Wen Xi tilted her head and looked at him carefully. "You are new to the Special Management Bureau, right? No wonder you don't know me and are talking nonsense here."
When he heard the word "Special Management Bureau", his face changed and he looked at her in surprise, as if he didn't expect that she could know so easily that he was sent by the Special Management Bureau.
"you…"
He wanted to ask a few more questions when someone came up from behind.
"Xiao Zhao, what's going on?"
The tall and strong Tie Ruonan walked over, passed Xiao Zhao, and saw Wen Xi. His eyes lit up and he greeted her enthusiastically, "Oh, who did I think it was? It turns out to be Sister Wen Xi. Why are you here?"
"Wen Xi?"
Xiao Zhao murmured the name and then turned pale with shock. He had heard of the name Wen Xi long before he joined the Special Management Bureau. Everyone in the Special Management Bureau, whether new or old, knew her name. They knew that she was a young but not underestimated Xuan Ling Master. They also knew that Wen Xi had helped the Special Management Bureau solve many cases.
He swallowed and his face looked a little ugly. Obviously, he didn't expect that he would be blind to this extent.
"Yes, yes, Xiao Zhao, didn't you always say that you wanted to meet Wen Xi? What a coincidence! I brought you here today, and it really is the right time. Isn't this how we meet?"
Tie Ruonan laughed heartily, patted his shoulder and said, "Don't be fooled by her young and beautiful appearance, she is very capable."
Xiao Zhao's face flushed, his eyes shifting in panic as he said sheepishly, "I'm so sorry, I didn't know it was you. I'm just too inexperienced and need more experience."
Seeing Xiao Zhao's sincere apology, Wen Xi naturally didn't bother him and casually waved his hand and said, "It's okay, these are just trivial matters."
He then looked at Tie Ruonan and asked, "Captain Tie, what happened in there? Have you found out what the hell it is?"
Tie Ruonan said with a serious expression, "We received a distress call earlier. Although it was intermittent, we could still hear the voices crying for help. We sent people to check it out, and found that there was a ghost aura in this cinema. So I had them evacuate the audience and staff inside, and ruled out other theaters. The final target was Theater 4. The doors inside were all sealed, and it would be difficult to force them open. I have already asked the team to look for special weapons."
Wen Xi said, "I want to go in and take a look too. To be honest, my classmate is in there."
Tie Ruonan was surprised and asked, "What? Is it such a coincidence? The person imprisoned is your classmate?"
Wen Xi said, "Well, I just received a call for help with a lot of noise, so I rushed here."
Tie Ruonan clapped his hands and said, "That's great. With you here, we can get twice the result with half the effort. We don't even need to wait for weapons. Let's go in and take a look at the situation?"
Wen Xi nodded, "Yeah, okay."
Knowing Wen Xi's voice, Xiao Zhao and the others naturally would not stop her anymore and stepped aside to let them in.
This is a specially built retro-style cinema. As soon as you walk in, you will feel as if you have returned to a cinema in the last century.
People from the Special Management Bureau were wandering around inside and had almost cleared out the place.
They came to the legendary Theater No. 4. Xin Zhui was talking to the person in charge of the cinema. The person in charge had fine beads of cold sweat on his forehead. While answering Xin Zhui's questions, he glanced at the door of Theater No. 4 with panic in his eyes, fearing that the door would suddenly open and a ghost would come out and drag him in.
Tie Ruonan stepped forward and asked, "Xin Zhui, how's the question going?"
"They don't know anything. There haven't been any special murders in the cinema before, and this isn't a new building. They're all wondering why something like this could happen all of a sudden."
Xin Zhui answered a few words, then smiled and raised his hand to greet Wen Xi when he saw her. "Sister Wen Xi, what brings you here? You got the news so quickly, are you coming to help us?"
Wen Xi smiled and said, "No, unfortunately, the people imprisoned in there are my classmates. I came here to look for them."
Xin Zhui scratched his head. "Ah? That's not good. There are students inside. No one knows what's going on. We can't even tell what a ghost looks like."
Wen Xi pursed her lips and counted on her fingers, then looked at the cinema manager with sharp eyes, "Since your cinema has been open for so many years and has never been haunted, you can ask the person who manages the film if there is anything wrong with the film in his hands?"
"ah?"
The person in charge of the cinema wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, looked at Wen Xi a little confused, and glanced at Tie Ruonan and the others cautiously, as if he was thinking about whether to listen to her.
Xin Zhui tutted, "Why don't you go find someone quickly? What Sister Wen Xi says is definitely right. We should listen to her."
“Okay, okay!”
The cinema manager quickly called the film manager over. After a careful recollection, the manager slapped his forehead and said, "Yes, I suddenly remembered. When I was sorting the films today and wanted to show them, I found an extra roll of film. It was pitch black. I thought it was a damaged sample, so I just threw it in the screening room."
Wen Xi asked, "Where did you throw the film?"
The manager swallowed his saliva, pointed at Hall 4 with a panicked look, and stammered, "If I remember correctly, it was...it was placed in the projection room of Hall 4."
Everyone's heart skipped a beat!
Xin Zhui said in disbelief, "So, Sister Wen Xi, you're saying that the extra film reel caused the trouble?"
Wen Xi's eyes flickered as he looked towards the gate. "That's very possible. Evil spirits can possess many things, not just human bodies. Haven't you heard of painted walls? There are also ghosts hiding in paintings."
Xin Zhui suddenly realized, "Yes, there is also the one in the mirror..."
"Take away the outsiders. I want to go into Hall 4."
Wen Xi said, "I'm afraid if I go in too late, something might happen to them."
Tie Ruonan said, "Xin Zhui and I will go in with you, but the gate seems to be welded shut. How are we going to get in?"
Wen Xi walked to the door and raised his hand to knock on it.
Boom boom boom!
A dull voice sounded, and then Tie Ruonan, Xin Zhui and others were shocked.
Crunch!
The door of Hall No. 4 opened automatically, and a stream of cold air rushed out, making people feel like they were falling into a cold cellar.
Xin Zhui was dumbfounded and asked, "What's going on? Can the door be opened just by knocking?"
Tie Ruonan said with a heartache, "It's so simple? We thought it was too complicated, but we never expected that the simpler the better."
Wen Xi stood at the door and looked back at them. "Be polite. Polite people will naturally be rewarded! And... do you want to come in?"
