Chapter 15: Departure
Seeing me, Lu Qing was obviously stunned, "Why did you come up?" She quickly closed the door.
"Go to the bathroom." I say.
Lu Qing stared at me, and I walked towards the staircase as usual.
We went downstairs, I helped load the chili sauce into the car, and my aunt handed me a small glass jar for me to taste.
When we got out of Du's house, I asked Lu Qing directly what was going on with the notebook.
Lu Qing said coldly: "What's the matter with you?" Don't think I don't know you're with a classmate who isn't my cousin. β
was debunked by Lu Qing on the spot, and I was a little embarrassed.
"What the hell are you here for?" Lu Qing asked me.
"How do you see that?"
Lu Qing said: "My cousin's grades in college are average, and I am busy with part-time jobs and I don't have time to take the graduate school exam. β
"But didn't the news say that Du Nianrong was escorted?"
"Before graduation, my cousin's roommate in the dormitory had an accident. Later, in order to seal this matter, the five people in the same dormitory gave money to those who gave money, and those who protected the research institute. My cousin chose Baoyan. β
I see.
"I met Du Nianrong in the ancient city." I say.
Unexpectedly, Lu Qing didn't look surprised at all, just looked at me thoughtfully.
Seeing her like this, she must know something, I hurriedly asked her. Lu Qing paused, "I also saw my cousin in the ancient city." β
"Do you also live in the ancient city?"
"My family is in the new city, and there is a classmate who runs a handicraft shop in the ancient city, and I often go to her shop to play. What about you? What to do with my cousin? β
I didn't want to involve Lu Qing in this matter, and I couldn't tell her about my experience.
Before I met the Lethe Inn, someone told me that I must have suggested that he see a psychiatrist.
After thinking about it, I said, "I met a woman in the ancient city who asked me for help, and when I called my companion over, the person was gone. I looked at her like Senior Sister Du, and I wanted to come to her house to have a look. β
"You didn't call the police?" Lu Qing asked.
With her words, I knew she didn't know anything. I don't know about her cousin, it's no longer within the purview of the police.
"I just glanced at it, and I really can't be sure that it's Senior Sister Du."
She told me about her experience.
ββ¦β¦ When I came out of the bar with my friends in the evening, I passed by an inn and saw a person standing in front of a window that looked like my cousin. I thought I was dazzled, but my cousin threw a ball of notes out of the window. β
She opened her purse and pulled out a piece of sticky note from it.
Only two words were written on the paper: "Help me!" β
She took out her notebook from her pocket and opened it for me to see, "Isn't the handwriting similar?" β
It is almost certainly the handwriting of the same person.
"You didn't call the police either?"
"I drank too much that day, and my girlfriend and I didn't remember which inn it was. I went back to look for a long time afterwards, and I didn't have the slightest impression, which is really strange. If it weren't for the note, I would have thought I was dreaming. Lu Qing was annoyed.
I don't think it's necessarily because of the drinking.
It was Du Nianrong who found Lu Qing by herself, but it made me feel less guilty. I'm afraid that because of my nonsense, Lu Qing will also be involved. Now it seems that she is also in the whirlpool.
But she didn't know it herself, saying that she was afraid that it would be bad for her uncle and aunt to be happy if she called the police rashly.
So prepare for yourself to check it yourself.
I said I could help.
Lu Qing looked at me in surprise.
"I'm sorry I didn't save anyone before. Besides, my job is at night, and I have nothing to do during the day, and I am idle when I am idle. β
"That's it."
The two of us exchanged mobile phones and WeChat, and I also learned that she was a local and lived in Shangshui, not far from the ancient city.
"I think those guys are the ones who tricked your sister into going to work. Don't you know where Du Nianrong went to work? β
Lu Qing sighed, "The address she said before, the police also went, it was an empty factory." I heard that the boss ran away and owed a lot of money, and the creditor took everything he could pull away. β
I asked for the address and was going to go over tomorrow.
After breaking up with Lu Qing at the entrance of the village, I rode back to the ancient city on a battery car and told Zhang Wenshao everything. However, I didn't say Lu Qing's identity, I only said that it was Du Nianrong's classmate, and I still didn't want Lu Qing to fall too deep.
Zhang Wenshao temporarily lived in the supermarket Boss Wang's shop, and his expression became even more depressed.
"Not tomorrow, can you do it tonight. I just can't stand it. Zhang Wenshao pleaded.
Boss Wang slapped the table, "Wen Shao, don't worry, let me go with Xiao Yang tonight." How is Xiao Yang? The place is quite remote, there is no highway, and it takes three or four hours to walk the mountain road. I don't think I will be able to come back during the day. β
It's almost five o'clock now, and I thought about it and agreed. After all, it's about my own safety.
Hearing that I was going to change shifts, Song Meng raised her eyebrows, "What's wrong?" β
"Go back to school to deal with something, the graduation certificate. I don't necessarily come back tomorrow. I'll do it for you in two days. β
"Come on, I'm going to go home in a few days, and then you can do it for me." Song Meng readily agreed. Asked me what time it was on the train, and got me some fast food to eat on the way.
I really can't connect her with the person who hurt me.
After taking the things, I didn't want to stay longer, so I said hello to Sister Lin and went out.
Boss Wang has also closed the supermarket, "The car is parked in the parking lot outside, follow me to buy something first." β
He led me to the labyrinthine alleys of the ancient city and knocked on a door.
The faΓ§ade man handed Boss Wang a handbag of things, and Boss Wang held it on his chest like a baby.
I asked him what he bought.
He said: "It's all something to ward off evil spirits, this peach wood bracelet is for you, it can be regarded as self-defense." This family is my friend, everything is genuine, and there are too many fakes on the market now. β
As he spoke, he pulled out a mahogany bracelet from his handbag and gave it to me.
It is made of mahogany beads, and the polishing is very rough.
He also had two mineral water bottles and a copper coin sword in his handbag, which were probably things to ward off evil spirits and drive away ghosts.
I didn't expect Boss Wang to know a lot.
Boss Wang waved his hand, "When I was young, I followed a fortune teller to run through the rivers and lakes for a period of time, and I was half-witted. These objects are okay to deal with ordinary dirty things, but the one in your inn is useless. β
When we arrived at the parking lot, Boss Wang drove a dilapidated van and drove all the way to the destination.
I checked it on my phone on the road.
The place is called Hewei Mountain, and there are good quality hot springs at the foot of the mountain.
There are big bosses from other places who fancy investing in hot spring resorts, but they didn't expect the boss to go bankrupt halfway through the construction, and this matter will be over.
Since the ancient city became popular on the Internet, the Qingfeng County Government intended to continue to develop hot springs, and by the way, the scenic Hewei Mountain was transformed into a tourist scenic spot, but it was delayed again.
