The needle on the device was pointing at the Esper’s position!
“Little Xing, control my father first. Beitang Lie, you and I will chase after him!” Chi Jiao’s expression was unprecedentedly serious. After she finished speaking, she rushed out.
Chi Jiao’s speed was so fast that she left behind an afterimage. Beitang Lie and Shen Xing were stunned.
It was clear that Chi Jiao was completely enraged!
“The Esper dared to attack Uncle. He’s dead for sure!” After saying that, Beitang Lie jumped out of the window and left.
Chi Jiao followed the direction indicated by the needle and arrived at her backyard.
There was a storage room in the backyard that was not often used. The device showed that the strange magnetic field came from there.
She had just approached the storage room when she sensed a sinister and strange aura. Chi Jiao looked at the tightly locked door of the storage room and gave Beitang Lie a look.
He smiled wickedly and gave the door a heavy kick.
With a loud bang, the door was kicked open.
A thick layer of dust was swept up by the strong whirlwind, spreading across the air.
The storage room was pitch-black, and a faint foul smell could be smelled.
Chi Jiao reached out and searched the wall. She found the switch for the lights in the storage room and pressed it.
However, the light bulb did not light up.
“Boss, a flashlight.” Beitang Lie immediately handed her a flashlight.
“He must be here. Go to the left, I’ll go to the right.” Chi Jiao did not give him any chance to haggle as she strode into the storage room.
The moment they entered the storage room, the strange smell in the air became even more distinct. It was like a rotting smell, mixed with a damp mold that rushed into their noses.
Chi Jiao first went to the right side of the storage room. The light from the torch pierced through the darkness, allowing her to clearly see the marks on the ground and the wall.
The marks looked like thousands of worms had just been crawling all over here. The sticky marks were everywhere, making one shiver just by looking at them.
As Chi Jiao continued to search, Beitang Lie also discovered similar marks.
The sticky marks looked like mucus left behind by a snail. They sparkled when illuminated by the flashlight.
Soft footsteps rang out. Beitang Lie turned around and saw a petite figure in the darkness. “Boss, I don’t see anything strange on my side. I’ll go in further to take a look.”
Beitang Lie walked towards the depths of the storage room. He did not notice that behind him, a short, big-headed monster revealed a sinister smile. It opened its mouth and spat out a few worms that were as thick as an infant’s wrist. The worms wriggled towards Beitang Lie.
The depths of the storage room were even messier. Beitang Lie saw a few ropes hanging from the ceiling beams. His lips twitched when he finally saw traces of blood on the ground.
Blood was trickling out of a box, giving off a faint fishy smell.
Beitang Lie quickly squatted down and tried to open the locked box.
The worms had climbed up to the ceiling beams. They twisted their bodies and stuck their heads out. As if toying with him, they used their tails to sweep at Beitang Lie’s face.
The worms thought that he would be instantly alerted. However, to their surprise, Beitang Lie just slapped at them impatiently..
