Judgment Day [Unlimited]

When the others heard this, their expressions were not very good-looking, and even the relatively calm elite man swallowed: "So, what is the human-faced dog we are investigating?"

"Nonsense," Brother Jinlian said angrily, "A dog with a human face is not a dog, but it can still be a human."

"As the name suggests, it should be a dog with a human face." Xie Xingyin also said.

The elite man said, "Something like a sphinx?"

Sphinx, the sphinx monster statue in front of the Khufu Pyramid, also known as the Sphinx.

"It should be about the same. The Sphinx has a human head and a sphinx body, but if it is a dog, it will be a human-faced dog."

Everyone else present imagined that the human-faced dog had a human face but crawled on the ground with a dog's body, and looked up from the garbage dump. They all felt a deep chill and shivered three times.

Is there really such a thing.

While everyone was discussing, the little boy was still sitting on the sofa and continued to turn the Rubik's Cube with his head down, innocent and romantic, as if this game had nothing to do with him.

The strange old man's eyes fell on him, and his gray eyeballs turned an arc: "All of you here are the best detectives from all over the world, volunteering to participate in the investigation of the human-faced dog incident."

"Who volunteered—"

Brother Jinlian yelled in dissatisfaction, and suddenly found that everyone was looking at him, even the strange old man stared directly at him, his eyes were quite frightening.He quickly shut his mouth.

After he was quiet, the old detective continued: "The winner will be rewarded."

"I want to go home." Li Wei muttered in a low voice, her eyes flushed as if she was about to cry, "Can I leave if I catch the Human Face Dog?"

The old detective looked dull, and his gray eyes scanned her for a moment.

"But if you don't succeed, you don't get rewarded," he said.

What happens if you don't succeed?Everyone already has the answer in their hearts.

"This is my first time here, I don't want to die." Li Wei covered her eyes with her hands, her voice choked up, wondering if she was crying.

"I don't want to either." Xie Xingyin shrugged.

The old detective seemed to be amused by their conversation, and he showed a hair-raising smile with the corners of his lips curled up in a rare way: "Hey, I just like to see people who are afraid of death."

"It's not that I'm afraid of death, it's that I don't want to die." Xie Xingyin said.

He hasn't lived enough.

The old detective didn't argue with him: "...the information on the Human-Mask Dog case is on the file cabinet over there. The second cabinet is on the third floor. That's right. Take out the folder, it will be useful."

A bulky old-fashioned three-story filing cabinet stood beside Xie Xingyin, and the wooden door was inlaid with dusty glass.

Xie Xingyin, who was the closest, walked over and opened the door of the cabinet, and sure enough, he found a folder with the label "Human Face Dog" on the top floor, and took it down.

The words "Human Face Dog" written in the pen were blurred, and there were several investigation reports in the folder, as well as some old photos, testimonial letters and other things.

Xie Xingyin opened it and quickly scanned it, then handed it to the elite men around him for circulation.

Most of the materials and pictures are somewhat incomplete and damaged, and some photos are still in black and white, but the general meaning can still be seen clearly. Most of the content is similar to the news report they just read.

"Brother Xie, what do you mean?" Li Wei came over at some point and looked at him with her head.

"... Wangchuan Apartment is a local single apartment." Xie Xingyin knew that she dared not look at those bloody profile photos, and explained to her, "Reporter Huizi lives on the 14th floor of Wangchuan Apartment. She published an article claiming that she met A monster with a human head and a dog's body "Human Face Dog."

"After the article was published, more and more residents of Wangchuan Apartment claimed to have witnessed a human-faced dog. However, these witnesses all died strangely after writing their report letters."

"Half a year later, the Wangchuan Apartment was completely closed. It is rumored that this is an apartment cursed by a human-faced dog..."

"Is there really such a thing?"

After hearing his words, Li Wei took a deep breath.

"What did the old man say just now, asking us to find the human-faced dog, will we die too?"

"Bah, what the hell! What are you talking about, it's unlucky!" Brother Jinlian yelled.

Xie Xingyin glared at him, only then did Brother Jinlian turn his head away cursing.

The old detective ignored them and steered his wheelchair to the wall to turn on the light.Xie Xingyin looked out the window, he didn't pay attention when chatting, the sky was already dark.

The old detective turned on the light and turned around in the wheelchair: "It's getting late, let's take you to check in."

"Where are we staying tonight?" The girl closest to him glanced up at the stairs leading to the second floor.

It was so dark up there that I couldn't see what was there.

But the old detective didn't plan to let them live in the detective agency.He fumbled in his bosom for a while, and found out a bunch of jingling keys.

"Come with me." He showed a weird smile, "You will live in Wangchuan Apartment tonight."

—

The crowd followed the old man out of the detective agency and headed south along the street.

There are no street lights on the street at night, the shop windows are dark, and the lanterns hanging at the door are still flickering red, like a scene in a horror movie.

The north wind blowing from behind brought a piercing coolness, and everyone lined up to follow closely, for fear of being left in this ghost place.

Walking in front of Xie Xingyin was a fortune teller, wearing a tattered gown, with a goatee, sunglasses on the bridge of his nose, and a crooked flag on his back that read "Fortune-telling 500 coins once".

He grabbed a lady beside him and said in a serious manner:

"...Pindao looked at the sky last night and thought it was a supernatural incident caused by evil spirits. Don't be alarmed, the benefactor. I see that your seal is black. Do you want to count it in?"

The fat woman in the decolorized fake mink fur coat heard this, as if she was afraid that he would buy and sell her for 500 yuan by force, she frowned and took two steps to the side with her high heels on, and took her husband's arm.

"Where did the beggar come from?! Don't count, get out of here." The woman scolded.

Xie Xingyin turned his head and saw that the young man was walking at the end of the crowd, his appearance was still sickly, pale and dignified.Sure enough, newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, and the big brother Jinlian is almost scared to pee. This kid is so big that he is still playing with the Rubik's Cube.

"Come on, don't fall behind." After all, he was a child, so Xie Xingyin pulled him back worriedly.

The little boy looked up at him and obediently put the Rubik's Cube into his pocket, but his pretty face remained expressionless and did not speak, just staring at him with those deep eyes full of fragmented light.

Seeing that he didn't resist, Xie Xingyin led the obedient young boy forward, feeling like a strange uncle who kidnapped a child.

The fortune teller was walking in front of them. He didn't know whether he was carrying copper plates or something in his pocket. He walked with a tinkling sound, and half a broken book was exposed in the gray-blue cloth bag, which read "Book of Changes" Two words.

This street is not very long, and it is halfway through after a while.

Walking absent-mindedly, Li Wei suddenly found that Xie Xingyin was gone, and slowed down to look for them at the end of the line.

"Thank you brother?"

Xie Xingyin was talking to the young boy in a low voice, while Li Wei stared at him silently.

This man has light flaxen blond hair, deep eyes that can be seen to be a bit of mixed race, but his facial features are not too sharp, on the contrary, he has a strong oriental beauty.

Li Wei asked curiously: "Brother Xie, is your hair dyed?"

Xie Xingyin shook his head: "No, like my mother."

"Oh, the light linen gold is so pretty. I'm going to dye it after I go out." Li Wei stroked her slightly curly hair and said with a wink.Suddenly thought of something, and she fell silent again.

"Thank you." When Xie Xingyin smiled, the corners of his eyes slightly curved, "We will go out."

It's winter in the real world now, except for those like Xie Xingyin who are sitting on the sofa at home blowing the air conditioner, Li Wei wears the least clothes.

She was wearing a preppy uniform, a navy blue vest and a pleated skirt, knee-length socks and round-toed shoes, and she walked very well.

The climate in this unfamiliar environment was mild, like spring and summer. The lady in the mink fur coat in front of them had already taken off the clothes and held them in her hands, revealing her round shoulders.

Xie Xingyin silently turned his eyes away, anyway, he would never understand the preferences of young girls.

The old detective was in a wheelchair and had trouble walking fast on the uneven sidewalks.After walking for about 5 minutes, "Here we are."

The wheelchair of the old detective in front stopped.Everyone looked up one after another, and then took a deep breath.

At the end of the street stands a lonely building, surrounded by bare open space, the lifeless gray and white buildings and the colorful commercial streets are completely different styles.

It was already dark, and it was an apparently normal apartment building. Under the dim light and shadow, the whole building was dark, and the only door that was open was like a mouth that opened in the dark, waiting for the prey to enter.

The apartment building is overgrown with weeds, and it looks like it hasn't been cleaned for a long time.

"After the case happened ten years ago, no one lived here," said the old detective.

Li Wei had already hid behind Xie Xingyin, afraid of being thrown away by him, this time she just tugged at the hem of his clothes.

Xie Xingyin stared at the door, his thin lips pursed into a line.Among other things, the house had an odd orientation.

Ordinary houses are facing south, which is convenient for lighting, but the front door of the apartment in front of them is actually facing north, facing the direction they came from.

The place of gathering shade.

"Sitting south and facing north, this is a damn house." The god stick beside him shook his folding fan as if he was afraid of the heat, and suddenly opened his mouth.Xie Xingyin glanced at him and remembered that there was a fortune teller here.

"Do you know Feng Shui?" Xie Xingyin vaguely felt that this place was gloomy, maybe even materialism wouldn't work.

"Know a thing or two." Seeing him asking himself, the magic stick immediately felt complacent, and asked, shaking his fan, "Poverty Dao's real name is Liang Xin. You can call me Daoist Liang or Lao Liang. Dare I ask what is the name of this little brother?"

Xie Xingyin thought of his price of 500 yuan as a hexagram, and seemed to have no conscience.But he didn't say it, and he also reported his name.

In front, the old detective ignored the faces of the others, and maneuvered the wheelchair forward to pull open the heavy anti-theft iron door.

After opening the door, he took the key of the room from the ring and gave them to them, saying before leaving:

"Maximum two people can live in one room. The dormitory will be allocated before tonight, and the room is not allowed to be left empty every night for seven days. The door cannot be opened after eleven o'clock."

After the old detective handed over the keys, he showed a weird smile, rolled his wheelchair and left without looking back.Others stood outside the open apartment door and stared, no one wanting to be the first to go in.

"Damn it, the old man said that there is such a dog in Wangchuan's apartment, why did he let us in?" one of the Jiguantou boys brought by Brother Jinlian yelled.

"Nonsense, nonsense," another boy with sly eyebrows stuttered, and slapped the boy with a cockscomb head on the head, messing up his hairstyle. "Why don't you go in, how to adjust and investigate."

"Then don't let us live in it!" Jiguantou scolded, "This place is too fucking disgusting, sleeping in a garbage room is better than sleeping in a house that has been sleeping dead. I don't want to go, Brother Biao, why should we listen? That old man?"

Xie Xingyin turned around and saw that there was actually a school on the opposite side, and jokingly said to Lao Liang: "It's still a school district house. The location here is good, and the property fee is probably not cheap."

Looking at the empty playground, Lao Liang shivered, "There's not even a single person..."

While talking, a courageous veteran had already walked into the apartment first.

Brother Na Biao looked burly, but in fact he was not very courageous. He stood at the door with his two younger brothers and watched hesitantly.

Xie Xingyin glanced at them, and Lao Liang and the others followed in.

The interior of this apartment was unexpectedly clean and bright, as if it was cleaned every day.

The door of the apartment is located in the center of the corridor on the first floor, and there are rooms on both sides of the corridor extending left and right.

It was dark outside and the wind was blowing hard.After someone took the lead, the rest of the people followed, even Ji Guantou, who would rather die than surrender just now, also followed straight away.

Everyone goes through the door.

Outside the gate of the apartment, the vine-clad outer wall was mottled and peeled off, and the vine leaves were blown by the gloomy night wind, revealing the four large characters written in red paint on the wall.

"No Entry."
