14. Darkness
CHAPTER XIV
Early this morning, before Yang Hui got up, Ke Bei sneaked to the hospital like a thief, planning to let the doctor see how her feet were doing, and if they were almost good, then hurry to work. Otherwise, if you stay with Yang Hui like this again, you will have to have something.
When I went to the hospital, it was just after eight o'clock, and when I came back after filming and routine examination, it was almost ten o'clock. The doctor looked at the film and then at Ke Bei's leg, and most of the original terrifying black and purple handprints on it had disappeared.
The doctor nodded and said, "The condition is not bad, you are recovering quite quickly, the cracks in your bones are almost growing, and it will take at least a month for someone else." β
Ke Bei was overjoyed: "Then according to my situation, can I go to work?" β
The doctor said: "It's better not to do it first, and you still have to wear the splint, and pay more attention to it, otherwise the bones will not be well raised, and it will be a lifelong thing." β
Ke Bei took the inspection report and went down to the first floor with some loss, when he heard a loud noise, sometimes mixed with the screams of women. She glanced curiously over there and saw a group of people gathered in the hospital lobby, surrounded by several policemen, one of whom was a middle-aged police officer holding a woman with a cloak.
I saw that the woman was wearing a dusty skirt, sitting on the ground screaming and scratching, and the doctors and nurses around her couldn't step forward if they wanted to, Ke Bei looked at it twice, thinking that it was estimated that it was a medical dispute or something, and it was not uncommon in these years, and she was about to go out, when she suddenly swept a familiar figure out of the corner of her eye.
Ke Bei thought about it, but still walked over, and called out hesitantly: "...... Senior? β
Fang Qinghe turned his head and was also surprised to see Ke Bei, he first explained a few words to a policeman next to him, and then walked over and asked, "Why are you here?" β
"I should have asked you that, right?" Ke Bei lifted her stump leg and said, "I'm here for a follow-up visit, what about you?" β
Fang Qinghe smiled bitterly: "I came with Director Feng of the Marketing Department, send her." As he spoke, he pointed to the woman in the middle who was screaming like crazy.
"What's going on?" Ke Bei was surprised.
Fang Qinghe: "Zeng Liangqing, do you know each other?" β
Ke Bei nodded, she had to know, she almost handed it over to him.
"That woman's name is Shen Mei, and she is his wife."
ββ¦β¦ Wife? is the one who everyone said was abused by Zeng Liangqing before? Ke Bei wondered, "How did she become like that?" β
Fang Qinghe: "It's her, it is said that after Zeng Liangqing's death, Shen Mei's spirit was not very normal, and she had been sent to a psychiatric hospital, but I don't know how she escaped this morning, and she came to our company to make a big noise, and dropped several computers in our company, and there was no choice but to call the police......"
As she was talking, a scream suddenly came from Shen Mei's side, and she only vaguely heard words like "she ran away" and "she has so much strength", and the crowd was even more commotionous, Fang Qinghe glanced over there, and then said: "I'll go over and take a look, you wait for me here for a while" and hurriedly ran over.
Ke Bei was a little uneasy, and she was also a little curious, so she walked slowly over with a cane, intending to see what was going on, but she had just taken two steps, and saw the crowd scattering to both sides, Shen Mei didn't know when she broke free from the police, and actually took a knife to push away the crowd and rushed straight towards Ke Bei!
Ke Bei only heard Fang Qinghe seem to roar: "Beibei, get out of the way!" β
Then the whole person was slammed to the ground!
Shen Mei pressed on Ke Bei's body, her strength was surprisingly great, one hand stuck Ke Bei's throat like an iron hook, she stared at Ke Bei deadly, and then suddenly let out a creepy laugh from her throat: "Giggles, found it, monster!" Kill, kill you! β
Under the scattered hair, Shen Mei's red eyes almost came out of the frame, and the skin tissue around the eyes was even a little torn. After speaking, she looked at Ke Bei's powerless struggle, seemed to be very satisfied with this situation, and let out a strange laugh, and the knife in her other hand was about to be inserted into Ke Bei's eye, and was immediately stopped by the surrounding police.
The police handcuffed her, and Shen Mei pulled her hands and belts out of the handcuffs, with a smile on her face, and Ke Bei suddenly fell into a groove when she saw the mosaic palm.
In the end, there was really no way, and the police could only pull her back by one arm.
From beginning to end, Shen Mei's eyes were directly on Ke Bei, her eyes were full of happiness and gain, resentment and excitement, and when she was pulled away, her neck was twisted into a weird arc, and she turned around and shouted at Ke Bei: "She! That's her! Kill her! Dig it out...... Ha ha! Dig it out! β
It was the first time for Ke Bei to face neuropathy like this, and the whole person was in a state of bewilderment, Fang Qinghe ran over and shouted several times before Ke Bei came back to his senses.
Fang Qinghe looked at her with some worry: "Are you okay?" Can you still get up? β
"No, it's fine." Ke Bei smiled reluctantly, "It's good if you help me." β
Fang Qinghe helped her, "Let's go, I'll take you upstairs to see the doctor, if the foot injury gets worse, it's not good." β
Ke Bei nodded indiscriminately, and continued to maintain a confused appearance and was taken upstairs by Fang Qinghe.
After seeing the doctor, Ke Bei came back to her senses at this time, and she was very embarrassed to thank Fang Qingdao.
Fang Qinghe: "It's okay, I'm frightened, that woman is like that, crazy, smashing the computer while saying that there are monsters living in the computer or something, the expression is very terrifying, many female colleagues in the company were frightened by her, I didn't expect her to hide a knife?!" It's a good thing the police are here, otherwise you might have been injured. β
Ke Bei's expression was a little strange: "...... Monster? β
"If a madman says, if you are serious, you will lose." Fang Qinghe saw that her face was much better, so he stood up and said, "Let's go, it's almost noon, I'll send you home." β
Ke Bei originally wanted to refuse, but seeing that Fang Qinghe naturally pulled her to her feet, she finally closed her mouth and went to the parking lot with him.
On the way back, the two of them were very silent, and seeing that they were about to arrive at the happy community, Ke Bei said stubbornly: "That...... Senior, what happened last time, I'm sorry, Xie Mo is actually not bad, but a little childish...... I apologize to you on his behalf. β
"Oh, it's okay, I didn't take it to heart." Fang Qinghe smiled lightly and said, "But it can be seen that he likes you, you two are together now?" β
"Uh...... No, we've only known each other for a short time. Ke Bei scratched her head in embarrassment.
To be honest, it's quite embarrassing to talk about this kind of relationship problem with Fang Qinghe, although she and Fang Qinghe are nothing, no matter how you say it, after all, they have been ambiguous for many years in college. It's like when you go to a new cake shop to buy pastries and you get bumped into by the owner of the old cake shop you used to go to, and they all laugh at each other and say, "What a coincidence", but in fact, you are really depressed.
Fang Qinghe glanced at Ke Bei, smiled vaguely, and then said in a particularly relaxed tone: "Then I'm luckier than you, I just established a relationship with Team Leader Zhang of your department a few days ago, when you and your one are really together, we can also find time to make an appointment to have dinner together." β
"Huh?" Ke Bei was stunned for a moment, didn't react for a while, nodded subconsciously, and then said sluggishly: "Congratulations, congratulations, it must be." β
When she got out of the car, Ke Bei didn't let Fang Qinghe send her upstairs, and Fang Qinghe didn't insist. Watching the distant car disappear into the hot and dazzling sunlight, Ke Bei knew that something was really going to disappear.
ββββ
Yang Hui stood on the balcony and looked down, the dazzling light made her squint.
The cement worker who came to repair the ceiling climbed down the ladder and asked, "Is this okay?" I sealed the cracks in the wall as well. β
Yang Hui raised her eyes and looked, casually pointed to a corner and said, "Wipe more there." β
"Do you want to wipe it? It's all wiped in a few layers, when it's for the old lady to rub powder......" The cement worker muttered and stepped on the ladder to climb up, and then made a strange "huh", glanced at Yang Hui, and whispered: "The eyes are really sharp, you can see such a small loophole." β
When the cement worker made up the corner, Ke Bei just opened the door and came in, she saw two strange toolboxes thrown on the ground, and walked in to take a look, and found that Yang Hui was talking to a middle-aged man in work clothes.
"What's going on?" Ke Bei walked over and asked.
Yang Hui: "You made an appointment to repair the ceiling two days ago, but you weren't there, anyway, I have the key to your house, so I'll help you open the door and get it." β
Ke Bei remembered that there seemed to be such a thing, but at that time, she was looking for an excuse to go upstairs to tease Xie Mo, but she didn't expect that now she would trouble Yang Hui again, and she suddenly felt a little unhappy in her heart.
"Thank you," Ke Bei said, "how much money, I'll get it right away." β
"I've already given it." Yang Hui sent the cement worker out of the door, then turned around and asked her expressionlessly, "What are you doing this morning?" β
"Uh...... I went to the doctor. Ke Bei said with a little weakness.
Yang Hui: "Then why didn't you answer the call?" β
Ke Bei was even more empty-hearted: "I forgot to bring my phone." β
In fact, I didn't bring it on purpose, because I was afraid that Yang Hui would call.
Yang Hui was silent for a while, just nodded, then pointed to the table, and said, "The lunch is booked for you, remember to eat" and slammed the door without looking back!
Ke Bei was startled by the sound of the door slamming, and after half a sound, she came back to her senses before realizing that Yang Hui was not angry, right? Is it because I went to the doctor in the morning and didn't tell her? Nima, this is too! And it's just to go to the doctor, not to go on a blind date, why do you react so much? Inexplicable.
Ke Bei thought about it, and in the end, she was a little angry, but when she saw the fried rice with peas and bacon that Yang Hui ordered for her to eat her favorite, she subconsciously felt a little guilty in her heart. Ke Bei sighed and sat down on the sofa, glanced at the trash can that seemed to have been thrown two plastic bowls, straightened up and looked, and found that it was actually two bowls of unopened preserved egg and lean porridge - it is estimated that Yang Hui brought it to her in the morning to make breakfast, and she felt even more guilty.
Ke Bei wanted to apologize to Yang Hui, but she was reluctant for a while, she was very sensitive to getting along with Yang Hui now, and felt that it was good to run to apologize for this little thing! Base! Yes!
just went back and forth, and in the afternoon, Yang Hui came to deliver dinner to Ke Bei.
Ke Bei was overjoyed, and was just about to provoke someone to speak. Unexpectedly, Yang Hui didn't say a word this time, just put down the lunch box in his hand and turned around and left, so free and easy that he didn't take a cloud with him.
Ke Bei was stunnedβwouldn't she? Are you so angry?
Wait until nine o'clock in the evening, Ke Bei wants to take a bath at this time, Yang Hui usually comes over to help hand over a piece of clothes and boil water or something, but tonight there is no one to see, Ke Bei finally can't sit still.
After weighing the friendship and basic feelings, Ke Bei gritted her teeth, and slowly moved to the door of Yang Hui's house with a cane, but knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered, and no one answered the mobile phone.
Ke Bei thought to herself that this scene seemed a little familiar, just like ...... Yang Hui was exactly the same on the day she went missing!
Thinking of this, Ke Bei was in a hurry, and he didn't care whether he was based or not, and hurriedly knocked on the door and shouted: "Lao Yang!" Old Yang! At home? β
After waiting for a long time and still no one answered, Ke Bei was so anxious that she was sweating profusely, and was about to go downstairs on crutches to call someone, when she remembered that she still had the key to Yang Hui's house, and hurriedly ran home to get the key to open the door.
As soon as I opened the door, I found that the living room of Yang Hui's house was turned on, the room was quiet, and there was a smell of dust, and the floor on the table was covered with a layer of dust.
Ke Beizheng wondered why Yang Hui didn't pick it up herself, and found that the guest room she lived in before was not closed, and there was a crack half-hidden and half-hidden, and it was dark inside.
Yang Hui said before that she is sleeping in the guest room now, is she asleep?
Ke Bei called "Lao Yang" twice at the door first, and seemed to hear a slight noise from inside, Ke Bei was overjoyed, and pushed the door and walked in without thinking too much.
Before she could take two steps, she saw a strong rancid smell rushing towards her, the smell was like a heat wave, and it was like a real cover on Ke Bei's face, making her limbs numb and her face blue, so she could only quickly cover her nose with her hands.
it! How long has it been since Yang Hui cleaned her room?!
The room was empty.
The lights of thousands of homes in the community came in through the windows, illuminating the entire space with a faint outline, which was exactly the same as when she first moved out, not to mention Yang Hui, except for a bed frame, not even a mattress and bedding.
At this moment, there was another sound of a rope in the corner, Ke Bei was startled, and moved to the side, and her foot seemed to kick something, heavy, rubbing against the floor to make a very wet and dull sound, which was a bit like that thick diving suit.
β¦β¦ Wetsuit?
Ke Bei squatted down and looked at the pile of things with some curiosity, it was too dark to see clearly, and then touched it, it was a little soft to the touch, and greasy, a bit like ......
Pig skin?
Ke Bei was embarrassed for a moment, and then changed the angle, letting the light at the door shine in, and the incandescent light in the living room hit the thing, reflecting the fine fluff on it, and some yellow-white fat layer sticking near the edge, Ke Bei finally saw clearly, this was not a diving suit at all......
It is a human skin.
Yang Hui's human skin.
Ke Bei was immediately scared to pee, and ran out with a scream of "ah" and cried like a fool, and when she ran downstairs, the people walking around her were all startled by Ke Bei, and they enthusiastically came over to ask "What's wrong?"
Ke Bei cried breathlessly: "I have a ...... for the door Dead person...... Yang Hui's human skin...... Woohoo......"
After a while, the security guards came, and several security guards first went up to the eighth floor together, but they suddenly scolded Ke Bei and covered her face: "Girl, are you looking away?" Aren't you kind to the door, see how much people care about you, and they even ran down to pick you up. β
I saw Yang Hui wearing pajamas, following the security guard intact, and said with a smile: "Uncle, she is quarreling with me and joking, I'm sorry." β
The security guard scolded Ke Bei and taught Ke Bei two more sentences, no matter how much Yang Hui was scolded, he accepted it for Ke Bei, and his attitude was very sincere from beginning to end, especially low and small, and when everyone dispersed in the end, Yang Hui looked at Ke Bei's broken elbow in distress, and said: "Why are you so anxious, what if the foot injury gets worse?" β
Ke Bei withdrew her hand with a look of horror.
Yang Hui pinched her cheeks, then hugged her ass again, and shook it very comfortingly, saying, "Don't be afraid, let's go back to sleep, okay?" β
The last question was like blowing in Ke Bei's ear, creepy.
Ke Bei had a feeling that if she didn't agree, she would die immediately and have no place to be buried, so in the end she could only stiffen up and nodded, and then sobbed and shivered, and was carried upstairs by Yang Hui.
