This room is very different from what we have seen before, there is also a small bed in front of the door, but there is no old lady sitting on it, but a coffin is placed.

I gasped, pulled Zhang Kailong and walked out of the village.

The three of them didn't speak all the way, and ran to the car at the intersection in a panic.

Sitting in the car, I was able to catch my breath.

The servants were silent for another two minutes, and Zhang Kailong muttered, "It seems that there are really ghosts in this world!" ”

I don't know how to answer him, but I always feel that today's events are a little weird.

Zhang Kailong started the car and was about to go back to the bureau, but was stopped by Chen Laosan:

"Slow down! Just now the old man said that the old lady in the dealership died half a year ago, it seems that this is true, and he also said that Xiao Li also died last night, could it be that Xiao Li we saw before is also a ghost, but it doesn't look like it!"

Just now, my mind was full of the old lady, and when I was reminded by Chen Laosan, my heart chuckled again, yes! There is also a Xiao Li, is he also a ghost?

Zhang Kailong turned off the car engine again, and the three of them walked to the pontoon toll station with a stomach full of doubts.

I have good eyesight, and I saw from a distance that it was not Xiao Li standing in the small iron house with a fee, but an old man in his sixties!

We've only been away for over an hour, so could it be that there was a shift change during that time?

Thinking so, the person has already walked into the toll room.

"See? It's not Xiao Li! ”

Zhang Kailong said to Chen Laosan and me in a low voice.

"Go over and ask! Maybe Xiao Li is on the morning shift, and now he's off work! ”

The old man may have been startled when he saw that we were not crossing the river, but walking towards him, and subconsciously seemed to tighten the small iron door.

"Hello Master, I'm Zhang Kailong from the Public Security Bureau's Task Force, and I want to ask you something!"

Maybe he just thought of us as bad guys, although it was a peaceful and prosperous time, but in such a remote rural area, there are often strongmen.

As soon as he heard that it was from the Public Security Bureau, the old man was immediately relieved, and the tension on his face instantly turned into a sincere smile, revealing a mouthful of big yellow teeth.

"Ask! What do I have to say! ”

As soon as he heard this tone, the old man was a typical northern man, and he was really down-to-earth.

"Do you have a toll collector named Xiao Li here?"

When Zhang Kailong asked this sentence, I paid close attention to the old man's expression, and as soon as Zhang Kailong's words came out, the smile on the old man's face instantly froze.

"Hey! This kid is quite pitiful, you all know the situation, right? ”

The old man said to Zhang Kailong.

"What's the situation? I left the bureau before I went to work this morning, and I don't know that the case I received from last night to today, he is really dead? ”

The old man sighed again!

"Yes! I went to the hospital with me, didn't I just come back this morning! I wanted to help his mother with the funeral, but there were not enough people at the toll booth here, so I had to come back to work!"

The old man's face was full of sadness, and his voice was much lower.

"You're new here, too? That...... So, who's on duty here this morning? ”

"How can anyone be on duty! We put up the toll railing when we left last night, and there was no charge this morning, so it should be regarded as a national holiday! ”

When the three of us heard what he said, our hearts trembled.

The old man really didn't lie to us, Xiao Li is also dead, what day is it today, why do you always live to hell!

The muscles on Zhang Kailong's face were already distorted, but he still pretended to be calm and continued to ask: "How did Xiao Li die?" Has the medical examiner done the examination? ”

"Since Xiao Li saved the girl yesterday, I always feel cold, and we don't think so, thinking that at most it is a cold or something, 'The young man sleeps on a cold kang, all by firepower', and we also joked with him, saying that he didn't want his daughter-in-law to think about it."

The old man's expression skills are good, and he almost explains the details clearly.

At night, Xiao Li began to talk nonsense, and let out a few sneers from time to time. He sometimes scolded himself, saying that he should not be nosy and should be punished; Sometimes it is said that there are so many fish in the river! He also said something that others simply didn't understand.

The old man was also there at the time, and when he saw Xiao Li like this, he felt that something was wrong, so he reached out and touched his forehead.

This touch frightened the old man, where is the fever! Xiao Li's forehead turned out to be the same as an ice cube, which made the old man shake.

Hurry up and get to the hospital! By the time he sent people to the hospital, Xiao Li was completely delirious, lying on the hospital bed crying and laughing, and every few minutes, he would "snap" and slap himself.

It happened that there was not enough manpower in the hospital in the past two days, and by the time the doctor came over, the person was already in shock.

Later, it was still not rescued.

The old man said that the last words that Xiao Li shouted at that time were "Spare me!" I know it's wrong! "I never woke up after that.

After a brief chat, all four of them felt uncomfortable.

The old man's discomfort is sympathy for Xiao Li, a child in his early twenties, who was originally dependent on his mother, but now he died young; In addition to sympathizing with Xiao Li's plight, the three of us were also very afraid, and our hearts were full of thoughts, could it be that we chatted with a ghost for more than ten minutes on the side of this toll booth this morning?

We didn't tell the old man about chatting with Xiao Li's ghost this morning, Zhang Kailong wanted to ask him about Xiaohe Village, but in the end he didn't ask, if this note was really left to us by the mysterious old grandson, then the truth of the matter will be known tonight.

Zhang Kailong drove back to the bureau, and first went to the duty office to ask about the case from last night to now, and sure enough, there was Xiao Li's case.

Xiao Li's name is Li Zhiming, and the cause of death in the above note is "sudden heart attack".

The police officer on duty told Zhang Kailong that although there were significantly fewer calls today, almost every call was a life, and the cause of death has not been found so far.

In the past two days, the doctors and police in the district have been moldy for eight lifetimes, everyone has canceled their off-duty, forbidden to ask for leave, and all of them are working overtime!

Zhang Kailong asked Chen Laosan and me to go to the restaurant for lunch, and he went to the director's office, and it turned out that the director had been waiting for him.

In fact, Zhang Kailong hasn't eaten since last night, and he has eaten three times in a row, even the iron man can't bear it!

We just didn't eat breakfast, and we were already hungry, so when we arrived at the restaurant, we asked for a few plates of dumplings, poured a few bowls of water, and devoured them.

About half an hour later, Zhang Kailong came to the restaurant.

"I'll tell you something!"

"What's the matter? Brother Long, you sit down first and talk while eating! ”

Zhang Kailong sat next to me, picked up a bowl of water, drank it all, wiped his mouth, and said to us with a smile: "I resigned!" Now that I am an unemployed vagrant, I can investigate this matter without any scruples! ”

"Ahh Why do you want to quit! Wouldn't it be better to investigate cases as a police officer? ”

As soon as I heard him say this, I didn't swallow a mouthful of food and grabbed it in my throat.
