On a rainy night, thunder rumbled, and lightning pierced the sky. In such weather, even the cats hid in warm nests and were reluctant to come out. But Li Haoran, the young detective, put on a raincoat and stepped into an ancient manor located in the suburbs.
This bad weather is even worse than the plot in Detective**. He muttered, shaking the rain off his body.
The gates of the manor slowly opened, and a cold wind greeted them. Li Haoran couldn't help but shudder, and thought to himself: "This place, no matter how you look at it, it looks like an excellent place for ghost stories to happen." ”
No sooner had he entered the hall than he heard a strange sound coming from the stairs. Crunch, as if someone was walking around on it. Li Haoran touched the pistol in his pocket, took a deep breath, and cautiously walked up the stairs.
Hey, anyone? He shouted loudly, trying to break the eerie silence.
Suddenly, a figure flashed out from around the corner, so frightened that Li Haoran almost didn't pull out his pistol. The man was dressed in a black robe and had a pair of large glasses on his face, and looked like a zombie who had just crawled out of a grave.
You ......Who are you? Li Haoran stammered and asked.
The man took off his glasses, revealing a pair of sly eyes. "I am the owner of the estate, welcome to my turf. He smiled and stretched out his hand and shook hands with Li Haoran.
Li Haoran thought to himself: "This master seems to be quite kind, but how can this manor always give me a gloomy feeling." ”
You're here to investigate the missing woman, right? The owner of the manor seemed to see Li Haoran's thoughts.
Li Haoran nodded and said, "Yes, I hope you can provide some clues." ”
The owner of the manor smiled and said, "Well, I do have a clue." However, you have to try my specialty tea first, otherwise how can you have enough energy to investigate? ”
With that, he turned and walked over to a large wooden coffee table and began to get busy. Li Haoran sighed helplessly, thinking: "It seems that this investigation is destined not to go so smoothly." ”
The tea came up quickly, steaming hot, Li Haoran picked up the teacup, blew it gently, and then drank it all.
Wow, this tea ......He was just about to say something, when he suddenly felt that his whole body became confused, and his eyes began to blur.
It's ......What's going on? "He struggled to get up, but his body was completely out of control.
The owner of the manor looked at him with a strange smile on his face. This is my special tea with a little bit of ...... in itCalming ingredients. You can rest here in peace, and I will take care of you. ”
After speaking, he turned around and left the room, leaving Li Haoran alone on the bed, groggy for a long night.
The next morning, when Li Haoran woke up, he found that he had been tied to a chair. He looked around and found himself in a gloomy basement, surrounded by all sorts of strange instruments and jars.
Looks like I've really stepped on shit this time. He sighed helplessly and began to think about how to get out.
Just then, the basement door suddenly opened, and a mysterious figure walked in. He was dressed in black, with a mask on his face, revealing only a pair of piercing eyes.
You're the detective investigating the missing woman? The mysterious figure asked.
Li Haoran nodded and said, "Yes, who are you?" ”
The mysterious figure smiled and said, "It doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that I know the whereabouts of the missing woman." ”
Li Haoran suddenly perked up and said, "Do you know? Tell me! ”
The mysterious figure did not answer directly, but walked up to a device and began to operate it. A blurry image appeared on the screen, which appeared to be the missing woman.
Look, this is what she looks like now. Said the mysterious figure.
Li Haoran's eyes widened and he looked carefully at the images on the screen. He found the woman locked in a dimly lit room, looking very weak.
She's in **? How can I save her? Li Haoran asked eagerly.
The mysterious figure shook his head and said, "You can't save her yet, because someone is spying on you." You'll need to find clues hidden in the manor before you can find her exact location. ”
After speaking, he turned around and left the basement, leaving Li Haoran alone there to meditate.
It seems that this investigation is really an uphill battle. He sighed and began to look around for clues.
