Qianjianqiao Hotel is located in the northern part of Wu Thanh.

Meng Xiaoshuai and the others stayed in another hotel, the Blue Sky Hotel, in the south of Wucheng. In fact, there are only a few streets between the two hotels.

There are a total of 6 of them and 4 rooms have been opened, one room for Zhou Dedong, one room for Bai Xinxin, one room for Meng Xiaoshuai and Guo Mei, and one room for Wu Min and Zhang Hui.

That night, Meng Xiaoshuai couldn't wait to find the phone number at the train station, and when she called, she was told that there would be no train until June 16.

The news made everyone a little impetuous.

After a night's rest and breakfast, Zhou Dedong asked everyone to gather in his room to discuss what to do next.

Zhou Dedong said: "Without the train, we can't go, and I can't go either." Now, all we have to do is how to find him. Last night, I checked the information of Wucheng, it is only a county-level city, the scale is very small, and the total number of hotels and hostels does not exceed 50. ”

Bai Xinxin lay on the bed on all fours and said, "That's your business with him, it has nothing to do with me, I just want to sleep well and wait for the train." ”

Zhou Dedong said: "You promised me. ”

Bai Xinxin said: "I also lost an RV, who should I tell me?" ”

His words were very abrupt.

Zhou Dedong didn't know how to respond for a while, so he had to say, "I brought you out." ”

Bai Xinxin sneered: "You also brought us in!" ”

Zhou Dedong thought for a while and said, "The monsoon is very dangerous, aren't you worried about her?" ”

Bai Xinxin said: "She is your assistant, you should be worried about, and she has a relationship with us!" ”

Meng Xiaoshuai said: "Bai Xinxin, if you don't get rid of that fake Zhou Dedong, you can't leave, you must fulfill your promise." ”

Bai Xinxin glanced at Meng Xiaoshuai: "I won't honor it, what can you do?" ”

The atmosphere was tense at once.

After a long while, Meng Xiaoshuai said, "I will report the case." ”

Bai Xinxin said: "What are you reporting? ”

Meng Xiaoshuai stared at Bai Xinxin's eyes and suddenly said, "Where is Jiang Mengxi?" ”

Bai Xinxin was stuck all of a sudden.

Then, he burst out laughing, "You want to play with me?" Okay, let's fight to the death! Meng Xiaoshuai, you killed Huang Xi, right? Zhou Dedong, you killed the three kingdoms of Lu, right? Zhang Hui, that policeman named Zhang Hui was killed by you, right? Wu Min, you want to strangle Guo Mei, but you didn't succeed, right? Guo Mei, you can't run away, I will tell the world on the Internet, you are hiding in Wucheng, you see if anyone cleans you up! ”

Meng Xiaoshuai's face turned red suddenly: "Brute." ”

Bai Xinxin said: "I threw away an RV and almost lost my life, who will compensate me for my economic losses?" Who will pay me for my mental loss? ”

Zhang Hui walked up to Bai Xinxin and whispered, "Let's go to another room to talk?" ”

Bai Xinxin said: "You don't pretend to be an outlaw with me!" I'm not going with you, what's the matter? ”

Zhang Hui looked at Zhou Dedong and said, "Boss Zhou, then please go out for a while, I will talk to Bai Xinxin in this room." ”

Zhou Dedong said: "Zhang Hui, I excluded him. Bai Xinxin, since you don't join, then you go back to your room, and we'll discuss. ”

Bai Xinxin immediately stood up and staggered back to his room.

Zhou Dedong said: "Meng Xiaoshuai and Guo Mei are girls, what should you do, you don't need to intervene." Now, with the three of us left, let's get rid of the replicant together. ”

Meng Xiaoshuai said: "But, if you kill someone, can you leave Wucheng?" ”

Zhou Dedong said: "Murder? Who did we kill? ”

Meng Xiaoshuai said: "Aren't you talking, then kill that Zhou Dedong?" ”

Zhou Dedong said: "I am Zhou Dedong!" ”

Meng Xiaoshuai suddenly realized.

Zhou Dedong said: "From today on, the three of us men will wander around Wucheng separately, as long as we find that replicant, or see the shadow of Monsoon and Linghu Mountain, call immediately." ”

I didn't know that when I took a helicopter to Lop Nur to look for Meng Xiaoshuai and them, another Zhou Dedong was taking Wu Min and Zhang back to Wucheng to look for me.

I returned to the Qianqiao Hotel, and Monsoon actually told me that Linghushan had shown his face in the toilet floor drain.

At that time, Monsoon was about to fall asleep when he heard something in the bathroom, as if someone was fixing the water pipe.

Then she heard a voice: "Monsoon ......"

It was Linghu Mountain's voice.

Monsoon thought he was outside the door, walked over quickly, opened the door, and there was no one outside.

Then, she heard Linghushan call him: "Monsoon! ”

She looked around, and finally came to the bathroom door, and reached out far to open the door.

Ling Hushan's voice became clear: "Monsoon, I'm here!" ”

Monsoon tentatively walked in and looked behind the door, there was no one. She lifted the curtain on the tub again, and there was no one. She even looked into the mirror, and it was only her in the mirror.

Linghu Mountain's voice sounded again: "Floor drain ......"

Monsoon was startled, and when he looked down, the floor drain cover was removed, and Linghu Mountain's voice came from there! She took a step back and leaned against the wall. Then, she heard Linghushan say, "I'm waiting for you on the rockery behind the hotel!" ”

Soon, Monsoon heard the sound of bones contracting, much like many people breaking their joints at the same time, "click, ......", which was creepy, and the friction of clothes and pipes, and it could be heard that he was shrinking downward......

Monsoon was dumbfounded for a few minutes, covered the floor drain, exited the bathroom, and closed the door.

There's no way she's going to go to that rockery and meet him.

She lay on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep, and listened to the movement in the bathroom.

Later, I came back.

I moved a low cabinet into the bathroom, and when I looked at the floor drain, the lid was still blocked, and I pressed the low cabinet against it.

came out and I said, "How does he know which room you're in?" ”

Monsoon said, "I don't know. ”

I said, "Did he ask at the front desk?" ”

Ji Feng said: "If he dares to enter the hotel, he will not have to drill into the floor drain." There was only one possibility - in the past two days, he searched every room along the pipe. ”

I said, "Then he's not human." ”

Monsoon said, "Didn't he say they were humanoids? Humanoids may just be a human-like thing. ”

I thought for a moment and said, "He's probably not in the pipe." “

Monsoon said, "Then how did I hear him calling me?" ”

I said, "I once took Meixi to play a game in Beijing Sony Dream - there are three metal pipes, red, green, yellow, they are twisting and turning, Meixi and I are very far away, but Meixi is talking at one end of the pipe, and I am listening at the other end of the pipe, just like she whispers to me, and her voice is very clear." ”

Monsoon said, "You mean, he found the pipe that led to this room underground, and the sound came up the pipe?" ”

I said, "Hmm. ”

Monsoon said, "No, no, listen to the voice, he is in the floor drain, no more than 3 feet away from me!" I didn't dare to look inside, but if I did, I would have seen his eyes or mouth. ”

I said, "Zhou Zhidan also heard our cry for help in Lop Nur in the South Pacific, because the two places are ears and are connected." ”

After a pause, Monsoon suddenly said, "I remembered a novel you wrote, "Cat of Nine Lives." ”

I heard a very old legend and wrote it into a story - "Cat of Nine Lives".

The legend tells that during the Republic of China, a middle-aged fat woman lost her favorite ring. She suspects that it has been stolen by a neighbor, so she decides to "cook the cat".

"Boiled cat" is a saying in the countryside of Northeast China, similar to witchcraft, if someone loses something, can't catch the thief, gritted his teeth with hatred, boiled the cat, it is said that the thief will endure the pain of the cat and expose himself.

People who lose things often just say that they scare the thief and have never seen who really cooks the cat.

However, this fat woman really boiled the.

The neighbors were silent.

The fat woman grabbed her cat, threw it into the boiling pot, and pressed the lid on. The cat slammed inside, suddenly opened the lid of the pot, rushed out steamingly, and ran all the way away!

This cat is almost cooked to medium rare, how can it still run?

One night after that, the cat suddenly appeared at the fat woman's house, causing the fat woman and her husband to scream. It stood in the moonlight, a pair of green eyes staring at the fat woman and her husband.

It looked very ugly: a handful of hair, bald pieces of it, a mottled face, and a pair of eyes like dead fish.

The doors and windows are locked, how did it get in?

The fat woman's husband lit the oil lamp, and the cat disappeared at once, and her husband searched around with the oil lamp, and finally found a hole with a thick bowl under the bed......

Rats are subterranean animals, gloomy; Cats are earthly creatures, clear. Now, the cat seems to have changed its nature, burrowing around in the ground......

The fat woman's husband was frightened and plugged the hole.

One day, he was on a night shift and came home at dawn to find a fat woman curled up naked in a bathing vat with her black hair floating on the water. Her underwear and panties lay neatly aside. The missing ring was on her finger.

Everyone began to surround and suppress this ominous cat.

It stands to reason that the cat had been boiled and was blind nine times out of ten, but people just couldn't catch it.

Once, someone threw a fish in the yard and smeared it with poison, and the fish was eaten by it and ran away.

Again, someone put a wolf clip in the yard, if it was clamped, it would definitely be cut off, and in the middle of the night, the wolf clip really caught it, and when the people rushed out, it had already fled, and there was blood all over the ground.

Again, it was finally caught, put into a cloth bag, beaten with a wooden stick, and its howl was heard, and after beating for a long time, the cloth bag was still moving. The perpetrator was frightened, carried a cloth bag, rode a horse and ran for dozens of kilometers, threw it down, and returned as quickly as possible. However, a few days later, the cat reappeared......

Terror enveloped the people. At night, several neighbors locked their doors and windows tightly, fearing that the cat would be killed. However, the cat was like a ghost, and it couldn't be stopped at all. Several neighbors died one after another, and every dead person's family had a black hole the size of a bowl under the bed......

The fat woman's death broke her husband's liver and intestines. He vows to find out the real culprit.

Finally, he remembered a man, a mad girl, her home was in the front yard, and this mad girl locked the door all day and rarely went out.

On this day, the fat woman's husband quietly climbed the high wall of her house, and sure enough, he saw the terrifying cat! It snuggles up in the arms of a mad girl, like a mother and a baby.

Why is the fat woman's husband suspicious of her?

This crazy girl once fell in love with a beautiful man, and when the two were about to hold a wedding, one night the fat woman's husband was on night duty, and the beautiful man raped the fat woman and was denounced by the fat woman. As a result, the beautiful man was arrested by the police station and sentenced to 6 years. In the next few days, he will be released from prison.

After a few days of voyeurism, the fat woman's husband discovers that the mad girl and the cat are inseparable. He felt more and more suspicious that the mad girl was suspicious, maybe she wasn't crazy at all, and that it was she who had trained the cat to avenge her.

So, he called the police, and the police arrested the crazy girl. This day is the day when the beautiful man is released from prison.

In fact, the beautiful man and the fat woman were adulterous back then, one night, the two were cheating, the fat woman found that the beautiful man had a ring in his pocket, she wanted it, and the beautiful man refused, which was a love object he gave to the bride when he was ready to get married. The real identity of the beautiful man is a tomb robber, and he is good at digging holes. The ring was dug up from the ground.

The fat woman has a hot temper, and the two of them actually fight over it. The fat woman was furious and sent the beautiful man to prison. During the police investigation, several neighbors committed perjury for various selfish purposes.

The police interrogate the mad girl, and the mad girl confesses. She also admitted that she also killed 12 mice, 43 flies, and 161 mosquitoes.

The police asked: How did you get into the victim's home?

The mad girl thought for a moment and said word by word: drill, hole.

The policeman was stunned and said for a long time: You will ...... Bone shrinking work?
