion with his mouth and followed them silently.
He was like a naughty kid who had been played mixed doubles by his parents, his eyes rolling around, wondering when he would win the game.
The three men, holding flashlights and occasionally using the pouring sunlight, entered four houses one after another to check.
When coming out of the fourth house, the road ahead was blocked by a large black curtain. Luo Xun lifted the cloth without thinking.
“I’ll go!”
A bright light suddenly appeared in his field of vision. Luo Xun was obviously frightened. He took a step back and blocked Chi Xia with his arm: "There is a chicken."
"Chicken?" Chi Xia stepped forward, lifted the cloth that was covering himself, and said, "Wow, what a good thing."
They saw a relatively empty space in front of them, and apart from some natural garbage, the only eye-catching thing was probably a large rooster made of brightly colored cloth.
Just then, a ray of light shone down from the broken roof, and it became a colorful big rooster shrouded in light.
Heizi was secretly delighted. Officer Chi was a girl, so it didn't matter if she wasn't scared. As long as Brother Xun was scared, he would feel a little more balanced.
He laughed to himself: "Oh, it's been a long time since I last came here. I forgot there was such a thing here..."
"Heizi, please don't think of anything else." Chi Xia looked earnestly, "Otherwise it will be meaningless."
Kuroko: ...
Okay, then he should just shut up completely.
So in the following time, Chi Xia and Luo Xun respectively saw the headless statue standing in the window frame, the sneering lion statue among the broken tables and chairs, the dark corridor full of red lanterns, and the mighty dragon head blocking their way.
The broken limbs and arms of the portraits and the heads with painted eyebrows and powder can basically be ignored.
The Chinese horror atmosphere is very strong.
"Ahhhhh! Ahhhhh! Oh my!"
Just as Chi Xia and Luo Xun were becoming more and more overwhelmed by this sense of uncertainty, in front of them, Heizi's shouting echoed throughout the theater.
"Who the hell is this bastard? I'm going to kill him! He almost scared me to death! I'm going to kill all his eight generations of ancestors! F**K! Ah!"
Chi Xia walked over and said, "They even got their genders mixed up. They must be really scared. Let's go take a look."
After walking a few steps, they saw Heizi. At this time, Brother Heizi was hiding in a corner, covering his fragile heart.
As soon as she saw Luo Xun and Chi Xia, she ran over. Just as she was about to throw herself into Luo Xun's arms, she was pinned down by his eyes. She turned around, grabbed Luo Xun's arm and hid behind him.
"Brother Xun! Look, which bastard did this! He scared me to death!"
He pointed, and Chi Xia and Luo Xun's flashlights shone over there at the same time.
First there is a half-human-height statue of Guan Gong .
After what happened just now, I was no longer surprised by these two people. I shone the two flashlights to the side again...
The female figure, wearing a red coat and a wig, lowered her head and leaned against the wall, with only one eye exposed as she looked at them sideways.
At first glance, she really looks like a vivid female ghost.
Chi Xia frowned as soon as she arrived here: "It stinks here."
"Yes! I smelled it too!" Heizi shouted, "You bastard! You pissed and defecated everywhere!"
"Is this thing so frightening that you even forget whether you are a man or a woman?"
The smell was a bit strange. Luo Xun teased Heizi and said, "Is it the stench of a rotting animal?"
Chi Xia didn't answer. She walked over and pushed aside the portrait's wig. She felt something was wrong.
She scowled and touched the figure's face to her feet.
“Fuck!” Heizi saw the face of the statue and pulled Luo Xun’s clothes: “This is a paper figure for the dead!”
Luo Xun's face also became stern.
Just as he was about to walk over, Chi Xia turned around and said in a cold voice, "Captain Luo, it's not a paper man, it's a dead man."
Wrapped in paper figurines.
A dead person.
