749 Bureau: The Mystery of the Mummy in the Unfinished Building (Part 1)
After a series of thrilling supernatural cases, Lin Yu and his team finally found a brief respite. Within the 749th Bureau, the atmosphere remained bustling, as members continued to work diligently at their respective posts, preparing for an unforeseen crisis. Lin Yu sat at his desk, surrounded by piles of case files. He intently sorted through the threads of past cases, attempting to uncover the underlying patterns behind these seemingly disjointed clues. The office lights were dim, and under the yellowish glow, Lin Yu's face appeared remarkably resolute, his deep eyes revealing a persistent pursuit of the truth.
At that moment, the director walked into the office with quick but steady steps. His expression, usually serious, was now furrowed. Holding a document, he walked directly to Lin Yu's desk and slammed it down with a thud. "Lin Yu, a new assignment," the director's voice was deep and powerful, carrying an undeniable authority. "A desiccated body was discovered in an unfinished building in a certain city. The situation is extremely strange. The forensic examination concluded that the deceased had been dead for less than 24 hours, yet the body showed the strange state of years of drying. You must lead your team to investigate immediately and make sure to get to the bottom of this."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yu's focused expression suddenly turned serious. He quickly picked up the document and began to read it. His brow furrowed as he read the description, thinking to himself, "For it to have dried to this state in less than 24 hours clearly defies natural laws. This is definitely not an ordinary case. It's likely that supernatural forces are at work. What complex mysteries lie behind this? What challenges will this bring us?" Despite his doubts and concerns, Lin Yu, as a core member of Bureau 749, had long forged a resolute and fearless character through his years of facing various supernatural crises. He knew his mission well, and no matter how many difficulties and obstacles lay ahead, he must forge ahead courageously.
Without hesitation, Lin Yu closed the file and immediately stood up to gather Old Chen, Professor Li, and Xiao Zhao. His steps were quick and powerful, each one amplifying his resolve to investigate the case. Not long after, the three of them were called and hurried to Lin Yu's office. After briefly and clearly explaining the case, Lin Yu's determined gaze swept over the faces of his teammates one by one. "Brothers, this mission sounds like a difficult one. The condition of the body is extremely bizarre. We may be facing a very difficult supernatural case. Everyone, go back and prepare. We'll be leaving immediately."
Old Chen stretched his muscles, his joints making a "crackling" sound, and he muttered, "This sounds strange. Under normal circumstances, 24 It's impossible for a corpse to dry out like that in just a few hours. There must be something sinister at work. Perhaps some sinister organization or mysterious force is behind this. We must be vigilant." Xiao Zhao rubbed his hands together excitedly, his eyes gleaming with eagerness, his young face brimming with fearless courage. "No matter how bizarre it may be, if we work together, we can definitely solve this mystery and get to the bottom of it. I can't wait to confront these supernatural phenomena." Professor Li adjusted his thick glasses, his eyes reflecting a thoughtful and intelligent gaze. He frowned slightly and spoke slowly, "Based on the information we have so far, it's very likely that some special supernatural force was involved, capable of rapidly drying the corpse in such a short period of time. However, we'll have to wait until we arrive at the scene for a detailed analysis. Perhaps there will be some clues there that can help us unravel the mystery behind this."
Everyone quickly returned to their respective positions and gathered their necessary equipment. This equipment would be their most valuable aid in responding to paranormal incidents. Each piece was specially designed and refined, embodying the wisdom and dedication of 749 researchers. Soon, they were all equipped and embarked on the journey to the unfinished building. The atmosphere in the car was somewhat tense as everyone pondered the challenges ahead. Lin Yu gripped the steering wheel tightly, his eyes fixed intently ahead, his mind mulling over the various possibilities of the case. Old Chen closed his eyes, seemingly calm, but in reality, he was reviewing his past experiences in handling paranormal cases. Xiao Zhao watched the scenery rapidly pass by outside the window, his heart filled with anticipation and anxiety for the unknown. Professor Li sat in the back seat, holding a book on paranormal phenomena, searching for clues related to the current case from previous records.
After a lot of running around, they finally arrived at their destination.
An unfinished building stands alone in a desolate vacant lot, surrounded by weeds more than a meter tall. These weeds grow unchecked, swaying in the wind, like a vast ocean of green, yet permeated with a sense of desolation and death. The dilapidated building resembles a vast ruin, exuding a gloomy and eerie atmosphere. The building is riddled with cracks, which, like twisted mouths, seem to tell of the suffering it has endured. The windows are empty, like black eyes, staring coldly at the intruder, as if silently telling the story of what has happened here. The open space in front of the building is littered with discarded construction materials, with broken bricks and rusted steel bars scattered in a mess, as if bearing witness to the gradual collapse of this unfinished building over the years.
Lin Yu looked up at the unfinished building, a strong sense of foreboding welling up in his heart. He turned to look at his teammates and said with a serious expression: "This place feels very wrong, with an indescribable gloom. Everyone, be vigilant. Perhaps danger is hiding in a corner and may appear at any time. We can't be careless in the slightest. Every detail may be related to the direction of the case." Lao Chen nodded, observing the surroundings vigilantly. His eyes were as sharp as a hawk, not missing any corner that might hide danger. "Indeed, this environment is easy to hide things, and the body was found here, which means that this unfinished building must be closely related to the case. We must search carefully. Judging from the surrounding environment, this place is rarely visited. The murderer chose to commit the crime here, perhaps to conceal his tracks, or perhaps this place itself has some special meaning."
