Chapter 9 The Disappearing Seventeenth Night Bus
"About a week ago, there was a case of a missing bus in the eastern suburbs, and the entire vehicle and its passengers disappeared, as if the world had disappeared.
Because the missing bus was a night bus, it was not until the early hours of the morning that the company noticed that something was wrong and reported it to the police station.
And this case is still being investigated due to the scarcity of clues. β
Lin Xuan deliberately paid attention to the bus that disappeared in the case.
Not surprisingly, it was the number 17 bus.
At the same time, he also found some strange information in the notes below the case:
Recently, a number of people went missing at midnight in the eastern suburbs, and some witnesses claimed to have found them wandering around the bus stop as if waiting for a bus before they disappeared......
Closing the phone, Lin Xuan leaned on the back seat of the car with his eyes closed, constantly thinking about the information just now in his mind.
Obviously, the No. 17 bus mentioned in the case is probably the one that the phone weirdly said, as for the so-called missing ...... He thought that the car had probably been killed, and this bizarre incident seemed to be done strangely.
I just don't know what other weirdness looks like......
But judging from the fact that it can make an entire bus disappear into thin air, this weirdness will probably be terrifying.
"This is different from the weird little fight on the phone......" Lin Xuan rubbed his temples with a headache, and was thinking about what to do next, when the driver in front of him lowered his voice and said mysteriously:
"Young man, you believe in your uncle once, this eastern suburbs are not peaceful, our group is more than ten years of old drivers, there is something to say, something is going on in the other, and they are all helping each other when something happens, just recently I don't know when it started, someone said that when he passed by a station in the eastern suburbs, he saw someone in the station was about to get on the train.
He didn't pay much attention to it at first, everyone knew about the disappearance of the seventeenth road a few days ago, but he didn't think about it in that direction, and there was more than one night bus.
But as he passed by the site, he looked back at the car. This look is broken, although he has never taken the No. 17 bus, but so many days and night shifts, haven't you seen it? At first glance, he recognized the car as the seventeenth road.
At that time, he was so frightened that he drove away and didn't dare to look at it.
At that time, when Seventeenth Road just disappeared, we discussed it in our group, and we all said that the car inside might have been killed somewhere, but we haven't found it now. As a result, within a few days, he saw that the car was still in good condition with the passengers, do you think he could not be afraid? β
"Of course it's nothing, what really scares him isβ" Speaking of which, the driver's uncle leaned back slightly, his eyes fixed on the road, but his voice was lowered.
"He saw that the No. 17 bus was almost full of passengers, think about it, how can there be so many passengers on a night bus, and the group says that this bus is a little ......."
As he spoke, the uncle shrank his head in some fear, and instead of continuing, he changed the subject.
"Later, some people said that they had met the No. 17 bus, and some people said that they had also encountered other strange things in the eastern suburbs, of course, I don't know if this is true or not."
Lin Xuan sat in the back seat of the car and looked thoughtfully at the dark outside the window.
Since the disappearance of Seventeenth Road last week, there have been people missing one after another, and he feels that these people are probably all killed, and ...... Although Lin Xuan didn't know much about weirdness, he felt that people had been missing because Seventeen Road had been attracting passengers.
- That is, is it also growing?
Lin Xuan's heart was a little heavy, as far as the information he had gathered now, if he got on the seventeenth bus, he would probably be in a very dangerous situation.
The last time he successfully recorded the phone weirdness was also because of chance, he didn't think that now that he shouted casually, the book could directly include other weirdness.
"There should be conditions, but what are the conditions?" Lin Xuan lowered his head and fell into thought.
"When you arrive, I'll send you here, young man, and there's Wanli Station in front of you."
The driver's uncle slowly stopped the taxi, his eyes turned around and looked around, and he was slightly relieved to find that he had not encountered the No. 17 bus mentioned in the group.
Lin Xuan nodded, and after paying the fare, he opened the door and was about to walk to the station not far away, when suddenly the driver's uncle in the front seat handed over a note, with a series of numbers written on it, and when he looked at the driver's uncle, the uncle touched the top of his somewhat bald head and smiled at him honestly.
"Officer, in fact, I remember you, the first time I pulled you at the police station, I can't forget. I believe that your police station has a record of the affairs in the eastern suburbs, but I still can't help but say a few words, in fact, I also want to provide you with more information.
In fact, there are very few people walking back and forth at such a late hour, except for us night drivers, who may be some police officers on duty.
I know it's not easy for you to come here to investigate, but my Lao Liu can't help you, this is my phone, call me if you have something, promise to be on call. β
Looking at the note with the phone number in his hand, Lin Xuan was stunned for a moment, and was subconsciously wanting to thank him, only to find that the taxi window had been slowly rolled up, and the driver uncle inside was waving his hand to him silently.
He tightened the note in his hand and nodded to the slowly departing taxi, a warm current flowed through his heart, and even the tension just now was dispelled a little, he turned his head to look at the Wanli station behind him, which was only dimly lit, and clenched his fists.
"Isn't it just weird, I'm afraid of hair."
β¦β¦
It was far away and didn't see it clearly, but when Lin Xuan approached the station, he found that there were people waiting for the train inside. Outwardly, this is a medium-looking woman in a yellow dress.
The only thing that impressed Lin Xuan was that her face shape and eyebrows were very strange, and she gave people a snarky image when she looked at it, and she had been standing in the station staring at her mobile phone, as if she was chatting with someone, and she didn't know if it was too engrossed, she didn't even look at Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan looked away and observed the environment of the surrounding station.
Because it was a suburban station, weeds were growing around, and an old dim light bulb hung next to the station, providing some light weakly, but it was not even brighter than the moonlight.
Lin Xuan just stood in the middle of the station, he looked at the dark and empty roads on both sides, let alone the seventeenth road, he didn't see the shadows of the other night buses.
Moreover, he was a little embarrassed to stand alone, so he turned his head to look at the woman in yellow who was constantly fiddling with her mobile phone with her head down to the right, ready to learn some information.
"That...... Hello, my name is Lin Xuan, what is your name? Lin Xuan looked at the woman in front of him sincerely, trying not to look like a stranger with a ghost in his heart, but the woman in front of him still typed quickly on her mobile phone, ignoring him with a cold face.
Lin Xuan was suddenly stunned in embarrassment, not knowing whether this hand was stretched back or not, he quietly glanced at the screen in the woman's hand, and the chat box was full of swear words.
It seemed that he was busy scolding someone, Lin Xuan didn't dare to look more, and was about to divert his gaze, but the woman in yellow on the opposite side suddenly turned her head and grabbed it.
found that the strange man in front of her was peeking at his mobile phone, and her already cold face was a little ugly.
"You're insane, peeking at other people's phones."
The woman in yellow scolded Lin Xuan in an unkind tone, and then moved to the side with some disgust.
Lin Xuan opened his mouth and looked at the woman in front of him with a confused look.
"I'll just take a look, are you like this?"
With a sigh, he calmed down, he couldn't care, he couldn't care.
Originally, Lin Xuan was bored here, and he didn't want to talk anymore, but he suddenly remembered that he was going to get on the seventeenth bus for a while, if the woman hadn't left before the seventeenth road came, and even got into the car......
"Hello ma'am, you know the case of the disappearance of the seventeenth road in the eastern suburbs, what if...... I mean, if the 17th bus does come, you must not get on the bus.
Or if you're scared I can call my friend to drive a taxi over and pull you away without delay, don't worry. β
"It's not you, you said I'd leave if I left, do you know that this is the last night train, and I won't be able to go home if I can't catch up.
And you, look at what you look like, you are not a good person at first glance, and you still take a taxi, me, I have seen a lot of people like you, do you think I will be fooled? β
The woman in the yellow dress looked away from her phone, looking at the sneering smile on the corner of Lin Xuan's mouth, coupled with her sour face and tone, Lin Xuan wanted to beat her up now.
Really, it's too much of a beating, and besides, did she hear the point of what he said? Shouldn't the point be that she doesn't get on the 17th bus?
As if she hadn't heard, she had been struggling with Lin Xuan asking her to leave the station and get into a taxi, and she was yelling on the side.
Hehe, vexatious.
Lin Xuan directly blocked her in his heart and blocked all her speech, he stood in the middle of the station and waited for the train, while the woman's noisy voice was directly ignored by him.
Lin Xuan still has the ability to tolerate this, he has been a police officer for a while, and he has not met such unreasonable people, as long as this kind of person does not care about them.
And just when Lin Xuan was distracted, a bright light suddenly flashed in the distance, and then a bus with high beams slowly drove towards the station, and gradually slowed down when it approached the station.
"Snort......
Wanli Station has arrived, and passengers who get off the train are asked to get off the train through the back door and welcome your next ride. β
The broadcast sound of the cold machinery sounded as in the morning dream, and Lin Xuan glanced at the general characteristics of the car: the exterior skin was in disrepair, the lights were dim and there were some obvious notches in the right reversing mirror of the bus, everything was the same as the photos in the information, standing opposite the car, the car was in a dilapidated and disrepaired sense of age.
"Dangchang"
The crisp sound of the coin being put into the iron box sounded, Lin Xuan followed the sound and found that the woman in yellow who was originally standing on the side had already finished throwing the coin and was about to go to the car.
Lin Xuan was suddenly stunned for a moment, followed by anger, didn't he tell her not to go up?
"Don't get up, there's something wrong with this car!"
And the woman in yellow in the car just glanced back at Lin Xuan and sneered, "This is the last one, right?" If I don't take this one, which one will I take? And the problem, I think you have a problem. β
After speaking, she glanced at Lin Xuan and then walked straight to the car, Lin Xuan, who was standing under the car, just wanted to continue to say something, when suddenly he caught a glimpse of the scene in the car, and immediately closed his mouth and didn't dare to speak again.
- The car was almost full of "passengers".
