Chapter 72 The Murderer Who Disappeared

The lobby on the first floor was quiet. I moved Chen Qinghan to the bed, let him sleep with peace of mind, locked the door and held it with a chair.

Then he jumped down from the balcony, guarded outside the gate, and saw what the boss wanted to do.

The boss carried the missing woman from the guests who were sleeping horizontally, carried her out alone, and placed her outside the inn gate.

The boss put the person down and kept muttering, saying, take it away quickly, everyone is gathered together.

There was a strong fear in her tone, and after she finished speaking, she ran back to the inn in panic.

I hid in the thick fog beside the wall, watched her flashlight disappear, and quickly went out, carried the woman on the ground, climbed back to the balcony on the second floor, and hid her in our room.

The boss returned to the hall, put a white pill in the water cup, then drank the water from the cup, and fell asleep within a while.

I held up my cell phone, put her pills, drank water, and secretly took pictures of her sleeping after everyone. She must have thought that there was someone outside the window awake.

Then I went to the kitchen, took out the leftovers for tonight from the trash can, put them in a plastic bag, and prepared to keep them as evidence.

"Girl, you shouldn't meddle in other people's business." The middle-aged man who had fallen asleep suddenly sat up.

At this time, I was carrying a plastic bag containing leftovers and planned to hide it outside the inn.

"I didn't meddle in other people's business, and there was no standard for missing people. Everyone who stayed in this inn is a party. I was in charge of my own business." Although I was a little surprised, this level of emergencies was not enough to surprise me.

"But the boss has just left alone, so you can pretend not to know. As long as the number of this year is enough, you and I will be safe."

"Your sense of justice will harm yourself or your boyfriend."

Two middle-aged men acted like "experts" who knew everything, but unfortunately they were wrong. I was just out of curiosity, not a sense of justice.

"Why are you here? Watch the fun?"

"No, we are here to end it all, this is my business card."

I took the business card and glanced at the title and name on it. The two men turned out to be two brothers, one was named Xiong Aogang and the other was named Xiong Xiangba.

These two names made me dizzy, so I simply used Xiong Dai and Xiong Er instead. Anyway, they are two brothers.

"President of the Supernatural Expedition Association and director of the X Event Investigation Institute." I whispered the title on my business card. These two organizations must be civil organizations, but I can probably guess what they are going to do.

Their curiosity and desire to explore knowledge are much better than mine. I only participated by chance. They have nothing strange to do, and they have to participate even when they find strange things.

"I think you are not afraid of death. Since you have said this, don't mind sharing the information you know, right?"

"35 years ago, there was a serial murder case here. The police later found the bodies of seven victims, but the murderer never found them."

"It was also the day of the incident, with heavy fog and heavy rain. At that time, the owner of the inn was an old couple. There were a total of six guests staying in the inn that day."

The two took turns telling the information they knew. On a foggy and rainy night 35 years ago, there were eight people in the inn. Later, seven bodies were found by the police, and one person was missing.

There was only the inn owner and his wife and five other customers at the scene. No blood from the sixth customer was found, and no fingerprints were found.

But there were his bloody footprints at the scene, and all signs showed that this man killed the boss and his wife and five other residents.

Then this person evaporated from the world, and his bloody footprints only went to the yard outside the gate, and he could not find any traces after leaving the gate.

Unless the murderer spread his wings and flew away as soon as he was out of the hospital, and he flew into the mountains and never showed up again.

Otherwise, he would have been searched by the police. Although his ID card for check-in was fake and there were no cameras or surveillance cameras at that time, he was in a sparsely populated wilderness, and it was not that easy for prisoners to get involved in the crowd and go missing.

However, the fact is that the police have set up checkpoints on all nearby highways and still have no sign of the prisoner.

There are people guarding the road, and the person does not bring food and drink necessities, so it is impossible for him to hide in the mountains alone. If that is the case, it will be a dead end.

"Later, the inn changed hands several times, and every seven years there would be incidents of guests missing. Those who died in the inn will be kept. Anyone who left the inn will live without seeing anyone or dead."

I heard a key point and immediately asked, "You mean, once you leave the inn, the body will not be discovered even if you die?"

Xiong Da nodded, "Now, this boss was deceived by the original owner without knowing it. He spent all his savings to buy this place. He had no idea what happened in this place."

I asked, "If she didn't know, why should she send that woman out?"

Xiong Er sneered and said, "I'm afraid of death. Many people are more likely to believe in unknown things than in non-belief. You can tell our words out. If it is true, for the inn business and for her own life, she is likely to take extreme actions."

Xiong Da continued: "The previous homeowners also did similar things, and then attributed the disappearance of customers to accidents, and looked for a reason, such as immigrating and selling the inn."

The secret of the inn was thrown away by the deliberate concealment of these homeowners. Only when the fog landed again would it appear together with this secret.

35 years ago, the domestic tourism industry was not as developed as it is now. When the first case occurred, most of the guests staying in the inn were on business trips or going out for business, and came to stay in a while in bad weather.

But later, the tourism industry in Tibetan areas gradually flourished, and the inns never lacked the "lamb". In every seven years, there were only a few more and a few more guests living here.

Perhaps it was because there were too many people that the murderer stopped rushing in and stabbing randomly. He picked seven people and started attacking, not one more, nor one less.

"There is a question. The murderer committed crimes in the same place for more than 30 consecutive years. Where does he usually hide? How can he live on? Why can't the police find him?" I asked questions continuously, but looking at Xiong Da and Xiong Er's expressions, it seemed that I was very unnecessary to ask this.

"If it's a human, of course it can't come without a shadow or go without a trace. There are traffic surveillance on the roads now, and you can take pictures with a car. If he leaves when the fog is thick and cannot drive, and if the fog is dissipated, the car will be photographed. Therefore, he should have no car, and hiking in the mountains without bringing any food or water, no one can survive."

"You said this to be a lot of people just to prove that the murderer is not a human?"
