Chapter 52: Light
I took the deposit and left the hotel in a daze, this matter today is simply too weird, I have to go back to Ma Ming to make it clear.
In the hall on the first floor of the office building of Chaoyang Food Company, Ma Ming and Ding Qi were packing up some newly bought daily necessities. Come and help us clean up together, we estimate that we will have to live here for ten days and half a month. ”
I had to go over and clean up with them first, and I took advantage of Ding Qi's time to go to the toilet and asked Ma Ming: "Didn't you just let me go out with Ding Qi?" ”
Ma Ming looked puzzled: "When did it happen, why don't I have any impression at all?" ”
At this time, Ding Qi came back, and I couldn't say anything, so I could only ask Ding Qi on the side: "That Ding Qi, where did you go this afternoon?" ”
"Me?" Ding Qi was surprised, "Didn't Master Ma ask me to buy some things and prepare them at noon today, so I went to the supermarket opposite." ”
I sighed and didn't say anything more, I could only say two things casually and ask Ding Qi to buy them again.
After Ding Qi left, I told Ma Ming what happened this afternoon.
"You mean I let you go out with Ding Qi?" Ma Ming thought for a moment after hearing this, and then continued: "At noon, I did ask you to follow Ding Qi, but I didn't say that, I asked you to follow Ding Qi to the supermarket to buy something, I was afraid that he wouldn't be able to take it alone if there were too many things." ”
Ma Ming and I looked at each other, unable to figure out what the situation was.
After thinking for a while, Ma Ming looked around at the office building, looked at the quiet void in front of him, and said in a low voice: "If this is the case, it seems that the things in this building are indeed difficult to deal with, and they can affect people's minds in broad daylight." It's good that you have something on you, otherwise I'm afraid it would be a lot of bad luck today. ”
"And that Gong Zheng, I always feel that something is wrong with her." Thinking of what happened after meeting Gong Zheng these two times, I felt scared for a while, and thought in my heart that it would be better to take Ma Wen with me, and Ma Wen could remind herself when I was distracted.
"Gong Zheng, this woman is not easy to deal with, we have too little contact with her." Ma Ming paused, suddenly his eyes lit up, and he leaned in front of me: "Let's do this tonight......"
Ma Ming lowered his voice and said a few words to me, and after listening to it, I felt that it was indeed a good idea. If you want to understand a person, you have to find a way to find a breakthrough, and because of the improper relationship between Gong Zheng and Ding Qi, it is not too difficult to pry something out.
After Ding Qi came back, we put the three sleeping bags in the hall and sorted them out, and went out to eat together.
Then this matter is much easier to do, Ma Ming and I originally planned to scare Ding Qi tonight and threaten him to say something.
Looking at Ding Qi lying on the table with a flushed face on the other side of the table, I really couldn't figure it out, how could Peng Zheng work by his side for so long, he was just a dirt bag, and he couldn't do anything but cause trouble.
Ding Qi raised his glass to us with a big tongue, "Ma, Master Ma, come, let's, let's continue drinking!" ”
I saw that it was about the same time, so I put down the wine glass, sat down next to Ding Qi, smiled evilly and lowered my voice and asked, "Xiao Ding, how do you feel about the boss lady of your company?" ”
"Old, boss lady?" Hearing the three words of the proprietress, Ding Qi's eyes widened violently, "Of course it's good!" ”
"Where's the good?" I continued to ask.
Ding Qi's eyes narrowed, a little confused, "The person is good, and the figure and figure are also good." ”
I let out a long sound, picked up the wine glass on the table and touched it with Ding Qi's hand, lowered my voice and asked him meaningfully, "What about in bed?" ”
"Hostess? In bed? Ding Qi repeated these two words, as if he didn't understand what I was asking.
After two seconds, he suddenly reacted, and threw the wine glass in his hand violently, his face was full of horror, he waved his hands, leaned behind the stool, as if he had seen something terrible, he shouted loudly, "No! No! Don't come here! You don't want to come here!! ”
Ma Ming and I didn't expect this to be the case, seeing that the people eating around me had all looked over, I hurriedly threw away the wine glass in my hand, grabbed Ding Qi's hand, and comforted him: "It's okay, she's not here, she's not here." ”
In this way, Ding Qi shouted hoarsely again, suddenly quieted down, buried his face in his hands and cried.
I looked at Ma Ming, it seemed that I couldn't eat this meal. Ma Ming stood up and apologized to the people around him: "I'm sorry everyone, my brother drank too much, everyone understand." ”
Then he called the waiter to settle the bill, and the two of us walked out of the restaurant with one arm of Ding Qi and carried him back to the company hall.
Looking at Ding Qi, whose body was still trembling because of crying, I felt helpless, "Is Gong Zheng so terrible, he was scared like this?" ”
"It's not as simple as you think, if she doesn't get involved in the incident of this office building, it will be fine, but do you think this is possible?" Ma Ming took out a cigarette and lit it, and handed me another one.
I took the cigarette and took a puff, "Unlikely, this Gong Zheng is weird, it seems that we can only wait for Ding Qi to wake up tomorrow and ask him what is going on." ”
It was already the middle of the night, so we simply washed up and lay down in our sleeping bags. Over there, Ding Qi's mood also stabilized, and he had already fallen asleep.
Today is the first night I spent in this office building, and I prayed before going to bed to hope that I could spend peace.
Ma Wen is not around, after all, she is still a little lonely, I think I must go back tomorrow to bring Ma Wen over. Thinking about it, I slowly fell asleep.
That night, I was woken up by Ma Ming.
In the bright moonlight, I saw Ma Ming squatting next to me, with his index finger to his mouth, making a "shhh
I quietly got up, put on my coat, and looked at him with a puzzled look, meaning to ask him what had happened?
Ma Ming stretched out his hand and pointed to Ding Qi's sleeping bag, I turned my head to look, there was no one there, Ding Qi was not there.
Ma Ming pointed to the staircase of the hall on the first floor, I was almost startled, there was a black figure, standing there, looking at the height and size, some like Ding Qi.
The black figure circled around the staircase a few times before slowly going upstairs. His movements up the stairs were stiff, not quite like a normal person.
At the same time, I suddenly smelled a smell that was beginning to fill the hall, and it smelled strange, not bad but not good.
After Ma Ming and I looked at each other, Ma Ming took out two masks from the bag on the side, handed me one, and motioned for me to put it on. When everything was ready, we quietly followed.
This office building has a total of five floors, but we went up from the first floor to the fifth floor, and we didn't see Ding Qi anymore, and the corridors on each floor were empty, and there was not even a figure.
I had to shout with courage, "Ding Qi? ”
There was no response, just a little echo.
I was a little scared, and leaned towards Ma Ming: "This building is too gloomy, Peng Zhengzhao's people can only come to work tomorrow, you said that there are only three of us here tonight, Ding Qi is gone, what if something happens?" ”
Ma Ming shook his head and said, "No, let's go to the hall on the first floor first, and if there is any emergency, it is better to go out." ”
Just as we were halfway downstairs, we suddenly heard the miserable cry of a woman from the roof, and we couldn't help but shiver in the silence of the night.
I looked at Ma Ming, pointed upstairs, and asked him softly, "Are we going or not?" ”
Since the last time I bought the house, I've gotten a lot bolder.
Ma Ming unzipped his backpack, took out something from it by the moonlight and handed it to me, it was a yellow rune paper, Ma Ming let me stuff it into the breast pocket of my shirt, he put one himself, and then we went upstairs.
On the fifth floor, the cry suddenly stopped, and the two of us stopped at the window of the stairwell, hesitating whether to continue going up.
At this moment, a dark figure flashed through the window in front of us, followed by a "bang".
The two of us were stunned for a few seconds before we reacted and hurriedly ran downstairs. Something fell from the building, so it couldn't be that someone jumped off the building again.
When we returned to the hall on the first floor, we found that Ding Qi had just sat up from his sleeping bag, and he asked us with a blank face, "What did you two do?" Why didn't I see anyone when I woke up? ”
We didn't have time to talk to him, and we didn't have time to ask him where he had just been, so I yelled at him, "Quick, get up, there's an accident!" ”
Ding Qi immediately got up from his sleeping bag, "What's wrong?" Was it that voice just now, I heard a 'bang' and woke me up. ”
"yes, hurry up!" I replied casually, then opened the door of the hall and ran out, Ma Ming and Ding Qi following closely behind me.
We went around to the side of the office building, outside the wall of the stairwell. From a long distance we could see something lying in the clearing, and we stopped, and no one dared to come forward to look at it.
It was Ma Ming who was the calmest, and he struggled to order Ding Qi: "Xiao Ding, where is the switch of the street lights here, turn on the lights first." ”
Ding Qi answered, walked to a corner not far away, reached out and snapped the switch, and the light turned on.
But before we could see what the black mass was, the street lamp flashed twice and went out. Subsequently, all the lights in the office building were turned off, and there was no light here except for the moon overhead.
