Chapter 2 Chapter Two

The young man's name is Qu Siqi, and the girl's name is Bai Xiaozhou. Both are members of the No. 051 Research Institute. Research Institute No. 051 is a mysterious organization that mainly studies supernatural events and often assists the police in investigating supernatural cases. Its members all have certain abilities. "Siqi, how did you make the car look like a broken car?" Bai Xiaozhou sat in the passenger seat and adjusted his makeup in front of the rearview mirror. Qu Siqi smiled and said, "The car is not broken, I just used some tricks .I have learned this kind of little magic since I was a child, and I used to use it to make pranks."

Bai Xiaozhou squinted at him and asked, "Did that stick hurt you seriously?" "Haha, I dodged when the stick came down and just touched my head lightly. The blood is ketchup, left over from eating French fries tonight." At this time, Bai Xiaozhou remembered that when he was eating French fries at that gas station, he grabbed a lot of ketchup packets. "So you've 'seen' the robbery tonight." Qu Siqi's ability is "foreseeing the future", but this ability is not very easy to use, he can't control it, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, which makes him very distressed.Even so, in those extremely dangerous cases that the 051 Institute had encountered before, his predictive ability was still of great help.

"What would happen if we didn't take a long way to catch them today?" Bai Xiaozhou asked casually. Qu Siqi was silent for a moment and said: "They will kill a father and daughter here and bury them in a pit on the side of the road. Especially the little girl died a terrible death. I won't describe the details to you." Bai Xiaozhou shivered and remained silent.After a long time, she suddenly said, "Have you seen the American movie "Death Comes"?" Qu Siqi seemed to be punched in the chest by someone. Of course he had seen that movie. The plot was about a few young people who took a plane to Paris. .He made a fuss and got off the plane with a few classmates. His prediction came true, the plane really exploded. They thought they had escaped, but they didn't know that it was just the beginning of the disaster.Unwilling to fail, the Grim Reaper set up all kinds of terrible death traps and brutally killed the survivors one by one. In the end, no one was spared.

When Bai Xiaozhou mentioned the movie at this time, both of them knew the deep meaning in his words. "I've never encountered such a thing." Qu Siqi turned his head to look at her, "Movies are just movies, otherwise you would have died countless times. So there is nothing to be afraid of." Said the last sentence When he spoke, his tone was very heavy, as if he was speaking to her, but also to himself. Bai Xiaozhou patted him on the shoulder: "There's nothing to be afraid of, didn't we just go to hell?" What she was referring to was a strange case that had happened to them a few days before. Dong Jin, the general manager of a cultural company in J City, fell into a dry well behind the company in the middle of the night.The dry well also has some origins. During the Republic of China, there lived a big landlord who committed all kinds of evil. He accidentally fell into the well on the eve of liberation. Since then, the dry well has been sealed.More than sixty years later, the landlord's house was demolished and tall buildings were built, but the well remained there for various reasons.Dong Jin fell into the well inexplicably. The firefighters went down to rescue him, but they seemed to have been greatly frightened.All kinds of weird legends about the dry well were brought up again, and the J city police asked the No. 051 Research Institute to investigate.The boss of the research institute, police officer Sima Fanti, thought it was just a trivial matter, so he only brought Bai Xiaozhou there.When he arrived at the scene, he volunteered to go down to the well to investigate. Bai Xiaozhou waited for a long time but did not see him come out. He was very panicked and immediately called the research institute for help.At that time, only Qu Siqi was there, and he couldn't contact anyone else, so he had to come alone.The two stood by the well and were studying countermeasures, but they heard the sound of boiling liquid coming from the well, mixed with cries for help and screams. They finally couldn't sit still, tied a rope, and entered the well together.

The well was very deep, very deep, and the process of falling was very long. The two almost had an illusion, as if they had come to another world.However, the bottom of the well is not another world, it is just an ordinary dry well, the space is larger than what you see from the outside, and in the middle of the bottom of the well, there is a huge pot full of hot oil. There was fire, bubbling and bubbling. Sima Fanti was standing in front of the oil pan, holding a woman's shoe in his hand, staring dumbfoundedly at the two to three meter high iron pan with a slightly dull expression. "Boss." Qu Siqi pushed him, "Are you okay?"

Sima Fanti woke up suddenly as if having a nightmare, glared at the two of them and shouted, "What are you doing down here? This is hell! Hell!" "Boss, what are you talking about? How could there be a pot here?" The two of them were taken aback, thinking that Sima Fanti had lost his mind just like the firefighter, but suddenly they heard a crash, and a human head appeared in the oil On the edge of the pot, there was a little girl with big eyes and a stiff face, like a lifeless doll. Before the two of them came back to their senses, another head appeared next to the little girl. It was a middle-aged man with a ferocious face: "I beg you, save my daughter!" Pushing the girl away with all his strength, the girl rolled out of the oil pan and fell in front of everyone. Bai Xiaozhou only took one look, and then screamed uncontrollably.

The girl had been reduced to skeletons from the neck down, and Bai Sensen's skeleton looked like the skeleton specimens standing in the cabinets in the dissection room. "Why? What...what's going on here?" Qu Siqi grabbed Sima Fanti's lapel, "Boss, what exactly is this place?" "Up to the mountain of knives, down to the pan of oil." Sima Fanti's face was gloomy, "I've already said, this is hell." Qu Siqi was stunned, and turned his head to look at the big iron pot, which was still boiling, but there was no oily smoke coming out. "No, it's impossible, this must be someone's conspiracy."

"Do you still remember the story in "Fengdu County Magistrate" in "Liao Zhai"?" Sima Fanti looked at him and said, "Hell is underground, and this is underground." Bai Xiaozhou covered his mouth, his face was pale, he couldn't say a word for a long time, is this really hell?If so, why did Dong Jin and his daughter suffer such torture? "I don't care where this is." Qu Siqi nervously put the rope around Sima Fanti's body, "Let's go out first." Originally, Bai Xiaozhou thought he was in danger, but the way out was very smooth, and they were pulled out of the wellhead, still in shock. The policeman in City J asked them what happened at the bottom of the well. Sima Fanti was silent for a long time, and told them that Dong Jin was dead, and that it would be better to close the well to avoid more accidents.

The police thought they were crazy, but what happened immediately made them believe it. There was a clear sound of hot oil boiling in the well, and hot oil shot out of the sky in full view. Fortunately, the area around the dry well was sealed off and no one was injured.In the hot oil lay scattered bones. Two skulls, one large and one small, stood side by side on the edge of the well. The black eye sockets seemed to be telling something. Everyone was stunned, and the eyes of the skeleton were like a huge shadow, hanging over everyone's heads. The J city police sealed the dry well again, and after investigation, more truth surfaced.Dong Jin, who had a successful career, was once a robber who murdered and robbed countless people. After robbing enough money, he came to J City to make a new life, married a wife, and gave birth to another child. lovely daughter.

That night, when he came home as usual, his wife told him that his daughter had gone to the company to look for him. He hurried to the company and searched the company, but he couldn't find his daughter. When he was anxious, he saw her by the dry well. A lady's shoe, it was his daughter's shoe. He picked up the shoes, as if summoned by some force, jumped into the dry well. What awaits him is the pan of hell. The Oil Pot Hell is the ninth of the 18 Hells. Those who prostitute and whore, thieves and robbers, bully the good and the weak, abduct women and children, falsely accuse and slander others, and take other people’s property and wives will enter the Oil Pot Hell after death. .

While BYD was still driving on the road, Bai Xiaozhou looked at the rainy scene outside the window and said in a low voice, "Dong Jin is indeed worthy of death, but that little girl who was only in her teens, what crime did she go to hell with him?" "That girl had a mole at the corner of her eye, and a female victim killed by Dong Jin also had a mole at the corner of her eye." Bai Xiaozhou took a deep breath, she didn't dare to imagine it, it would subvert her worldview. "It's really like a dream." After a long time, she sighed and changed the topic, "Boss said he wants to go home and have a look. Isn't there no one in his house?" "Who said that?" Qu Siqi said, "The eldest grandmother is still there, and he has to visit her every month." Bai Xiaozhou was a little surprised, but then relieved that although she had worked together for two years, she didn't really understand these friends who got along day and night. Suddenly there was a creak, BYD slammed on the brakes, Bai Xiaozhou almost hit the glass, and the robbers behind rolled down one by one, falling on their backs. "What are you doing?" Bai Xiaozhou said angrily. "I saw a person." Qu Siqi swallowed his saliva, "I really hit someone." Before he could finish speaking, a man with blood all over his face suddenly threw himself on the car window, with his face pressed against the glass, looking extremely ferocious.
