Chapter 118 The Strange Car Reappears

Everyone got up and returned to the studio office.

After gathering everyone together, Chen Mo briefly explained the situation.

Li Wenjing was dealing with contract matters and wasn't present; otherwise, she would have been the most suitable person to do this job.

Clear-headed, articulate, and logically sound, Jiang Mingyang has unearthed a treasure for him!

Lin Xiao pondered for a moment and said, "This sounds like a typical case of a recurring earthbound spirit, but usually these kinds of phenomena wouldn't actively attack unrelated targets, right?"

Chen Mo said, "Hmm, there must be something special about Wang Jianguo that we haven't discovered yet, or the minibus itself has undergone some unknown change, otherwise the car that appeared in Jingpu District wouldn't have appeared in Xilin District, let alone been spotted by me."

Upon hearing this, Li Wenjing immediately said, "Boss, Wang Jianguo has already signed the electronic contract. However, the deposit will arrive in the account a little later. If needed, I will immediately go back to the car accident report from the Seventh Textile Factory back then and find all the records related to that area."

Zhou Mingyu added, "We also need to look up records related to the minibuses, and we need to conduct a more in-depth investigation and comparison of Wang Jianguo's background. You probably can't handle all of this by yourself, so I'll help you."

"Mm." Li Wenjing nodded.

Lin Xiao said, "By the way, after you two find the relevant intelligence, don't rush to look at it in detail. First, summarize and print out all the information and put it aside. We'll come back later and help you look at it together. That will be much more efficient."

Chen Mo immediately nodded: "Brother Xiao is right. Let's do it this way. Sister Jing, you go find the information first. The rest of us will go and take a look at that dead-end road. We'll come back and study it together after we've looked at it."

Li Wenjing said, "Aren't we going to wait until the deposit arrives before we set off?"

Chen Mo picked up the now-cold coffee he had brought back from the coffee shop and took a sip.

A bitter taste instantly spread across his tongue, and he shook his head.

"I can't wait any longer. It involves minibuses, so I'll consider it my own choice." He put down his cup and made the decision. "Let's take advantage of the daylight to go and check out the site first, just in case things change tonight."

"You're still kind-hearted!" Su Yifan revealed his true colors.

"go!"

Everyone immediately stood up and got to work: "Okay!"

Half an hour later, the black SUV slowly came to a stop on the side of the road, not far from the former site of the Seventh Textile Factory, still some distance away.

In the afternoon sunlight, the outlines of several dilapidated factory buildings in the distance appeared particularly desolate.

There are still a few scattered households here, so there shouldn't be any major danger.

Ahead, on the perimeter of the long-abandoned factory area, the barbed wire is crooked and broken, and the anti-corrosion coating on the outside has almost completely peeled off, revealing scarlet rust spots, which looks quite creepy.

The surrounding area was overgrown with weeds, almost reaching the height of Chen Mo's neck.

After scouting the surrounding area, the group quickly located the Seventh Textile Factory.

The dead-end road that Wang Jianguo mentioned is located behind the factory area, partially hidden by a sparse grove of trees.

"It's difficult to drive ahead, so let's park the car here and walk over," Chen Mo said.

After everyone got out of the car, Zhou Mingyu took an equipment box from the trunk.

Inside, besides the usual high-powered flashlight and basic first aid kit, there was also a modified environmental monitoring device and several matchbox-sized wireless cameras.

After handing the camera over to someone else, he stayed by the car, fiddling with the equipment while continuously taking pictures of the surrounding environment to record any possible details or clues.

The others went to explore the surrounding area.

Lin Xiao was the first to cross the collapsed barbed wire fence. His movements were nimble and alert, and his eyes, like a scanner, swept over the surrounding weeds and dilapidated walls.

"The visibility here isn't great, A-Jie, watch your step and your sides."

Lin Xiao's voice was low, but it sounded very clear amidst the silent ruins...

Li Haojie was right behind him. Compared to Lin Xiao, his Yin-Yang Eyes made him more sensitive to his surroundings.

He frowned involuntarily and said in a low voice, "This place... I feel uncomfortable just staying here. Ugh... Is it really this eerie in broad daylight?"

Su Yifan's Yin-Yang Eyes are only at the level of night vision. Unless the spiritual energy is high, he can only have a general perception.

Chen Mo walked at the very back, carefully observing the surrounding environment.

The level of yin energy in this area was more intense than he had anticipated.

Especially in the direction leading to the dead end, in that place where the sun never shines, the gray fog seems to be drawn together in the same direction.

He was taken aback; the air here was thick with yin energy!

As the group walked through the abandoned factory area, the dead-end road that Wang Jianguo had mentioned came into view.

The road surface is cracked, and tenacious weeds grow in the cracks. Even after it rains, you can still see the wound-like cracks.

At the end of the road was a mottled brick wall with a large "Stop" sign painted in red, which had faded and looked somewhat pink.

According to Wang Jianguo's account, this should be the place where he encountered the minibus.

The drone took off, and through its camera, it saw that everyone had arrived at the location. Zhou Mingyu immediately pulled up a map of the surrounding area.

He remotely directed Li Haojie and Su Yifan to install wireless cameras in various corners of the surrounding area.

The camera doesn't need charging and can last for about a week. It has an infrared device installed, which provides good night vision.

Chen Mo and Lin Xiao walked slowly along the roadside, scanning the ground and the weeds beside the road, not missing a single detail.

Lin Xiao squatted down, picked up a bit of soil from the roadside with his fingers, and sniffed it.

"There are no obvious tire tracks here, and there is no other smell. Several days have passed since the incident, and the area has been washed by rain, so it is difficult to determine the cause."

Apart from the smell of soil and decaying plants, there was no strong rust and putrid odor as described by Wang Jianguo.

It seems that the smell was emanating from the car and appeared along with the car.

Chen Mo walked to the brick wall at the end and inspected it.

The wall itself was normal, but the shadows at the base of the wall were particularly thick with traces of yin energy, almost solidified, as if they were alive and slowly wriggling.

Even with the shade provided by the wall, it's definitely not normal for such a strong yin energy to gather in the open air in the afternoon...

Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed some unusual things scattered in the corner of the wall.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be several pieces of dark-colored cardboard that had been weathered and were almost completely broken.

Chen Mo squatted down and examined it carefully, vaguely seeing blurry numbers and letters on the paper.

"Brother Xiao, there's something here, come and take a look," Chen Mo gestured.

Lin Xiao turned his head and also noticed these things, and immediately stepped forward.

He examined it for a moment, completely baffled: "It looks like a fragment of a train ticket?"

Chen Mo frowned in thought: "I also think it's similar, but Jinghai City hasn't used paper tickets for many years..."
