Chapter Forty-Eight: Clues
After listening to the story I told, Da Zhuang's body trembled, probably thinking of the female ghost, so he was afraid. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info I smiled to myself, thinking to myself, "I'm so strong and I'm so afraid of ghosts." Thinking about it, I said to him, "How's my story?" ”
Da Zhuang smiled bitterly and said, "Yes... It's a little scary...... I patted him on the shoulder and said, "I didn't expect you to be so afraid of ghosts?" Well, it's time for you to talk about it. ”
He pointed to the street sign in front of him and said, "Let's not talk about it yet, we will go to Changde in front." It's getting dark now, so let's stop in Changde for a night of rest and leave tomorrow morning. ”
I looked at my watch, it was almost eight o'clock, nodded and said, "Well, let's go find a place to eat by the way, otherwise it's really not safe to stay on the road at night." ”
After a while, the car drove into the downtown area of Changde. Due to the unfamiliarity of our lives, we went around the city several times before we finally found a parking lot with a parking space.
After parking the car, I had a casual meal with Da Zhuang, and then found a hotel to open a double room to rest, but unfortunately there was only a single room left, so we had to open two rooms.
At night, I lay in bed and watched TV. Since I am next to Da Zhuang's room, the sound insulation effect is not very good, so I don't dare to turn on the sound of the TV very loudly.
Just as I was about to turn off the TV and go to bed, Da Zhuang's voice came from his impatient voice, and I noticed that he seemed to be calling someone.
He said, "I know, I know, but it's going to die...... I understand that everyone is in it for money, and if it weren't for that much money, who would take this risk......"
Suddenly, my heart tightened, and I thought, "Could it be that this Da Zhuang wants to take Lao Liu's goods away?" No wonder Lao Liu is not at ease, it turns out that there is an internal ghost in their company. ”
Thinking of this, I picked up the phone and wanted to notify Lao Liu immediately, but after thinking about it, "I don't have evidence now, even if I do, what can I do, and if I accidentally get known by Da Zhuang, I will be outside with him, maybe he will drive the car somewhere, and then give me ......"
Thinking about it, I touched my neck and secretly decided that it would be better to find evidence first. At the same time, I am also a little more wary of this big man.
After that, I turned off the TV and pretended to sleep, trying to see if I could hear any other clues. It wasn't until after twelve o'clock in the evening that I heard the distinct sound of the door opening and closing in his room, and either someone had come looking for him or he had gone out on his own.
But for the next few hours, I didn't hear any movement. That is, if someone came to his room, he didn't go out almost all night. If Da Zhuang went out, then it is possible that he did not come back all night. Or else did he order a late-night takeout?
I lay on the bed and thought, my eyelids getting heavier and heavier, and I gradually fell asleep. The next morning, I woke up feeling weak and tired, as if I hadn't rested at all.
"Yesterday was so tired, even if I slept a few hours less, it wouldn't be." I muttered to myself and got out of bed. At this moment, there was a rush of doorbells at the door.
I opened the door and saw Da Zhuang standing at the door with breakfast and said to me with a smile: "Mr. Shen is early, I bought breakfast for you, hurry up and eat it while it's hot." I rubbed my eyes as I took the breakfast and said, "Okay, thank you, can you come in and have some together?" ”
Da Zhuang waved his hand and said, "I've eaten, you eat first, I'll go down and check out first, and we'll go straight after you finish eating." I nodded in agreement, closed the door and started breakfast.
After eating, I took out my phone and looked at it, it was already past nine o'clock in the morning. After reading the time, I just wanted to put my phone in, but suddenly I remembered something and suddenly took out my phone again.
I found out that my time was a day faster, we set off yesterday, that is, the thirteenth, but now the time displayed on my phone is the fifteenth. "Where's Fourteen? Am I amnesia? At the same time, I remembered the call I heard last night, and the sound of the door opening and closing.
A voice in my heart told me that this time I came out to help, it was definitely not just a simple help, there must be some ulterior secret hidden here.
At this time, a waiter opened the door and stood at the door and said, "Sorry sir, your room has been checked out, I am here to check the room." Are you ready to leave? ”
I hurriedly stood up and said, "Yes, I'm going to leave, you can check." With that, I left the room and went down to the lobby. Seeing that Da Zhuang had already completed the formalities, he was sitting alone on the sofa in the lobby smoking a cigarette and waiting for me.
I greeted him and said, "Okay, let's go." When Da Zhuang saw that I had come down, he hurriedly put the cigarette in his hand in the ashtray, stood up and said, "Well, let's go." With that, we walked out of the lobby.
As the parking place was not too far away from us, we walked straight to it. On the way, I asked Da Zhuang: "By the way, where will the goods be delivered this time, and how many days will it take to arrive?" Da Zhuang looked at me and said, "Didn't Mr. Liu tell you?" ”
I shook my head, and he continued: "This time the goods will be delivered to Beijing, according to the current itinerary, it will take at least a day or two." I thought to myself, "If I had known that this thing was so unpeaceful, and that I had to run so far, I wouldn't have said anything that would have come......"
Seeing that I didn't speak, Da Zhuang asked, "What's wrong, Mr. Shen?" Any questions? I quickly came back to my senses and said, "Ah, there's no problem, just ask." ”
As we spoke, we had reached the parking lot. As soon as I got on the bus and sat down, I felt something in the seat scorn me, and I hurriedly raised my ass and reached out to touch it. It turned out to be a mineral water bottle, "I remember that neither of us had drunk water in the car when we came, where did this water bottle come from......"
Da Zhuang sorted out his position, and saw that I was holding an empty mineral water bottle in my hand, so he said: "I guess it was left by the previous person, after all, this car is not mine......" As he spoke, he took the water bottle in my hand and threw it on the back seat.
His behavior made me even more suspicious, and I didn't even ask, he was eager to explain. There must be something wrong with this big man......" I thought as I thought about it, but in order not to reveal my thoughts, I said, "Well, yes, let's go quickly." ”
With that, Da Zhuang drove the car out of the parking lot, and after a while, he drove back to the highway. I didn't say anything all the way, I looked at the scenery passing by rapidly outside the window, and gradually became a little sleepy, and I couldn't help but fall asleep.
I don't know how long it took, but Da Zhuang on the side pushed me and said, "Mr. Shen, it's noon, let's eat something and then continue walking." ”
After listening to him, I looked around in a daze, and the car was already next to a rest stop. I stretched, yawned and said, "I'm not hungry yet, you go eat, I'll sleep in the car." ”
When he saw that I couldn't open my eyes, he had to say, "Okay, then you can sleep here first, and I'll come when I go." With that, he got out of the car and closed the door.
I sat in my seat, with one eye ajar, as I watched him walk away into the rest stop dining room. Hurriedly unbuckled his seat belt, climbed into the back seat, and began to search.
I only have one thought in my mind right now, this car is probably not the same car we drove when we came out, so I desperately want to find evidence, and now is the best chance. I climbed into the back seat and rummaged around.
After a while, I noticed that under the back seat, in an inconspicuous corner, there was a booklet with the words "Yixiang Co., Ltd." on the back pages, and I saw a picture of Da Zhuang pasted on it. His real name was Meng Zhuang, but he wasn't from the company that Liu Zhong and I were running from.
"Why does Liu Zhong want to find an outsider to transport such an important thing?" Another question popped up in my mind. So far, all the questions I've found seem to point to this man named Meng Zhuang, and what kind of winging company it is.
"Liu Zhong probably didn't know about these things, if he knew, such an important thing, with my understanding of him, he would never have done it. So if he doesn't know, it means that this Meng Zhuang may have infiltrated the company by himself, and then took this opportunity to steal all the gold and make a windfall? If that's the case, my day of disappearance and the inexplicable empty bottles in this car can explain it. ”
"First Meng Zhuang tried to stun me and make me unconscious for a day, and then he drove the car with the gold on it, and then changed it to another car that was exactly the same, and then changed the license plate, and he was able to go on the road as a matter of course. But how is he going to get out when he arrives? As soon as you open the carriage, isn't it all exposed? ”
Thinking about this, although everything seems reasonable, I still have no conclusive evidence to prove that all this was premeditated by Meng Zhuang. I had to sit back in my seat, fasten my seatbelt and continue pretending to sleep.
At this time, Meng Zhuang also finished eating and came out of the restaurant holding his stomach. He also bought two bottles of water, and as soon as he got in the car, he shook me and said, "Mr. Shen, drink some water." As he spoke, he handed me a bottle of mineral water.
I pretended to have just woken up, took his water, and checked it vigilantly. The mouth of the bottle has not been opened, and there are no pinholes in the bottle, so I can take two sips with confidence.
After drinking the water, we continued on our way. Meng Zhuang saw that I was already awake, so he said: "Mr. Shen, you are awake anyway, we are idle, so let's continue to tell stories." ”
I smiled and said, "Okay, but this time it's your turn." ”
He scratched his head and said, "My story is not as good as yours, since you asked me to tell it, then I will tell it." ”
I picked up the water and took a sip, looked at him and said, "It's okay, it's all about passing the time anyway, there's nothing bad to hear." ”
Meng Zhuang thought for a while and said, "Then I'll tell you about something I encountered when I was in college." ”
