Loosening the rope on the bag, the middle-aged man emptied everything on the lobby floor like a wholesale goods.

In an instant, the alien statue with a laurel crown on its head came into view. It was a piece of ivory with excellent color, which was given a shape by the extraordinary craftsmanship.

In addition, there is an extremely strange bas-relief. It is not an antique, let alone the technique and style of any sculptural school. On the 15-centimeter-square clay sculpture, an obnoxious crouching monster can be clearly seen, or Some kind of pagan totem...

Before he could look carefully, there was a sudden noise from the door of another bedroom.

Wang Li instinctively glanced at it. The place where he entered was a child about twelve or thirteen years old, lying on the door frame with only his head looking out.

Unlike ordinary children, the weird, deep-set folds on both sides of his neck make it easy for people to overestimate his age.

His head is very narrow, and his bulging, gray, dim eyes never seem to blink.

His nose is flat, his forehead and chin are contracted back, and he has a pair of ears that don't seem to be fully developed.

Around the thick long lips on his face, and on his cheeks with large pores and light gray color, there are only small pieces of sparse yellow hair that are irregularly scattered and curled.

In some places, the face seems to be irregular and weird, as if the epidermis has peeled off due to certain skin diseases.

Seeing the child appear, the middle-aged man looked ugly, and snarled, "Give me in, don't come out!"

The child didn't say anything, and withdrew his head blankly and gloomily.

After such an interruption, the middle-aged man became irritable, and said hard, "Well, I won't sell these things anymore. Go away."

Wang Li didn't care, maybe the family ugliness was found to be in a bad mood.

The child suddenly looked like he was suffering from a deformity. It is no wonder that he needs to sell things to make money and live in such a humble life. The people in the town stared at him with inexplicable eyes.

Finding the "reason" for the man's irritability in his heart, Wang Li can understand a little bit.

No longer entangled with the middle-aged man, he paid the bill, took the box with the golden crown, turned around and left this simple and fishy bungalow without a word.

It's a pity that I didn't buy the other things. When I got back to the town center and got on the taxi co-pilot, Wang Li regretted it in his heart.

The driver's brother was eager to watch the video. Seeing that he came back, he refreshed, put down his phone and asked, "Shall we go back now?"

"Well, it's troublesome."

He glanced at the empty-handed car, and when he came back, he brought a customer with a black cloth box. The driver didn't care, and the car turned on the ignition to turn around, and drove in the direction when going back and forth.

…………

Just an hour after the two left this strange town, several cars also drove from that road to this town.

"Is it this way?" Sitting in the driver's seat of the first Jeep, Xiao Ruobing asked the team members in the back seat.

Zhang Lan took out a record book and looked through it for a while and confirmed: "Yes, Captain, the information on the disappeared village shows that there is a connection with this side."

"Very well, we must find clues this time! There are also people hiding behind!" Xiao Ruobing's eyes were firm, and he drove the Jeep into the town.

Seven or eight vehicles in a row attracted the attention of the people in the town. The town is very closed. Except for trucks to purchase goods at certain times every day, there is basically no circulation.

Like Wang Li, everyone came to the center of the town, stopped their cars and all stopped.

The difference is that Xiao Ruobing came with a task to find a family surnamed Zhao, and the disappearance of the village has an important relationship with him.

In her capacity, naturally, there is no need to go to the police station in the town without looking for them one by one.

Leaving most of the people in place, Xiao Ruobing led five or six people to set off.

Along the way, she found many people hiding at home, so the town seemed quite deserted.

Even if he occasionally peeked out a few lines of sight from the window, he quickly retracted.

Frowning, she has a bad feeling.

The villages that disappeared seemed to have experienced similar situations. First they turned from lively to prosperous, but then gradually became deserted, and finally the whole village was nowhere to be seen.

Fortunately, in the process of searching for the truth, officials discovered the root cause of such a situation, the murlocs wandering in the sea according to rumors.

When the mystery was involved, the case was handed over to the foundation for processing.

"The fishy smell is so heavy!" Walking on the road, Zhang Lan whispered.

Zhang Wei grinned: "After all, it's a place near the sea."

The town is not big, so Xiao Ruobing and his party arrived at the branch police station soon.

After showing the documents and coming here to have a mission, the police officers were not enthusiastic, and even somewhat resisted.

When Zhang Lan asked for the information of everyone in the town, they tuned out the information perfunctorily.

This attitude was obviously wrong, Xiao Ruobing resisted not saying anything, according to the system they belonged to, they were not under the control of a group.

While waiting for Zhang Lan to look through the account information, she chatted with a person in charge here and asked if there had been any accidents or strangers here recently.

As a matter of course, there was no useful information. More than that, this person also pretended to think hard, and it was too suspicious to mention all the ambiguities about the energy used to involve her.

Confirming that he could not get useful information, Xiao Ruobing immediately gave up asking and fell into thought.

It seems that the situation is not so good, but the village is at least still there, which means it is not too late.

"After checking, the team leader, there are four households surnamed Zhao, who live in each of them..." After reviewing the information, Zhang Lan approached her ear and whispered.

Xiao Ruobing responded, no longer staying, glanced at the person in charge with thin cheeks, his eyes narrowed slightly: "Then, excuse me."

The person in charge gave a stiff smile: "Welcome to have any problems at any time, and we will do our best to help."

"No, I believe we can solve it."

Even though he didn't even bother to stay polite, Xiao Ruobing was 100% sure that the police officer had questions.

Maybe, there is a problem with the materials shown to them.

When I first arrived, I felt a gray nose, which made the group feel less optimistic, but also cast a shadow.

After that, the intuition verified everyone's thoughts, and none of the four households surnamed Zhao met the description in the target.

At dusk, everyone returned to the center of the town, but the first day was unfavorable.

"Captain, what shall we do next?"

"Let the magic capital continue to transfer people, every family, find me every inch!"

Since it is confirmed that there is a problem here, why does she have to solve it alone without asking for help?
