Chapter 52: The Strange Man Luo Taiping
Lao Zheng has been a criminal policeman for most of his life, and in the morgue of the second floor, Lao Zheng should come here often.
However, Lao Zheng also seemed to be a little nervous, walking in front of Zhou Xiaolong, and kept his eyes open.
Walk down the narrow, long hallway to the innermost point, where there is a larger room with a sign that reads: "Mortuary Caretaker's Office".
Lao Zheng took a deep breath, glanced back at Zhou Xiaolong, and whispered, "This is it." ”
Zhou Xiaolong nodded, raised his hand and was about to knock on the door.
Lao Zheng hurriedly grabbed Zhou Xiaolong's hand and whispered: "Luo Taiping is a bit strange, not only does he look weird, but his temper is even stranger, if he doesn't like what he says, you must not raise the bar with him, let alone quarrel with him, Mr. Xiao, is it okay?" ”
Zhou Xiaolong continued to nod, "Uh-huh, I understand. ”
Lao Zheng smiled bitterly, and felt for a while on the pale iron door, and finally touched a small button, a small device similar to a doorbell.
I pressed it, and there was a strange sound from inside the doorbell.
Zhou Xiaolongtou heard it once, but if you have watched the TV series "Strange Tales from Liaozhai", you will probably be familiar with that weird tone.
Especially that kind of sound, after hearing it, it will give people goosebumps all over the body.
“…… Who is it? ”
There was a question from the room, and the tone was very strange, so to speak, without any emotion.
"Luo Taiping, it's me, I'm Lao Zheng?"
"What for?"
"You open the door first, I'll talk to you, don't be sluggish!"
After waiting for a long time, the door in front of me slowly opened.
Through the crack in the door, a face was revealed, only a narrow one, and the skin was very pale.
The pale-faced man glanced at Lao Zheng and turned his gaze to Zhou Xiaolong.
In an instant, Luo Taiping's eyebrows rose.
Lao Zheng was anxious, he pushed the door open vigorously, and Zhou Xiaolong saw the person standing in the room.
This Luo Taiping is very thin, skinny, and very tall, like a bamboo pole, from the point of view of his figure, he does look like the mysterious man on the roof last night.
It's just that Luo Taiping didn't wear a fur hat on the top of his head.
However, it is worth mentioning that Luo Taiping's hairstyle is also very weird, he doesn't have much hair, but he keeps it relatively long, and combs a very thin braid at the back of his head, which looks like a pig's tail.
Zhou Xiaolong also stared at Luo Taiping for a long time, but unfortunately, that night, it was too dark.
Moreover, at that time, Zhou Xiaolong's mind was on the evil body, and his mind was very nervous, and he didn't pay too much attention to what the mysterious man's face looked like.
If you look at it in terms of figure, it is very close to Luo Taiping, whether it is really Luo Taiping, Zhou Xiaolong has no bottom in his heart.
Lao Zheng found that Zhou Xiaolong and Luo Taiping were staring at each other and looked at each other for a long time.
Lao Zheng was very strange, so he asked, "Hey, you two know each other, don't you?!" ”
Luo Taiping stretched out a hand, hooked his finger towards Zhou Xiaolong, and said without emotion: "You come in, I want to talk to you a few words." ”
Zhou Xiaolong nodded and walked into the house, and Lao Zheng was about to follow in, but was blocked by Luo Taiping's body.
"Luo Taiping, what are you doing here?!"
"Zheng Xuewu, don't come in with you, I'll talk to him alone, I've already made it very clear, do you understand?"
"You, you, you......"
Before Lao Zheng was furious, Luo Taiping had already closed the door heavily, and Lao Zheng was so angry that his nose was crooked.
Zhou Xiaolong stood in Luo Taiping's room, looking a little restrained, and in order to relieve his tension, he glanced at the entire room.
Luo Taiping's room is not very big, but it is not too small, it is about the same size as the small room where Xia Xue lived before, and the living facilities are very complete, it seems that this Luo Taiping usually lives here.
The room is very simple, the strangest thing is that there are some very strange portraits and symbols hanging on the wall, and Zhou Xiaolong can't understand it, because it is not a decent thing.
Suddenly, a smell of grass incense inhaled into Zhou Xiaolong's nose, he was puzzled for a moment, and thought, Luo Taiping is not an ancient Yizhuang, could it be that there will be superstition in the current morgue?
Following the smell of grass, Zhou Xiaolong searched with his eyes, and soon, he saw a shrine in the corner of the wall, and there was an incense burner in the shrine, and there were actually four thin incense sticks on the incense burner.
Burning incense is also particular, three sticks are generally used to burn incense to the gods, and four sticks are generally used to burn incense to ghosts.
Could it be that Luo Taiping is not worshipping any god but a ghost in his family house?!
Curious, Zhou Xiaolong tilted his body a little, and saw that the shrine was not enshrined in a statue of a certain great god, but a hat.
That's right, the tall hat with tawny fur!!
At this time, Zhou Xiaolong's heart was both nervous and excited.
Finally found the right place, but after Zhou Xiaolong discovered Luo Taiping's secret, how should he face Luo Taiping, a strange person, he didn't know the bottom of his heart?
Fortunately, at this moment, Luo Taiping's expression on his face was still the same, as if he was not worried that Zhou Xiaolong would discover his secret.
Luo Taiping sat on a hardwood chair, stretched out his hand and pointed to the empty chair opposite, and said to Zhou Xiaolong, "Sit down." ”
Zhou Xiaolong shook his head to sober himself up, and then sat opposite Luo Taiping.
opened his mouth, and just wanted to say something, but was stopped by Luo Taiping.
Luo Taiping said: "Don't guess first, let me tell you directly, the person who appeared on the top floor of Longteng Building at night was me." ”
Unexpectedly, Luo Taiping admitted it so directly.
Next, Zhou Xiaolong didn't know what to say, he thought for a while and asked, "You took that evil evil away, what happened?!" ”
"Don't overcomplicate yourself, I have only one purpose, which is to make money." Luo Taiping said lightly.
"Make money?!" Zhou Xiaolong was a little confused, "What do you mean?!" ”
"I don't have any grudges against that evil, but if someone wants to buy a evildoer and the bid is reasonable, I will help the customer get one and then deliver it to him, it's as simple as that."
"How could anyone want to buy a Evil Spirit?!" Zhou Xiaolong was completely confused, "What the hell are you talking about?!" ”
"You wait......"
Luo Taiping stood up, walked to a table, picked up something like a tablet from the table, and then walked back, he knocked on the tablet a few times, and then handed it to Zhou Xiaolong.
Zhou Xiaolong looked down, and the picture that appeared on the monitor seemed to be an online store.
Because Xia Xue always buys things online, Zhou Xiaolong is no stranger to online stores.
However, ordinary online stores are generally very trendy in design and beautiful colors.
And the online store that Luo Taiping asked Zhou Xiaolong to see, the overall design style is very dark, I don't know what it means? !
