At noon, the Chaosi Cemetery in Hancheng is very quiet. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info There is no sun in sight in the sky, and the gray clouds are clustered together, and they roll and move wantonly, like stacks of ink-stained rice paper, ready for heavy rain to pour at any time. The cemetery is backed by green hills, and the mountain wind hunts by, blowing people's faces painfully.

A man in a hat with a black body, holding a large bouquet of flowers, stood silently in front of a tombstone. The tombstone is simple in style, with two small photographs on it. I don't know who chose the photo, Han Mengchang squinted slightly, and Lou Yan had a gentle smile, they stayed in that moment forever. In the middle of the tombstone is written "Tomb of Respected Teacher Han Mengchang - Master Lou Yan - ". In front of the tombstone, there is a bouquet of flowers that have long since dried up, I don't know what year, month, and person gave it.

The man's face showed a rare expression of tenderness, and he stared at the picture on the tombstone, as if there was also a person standing opposite, looking at him lovingly. He gently swept away the dust from the grave with the dead branches on the ground, and then put down the flower he was holding in his arms. He guessed that this tombstone must have been erected by Han Mengchang's students, and he was secretly grateful to them for burying the couple together.

The man stood quietly in front of the tombstone for a long time, he used to be very afraid of memories, because the sweetness and pain in them were too clear. But now, he has been able to control his emotions, and even when he stands in front of the grave, he can do it without shedding a single tear. Grief has long since turned into a deep sea-like force, and it is not easy to make waves again, but it only sweeps over his soul and accompanies his life.

"There are a few less. He said to himself, "There are countless family souls, whose tombstones have nowhere to be placed but in my heart." ”

He stepped forward and stroked the wavy carving at the top of the tombstone, the rough stone scratching his palm, but as if he were unconscious, he just let his hand slowly slide off the tombstone.

A huge drop of rain fell on his shoulder.

He spread his umbrella and still stood silently in front of the tomb. The rain became heavier and heavier, and the heavy rain washed over the Chaosi Cemetery, as if it wanted to wash away all the pain, injustice and struggle in this world.

There was a hint of reluctance in his eyes, but he finally turned around and walked out of the cemetery along the rain-soaked path.

At the same time, Shi Zhiran, the warden of Yinyangguan, was standing outside the gate of Yinyangguan. Behind him stood two rows of prison guards with their chests held high, waiting for the arrival of the president of the Yinyangguan Charity Foundation.

The sudden heavy rain made Shi Zhiran feel quite embarrassed, the office director helped him with an umbrella, and the rest of the people maintained a solemn demeanor and stood silently in the rain.

To Shi Zhiran's great surprise, the legendary RB gold lord didn't bring any assistants, and came alone in a taxi.

As soon as he opened the car door, Shi Zhiran rushed up and put the prepared umbrella on top of the other party's head.

"Really...... It's funky. Shi Zhiran sighed in his heart, never dreaming that the president of the foundation was actually a trendy man dressed like a singer: he wore a small black round hat, long slanted bangs covered most of his forehead, and thick black eyeliner and silver eyeshadow highlighted his big eyes. He had a shiny five-pointed star on one side of his nose and a deep groove on his smooth chin.

What was even more surprising was that he was dressed, although it was plain black, but it was a leather jacket and leather pants, and the pants were tightly attached to his legs, as if he was deliberately showing off his long legs.

If he saw this person on the road, Shi Zhiran would probably scoff, "Dead sissy cannon." But now, all he could do was squeeze out a serious smile.

"First meeting. Takagi Gongwang took the initiative to speak, and the other party's Japanese made Shi Zhiran wake up like a dream, and he quickly waved to the office director, who reacted and immediately pushed a short prison guard to the front.

"Hello Mr. Takagi, I'm translator Xiao Chen. "The guard stammered a little bit in Japanese, his pronunciation was good, but it wasn't fluent.

Takagi nodded and stretched out his hand to Shi Zhiran.

The latter held this God of Wealth and smiled like a flower: "Welcome, welcome!" After Xiao Chen translated his words, Takagi Gongwang nodded coldly and politely, "Can I visit here first?"

"Of course, of course, we will!" Shi Zhiran received a notice that Takagi Gongwang was coming three days ago, and he had already arranged for someone to do a good job of cleaning.

Takagi Gongwang followed behind Shi Zhiran and coldly visited this prison, which was said to be the coldest and most severe prison in Hancheng.

At this time, it is the beginning of January, but the rows of Dian Pu in the Yin and Yang Pass still have clusters of green leaves, with its own gray and white trunks, it looks particularly elegant.

When he walked near the prison supermarket, Takagi stopped, he didn't enter the supermarket, but pointed to the warehouse directly opposite the supermarket and asked, "What is this?"

"Mr. Takagi, this is the prison warehouse, which stores some goods from the supermarket and some other prison supplies. Shi Zhiran said respectfully, and Xiao Chen immediately translated.

"I see what looks like there's a row of houses behind the warehouse?"

"It's now abandoned, it used to be a generator room. ”

"Don't you need a generator room now, is it so advanced?" asked Takagi in surprise.

"Of course not. We have now expanded the size of the prison and moved the generator room to the prison hospital next door. Shi Zhiran patiently explained, he was a little worried: in case Mr. Takagi asked why he was relocated, how would it be more appropriate.

But Takagi didn't ask any further, his attention seemed to be attracted by the cafeteria in front of him: "There, it's a place to eat, right?"

Shi Zhiran smiled all over his face: "Mr. Takagi is so powerful, you can see it at a glance!"

Takagi said lightly: "There is a chimney there. ”

Shi Zhiran was a little embarrassed, so he had to laugh dryly. He couldn't figure out the temper of this flashy gold owner who looked like a rich second generation, and he didn't dare to offend the other party, so he had to keep smiling with his face.

"Look, do you want to eat first?" Shi Zhiran finally thought of a more suitable topic, and Xiao Chen also translated it.

Takagi shook his head and continued to walk.

"What a weirdo. Shi Zhiran muttered in his heart.

"This is where the prisoners usually move. Takagi stopped in front of the Fangfeng Plaza, "The equipment is well maintained, and it's all new. ”

Shi Zhiran was a little proud: "This is a new one." It's a new thing, but it's actually been more than three years, but the prisoners usually take care of the equipment, so it looks pretty good. ”

As the rain subsided a little, Shi Zhiran stole a glance at Takagi Gongwang's feet, who were wearing a pair of black boots that he didn't recognize, with shiny ornaments on the shafts, but they were a little wet. "Mr. Takagi, behind this is the prison factory and prison house, otherwise, let's not look at it. ”

Takagi looked at the gray prison and didn't say a word.

For some reason, Shi Zhiran felt a little strange: although this RB person looked very "motherly", his speech and demeanor did not have that kind of "craftsmanship", but with a little melancholy and resentment.

Shi Zhiran thought of the poster posted in his daughter's room, and sighed in his heart, it seems that this kind of dress is very popular now, he really can't understand it.

"Why don't you go to my office and sit down?" Shi Zhiran couldn't stand this taciturn atmosphere. Along the way, basically he and the translator Xiao Chen were talking, and it is estimated that the RB people said no more than ten sentences.

"If you don't bother. Takagi suddenly smiled.

Shi Zhiran was taken aback, this was the first time the other party laughed, and he was a little flattered: "The rain hasn't stopped yet, look, I asked the driver to drive the car over?"

Takagi nodded in agreement.

Shi Zhiran breathed a sigh of relief, the other party finally didn't refuse him this time.

The car drove to the office area, and the rain had already decreased a lot, but I still had to use an umbrella. Shi Zhiran walked in front of him to open the way, he turned back to Takagi Gongwang and said, "I don't know if Mr. Takagi has heard of a saying, 'Noble people go out in a lot of wind and rain', you are a typical noble person when you go out." ”

Xiao Chen translated, and Takagi Gongwang smiled reservedly. The smile was a textbook classic, with its mouth open but not showing its teeth, and the corners of its mouth were raised but not touching any obvious muscles.

Walking into Shi Zhiran's office, Takagi looked around curiously. It's clearly newly renovated, and the wall facing the desk is made of four different colors of stone to form a fan pattern. Underneath the fan, there is a large pot with only soil and no plants.

"Is there anything special about this?" Takagi Gongwang looked at the pot of soil, and finally couldn't help but ask.

"I'm not afraid of you laughing, I don't understand. Shi Zhiran smiled bitterly and said, "This is what a feng shui master suggested to me. ”

"Feng Shui?" Takagi Gongwang's eyes widened, "Isn't a place like prison inherently ......" he didn't go on, but his expression was already self-evident.

"I understand what you mean, prison is not a treasure of feng shui in the first place. The main thing is that there is an incident here, and then you have to pay attention to it. Shi Zhiran explained with difficulty, and Xiao Chen's translation was also awkward.

"Can you tell me what it is, there's a ghost?" Takagi Gongwang had already sat down on the sofa, but now he straightened up, as if he was in high spirits.

Shi Zhiran hesitated, he really didn't want to mention that matter, so he said hesitantly: "Mr. Takagi, it's not too early, and we don't want to delay your time all the time." Look, would I like to show you the Foundation's information first?"

Takagi Gongwang's expression began to become cold, his skin was already light, and now he was even more indifferent and detached: "I didn't expect that the investment environment in your land would be so poor. ”

Before Xiao Chen translated, Shi Zhiran knew something bad. After Xiao Chen finished translating, Shi Zhiran's cold sweat came out in a hurry, "No! You misunderstood! I've only taken over here for more than three years, and there are some things that I really don't know much about." ”

"How could a prison warden not know his prison?" said Takagi, a skeptical look.

Shi Zhiran sighed, "Let me make it clear to you first, when that incident happened, I hadn't come to the Yin and Yang Pass yet. What happened at that time had nothing to do with me. ”

Takagi looked at him intently, making a deaf look.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and the office director walked in with tea. The water was clearly freshly boiled, and white heat kept bubbling out of the teapot, just like the exuberant curiosity of the RB people.

Shi Zhiran waved his hand and motioned for the director of the office to go out.

After the door closed again, Shi Zhiran opened his mouth with difficulty: "Mr. Takagi, it's not that I don't want to tell you and Pan, it's really that this matter is too strange. ”

After Xiao Chen finished translating, Takagi Gongwang suddenly laughed, "Please forgive me, I'm a very curious person. I know this might be a bit of a bummer for you, but can you tell me what's going on here?" he added, "You can rest assured, I'm not the kind of person who speaks like a trumpet." ”

Shi Zhiran let out a long sigh and turned his head to look at Xiao Chen: "Today's matter must be rotten in the stomach." ”

Xiao Chen nodded nervously, and then looked at Takagi Gongwang: "This sentence, do you want to translate it?"

Shi Zhiran shook his head, he picked up the teacup, wanting to drink saliva to calm down, but maybe he was too nervous, he actually forgot that the water in the cup was just boiled, and it was scalded without accident.

Xiao Chen was startled, and hurriedly asked, "It doesn't matter, I'll go get you some cold water?"

Shi Zhiran waved his hand painfully before he could speak: "Forget it." Although he said it lightly, his Chinese face was wrinkled all the time, and he was obviously still very uncomfortable.

While the two were talking, Takagi walked to the newspaper shelf in the corner and silently flipped through the magazines on it.

Shi Zhiran looked funny, "I can't understand Chinese, and I still turn it over." He thought mockingly. At this time, he felt that his tongue was numb, and finally it didn't hurt much. He pulled himself together, "Mr. Takagi, please sit here." ”

Takagi walked back to the edge of the couch, "You seem to be in a bit of a situation just now?"

"Thank you for your concern, it's fine. Shi Zhiran is now like a student who failed the final exam, holding the test paper that needs to be signed by his parents, hovering at the door of his house, not daring to squeak.

"The strange thing you mentioned earlier......"

"I'm sorry, I almost forgot. Shi Zhiran patted his head and pretended to be suddenly enlightened, "This incident happened in 2011. ”

"Oh, 4 years ago?"

"Well, yes. I hadn't been here yet, and I only found out about these things later. Shi Zhiran's attempt to clear it almost made Takagi Gongwang impatient, but he still held back. "And then?"

"During the Spring Festival of 2011, two prisoners escaped from Yinyang Pass. One crashed into the high-voltage power grid, and the other fell off a 100-meter cliff. ”

"That must all be dead. Takagi said, "The power grid, the 100-meter cliff, if you can live, there will be ghosts." ”

Xiao Chen's translation of the word "ghost" seemed to make Shi Zhiran a little scared, "The one on the power grid is dead, and the one that fell down doesn't know, and the body is not found." He hesitated for a moment, then said, "The day these two people died, it happened to be Chinese New Year's Eve." Then, from the beginning of the first year, the people of Yin and Yang Pass disappeared one after another. On the first day of junior high school, one person was missing, on the second day of junior high school, one person was missing, and on the third day of junior high school, another person was missing...... By the seventh day of the first lunar month, seven people were missing from the Yin and Yang Pass!"
