NO.24 Look up and don't see you down
Halfway through the night, the hallway was empty.
Zhou Jiali climbed upstairs a little tiredly. In the past few days, the IELTS course is relatively late, and the family lives far away, so in order to save some fares, I have to carpool with three or four people to come back.
It's not easy to work outside, but she's willing to do it.
She knows that as long as she works hard, there will always be a day when she climbs up. She is young and driven. This time, the company's expatriate exchange quota was almost certain to have her, which made her very excited.
The dawn is just around the corner, so what's the point of being tired?
As long as you go back to soak your feet in hot water, you will get better.
Click, click. The sound of high heels in the silent hallway was particularly abrupt.
But Zhou Jiali is already very used to it, looking up at the flashing emergency lights in the corridor, sighing, the old apartment, and the public facilities are also in retirement.
Holding the book, free up one hand to get the key.
But I couldn't open the door......
Zhou Jiali sighed helplessly, the door lock should also be repaired. Took the key in another hand and tried to open it again. But it still can't be opened.
Zhou Jiali snorted impatiently, thinking that there would be a bonus after this quarter, and she would change to a better house to live in when the time came.
"Need help?" A warm voice came from beside him.
Zhou Jiali smiled: "Thank you, it's old, it's okay." ”
Turning her face, a miserable white face pressed tightly to hers, two bottomless holes in the place of her eyes.
"Wait a minute, you say it's haunted in the middle of the night?" Gu Chengren crawled out of the quilt irritably, and it was rare to get a lazy sleep and be woken up by the phone.
I looked at my watch, and it was less than 7 o'clock.
"There's something wrong with that apartment, you should take a look." The other end of the phone was not asking him to do something at all, it was completely in the tone of an announcement.
Gu Chengren's eyes drifted away: "That place is already out of the city, it's not under my control, okay?" ”
“…… Let's take a trip that has something to do with your recent investigation. After saying it without question, he hung up the phone decisively.
Gu Chengren angrily threw the phone into the quilt and scratched his hair.
Half an hour later, in the elevator, Amore saw Gu Chengren, who was obviously angry.
It is said that it is not good to live close, and you can't see anyone who looks up and looks down...... Amore silently pondered in her heart, should she move back to Sunshine City?
"Teeth, are you feeling better?" Gu Chengren leaned on the handrail of the elevator and asked as if unintentionally.
Amore looked at him and nodded, "Much better, it doesn't hurt at all." ”
Gu Chengren glanced at her: "Stay away from that police~detective." ”
Amore almost choked to death in her throat in one breath, and silently recited ten times in her heart that I was not as knowledgeable as her, and an official smile pulled up on her face: "This has nothing to do with Doctor Gu." ”
Gu Chengren pushed his glasses: "Well, it's okay. Just stay away from him, there's no harm. ”
Wipe it up, you said it's okay to shut up, okay? Who does the old lady meet with and have dealings with you!!
When the elevator reached the first floor, Amore was still swiping the screen in her heart. The otherwise ordinary life can change so much because of an inadvertent sighting. You're all idle and have nothing to do, can't you leave me alone?
was complaining in her heart, and suddenly, Gu Chengren grabbed her.
"Oh yes, that killer, you stay away from him, too."
Amore: ......
Taxis don't usually go to the city, and even if they do, the cost is quite considerable. Gu Chengren looked at the clear sky, hesitated for a moment and went to the underground parking lot.
When I arrived at the address given by Qinglong, there were already many police cars around there.
Gu Chengren shook the key, what a coincidence, he had just warned the girl downstairs to stay away from that police~uncle Cha. In less than two hours, he saw it.
Deng Shichang was investigating the scene of the crime with a gloomy face.
This time it's not a headless murder, the head is still on the neck, but the legs are missing. The most unacceptable thing is that the victim's eyes are gone.
"Ouch, I haven't seen this in years." Gu Chengren squatted next to the corpse and sighed in amazement.
The people around were stunned, when did this person get in?!
"Doctor Gu?" Deng Shichang still remembers Gu Chengren. After all, Gu Chengren's appearance is difficult to forget when he looks back.
Gu Chengren smiled, took out a piece of chocolate from his pocket, tore it open and stuffed it into his mouth.
What a grudge......
"I'm sorry Doctor Gu, this is not a place for you to come in." Deng Shichang asked Ye Jian to send Gu Chengren out of the warning circle.
Gu Chengren didn't say anything, and obediently followed Ye Jian.
Because Zhou Jiali came back late every night, there were no witnesses.
Some of the occupants heard a short cry, and there was no other sound. Originally, this apartment was a bit old, and it was normal to have rats or something. The scream wasn't too loud, and it was immediately stopped, and no one cared.
"There are no surveillance facilities, and there are no 24-hour convenience stores around, which is too far away." Ye Jian reported the information of the visit to Deng Shichang.
Deng Shichang frowned and lowered his head and lit a cigarette, there are too many things this year, and they are not normal methods.
Gu Chengren leaned on the car and looked at the hill behind the apartment from a distance.
Since ancient times, there have been many incidents in places where there are mountains and rivers, not only here is the living area where people compete with each other, but more often the mountains and rivers and dense forests are a good cover for killing people's lives.
Daytime...... I can't find anything, so I'll come back in the evening...... It's annoying......
Gu Chengren folded Fang Cai's chocolate wrapper into a paper crane, raised his fingers, and blew lightly on his lips. As if it had come to life, the paper crane flew up.
"Keep an eye on it, report something." Gu Cheng got into the car without looking back and went back to the city.
In the past few days, Amore has been going out unusually often, and she is really forced to do so. There were people from other families who were stockpiling food in the city where she lived, and she couldn't turn a blind eye no matter what.
Vampires also have a geographical boundary, although she is the only one left in her family at the moment, but there are still people in the family, and it is absolutely impossible to let the people of other families break the balance of their lives lightly.
Pansy...... Amore sighed, she should have been serious when she studied when she was a child, her father didn't give her a lecture, what flowers are whose house, but she was greedy for fun at that time, except for reading comics, reading novels and watching movies, her small study was full of graphic novels, and she never asked about the affairs of the family.
If it weren't for her parents' funeral, she wouldn't have known that so many people in her family were hidden in the city.
Suddenly, the oncoming person couldn't avoid it and hit Amore directly on the shoulder. The take-out drink in his hand flew straight out.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." The other party said apologetically.
Amore clenched her fists, this old-fashioned way of picking up is not used in novels!
The other party raised his head and said with a smile: "I knocked over your drink, I'll accompany you for a drink." ”
Amore was stunned, red eyes?!
