CH.8 I Am Among You (5)
Lu Ming covered his face, and tears oozed from the gap between his fingers: "I...... I...... I don't know how to say it! What a sin......" He howled for a long time to completely stabilize his emotions, but his voice became eerie: "That's in ...... In the winter of last year, the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee wanted to perform cecal surgery, and I was a graduate student from other places, and I had done this surgery with my supervisor, so I was more experienced, so I ...... The hospital received instructions from the municipal party committee and designated me to do it...... When I received the phone call, I immediately left for surgery at the hospital. But halfway through...... Passing by the scene of a car accident. It was very desolate, there were no street lights, there were few people on the road, and onlookers were ...... There was probably only **, and I couldn't see the faces of those onlookers clearly at night, but I was wearing a white coat at the time, which was too conspicuous, so someone shouted at me and asked you if you weren't a doctor? Go and show it to you! …… I was short-sighted, and I could only vaguely see a huddled figure on the ground, and I couldn't see the face clearly, and I didn't know what the injuries were. I...... I'm not going to die! But I really have something important to do, and it's about my future! It's the same life, if I save the person in front of me, not to mention whether I can save it or not, I will lose my job! If I go to the hospital in time to operate on the secretary, then I will have a bright future! You can't blame me for being selfish, anyone else would do it! Again...... Those people also complain that I don't have a sense of public morality, what about themselves? They weren't worried about the injured, they just wanted to see the excitement......"
The high-pitched voice accompanied by the strange experience made the hairs stand on end when you listen to it. Zhang Kunyue and the three of them were all colorless. Zhang Kunyue trembled his purple lips: "What does this have to do with today's events?" I...... I've been in a car accident too......"
Nie Xiulan seemed to be hinted at, and also said, "Yes...... I had a similar experience, but I can't remember where...... I just remember that it was also dark at the time......"
Cen Kai's expression was miserable: "I have also seen a car accident, it was on a winter night, and there were ** onlookers present!" ”
Zhang Kunyue twitched and said, "Yes...... No wonder Qiu Yan's reporter's news made me feel familiar...... "He gradually recalled the scene a year ago, the sky was so dark that he couldn't see his five fingers, and the person didn't know whether it was a man or a woman, and he didn't know why he was injured, lying on the street, shrinking into a ball in pain, and making a faint **. Due to the lack of light, the ** individuals who gathered to watch each other couldn't see each other's faces clearly, and they argued fiercely, saying that they had important things to do: the teacher said that he was going to teach in a hurry, the student said that he had to hurry up to go to the evening self-study, the civil servant said that he had important leaders to accompany the wine, and the driver said that it was not easy for him to earn hard money, so he had to hurry up to solicit customers...... Everyone has a reason to refuse to reach out to help, and no one is willing to rescue the wounded, but they just prevaricate with each other and shirk responsibility......
They began to fall into the gray memories they shared, and they were silent for a long time. Dong Yan looked at the watch anxiously, and put down the megaphone several times, but he didn't want to interrupt the communication of the four people upstairs as a last resort, so as not to have the opposite effect.
On the cold and windy rooftop, everyone felt embarrassed, and at the same time, a terrible thought flashed into their minds. Nie Xiulan's eyes widened suddenly, and she said, "None of us saw the other onlookers clearly...... Is it possible that the nine of us were spectators at that time? …… But who is that man on earth? We probably don't know...... I just remember people wrapping him in the middle...... This person...... Right among us! ”
I see! "I am among you" does not mean that the killer is hidden among the nine of them, that "I" actually refers to the scene of the car accident a year ago, the injured person who was watched by them!
Zhang Kunyue couldn't hold back any longer, he took out his knife violently, let out a scream, snot and tears mixed with sweat, and yelled hysterically: "Don't come here!" Don't come here! I've had enough, totally enough! Let's make it clear...... I know that one of you is the soul of the dead! I confess that I was selfish and didn't help at the time, but it was just inaction, as for killing me to pay for my life? Don't even try to kill me! ”
Lu Ming was closest to Zhang Kunyue, maybe he didn't want to jump off the building anymore, or he didn't want to commit suicide at all, the desire to survive overwhelmed all emotions including fear, he stood on the edge of the roof, feeling that it was too dangerous, so he tried to move forward. Zhang Kunyue was stimulated, roared, and stabbed Lu Ming's abdomen with a knife, and immediately blood gushed like a spring! Lu Ming fell down screaming, clutching his abdomen, leaning against the wall and breathing hard. Zhang Kunyue was stunned by this momentary change and his own behavior, and staggered back a few steps.
Nie Xiulan and Cen Kai were so frightened that they cried, and their screams were blown in all directions by the wind from the rooftop. Lu Ming's face gradually became lifeless, his weak lips trembled, and his voice was as thin as a mosquito's foot: "This ...... That's the fate...... I've been using knives all my life...... Give someone ...... Surgery, but now it's ...... Dead in ...... "He was like an ascetic who knew his fate, quietly waiting for death to come."......
Although the knife was not deep, if it was allowed to bleed, it would die sooner or later. But Zhang Kunyue, Nie Xiulan, and Cen Kai were all emotional, how could they calculate that another hour had passed unconsciously, but Lu Ming didn't seem to die immediately, so whose life did the dull bell represent at this time?
The police dog smelled blood and barked vigilantly. Dong Yan heard the screams upstairs, and his heart sank, and without hesitation, he rushed into the stairs with the team members, and finally kicked open the door of the rooftop. Zhang Kunyue could no longer stand the slightest fright, the corners of his mouth drooled, and he waved the knife in his hand in anger, perhaps because of this, the gun in the hand of a young police officer rang out.
The whistling of bullets pierces the sky!
Zhang Kunyue's forehead was pierced, and his body slammed into the ground, instantly staining the cement bricks under his body. A hooligan ruffian died at gunpoint by the people's police very reasonably. Nie Xiulan finally ran out of energy and fell to the ground, while Cen Kai stared blankly at the body that was pierced by the bullet.
Seeing that Nie Xiulan and Cen Kai were greatly stimulated, Dong Yan comforted him a few words, and then said solemnly: "Our people have arrived at Qiu Yan's residence, Qiu Yan did not die according to the law, but stayed at home well." This shows that this law has been broken, and according to the current situation, Zhang Kunyue is the most suspected of murder, because he was dragged by you and could not commit the crime. You come with me to the bureau to make a note and then you can go home. ”
Two hours later, Nie Xiulan and Cen Kai walked out of the police station, they didn't look like teachers and students from their backs, but like a pair of sisters and brothers.
Cen Kai no longer had any frightened expression, and asked with a relaxed face: "Sister, why do you want to stay alive?" ”
Nie Xiulan smiled: "Silly brother, leave a living mouth to let the game continue." We're going to go to Qiu Yan now, get her seriously injured, and then put her on a deserted road and wait for the passers-by to come and watch, and then we'll blend in with the onlookers for the next round of the game. Hehe, I really want to hurry up and see what the next group of visitors looks like......"
In the moonlight, the spirits of a pair of siblings fluttered strangely, and their bodies gradually disappeared into the beautiful night.
"Both, I saw the whole process, it was a wonderful performance. Come with me, I need the support of both of you. ”
The sister and brother looked at the thin young man in his early twenties in front of him suspiciously, and Cen Kai asked hesitantly, "Are you...... Can you see us? Are you a banbreaker? Communicating with the dead should be what the Americas are good at...... Who are you? ”
"I don't know what you're talking about as a lifter." The boy lifted his gold-rimmed glasses, "I've seen hell with my own eyes, so I can see you." You are remarkable, you are just a faint brain wave that remains in this world, and you can still think carefully and plan like a living person, instead of a simple act of revenge driven by a simple and strong resentment, so I admire you and you are very useful to me. My name is Tan Jue, and I am the son of Mayor Tan. Don't you two enjoy playing this role-playing game? I can use this city under my father's jurisdiction as a platform for you to play to your heart's content. But in exchange, I want to know a little bit about your world. Don't be too surprised, I'm not just curious, I'm not willing to follow the vulgar path that my father paved for me through power and money, and I want to let my future influence the whole world. ”
Nie Xiulan whispered to her younger brother: "I heard that ordinary human beings will also undergo an acquired mutation when the world is about to change, and become the one who lifts the ban. This person...... It's not easy. ”
Cen Kai nodded: "Then we can talk." You...... There are four floating brain waves behind you, and they look very angry, are they your friends? How did he die? ”
Tan Jue glanced back at him coldly, and Sen Ran said, "They are my slaves. Let's go. ”
