Chapter Forty-Six: Someone Died
After driving for a short distance, he saw that there was nothing wrong with the car, so he braked, stopped the car, poked half of his head out of the window, and looked at Xu Ran and Weiyan.
He cleared his throat and said with a bright smile: "Little brother, you see that it is dark this day, why don't I wait for you here, and there will be a good one on the road." ”
"Good!" Xu Ran nodded and agreed immediately. From the time when Wei Yan intercepted his car just now, Xu Ran knew that the middle-aged man in front of him was not like a person with a conscience and love, and the reason why he had to wait for Xu Ran and them was probably not that he was afraid of death.
After the two of them said goodbye to the middle-aged man, Wei Yan couldn't help but ask Xu Ran.
"Did you say that uncle was sick, he couldn't stop him just now, but now he has to take the initiative to wait for us, is there another purpose?"
Xu Ran smiled: "Maybe it's his conscience, but it's not necessarily." ”
Wei Yan shook his head noncommittally and said, "I'd rather believe that the sow will go to the tree than the middle-aged uncle." ”
"He's actually just like you." Xu Ran said, and suddenly his eyes fell on Wei Yan. "Afraid of death"
"It's different! Although I am timid, I am not afraid of death. Wei Yan glanced at Xu Ran and said something very illogical.
The two walked and chatted, and soon came to the direction pointed by the middle-aged man, and from a distance, they saw a black Audi car parked a hundred meters away.
Although the car was found, but the place of parking, and the imagination is a little different, the car is driven by Wei Yan, the parking place is also he chose, remember that at that time, when he parked the car on the side of the road, there were no wild flowers and weeds, but empty mud and slag ground.
But now it seems a bit incredible, even if the two of them have hallucinations, they can't appear in the same illusion. Regarding this, as a master-level hypnotist, Xu Ran also knows this. It is impossible to achieve this, neither external nor internal.
Could it be that this road is really as weird as it is rumored?
The two got into the car, Xu Ran sat in the driver's seat, and Wei Yan sat in the co-pilot. Because I wasn't sure if this road would encounter those bizarre things as rumored, for the sake of safety, Xu Ran finally drove it himself.
Along the way, the two were silent, keeping their eyes fixed on the window.
It was dark outside, and even moonlight could not penetrate a mountain road like this. The car was quiet, Wei Yan opened the window and listened to the movement outside, except for the sound of the breeze falling on the car, he couldn't hear anything.
After Xu Ran turned a corner, he soon came to the place where he met the middle-aged man.
It's just that it's pitch black in front, and you can't see the van driven by the middle-aged man at all.
Both of them looked out the window suspiciously, wanting to see if the middle-aged man had moved the car to the side of the road. But after driving some distance, there was no sign of him.
Wei Yan scolded himself on the side, and quickly quieted down. And Xu Ran's brows were also tightly furrowed, and he always had a feeling of uneasiness.
Not to mention why the middle-aged man drove away by himself, just this road alone can make people feel frightened.
The road was dark, and everything around seemed to merge with the darkness, and if it weren't for the bright lights, it would be impossible to tell where the mountains were and where the roads were.
At this moment, both of them seemed to hear their own heartbeats, and in this oppressive atmosphere, it seemed that it was easier for people to fall into panic.
Wei Yan couldn't bear the loneliness at first, and whispered to Xu Ran: "I said Lao Xu, this road is really strange, you look at so many trees around, and there is not even a single insect call." ”
Xu Ran kept his eyes on the front, and drove cautiously, "If there are insects in this kind of place, it shouldn't be called the Death Highway." ”
Wei Yan asked puzzledly, "Why?" ”
Xu Ran said: "Because there is a lack of vitality here. ”
Wei Yan nodded, feeling that Xu Ran had a bit of sense.
"Then do you believe that there is such a thing in this world?"
Xu Ran didn't answer Wei Yan's question, because he didn't know how to answer, according to the current highway, it looks unremarkable, but there are countless bizarre accidents that have occurred here, if it can be explained scientifically, it is estimated that the problem here has been solved long ago, and it will not be as desolate as it is now.
Suddenly, just as the two were chatting about the road, a white shadow came out of the darkness and stopped in the middle of the road, Wei Yan and Xu Ran were startled at the same time, Xu Ran braked sharply and stopped the car.
Only then did it become clear that what was blocking their direction was the shadow of a person.
After seeing the owner of the shadow, both of them couldn't help but be stunned.
This is not a middle-aged uncle who has just separated.
It's just that at this time, his face turned slightly pale, and he kept glancing at Xu Ran and Wei Yan in the car, and then raised his hands and gestured a few times, and then pointed ahead.
Wei Yan didn't know what he wanted to say, so he could only blame him for a relapse of neuropathy.
But Xu Ran is different, he is a professionally trained person, and he probably knows what the middle-aged man wants to express.
So he turned off the engine and turned off all the power on the car.
Wei Yangang wanted to ask Xu Ran what he was doing. So I saw Xu Ran open the car door and get out of the car, illuminate the road with the mobile phone screen, and cautiously walked to the middle-aged man's side.
Seeing this, Wei Yan couldn't help muttering, "Why is Lao Xu stupid." Then he also got out of the car and walked to Xu Ran's side in the dark.
At this moment, Xu Ran had already started talking to the middle-aged uncle.
Judging from the middle-aged uncle's panicked expression, he must have encountered something big before, otherwise he wouldn't be like now, panicked and speechless.
Xu Ran asked him many times, but he was all hesitant, pointing to the front and not saying the main topic.
Xu Ran didn't want to talk nonsense, and said the guess just now: "Is there an accident ahead?" ”
The middle-aged man swallowed his saliva, nodded, and said yes.
Then, Xu Ran asked again: "Is this accident related to you?"
Speaking of this, the middle-aged man's expression instantly became panicked, and he trembled: "It's dead, but I definitely didn't kill it." At this he crouched down and began to weep bitterly.
"What did he just say?" Wei Yan just walked in, didn't know what was happening, glanced at the middle-aged man who was hugging and crying on the ground, and then looked at Xu Ran again.
Xu Ran had a gloomy face, and said word by word: "Someone died." ”
"What!" Wei Yan was taken aback, and stared at Xu Ran in disbelief, except for the three of them, there was no fourth person here, how could there be a death.
Regarding this issue, Xu Ran also couldn't understand why this murder happened today, not yesterday.
Thinking of this, he glanced at the middle-aged man squatting on the ground, and a timid person like this didn't look like a person who had the guts to kill. So he beckoned Wei Yan to call the police, but he went to the front to investigate the situation.
As for the middle-aged man who stayed where he was, he saw that both of them were leaving, so he stood up and stopped crying. Glancing at the dark surroundings, his neck shrank, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly followed behind Xu Ran.
