Chapter 30 Return to the Ruins Please read and reward
After a simple opening statement, Chen Xixi suddenly said: "By the way, brother, have you heard that there have been a lot of disappearances in Los Angeles recently. I see there is a lot of buzz on the Internet. Brother, have you read the news?" p>
"Missing? I know for sure. Why, someone in your school is also missing?" Chen Mo frowned.
Hearing the concern in her brother's words, Chen Xixi felt warm and continued: "That's not true. However, someone in our high school class did ask if they could have a holiday. I don't think that's necessarily true.
Yes. But a lot of strange things have happened recently, and I feel very nervous when I walk at night."
"Well, you should go home early after school, and remember not to hang out at night. If you need anything, please contact me anytime." Chen Mo said in a serious tone.
"I know." Chen Xixi stuck out her tongue, "Hey, brother, they were chatting again, and I heard that another woman had disappeared inexplicably. They even sent pictures... Tsk, what are these things?" Chen Mo took a look at the picture sent by Chen Xixi. The picture should be of a hotel room. Everything in it was normal, but there were faint blood stains on the wall. The police had already set up a cordon.
Is it another disappearance case?
However, the next moment, Chen Mo's pupils suddenly shrank.
In the picture, among the people eating melons, there is a middle-aged man with dark hair.
This man wears a pair of black-rimmed glasses and has a poker face that could easily be labeled as old-fashioned.
His eyelids drooped, and there was only a thin gap between the upper and lower eyelids. No matter how much his eyeballs moved left and right, it seemed that he could not open his upper and lower eyelids.
It's just that the eyes in the middle of the slit give people a cold feeling.
Chen Mo has seen this person before!
When he checked into the Golden Wutong Hotel, it was this man who happened to come downstairs to talk to him.
"It's not such a coincidence..." Chen Mo murmured to himself.
"What, brother, what are you talking about?"
"Oh, it's nothing. Well, I'll hang up now. I have something to do at work, so you can take care of yourself."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Mo's face looked a little gloomy.
There is definitely a problem with the identity of this middle-aged man. Not only does he know the fact that the missing girl is dead, but he also frequently appears at different crime scenes.
However, this alone is not enough. The body must be found to have evidence.
Chen Mo shook his head, shook off the complicated thoughts, and decided to go shopping in the supermarket.
After arriving at the supermarket, Chen Mo bypassed a pile of promotional toilet paper and cans and walked directly to the special offer area.
This supermarket has specials every night, selling some meat and vegetables that are not too fresh, snacks that are about to expire, and unsalable milk drinks, which are all things he often eats.
It's not that he is frugal, but because Chen Mo is really poor. Even though he now has some financial channels, he still has to save money.
After all, the economic situation in China as a whole is not very good.
House prices are ridiculously high, and many companies have inexplicably closed down due to nepotism as the real economy is on the verge of collapse. Even several banks have closed.
What stood on the rooftop were not romantic lovers admiring the moon, but desperate people queuing up to jump off the building. Even in the park, homeless people with dull expressions were often seen.
"Go buy some seasonings. You may have to live there for a while in the future."
Salt, monosodium glutamate, cooking wine, cinnamon... Chen Mo chose them all, and then took a lot of each. He was too lazy to run, and the seasonings were not as durable as other things.
"A total of 97 yuan." In front of the checkout counter, a clerk weighed the spices that Chen Mo brought over. Then, after calculating the total price, he quickly helped Chen Mo put them into a bag.
"Okay." Chen Mo paid the money and was about to go out when he saw another girl walking in outside the supermarket:
This woman has a calm face and indifferent eyes.
He is a ruthless person.
Chen Mo made an evaluation of this woman in his heart.
Many people don’t know how to measure temperament. You say she has a good temperament, but you don’t know which element of her body makes you think she has a good temperament.
In Chen Mo's view, temperament is related to a person's living environment.
People who have been in high positions for a long time often make people feel calm and self-confident. This is not because they are born like this, but because they have been in a core position for a long time and can command others. Therefore, when they get along with each other in daily life, they will naturally still lead them.
Enter this position.
Similarly, people who have really seen blood, people who have really killed people, when they cross that threshold, they will actually realize that there is not much difference between people and pigs and dogs, they are all the same, and they will die if they are killed.
It's just a matter of a bullet and a knife.
When Chen Mo and the girl looked at each other, he felt that the whole world quickly faded into black and white, leaving only the girl in front of him in color.
Time stopped passing at this moment, like a frozen painting.
And in the next moment, Chen Mo's turbulent heart returned to calm, and he walked out as normal.
Love at first sight?
Those that don’t exist are just motivated by sex.
Moreover, the reason why Chen Mo was surprised was not because of the other party's appearance, but because this woman was the one who appeared in Chen Mo's field of vision several times and wandered around the Golden Wutong Hotel.
Is she following me?
Chen Mo gave up the idea of going up to ask directly, bought the things and walked back home.
Chen Mo carried the things he bought from the supermarket and walked upstairs. When he got to the fourth floor and was about to open the door, he suddenly felt a chill on his scalp and kept the door motion motionless.
He suddenly looked up and saw a red eye staring directly at him on the stairs of the fifth floor.
The pupil of that eye was painful, dilated, and exuded a sense of death, but the upper and lower eyelids seemed to be held open by an invisible force.
Those were the eyes of a woman, the eyes of a female corpse. She was lying on the ground, with the left side of her face close to the ground, one eye pressed underneath, and her limbs were twisted strangely, as if they had been broken and then reassembled.
It’s as if it’s sticky.
This scene made Chen Mo, who had just reached this position, feel a creepy feeling.
In the blink of an eye, the woman disappeared.
Did you see a ghost?
"Unlucky, this place is really unlucky." Chen Mo entered the code lock, opened the door, and entered his room.
It was already evening and he felt a little tired, so he planned to take a bath first and then eat something.
While taking a shower,
"Deng Deng..."
"Crash."
A strange sound came from above the head, followed by a muffled sound like Erha was demolishing a house.
"Dong, dong...dong."
"What's going on upstairs?" Chen Mo turned off the faucet after taking a shower, his face obviously impatient.
The day has been tiring enough, and the guy upstairs is still restless.
Moreover, it was like this yesterday, the noise almost kept him from sleeping in the middle of the night.
He secretly decided in his heart: "Forget it, in order to sleep well tonight, if there is anything weird, I will go upstairs and solve it today."
Just when Chen Mo was drying off his body and putting on his clothes, and was about to go upstairs to settle accounts, a mission reminder sounded in his mind.
