Chapter 8: The So-Called Truth
Wu Xi turned his head and ran, groping in his bag for his self-defense weapon - horns as he ran. The pen is www.biquge.info strange, why is it missing, she has obviously kept it in her bag and never taken it out, how can she not find it? Did it fall into the unit?
But before she could think about it, the black shadow behind her with the smell of blood suddenly rushed in front of her, standing motionless, staring at her with straight eyes. "Why me?" His voice was soft, and he disappeared as soon as he was caught in the wind. "Why?" He walked towards Wu Xi step by step, his face was blurred with flesh and blood, making it impossible to see his original appearance, and his body was even more exposed to the white bones, without an inch of intact skin, as if the flesh had been removed by something.
Wu Xi slowly retreated while observing the surrounding situation, it was late at night, and there was no one she could turn to on the entire street. She picked up a dead branch and held it in front of her, hoping to raise some white fireworks out of thin air like the last time she had met a ghost in the elevator, but no matter how she swung it, the dead branch was still just a dead branch, and there was no intention of changing it except that it was about to break in two pieces by her force.
The black shadow was getting closer and closer to her, and Wu Xi had no choice but to run to a nearby door and tap the door with all his strength: "Is there anyone?" Help me, help me. She slapped it dozens of times, but the wooden door didn't move, and there should be no one in the house. It's over, Wu Xi's mind is blank, and now, she has cut off all her back roads, in front of her is the ghost figure that is getting closer and closer, and behind her is a wooden door that never seems to open. She closed her eyes, tears sliding down the corners of her eyes: "Xu Xing, Xu Xing, where are you?" ”
"Squeak", the wooden door behind Wu Xi opened suddenly, and she stumbled inside. In the room of the black hole, Sister Liu stood at the door with a plastic woven bag in her hand, and looked at Wu Xi with empty eyes: "What are you doing here?" ”
Wu Xi raised her head, the black shadow disappeared, and in front of her eyes, there was only the empty path she had to pass through every day and the dead leaves all over the ground that were blown down by the wind.
"I seem to have been followed just now, so I knocked on your door, and I'm sorry to wake you up so late." Wu Xi lied, she glanced at the bag in Sister Liu's hand, "Are you going out?" ”
Sister Liu ignored her and walked out with the bag on her own.
"What's in this bag?" Wu Xi suddenly panicked for no reason.
"Bones." With that, she walked towards the garbage dump. Wu Xi looked at her back, but didn't have the courage to catch up and find out.
In the early morning, there was still a long queue in front of the door of "Du Ji", Wu Xi stood far away and looked at the stall, sure enough, the young man who helped was not there, and Sister Liu was not there, only Boss Du was sweating profusely.
Wu Xi waited for the people in line to walk up to buy baked cakes, she pretended to be casual and asked, "Boss, why didn't you see the guy who helped a few days ago today?" ”
"He, there's something going on during this time, so I'm on leave." He replied as he put meat in the pancakes.
"Oh, what about Sister Liu? Why don't you come to help, see what keeps you busy like this? ”
"She hasn't fully recovered yet, so I'll let her sleep a little longer." Boss Du touched his head a little shyly and smiled, and then handed the baked cake to Wu Xi, "It's the same old look, half fat and half thin." ”
Wu Xi said thank you, took the baked cake and walked to the station. As she passed by the garbage dump, she threw away the meaty pancakes, which made her feel sick. The resentful spirit I met last night, although his face was blurred and unrecognizable, but through his body, he could still see his approximate appearance before his death, wasn't he the one who had only been a helper in Boss Du's family for a few days? And the deep bone wounds on his body are not the scars that can only be caused by the bone dismantling knife. Today, as she expected, he is missing, where did he go? What was in the plastic woven bag that Sister Liu pulled last night? Should she tell Boss Du all this? Can he afford the truth of the matter? Would he choose to shield her or something else?
Wu Xi just thought about it all the way to the door of the unit. "What do you want to be so engrossed?" Her back was slammed, and she turned her head to see Cui Minghan standing behind her with a grin.
"Good morning, Director."
"If I'm not mistaken, you're getting caught up in something again, aren't you?" Cui Minghan looked at her with a little disgust.
"yes, so I'm not going to be a living person now, and you'd better stay away from me." Wu Xi gave him a blank look.
"Just kidding," Cui Minghan patted her on the shoulder, "What's upset?" Maybe I can help you. ”
"Director, what would you do if you found that the people closest to you had changed, become unrecognizable and not at all what they used to be?"
Cui Minghan put down the coffee that was brought to his mouth, "Do you know how Wei Wei and I met?" I lost my wallet on the plane that day, and just as I was at a loss, a girl stopped me from behind and brought me my wallet. At that time, I thought that this short-haired girl was really a rare good girl with a pure heart, so I secretly had feelings for her. But later, after a year of contact, I learned that the reason why she had been looking for an hour and brought me the wallet was only because it was a limited edition of Bulgari, and her target was not the card and money inside, but the owner of the wallet. ”
"I was distressed when I first found out what she was, but to put it more precisely, it should be contradictory. Because I found that the person I loved was just the person I imagined, not the person next to me, I didn't know whether to love her or hate her when facing her every day. This ambivalence made me depressed all day long, until one day she told me that she was in love with a rich second generation and was leaving me, I suddenly felt that I at least knew what to do next, although the days of the breakup were very painful and difficult, but it was really over and passed, and it did not cause substantial harm to myself. Therefore, facing the truth is always the first medicine to heal. Cui Minghan stopped, "But Wu Xi, why are you asking me this?" ”
Wu Xi looked into his eyes, "Thank you, Director, you are really the smartest person in the world, I think I know what to do." ”
