Chapter 93 Mysterious Phone Ringing
"We might find some clues along the way. Besides, no one else is using a helicopter, so why should our branch use one? Don't be so hypocritical."
Having said that, he walked straight up without caring about the lives of the two girls. The two girls continued with their heads down and sad faces, stood up on their knees, and followed him resignedly.
I have to say that this dirt road is indeed very difficult to walk on.
The old site of the hospital is right in the middle of the hillside, and it is indeed far away from the parking spot.
When Gu Hansheng looked through the telescope, he estimated that it was about 8km away.
It was indeed not a very close distance. Gu Hansheng looked at Shi Yi, who had just recovered from a serious illness, and looked a little nervous.
"How are you? Are you okay?"
I was a little confused at the time.
"I'm fine, nothing's wrong."
Although Shi Yi was hit by a bullet, Shi Yi's original physique was indeed very good, especially after completing the task with the system, he didn't even catch a cold.
At this time, walking a mere 8km was no problem for her.
Tang Yu took out a small compass from his backpack, stood aside and began to survey, when suddenly his brows furrowed.
Gu Hansheng looked at him.
"What did you see?"
Several people immediately gathered around to watch, and Tang Yu said in a deep voice.
"There are only desolate mountains and wilderness around here. I'm isolated and helpless. Isn't this feng shui really bad?"
As he spoke, a few insects flew in front of Tang Yu, and he couldn't help but fan them.
"This place has such a natural environment, with so many insects gathering here. If the hospital were located in this location..."
As he spoke, Tang Yu had some doubts.
"The old hospital site has been abandoned for several years. That only happened in this century, but the surrounding wilderness didn't form overnight. Who would come here for medical treatment? Transportation is also inconvenient."
Mi Chen was so hot that he opened his clothes and fanned himself.
"You don't know this, do you? This Maria Hospital only accepts rich people, and don't rich people have helicopters? Of course they went up by helicopter, so inconvenient transportation is not the problem. What's more, although this place is surrounded by wilderness and is inexplicably desolate, it is the perfect place for recuperation."
Tang Yu frowned and stuffed the compass into his backpack.
"Let's go, go up first."
Fortunately, several people were well prepared and knew that the address this time was on a hillside.
Before coming here, they all bought trekking sticks. Now they are standing aside, opening the trekking sticks together, and they really look like hikers.
When the people from the Southwest Branch saw these hiking sticks, they couldn't help but look envious.
They finally reached the entrance of Maria Hospital before sunset.
At this moment, layers of cordons were set up near the entrance of Maria Hospital.
Many people from the police station were already questioning the surrounding police officers, holding notes in their hands, and seemed to be recording something.
Shi Yi and his companions put away their hiking sticks, stepped forward, and began to listen.
"...Yes, we have been lying in ambush nearby for a week. We have deployed many of our personnel inside and outside, but we still haven't found out how this person died, how he came here, or how he left."
Speaking of this, the policeman in front was also very puzzled.
They all knew that due to the difficulty of this case, it was directly included as a case for the Supernatural Competition. They had to unconditionally cooperate with all the contestants to solve the case as soon as possible.
A young policeman looked at them from one side, seeming to be hesitant to speak.
When Shi Yi saw this situation, he couldn't help but step forward.
"What's wrong with you? Are you scared?"
The policeman looked very young, like an intern.
"Don't be afraid, just say whatever you want to say."
Gu Hansheng stood aside, blocking everyone's sight.
The young policeman looked at the few people and sighed.
"Four days ago, the day the second murder occurred, I was on duty at night. I had to pee urgently in the middle of the night, so I got up to go to the bathroom. And then... I heard a phone ringing inside the hospital!"
Phone ringing?
Several people frowned suddenly, and the young policeman nodded quickly, his face pale with fear.
"Yes, I'm sure that was the sound of a phone ringing, but it sounded like a landline phone, not a mobile phone. After ringing a few times, it suddenly hung up... No, no!"
The young policeman frowned.
"You can't say it was hung up, after all, this hospital is so big, there's no guarantee whether it was hung up... or answered..."
As he spoke, the young policeman paused and goose bumps covered his body.
Shi Yi and the others looked at each other.
"Is there no one around here?"
The young policeman shook his head.
"No, but there was a village to the east of this place 20 years ago. It was quite far from the hospital, about two kilometers on foot. I don't know why, but everyone in the village moved away, so it's now deserted. I heard it's been requisitioned and will be transformed into a high-speed rail station or something."
Shi Yi and the others exchanged glances. How could the murderer have done this in such a big hospital with no one around?
Unless... it's not human
Lu family, in a luxurious conference room.
The table was filled with fruits and various snacks. Several elderly-looking men were sitting around, discussing something from time to time.
Several gray-haired old men sat around a long table and chairs, with a clear high-definition display in front of them.
The display screen is divided into several sections, which clearly show the performance of the members of these branches at Maria Hospital.
"Mr. Zhang, you're still very fashionable! You knew to use drones to survey the situation of these little brats this year."
In previous years, they had used a few people with clairvoyance to follow everyone around at all times and conduct surveys of distant locations.
This year, they used high-tech drones, which saved manpower and solved many problems.
Mr. Zhang stroked his beard and smiled.
"Thank you so much! If my granddaughter hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have known there were such high-tech things. This year's case is no simpler than last year's. It all depends on these little guys. Who can get the more crucial evidence? Right, Old Wang?"
As he said this, he looked at Wang Zhiyuan standing beside him. Wang Zhiyuan was slightly younger than these people.
The man with still dark blue hair and stubble was not on the same level as them.
However, since Wang Zhiyuan is the highest leader of the 857th Branch, he should follow the judges and watch the performance of each member in the conference room.
Wang Zhiyuan drank the tea beside him in a neither humble nor arrogant manner and laughed.
"Our 857th Bureau has two new members joining this year. They're both still rookies and very green, not as good as the other bureaus."
