Chapter 82: The Scissors Girl
The next day, Zhang Xiaoluo rarely appeared in the obstetrics and gynecology department early in the morning and bought a big bag of snacks.
According to him, we have money, and we have a foodie daughter-in-law, who will spend it if we don't spend money on her? As a man who often needs to go out, you must stabilize your backyard first!
After the notice of the attached hospital came down, Zhang Xiaoluo became the attending physician of the obstetrics and gynecology department as he wished, although the attending doctor is also considered to be the bottom of the medical pyramid, he is still very satisfied with the speed of his promotion.
Brother is still young, and sooner or later he will climb on top of the director of the branch university!
Zhang Xiaoluo thought so.
Zhang Xiaoluo is happy, but Zhang Yu has been a little unhappy recently, because she has begun to faintly see those unclean things again.
She told Zhang Xiaoluo about her situation, and Zhang Xiaoluo had to try to temporarily cover her eyes that day. But he knew that this time the Celestial Eye should be obscured for a shorter time.
Maybe I really have to take the time to accompany Zhang Yu to meet Liu Yifan, who is inexplicably two generations higher than himself.
In order to stabilize his backyard and to see Liu Yifan in the future, Zhang Xiaoluo entered the cinema for the first time in his life, followed by Zhang Yu, who was holding a big bag of snacks.
Zhang Xiaoluo wondered why this kind of bubble love drama, which was obviously "sad for the sake of new words", could make those girls cry so much. Seeing that other male partners were crying with their female companions, Zhang Xiaoluo had no choice but to pretend to wipe the corners of his eyes a few times.
It was already more than 11 o'clock at night when the movie ended, Zhang Yu went to the bathroom, and Zhang Xiaoluo had to wait at the staircase of the movie theater.
Through the glass window at the end of the corridor, Zhang Xiaoluo looked at the city that had been noisy for a day and gradually fell into a deep sleep.
The lights are as yellow as beans, and the neon lights are like blood.
There was the sound of hurried footsteps behind him, Zhang Xiaoluo frowned slightly, and turned around.
Zhang Yu ran out of the bathroom with an undisguised look of panic on his face.
"Inside...... There's a woman with scissors in there......"
Zhang Yu grabbed Zhang Xiaoluo's arm tightly, raised his hand and pointed to the entrance of the bathroom, and said in a low voice with a trembling voice.
After returning from Crockpot Village, Zhang Yu had a lot of courage. After being alone with the house ghost for so long, she knew that not all ghosts are harmful, so she didn't see the ghosts as she did at the beginning.
"Scissors?"
Zhang Xiaoluo was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself that his foodie daughter-in-law is not afraid of ghosts, but afraid of scissors? But this is a movie theater, how can you come to the movie and bring a pair of scissors?
"Okay, it's not too early, I'll send you home!"
Zhang Xiaoluo gently pulled Zhang Yu up and walked to the elevator not far away.
It's been a while since the movie ended, and the whole hall is not as crowded as it used to be.
"Her scissors are so big...... Brother Luo, besides, I seem to smell a lot of blood......"
There was still a slight sense of panic in Zhang Yu's words.
Zhang Xiaoluo patted Zhang Yu on the shoulder and pulled her into the elevator.
Standing in the elevator, Zhang Xiaoluo saw a woman wearing a big coat, a scarf, long hair, and a mask slowly walking out of the women's bathroom from the crack in the slowly closing elevator door.
She glanced far inside the elevator, then dragged the almost half-human-tall scissors behind her and strode to the dimly lit staircase on the other side.
Zhang Xiaoluo didn't expect that the big scissors that Zhang Yu said in his mouth would be so big. But he didn't plan to find out, since Zhang Yu came out of the bathroom safely, there was no need for him to ask for trouble.
Zhang Xiaoluo doesn't value the life and death of others, he is not a savior.
Sending Zhang Yu home, Zhang Xiaoluo lowered his head and thought for a while, then gave up the idea of taking a taxi back. It's not too far from Bluestone Lane, it's almost half an hour's walk, and even if Zhang Xiaoluo is willing, he can run back in a few minutes.
Except for the time when he was looking for the ghost baby, Zhang Xiaoluo walked alone on the dim road in J City for the first time in the middle of the night.
The hustle and bustle had faded as night fell, and now the city was filled with the lights, the sin and the unknown in the darkness.
Compared with the day, Zhang Xiaoluo prefers a dead night like now. Dealing with ghosts is not as complicated as dealing with people, destroying or being destroyed, that's all.
Walk through this remote street and you'll see Bluestone Lane.
Zhang Xiaoluo lowered his head and walked slowly in the dark street, and several green-skinned garbage cans standing on the corner of the street exuded a sour smell, adding a reality to the black and white night.
At the end of the street there is a concrete telephone pole, on which the street lamp has long since lost its brightness due to disrepair, and a few dim lights are emitted lazily.
A late man on a bicycle was bending under the telephone pole fumbling with his bicycle chain, cursing in a low voice.
A long, narrow figure slowly approached from a distance, standing in front of the middle-aged man who was bending down to pull the chain out of the gap in the gears.
The only light was blocked, and the man looked up at the masked woman in front of him.
Zhang Xiaoluo stood in the middle of the street, looking at the figure dragging the big scissors under the street lamp at the end of the street, and looking at the blood flowing from the scissors, frowning slightly.
"Coincidence? Or is it just for me? ”
The man who returned that night was already lying in a pool of blood, and most of his entire neck had been cut off by scissors.
Zhang Xiaoluo turned around and walked out of the street along the way he came, bypassing the corner where the man died. Although Zhang Xiaoluo couldn't bear it, he still turned around and left without hesitation.
The Yin and Yang people of Xuanmen are to catch ghosts and drive away evil spirits, not criminal police officers who maintain law and order.
Back in Bluestone Lane, Zhang Xiaoluo did not open the wooden door. Old Zhang Tou should have come back a long time ago, but there has been no news so far, which made Zhang Xiaoluo can't help but be cautious and suspend his work of repaying wishes for ghosts.
The last time he was born into the underworld, he took a business from Huangquan Meng Po, and if it was completed, he could get a lot of Yin Virtue, which was also the reason why Zhang Xiaoluo dared to suspend business and sit on the empty mountain.
After following Zhi Fei for a routine ward round the next day, Zhang Xiaoluo went to the nurse's station to listen for a long time, but he didn't hear anything about the murder in this gossip news distribution center, and even went to the director's office and glanced at the morning report.
There have been no reports of last night's killings.
Zhang Xiaoluo was a little puzzled in his heart, he didn't believe that the body of the man whose throat was cut would not be found. What's more, what age is it now, and if there is such a murder, you can't cover it if you want to.
After walking around the department a few times, when passing by the director's office, Zhang Xiaoluo actually saw an acquaintance sitting in Zhi Fei's office.
Deputy Director of the Public Security Bureau, Zhao Jun.
Zhao Jun obviously saw Zhang Xiaoluo as well, he chatted with Zhi Fei a few more words, then stood up and walked out.
"Haha! Brother Zhang! ”
Zhao Jun looked at Zhang Xiaoluo, who was standing outside the nurse's desk and was chatting with nurse Liu Qiaoqiao, and said hello loudly, laughing loudly, stretching out his arms and striding towards Zhang Xiaoluo.
Zhang Xiaoluo looked at Zhang Jun, who seemed to be coming up to hug him, and frowned slightly.
"This guy can't be backing the mountain, right? Come up and hug ...... Am I acquainted with him to this point? ”
In fact, Zhao Jun can't be blamed, who called Director Zhao Now is the time when the spring breeze is proud.
Zhang Xiaoluo once gave Zhao Jun a hexagram in the Ding Restaurant, and Zhao Jun still despised this young obstetrics and gynecology doctor who was not very old but had an old-fashioned face.
But these days, with the arrival of unexpected news, it really responded to Zhang Xiaoluo's words.
"The gentleman can not leave his position for the time being, the wind and clouds will disperse, and he will be satisfied!"
Although the dust has not yet officially settled, Zhao Jun knows that he may well be the biggest winner in this change. That's why he was so out of shape after seeing Zhang Xiaoluo.
"Why did Brother Zhao have time to come to our department to play today?"
Zhang Xiaoluo smiled and hugged Zhao Jun, and then asked. There is no way, Zhao Jun is a vital link in the network he wants to build, just hug it.
"Dude makes fun of me! Didn't I accompany your sister-in-law to do a postpartum check-up? By the way, your sister-in-law has always said that you are my son's nobleman, and one day you will go to the house to sit! ”
Zhang Xiaoluo heard the meaning of his friendship from Zhao Jun's words, and Zhang Xiaoluo knew that it should be his coin hexagram that had an effect.
"If you have the chance, you must visit my brother and sister-in-law, by the way, Brother Zhao ......"
Zhang Xiaoluo suddenly thought that if he wanted to inquire about the murder last night, there was no more appropriate way to ask the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau in charge of criminal investigation in front of him.
"Brother Zhao, last night...... Is there a case going on? ”
Zhang Xiaoluo pulled Zhao Jun into the corridor next to the elevator and asked in a low voice.
"The case? Haha, fights, robberies and robberies happen every day, how can my brother care about this! ”
Zhao Jun saw Zhang Xiaoluo's mysterious look, thinking that he had another friend who had entered the bureau and wanted to ask him for help. As a result, Zhang Xiaoluo's inexplicable inquiry actually made him laugh.
"No, Brother Zhao, I mean...... Homicide case! ”
Zhang Xiaoluo stopped beating around the bush and asked directly.
"Homicide?"
The smile on Zhao Jun's face gradually converged, and he looked Zhang Xiaoluo up and down for a while, his brows gradually furrowed.
After Zhang Xiaoluo asked, he really remembered to accompany his daughter-in-law to check in the morning, and before going out, he received a report that an extremely bad murder had occurred. However, before such a case is investigated, the media is generally not allowed to report indiscriminately.
The media didn't report it, how did Zhang Xiaoluo know?
"Brother, don't tell me you're an eyewitness to last night's murder!"
Zhao Jun did not believe that Zhang Xiaoluo would be the murderer, but since he knew about it, it was likely that he was an eyewitness.
Zhang Xiaoluo looked at Zhao Jun's serious face and nodded helplessly.
"Huh? Are you really an eyewitness to the female corpse in the women's washroom in the movie theater last night? ”
"I don't think so, but ...... Well? Wait, cinema restrooms? No, I'm ......."
Zhang Xiaoluo suddenly thought of the figure he had seen in the elevator dragging big scissors and walking out of the bathroom of the movie theater, and the whole person was not good.
"Women's Restroom...... I am an eyewitness...... It's a bit hard to explain! ”
