6/1/08 Sunny

Children's Day, since the "512" earthquake, Yu Xiaochuan has no strange incidents, but life is also bumpy, I deliberately took a leave today, and came out to subsidize myself.

Lin Xi hadn't come to see him for a month, and he thought about it for a while, just like this, his decadent beard was unshaven, and he was angry, to put it bluntly, if you put him on the street, maybe the homeless man is more pleasing to the eye than him.

Having said that, this human essence is vividly displayed in Yu Xiaochuan. You said that you are an old bachelor and don't work well, what are you doing on Children's Day? The people on the street are all one-on-one, and the elementary school students are holding hands; It's not nice to say, you see that stray dogs have the caress of a warm-hearted young lady, what about you? That's what it is.

Yu Xiaochuan is such a big person, and he doesn't say ashamed, he goes to a shopping mall alone, and he goes to an amusement park, just like that, people on the street only look at him, a young man in his twenties, walking on the street alone.

The aunt and uncle next to him said: "Yo, you see how good a young man he is, how can he become a fool, it's a pity." ”

Uncle's words can be said to have turned Yu Xiaochuan's heart into meat sauce: "What do you know?" This is a lovelorn, a cheap, and a person who comes out to find sin. "It can only be said that the uncle is an expert.

Yu Xiaochuan walked in the amusement park like this, sometimes leaning on the railing to watch the little couple's carousel, and sometimes sitting on the wooden chair in a silent daze.

At this time, his eyes suddenly lit up, staring in one direction - an amusement park souvenir shop.

Yu Xiaochuan walked in, thinking and looking among the dazzling counters, as if he was looking for something.

Passing by a light counter, he suddenly crouched down, looked at the angle between the end of the counter and the wall, and quickly grabbed something on the ground - a music box.

The music box seems to have been left idle for a long time after being taken off the shelves, and it was covered with dust. Yu Xiaochuan looked at it carefully, blowing away the dust on it, it was exactly the same, it was exactly the same. This music box is very similar to the one on the balcony when I was a child, but the traces of life in the past are too obvious, and this one is only slightly yellowed.

He tightened the clockwork, and the crisp, almost flawless music lingered in his ears, it was Canon, not complete, only the ** part we are familiar with, with snowflakes floating in the music box, and the girl in a skirt in the middle turning, as if dancing to the music.

"Young man, I see you're interested in this music box." A deep voice came from behind him.

"You, you're the boss here?" Yu Xiaochuan was obviously stunned, he didn't hear the footsteps, and he didn't feel that someone was coming from behind, so he was really startled.

"Yes, this music box has been in my store for a long time, and it was also given to me by an old man before, saying that I should put it in the store to sell, and someone will come to buy it, and he gave me a hundred yuan." The boss recalled, "You say, this is a business that doesn't want money but pays back money, to whom and who doesn't do it?" I agreed, but it's been a few months, and the people who come don't even look at it, and you're the first. ”

"Oh, boss, why don't you sell it to me, and you can keep it here. To me, this thing is kind of a memory. Yu Xiaochuan longed.

"If you like it, take it, after all, there is no cost to it, and it has already earned a hundred dollars." The boss is also generous, unlike other shopkeepers, who want to drill into the eyes of money.

"Okay, thank you then."

When he got home, Yu Xiaochuan wiped the music box clean and placed it on the windowsill seriously. He slept comfortably that night, even if he wasn't dreaming.

08****

Three days passed peacefully, and finally, something strange happened.

On the way to work, Yu Xiaochuan saw a car running a red light, speeding by, and when he arrived at the traffic light, it suddenly disappeared, disappeared without warning, and disappeared out of thin air.

And, weirdly, as if no one around him could see it, he continued his journey.

Different from the experience of the last steamed bun shop, this incident, everything around seems to be still for one or two seconds.

"You saw that too?" An uncle with a scruffy beard leaned into Yu Xiaochuan's ear.

"! You're scared! Yu Xiaochuan scolded.

"Tiezi, calm down, buddy knows that you must be frightened, buddy was stunned just now." The uncle actually comforted Yu Xiaochuan.

"Calm down! Lao Tzu scares you! How many times have I seen that situation just now, what are you afraid of? Obviously, Yu Xiaochuan was very unhappy with the uncle's comfort, after all, it was the uncle who scared him.

"How many times have you seen this?" The uncle looked confused.

"That's right, I've seen it since I was a child, and I've been seeing it ever since." Yu Xiaochuan was very proud.

"Well, I can see it, I have indeed been cheap since I was a child, and I can be proud when I encounter this kind of thing, and I am stupid to death." The uncle is also sharp-tongued, "What about me, surnamed Qin, you can call me Lao Qin, this is my phone number, remember to contact me if something happens, if you don't get through, you don't have to worry, I can see it, I can collect a corpse for you." It's so weird, everyone I know who has seen this is dead, so be careful. ”

"Oh my boy, can you talk about it? What does it matter to you if I die or not? I've seen it since I was a child, isn't this a good life? Stick, tui! Yu Xiaochuanzui also didn't let it go at all.

"You kid is a bit stupid, but look at your blessing, something has gone wrong recently, so you can do it yourself. Also, the music box, find a place to bury it, and the dirty things can't be left. "Lao Qin said that I will leave.

"Music box", "This is a master, he may be used in the future." ”

"In Nanqiu Dongyuan Community, a man fell to his death in the middle of the night, and the city's public security organs have intervened in the investigation, and it is not clear whether the case is suicide or homicide." The voice of the host on the TV is calm and calm.

6/14/08

"Today, the police in our city received a report from the masses, a male floating corpse appeared in the cuitan of the city's green pine garden, the cause of death is unknown, this is the second murder case after the city's June 7 'Nanqiu falling case', the 'Nanqiu case' has not yet been closed, whether the 'cuitan floating corpse' is related to it, this station will continue to follow up and report." The second murder, also male, was seven days apart.

6/21/08

"There it is! Appeared! Yu Xiaochuan jumped up and shouted, "The third murder!" It's been 7 days, and it's the same male! ”

"This must be a series of murders, the murderer is a woman who has been emotionally frustrated and played with by these three scumbags, and what beliefs should the woman have, every time it is seven days apart, it is obviously a ritual." Yu Xiaochuan fried the pot happily, as if his case analysis ability had caught up with the criminal investigation team.

In fact, after thinking about it, counting the arrival of the "Music Box", these four events happen to be seven days apart, and the people involved are all men.

“hey，si

g~" The phone rang.

"Hello? Hello! This is a set of unfamiliar numbers, Yu Xiaochuan asked politely.

"Stinky boy, I'm Lao Qin!" On the other end of the phone was Lao Qin, the passer-by from more than ten days ago.

"You old bastard! Where did you get my phone? Yu Xiaochuan obviously remembered this old Qin.

"This is easy to do, let my friend check it, it's a little meaning." Old Qin Yangyang was proud, "By the way, let's get down to business, you kid didn't dispose of that thing, right?" ”

"What's that?" Yu Xiaochuan looked confused.

"That's just the music box!" Lao Qin was very anxious, "It seems that you kid forgot everything I said, something big happened!" ”

"I'm hanging up! Every day you don't say something good, what big thing can happen to a music box? Yu Xiaochuan had palpitations and put on an attitude of not caring.

"Did you read the news? I've been dead for the past few days! It's been seven days since each one, plus it's been seven days since you got that music box and when you brought up a case! Don't you understand? "Lao Qin, his words obviously sounded a wake-up call for Yu Xiaochuan.

"Wan, what if it's just a coincidence?" Yu Xiaochuan was a little hairy.

"Coincidence? Those dead people are all yin, and so are you! But you're still a little different, to be precise, you're locked in the yang, and your identity is hard to say, but I'm sure the seventh target must be you, you're the eye of the Seven Star Array! Lao Qin seemed to be in a hurry to jump up.

"Toot, beep, beep-" The call was disconnected.

"Hey! You stinky boy, dare to hang up the phone! Don't die! Old Qin muttered.

6/28/08

"There was an explosion in a restaurant on the pedestrian street of our city, and it is reported that although the explosion time was exactly noon, there were no diners and service personnel in the store except for the owner, so the explosion only caused one death." Fourth! It's been seven days, male!

"Hey! Lao Qin, I believe it, this is the fourth death, the first three cases are about to become unsolved, you can save me! Yu Xiaochuan coaxed and let go of the disdain of the previous days.

"You kid, finally get it?" Lao Qin deliberately raised a high profile, just to be ashamed of Xiaochuan, indeed, this kid is indeed arrogant enough. "Don't worry, when you meet my Lao Qin, count it as your brat's blessing, this little thing is not serious, it is to be injured."

"So dangerous?" Yu Xiaochuan is not a ruthless and unrighteous person.

"Where is this? Lao Tzu has dealt with 10,000 times more ruthless than this before. "Lao Qin is boundless, but it is also a fact, Lao Qin was a figure with a head and a face in the industry when he was young, and many rich people in the city have also invited him, but I heard that this old guy is a bit unscored, and not everyone can invite him. That's it, and there are some infamy, just because he asked him not to go, and the employer died in the end.

"That's okay, Old Qin; Oh no, Brother Qin, Master Qin! Little brother, I will leave my life to you, you have to do your best! Yu Xiaochuan was so frightened that he didn't even want his dignity, so he almost knelt down and kowtowed to Lao Qin in person.

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, what about you, just leave some money and arrange a good meal for Lao Tzu, just remember, it's the best within your ability, don't fix those things that you can't even afford, it's boring! Remember! "Lao Qin is indeed righteous, this is a free help, after all, such a person with a head and a face, a meal is gone, and no one can believe it.

Clockwork, not only the spinning music box, but also the fear behind everything.
