Chapter 16: Strange Night Fishing

The mandrill is gone, and the nerd is still in my shop.

I dragged the nerd outside the store, closed the door, and went to sleep.

I don't care if the nerd is dead or alive.

The next day, when I opened the door, I found that the nerd was gone.

I called Wei Da Belly, explained to him that the nerdy father didn't understand computers, and asked him to talk to the police who handled the case.

I don't think nerds end up turning themselves in.

He would only let his father be punished for him in prison, while he himself lived his comfortable life in the flowery city outside.

——————

My days were back to normal until one day Liangzi reappeared.

"Brother, something happened again." These were the first words that Liang Zi said when he saw me.

I'm also a little helpless, and now Liang Zi seems to have some meaning of the Grim Reaper elementary school student Conan. As long as he shows up, it will not be good.

I took Liangzi's car to Wei Da's office.

In Wei Da's office, in addition to Wei Da's belly, there is also a man.

This man sat on the sofa opposite Wei Da's belly, about thirty years old, looking at his clothes, he should be a small white-collar worker, his face was a little sickly white, his hands kept rubbing each other, and he looked very restless.

I am very familiar with Wei Da Belly now, so I didn't be polite to him.

I moved a chair myself and sat next to him.

Seeing me sit down, Wei Da Belly said to the man, "You tell me what you know, say it again." ”

The man nodded, picked up the disposable teacup on the table, didn't care about the heat, took a big sip, calmed his nerves, and then began to say:

"My name is Zheng Changping, I am twenty-nine years old, and I am an accountant of a trading company.

I don't usually have any hobbies, but I like to catch fish.

However, I don't have much money, and I bought imported milk powder for my baby from my little salary, and I don't have much left.

I can't afford to go to the fishpond for a fee, so I can only go to some small rivers and ditches to have a good time.

I have to go to work during the day, so I have to go at night.

Recently, I happened to find a good place, there are not many people there, there are still a lot of fish, but the road is a bit far, it takes two hours to drive, and it won't be long before you have to go home.

Yesterday, I went fishing there again.

In order to fish a little longer, I went without dinner.

When I got there, it wasn't quite dark.

I hurriedly set up the guys, made a nest, opened the bait, and adjusted the lights.

I'm usually not timid, and I don't believe much in ghosts, monsters, and these things, otherwise I wouldn't dare to fish at night alone.

However, what happened next last night completely changed my perception.

I didn't eat dinner, so I brought a few pieces of bread.

When I was done, I munched on my bread and looked around.

Suddenly, I noticed a figure in the reeds opposite, who seemed to be fishing.

At the time, I was actually a little lost.

I finally found a good place, but I was discovered by someone else.

However, I still said hi to him.

I asked him if he had a mouth.

Whether there is a mouth or not means whether there is fish to eat.

But he ignored me.

I don't care, among the people who like fishing, there are often some solo fishermen who don't want to pay attention to people.

Last night, I had good luck, and after a while, I caught a big guy.

I took the net and copied it while I was fishing.

What I didn't expect was that the fish hadn't copied it, but accidentally knocked my lamp into the water.

This lamp is waterproof, quite expensive, and I secretly bought it from my wife.

I couldn't care about the fish anymore, so I quickly rolled up my trousers and went into the water to catch them.

As soon as I entered the water, I felt that the water was very cold, bitterly cold, and the water was not so cold in winter.

Just as I was bending down to get the lamp, I heard a sound in the reeds opposite.

I looked up.

The man in the reeds by the river across stood up.

He jumped into the river and swam towards me.

Before I could understand what he was going to do, he was already swimming to my feet.

He grabbed me by the foot and dragged me into the middle of the river.

The water in the middle of the river was so deep that I couldn't swim.

If I had been dragged by him, I wouldn't have survived.

I struggled and beat him hard, but I couldn't break free.

His hands are particularly strong, like vices.

I feel like I'm going to die.

Fortunately, at this time, a big brother appeared.

Big Brother looks like he's forty or fifty years old. He pulled me by the hand.

I don't know why, but as soon as Big Brother grabbed my hand, the man let go and stopped dragging me into the middle of the river.

I went back to shore, and before I could thank Big Brother, Big Brother told me to hurry away.

I was really scared out of my guts, and I did whatever Big Brother said.

I didn't even take the rod and ran away.

I went home and slept and I calmed down.

At noon today, taking advantage of the lunch break, I took a leave of absence and went there to pick up my things.

It's really out of the way, and not many people go.

My stuff is still there, my fishing rod is still on the shore, and my waterproof light is still soaked in the water.

But this time, I really didn't dare to go into the water.

I'm going to take the rod and leave.

As soon as I picked up the rod, I noticed that the rod was heavy.

I thought to myself, can't yesterday's big fish still be there?

Little by little, I reeled in the rod, and a small whirlpool appeared on the surface of the water, and some mud and sand gushed up, as if something had been pulled out of the silt at the bottom of the river.

The thing was freed from the shackles of the silt at the bottom of the river, and under the buoyancy of the water, it was much lighter, and it slowly floated up by itself without me pulling it.

Its outlines are getting clearer and clearer.

Gradually, I saw clearly, as if it were a person.

Eventually, a swollen face appeared in front of me.

His eyes were still open.

He's looking at me! ”

After the man finished speaking, he left.

Wei Da Belly handed me a cup of tea.

"Little official, what do you think about this matter?" He asked me.

"What do you think?

Isn't it just a water ghost looking for a stand-in?

What's so unusual?

Did you, Captain Wei, bring me here? ”

I complained.

Wei Da Belly smiled mysteriously and said:

"Do you know who that water ghost is?"

"Who?" I was stunned for a moment.

"God counts Lee!" Wei Da Belly said.

"God counts Lee?" I can't believe it.

"Do you know who the big brother who saved Zheng Changping is?" Wei Dayu asked again.

"Who?"

"Oh, I don't know.

I asked the technical department to make a mock portrait of Zheng Changping.

However, Zheng Changping only met this big brother last night.

It's only been less than a day, but he can't remember what that big brother looks like!

Little official, don't you say it's strange? ”

By the time I finished writing this chapter, it was past two o'clock, and my head was starting to get dizzy again.

Stop talking and sleep.

Finally, ask for a collection and flowers.
