Chapter Twenty-Three: On the Ceiling
Hearing Uncle Ho's wife say that she didn't have a daughter, I chuckled in my heart.
What's going on, yesterday, a woman on the phone said that she was Uncle He's daughter, and she also told me Uncle He's address.
And I also followed the address she said and found here.
Now, how could she say that she doesn't have a daughter with Uncle He, so who is the woman who talked to me on the phone yesterday?
Looking at Uncle He's wife, I was about to ask something, but I heard a shouting from Uncle He's house.
Uncle He's wife answered and hurried over.
I also followed, only to see that I hadn't seen him for two days, and Uncle He's whole person had changed, he had lost a lot of weight, and his two eyes were deeply sunken, black holes, and he looked like a terminally ill person.
His wife poured him some water to drink, and it took him a great deal of effort to get up.
I called Uncle He, but he didn't hear it at first, and it wasn't until I called again that he reacted.
Then he looked up at me and was stunned for a moment:
"You ......"
I hurriedly stepped forward: "Uncle He, I'm Tang Xiaofan, didn't you call me and ask me to come to you, I was very busy yesterday, and I came here with a little time today." ”
As I spoke, I observed Uncle Ho.
As he listened, his eyes shook from side to side, as if he was very weak.
I also looked left and right and didn't find anything.
He Bo drank the water, he didn't say anything to me, and lay down to rest again.
The wife stood aside, looked at her husband like this, and sighed: "What's the matter, it's like this for no reason, is this evil or Tai Sui?" ”
When I heard the word "evil", something suddenly occurred to me.
Hurry up Uncle He's wife: "Uncle He, when did this happen?" ”
Uncle He's wife said: "The night before yesterday, he said he was going out to yo-yo, and I went to play mahjong, but when he came back, it became like this......"
In Uncle He's wife's later narration, I began to think that this matter had a lot to do with my chicken noodle shop.
After He Bo got his retirement salary at the age of 60, he never went out to work again.
Every night, he goes out to take a walk, exercise and breathe, and the couple occasionally travels, and they both feel that life is very good.
After dinner that day, he went out as usual.
Coincidentally, my wife didn't come home until 12 o'clock in the evening when she played mahjong, but a few nights someone lost money and made a fuss when she didn't agree.
So, it was not yet nine o'clock in the morning, and the table was "dismantled".
When she got home, she found that the house was dark, and at this time, her husband had already arrived home.
I took out my mobile phone and made a call, but my husband's mobile phone rang in the bathroom.
The bathroom of the house is universal.
There are three households on one floor, and one bathroom is shared.
It was also pitch black inside, and with the rope of the lamp pulled, she saw her husband fall to the ground.
Quickly helped her husband up, dried his body for him, and her husband had a big bag on his forehead, and he took some anti-inflammatory drugs, but she didn't ask her husband if he would go to the hospital, but the other party refused.
"I'm going to go anywhere, I'm going to die if I go out!"
This inexplicable sentence made Uncle He's wife not know what was going on.
Later, He Bo lay in bed every day, without talking or sleeping.
In short, he just stared blankly at the roof, the corners of his mouth were slightly open, and sometimes his voice was low, as if he was saying something, but when his wife leaned her ear over, she couldn't hear anything clearly.
Every day, except for moving when eating, Uncle He has been lying in bed.
Hearing this, I thought of a female voice that suddenly came out when I called Uncle He last night, so at that time, where was Uncle He's wife and person?
So I asked Uncle He's wife, "Last night, you were with Uncle He all the time?" ”
"Last night, of course!" As she spoke, she sighed: "You see that he has become like this now, where can I go?" ”
"You've really never left him for a single step?"
Hearing my question, Uncle He's wife thought about it carefully, and she suddenly looked at me: "I remembered, last night, at about twelve o'clock, at the gate of Caojia Lane, someone was drunk and fighting with his wife, I heard from the window that everyone ran out to see, and I ran out with it." ”
After a pause, she added:
"At that time, I saw that there was no movement in our family, and I also told him to call me sometimes......"
In this way, it is right.
Last night, when Uncle Ho answered my phone, it should have been when his wife went out to watch the excitement.
Just why a woman's voice suddenly appeared on the phone.
And I recall it now, the woman's voice on the phone was very slow, word by word, word by word, when she spoke, she was not in a hurry, and her timbre sounded very soft.
He Bo didn't have a daughter, so he wouldn't have a neighbor at that night.
So, I remembered Su Xiaoyu.
After Uncle He learned that I had taken over the Sea Blue Club, he actually wanted to say something to me.
But I had something to do at the time, and I didn't allow it at the time.
The matter of the Hailan Club, through the Internet query, I already have a rough idea of the situation.
After Su Xiaoyu set himself on fire, the shop became a murder shop.
It's just that I don't know very well why her ghost ran to the chicken miscellaneous noodle shop, so I came to the previous owner, Uncle He, but what I didn't expect was that Uncle He suddenly appeared in this situation.
My biggest question now is, who was the woman on the phone last night?
Moreover, what happened to Uncle He that night, after leaving my noodle shop, who did he meet, and what happened to him, was it an accident or something, deliberate?
glanced at Uncle He who was spread out on the bed, and he still didn't say a word.
Two deep, sunken eyes, staring straight at the ceiling.
I looked upwards in the direction he was looking.
Old house with a somewhat blackened ceiling.
The skin of the wall fell off quite a bit, and pieces fell down and hung in mid-air.
At that moment, one of them fell, and I ducked back, and then, with a "bang", a black thing flashed in front of my eyes.
I saw that the thing scurried around the room, and then it ran into the back of the closet, and did not come out.
Uncle He's wife was shocked when she saw this scene.
She asked me what it was, and I looked at her and said, "This is a cave bat, it just grows in the mountains, how can you have this thing in your house?" ”
Uncle Ho's wife's head shook like a rattle:
"How do I know about me, my family has had rats before, and I have never seen this thing from management."
The woman's voice trembled a little, and she seemed to be about to cry.
At this moment, Uncle He, who was lying on the bed, suddenly screamed!
