Chapter 8: Night Terror
Lin Mo returned to the west district of H City, this shantytown with backward conditions is more suitable for accommodation, especially for Lin Mo now, the deposit of one hundred yuan on his body is enough for him to live for half a month, and when he finds a formal job, there will always be rent at that time.
Lin Mo sorted out the new accommodation, this is a shanty family, the landlord is also an honest man, the fourth floor has been empty and no one lives, seeing Lin Mo to ask about accommodation, the landlord cleaned up the room clutter and rented it to this young man, for them, it is already very considerable to earn three hundred yuan.
After tidying up the room, Lin Mo was lying on the bed in a large shape, it felt good to have a home, even if this was not his real home, it was already very happy for Lin Mo to have a place to shelter from the wind and rain.
As night fell, Lin Mo received a message from the old man at home,
"Xiaomo, I heard that you are in H City, and the night running company contacted me today, and I also heard about it, I think this job is very suitable for you. I met Director Jiang today, let me tell you one thing, I used to be old friends with Director Jiang, she has a daughter named Jiang Keer, I hope you will protect them for me, Director Jiang has some enemies, there may be abnormal movements at night, as soon as it gets dark, you will go to the East District near the No. 4 Middle School to go around, if there is anything abnormal, you must protect Director Jiang's mother and daughter, it may be related to that case. Also, that toy you played with as a kid is a treasure, don't throw it away,"
Lin Mo was surprised to read the text message from Old Man Zhou, an old man who was scavenging, when did he meet Director Jiang? Why hadn't I heard the old man mention it before?
Lin Mo was confused, but there were two words that were repeated and emphasized: "Protection,"
A big man like Director Jiang, who was born in the armed police, still needs to be protected? Lin Mo had a question in his heart, since the old man in the family deliberately asked him to pay attention, there may be some reason.
When Lin Mo finished reading the text message, he had already changed into black clothes, and finally took out a black masked cloth from the package, he jumped on the eaves of the roof of the accommodation, the night wind was blowing, Lin Mo stood on the edge of the eaves, and gently covered his face.
The card in his hand glowed slightly white. Lin Mo found himself running faster and faster than before, recalling the text message the old man sent just now, could it be that the old man always knew the secret of this card?
In an instant, like a ray of light, Lin Mo ran along the edge of the roof.
Lin Mo shuttled through the night, and after a while, he came to the eastern district of H City.
This is a residential building residence, the floor of the East District community is not high, the highest is five floors, the housing prices in H City in recent years have been very expensive, and this community is the best villa area in the market, the air is clear, away from the city, quiet and pleasant, you can live here, it is conceivable, in addition to the rich, or be a big official, a person with power.
Lin Mo, who was standing on the highest floor, looked at the city at night and didn't notice anything unusual. Old man Zhou asked him to protect Director Jiang's daughter, could it be that he had other deep meanings? However, Director Jiang's daughter had disappeared in the case a week ago.
Time passed bit by bit, Lin Mo sat on the eaves, looked up at the sky, the stars under the night sky were shining, the starry sky was so beautiful! If one day, he could reach that place, it would be great, maybe he would be able to meet his parents who he had never met.
When I was a child, the old man always said: "Xiaomo, look, the stars under the night sky, someone is watching you, the ones that are shining, they may be your parents, or they may be the people you will meet in the future." ”
I firmly believe that I am born in my ideal, and I am persistent in seeing it under the beautiful starry sky. Every dark night since then, Lin Mo would climb up to the roof at night to see the bright stars in the night sky.
Lin Mo had been sitting on the eaves for two hours, and at this time, under the building he was sitting in, a woman appeared, she pushed open the gate of the courtyard, and when she was about to enter the house, three dark shadow figures next to her suddenly appeared, slowly approaching the woman.
