Chapter 973 The lake is dry
At dawn, Chen Qinghan returned the small truck to the unit's warehouse, and we rode the electric bike back to the office.
Anna paid her deposit very quickly. Just after eight o'clock in the morning, all the businessmen received a transfer on their WeChat account.
We know that she has no money on her, and she didn't get the money for selling the house so quickly. It was probably borrowed by her family.
When the money is in place, people will be in place.
Since she is so anxious, we are the first customer first. Shunfeng ordered the earliest flight for me.
The luggage I traveled for was the simplest, and there was nothing to pack. I only carried a mountaineering bag and set off.
What I want to deal with this time is not to use special weapons, and it is enough to have my karma fire.
Before leaving, Chen Qinghan stuffed two books into my backpack and asked me to study on the plane!
I didn't read it at that time, so I waited on the plane to make time to flip my backpack, took out two books and took a look, one of which was a complete planting book and one of which was a breeding technology.
The book is thicker than the brick, and I have less luggage.
I had to complete the homework assigned by Professor Chen, but when someone was sleeping with his head covered, I was reading books seriously.
When the plane arrived in Luo City, I only turned five pages of the planting list. I can't blame me. This book has magic. To be precise, its fifth page has magic. Whenever I turn to the fifth page, I will fall asleep.
What is this magic? What is it to make a non-human who doesn't need to sleep suddenly sleepy?
Before getting off the plane, I put away the "magic book" that Chen Qinghan brought to me.
When I got off the plane, someone came to pick me up. In the morning, when I went to Capital Airport, he started to arrange these for me. He used to run around the world and was familiar with this business. The driver he hired from afar drove me to the farm.
21 years have passed, and the farm Anna and her ex-boyfriend went to was said to have gone bankrupt.
I don’t know where Anna’s relatives moved, but I heard from the driver that most of the farms in that place have transformed into tourism and I can pick strawberries if I go.
I came here as a tourist and definitely wanted to "play" something. The driver introduced me to the local game project. I followed his words and asked where I could play in the water.
Forget it at the beach, I said I was allergic to sea water, preferably a river or a lake.
The driver is a local expert. He often attracts foreign tourists and occasionally serves as a tour guide.
He thought for a while and said that there was indeed a lake near the farm before, but now the lake is dry.
I asked him if he would take me to see it, the place was a little far from the city.
The driver agreed readily and said, "You are the boss." I promised that if the accommodation fee is incurred, I would take all the expenses.
When we arrived at the farm, it was already supper time and the farm was about to close.
We had to find a hotel nearby. When Chen Qinghan hired a driver, he asked him to prepare an extra bicycle.
Of course, the bicycles we rented.
I left the driver to rest in the hotel, and I rode my bike out, and the driver reminded me that it was going dark and it was unsafe for me to go out alone.
I reassure him that I know how to do kung fu.
At my speed, it took an hour and a half to ride from the hotel to the farm, and another two hours to ride from the farm to the lake.
I set off from the hotel at 6pm and rode to the place where Anna's nightmare began at around 9pm.
The lake she had seen before was actually not completely dry, but the water was mostly less.
The cottage by the lake was gone, so I took a photo and sent it to Anna and asked her if it was here.
It was daytime in China, and Anna quickly replied to me, saying 'It's here'.
I found the location of the cabin, pulled out the small shovel I carried with me, and shoveled off the grass on the surface of the ground.
The cottage should have been demolished, but Chen Qinghan judged that the immortal monster was still in the house.
If the person who demolished the house found that there was a 'corpse' in the house, he would definitely be sent to the police station.
Anna and the others had nothing to do back then, because the police did not find the body in the fired house.
The two underages set fire, but they did not burn anyone to death.
When Anna later got the news from her classmates, she had speculation in her heart, but she didn't dare to say it.
She still remembered the woman who was covered in fire, and could not forget the screams that the woman made when she ran out of the house.
The police searched for the body in the house, but most of them could not be found because the burned woman ran out.
Anna is an eyewitness, but she is also a participant. She thought about providing clues to the police, but she was afraid of causing trouble.
In the end, she chose to remain silent and quickly returned to China with her ex-boyfriend, just pretending that the incident had never happened, and she didn't even say anything about her parents and family.
I dug on the ground for a long time and didn't find the foundation, or the house might have a basement clue.
It seemed that the house was not her hiding place, so I walked to the lake with a shovel.
When Anna saw the woman rushing out of the house, a man covered in fire, what would she look for?
I stared at the lake in front of me and it looked like a mud pit now.
I looked up at the sky and it was very good. The moon was dark and the wind was high. I turned off the flashlight and listened quietly for a while. It was good, no one was around.
The fire of karma burned the water at the bottom of the lake in just one moment. The dark clouds above my head blocked the light of the stars and moon. Taking advantage of the darkness of the earth, I released the fire of karma and burned the lake water to the essence, and burned a layer of mud at the bottom of the lake.
The lake is shaped like a gyro. Although the lake is surrounded by rocks and weeds, its edges are too round and not very similar to natural ones, but rather like artificial lakes.
The slope is the same, it seems to be dug out manually, and the bottom is not obvious. Anyway, I burned it, it is square.
I walked down the slope and came to the edge of the large square pit at the bottom of the lake.
Chen Qinghan sent me a bunch of information an hour ago. He checked local newspapers and police records. From 21 years ago to today, no bodies were found near the lake.
That's why Chen Qinghan suspected that the body was still in a small hut by the lake, hiding in a basement.
But I just dug it up and the cabin has no basement.
Suppose the burned woman ran out to jump into the lake to put out the fire, she just had to run into the lake and roll in the water by the lake without swimming deeper.
But there are no corpses by the lake...
A woman's body should be "dead", otherwise her will will not be able to leave her body.
Now I can’t confirm something, can she move by herself after she dies?
If not, where did her body go?
If so, where would she remove it?
Chen Qinghan tends to think that her body can be moved by itself.
Because the police did not find her body, the teenagers present that night said that they were scared away when they saw the house on fire.
So, if no one had touched the body, she could only run away and hide.
But I felt there was another possibility that someone lied that night, and not everyone ran away.
Not everyone only saw the 'house' on fire, at least Anna saw the woman on fire.
It is not the same concept that houses are on fire and people are on fire.
Maybe someone knew that they had made a big mistake and hid the body under the guidance of fear.
Since you are hiding the corpse, you must not hide it in shallow places by the lake.
