He had promised to call him for dinner in the evening, but there was no news from Mayor Hu.
The surroundings were quiet. The ancient city seemed to be dead, and no one was awake.
Li Fan heard some faint movements downstairs. He went down to the first floor. The originally dim chandelier on the first floor had been extinguished.
Li Fan's eyes were dark, but he quickly adapted. The surrounding objects slowly appeared in front of Li Fan.
In this dilapidated small house, there was only a sofa and an old wooden coffee table in the living room on the first floor. The floor of the living room was originally made of wood, but it was almost rotten. If one stepped on it, one would be afraid of sinking into it.
Li Fan glanced at the sofa and found a person in a black cloak sitting on it.
From the rhythm of the other party's breathing, Li Fan could tell that it was a woman.
The other party suddenly jumped up from the sofa. She seemed to have adapted to the darkness. She looked at Li Fan's position and rushed over.
She rushed into Li Fan's arms and was held by Li Fan with his right hand. The woman's fragrance drifted into Li Fan's nose, making Li Fan feel extremely good.
This smell, it's Luoluo.
Li Fan's left hand pressed down on Luoluo's wrist to prevent the sharp knife she was holding from stabbing into his lower abdomen.
"Beauty, isn't it a little too exciting to find me so late at night?"
Li Fan's voice rang in her ear.
"Get out, get out of this town!"
The beauty growled. She seemed to be really angry.
She desperately tried to pull her hand out of Li Fan's control, but Li Fan was so strong that no matter how she struggled, she could not escape from Li Fan's palm.
She went crazy and used the weapon that women were best at, teeth.
Luoluo bit Li Fan's wrist, trying to make him let go of her hand. Li Fan was worried that Luoluo's teeth would be broken, so he deliberately withdrew a part of his Shield of Vigor.
His wrist was bitten until it bled, and a faint fishy smell wafted through the air. Luo Luo was still biting on tightly, refusing to let go.
"Comrade Special Agent!"
At this moment, the light from the fire shone in and shone on Li Fan and the others.
Mayor Hu stood outside with a few black-robed men beside him. All of their faces were lowered, looking somewhat gloomy.
"Luoluo, stop messing around!"
Mayor Hu ordered, and two burly men immediately stepped forward and dragged Luo Luo away.
Luo Luo exerted a shocking amount of strength, but she was still biting down on Li Fan's hand, as if she was going to bite off a piece of flesh!
Luo Luo was forcibly taken away, and Mayor Hu stood in front of Li Fan with an apologetic expression. There was some regret in his eyes, as if he was blaming himself for Luo Luo's behavior.
"I'm really sorry, Comrade Agent. Because of her husband, Luo Luo had always been mentally unstable. She doesn't mean any harm. She just doesn't like outsiders. Please don't be angry. "
"It's nothing, just a small injury."
The injury on Li Fan's wrist had already begun to heal, but there was a slight itch.
"Dinner has already been prepared in the government cafeteria. Comrade Agent, you must have been waiting for a long time. Let's go."
"Okay, I'll go wake up my colleagues."
Li Fan said. This time, Dragon Lady could finally be a little happier.
The two of them followed Mayor Hu and the others as they walked through the small town. However, Dragon Lady was still muttering.
"We still have to go to the government cafeteria to eat … It seems that the economy here is so backward that they don't even have a restaurant."
"Alright, it's good enough that we can eat a mouthful of hot rice."
Li Fan reminded Dragon Lady with a voice transmission, "Be careful, I keep feeling that something is strange."
"Strange? What strange? "
Dragon Lady's voice directly sounded in Li Fan's mind. This was the magical use of mental strength.
"I can't tell, but it's a little strange."
Li Fan had a bad feeling about this, but he trusted his intuition.
"Alright, alright, my beggar's chicken is still more important!"
Dragon Lady was a complete foodie. As long as she could eat, everything else could be left behind.
The government cafeteria was still shabby, and it was filled with food. However, the food in Songshan Town was relatively simple. Roasted potatoes, roasted sweet potatoes, and roasted eggplants were placed on the table in large plates. However, in the middle of the table, there was a beggar's chicken wrapped in mud, which attracted Dragon Lady's attention.
The others didn't seem to be qualified to sit at the table, so Mayor Hu invited Li Fan and the others to sit down. Beside him, a girl in a black cloak poured wine for them.
"Come, come, come, have a taste. This is the snake wine I brewed myself. It's very nourishing!"
Mayor Hu invited them with great hospitality, but Dragon Lady ignored his persuasion and directly smashed the dried mud with her palm, revealing the tender and crispy chicken inside. For a moment, the fragrance assailed their nostrils.
Li Fan was too embarrassed to refuse. He also picked up the wine cup, and the smell of wine assaulted his nostrils.
This medicinal wine wasn't something that could be casually drunk. As the saying goes, if one's body was weak, drinking medicinal wine casually would easily cause a nosebleed.
However, Li Fan was proficient in Essence Qi, so he could convert this tonic wine into energy.
"Let me tell the two of you, that Stone Dragon Cave is very strange."
Mayor Hu drank while talking to Li Fan endlessly. It seemed that he was a little drunk.
Once he started talking, he couldn't stop himself.
"I'm an atheist, but now I also feel that the Stone Dragon Cave is haunted! Otherwise, why would the people in this town disappear for no reason? "
"Don't think about it, I'm here to solve this problem for you. Wait until tomorrow, the truth will naturally be revealed. "
"Then this cup of wine, just treat it as a farewell for you, comrade!"
Mayor Hu picked up the wine cup again, "Come, let's drink together!"
"…"
Dragon Lady spat out the last piece of chicken bone. This chicken was probably not even enough to fill the gap between her teeth.
"Since the mayor wants us to drink, let's drink."
Li Fan advised.
"Alright."
Dragon Lady didn't refuse Li Fan's request. She picked up the wine cup and drank it in one gulp.
"Good, good, good, two comrades are really straightforward."
Mayor Hu drank a cup, then took out a pistol from his waist and slapped it on the table, "I'll personally accompany you. I want to see what the hell is in that Stone Dragon Cave!"
"Mayor … .you … .this is not safe …."
Someone next to him advised.
"What's not safe about it."
Mayor Hu didn't care, "The police chief is also missing, now I'm the police chief!"
"If that's the case, Mayor Hu can follow us."
Li Fan also didn't refuse, "But when we get there, just listen to our arrangements."
"Alright, I and the lives of more than a hundred people in this town, I'll leave it to you!"
Mayor Hu's face was flushed, seemingly a little excited, as if he hadn't been this happy for a long time.
"Two special agent comrades, when do you think we should leave?"
"Then let's go now, Mayor Hu, please."
