Chapter 6 Gu Carving
Wu Xi almost pushed Cui Minghan into the driver's seat, and then got into the co-pilot as neatly as a rabbit. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info "Drive quickly." The tense nerves made her voice rise a few degrees, startling Cui Minghan, who was confused. What's the matter, didn't you say that the noodle shop was also open at night? "Please, get behind the wheel." Wu Xi's tears were about to come out, because she glanced out of the corner of her eye that the figure had already walked to her car window, and her dark pupils were staring straight at her huddled body.
Seeing such a scene, Cui Minghan finally understood what was going on, so he didn't need Wu Xi to guide him anymore, and rushed out with one foot on the accelerator. In the roar of the engine, the black and shiny car disappeared into the night in an instant, without a trace.
Late at night, City D has been completely stripped of its bustling and noisy coat during the day, and it seems extraordinarily quiet. Cui Minghan drove all the way for 20 kilometers before he came back to his senses. "Did you come along?" He asked Wu Xi in a low voice, while the accelerator under his feet was still stepping on it tightly. "Nope." Wu Xi shrank in her seat and answered him without moving, just when Cui Minghan just ignored what was going on outside the window and was bent on escaping, she had been lying on the back of the chair for a long time to observe, and was sure that the "person" did not follow. But what she couldn't understand was, how could he appear at the door of the police station? Could it be that he has been following him all the way from the Jade Butterfly Bridge? Unlikely, because it seemed that just now he was sure that Wu Xi could indeed see him, so what was the reason for them to meet again? Is it really a coincidence?
"Just now...... What exactly do you see? Cui Minghan parked the car on the side of the road, and although he tried his best to suppress it, Wu Xi could still hear the fear hidden in his voice.
"Don't be scared if you know."
"Of course I'm afraid."
"Do you want to know?"
"That's it."
His straightforwardness made Wu Xi feel very cute, and his nervous mood relaxed a lot. "Get out of the car and take a walk, look at you sweating profusely, but you don't look like Director Cui who saved the beauty of the hero just now." "You say you're a beauty, but you don't see that you're quite confident." The two joked with each other and got out of the car, and the moment they saw the scene in front of them, Wu Xi was stunned: "This ...... Where is it? "I'll take a look, oh, there's a sign, Jade Butterfly Bridge."
"****," Wu Xi scolded vigorously in his heart, and his feelings soared all the way to the nest. She was afraid of scaring Cui Minghan, so she called him as calmly as possible: "Director, I suddenly feel hungry, let's go eat noodles first." "I didn't expect this city to be completely different at night and during the day, it's a completely different scene, Wu Xi, come and see, the water here is so beautiful, it looks quite wide." Cui Minghan didn't hear Wu Xi's words at all, and went all the way up along the embankment, and he was about to walk to the side of the Weishui River. A warm hand suddenly grabbed him, Cui Minghan turned his head and met Wu Xi's eyes, her eyes were as bright as stars. "Let's go, it's windy in here, and I think it's a little cool." How could he refuse, at this moment, even if there was a sea of gold and silver in front of him, he would resolutely put it down and leave with her.
Wu Xi wanted to withdraw the hand that was holding him, but found that he had gently held her palm, she couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, it was not to continue to pull him, nor to break free, so the two could only hold hands and stand still.
"Quack ......" suddenly came a terrible cry from behind him, like a baby and some unknown water bird, followed by a sound of falling water, startling the two people standing on the river embankment. Could it be that someone has stumbled and fallen overboard? Wu Xi and Cui Minghan glanced at each other, hurriedly ran up the river embankment, turned on the flashlight on their mobile phones, and looked at the river surface carefully. But before their eyes, there was nothing but the black river.
Wu Xi felt a little more flustered for no reason, I don't know why, there was a cool breeze here just now, but now there is no trace of the wind, and the moon also hid in the clouds as if he was afraid of something. In front of them, there was only the quiet abnormal water, so quiet that one couldn't help but wonder if there was some unspeakable secret hidden beneath it. And at the bottom left of the embankment is the passage bridge where the man died. Wu Xi stared at it, always feeling as if something was going to be drilled out of the black bridge hole. "Let's go, let's go." She whispered to Cui Minghan, and the two trotted all the way across the river embankment, got into the car and prepared to leave.
The car started slowly, "It's windy, this gust of wind is so strong, it may rain." Cui Minghan shouted excitedly, Wu Xi looked out the window, and sure enough, the willow tree next to the car was flying like crazy, and the road that was clean just now actually raised a lot of sand and dust on the ground, making it impossible to see out the window. Let's breathe, it's stuffy in this car. With that, Cui Minghan went to press the window button.
"Don't open the window." Wu Xi suddenly yelled at him, so frightened that he stopped opening the window. Wu Xi herself didn't know why, since just now, the panic in her heart has accumulated more and more, and it has become thicker and thicker, drowning her heart like a tide. Night, water, bridges, car windows, dim light outside the car, she tried to connect the words, but she was always interrupted by something, all she knew was that the situation that day was almost exactly the same as it is now.
"Hurry up...... Get out of here. This is the second time she scared Cui Minghan tonight, but the more panicked she became, the more she was in a hurry, Cui Minghan actually turned off the car that had started again, and then put it in the wrong gear several times. At this critical juncture, Wu Xi saw a figure slowly walking towards them from the dust, getting closer and closer. Her heart was half cold, she could only stare at him intently, her brain was blank, and it wasn't until the visitor gently knocked on the car window that she lost her voice and shouted: "Xu Xing, it's Xu Xing." ”
"Didn't you say let me deal with it, why do you have to follow me on your own?" Xu Xing looked at the person in the car who was looking at him with a surprised face. "Oh, that's ......" "Forget it, it's not good to stay here, let's go back first." "Go back? Where are you two going? Cui Minghan asked Wu Xi with a question mark on his face, "Back?" Return? When I returned to the unit, the director just said that there was an emergency that required us to rush the manuscript overnight. ”
On the way home, Wu Xi told Xu Xing about the fact that she went to help the Lin sisters meet that person again, and finally she asked, "He seems to be interested in me, why is this?" Do you want me to help him find the body? Or find out the murderer? ”
"I can't rule out this reason, and maybe he still has something unfinished in the world."
"The cleaner said that he seemed to be in a hurry to do something before he died, and it seems that due to his accidental death, this matter was not completed, and it should be this thing that made him unwilling to enter reincarnation. By the way, what did you find today? Xu Xing took out something from his pocket and put it in Wu Xi's hand. What is it? A long black feather appeared in her hand, so frightened that Wu Xi almost lost it.
"The feathers of the Gu eagle."
