Chapter 13: The Writer (9)
I never thought that Brother Erman would take the initiative to call the police, it shouldn't be that the two of us went up to clean up Lao Zhang and then beat him to ashes.
"He's a human being, wouldn't it be illegal for us to kill him, do you want to squat on the fence? Come on, I'll do it myself. β
Brother Erman skillfully took out his mobile phone from my trouser pocket and dialed the phone according to the number, as if chattering, and said: "Hey, hello, I want to call the police, I have a homicide here, well, it's murderous, kill two, the address is in the third building of the XX community outside the road, come on, if you don't come, I have to risk my life." Mmmm, my name is Lei Feng, you can contact and call this number again. β
I really couldn't have guessed that one day I would be able to see a fox immortal who had achieved cultivation call to report the crime, and it didn't seem to be once or twice.
Brother Erman hung up the phone and handed me the phone: "You stay, I'll go first."
"What are you going...... Isn't this still unresolved? "I put my phone back in my pocket.
Both of us chose to ignore Comrade Lao Zhang, and Lao Zhang kept looking at us and didn't make any extra moves.
"It's solved! Why hasn't it been solved? Let's go, you two chatter. Brother Erman resumed crawling, pouting his ass and walking out, very chic.
After Brother Erman leaves, I'll take a look at Lao Zhang, and Lao Zhang will look at me.
I couldn't stand the tension and said, "You...... Do you smoke? β
"It's okay, get me one." Lao Zhang's eyes became blank at the moment, as if he chose to accept all the facts.
I took out the cigarette case and lit one myself, and then threw the cigarette case and lighter at Lao Zhang.
Lao Zhang lit a cigarette with his blood-stained hand, the cigarette holder was pinched by him, and there were blood stains on the yellow paper wrapped in cotton.
"Do you regret it?"
I glanced at the young lady's head and said very calmly.
"Regret...... But what is done is what is done, I shouldn't have killed her! I shouldn't!" Lao Zhang didn't look radical before, knelt on the ground, pinched the cigarette with his middle finger and index finger, hugged his head and cried.
I didn't understand why Lao Zhang became like this, turned his head to smoke a cigarette, and found that the red rope on my body disappeared, along with the ghost lady, I don't know if I went to reincarnate or my soul was scattered.
"You've done it all, it's useless to regret it." I talked eloquently about what Lao Zhang said.
Lao Zhang raised his head, tears sliding down his face: "The most regrettable thing is that I can't write this story anymore."
"What's the ending of your novel?" I really don't know what the content and ending of his novel is.
After thinking for a minute, Lao Zhang choked up and said, "This story...... The ending is that the ghost catcher master came to the hostess's house again after discovering the conspiracy, but he didn't know the bloody and cruel scene waiting for him, the male owner killed the hostess with his own hands and ate her flesh and blood. The ghost catcher master wanted to step forward to stop it and found that it was useless, the ghost was actually controlled by the male master, and it turned out that everything was premeditated by the male master, because he was very interested in the body of the ghost catcher master and wanted to study it. β
"What a terrible plot...... Will anyone read it if you write like this? β
I complained that during the conversation, I had found that the current Lao Zhang was nervously disordered, and his words were incoherent, and he couldn't even make sense of the plot of the novel he had designed.
"Is it rotten? Okay...... In the end, the ending is quite clichΓ©.,The ghost master doesn't actually catch ghosts.,And the male owner is a persecution paranoia.,Schizophrenic psychosis.,The real truth The male owner likes to bring himself into the plot when writing novels.,Inspiration withers after no immersive feeling.,The disease attacked.,Scrape the hostess alive with a knife.,After finding inspiration, you start to feel at ease code words.,The next-door neighbor is the ghost master who called the police after finding out.γ Lao Zhang wiped away his tears and kept looking at me with a cigarette in his mouth.
My eyes collided fiercely with his, and I said without fear, "Are you trying to tell me that you are mentally ill and thus clear your sin!?"
"It's not like this, I just want to tell people about the follow-up plot, because maybe I can't write the plot later." Lao Zhang shook his head and explained and continued: "The happiest time when I write novels is when there is no fire, at that time I have not forgotten my original intention, and it is good to be happy and happy to write novels...... It's just that he was defeated by firewood, rice, oil and salt in life later. β
I wasn't interested in his experience of writing novels: "Don't talk about this, that ghost just now?"
"In your way, you said that you were reincarnated...... I'm about to be rectified, and she should be liberated in her heart. Hehehe......"
You can't compare the current Lao Zhang with the previous Lao Zhang at all, it's completely two people.
I asked another question: "Why are you interested in me?"
"I've been to that bubble tea shop and I know that there are really ghosts in the bubble tea shop, the reason I'm interested in you is because you belong to the weakest in your shop, and the rope I control the ghosts can only lasso you and control you. I especially wanted to include an unlucky character like you in my book, it's a fitting fit."
"Phew, I'm weak?"
"Hehehe...... If I hadn't tried to follow the plot, you'd be dead by now!"
"Phew! You're glad that your soul will be scattered as soon as you're shot, or don't be drawn to my store, or I'll make you worse than dead. β
This is probably the first time in my life that I have spoken harshly to a person.
I now know that Lao Zhang is a rather self-radical person, and he may not have the slightest repentance from beginning to end, and the two cries may be just a pretense, and what he can regret may be that he can't finish the novel.
"The police are coming, I hear the siren."
Sirens sounded outside the window, and Lao Zhang stood up and said to me indifferently, as if he had prepared for this scene to happen.
I also heard the siren: "You're not going to be able to run."
"I'm not going to run either." Lao Zhang is very calm.
I didn't talk any further, I really didn't have anything to talk about with someone who killed someone and still acted very calm.
Ten minutes later, the police broke down the door, saw this scene and did not act rashly, and after preserving the crime scene, they took Lao Zhang and me away.
There are many firsts today, such as the first time to speak harshly, the first time to see a broken dead head, and the first time to sit in a police car...... Handcuffed for the first time. The cold handcuffs reminded me that something might happen to me with me......
Lao Zhang and I sat in two cars, and after I got in the car, I kept explaining that I was the one who called the police, and I didn't believe that there were call records in my trouser pocket on my mobile phone.
The police uncle ignored me, and after driving to the Daowai substation, I was confiscated and thrown into an interrogation room, and Lao Zhang was in the other, probably to prevent us from making confessions.
The interrogation room was not large, six or seven square meters, and I sat at a small table by the door, and there was a computer desk opposite the table. And my handcuffs were taken off and I put on the handcuffs that were fixed to the small table.
After more than ten minutes.
A relatively young-looking police uncle walked in with dark circles under his eyes, sat down on the table across from me, turned on the computer on the table and began to type in what I was going to say next, that is, a confession, and turned on the execution recorder in front of the desk.
The policeman's uncle put his hands on the keyboard and said the first sentence: "Do you believe that there are ghosts in this world?" Your accomplice next door to the crime says he believes it. β
"I believe it!"
I nodded confidently, hoping that Brother Erman would return to the bubble tea shop now and tell Brother Xu about my situation.
"Well, it's good, stay put."
The policeman got up and walked out of the house, and it didn't take me five minutes to go back and forth, and I was completely confused.
No one ever entered my interrogation room again, and it wasn't until I was about to fall asleep that the door was slammed.
Mr. Xin walked in with the police uncle.
When I saw Mr. Xin, it was like seeing the sun: "Mr. Xin! Help me! It's none of my business here!"
"Hehehe...... My little brother has no experience in this area, so take care of it. Mr. Xin pointed at me and said embarrassedly to the police uncle next to him.
The policeman's uncle didn't express too much indifference and said, "Don't fix this next time, he was still smoking with the suspect when we entered the house!" Fortunately, the suspect was quick to solve the case, otherwise your brother would definitely have to suffer a crime. β
"I'm in trouble!" Mr. Xin patted the police uncle on the shoulder and said.
Uncle Bai Xin, the policeman, always looked at him: "If you want to have this kung fu, it is better to help us solve two big cases."
After saying that, he walked up to me, took out the key, and opened the lock on the handcuffs.
"When I'm done with this, I'll come and see you." Mr. Xin grabbed my arm and pulled me up.
To be honest, my legs and stomach are trembling now, and I don't even have the strength to walk aisle, so I was helped out of the interrogation room by Mr. Xin.
At the prompting of the policeman's uncle, I signed and fingerprinted a piece of paper that I couldn't read, and only let the two of us go when I was done.
When I walked out of the Public Security Bureau, I went to Santana with Mr. Xin, and I sat on the co-pilot and said, "I still don't understand what's going on!"
