Chapter 115: Don't let go of a bad guy
Officer Zhang and his assistant slept in Qiao Xiao's original room.
The conditions here are really indescribable, and when the assistant opened the only light bulb in the room, the faint yellow light could only shine on that small circle, stretching the shadow of the person on the wall for a long time.
"What did you say?" Officer Zhang's big face suddenly came over, causing the assistant to take a step back in fright.
"What are you doing?" Officer Zhang asked strangely.
"It's so oozing that this light is shining on your face." The assistant stammered.
"Don't scare yourself, how can it be so mysterious, atheist!" Officer Zhang patted his assistant on the shoulder.
The assistant opened the mobile phone and looked at the time, it was only 8:00 in the evening, he shook it back and forth, left and right, and there was no signal on the mobile phone here: "Fortunately, I also played some single-player games, so as not to be too boring at night." ”
Officer Zhang shook his head at him, the young man couldn't bear to be lonely!
Officer Zhang sat directly on the bed in a daze, thinking about the relevant case.
"Damn, there's no power!" The assistant tapped the screen a few times, only to see a flash of lightning, and the phone was completely out of battery.
He pulled out the charging cable and began rummaging up and down the room.
Officer Zhang asked him, "What are you looking for?" ”
"Find a socket!"
"Don't look for it, there won't be a plug in here, it's not easy to give you an electricity, the wires are all drawn from other places."
"I really didn't expect that there would be such a poor and backward place in the current society. How do these people live here, it's almost isolated. The assistant threw his phone on the bed and stopped looking for it.
"It's seclusion, they live by their own beliefs, and superstitious and blind worship has been their habit for generations."
"Lao Zhang, what do you say is this really fake? Is there really a strange sound at night? ”
"I don't know, maybe there is, maybe not, but they said they can't go out, do you dare to go out and have a look?"
"Didn't we stay just to verify Qiao Xiao, what they said was true or false? Do we have to sacrifice in order to investigate the case? "The spirit of adventure of the assistant is quite strong.
"Good young man, I read you right, we as police officers have to pursue the truth, we have to be bolder, and some necessary adventures have to be done. If there's a sound tonight, then we'll take a look. Officer Zhang patted his assistant on the shoulder and said with relief.
"Go to bed early, I have to work at night."
The assistant thought about it, turned off the light, and the two slowly fell asleep.
Tonight's village was particularly quiet, there was not even the sound of a dog barking, only the bleak moonlight suspended in the air, and at some point a layer of fog rose from the mountain, which was blown by the wind leisurely, and circled the whole village, covering the sky over the village with a veil, and it was hazy and unclear.
At 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, the sound of bells sounded on time, from far and near, starting from Dongshan to the village.
"Lao Zhang, I heard the voice." The assistant did not sleep deeply, and as soon as there was movement, he woke up.
Officer Zhang listened carefully to the sound of the bell, and it became clearer and clearer, as if the speed was fast and was about to reach their side.
"Let's go, get dressed, and go out and have a look." Officer Zhang and his assistant rolled over and got out of bed, gently pressed the door a crack, and looked into the courtyard.
There was nothing, only a layer of fog floating over the courtyard.
"It seems to be foggy, I don't know what the visibility is, be careful when you go out." Officer Zhang turned back to his assistant.
The two crept out of the courtyard door and followed the direction of the sound to meet them.
The road was very dark, the moonlight was very light, and the road in the village was very uneven because no one had ever built it, and they often staggered to walk, and the further they went, the heavier the fog became, and the visibility was reduced to within a meter.
The two of them were a little nervous, so they simply held each other's hands, and each picked up a thick branch and used it as a tool for exploring the way.
The sound of the bell came from far and near, as if it had come to their side and began to circle around them.
"Lao Zhang, why do I feel that the cold hair is a little erect, this voice is circling around us!" The assistant found that he was a little too bold at this time, and his legs began to tremble slightly, what kind of voice was so strange.
Lao Zhang also had a creepy feeling, he couldn't see or touch, the sound of the bell was around, as if a child was running around them, and he was still beating a drum in his hand.
"Hey!" Officer Zhang suddenly shouted.
This sound is especially abrupt in the silent mountains!
The assistant was shivering: "Lao Zhang, don't be scary!" ”
Officer Zhang's shouting really had some effect, and the sound of the bell stopped for about a minute.
Then it changed to another sound, and it was changed to a different sound.
"Officer Zhang, what the hell, it seemed to be a person just now, but now it's a group of people knocking." The assistant said in a trembling voice.
Officer Zhang held his branch to his chest and paddled it around. He snapped, "Something, come out for me!" ”
But all that responded to him was the sound of percussion.
The assistant also followed the example of Officer Zhang, holding a branch to his chest to protect himself: "Lao Zhang, I think we should withdraw, it's really weird outside." ”
Officer Zhang looked at this situation, the fog was too big, and he couldn't see anything: "Okay, let's go back first, and we'll talk about it tomorrow." ”
The two turned around and wanted to go back, but they couldn't see the way back clearly, the more they walked, the more strange they became, and the voices next to them were endless, like a group of people beating gongs and drums to escort them.
"Lao Zhang, no, this is not our way back, why are there weeds everywhere?" The assistant noticed the problem as he walked: "We didn't have so many weeds when we came." ”
"Looks like we're on the wrong track." The assistant's heart kept beating a drum, and he could hear the sound of his own heartbeat and the sound of the outside echoing each other.
"Lao Zhang, what should we do now? Do you want to keep walking? It's been a cold night, and I'm going to freeze into ice ballast. ”
"We didn't think it through, we didn't expect the fog here to be so big that we couldn't see anything clearly. I don't think we're leaving, let's sit down, stay up all night here, and we'll be fine tomorrow morning. ”
"I'm afraid that if we weren't scared to death, we would have frozen to death. I now know why Director Fang fell from the mountain and was seriously injured, and I think it scared this strange place to death. ”
"I didn't expect what Qiao Xiao said to be really right, I'll just say it, Qiao Xiao has been in contact with him a few times, and I judge that he will definitely not be a bad person.
I'm really curious about this Qiao Xiao now, he looks so handsome, and so many people like him.
Someone likes to be hated by others, this report, I don't know which guy wants to hack him? ”
The two of them sat down directly on the ground and began to chat.
The surrounding voices found that these two people were not leaving, and they were urging more urgently, and the sound of dangdang was endless, and they knocked continuously.
Officer Zhang and his assistant were both interrupted from speaking, and the two looked at each other, and their vigilance was raised to the highest.
The two men turned and sat back to back, holding the branch to their chest.
Soon a demonic wind swirled around them, flying sand and rocks, blowing so that the two of them closed their eyes, that is, this gust of wind, the strength became stronger and stronger, as if it wanted to roll both of them into the air.
Officer Zhang complained in his heart, how could there be a tornado at night?
The two of them couldn't, so they had to clasp their hands. The wind was so strong that they all curled up and eventually had to hug each other to lighten the wind.
The two shrunk into an irregular circle, which is the most suitable for rolling, and under the pressure of the wind, Officer Zhang and his assistant jointly chose a way to escape, that is, to roll directly on the ground.
At this time, there is no sense of direction, there is no helper, and the only thing that can protect them is the other party's body.
The wind blew the two of them directly on the ground and rolled quickly, and the only way the two of them could think of was to protect their heads, and they couldn't control anything else. Rolling and rolling, they gradually lost consciousness.
There was nothing to say all night, and the dense fog in the middle of the night gradually dispersed when the first rays of sunlight arrived in the early morning, and the villagers continued to kowtow in the direction of Dongshan early in the morning, and Da Niu's grandfather walked to the foot of the mountain as usual.
This time, before he reached the foot of the mountain, only halfway down the road, next to the weedy pile, he saw two people lying on the ground.
The two of them were still hugging each other, their whole heads buried in their chests, and their exposed bodies wrapped in a ball. The clothes were cut in the east and west, and they looked like they were rolled down the mountain.
Da Niu's grandfather slapped his thigh: "Evil, evil, let them not go out at night, this has to go out, is this person still alive?" I want to sacrifice to my mother so much, I said it earlier, I have to use this way. Is it all broken in the brain? ”
He had no choice but to go back to the village and call the village chief.
With everyone's help, the two men were carried back to their rooms.
As soon as I touched my nose, it was okay, both of them were breathing, and there were not many wounds on their bodies, or some abrasions. The village chief and a few old men fed the two men some water, and then sat next to them, waiting for the two to wake up, and smoke dry cigarettes.
After about an hour, the assistant woke up first, his headache was cracking, and the bones in his body felt as if they had been beaten once, and the pain was terrible.
"Are you alright, young man?" The village chief hurriedly came up to inquire about the situation.
The assistant struggled to lean on the bed, and saw that Officer Zhang next to him had not woken up: "I seem to have fallen and injured myself, how is Lao Zhang?" ”
The village chief replied, "He should be waking up soon, did you two go out yesterday without being obedient?" ”
The assistant lowered his head in shame: "We are also investigating the case." While he was talking, Officer Zhang finally opened his eyes.
The first sentence he says is, "Where am I?" ”
The village chief laughed a little angrily at the reaction of the two of them: "I said comrade police, why are you people in the city so reluctant?" We didn't listen to what we said, and in the end it wasn't you who suffered, the last time I was seriously injured and sent to the hospital, and the two of you are like this now, and our village will never dare to let outsiders come in the future. ”
Director Zhang didn't care about the pain on his body, it was true that this matter was their private action, and he quickly apologized to the village chief: "I'm sorry, village chief, I'm causing you trouble, we are actually here to find out the truth." ”
"You know, it's not easy for us to be police officers, we can't wronged a good person, and we can't let a bad person go."
"And what is your conclusion now?"
