This actor is full of tricks.

It's a bit strange.

Lin Jue ignored the strange looks from the elderly men and women and lowered his head to think.

The female ghost in the video seems to be deliberately choosing her victims.

Logically speaking, if the supernatural being really wanted to kill someone, she should have climbed to the second floor, broken through the window, and started the attack, then proceeded upwards in sequence, instead of climbing directly to a room on the fifth floor. It would seem as if the female supernatural being had already decided who she wanted to kill beforehand.

Generally speaking, there is only one purpose behind what Weiwei does.

For revenge.

Lin Jue thought of the script introduction for the ear.

Kill him, kill him, kill him! Put all those who harmed you in hell!

Based on this, the cat-faced girl in the video should be closely related to this script, meaning that the people the cat-faced girl killed were all people who had harmed her before.

Lin Jue turned on his phone again and sent a message to Xiao Lin, using his access privileges to check if the Investigation Department had investigated the matter.

Xiao Lin replied quickly; the message from this director from Jiangdong Province was always cold and impersonal: "Investigated. What's the purpose?"

Lin Juezhi said he was going to deal with this strange incident.

"I have information, I'll send it right away." Xiao Lin's reply was still very brief.

However, it must be said that although Xiao Lin may not like Lin Jue, he is quite efficient. In less than five minutes, the message was sent via MMS. It was a scanned copy of the investigation report on the incident.

【The Cat-Faced Girl from Qingwangyuan】

[Risk Rating: C]

[Investigators received a report from a resident of Qingwangyuan on October 17 and went to the Qingwangyuan community to investigate. At the scene, they found a male victim covered in scratches left by cat claws, and both ears were mysteriously missing. That night, the strangulation team guarded Qingwangyuan but found no trace of the cat-faced girl.]

On the evening of the 18th, security guards from Qingwangyuan residential area received another call for help. The strangulation team rushed to the scene. The deceased was a male resident of apartment 503 in building 2. His death was similar to that of the previous victim. No trace of the cat-faced girl was found.

On the 19th, the strangulation team visited nearby residents and searched for the cat-faced girl, but to no avail.

[20th. Unsuccessful.]

[On the 21st, residents reported that the cat meowing at night had disappeared.]

[The cat-faced girl has not reappeared since the 22nd, and the case is closed.]

The report ended with several photos of the deceased, naked, covered in dense scratches, and missing ears.

Is the case being closed so hastily?
"It seems like the New Zealand Inspection Department isn't very efficient. They've only come up with this little bit of information after a few days of investigation."

Lin Jue turned off his phone. Most investigators don't delve into strange events. For example, in this case, the Xinzhou Inspection Division didn't even consider starting their investigation with the missing ears, or why the girl with the full face didn't commit a large-scale massacre, but only killed two people.

Perhaps it's not that they haven't thought about it, but rather that even if they have, they're unwilling to investigate. After all, no one wants to walk on the edge of life and death every day. Although the job of an investigator is high-status and has good benefits, one could lose their life at any time, and many investigators are just coasting along.

Not all investigators are like Chen Fu and his colleagues.

"Fine, less information is fine too. It gives me more room to maneuver." Just then, the bus pulled into the station, and Lin Jue, carrying his bag, squeezed on with a group of elderly men and women.

As he got into the car, Lin Jue glanced at the driver's seat. The driver was a middle-aged man who looked very honest, with a wobbly ornament hanging on the rearview mirror.

And the shape of this pendant is exactly the same as that circular symbol.

The moment Lin Jue saw the pendant, he became alert and stared intently at the driver's face.

Is it someone from a cult, or is this symbol a gift from someone else, like Ya Ya's father?

Noticing Lin Jue's gaze, the driver glanced at him and impatiently waved his hand behind him: "Please move to the inside of the bus, find your seat, and don't block the way."

This guy looked like an ordinary driver, with nothing unusual about him. He was probably in a similar situation to Ya Ya's father, unaware of the meaning of the symbol.

Lin Jue took a deep look at the pendant, then took his ticket and walked to his seat.

Three minutes later, the car slowly drove out of the station and headed out of Quming County.

It takes three hours to drive from Quming to Xinzhou. After browsing the forum for a while and looking at the strange events that have happened across the country recently, Lin Jue closed his eyes and pretended to doze off.

Lin Jue didn't know how much time had passed, but he felt like he was about to fall asleep from the shaking of the car. Suddenly, he felt a chill on his arm and got goosebumps. It felt like cold hands were stroking his skin. He also heard other people screaming.

Something is wrong!
He suddenly opened his eyes. The passengers on the bus were in complete chaos, staring in terror out the window. The view outside was now obscured by a thick fog.

It's getting foggy!
Lin Jue didn't expect that fog would suddenly roll in at this moment. Driving in fog is a very dangerous thing, and there is a high possibility that the vehicle will be targeted by something strange.

The elderly people in the carriage were in complete panic. The train was on the highway, far from any village or shop, with nowhere to hide.

The fog obscured visibility to less than twenty meters, but the driver seemed oblivious to the fog and continued speeding along the highway.

A passenger noticed something was wrong and shouted, "Driver, stop! Stop!"

Driving at such a high speed in this visibility condition, you'd probably roll off the highway before you even encountered anything strange.

"Don't panic, everyone. I happen to know there's a tunnel ahead. It's better to hide in there than to be exposed. We're going this fast now, so even if the monster hears the noise, it won't be able to catch up," the driver shouted.

At first glance, there seemed to be nothing wrong with what he said, but Lin Jue felt something was off. If he felt something was strange and couldn't catch up with the car, then why did he run into the tunnel and stop? Wasn't that a contradiction?

And are you so sure there won't be anything strange in the tunnel?

It felt like the car was being used to take passengers to a specific destination.

The elderly men and women on the bus thought it made sense, and they all turned pale and huddled in their seats, not daring to move.

"Pull up all the curtains and don't make a sound, we're almost at the tunnel!" The driver's voice sounded tense, yet also contained a hint of barely perceptible joy.

It's like a fox that catches a bunch of chicks and returns home with a full load.

Lin Jue remained seated, unperturbed, eager to see what tricks the driver was up to. (End of Chapter)
