Chapter 2: Bloody Night
Wu Xi dragged the luggage she packed last night to work, and the real estate agent has not replied yet, so she decided to stay in a hotel today, and if there is no suitable house, she will lower her standards and share it with others. Lu Wu, the www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun", followed her all the way to the bus stop, and many people pointed at her along the way: Hey, I've only seen a dog walker, but I haven't seen a cat walker, this cat is really sensible.
In the office, classmate Ding Ding looked at Wu Xi with infinite pity: "My dear, otherwise you can go to my place for a few nights, don't worry, I will never force you to sleep." Wu Xi hurriedly raised his hand and surrendered: "You can spare me when you are old, hey, I heard that you and Feifei from the advertising department have lived together, and the sample is progressing quickly enough, and when the newcomer is training, I feel that something is wrong with your eyebrows." Ding Ding made a silent gesture at Wu Xi, quickly looked back at Xu Xing, and saw that Xu Xing was concentrating on work with headphones, so he leaned into Wu Xi's ear and whispered: "Sister, you almost killed me, our unit doesn't let employees fall in love with each other, but don't worry, it should be okay to talk to the leader, Director Cui is calling for wind and rain in the unit, and the energy is very big." After saying that, he put on an expression that I know about your and returned to his seat, and Wu Xi once again had the urge to strangle Ding Ding.
In the blink of an eye, in the afternoon, Wu Xi saw Xu Xing and Cui Minghan getting off work together, and hurriedly and quietly followed, she was not ready to accept Cui Minghan's "gift", but after listening to Ding Ding's words, she felt that this matter should be resolved as soon as possible. This world is very fair, and getting and giving are always proportional, although Cui Minghan is grateful to her, but Wu Xi is unwilling to let herself have a burden, let alone be gossiped about by others. She followed Cui Minghan until the parking lot with few people before she stopped Cui Minghan, and Wu Xi returned the key to him: "Thank you, Director Cui, but I have already found a house, so I don't need to trouble you." Cui Minghan's bright eyes looked at Wu Xi for a long time, and she was a little hairy, maybe she refused to make him angry so much. If you don't go at night, you won't be able to get there, doesn't it mean that it is fifty kilometers from the city. Xu Xing's voice sounded next to him, and Wu Xi hurriedly answered: "Yes, yes, you hurry up and get down to business, the road is very congested during the rush hour this night." Cui Minghan lowered his head and smiled, turned around and went to the car door. Wu Xi breathed a sigh of relief, and was just about to leave, when he suddenly heard Cui Minghan's panicked voice: "I'll go, what is this." ”
Lu Wu lay on the driver's seat with a big grin, as if he had just been woken up by them from his sleep, it looked at the three people in front of him sleepily, stretched its waist, and began to grind its claws on the fine leather seat.
Wu Xi went from coaxing it, to trying to take it away, until finally scaring it loudly, trying his best to no avail, then Lu Wu only grinded his claws on the driver's seat, seeing that the high-end leather seat had been exposed by it. Wu Xi began to shirk responsibility: Director Cui, I really didn't raise it, that's right, I did stay with it a few times, but it definitely belongs to free-range breeding, and it has nothing to do with me. The more she talked, the more she felt that she was being bypassed and couldn't push it clean. I can only scold in my heart: You kid is really tasteful, pick the most expensive car in the garage for me to catch, how can I afford to pay for it. Cui Minghan didn't feel sorry for the seat, he kept hiding behind Wu Xi and looked at Lu Wu cautiously, "Are you sure it only eats ghosts and not people?" ”
"Wu Xi, get in the car and take a look." Xu Xing, who had been staring at Lu Wu, suddenly spoke, Wu Xi didn't understand what he meant, but instinctively felt that it should be right to listen to him. Sure enough, as soon as she sat down in the co-pilot, Lu Wu jumped on her lap with a meow, Wu Xi was overjoyed, and wanted to get out of the car when he held it, but found that he couldn't hold it no matter what, and even he was pressed by it to move half a step. "What the hell are you trying to make a fuss?" Wu Xi gritted his teeth and stared at its innocent blue eyes. "It seems that Lu Wu wants you to go with him." "Why does it want me to go?" Wu Xi was confused. Cui Minghan stared at her intently: "I want to know too." ”
It was already evening when the group arrived at Songjian Tower, and Wu Xi couldn't help but sigh as soon as he got off the bus: "It's so beautiful." Songjian Tower is not a simple hotel, it is actually a small resort, consisting of a main building and two annexes to the left and right. It is built at the foot of a mountain covered with pine trees, and a clear spring winds its way down the mountain into the pool in front of the main building, which seems to be the origin of its name. In front of the courtyard is the largest reservoir in D City, and when the sun sets, the entire lake is sparkling, and the white buildings seem to be painted with a layer of light orange, showing a warm and peaceful atmosphere. Sitting in the north and facing the south, a good place. Wu Xi doesn't understand feng shui, but the first feeling she has here is comfort, she was worried about coming in the car just now, thinking what kind of gloomy place she was coming.
The owner of the hotel, Qin Zhili, is a Hong Kong person, but because he has lived in the mainland for many years, he speaks Mandarin very well. The main tone of the lobby is also white, with two spiral stairs leading to the restaurant on the second floor, and a painting hanging in the center of the lobby depicts the scene of "the moon shines on the pine stream, and the clear spring stone flows upstream", which matches the name of the hotel.
After Lu Wu arrived at the lobby, he bowed down and jumped out of Wu Xi's arms, looked left and right, and ran down the spiral staircase on the left to the second floor, and disappeared in an instant. Wu Xi just wanted to stop it, but was stopped by Xu Xing: "Let it go, Lu Wu is the best tracker." ”
In the office, after Mr. Qin made tea for them, he frowned and began to reminisce about the past. "Songjian House was bought by me from a state-owned enterprise three years ago, everything was fine at the beginning, as you can see, although this hotel has a certain number of years, but the building is very well maintained, it is said that it was designed and built by designers in Hong Kong, and I only did a simple painting when I took over, and did not make any major changes. Due to its location, we are committed to making it a resort hotel. Maybe I found the right way, and the business has been good since I took over, until that night half a year ago.
I'm a strict person who likes to do everything by himself, and I happened to be in the hotel lobby that night, so I remember it very clearly. It was cold that day and snow was forecasting, so there weren't many guests at the hotel. About ten o'clock in the evening, a guest came, a girl, who looked to be sixteen or seventeen years old, wearing a white woolen coat and black hair, but she looked very beautiful. But what caught my attention was not because she was beautiful, but because her eyes, which always made people feel that something was abnormal, and you couldn't tell what was abnormal, because she also had to answer questions when she checked in, although she said very little, but it didn't look like she had a mental problem.
After checking in, she took the room card upstairs, after the careful recollection I felt something abnormal, she had no luggage, not even a carry-on bag, check-in was from the pocket out of the ID card and credit card, later the police confirmed that this is a forged ID card, the credit card is not her own, of course, this is a later story.
It also happened that I didn't feel sleepy that day, because there were no guests, so I drank red wine in the office. When it was almost twelve o'clock, I suddenly heard the front desk on the evening shift outside shouting that it was snowing, so come out to see the snow. As you know, I'm from Hong Kong, and a lot of my employees are also from Hong Kong, and we Hong Kong people rarely see snow, so we're always excited to see snow, and I also come to the yard to watch the snow with the staff.
The snow that day was very big and beautiful, like an ethereal jade butterfly, flapping its wings and landing on the earth. I was fascinated by the spectacular beauty of nature and looked up intently, but when I looked at it, I felt that something was abnormal, and I noticed that something seemed to be blowing back and forth on the top platform of the main building, like a skirt. Gradually, a figure came out of the darkness of the main building, and slowly climbed up the guardrail, in such a cold weather, she only wore a thin white dress, standing barefoot on the guardrail, her long black hair was blown by the wind to cover her beautiful face.
It was the girl who was staying by herself, and I could vaguely hear what was saying from her mouth, but because the wind was too strong and the distance was so far, I couldn't hear it clearly. Other colleagues also found her, they were all stunned, my alcohol was scared all of a sudden, and quickly signaled the security guard to go to the top floor, while I myself picked up my mobile phone to call the police, but it was too late, the girl seemed to be bent on death, she didn't hesitate, jumped down.
I will never forget that scene, so she jumped on the fountain in front of me, and it was winter, and the fountain ran out of water, so she smashed the base of the fountain. The man fell badly, his head hit the ground first, half of his face was shattered, and blood flowed all over the ground under his body, like a bright red poppy. I was not a bold person in the first place, and when I saw this scene, I wanted to leave, but strangely, I felt that I could not move my steps, and I stood there watching this bloody scene as if I had been lowered.
You know what's wrong, I stared at the rest of her face, and I felt the eyeballs in the remaining sockets staring at me, and then moved, and the lifeless face seemed to float with a smile that I couldn't understand. How is it possible, people have fallen into a puddle of mud and are torn apart.
After speaking, Mr. Qin's voice was hoarse and he laughed dryly: "It's ridiculous, I think it too, but that smile appeared in my dreams again and again, until the second case happened." He picked up the red wine next to him and drank it down.
