Chapter 62: Ghosts, Spirits, and Spirits

Remember [ .] in one second, wonderful free reading without pop-ups!

My heart slowly cooled, despair and sorrow hit me together, and this time I quickly countered: "Don't tell me I'm sorry, it was nothing just now." ”

Lu Zenghan didn't seem to listen to me at all, sat on the sofa, took out a cigarette from the cigarette case on the coffee table, took a few puffs, frowned between his eyebrows, and his face was a rare seriousness for me. He sighed dejectedly. Ban Yan said: "Xin Keqiao, you-forget it." He stopped.

I? I'm stupid, am I? I looked at Lu Zenghan and smiled bitterly: "You don't have to be so annoyed. Even if you and me, let you regret it so much, so painful, you won't be like this, I won't pester you, I'm not so cheap-" My voice trembled, and before I finished speaking, I had already bit my lip out of blood, and my mouth was full of fishy smell.

Lu Zenghan looked at me, a trace of pain flashed in his eyes, he took another puff of cigarette, and said slowly: "Xin Keqiao, next time you like a man, first find out who he is." If you follow me, there will be no good days. ”

"Why?" My heart burst and I looked at him stubbornly, "I'm not afraid." ”

"Really?" Lu Zenghan looked at me deeply, laughed self-deprecatingly, pinched the cigarette butt with his hand, got up and strode out without looking back. I was left with nothing but a dazed slump on the couch, sniffing the aftertaste of tobacco in the air, my heart empty. My attachment really doesn't make sense, but feelings are never reasonable. It's ridiculous that I'm a person who runs for three, and I still look like an ignorant girl of eighteen or nineteen, I don't know Lu Zenghan, so I fell into it blindly, am I wrong, or is he wrong?

Sitting bored, I turned on the TV, watched it for more than an hour, estimated that the time was about the same, and I walked downstairs. Lu Zenghan and Zou Yukai were not there in the hall, and there was only one policeman left. I asked curiously, "What about them?" ”

The police replied, "They all went back to their rooms to rest." ”

I chatted with him a few more words, and I learned that his surname was Lu and that he had been working at the Nanqi Island Police Station for ten years. I was about to say more, but I heard a terrible scream of "ah" upstairs, and I was still in a daze, but Officer Lu had already rushed up, and I was busy keeping up. The voice was on the third floor, he and I ran to the third floor, only to see the door of a room open, we ran to the door, only to see a woman in the room sitting on the bed waving her hands and feet, as if hitting something in the air, muttering: "Go away, go away." There were two girls standing beside her, both with frightened faces, and neither of them dared to go up and persuade her.

Officer Lu asked, "What's wrong?" Was she screaming just now? ”

A girl standing nodded and said, "After Mr. Xiao disappeared, we accompanied Yaoyao, but she didn't speak, and just now she suddenly screamed, saying that she saw a female ghost." We don't know what's going on either. ”

The one named Yaoyao threw herself at the floor-to-ceiling glass and shouted at us in horror, "Didn't you see it? It was right here just now, there was a ghost. After saying that, he was about to hit the glass, but Officer Lu went up and pressed her down, seeing that she was crazy, and was really worried that she would do something excessive, so he had to handcuff her to the bed.

Lu Zenghan, who came later, subconsciously looked at me first: "Are you okay?" ”

I shook my head, "It's fine. Lu Zenghan helped Officer Lu carry Yaoyao to the bed and fixed the other hand with a rope.

Another girl said timidly, "Could it really be a female ghost?" ”

"What wraith?" I asked.

"Ding Xiaoxiao, you speak." The boy pointed to the other and said.

The girl named Ding Xiaoxiao has refreshing eyebrows and eyes, and she speaks quickly, she is one of the people who chatted in the hall before: "I also listen to the gossip of the people on the island." It is said that five years ago, there was a big boss's lover who disappeared, and he had dinner with them the night before, but he couldn't find it the next day, and the police came, and they couldn't find it. ”

Later, the place became haunted, saying that three years ago, another woman came to eat with the big boss, and it turned out to be gone. Then it started to be haunted. People on the island will hear women singing, and sleeping here will always have nightmares. Originally, there were not many people on the island, but now half of them have moved away. I told them all this gossip last night, and Yaoyao was very scared. And the room assigned to them last night happened to be the room where the woman lived before she disappeared. ”

Hearing this, I couldn't help but interrupt and ask, "Which woman?" Five years ago or three years ago? ”

"Both." Ding Xiaoxiao replied, "Those two women disappeared from the same room. So Yaoyao changed the room, but she was still afraid, and when she got up this morning, she said that she had a nightmare, and later found that Mr. Xiao was gone, so she was scared silly. Ding Xiaoxiao said, "They all said that the first woman became a resentful spirit and attached to the second woman, so that she could be a substitute for the dead ghost herself, so she had to find a substitute for the dead ghost one by one." ”

I don't believe in the ghosts and gods, so I shook my head: "It's all nonsense, where are the ghosts and ghosts?" It's all the hearts of the people who are doing it. ”

Officer Lu instructed the two girls to take care of Yaoyao, and we went downstairs, and I said to the policeman, "Is there a hospital on the island?" Or Yaoyao can be given a sedative. ”

Officer Lu shook his head: "There is only one small clinic on the island, and in recent years, there has been more and more no one on the island. There are only a dozen or so residents left, and they all go to Nancheng to see if they are sick, and only some simple headaches and brain fever will go to the clinic to hang water. There are no sedatives. Now we just wait for the typhoon to pass tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, and it will be good to get through the ship. ”

We had already gone down to the second floor, and I asked Officer Lu, "Is it true that they said they disappeared five years ago?" ”

Officer Lu nodded: "Five years ago, someone did report a disappearance, the missing person was a female owner of a tea house, who came to Yunhu Villa for dinner, lived here at night, and disappeared the next day." No one is alive, no one is dead, no corpse is seen. At that time, a lot of police forces were also dispatched to search, but in the end, they were not found. It can only be listed as an outstanding case. As for three years ago, I didn't hear about it, and no one called the police. There are rumors on the island that there are people who say this, but we have investigated and there is no such thing. ”

"Since it's a rumor, it's a little interesting why it came out." Lu Zenghan, who had not spoken, said something quite meaningful, and I looked at him thoughtfully.

We waited in the hall for another half an hour, I was idle and bored, and carefully looked at the painting on the opposite side of the four big characters of "Yunhu Villa" in the hall, which was a Chinese painting of landscape danqing, but it also incorporated some light and dark lines of oil painting, which was very individual, but there was a familiar brushwork. I couldn't help but ask, "Who drew this?" ”

"Lanke." Lu Zenghan said lightly, "She paints oil paintings, which is an innovative attempt by her." ”

When I heard this name again, I had a strange feeling in my heart, this woman seemed to be everywhere. I looked at Lu Zenghan carefully and asked, "Is she a painter?" Hanging in the lobby, presumably her paintings should be famous. ”

"Not really." Lu Zenghan looked at me steadily, but his gaze wandered, as if passing through a place where I was looking far away, "The boss of Yunhu Villa likes her paintings very much." ”

The owner of Cloud Lake Villa? He should be a very wealthy man, and the architectural decoration here shows the extraordinary taste and price everywhere, but I am not interested in knowing. I continued to look at the painting, and there was an inexplicable closeness in my heart, although Chinese painting and oil painting are very different, but the brushwork of the landscape is very similar to my sister. I remember that when my sister used to paint oil paintings, sometimes she would use a knife to stir the paint onto the drawing board when she was in a bad mood, and then use the knife to draw out the lines after the canvas absorbed some of the paint. I laughed at her for being rough painting, she always waved her hand: "The real heroes are self-efficacious, who said that twisting and pinching and holding a paintbrush is called painting, real painting, you can walk and stand to paint, with a pen to paint, with a knife to paint, with a broom can paint." ”

The colors used in Chinese painting are delicate, and naturally I can't use knives as rudely as my sister, but I can also see a rough style in the lines of this painting. I looked closer. If I had the chance, I would love to see this woman who looks like me and can draw.

Lu Zenghan ordered the waiter to bring some fruit, and my attention was interrupted. Lu Zenghan told the waiter: "Send some to Mr. Zou's room as well." The waiter answered.

Lu Zenghan glanced at me thoughtfully and occasionally, no longer joking, and no longer looking directly. Maybe he was flirting with me casually, but I didn't expect that I was different from the girls who played on the scene before him, I was stubborn and took it seriously, and my seriousness may have scared him. However, as far as I'm concerned, I don't regret it. When it comes to feelings, I'm only responsible for my heart, and I'll do my best. As for what he thinks, I can't guess, although I studied psychology, but his heart is the most difficult to guess. The only thing I could console myself with was the cold kiss he gave in the room, maybe I couldn't help it.

Before I put the mangosteen in my mouth, the servant ran out of anger and panting with a frightened face, and his voice stammered: "Zou, Mr. Zou, fainted." ”

Before I could react, Lu Zenghan had already disappeared without a trace. Officer Lu and I followed, and Zou Yukai's room was also on the third floor, not far from Yaoyao's room. When we entered, Zou Yukai was lying on the ground, next to a pool of blood. Lu Zenghan skillfully tested Zou Yukai's breathing, quickly found the source of the blood, and easily pulled out the belt on Zou Yukai's pajamas and tied it tightly on his arm.

Lu Zenghan squatted down and gently patted Zou Yukai's face: "Yukai, wake up." At that moment, I was even a little envious of Zou Yukai, the first time I saw the cynical Lu Zenghan so anxious and nervous.

Officer Lu had already called the clinic on the island, told Zou Yukai about the situation, hung up the phone and said to us, "Dr. Wu will be here soon." ”

Zou Yukai woke up, and Lu Zenghan helped him to the bed: "How is it?" Zou Yukai shook his head weakly. Nanqi Island is very small, and the clinic is 10 minutes away. Dr. Wu soon arrived and re-medicated Zou Yukai and bandaged the wound, Zou Yukai's right arm was the most serious, followed by the left hand and waist and abdomen, but it was not serious. Dr. Wu gave Zou Yukai a few stitches on his arm and suggested that he go to the clinic tomorrow for tetanus shots.

Zou Yukai nodded. Officer Lu asked, "Mr. Zou, what happened?" ”
