Chapter 11 The Plank Road That Can't Be Mentioned
Jiang Xu kept his face calm, as if someone else owed him hundreds of thousands, and the whole person looked abnormally low.
Even Su Yang didn't dare to come forward to ask.
Qiao Jing looked at Jiang Xu and smiled slightly, this expression was exactly the same as the teacher's expression.
Su Yang looked at Jiang Xu, and looked out of the door embarrassedly, hoping that Wu Lei would come back soon.
Soon, Wu Lei came back with the staff in charge of reception work at the bottom of the mountain.
Seeing Wu Lei coming back, Su Yang immediately stood up excitedly.
"You're finally back, I thought you weren't going to come?"
Wu Lei was a little strange when he heard Su Yang say this.
"What?
Su Yang smiled politely, and hurried forward, Wu Lei said.
"It's been taken care of, the staff here will arrange special activities, and the staff has also been found. ”
Jiang Xu had been sitting on the sofa, staring at the front desk reception standing behind Wu Lei, a little trembling.
The reaction of the front desk was not strange in their eyes, but in Jiang Xu's eyes, it was very abnormal.
Asahi walked up to him and looked at him condescendingly, the difference in height between the two was nearly thirty centimeters.
"You ...... Find me, what's the matter?"
The staff raised their heads, looked up at Jiang Xu and asked.
Jiang Xu did not speak immediately, but paced back and forth around the staff.
After a while, he opened his mouth quietly.
"Actually, I only have one question for you!"
After Jiang Xu finished speaking, everyone gasped, although it is necessary to cooperate with the police to handle the case, but for the sake of a problem, they specially called people up the mountain, and whoever was replaced would be unhappy in their hearts.
Su Yang cautiously walked to Jiang Xu's side and approached Jiang Xu's ear embarrassedly.
"That's not good! Just call people up for a problem!"
Jiang Xu glanced at Su Yang and actually laughed.
"It's just a question, of course I don't need to call her up, I have other reasons, let's not talk about this, I'm going to figure out what I want to know now. ”
Jiang Xu looked at the staff, and then asked indifferently.
"I wonder why you don't even mention the boardwalk on the right hand side of the villa?"
Hearing this, everyone looked at the staff in unison.
I saw that the staff's face was pale, more nervous than before, their fingers unconsciously crossed each other, and a trace of fine sweat oozed from their foreheads, I don't know if it was because they were nervous, or because they were a little tired from going up the mountain just now.
Jiang Xu's eyes never left her, she lowered her head, a little overwhelmed.
Everyone was waiting for her answer, but she didn't have any explanation.
Seeing this, Jiang Xu continued to ask.
"Do you think we won't be able to find out if you don't say it? If you don't want to continue the trouble, it's better to be honest, or we might treat the staff here as suspects. ”
The staff immediately raised their heads and looked at Jiang Xu in some surprise, but Jiang Xu looked comfortable, as if what he said was not a big fuss.
Everyone turned their eyes to Jiang Xu again, not understanding why Jiang Xu would suddenly be so strict with the staff here.
The staff bit their lower lip and looked directly at Jiang Xu with determination.
"We don't really know about this, because when the company started doing business here, I didn't come to work, and then somehow, most of the employees left. We came later, and when we came, the people who belonged here told us that the plank road over there could not be walked, even if someone came here to do activities, they couldn't mention it. So we're used to not mentioning that way, and all of us are going the way you go up the mountain. ”
Jiang Xu frowned, and then began to pace again, Su Yang felt that he hadn't seen it before, Jiang Xu seemed to have ADHD, and he seemed to be unable to be idle when he thought about it.
Jiang Xu nodded, and then said.
"That's why there's not even a street sign over there, just to prevent others from inadvertently finding that road, right? But there's no guarantee that no one has walked that road for so many years, and since that road really can't be walked, why not just seal it up?"
The staff lowered their heads, then looked up again.
"It's not that we don't want to seal it, in fact, we also mentioned this when we came, but the boss here is reluctant to block the road, and our supervisor can't ask why, as if he doesn't like people to mention it, and he doesn't want to tell anyone the reason. ”
Jiang Xu stopped suddenly, and then looked at the staff seriously.
"Has anyone walked that road before, or if I ask again, have the same tragedies happened here in the last few years?"
When he said this, Jiang Xu's tone became gloomy, and the temperature around him plummeted a little, as if he was about to be frozen.
The staff was shaken, and their whole bodies trembled uncontrollably.
After a long while, he shook his head slightly.
"I don't know about that, nothing happened when I was working here. ”
But the tone of her voice seemed very hesitant, which inevitably made people think that she was lying.
Su Yang took a step forward and immediately shouted angrily.
"Do you think we're going to believe that? Do you believe yourself when you answer questions in such a tone?"
The staff was a little anxious by Su Yang.
"I'm not lying, nothing really happened during my work. ”
Jiang Xu immediately heard the meaning of her words, and then turned around and asked her.
"So, have you heard anything about what happened here, or did any of the old staff members mention it before you came?"
I don't know if there is no way to be asked, the staff lowered their voices and said in a trembling voice.
"Actually, I've heard of it. However, when I first came here, I heard from the two staff members who used to work here. In the past few years, two headless corpses have been found here, and they did not alarm the police, and those old employees, in order not to publicize it and not let the name of the company be damaged, so the bodies were burned. This is also the reason why so many old employees have left. ”
It was like a big stone in his heart fell to the ground, and after the staff said this, it became much easier, he took a step back, distanced himself from Jiang Xu, and then said.
"I don't know if other people know, you can also ask about this matter one by one, but whether that incident was true or false, no one knows, the two old employees who mentioned this matter have also left, one of them seems to have some mental problems, and I don't know the specific details. ”
Jiang Xu kept frowning tightly.
If, according to the staff, there was a headless corpse case two years ago, then it is not surprising that it is happening again.
"Did the two employees tell you about that?"
The staff shook their heads.
"I didn't say the exact time, and I didn't think to ask, it was scary enough to hear about it at the time, in fact, I also thought about it at the time, whether I should continue to work here, but the salary here is very high. Also, I thought they were deliberately telling ghost stories to scare me, so I didn't pay much attention to it, and I didn't expect this to really happen this time. ”
Jiang Xu lowered his head and thought about it, then asked again.
"The two people who died at that time also came here to do activities?"
The staff nodded.
"Yes, it's also a tourist here, I don't know about the rest. ”
After Jiang Xu finished speaking, Wu Lei stepped forward and wanted to send the staff down the mountain, but was stopped by Jiang Xu.
"You take a rest here first, I'll ask you for help in a moment. ”
The staff is unknown.
Jiang Xu turned around to look at her, and the corners of his mouth raised an indescribable weirdness
