No wonder the order in Tianhe Security's territory has become so chaotic recently, and Silver Hair's business has opened up.

No wonder the captain named Xu Kun is so fierce and cruel, and is at a loss to deal with the threat of Master Qun.

No wonder Tianhe Security, such a powerful force, still needs to recruit people from the bottom at a high price to cooperate with that operation...

Xu Kun's words actually explain the reasons for many unreasonable problems.

Lu Xin glanced at Han Bing and saw that the little girl was thoughtful, and she must have discovered the problem.

Master Qun didn't know whether to believe it or not at this time, and had already begun to interrogate Xu Kun quietly from several other angles, seemingly to verify whether he had lied. However, Lu Xin and Han Bing already understood that the person named Xu Kun should not have lied about this matter.

They all have their own methods of identification.

Han Bing is based on some interrogation experience and reasoning, while Lu Xin can determine the authenticity of something through intuition.

While Master Qun continued to ask, Lu Xin winked at Han Bing.

The two of them came to the window, far away from everyone, Lu Xin opened the window to let in the wind, and then lit a cigarette.

Originally, he didn't plan to smoke in front of Han Bing, but Master Qun hadn't taken the cigar off his lips since he entered the room. In this case, it was useless to control it, so he simply lit one and slowly sorted out his thoughts.

"The mission half a month ago caused Sun Heizi and many people like him to suffer from severe insomnia problems. In the end, they went crazy and died. But also after that mission, Tianhe Security's senior officials who knew the inside story entered Building Number Nine's meeting and never came out again. Therefore, Tianhe Security was leaderless, and things gradually began to become chaotic..."

Han Bing said as he sorted things out, "In addition, we can be sure that many of the employees below Tianhe Security, and even their family members, must have suffered from insomnia at that time, so they suddenly became very interested in Black Grass."

Lu Xin nodded slightly, these are all obvious, Han Bing can think of it and it is not surprising.

After all, I thought of it myself.

"However, apart from these, there are still several doubts..."

Han Bing thought about it slowly and then said, "For example, what kind of task was Tianhe Security doing at that time?"

"For example, Xu Kun said that the superiors asked him to recruit a group of people whose lives are not valuable. What tasks would use people whose lives are not valuable?"

"For another example, how come these people whose lives are worthless come back safe and sound?"

"And most importantly..."

She paused slightly and said softly, "The senior management entered Building Number Nine for a meeting and never came out again..."

"Are they hiding from some disaster inside, or are they already... dead?"

"..."

Lu Xin couldn't help but glance at Han Bing. The little girl considered the problem very carefully.

I have never thought about these issues so deeply.

"At least a few doubtful points can be determined now."

Han Bing lightly snapped his fingers and said, "In terms of time, Xu Kun also participated in that mission with those people. In other words, he may also be one of the first people to come into contact with the insomnia-inducing Pollution Source. However, those people's condition has been extremely serious. Even if they are not dead, their mental state has completely collapsed, but this Xu Kun seems to be normal."

"It's very possible that he used some method to delay his insomnia."

"In addition, he is Tianhe Security a man with a family, but according to Master Qun's men, he has been wandering outside for a long time and has never returned home. When Master Qun mentions his family, he is particularly concerned about it, and he doesn't seem to be heartless."

"Does this also mean that he actually doesn't dare to see his family now?"

"Then the reason why I don't dare to see my family is..."

Han Bing's eyes brightened slightly. "... He is worried that some of his conditions will be transmitted to his family?"

"..."

Lu Xin heard this, his expression was a little dazed, and it took him a while to react, as if I had already thought of it.

This little girl is amazing, she actually thinks so deeply?

After the two finalized these issues, they discussed in a low voice for a few more words and walked back.

At this time, Master Qun had finalized Xu Kun's words from several angles, and was frowning, as if considering how to deal with him.

Xu Kun was languid on the ground, occasionally peeking at them.

Han Bing quietly told Master Qun the two questions he had figured out.

After Master Qun heard this, he immediately became furious. He swung his crutch and slapped Xu Kun on the face, and cursed angrily:

"You're not telling the damn truth!"

"When you took people out for action, the superiors just asked you to find people? Didn't they ask you to make any preparations?"

"After you came back, you just handed out money and nothing happened? Don't you think something is different after you come back?"

"..."

Xu Kun's forehead, which was directly slapped by Master Qun, was covered in blood, and he suddenly screamed miserably.

He was originally a strictly trained private security guard with a very strong psychological quality, otherwise he would not have been able to deal with Master Qun for so long. However, as soon as he suffered from insomnia for a long time, his mental state had already gone wrong, and his will was breaking down.

Secondly, he also knew that the Master Qun in front of him was indeed a master who killed the whole family just as he said, and he really couldn't be tough.

Seeing that the other party asked about the most critical point, he was shocked and frightened, and wailed loudly:

"Master Qun, no, no, I won't say..."

"The main reason is that you didn't ask about these places just now..."

"Before we went out to do that mission, the superiors did make some preparations for us. They gave us some new weapons, and... they also asked us to wear some strange clothes, which looked like protective clothing, with a glass helmet on top..."

"What was strange at that time was that nothing happened that night..."

"But when I came back the next day, I found that my glass helmet actually had some cracks."

"It's like it was hit by something. However, that kind of tempered glass is very strong. When the bullet hits it, there is only a small white dot. This thing was put on my head and it cracked silently..."

"I... I thought I saw a ghost!"

"..."

The more he spoke, the paler his face became, as if he remembered something frightening. "Also, after I came back, I didn't know if I was frightened, and my sleep began to be bad. Whenever I was about to fall asleep, I could always hear some noises..."

When he said this, his body seemed to have some unnatural spasms, and he looked extremely frightened.

"Strange... very strange..."

"That's, that's a sound like scales are rubbing..."

"It's very slight, but very clear. As soon as I close my eyes, I... I hear this sound..."

"..."

The surroundings had become extremely quiet at some point.

Everyone present listened to him quietly, feeling inexplicably uncomfortable all over, with a faint chill on their backs.

Especially those under Master Qun, their expressions were somewhat confused.

Some people even murmured to themselves, "It's strange, I seem to have heard it before..."

Lu Xin keenly caught this muttering and thought to himself, "Could this be a common characteristic of insomniacs?"

"It's such a terrible sound, it almost makes people go crazy..."

"If it's just occasionally..."

Xu Kun seemed to be in a trance and said feebly, "But I can always hear it. I don't dare to sleep, but fortunately, during that time, I was in better spirits and could really stay up for several days. However, what I didn't expect was that at first, only I could hear this sound. Later... then my wife and children heard it..."

"I... I was scared, worried that they would be like me, so I ran away from home..."

"I, I have been waiting for an explanation from the people above, but they, they are still in that building until now..."

"..."

There is no need to verify these words. Everyone can see that what Xu Kun said is true.

If you tell lies, you can make them up, but you can't make up the state of fear and torture.

"One more question..."

At this time, Han Bing suddenly looked at Xu Kun and asked softly, "Why do you call that building Building Number Nine Ghost Building?"

"I..."

Xu Kun looked up at Han Bing, seeming hesitant. Master Qun asked himself to answer the question, this person...

Master Qun glared at him coldly and slowly lifted up the crutch.

Xu Kun replied hurriedly, "I said, I said, this was said by my colleague. Before the senior management entered Ghost Building, they arranged for several of their confidants to be responsible for security work and not let people in or get close... Those confidants were all not out of the city with us to carry out the mission at the time... It was them. Their subordinates said that the building has become very strange now..."

"Every time I get close to that building, I always feel like something is watching me..."

"Some people also say that that building can... cannibalize people. Some security guards who accidentally approached were eaten..."

"..."

The room suddenly became extremely quiet again.

Master Qun's face changed several times after hearing this, and suddenly he picked up the cane again and said, "Are you telling ghost stories in the middle of the night?"

Xu Kun immediately held his head and shouted, "I told the truth, it's really the truth..."

"He probably didn't lie."

Han Bing and Lu Xin looked at each other and determined this issue.

"In this case, I think the problem is very clear. If you understand what is in that building Ghost Building, you can understand a lot of things."

Han Bing thought seriously and said, "I will make a plan as soon as possible..."

Seeing Han Bing's face clearly showing signs of fatigue, but still working hard to help them come up with ideas, Lu Xin couldn't help but smile and said, "You have done a good job, don't take this matter on yourself anymore."

As he spoke, he nodded slightly to her and said, "Leave this matter to me."

"..."

Han Bing was slightly surprised and said, "What are you going to do, Mr. Shan Bing?"

Lu Xin smiled and said, "Of course I came directly to the door to have a look."

"?"

Han Bing shook his head subconsciously. "No, no, it's too dangerous..."

Lu Xin was startled for a moment, then smiled and looked at the little girl who seemed a little confused. She felt a little cute.

"So, who do you mean is dangerous?"

Haha, I never expected this!
