Chapter 456: Eating and Drinking

Shen Yu raised a question on the road - under what conditions will people have faith, and why will faith eventually form a force to change the world?

This is probably a question that needs to be answered systematically, and if the time and conditions are enough, it is even possible to write a paper to answer her. However, I didn't have time to write my dissertation, because soon Weiyang Station arrived.

Xiao Yu was already waiting for us on the platform, she took Shen Yu and me down to the parking lot as soon as possible, and then drove directly to the city.

"Where to go first? What about Lin Ying? I asked.

"Team Lin is still in Evil Pass Town. She instructed the two teachers to go to Zhuxiang Square first, and asked me to tell me about the circumstances of the discovery of the body at that time. ”

We drove straight to Zhuxiang Square.

This square is located in Yanshou District, not far from the city government, and is one of the most fashionable and prosperous shopping malls that has just been developed in recent years. It has everything you need to eat, drink and be merry, and it is a favorite of fashionable young people.

The day the body was found, it was early Sunday morning. And the people who found the body were not cleaners who got up early and hung up late, but a group of four young people who were high until midnight.

All four of them are post-90s, all of them have just graduated and entered the workplace, and they work in a foreign company, and their income is not bad.

Anyway, to survive in a big city nowadays, unless six wallets are bulging, it is okay to cope with your own food, drink, play and housing not only with your salary, but you have to have extra ideas, such as falling in love, getting married, having children, and buying a house, which is absolutely not enough.

Not only is it not enough, but even if you don't see the hope of being able to do it in your life.

Therefore, some people can think openly, instead of holding unrealistic fantasies, it is better to measure their material resources, find that day every week, and live as a fantasy on that day.

Dong Ningliang came a year earlier than the other three, and he was also the organizer of this kind of event, and the other three people were two women and one man.

Almost every Saturday, as long as everyone is in Weiyang, they will organize such a party - eating, drinking, and then going to the bar to listen to music, and continue to drink, chat, or karaoke, anyway, they will definitely stay up until midnight for two or three consecutive games, and then go back to their respective homes and find their own mothers.

But Dong Ningliang always leaves a little earlier, and he usually finds a hotel nearby and stays for the time being. Soon after, another female colleague would also come home under the pretext of coming home.

The two of them are not boyfriend and girlfriend, and they never wanted to be boyfriend and girlfriend. For some people, let alone getting married, even if they become a couple, they will become a burden to each other.

But erotic is also, this is the basic need of human survival, so they will look for familiar, safe and not annoying objects, two puppets or together, get together in the dark, break up at dawn, and usually care for each other, but never cross the red line of the relationship.

Of course, this relationship has a bad name, but I don't want to mention it here. Because even if there is no such relationship, otaku will stare at the anchor for dialysis, and otaku will also hold the idol and lick the screen, people's basic needs will not disappear, and they will always seek what is missing in life.

In this world, no one is much more noble than anyone, and no one is much more obscene than anyone.

More than 90% of people will actually spend their lives in an ordinary and difficult way - everyone is a leek, is there any need to blame each other and hurt each other?

This female colleague's name is Xin Zhu, and this surname is extremely rare, so Xin Zhu is also very concerned about privacy, and she never wants to leave her name in the hotel stay record.

Therefore, Dong Ningliang often takes the first step, finds a hotel with lax visitor registration, and then waits quietly for his lover to arrive.

That night, Dong Ningliang wanted to leave early, but everyone sang happily, and he saw that Xin Zhu was interested, so he stayed with him for a while.

The four of them lasted until nearly three o'clock in the morning, and Dong Ningliang said goodbye, he walked to a theme hotel opposite, registered and moved in.

Generally, whenever he "goes home", Xin Zhu will rush to the hotel to meet him after half an hour or three quarters of an hour.

But that day, Dong Ningliang slept in the hotel, and it was already a quarter past four when he looked at his phone, but Xin Zhu had not yet arrived.

He sat up all of a sudden, quickly picked up his phone, and sent a message to his lover.

"What's wrong? Did something happen? He asked in the message.

He had some twists and turns in his heart, not because his lover was late, but because he was worried that she would be in danger when she went out in the middle of the night.

But Xin Zhu didn't reply, he finally couldn't help it, and directly dialed her mobile phone.

The mobile phone rang for a long time and no one answered, and when Dong Ningliang lost his patience and almost hung up the phone, the mobile phone was suddenly connected.

"Hey, Brother Dong?" A woman's voice sounded on the other end, but it wasn't Xin Zhu.

Dong Ningliang was stunned for a moment, but he immediately recognized that it was the voice of another female colleague.

"Ah, Xin Zhu forgot her phone in the box, and I collected it for her. Brother Dong, are you still looking for her in the middle of the night? The female colleague explained, with a hint of sarcasm in her tone.

"When did she leave?"

"I don't remember exactly, I just got home, and she left earlier than me, about half past three."

"Oops!" Dong Ningliang blurted out.

The female colleague asked again, "Is there an accident?" Did Xin Zhu contact you? ”

Dong Ningliang didn't explain, he couldn't explain clearly, and he didn't have the heart to explain. He hung up the phone, put on his shorts and ran outside the hotel.

There are two roads from KTV to the hotel, one road is in the back street of KTV, usually there are few people, it is relatively secluded, and the distance is short, Dong Ningliang generally takes this road.

He walked along the back street to the KTV, but he didn't find anything unusual on the way, only two drunks holding each other and scolding while walking, scolding and spitting.

As soon as he arrived at the KTV building, he regretted it, Xin Zhu was a girl, she would definitely not walk this kind of remote alley in the middle of the night, she must have come around the square.

Thinking of this, he spread his legs and ran towards the square.

There is a large square outside the Zhuxiang shopping center, with fountains and various colored lights, but at this point, the fountain stopped, and the colored lights went out, only the bleak street lights illuminated. Because the square was too empty, Dong Ningliang looked at it and saw a few people sitting there in the center of the square.

"Xin Zhu!" He called out in that direction, but apparently didn't respond.

Could it be a few homeless people? Recently, the weather has been hot, and the homeless may sit in an open area to cool off.

Dong Ningliang decided to go over to see what was going on, but the closer he got there, the more wrong he realized that the situation was wrong.

For the men did not seem to be sitting in the square, but seemed to be kneeling, and they were kneeling there solemnly, with their heads still facing northwest.

Dong Ningliang felt that his heart was beating faster and faster, and he couldn't help but slow down, and at this moment, he heard a faint cry behind him, the cry was ethereal and terrible, and goosebumps all over his body suddenly rose.
