Huaihai City

The gentle warm sun shines on an office building, as if it has been coated with a layer of light golden color. In a room next to the floor-to-ceiling windows, a man in a cloak is lying on the sofa.

"Captain, has Minister Shao assigned any tasks in the past few days?" Tianping asked lazily while lying on the sofa.

Wang Mian shook his head, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind, "Why don't we take advantage of these few days of free time and bring Xiaochen with us to go for team building?"

Qiangwei's eyes lit up, "Team building is great, we haven't gone out to relax together for half a year, every day we're either running here or there, I'm exhausted."

"What do you think, Xiaochen?" Tianping intended to ask Chen Chen for his opinion.

"I'm fine with it. Let's see who's who." Chen Chen gradually began to like being with everyone. As long as they were together, they would go anywhere.

"Okay then!" Tianping immediately sat up from the sofa, "I'll call those guys who went out to buy food."

Jingle Bell--

"Hello?" Uzumaki answered the phone and saw that the caller was Tianping. He was a little confused, "What's wrong? Could it be that Minister Shao has given another mission?"

"No, no, no, the captain said we should go out for team building. Xiaochen just got here, so let's take the new guy out to relax."

"No problem." Uzumaki patted his chest and promised, "Then I'll buy some more things and you and the captain will choose a location for the team building as soon as possible."

"OK! Definitely."

……

In Yian City, next to Cangnan City.

There was a sudden roar on the quiet street, and the sound of sirens was particularly harsh. Several police cars were chasing an off-road jeep.

In the off-road jeep, two men wearing black stockings were frantically controlling the vehicle, and unknowingly, they had distanced themselves from the police car.

The engine performance of the two cars is different. The jeep's engine is several levels higher than that of the police car, so the police are destined to not be able to catch up with this car today.

In order to avoid being chased by the police and surveillance, the jeep drove directly to the edge of the city, where almost no one lived and there was only a lake and swamp.

Due to rumors that the lake and swamp area is haunted, the few families that originally lived there have all moved away, and even the nearest village is several miles away.

The two drove to the edge of the city about a few kilometers away from the lake, and then walked. In this way, it would be difficult for the police to find them even if they launched a carpet search in the huge city fringe area.

On a quiet night, on a deserted path in the woods, two figures hurriedly passed by. One of them spoke:

"Boss, there seems to be a house over there."

As soon as he finished speaking, the man who was called Boss looked in the direction he was looking. Sure enough, at the end of his field of vision, there was a very inconspicuous wooden house.

"Xiao Fei, let's go. We'll stay in this room tonight and leave tomorrow. I'm sure the police won't be able to find us now."

"Okay, boss." Xiao Fei put the handbag on his shoulder and followed the boss towards the cabin.

Around one or two o'clock in the morning.

——Squeak!

The rustling sound woke up the sleeping boss. He sat up suddenly, then looked around like a guilty thief, and slapped Xiaofei next to him to wake him up.

"Listen, is there any strange sound?"

Xiao Fei opened his eyes sleepily, put his hands to his ears, making them look like small trumpets, and listened outside the door.

After about two minutes, Xiao Fei also perked up and looked back at the boss, "It seems that there is indeed a sound outside."

"Come on, let's go out and take a look."

The boss took out the gun from his bag, loaded the bullet with two clicks, and then felt a little relieved. He held the gun and walked out the door step by step.

By the swamp lake, an old man was talking to himself, saying some strange things and sighing from time to time. The whole atmosphere seemed extremely weird in the early hours of the night.

The eldest brother squinted his eyes and could only see the man by the lake in the moonlight. "What is this old man howling for in the middle of the night? Damn it, he disturbed my sleep. I must kill him today!"

"go!"

The eldest brother stretched out his left hand and waved. Xiao Fei immediately understood and followed behind him. The two of them approached the old man by the lake cautiously.

The old man seemed to have noticed something, and then he looked back, and saw a pitch-black gun pointed at his head. The old man was frightened, and spoke tremblingly:

"Who are you? What do you want to do?"

"You damn old man!" The boss kicked him to the ground. The old man somersaulted several times before stopping. "Why are you yelling in the middle of the night? Don't you know I'm resting in the wooden house next door?"

"You'd better leave here quickly." The old man said fearfully but helplessly.

"Oh?" The boss didn't take his words seriously at all, "Let's leave quickly, you old man are quite capable, I will shoot you right now, do you believe it?"

"Oh!" The old man let out a long sigh.

The boss was furious. They were ruthless criminals who dared to kill people without blinking an eye and even rob banks. First, he was woken up by this old man in the middle of the night, and then he asked him to leave quickly. Now he was still sighing. If he didn't kill this old man, he would be confused!

——Crack!

The boss removed the safety bolt of the pistol, and the smell of gunpowder rushed out from the muzzle.

Just when the boss was confident that he could beat the old man to death, a vine suddenly sprang out from the lake, and almost in an instant, it was tied to the boss's legs, and then pulled him down.

blah blah-

In a panic, the boss fired several shots at the vines, but only a few sparks flew up, and the next moment, his body disappeared into the swamp.

Xiao Fei was so frightened that he started to run, but no matter how fast he was, he could not outrun the vines. With a scream of fear, he was submerged in the water and then there was no sound at all.

The old man looked at the lake for a long time and couldn't calm down.

He muttered to himself towards the air in the direction of the lake: "Jingming, why are you like this again? Killing is wrong. You can't kill anyone anymore, okay?"

But there was no response from the air, it was still deathly silent.

After a long time, a faint light appeared in the sky. The old man stood up, patted the dirt on his body, and walked unsteadily towards the nearest village.

Not long after he left, a few strange cries were heard from the lake: "Ah~Lu~"

Then two dark green rays of light shot towards the weeds by the lake. The weeds seemed to be nourished by something and began to grow wildly. Finally, they stopped when they reached a height of one meter.

If you look closely, you can see that the field is already covered with one-meter-high weeds.

The monster in the lake seemed to be in a very satisfied mood and let out a few more excited roars.
