Volume I . It's better to meet by chance than to meet by chance Episode 3 Half a palm print

When I arrived at the hospital, because there was only an emergency department at night, and under Ouyang's soft grinding and hard foaming, the doctor checked a little that there was no big problem, so he gave a bottle of glucose and a hanging bottle of what potion to let it go; had to be accompanied by Ouyang and the steward; When the hanging bottle was almost finished, the man finally woke up, looked at Ouyang who was about to close his eyes and fell asleep and thanked him softly.

Ouyang woke up from a half-asleep state, and looked at the man sitting on the bed in a bit of confusion: "Huh? Are you finally awake? The doctor said you were a veteran hypoglycemic patient. I said, can you bring some candy with you next time! If you hadn't met me this time, were you going to pass out on the side of the road? ”

"Thanks, pay attention next time." The man whispered.

"Three hundred and forty-eight two, brother." Ouyang stretched out his hand towards the man.

The man was stunned, and then seemed to react to something; I groped around on my body, but after groping for a long time, I only took out more than one hundred and twenty. He pinched the money a little embarrassed, hesitated for a moment and then stuffed the money to Ouyang, and said embarrassedly: "I only have so many on me now...... I'll pay you back when I get out later......"

Ouyang looked at the man's somewhat reddened face, looking at the other party's narrow little expression; The hard smile that I had been holding back finally couldn't be held back, and I burst out laughing completely when the other party trembled and stuffed the money into himself.

The man looked at this person with a strange expression, and the good-looking Danfeng had an unknown look in his eyes, looking a little ignorant and cute.

"Don't, don't!" Ouyang hurriedly waved his hand, "Be brave in the face of righteousness, be brave in the face of righteousness." It's free, no money is charged. ”

The man's hand was not withdrawn in the air, nor was it handed over, and it was frozen in the air like that; Until Ouyang pushed his hand back and asked, "My name is Ouyang Luo." What's your name, is it Lin Xu? ”

"Hmm." Lin Xu nodded, and his face seemed to be even redder.

Ouyang Luo thought this person was really interesting; I started chatting with him without saying a word. It wasn't until the two bottles of intravenous drips were completely beaten that the topic stopped.

After packing up his things, Ouyang asked, "Where do you live?" I'll send you back. ”

Ouyang's proposal was originally rejected by the other party, but in the middle of the night, Lin Xu really couldn't get a taxi, so he could only compromise.

The luxurious car drove into the slum, fortunately in the middle of the night, otherwise it would have caused quite a stir.

The car stopped in a corner deep in a broken yard.

Ouyang poked his head out, sighed for a while at the poor life of the people, and then turned around to see Lin Xu leave. Before Lin Xu could walk into the small building, Ouyang's voice came from behind.

"Wait a minute!" The man ran over with his long legs and smiled and said, "Are you a private detective?" Do you have a business card? It's good to patronize business in the future. ”

Lin Xu was a little embarrassed: "...... No. ”

Ouyang was strange: "No?" So how did customers find you? ”

"The ad I posted." Lin Xu sighed helplessly.

Ouyang Luo understood that his so-called private detectives were actually those illegal stalkers or monitors; I heard that in some toilets and old streets, you will see small advertisements posted on the walls - commonly known as urban psoriasis.

But I only heard that it was impossible to go to that kind of place as Young Master Ouyang Kuo.

"So...... Leave a call? "Ouyang still doesn't give up, maybe he's tired of playing with beautiful girls; Today, I suddenly want a change of taste; It's hard to see such a handsome man, he can't let it go.

Halfway through the "1368875......" call, Lin Xu was stunned, and then remembered that his mobile phone was broken, and he would have to repair it tomorrow.

β€œοΌŸβ€ Ouyang looked at him strangely.

"Oh, it's okay, I'll write it to you." With that, he took out a small notebook from his backpack, then tore a page and wrote the phone number to Ouyang.

When Ouyang thanked him and collected the loot contentedly, Lin Xu asked him: "You don't look like you're at the same level as me, do you need a private detective?" ”

Ouyang Pi said with a smile: "...... Haha, yes. Yes, definitely. ”

Lin Xu let out an "oh", did not suspect it, pointed to the dilapidated house behind him and said, "Then I...... Let's go. ”

"Okay, go to bed early." Ouyang waved at him, walked into the car, and watched the people leave.

"Hey, 4th floor." He looked through the glass at the extremely old-fashioned outward-looking corridor, and saw Lin Xu walking to the 4th floor and stopping in front of the door to open the door and enter.

"Young Master, can I go?" The steward drank a bottle of instant coffee to refresh himself.

"Well, let's go."

Back in the old and tidy home, Lin Xu turned on the only ceiling lamp with an expressionless face. After flickering a few times, the bulb finally resisted the wind and dust, gritted his teeth and stabilized.

After the light had calmed down, the man looked nervously at the corners of the bed, the crack in the door, the back of the table, and the crack in the windowsill. I don't know what I'm looking for.

After a moment of hecticism, he sat down on the couch and let out a long sigh of relief.

Once relaxed, the pain of being beaten by the crowd during the day became obvious.

Lin Xu grinned for a while, picked up his clothes and looked at it, as expected, his body was blue and purple; After thinking about it, it's better to take a shower before taking medicine.

When the shower room is hot water; Lin Xu sighed comfortably; However, before he could finish his sigh, his eyes caught a glimpse of the glass window of the shower roomβ€”there was a faint half of a palm print on it!

As the hot water spewed out of the shower, the outline of the palm print became clearer.

Lin Xu shuddered, and his heart trembled violently; He hurriedly turned the water temperature to the highest; The whole person stood straight beside the water column, looking at it without blinking.

Clearer, clearer; It was a palm print on the back half of the palm, but there were no lines, only a sturdy print - it was clear that the other person was wearing gloves.

In the smoky and small bathroom, the extreme heat made it difficult for him to breathe, but his body seemed to have fallen into a cold pool, and it was cold.

After being stunned for a moment, Lin Xu hastily took a bath and put on his clothes in a trance; Opening the bathroom window, he stuck his head out and looked out; There were no signs of climbing on the wall next to the window.

Sure enough, did you feel right? Lately, he has always felt unsteady, always feeling that he is being followed by someone; But every time I looked back or deliberately probed, I couldn't find anything.

What to do? Call the police?

But there is nothing but that half of the palm print, will the police take care of it?

Thinking about the results of my previous police calls, the police just walked around the house casually, and finally gave up on the grounds that they were nervous and delusional; And before leaving, I also recommend that I see a psychiatrist......

He almost believed the nonsense of those people before, and felt that he was also a little nervous; But this time, he was convinced that he was really in trouble; Definitely not a so-called delusion!

Now Lin Xu is very flustered, but he has a feeling of being alone.

"Let's call the police!" People who have been flustered for a long time can only think of this life-saving straw in the end; Late at night, if someone really wants to be unfavorable to him, then going out by himself is looking for death; Instead, stay at home.

But you have to have something to defend yourself!

After thinking about it, Lin Xu went to the kitchen to get a few knives; and shut the windows tightly; Then you have to call the police; However, I remembered that my only mobile phone was broken; There is no landline at home.

The man took a deep breath, his heart was uneasy, and his hands trembled a little; He struggled to calm his emotions; In the end, he dragged through a bookshelf and blocked it in front of the door; Then I found some bottles and put them on the windowsill.

The bed curtain was drawn, and the small room suddenly became an airtight box; The lights were dim and somewhat gloomy.

"It should be okay...... Lin Xu muttered; Then he put a knife under his pillow and held a short knife in his hand; With the lights on, restless going to bed tossing and turning; The dead phone has to be repaired tomorrow!

……

In the silence of the night, the moon is obscured by dark clouds, and the stars retreat out of the universe.

The only ceiling light in the room flickered a few times, and the person on the bed did not react in the slightest, and did not know when to fall asleep.

The glass of the window seemed to make some very subtle sound, and the bolt slowly turned counterclockwise, and then was gently pushed openβ€”a thread, a slit, a face...... until an opening is opened for a person to drill into.

The bottle was carefully placed aside, and the closed curtain was slowly lifted; Some indistinguishable dark shadow poked its head out and peeked at the person on the bed.

He moved cautiously with a cat's step.

After a gust of wind blew, the lamp went out like a broken candle after a few meaningless struggles. The whole room blends in with the sky outside, and it is impossible to distinguish the inside and the outside.

The shadow is completely hidden; He stepped through the many "checkpoints" set by Lin Xu and came to the sleeping man.

Against the ink-stained background, the white teeth show a cold light; The shadow grinned; Pulling out a syringe from behind, he gently stabbed it towards the man's exposed arm......
