Chapter 220: Promise 2
After entering the house, the room was very clean, a large writing desk, on which was piled with a thick stack of test papers, a stack of books, and a laptop, the computer was on, and it seemed that Lou Xiaoman was making a table of student grades.
There is a sofa, a low coffee table with a set of tea sets on it, a plate of apples, and at the entrance of the kitchen, a water dispenser, a standard living room, a bedroom, and a kitchen, with a small bathroom.
The three of us sat on the sofa, Lou Xiaoman was making tea for us, Huang Jun kept looking at everything around him, his body trembled slightly, and he kept looking towards the bedroom.
I could see that Huang Jun was very excited, and I hurriedly pressed his hand and winked at him.
"I take the liberty of asking, Mr. Lou, where did the injury on your face come from?"
As soon as I finished speaking, Huang Jun turned his head and glared at me angrily.
Lou Xiaoman's expression changed, her brows tightened, and I saw her hand holding the teapot, trembling faintly.
After pouring us three cups of tea, Lou Xiaoman took out a small bench from under the desk, sat down, lowered her head, and kept rubbing her hands, she was hesitating.
"Mr. Policeman, I said it a few months ago, I saw it, there is a ghost, classmate Su Xiaoxiao, it was dragged into the river by the ghost."
"What's going on? Can you tell us more about that? ”
As I spoke, Huang Jun became slightly excited, and his fists creaked.
"Oh, Mr. Lou, I remember that you didn't have this injury on your face before, could it be that you got it for the ghost?" Niu Quan asked, and this is also what Huang Jun and I care about.
Lou Xiaoman nodded.
Since Su Xiaoxiao entered the school, she has always had some problems with her academic performance, and Lou Xiaoman also asked the teachers to help her with tutoring, but maybe she was born with it, so she was not suitable for studying, and her grades have not been raised.
It wasn't until the second year of high school that Su Xiaoxiao and other classmates performed a dance at a school art fair, which won applause, and Lou Xiaoman also discovered that Su Xiaoxiao was quite talented, and when she danced, she looked very happy.
Seeing that in the second semester of the second semester of high school, Su Xiaoxiao's grades were still in a mess, Lou Xiaoman suggested that Su Xiaoxiao apply for art colleges and become a special student of the school, and this tuition fee was also paid by Lou Xiaoman himself.
"It's all my fault, I broke the agreement, and the agreement with Su Xiaoxiao."
Lou Xiaoman said, he actually cried, Huang Jun raised his hand, took out a pack of tissues, and handed it over tremblingly.
"Thank you."
Lou Xiaoman took it and wiped away her tears.
Originally, Lou Xiaoman and Su Xiaoxiao agreed not to tell their father until the end of the college entrance examination, because Su Peng's temper is more old-fashioned and a little hot, and he has been strict with Su Xiaoxiao since he was a child, and it is impossible to allow Su Xiaoxiao to apply for art colleges.
But Lou Xiaoman felt that he should still tell Su Peng, after all, he was Su Xiaoxiao's father.
One weekend morning, Lou Xiaoman personally went to Su Xiaoxiao's house to discuss with her father Su Peng, but in exchange for a quarrel, although Lou Xiaoman continued to argue with reason, but it still ended in an inability to reach an agreement.
On that day, in the afternoon, it was raining heavily, and Su Xiaoxiao had just come home from practice, so she quarreled with her father, ran out of the house, and never went back.
At that time, Su Peng called Lou Xiaoman, who braved the heavy rain and looked for Lou Xiaoman everywhere.
"And then?"
Lou Xiaoman said, tears rained down, lying on the table, crying.
"It's okay, it's okay, just tell us, we'll fix it." Huang Jun stood up and squatted next to Lou Xiaoman, constantly comforting him.
I fell into deep thought, and after a while, the bell rang at the end of the lunch break, and at 2 o'clock, Lou Xiaoman got up, ran into the bathroom, tidied up, and took the textbook.
"Mr. Policeman, you wait first, I can come back after 3 o'clock in the afternoon after class."
After Lou Xiaoman left, Huang Jun stood up and grabbed Niu Quanfa.
"Damn, what do you eat? Aren't you from the Ghost Burial Team? ”
I immediately got up and pressed Huang Jun's hand.
"I can't help it, my ability is low, there is still a way for ordinary ghosts, maybe when I reach the level of the Yellow Pages, I will have no recruitment, what do you want me to do? Brother Huang Jun, you have to be reasonable, if I can solve it, what do I expect you to do? ”
"Y'all shut up." I roared, and both of them sat down.
"Damn, whatever the hell it is, I'm not going to get around him, absolutely not." Huang Jun's fists creaked.
I nodded.
It wasn't until half past three, when we finished eating a plate of apples, that Lou Xiaoman came back, and after sitting down, Lou Xiaoman said.
"That day, it was raining heavily, I looked for a lot of places, asked many classmates, but I didn't find Su Xiaoxiao, and then I remembered, on the outskirts of the city, there is a backwater river, which has not been developed over there, and the two sides of the river are relatively empty, Su Xiaoxiao went there to practice before......"
Lou Xiaoman said, crying again.
"When I went there, Su Xiaoxiao was by the river, crying, and kept shouting at me, the teacher is a liar, I still remember ......"
Lou Xiaoman's face showed deep fear, and Huang Jun helped her.
"Tell me, what happened?"
At more than 6 o'clock, we came to the backwater river on the outskirts of the county, this river, clear to the bottom, because there is no source, there is no end, where the water flows from, for the time being, the river has been running through the county, out of the county, you can't see where it flows, so it is called the backwater river.
And the situation at that time, Lou Xiaoman said it, extremely scared, it was raining heavily, the river was surging, Su Xiaoxiao stood in the water, crying, in the dark river water, stretched out a hand, grabbed Su Xiaoxiao, and took her off.
Lou Xiaoman walked in and saw clearly, pulled Su Xiaoxiao hard, and walked towards the riverbank, but halfway through, Lou Xiaoman saw a human head, emerging from the water, and then a swollen and blue face, opened his mouth, and squirted a mouthful of water, and the water splashed on Lou Xiaoman's face.
Lou Xiaoman only felt that her cheeks were hot, screamed, and lost consciousness, and when she woke up, she was lying in the hospital, and the things that were splashed on her face were corrosive liquids, but what they were were were not detected.
Later, Lou Xiaoman told the police countless times about this, but what she said did not have any evidence to prove that the police regarded him as talking nonsense.
"Why is this happening, you don't know?"
I asked about Niu Quanfa, who scratched his head and squatted by the river.
"No, this kind of thing usually happens, Deputy Luo will notify me to go and see it, why haven't I received any notice?"
Looking at the flowing river, Huang Jun took off his shoes and walked in, but he didn't feel anything.
We also told Lou Xiaoman that we are special police officers to solve this kind of case, and Lou Xiaoman nodded suspiciously.
"That little girl, it's not like she's a stand-in for the drowned ghost, right?"
Niu Quanquan said violently.
I looked at him, and indeed what he said, it was possible.
But it was determined that it was a problem, so I called again and asked Lan Ruoxi, but it was still fruitless, and Su Xiaoxiao couldn't think of anything.
Including the biggest point, people who are regarded as promoted, after death, turn into ghosts, and will continue to be tortured when drowning, and such signs are not seen in Su Xiaoxiao's body at all.
"I can only ask that Deputy Luo."
As I spoke, Niu Quanfa looked sad.
But it's not too early, and we can only wait for tomorrow morning, when we take the car and return to the county seat, and the only way now is to catch a few lonely ghosts from the neighborhood and ask.
After eating, at 8 o'clock, we filled up gasoline and wandered around the county street, but for nearly 2 hours, there was no shadow of half a ghost.
"Go to the cemetery." As I spoke, Niu Quanfa drove the car, turned left at an intersection, and picked up speed.
"There are several cemeteries in the county, let's go to the nearest one first."
The car drove to the northern outskirts of the city, a place called Shuangtou Mountain, and when I looked at it from a distance, I saw two big mountains, like two heads.
A cemetery, which looked like it was newly built, we went to the management office of the cemetery, and the keeper of the cemetery opened the door to the cemetery for us.
Once inside, we started to look around.
"It's fucking weird, I don't usually dare to go near the cemetery, after all, I can see ghosts, more or less, I can still see a few, why can't I see any of them tonight."
"Do you know how to spell demons?" I asked, and Niu Quanfa shook his head decisively.
"Grass, didn't you graduate from the Ghost Burial Team? How come you don't know even the most basic things? ”
Huang Jun roared.
"Oops, I belong to the kind of person who has very poor academic performance, and I can't help it, so ah, I was assigned to this kind of place, and I waited for death."
Suddenly, I stepped on something, and with a chirp, I hurriedly lowered my head, it was a small puddle, my shoes were wet, and my socks were also wet.
"Let's go, let's go to other cemeteries."
Huang Jun said, we walked out of the cemetery, came to the car, I saw the front wheel, how there was some water, I didn't pay much attention, we got into the car.
All night, at 3 a.m., we walked around the cemetery without seeing half a ghost.
"By the way, let's play Disc Fairy, or something else, no matter what ghost game, as long as you can play it."
When I got home, I said that this was the only way we could think of it.
But helplessly, there were only three of us, and there were no props.
"Well, I know a way, it's very simple, let's go, go out again." Niu Quanfa said, took out some paper, drew some villains, cut them out with scissors, and smiled bitterly.
"When I was a kid, I used to play with my friends, alas."
