Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Fat Man Disappears
Ling was introverted and didn't like to talk, and when Luo Yi and the others left, the little girl stood in our room very cramped, at a loss, and we didn't know her well, let alone what to say. The scene was very embarrassing for a while, but in the end, the doctor broke the deadlock and told her not to be nervous and sit casually.
She sat down at this time, but her demeanor was still unnatural, and I felt unnatural, but the doctor didn't feel anything, her expression was as usual, and she chatted with Ling Rou without a match.
I have to admit that doctors always seem to have a unique charm for girls. At first, Ling Rou was still very cramped and restless, but slowly, after she got acquainted with the doctor, her nervousness and vigilance were relaxed. Seeing that the two of them opened the chatterbox, I was not as embarrassed as at the beginning, and interjected a sentence or two from time to time, but what made me depressed was that every time the doctor finished speaking, Ling Rou would take the initiative to answer, but when I spoke, Ling Rou immediately changed her appearance, looking at me with a wary face, which made me really feel the urge to vomit blood.
Fortunately, this situation did not last long, because of the relationship between the doctor and me, and slowly Ling Rou was not guarding me, but there was still a clear difference in the attitude towards the two of us. The doctor, like me, only gave a nickname to the outside world, so the people in the tour group called us reporters or doctors directly, and even the innkeeper wrote a nickname when he registered his name. When Ling Rou called the doctor, he called the doctor's brother, and he didn't mention how affectionate the brother was, but when he called me, he became a hard reporter, needless to say, looking at the two of them, I couldn't help but feel a feeling of losing my life.
At the beginning, the conversation between the two basically revolved around college life, some interesting facts, and later, the topic naturally changed to each other. Ling Rou blushed and asked the doctor's real name and contact information, saying that she wanted to make friends with us, I rolled my eyes as I listened, I couldn't be more familiar with the sparkling gaze in the little girl's eyes, I think back then, every girl who harassed the doctor had this kind of gaze in her eyes.
Traditionally, the doctor would politely refuse and bypass the topic without a trace, but this time, the doctor did not. He smiled and told Ling Rou his real name and contact information, and also told Ling Rou that he could go directly to him if he had something in the future.
The doctor's reaction stunned me, I looked at him in surprise, and said that the old monk who had been a monk for many years was still vulgar?
Ling Rou happily saved the doctor's contact information on her mobile phone, thought about it, and told the doctor all her contact information and the school department class she attended, and almost didn't report her home address, but when she saw that the doctor didn't make any moves, a trace of loss flashed in her eyes, and I smiled and said to her: "Hehe, don't think about it, the doctor is famous for not forgetting, I think he was the one who even memorized the Compendium of Materia Medica, and he remembered your contact information a long time ago." ”
"Ahh Really? Ling Rou looked at the doctor in surprise, and when she saw the doctor nodding in acquiescence, the disappointment in her eyes suddenly turned into joy.
Just when I couldn't figure out what the doctor was messing with, he suddenly looked at Ling Rou and asked, "Ling Rou, what's wrong with you and Miss Xia He?" ”
I was stunned, I didn't expect the doctor to ask about this, Ling Rou was also stunned, and then avoided the doctor's eyes in a little panic, lowered her head and refused to speak.
The doctor and I looked at each other and felt a little strange, but looking at Ling Rou's attitude, I thought that I was reluctant to tell us, so the doctor smiled and said some comforting words, so he didn't continue to ask.
The toilet of the inn is in the backyard of the inn, and there is no independent toilet in the room, which is very inconvenient, but this is no way, think about the town, there is no electricity, and it is inconvenient to go to the toilet. I asked the doctor to go down to release the water, and on the way I asked him if he really liked Ling Rou, or did he just want to ask the reason for the conflict between the two?
The doctor looked at me and smiled mysteriously, and said to guess myself, I rolled my eyes, and said in my heart that anyone can guess, guess you? I'm afraid I can't guess it in this life.
When I got back to the inn, Ling Rou was still sitting at the table, and I suddenly remembered the big problem we were about to face. It's absolutely no problem to sleep three people in this bed, but now that there is a girl by your side, it's impossible for us two big men and a little girl to sleep in the same bed all night, right? Not only is this bad for the reputation of the girl's family, but my skin is not so thick.
After consulting with the doctor, we decided to spend the night on the floor, but fortunately the whole building was made of wood, and so was the floor, which was no different from sleeping on the bed board. In this way, Ling Rou was a little embarrassed, she had to change with us, the doctor persuaded her, she made a concession, and told us that it was okay, the bed could be squeezed, and the three of them could be together.
Just went back and forth, arguing for a long time, the doctor called a pause, looked at Ling Rou and said helplessly: "It's late autumn now, and it's cold at night, since the dispute can't be fruitful, it's better to do this, the three of them all sleep in bed, but they have to sleep in clothes." ”
I looked at the time, it was almost nine o'clock, and it was past nine o'clock, and I felt uneasy when I remembered the advice of the old man in the coffin shop, so I had to agree.
The lights went out, and the room was plunged into deep darkness. The bed is not small, but the three of them are really cramped together, but fortunately, Ling Rou is petite and doesn't take up much space. Ling Rou was lying in the innermost, then me, and finally the doctor, being caught between a man and a woman like this, it felt a little awkward, but as time went by, except for the fact that I was a little nervous when I heard each other's rapid breathing at the beginning, I didn't have any beautiful thoughts, maybe it was the relationship that had not recovered from the poisoning during the day, and I quickly fell asleep.
It may be a strong psychological suggestion before going to bed, I had a fragrant dream in my sleep, and the picture in the dream is indescribable, but the object is not Ling Rou next to me, but Luo Yi.
I was awakened by a sharp knock on the door, and it was very unpleasant to be woken up in a beautiful place in my dream. The night was thick outside the window, and the sky was not yet bright, I looked at the time, and found that it was only two o'clock in the morning, and I immediately wondered who was knocking on the door at this time.
The doctor woke up long before me, and at this time Luo Yi's shout came from outside the door: "Reporter, doctor, open the door quickly, something is wrong......"
Hearing this, the doctor hurriedly opened the door, and suddenly saw Xiao Li and Luo Yi who looked frightened outside the door.
"What's going on?" While lighting the lamp, I said that Ling Rou woke up, Luo Yi looked into the room, and then said hurriedly: "Boss Li has an accident, there was a scream in his room just now, Sister Yang went to find the shopkeeper to get the key, let's hurry over." ”
My heart sank, I didn't dare to delay, I took the flashlight out of my backpack, handed it to the doctor, and then immediately went out of the room with Luo Yi.
There are a total of five rooms on the second floor, and the room of the fat boss Li is on the second floor, because the rooms of the inn are all split in half, so there is a room on one side that is facing the street, such as our one. There are a total of three rooms on this side of the street, our one is at the top, next door are Wang Xi and Dong Qian, and finally Boss Li and Xiao Li.
Originally, the two lived together, but because of yesterday's daytime, Xiao Li moved to live with Sister Yang, leaving Boss Li alone, but he didn't expect an accident to happen soon.
When I came to Boss Li's door, I found that Wang Xi and Dong Qianxiao were already waiting anxiously there, Wang Xi was constantly knocking on the door, one after another, several people living upstairs were also called down by Luo Yi, except for Sister Yang, basically all the people arrived.
Sister Yang went to the innkeeper to get the key and didn't come back, we kept knocking on the door and shouting at the same time, but there was no sound in the room. At last the doctor told everyone to dodge away, and with a sharp kick of his foot, the wooden door was kicked open, and everyone was not surprised by the doctor's strength, and everyone rushed in.
The room was pitch black, and the doctor and I turned on the flashlight to shine around, but we only saw a carved wooden window that was constantly opened and closed by the wind, and the room was empty, Boss Li, was gone......
The doctor and I suddenly thought of what happened last night, and we were so shocked that we both rushed to the window almost at the same time, and found blood on the edge of the window, which seemed to be two bloody handprints. I felt my scalp explode, and I hurriedly leaned out of the window, and the flashlight shone on the street, but I didn't see anything, the wide street was empty, and there was no other bloodstain, and Boss Li seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.
As the doctor and I looked out the window, someone lit a candle in the room, and the others noticed us and came over. When they saw the bloody handprints on the window edge, several girls couldn't help but scream.
I hurriedly made a silent gesture to them, and then asked Luo Yi in a low voice, "Did you hear Boss Li screaming just now?" ”
Luo Yi and Xiao Li both nodded, and Luo Yi said: "About five minutes ago, the three of us couldn't sleep, we kept chatting, and suddenly we heard a terrible scream from the opposite room, we immediately got up to see the situation, knocked on the door and there was no response, Sister Yang hurriedly asked us to inform everyone, first, if there is a real situation, it is easy to deal with many people, and secondly, I am also worried about the safety of others." ”
Hearing her say this, I knew in my heart that Wang Xi and Dong Qian were only separated by a wooden wall from the fat man, while Luo Yi and the others lived opposite the fat man, and it stands to reason that Wang Xi and his family should be the first to find out about the situation, but listening to her explanation, there is no problem.
Wang Xi also said at this time that he was sleeping in a daze just now, and seemed to hear movement next door, as if someone was arguing, he thought that Xiao Li went back to find the fat man and talked about it and then stirred it up, and he didn't care about it at night, and when Luo Yi woke him up, he knew what was wrong.
