Chapter 22: Bomb Shelters
The fat man smiled.
He didn't answer Zhou Yi's question directly, but opened a backpack on his body, took out the computer and an iron box, and at the same time opened something like a jammer and put it on the dashboard.
This action made Zhou Yi full of doubts, what is this person going to do?
Zhou Yi's thoughts did not interrupt the fat man's movements, he turned on the computer, there were several photos on it, and pointed it to Zhou Yi to see.
"You must know where this is, right?"
As a local, of course, Zhou Yi recognized it at a glance, this photo is an air-raid shelter, left during the war, and he often went to play when he was a child, but it was later expanded into an emergency shelter, but there is still a large area that has not been developed.
"Phoenix Pool bomb shelter?"
The fat man nodded, and then opened a few more photos, obviously the inside of the bomb shelter, but it was an undeveloped part, surrounded by thick iron plates, and some old boxes, some of which were opened inside were iron cans, and the Japanese characters on them were very blurry.
"I found this iron box in this bomb shelter, you may not believe it, this iron box was used to hide treasure when I was a child, and whenever I grew up, I would go out and put something in whenever I had something important.
But in this box, I found something that I don't have in my memory, what do you think this is?"
As he spoke, the fat man opened the iron box, and the contents were very complicated, including wooden airplanes, some yellowed candy paper cigarette boxes, and medals and other things, but there were two slightly new envelopes inside, which were still very conspicuous.
The fat man opened the envelope directly, and inside was a stack of photos, with some words written on the back of the photos, and turned over the first one, on which was a miserable white Polo, his eyes fell on the remaining license plate, and Zhou Yi recognized it as his girlfriend's car at a glance.
On the back of the photo, there is a line of words, looking for eyewitnesses, Zhou Yi trembled when he saw this line of words, because it was his own handwriting, he confirmed that he had never seen a fat man, let alone printed such a photo, but why was his handwriting, as well as a photo of Azhu's car, here?
However, the four corners of this photo have been yellowed, with a serious musty smell, this is not a sense of time that can be faked, Zhou Yi looked at the fat man in front of him in puzzlement.
"Where did you get this picture?"
The fat man shook his head with a smile, put his finger to his lips, and looked around.
"It's not safe here, come with me, let's go to a safe place!"
Saying that, the fat man packed up his things, but the jammer was not put away, but just opened and put it in the backpack, Zhou Yi saw that the photo was loaded by him, and he was also a little anxious.
Open the door and get out of the car, follow the figure of the fat man closely, and walk towards a small path on the edge of the parking lot.
The lawn on the ground was trampled on a trail that was absolutely ignored by those who were not familiar with the terrain.
After walking a long way, he came to a flat place, there was no light, and he could only see from the general outline that there seemed to be some buildings at the foot of the mountain below, but the fat man didn't say anything, and Zhou Yi didn't ask much.
At this time, the fat man in front stopped.
Waving his hand at Zhou Yi and pointing to his feet, Zhou Yi bent down to take a look, and wanted to take out his mobile phone to illuminate, but was stopped by the fat man, and still did not explain.
Zhou Yi carefully explored the way down, it turned out that this was a step, but it was all moss, very slippery, the steps were very high, and the fat man stopped when he walked below.
After fumbling around, he lifted a large tarpaulin, listened to the creaking metallic sound, and then a door seemed to be opened.
Zhou Yi followed, the fat man closed the door casually, and then turned on the flashlight, and when he saw that Zhou Yi was about to speak, he still raised his finger to his lips and shook his head.
This series of actions made Zhou Yi confused.
He just wanted to know, how could there be a photo of Azhu's car accident on the fat man, and that photo looked old, not just taken, but Azhu's accident has only been more than ten hours now, what the hell is going on?
However, seeing that the fat man still waved his hand to signal himself to follow, Zhou Yi didn't talk much nonsense, walked inside, and made an echoing sound every step on the ground, and walked to another door, the fat man hung the flashlight around his neck and rotated a spiral handle on the iron door vigorously.
The creaking sound was terrifying, but the iron door also opened, and the two entered, and the fat man concocted the same method, and closed the door again, as if he was tired of tossing, and the fat man let out a long breath.
Only then did he place a flashlight on a shelf next to the wall, pull a generator, and then the whole space lit up.
Only then did Zhou Yi see that they were now in a very empty space, with rows of boxes on the ground, some of the boxes were opened, and some were still tightly covered, and there were rows of cans inside, just like in the photo.
Like the image shown in the previous photo, Zhou Yi looked at the fat man, pointed to the generator and said:
"You got this?"
The fat man nodded.
"This is part of the Phoenix Pond bomb shelter, but it is not a part of the development, few people know, after all, my father used to take care of this area, I used to come here when I was a child, and gradually this place was forgotten, and I used to hide my secrets here.
But in the last two years, every time I come here, something special will appear in my box, such as the car accident photo, which does not belong to my memory, and I don't know why it appears here.
I've looked into license plates, and a new car with a new license plate that didn't appear until a month ago and hasn't been used before, and you say I have accident photos of these two cars, and the photos look some years old, isn't it amazing?"
Zhou Yi did not interrupt the fat man's narration, he had encountered a lot of magical events today, but this one did not shock Zhou Yi much.
The fat man sighed, and then said:
"After that, I checked the owner's information, and of course I found you, so I began to pay close attention to the car and your news, until this morning, when I browsed the traffic police's intranet, I found that the car had an accident, and then I started looking for you.
You may be shocked and incredulous, but I think I should have experienced the same event several times, including you and me.
Have you ever watched a horror cruise? Just like the plot of a horror cruise, as long as this matter is not over, it will loop indefinitely, you and I still have your girlfriend, and of course, that Wang Shengyu, it seems that our fates are intertwined. ”
The fat man looked at Zhou Yi, he wasn't sure if Zhou Yi could understand this, as if he wanted to see Zhou Yi's reaction.
Zhou Yi walked to the front of a box, and sat down directly regardless of whether it was dirty or not, he was really tired, not physical exhaustion, as if everything was out of control.
"I got a call from my girlfriend's family this morning, I knew she had been in a car accident and died, and then my car fell straight off the bridge, and when I was rescued and rushed to the hospital, I saw another me. ”
When the fat man heard this, he suddenly came to his senses and hurried to Zhou Yi.
"The other you? Are you sure they look the same, there is no difference? Did you talk to him or what?"
Zhou Yi shook his head and groped around on his body, the new clothes did not bring cigarettes, but the fat man took out a pack of cigarettes on his body, handed one to Zhou Yi, and he also lit one.
"That me, talking to Ah Zhu's parents, and kneeling down for Ah Zhu's parents, when I saw this scene, I had a kind of thought in my heart, that is, I would do the same action as him, and I would even know what they said. ”
The fat man widened his eyes, and hurriedly squatted in front of Zhou Yi, with an inquiring look on his face, and kept urging.
"And then, you rushed up?"
Zhou Yi shook his head again.
"No, a little nurse called me because I was running out of the emergency room, and she told me to go back for a check-up, and when I looked up again, that one was gone, and the whole yard was empty.
It seemed like it had never appeared, but it was only a few seconds, and even if I ran out, I would not have such a fast speed, and I thought it was a hallucination caused by the lack of oxygen after soaking in the water for a long time. ”
The fat man shook his head and said firmly:
"It's not an illusion, it must be another you!"
