Nightmare Attack

Chapter 1197

Chapter 1197

Even though everyone is an experienced old man, they were still touched by Lin Qianqian's words. The number of heads matches the coffin. Obviously, the coffin can only contain corpses, and the hole was dug from the inside of the coffin...

Combining these scattered clues, a bold and terrifying guess emerges.

At this moment, Li Bai told a more terrifying news, pushing the weird atmosphere to a climax, "On the night when the head was washed out, there was a rare rainstorm in Fengtou Village. In the sound of the torrential rain, some of them could vaguely hear the sound of horseshoes, and... there was also the sound of crisp iron beating."

"The sound came from the end of the village." After a pause, Li Bai added in a deep voice.

The sound of horseshoes, the sound of iron knocking... Similar narratives immediately reminded everyone of Mrs. Su's words in Su's house. Song Keli, who was hiding under the alias Master Su, was disturbed by the mysterious sound of horseshoes and was in a state of panic all day long.

Jiang Cheng recalled the attitude of the shopkeeper of Baomozhai, and felt more and more that the painting in his arms had a lot to say, which reminded him of the news about "Ghost Horse Picture" published in the newspaper.

He Tianhe also said bluntly that the painting in his arms, like the other paintings in the study, was copied by the artist.

But since it is a copy, there must be an original painting, and this original painting is most likely "Ghost Horse Picture"!

If this was the case, Jiang Cheng suddenly became vigilant, and the shopkeeper of Baomozhai was willing to let them go. It might not be because he had a long-term plan to catch big fish. Maybe right now, they have been targeted.

The three groups shared the information they had collected, and then, everyone subconsciously looked at Luo Tianhe and the other three. This last group was responsible for investigating the source of the news in the newspaper.

"We found the newspaper that published this newspaper, but the people at the newspaper didn't know about it." Luo Tianhe took out the newspaper, his voice revealed a subtle feeling between doubt and relief.

But obviously, everyone didn't buy it. He Ping sullenly asked first: "I don't understand what Mr. Luo said. Now that I have found this newspaper and confirmed that this newspaper is published by this newspaper Yes, how could the latter not know?"

"They really don't know about it." Another slightly old voice sounded, and Yuan Shanyuan explained, "It's true that this newspaper was sorted and published by them, but the content on it is not entirely from their hands."

"Mr. Luo and I have read their first draft and the final draft. There is no story of "Ghost Horse Map" on it, let alone the report on the case of the charred corpse in the Roman Hotel."

"The section of these two reports originally belonged to two completely different pieces of news. One was about Citi Steamship's steady crossing of the Pacific Ocean, and the other was about the commercial advertisement of Suji Baifeng Pills. The cases under investigation are not connected."

Yuan Shanyuan gave people a very reassuring feeling in terms of wording and tone. It seemed that no matter how dangerous and weird things were, as long as they came to him, they would be properly resolved.

Bai Yu raised his hand, and gently held Yuan Shanyuan's arm with pale and slender fingers. This porcelain doll-like girl seemed to be very dependent on her grandfather, but Yuan Shanyuan lowered her head lovingly, rubbing the back of Bai Yu's hand with her generous palm , as if in comfort, giving the other party the strength to persevere.

Seeing this scene, Jiangcheng suddenly had a strange feeling, which made him very uncomfortable. It seemed... the relationship between the grandparents and grandchildren had already surpassed some kind of family-based boundary. At least in Jiangcheng's subconscious mind, he thought that They acted more like a couple.

Luo Tianhe took over the words just right, and continued: "The newspaper office couldn't figure out what was going on, and they were also very distressed. When we went, we happened to bump into a few blond foreigners throwing a fit. It was amazing, and we later found out that these people were from Citigroup, and they angrily accused the newspaper of breaking the contract, because they did not publish the content they needed on time, which caused the company to suffer losses, so they came to ask for an explanation."

"After these people left, we saw the person in charge of the newspaper office. The person in charge was injured and his office was smashed. When we asked, the person in charge was also aggrieved and complained to us that these blondes Westerners are easy to deal with, they just ask for money when they come to the door, and they can be sent away if they give the money, but those Orientals are the worst."

"Those Orientals didn't know what the wind was. They took the newspaper and knocked on the door. When they came up, they smashed the office, grabbed him, beat him, and warned him before leaving. If he talked nonsense in the newspaper, his head would be chopped off, put in a broken coffin, buried outside the city, and no one would find him for the rest of his life.”

Lin Qianqian's eyes lit up, obviously thinking of something, she opened her mouth to speak, but was stopped by He Tianhe's eyes, "I know what you want to ask, you are right, these Orientals... are just for the second story Here it comes, "Ghost Horse Map"."

Yao, Shunyu also restrained his usual arrogance, touched his chin, and showed a thoughtful expression, "Cut off the head, put it in a broken coffin, and bury it outside the city..."

"Isn't this how those seven people died?" the fat man couldn't help but say.

"Through the various clues now, I think one thing can be confirmed. The corpses outside the city were killed by the Orientals, and their purpose is related to the "Ghost Horse Picture"." Integrating the news that everyone got, Ding Zhenzong believes that his statement is tenable.

"Also, Song Keli heard the sound of horseshoes, and the villagers also heard it, which means that the deaths of those outside the city are inseparably related to Song Keli, and this is exactly what he fears." He Ping added later.

"Traitors, friends for glory!" Lin Qianqian seemed to have grasped the point, raised her head, and said in an excited tone, "Do you mean the corpses outside the city by the so-called selling friends and seeking glory? Those people knew Song Keli, It was because of his betrayal that the Orientals killed him."

"Very likely." Ding Zhenzong said with a muffled voice.

As the clues were supplemented bit by bit, the context in everyone's minds gradually became clear, but Jiang Cheng understood that the sources of information were complicated, and a large part of the so-called speculation was based on sufficiently reliable sources of information, which could only provide them with a rough idea. train of thought.

But even just thinking is enough. This is the first day of the official mission. Before encountering the ghost, they have already obtained so much information, which was unimaginable before.

The teammates in front of him, in terms of strength alone, were comparable to the teammates in the Dahe Empress mission, and even a few of them gave Jiangcheng a sense of danger.
