66. The answer to the mystery -5
At that moment, I suddenly saw that something seemed to move on the table.
Soon Zhang Ziang also noticed this thing, I only saw it suddenly jumped to the other side of the table, and then fell to the ground, there was no sound at all, I couldn't tell what it was for a while, Zhang Ziang and I retreated to the side, I saw that this thing moved very fast, and soon ran out of the door, and disappeared as soon as the smoke slipped away.
But the moment it slipped out of the door, I seemed to see something of this thing clearly, and I said to Zhang Ziang in some disbelief: "This thing that just escaped seems to be a mouse." ”
The reason why I'm a little uncertain is because this thing is so big, bigger than a larger cat, but judging by its appearance, it's a mouse.
When Zhang Ziang heard me say that it was a mouse, he also said, "I look like a mouse, but how can there be such a big mouse here?" ”
I can't answer this question because I'm the most afraid of rats, and I've been scared since I was a kid, so I looked around and said, "There won't be rats like this here, right?" ”
When Zhang Ziang heard me say this, he asked me, "Are you afraid of mice?" ”
I said, "Yes, I've always been scared." ”
Zhang Ziang didn't respond otherwise, and then he just said, "You follow me a little later." ”
As he spoke, he went inside a little more, and then I saw him stand suddenly, and I saw another identical thing on the beam, and when I looked up, I could only see a shadow that was not very clear, and I felt a chill down my spine, and I said, "Isn't this a big rat's nest?" ”
Zhang Ziang also realized, he said: "Then let's go out first." ”
He and I retreated to the edge of the door, and came out to the eaves, but saw a few black things lying in the yard, like dogs, I felt that the hairs stood up, so Zhang Ziang and I stood still under the eaves, only to see these rats notice that we were coming out, and they were originally lying on the ground and raised their bodies, as if they were observing us, such a big mouse, even if they attack us, we have no way.
I heard Zhang Ziang say, "It's a rat indeed, and I've seen rats like this." ”
I asked him, "Where have you seen it?" ”
Zhang Ziang paused for a moment, and then said, "It seems to be in an underground prison, where there are such rats." ”
Underground prisons? I glanced at Zhang Ziang suspiciously, could it be that Zhang Ziang was really the same person who had been in prison for nearly three years as recorded in that diary, but......
I was thinking about it, and Zhang Ziang said, "I remember that these rats are attacking people. ”
I heard such a sound in the house, as if these rats were surrounding us, I was already afraid of mice, and there were such big rats around me, so I felt even more frightened, I asked Zhang Ziang: "Did you bring a gun?" ”
Zhang Ziang shook his head and said, "No." ”
I didn't bring it either, so that's where the most negligence comes in, which means it's hard for us to get the upper hand in fighting these rats with our bare hands.
Zhang Ziang said: "Don't panic first, there must be a reason why these rats appear here, you have lived here before, do you have any impression of these rats?" ”
I shook my head and said, "No." ”
Not to mention mice, I don't even have any impression of this room, if it weren't for the involvement of the corpse case and the restoration of the crime scene at that time, I wouldn't even be able to remember these vague memory fragments of the corpse case.
Zhang Ziang said: "The appearance of these rats is definitely related to the wax corpse case, even if it has nothing to do with the wax corpse case, it should also be related to you, you think about it, any memory about the rat can be." ”
I was just afraid of rats for no reason, but I didn't know why I was afraid, and I didn't have any specific impressions of mice, so no matter what I thought, I just didn't have the slightest clue, and I said, "No." ”
After I finished speaking, I asked Zhang Ziang: "You said that there are such rats in the underground prison, how did you find them?" ”
Zhang Ziang said: "I don't remember, when I first saw these things, I suddenly remembered some fragments, it was in the underground prison, these rats seem to have risen from deeper underground, because they were dug too deep when the underground prison was built, so these rats escaped out, and these rats have been in the underground prison since then, and then disappeared for some reason." ”
I said, "Are they all transferred here, so does it mean that this is connected to the underground prison?" ”
But as soon as I finished saying this, I felt wrong, because the underground prison I went to was on the outskirts of Sioux City, and this is the mountain city, and the two places are separated by a city, so it is unlikely that the underground prison can spread here, which means that I just said that this is part of the underground prison, and I didn't think about it completely.
Then I saw that these rats had gathered under the steps under the eaves, and the big rats inside were crawling and making a rustling sound, at this time, I suddenly felt a pain in my wrist, and then found that Zhang Ziang used the military knife he carried with him to cut a hole in my wrist, and immediately the blood flowed out, Zhang Ziang took my hand and sprinkled the blood into the big rat pile, I actually saw these rats brushing the ground and scattered, and the rats that had just gathered in the yard were all gone.
I heard Zhang Ziang say, "Sure enough, it has something to do with this kind of thing in your blood." ”
I reacted and I said, "They're afraid of this stuff in my blood?" ”
Before the words fell, I suddenly smelled a strange fragrance, exactly the same smell I smelled in Meng Guangwen's house, I looked at Zhang Ziang and asked, "Have you smelled any fragrance?" ”
Zhang Ziang asked me, "What fragrance?" ”
I said, "It's the strange aroma I smelled at Meng Guangwen's house at the beginning, and it just suddenly appeared." ”
Zhang Ziang really can't smell it, this is similar to the situation last time, it seems that only I can smell this strange fragrance, and Team Fan said at the time that when the corpse case happened, he also smelled the same fragrance at the scene of the corpse case, so what is this smell.
Zhang Ziang said: "Is it related to your blood, or is it related to mice?" ”
When he thought of this, Zhang Ziang suddenly thought of something, and he said, "Will it be ......?"
He didn't say the rest of the sentence, and I seemed to know what he was going to say, and I said, "That's probably it!" ”
Zhang Ziang paused and said, "I won't know until I go back." ”
I looked behind me, and saw that all the rats that had been squirming back and forth were gone, and the room had regained this eerie silence, but the silence made me even more uneasy, as if some danger was creeping up on us.
I said, "I have a very bad feeling. ”
Zhang Ziang asked me, "What's wrong?" ”
I looked into the room and I said, "I don't know, it looks like there's something in the house." ”
Saying that, I glanced at the room, but I didn't know what would be inside, Zhang Ziang said, "Go in and have a look, maybe it's what we're looking for." ”
After saying that, we went into the house, not in the living room, but in the inner room, and the structure of this room is very strange, the living room and one room are the front hall, and there is a backyard after going out, and there are two rooms behind the backyard, and my uneasy feeling is from this room in the innermost corner.
What's more, from the moment we went into this backyard, I began to feel that something was wrong, and I don't know why, but I felt very uneasy in my heart, and I felt as if there was a pair of eyes around me that were always watching us.
Anyway, it's just unspeakably weird.
Zhang Ziang followed the direction I pointed to the corner room, and he asked me, "Is this the one?" ”
I nodded and said, "It's like it's in this, it's in there, but it's ......." ”
At this point, I paused, but what was behind this "but", the train of thought came to an abrupt end.
