The demons who hide in the shadows never give me a chance to breathe, and they carry out their nefarious plans in the shadows.

"Cousin, why did you come here alone?"

Wang Haitang's voice sounded suddenly, I turned around, she was wearing bar work clothes, giving me a very different feeling, her whole person exuded a feeling of enjoying her current work, which made me feel very gratified, she really didn't lie to me, she really liked this job.

"Since it opened, I, the owner, have not come in to experience the service of the bar, so I came to enjoy it tonight."

"It turned out to be here to inspect the work." Wang Haitang tilted his head behind his back and smiled at me, "Then call me at any time if you need anything." ”

"Okay, go get busy!" She happily turned around and went to serve customers at another table.

I looked at the cocktail in the glass, the green color, the gradient feeling, like the sadness in my heart, little by little to the depths of my soul.

Xue Xiaxia, how are you doing now?

Think about it carefully, I am indeed very unmanly, a girl has already taken such an initiative, and I cowardly retreated, the most important thing is that my concession did not exchange for her safety, but made her implicated.

In the blink of an eye, another 5 days passed, and no valuable clues were found in the entire city of Qiu Ying, so I decided to start searching for her traces within a radius of 1,140 kilometers.

At noon that day, I was thinking about the search plan in my office, and the map in front of me was a mess of my sketches, but I still didn't have a clear direction.

The phone vibrated suddenly, interrupting my thoughts.

It was Huang Jin's mother who called, and I immediately became nervous.

"Auntie......"

"Xiao Zhang, are you busy now? I want to tell you something. The other person's voice seemed a little nervous, but she tried to restrain herself.

"It's okay Auntie, just say it."

"The amulet you gave us before suddenly disappeared yesterday, I searched for a day and didn't find it, I felt that something was wrong and quickly called you, sorry, I really didn't mean to."

"The amulet is missing?" I was amazed.

Huang Jin's mother said that yesterday morning she got up to go out to buy groceries, and found that the amulet was missing, she looked around, and then checked the child's amulet, and found that the child's amulet was also missing, she remembered that when she went to bed the night before, she put the child in her underwear, and it was absolutely impossible to forget to throw it elsewhere.

Her own talisman was the same, she had always been carefully placed in the pocket of her underwear, and she hurriedly asked Huang Jin again, but she didn't expect Huang Jin's talisman to be gone.

However, Huang Jin's attitude was particularly indifferent, she felt that the loss of the talisman was not a big deal.

According to Huang Jin's mother, Huang Jin returned to the police station to continue working on the second day of Lin Tonghua's burial, and she was able to understand that first, her work as a forensic doctor was indeed very busy, and second, her immediate work could also divert her attention, and the fulfilling work made her less sad.

I immediately thought of the automatic dissolution of the formation that had been placed outside their neighborhood before, and I thought there must be a huge conspiracy in it.

"Auntie, don't worry, I'll come over as soon as possible, and if there is anything, you can call me in time."

"Okay, okay, Xiao Zhang, then it's really bothering you, will there be anything else in our family?" She stammered, her tone revealing deep concern.

"It's hard for me to say this, but you must be vigilant, and Huang Jin also calls her to tell her about it, so that she can pay attention to all kinds of things, and you must not take it lightly."

"Yes, what I'm most worried about is Huang Jin's situation, after all, her job is so special, she deals with those dead corpses every day, in case something contaminated with bad luck is the same as Lin Tonghua, I don't think the rest is so important."

I can understand the old man's thoughts, what I am most worried about now is Huang Jin's situation, she looks so similar to Bingyu, if they are really inextricably linked, then she is indeed very dangerous now.

Huang Jin's mother also told me that she has been dreaming of Lin Tonghua recently, although there is nothing very special, just a very daily life, but she always feels very unsure.

I comforted her a few words, and the old man was reasonable, and did not continue to dwell on this topic with me, said a few words to let me take care of my body, and hung up the phone.

I put the map in front of me aside, got up to find Zhao Heizi, and told him that I was going to Huailu as soon as possible, and something might happen there.

Zhao Heizi was surprised, he folded his arms and frowned, "But now that the whereabouts of Man Man and Xue Xiaxia have not been figured out, haven't you already planned to start the search within a radius of 1,140 kilometers?" Suddenly changing plans, will you fall into their trap? ”

"No need, I'll go over tomorrow, the situation on Huang Jin's side is very complicated, the talisman is gone, and the previous formation has been automatically lifted, this is a very dangerous signal, I have to go over and take a look."

"Then ......" Zhao Heizi paused, thought about it and nodded in favor of my decision.

Huailu is really a place that has a complex relationship with me.

I took a look at tomorrow's high-speed rail, only at 11 o'clock in the morning, it will be more troublesome to take planes and trains, and it is very impractical to drive, so I booked a ticket.

In the evening, I told Wang Haitang that I was going out for a few days, let her pay attention to herself, and if there was anything, call me immediately, or find Zhao Heizi to solve it.

Wang Haitang was unusual, he didn't ask me where I was going, he just nodded very calmly.

Early in the morning, I was packing up my things and getting ready to go out, when Qian Siming suddenly called.

"Mr. Zhang, Manman, she ...... She's on my estate and I've found her! ”

I frowned, "What? Did you find her? ”

"Yes, my people saw her in the wasteland of the suburbs before, and she was lying there dying, so they took her back to my manor, and I didn't dare to let my wife know about it."

Qian Siming was embarrassed and said that her wife was also arranging for someone to find Man Man during this time, and once she found Man Man, she would be killed directly, or sent to a foreign no-man's land to fend for herself, in short, she didn't want to keep her, after all, Man Man was a harmful vixen to Mrs. Qian, and she didn't need to sympathize with her.

My plan to leave was interrupted, and I had to go over to see how Manman was doing, after all, we had been trying to find her whereabouts for so many days.

Qian Siming's manor house is quiet and beautiful on a hill in the suburbs, but it is not open to the public, only as his personal meeting place.

I immediately told Zhao Heizi that I had to go over to see Manman first, and the plan might be delayed, and now it was less than an hour and a half before the departure of the high-speed train.

Zhao Heizi was also surprised, he didn't expect Man Man to appear on his own, and he reminded me to pay attention to it, Man Man was likely to be blackened by the demon.

I drove for more than forty minutes to get to the gate of the manor.

Qian Siming came out to pick me up in person, with an anxious face, "Mr. Zhang, you're here, it's great, I haven't known what to do, and now you're here to save me." ”

"It's not enough to save you, let's see how she's doing first." I looked at him with a smile, and he immediately became a little embarrassed.

Qian Siming said that she was lying in the wasteland at the time, wearing the clothes that fell into the water that day, a little dirty, and her hair was messy, as if she had been beaten up, and brought back for the doctor at the manor to give her an infusion, and she woke up in ten minutes.

The doctor preliminarily diagnosed that she was fine, but she was mentally weak, and she had not eaten enough in the past few days, as for other external injuries, she had not been found for the time being, and the internal injuries were not clear, and she had to wait until she woke up and went to the hospital for a detailed examination.

I asked him how Manman was feeling, and he said that he was very calm, and as usual, he asked her where she had been before, and she only said that she did not remember.

Man Man was arranged in the room at the end of the third floor, Qian Siming pushed the door with me and walked in, she immediately sat up from the bed, there was no surprise in her eyes, as if she had already known that I would come.

She changed into pajamas and wore her hair loose, probably because of the drip, she looked pretty good.

"You're here." She smiled faintly at me, lifted the quilt and sat on the edge of the bed, looking very relaxed and calm.

Qian Siming closed the door with his backhand, "Tell Mr. Zhang what happened to you in the past few days." ”

Man Man immediately bit his lip and shook his head slowly.

I glanced at Qian Siming, and he immediately understood, "Okay, I'll go out first, and you can talk." ”

Qian Siming went out, there were only the two of us in the room, and her expression became much relaxed.

I walked over and sat down on the chair next to her, frowned slightly and asked, "We've been looking for you all this time, can you tell me the truth now?" I promise confidentiality. ”

Man Man tilted his head and smiled at me charmingly, and said ambiguously, "I miss you so much." ”

I was stunned, she looked exactly the same as before, as if she hadn't encountered the weird experience before.

"I'm telling you something very serious, and it's likely that your life will be violated, so you have to tell me the truth, what happened to you that day and after?" I looked her in the eye, but she didn't dodge her gaze in the slightest.

"I'm just very angry, if you don't promise me, I'll jump into the river, I really didn't expect you to pull me, it seems that you are really cold-blooded." She pursed her lips and rolled her eyes in displeasure.

I frowned, but didn't interrupt her.

"I jumped into the river and soon someone dragged me away, I was so confused that I couldn't see anything clearly, I didn't know what was going on, it was very uncomfortable to choke on the water, I could only feel that I was being dragged to a place, there was no drowning in me, it was comfortable, I fell asleep."

"And then?"

"Then I woke up and found myself in a very strange room, like a cave, but well lit." She frowned as she recalled.
