Chapter 38: The Buddha-figure

"Then let's go, let's go now, are the two of us responsible for investigating which places and which people, and the scope has been demarcated?" He Ning turned around and picked up the house key from the small cabinet on the side, simply changed his shoes and went out, turned around and locked the door, and asked Tang Li about the next thing while locking the door.
Tang Li nodded: "Yes, Yang Xiaohui's home is not local, so the two of us will focus on places like railway stations and passenger stations, including some taxi carpooling points that specialize in carpooling at fixed locations for short distances." Tang Hongye and his group went to the place where Yang Xiaohui rented a house, as well as the school, and two other groups of people were responsible for investigating the necessary way back to the city from the farmhouse, to see if they could find any clues, such as what vehicles picked up Yang Xiaohui and left within the range of surveillance camera shooting, or Yang Xiaohui had wanted to hitchhike on the side of the road, in short, we can't let go of any possibility, no matter what, we must find out Yang Xiaohui as soon as possible, so far, it is said that she has nothing to do with the mysterious person in the chemical protection suit we are investigating, and she has no idea, and I am afraid that no one will believe it, otherwise she would not have left in a hurry after we found the doorใ โ
"Yes," He Ning nodded, she followed Tang Li and quickly went downstairs, "I chose to run to the farmhouse and not leave, I'm afraid it wasn't that I was confused about my life goal, most of it was arranged to hide there deliberately, so as to create a false impression that she was missing, so that we have been wasting time on this matter! Now that we have discovered her traces, she immediately fled, what do you want to do next?"
Tonic didn't speak, because the question raised by He Ning was also the biggest question in his heart at this moment, he had never encountered this kind of person who thought he was the victim in the past, but the hair was undamaged, and he fled quickly after the police came to the door, what does this mean behind it, and what other conspiracy is hidden, it is the same for Tonic There is no past experience to use as an analogy, and now he is also confused, he only hopes to find Yang Xiaohui's whereabouts as soon as possible, so that he can be sure of her safety, and secondly, he can get answers to these questions from herใ
After the two of them got on the train, they immediately set off to the train station to inquire whether there was such a person as Yang Xiaohui to buy train tickets from other places in the past, because the train ticketing system has been relatively formalized, so the investigation was relatively smooth, and soon the station gave a conclusion, not to mention just now, even Yang Xiaohui has not had a ticket purchase record in the recent period, unless she has a fake identity document, and the fake card also needs to be real enough to swipe out the corresponding identity information at the entrance of the train station, otherwise it can only explain one problem-- Yang Xiaohui hasn't traveled by train for a long time.
Then He Ning and Tang Li came to the passenger station again, and it was much more troublesome to investigate at the passenger station, and the passenger station also needed to use ID cards to book tickets in principle, but because the system has not been formalized, this requirement is not strict, and any excuse can be found to avoid the alleviation of showing ID cards, and successfully buy tickets. There was no way, the two of them had to take Yang Xiaohui's photos one by one to ask the ticket sales staff and ticket inspectors from the morning to the present, and asked if any of them had ever seen someone suspected of Yang Xiaohui to take the bus, after some identification, a lot of time was wasted, and the final result was still that no one recognized Yang Xiaohui, although it was not 100% certain, but in this way, the possibility of Yang Xiaohui leaving from the passenger station was mostly ruled out.
After that, Thorn and Hening began to travel to several well-known taxi pooling points within the city, which was even more time-consuming, because those carpooling points were located in different places, and they were all spontaneously formed by some taxi drivers, and they were not planned, so the flow of people was greater, and the accuracy of the information that could be obtained from there was even more difficult to determine.
He Ning was called by Tonic at noon, and she had a headache since she woke up, she had endured it, but in the afternoon, after some tossing, her headache began to get worse, she felt as if a crack had opened in her skull, and her brain grew a heart, which was pounding and beating, as if it wanted to emerge from the crack in the skull.
Originally, He Ning still tried her best to endure it, but then the severe headache caused stomach discomfort, which made her stomach turn upside down, and finally couldn't help it, when Tonic stopped to ask a few taxi drivers about the situation, she covered her mouth and ran to the open space on the side and vomited, simply because the two of them had not been free to eat before, and her stomach was already empty, so she didn't vomit anything except sour water. Tang Li was also taken aback when he saw this, He Ning never said that he had a headache and stomach discomfort, although his face was indeed not very good, and Tang Li also felt that it might be related to the bad rest of the previous day, and now seeing that she vomited, he hurriedly ran over to inquire about the situation.
The taxi drivers also came around, and one of them enthusiastically took Huoxiang and gave it to He Ning.
"Is this girl suffering from heat stroke? It's enough to stand it on this hot day!" The driver said to Tonic Li, "Give her some medicine, drink something cool, and find a cool place to rest!" Alas, it's not easy for this little girl to come out and be a policeman, everyone else is blowing the air conditioner in the house, and she is basking in the sun outside. โ
"Yes," said one of the people next to him, "Well, I'll help you ask the others in our convoy when you go back, and everyone will help you inquire, and if anyone really has carried that woman, they can probably ask too, and you can just wait for the letter." โ
These drivers originally did not have such a high enthusiasm for participation, relatively speaking, they can be regarded as a relatively passive state, but now seeing He Ning like this, the degree of cooperation has also increased. Tang Li thanked them, helped He Ning back to the car, and after asking, he knew that He Ning was not suffering from heat stroke, but a severe headache, so he drove her to a nearby pharmacy, first bought her a little painkiller to relieve it, He Ning took the medicine, and after a while the medicine took effect, her original explosive pain slowly became a little relieved, she closed her eyes and leaned on the back of the chair and slept in a daze.
This sleep time is not long, but it is very uncomfortable, because He Ning had a nightmare, she dreamed that she was sitting at home, and suddenly heard someone knocking on the door, so she went over to open the door, as soon as the door opened, Yang Xiaohui stood outside, He Ning had not forgotten his duties and current tasks in the dream, so he asked Yang Xiaohui with a little dissatisfaction why she suddenly ran away, and where she went after leaving the farmhouse.
Yang Xiaohui didn't speak, just looked at her, and only spoke after a while, her voice sounding dry and astringent, as if scratching a blackboard with her fingernails made people feel uncomfortable.
"I hurt so much...... I hurt so much...... It hurts......" she muttered, her eyes glazed over.
"What does it hurt you, where does it hurt?" He Ning asked her with a frown, "How can I help you if you don't tell me." โ
"I hurt...... I was in pain...... It hurts too much......" Yang Xiaohui still emphasized that she didn't have any emotion, and her whole person began to tremble, like sifting chaff.
The more she trembled, the more she trembled, the more she trembled, He Ning thought to herself, if she continued to shake like this, might it be that even the bones would be shaken apart! This thought had just popped up, and Yang Xiaohui had really changed over there.
I saw that a lot of cracks suddenly appeared on her whole body, and as she trembled, those cracks became bigger and bigger, more and more, and finally with a bang, a big living person who was still standing in front of He Ning became a piece of fragments, large and small, miscellaneous, as if she had been pieced together like that. Her head fell as her body fell apart, rolled to the side of the stairs, and stopped there in a precarious position, still with her eyes wide open, looking at He Ning with a cloak of hair, her eyes were like dead fish, completely unfocused.
"It hurts...... It hurts......" her mouth still murmured.
He Ning woke up suddenly, sat up straight from his seat, and his heart was beating wildly in his chest.
"What's wrong?" Tang Li was startled by He Ning's sudden sit-up movement, and hurriedly asked her.
He Ning shook his head gently: "It's okay, I had a nightmare, I dreamed that Yang Xiaohui was dead." โ
"It's just a dream, does your head still hurt?" Tonic asked with a smile of concern as he smiled at her.
He Ning found that the painkillers she had taken before really worked, and now her head didn't hurt at all, but the nightmare she had just now was really a little scary, and even when she woke up, she still felt a little palpitating.
After the headache stopped, He Ning's whole person became energetic, and she ran a few places with Tang Li, and did not return to the bureau until eight or nine o'clock in the evening to have a meeting with others, fortunately, there were still people at those carpooling points very late, so they had a lot more time to check a few more places.
After tossing all day, He Ning and Tang Li can be said to have found nothing, they pinned their hopes on several other groups of people, expecting them to bring back a little valuable clue, but the disappointing thing is that the others have not gained anything for the time being, there is still no news of Yang Xiaohui from the school, Yang Xiaohui's rented room has not been back for many days, and the other three girls who shared a house with her are also anxious to find her everywhere, because their house is about to expire, Yang Xiaohui has not appeared, several of them want to rent another house to live, and they don't live here, Yang Xiaohui is going to stay or notThey couldn't ask an answer, so they were also very anxious. Tang Hongye, who went over there to inquire about the situation, said that Yang Xiaohui's room was very tidy, and everything looked in order, without a trace of haste, but it could also be clearly seen that no one had come back to live there in recent times.
Because it is difficult to check on the road, although there is no harvest yet, but because the progress is not yet halfway through, this leaves a glimmer of hope for the big guys.
Taking the opportunity of this meeting, He Ning and Tang Li also met for the first time the three people that Tang Hongye had been bringing with them recently, one of their new colleagues, and two seconded policemen.
The two people who were temporarily seconded were a man and a woman, the man was of medium stature, with a round head and a round head, and he looked like a very clever person, while the woman was very quiet, and she had never spoken from beginning to end, and it was easy to forget that she was there if she was not careful, as if she was a transparent person.
Of course, what caught He Ning and Tang Li's attention the most was Tang Hongye's childhood sweetheart, this was the first time they saw her true face of Lushan after hearing about this strong woman countless times, before Tang Hongye's description, she was almost described as a ghost with three heads and six arms, a green face and fangs, or a dominatrix with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and a cross-faced face.
Tang Hongye's childhood sweetheart's name is Cuckoo, which is different from what Tang Li and He Ning imagined before. Tang Li thought that she would be a more shrewd and powerful character, and He Ning remembered that he had seen the senior sister who had to strive to be the best in everything he saw in C City, so he naturally thought that Du Juan should be a tall, heroic, and resolute person.
As a result, when they saw the cuckoo himself, they couldn't help but be stunned.
The policewoman in front of them doesn't look like Tang Hongye described, even if she tries to remove all the parts processed by Tang Hongye's owner's view, there is still a big gap.
The cuckoo looks like a gentle and gentle, harmless little sheep, medium height, medium build, white skin, a round face with a little baby fat, big eyes, and two small dimples on the cheeks, no matter how you look at it, it is the appearance of a sweet girl.
Although He Ning was a little depressed by Yang Xiaohui's disappearance, he still couldn't help but feel that Tang Hongye was making a fuss, this feeling was like he kept saying that he was chased by a white-fronted tiger with hanging eyes and scared to run around and hide, but when the deity showed his true face, it was a little milk cat, which was really shocking, and he couldn't help but feel that Tang Hongye's performance was a little less graceful.
However, she didn't waste too much thought on this matter, Yang Xiaohui was still nowhere to be found, and He Ning couldn't help but think of the nightmare she had that made people get goosebumps, and there was a faint uneasiness in her heart.
