Chapter 260, Presence and Absentness

Li He felt that his current psychological quality was already very strong.

No matter how much he failed, after all, he had also worked as a forensic doctor and had been on the scene, knowing that even if he was a forensic doctor, he was not afraid of anything. I also know that as the center of the province's forensic system, the building of the forensic medicine department of the provincial department is not only a place for forensic doctors to conduct scientific research and study, but also a place to concentrate on solving unsolved cases that are difficult to solve by forensic medicine in various places.

In the past, Li He was sent to the archives to sort out the archives because of his poor professional level, but there were also a few times because of the lack of people, and the dissection room called him over to help, which was on the other side of this building.

Every time he went to Li He, he would vomit, after all, what he saw there was not only corpses, but also usually mutilated, strangely shaped, and foul-smelling, as well as highly decomposed, almost semi-liquefied corpses, as well as headless, crawling maggots, corpses waxed, charred...... In short, all kinds of corpses.

Not to mention that in the underground corpse vault of this building, there are still many corpses that have been stored for a long time, but have been unsolved, because the case has not been solved and has not been cremated for various reasons.

Forensic doctors and doctors both have to face death, the difference is that forensic doctors are faced with unnatural death, in folk parlance, this is a horizontal death, in many nonsense, the forensic doctor's dissection room, especially the dissection room connected to the corpse storage storehouse, that is the place where yin qi and resentment are the heaviest.

Li He didn't dare to say that he didn't believe in ghosts and gods, after all, what he encountered could not be explained by common sense. Rebirth can be said to be a crossing of the soul, and perhaps spiritual energy can be transferred in the case of space-time distortion, such an explanation involves many scientific dimensions, of course, it can also be a little more troublesome, and it can be explained with divine power.

If there are gods, then there are ghosts.

Li He didn't know that he could still think so unreasonably about these things at this time, whether to cry or laugh, but when he clearly realized that in this forensic building at three o'clock in the morning, his back was cold for a while, and he felt that he was already extraordinary if he was not scared to pee on the spot.

You probably can't run away, if it's really a ghost, you use it to float, and running is also for nothing.

So, after taking a deep breath, Li He decided to turn around and face it.

No matter what he will see, Li He feels that with his experience, there is nothing that cannot be faced.

However, when Li He gritted his teeth, held his breath, and turned around in a decisive mood, he realized that he was thinking too much. Behind him stood a man, indeed a man, and nothing else...... It's Lao Zhangtou, the doorman who lives at the entrance of the corridor on the first floor of the archives department all the year round. Although Li He basically has no dealings with Lao Zhangtou, he has been in the archives department for many years, and Lao Zhangtou's face is also very familiar.

How old is Lao Zhangtou, no one can say this, anyway, when there was a forensic building, he was already a doorman here, he was not only the doorman of the archives department, but also the doorman of the entire forensic building, but he just lived in the corridor of the archives department. Some people say that before the forensic building was built, he worked as a janitor in the former provincial forensic center, and now the boss of the forensic system of the provincial department does not have him to stay in this system for long.

I can't tell how old he is, it's because his facial age characteristics are not obvious enough, say he's seventy or eighty years old, he doesn't look that old, but he can be said to be only fifty or sixty years old, and he doesn't feel so young, that face is a standard Chinese face, the skin and flesh of both cheeks are a little sagging, there is no beard, and I don't know if he shaves a lot, or if he has very little beard.

If you look closely, there are a lot of age spots on his face, but the teeth are not bad, if it is not dentures, it is really neat, and the eye sockets are deeply sunken, but those eyes do not have the feeling of old eyes faint at all. When he looks at people, his eyes are still so incomprehensible.

But the most exaggerated thing is his white hair, a little long, like an old lady's ear-length hair, but the front half of the scalp is bare, this hairstyle has to be in the old movie, the kind of braid in the early years of the Republic of China. In this way, his age is even more suspicious, he can't just catch up with the fashion and get such a hairstyle, right?

The old face is expressionless, and the expressionless face is sometimes the most special expression.

"Uncle, you're scared to death of me. Li He breathed a sigh of relief, although he didn't like this eccentric old man very much in his heart, but the necessary politeness should still be there, this old man Zhangtou's age was no longer than his father, and he didn't suffer a loss by calling Uncle Sheng. In fact, he was still very puzzled, because he clearly remembered that he had locked the door, even if Lao Zhangtou had the key to every room, there would always be a sound when opening the door.

Of course, it may be that I am too focused, maybe, in short, it is more reasonable to explain it this way.

"What are you looking for?" asked the old man lightly. When he spoke, his voice was quite calm, and although it was not kind, at least it was not as hairy as his eyes on people...... The point is that he likes to look at the open space next to people, not now, he is looking at Li He.

Li He shrugged his shoulders and said, "Check some information, you know, I am the person who works the most overtime in the archives department, and many times I don't know when my work will be finished." By the way, when I came here just now, I saw the door in the stairwell open, did you forget to close the door when you went to the dissection room?"

Lao Zhangtou said, "If you want to find a shortcut, you might as well go in and have a look." ”

Li He smiled and said, "That's not necessary, first, I don't want to go to the dissection room from the bottom of my heart, and second, even if I want to go, I can go around the outside of the forensic building, it is good for young people to walk more." Where does that door lead?"

Lao Zhangtou still said expressionlessly: "If you want to know, go and see for yourself." ”

Li He waved his hand and said, "Then you don't need to." By the way, is there something wrong? Do you want me to make you a cup of coffee?" as he spoke, he took out a pack of cigarettes from his body and handed one to Lao Zhangtou.

Fortunately, although the old Zhang's teeth are neat, he has long been black and yellow, and he looks like an old smoker, so when he took Li He's cigarette, Li He was also greatly relieved, as long as a person is not the kind of person who does not eat fireworks in the world, there is always a breath of life.

Lao Zhangtou naturally held the cigarette, and Li He naturally lit a cigarette for him, and after taking a deep breath, Lao Zhangtou said, "I'm fine, but I think you're okay." ”

No matter how this sounds, it sounds like a pun, Li He didn't want to play with an old man who seemed to be a little blurred in age, so he asked directly: "Uncle Zhang, if you have anything to say, just say it directly, my brain is not good, and I can't guess anything if I have to guess." ”

Lao Zhang looked at him and said, "Lock the door when you leave, don't lose anything." ”

Li He smiled and said, "I will." ”

Although Lao Zhangtou looks a little weird, he doesn't look like a master in the world, especially the old smoking gun when smoking, which is very down-to-earth. So Lao Zhangtou didn't talk much about what made him think too much, which made Li He breathe a sigh of relief.

So watching Lao Zhangtou turn around and pull the door and walk out, when he pulled the door, there was no sound from the door, Li He couldn't remember if it had always been like this, but this could explain why Lao Zhangtou appeared behind him He didn't know, and that was enough. was also relaxed, and Li He said, "Don't worry, Uncle Zhang, I won't lose anything." ”

Lao Zhangtou stopped, turned his head and said, "Don't lose yourself." ”

Li He was stunned.

Lao Zhangtou walked out slowly, and said as he walked: "It doesn't matter if you lose it, in this life, who can tell where you are coming and where you are returning?

Nima: Is this a reminder to me?

Li He was momentarily stunned, he had felt that Lao Zhangtou was down-to-earth, and suddenly even the philosophical proposition of being present and absent was thrown out. If you take out existence and time and stir it up, it will be time for the old man to become Heidegger.

The question is, what is the answer?

Li He didn't ask, but the worst thing was that he didn't know what he should ask. Ask me where I've come from and where I'm going?

I'll go, that's going to be crazy.

But what he encountered was crazy enough, right?

In the end, Li He still didn't ask Lao Zhangtou anything, it was not a way to stay in the forensic building with a cold back for too long, and after staying here for a long time, Li He also found that he was hungry, so he decided to eat first.

I also feel hungry, which means that this is not a dream.

Li He locked the door and walked down to the data room, and when he passed the stairwell on the first floor, Li He couldn't help but glance at the door that felt very cold. This will be closed, so it seems that Lao Zhangtou is really going in and out there, but everyone usually doesn't know it.

When I walked out of the forensic building, it was about four o'clock in the morning, and it was still early in the morning. At this time, if you want to find food, as far as Li He knows, there is only Jixiang Street. It's a real city that never sleeps, and it won't be closed until dawn. Li He drove his broken car with a badly hit trunk to Jixiang Street, ate two large plates of leek dumplings in one go, and then ran to a bathing city across the street from Jixiang Street to take a bath, and then went home to sleep.

As for whether it was time to go to work, Li Hyuk decided to leave it alone. After all, compared to what he experienced, being deducted from his salary for not going to work and being taught a lesson by the leader is too insignificant.

When he went home and opened the door, Li He was puzzled again, he remembered that he was locked when he went out, but now the key only turned around, indicating that someone had opened his door. He has obsessive-compulsive disorder, and he will definitely not leave if the door lock is not locked, so someone must have opened the door, which made Li He very hesitant, he didn't know what he would encounter when he pushed the door in.

However, the forensic building at three o'clock in the morning has been stayed, what is there to dare to face?

So Li He took a deep breath and pushed open the door as if nothing had happened, and at the door, he saw a pair of women's shoes.
