Chapter 121 The Strange Car Reappears

Seconds later, along with the chilling aura and pungent odor, the entire car vanished without a trace.

The spot was now empty, just a bare concrete floor, as if everything that had just happened was an illusion.

But everyone knew that it was definitely not an illusion!

After a while, the curtains behind the second-floor window were pulled open, and Wang Jianguo's pale face appeared in the room under the indoor light, clearly quite frightened by the car.

It was nearly midnight, and many people were asleep.

The lingering heat of late summer hasn't subsided yet, and everyone has their windows closed and air conditioning on. The low sobbing sounds from inside the car are so faint that they're barely enough to wake someone who's just sleeping.

Apart from Wang Jianguo, almost no one noticed this scene.

"It's gone..." Zhou Mingyu murmured, staring blankly at the spot where the minibus was gradually disappearing.

Su Yifan's expression was grave as he whispered, "This time it was an active attack, and the target was very clear, so there must be something crucial on Wang Jianguo that we haven't found yet."

Chen Mo stared silently at the spot where the minibus had disappeared.

After a while, Wang Jianguo came down to open the door. After a brief conversation, Li Wenjing calmed him down, and then everyone went back inside.

Before leaving, Chen Mo instructed Wang Jianguo to carefully consider the events he had recently encountered, and also indicated that these matters were very important to the investigation. If there were any concealed details, they would not be able to determine what changes might occur between China and Pakistan.

Tonight's situation terrified Wang Jianguo, who nodded repeatedly in agreement.

"Let's go back and check the security footage. See if there's anything unusual where it appeared!"

……

On the way back, Zhou Mingyu reviewed the surveillance footage but found nothing unusual, while Li Wenjing made a new discovery in the database.

When Chen Mo returned to the firm, it was already late at night, and everyone else had already gone home.

Although Li Wenjing's face showed a hint of fatigue, her eyes were unusually bright. Clearly, she had made an important discovery.

"Jing-jie, have you found anything over there?"

Li Wenjing immediately synchronized her laptop with the desktop computer at her workstation. The screen displayed a yellowed scanned document, not very clear, but the handwriting was still legible.

Chen Mo frowned. The content of the picture looked like a page from some kind of internal record or ledger.

"I searched through almost every database and archive I could think of, including some municipal and industrial files that required special access and had been sealed for a long time, before I finally found this picture."

"This is the channel that Mingyu found before. I only saw it after you left and it was given to me. On my way back just now, I found this in an encrypted folder."

She zoomed in on a portion of the document, which contained a list and brief notes typed on an old-fashioned typewriter. The handwriting was somewhat blurry, but still legible.

"This is the list of the deceased mentioned in the public reports back then!" Li Wenjing pointed to the names on the list and the notes following them.

"Look here, the list is divided into two columns. The names in the left column are marked as confirmed dead or seriously injured and died. The number is... eleven."

She paused, then moved her finger to the column on the right. The names in this column were marked as either relocated or under special circumstances, with a total of seven people.

"These seven people on the right have disappeared from all publicly available records!"

Li Haojie's face turned pale: "Disappeared? What do you mean?"

"No death report, no compensation record, no related records, not even any follow-up information, it's like he vanished into thin air!" Li Wenjing's voice was filled with disbelief.

Chen Mo pressed further, "Did you erase everything that happened afterward, or did you also erase all previous records?"

Li Wenjing said, "There's nothing more after that, and all their contact information with the factory has been deleted. There are no records to be found, as if they had no connection whatsoever. Moreover, according to the date on this internal document, it was three days after that car accident!"

This news was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, stirring up huge waves in everyone's hearts.

"Relocation? Special circumstances?" Su Yifan repeated these two words, his brows furrowed. "A car accident that caused serious casualties, and seven people who should have been in the car were not included in the casualty list, but were instead secretly transferred?"

Lin Xiao stared at the screen: "This means that the car accident back then was likely not as simple as an accident. Are these people who were moved insiders?"

His bold conjecture made the atmosphere even more tense. He crossed his arms and continued his calm analysis: "If it was to silence them or cover up the truth, wouldn't it be cleaner to just 'die' them outright? The fact that they were specifically marked as relocated suggests that they were still alive at the time, and that they had value to some people. That makes sense, doesn't it?"

Although Li Haojie was still confused, he understood that this was a serious matter: "My God! So that ghost car was chasing Wang Jianguo not because it thought he was easy to bully, but because he was involved in that mess from back then?"

"Very likely," Chen Mo finally spoke. "Wang Jianguo is either a descendant of these relocated people, or he accidentally came into contact with these people, or with some kind of medium related to that car accident, and was thus marked by that minibus."

"Wait a minute, Brother Mo, didn't you encounter that once before? What happened to those three college students?"

Chen Mo shook his head, indicating that he didn't know. He secretly pondered that perhaps he could get the information on these three college students from his father and then analyze it...

The next moment, he remembered something, and a hint of unease flashed across his face: "Sister Jing, check the top ten strange stories in Jinghai City."

Li Wenjing immediately said, "I already checked. The Seventh Textile Factory is located inside. There have been more than one paranormal rumor about the factory, but none of them are related to this car..."

"Irrelevant?" Chen Mo sighed. He only remembered that one of the Ten Great Mysteries was the Seventh Textile Factory, but he hadn't really paid attention to what it was about.

At present, the two seem to have no connection on the surface, but this is not absolute and requires a detailed investigation to rule out.

"It's okay, just put this cable in too, we can do it together when we're collecting information. We might need it later, since it's local."

Zhou Mingyu said, "If you're local, you can ask Lao Tong!"

Chen Mo hummed in agreement: "It's too late today. He lives with his family, so it's not very convenient. I'll ask him tomorrow morning."

Following this line of thought, Su Yifan analyzed: "According to what Brother Mo said before, if it was marked by the minibus, this would explain why the ghost minibus would take the initiative to come to us and be so aggressive."

mark?

He immediately recalled the last time he was hit by a car, which seemed to be because he interfered with the car picking someone up, and then the car chased after him!

Zhou Mingyu nodded: "Yes, I think it's very likely, because the client's house is not far from the road we went to this afternoon, only a 5-minute drive away, while it would take 15 minutes for our studio to get to the client's house even with all green lights."

Su Yifan said, "There's one more detail you shouldn't forget: the car disappeared from the surveillance footage almost half a minute before the client called! It didn't just drive by slowly!"
