Section 27 Empty Houses

The sun had sunk in the west, and it was almost dark.

As soon as she took a few steps, Zhang Qiaozhen felt that something was wrong.

It's so quiet. The usual chicken farms are not like this at all. If nothing else, the movement of the roosters and hens in the chicken coop alone is so loud that you can hear it when you stand at the gate.

But today...... Those chickens seemed to have chicken plague, and they could occasionally hear a few calls, but they didn't have the usual enthusiasm at all.

"Lao Wang! Lao Wang! ”

Zhang Qiaozhen shouted at her husband. She doesn't like the name of her husband and wife. The name Wang Fushou is called by people, and there is nothing wrong with calling him Lao Wang. As for the title of husband...... Zhang Qiaozhen once heard from the old people in the family that in ancient times, there were emperors, and they were all special titles for eunuchs in the palace.

Except for the rumors of "whirring", Zhang Qiaozhen did not hear any response.

It shouldn't be! Although my husband is the only one in the chicken farm, he has good ears and quick responses. Don't say it's shouting as loudly as he does now, even if he drives to the gate, he can hear the engine from a distance.

"What about Nima! The boss is not small, what kind of hide and seek...... What about the surname Wang, hurry up, you are not hungry, you don't want to eat? ”

Although the surroundings were terrifying, Zhang Qiaozhen didn't think much about it. She was a little impatient, so she yelled and cursed and walked towards the office of the chicken farm not far away.

She felt that her husband was just joking with her. Maybe you're hiding somewhere, ready to jump out and scare yourself.

After just a few steps, Zhang Qiaozhen felt that something was not quite right. She thought of another possibility.

What about this beheading...... Could it be that there is a wild woman outside?

Zhang Qiaozhen stopped, and a nameless ghost fire suddenly appeared in her heart. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this kind of thing was very likely.

Oh, yes! The men spend most of their time in the chicken farm and rarely go home. Technological developments have made the penetration of mobile phones affect everyone. A few years ago, Wang Fushou couldn't even make a phone call with a magnetic card, but now he is holding his mobile phone all day long, either watching movies or playing games. Zhang Qiaozhen has never been interested in those things. However, she has heard many people say that there are many unserious wild women on the mobile phone network. As long as the men give money, they are willing to do anything. What WeChat, what QQ, and what the hell Momo, are all the best medium for bad women to use to seduce men.

It should be admitted that for the most worrying things, even the smallest chance will be infinitely magnified after a woman has undergone brain supplementation. Regarding the fact that her husband did not appear, Zhang Qiaozhen was already a little angry. Now, the flame that had just come out of my head had burned bigger and bigger, and it was rapidly rising.

Zhang Qiaozhen stopped talking. She slowed down, lowered her voice, and walked through the open space in the middle of the chicken farm to the office.

The door is not closed, it is hidden, and it can be pushed open with a light touch.

The lights were on in the room and there was no one. Zhang Qiaozhen lightly put the thermos on the table. She frowned, looked around, then slowly pulled open the drawers, then the cabinet, and examined the contents of the inside.

She's looking for so-called evidence.

Speaking of which, the fact that my man didn't show up may be a good thing. Take this opportunity to rummage and maybe find some clues. When the time comes, even if Wang Fushou wants to deny it, it is impossible.

No expected long hair was found, and no condoms or anything like that were found. Zhang Qiaozhen was a little puzzled, she sat back on the bed, and there were many questions in her mind.

Where did my man go? Why can't you even see a figure?

Nothing that belongs to other women, could it be that I think too much?

A damp touch came from underneath the buttocks. It was supposed that some kind of liquid had penetrated the pants and touched his skin. Zhang Qiaozhen didn't have time to think about it, so she quickly stood up, turned around, and reached out to touch her wet buttocks while carefully looking at why there was water on the bed.

The light in the room was not very bright, and under the shadow of her body, Zhang Qiaozhen was surprised to find that the place where she had just sat down was soaked with a semi-solidified liquid. The color is pale yellow, mixed with a large amount of sticky white substance, and a little bright red. It looks like an asthma patient coughing up bloody thick phlegm, but there are too many of them, and they are all over the place near the edge of the bed.

The pants are also full of this liquid. Zhang Qiaozhen picked up some with her hands and rubbed them, feeling very slippery. When I got close to my nostrils, I immediately smelled a very strong fishy smell.

It was only at this time that Zhang Qiaozhen discovered that there was a large dark red stain on the cement floor that she had never noticed when she walked into the room.

That place happened to be blocked by a chair, and it was difficult to see the direction from which the door entered, and if I hadn't sat on the bed and had just faced the angle, I am afraid I would not have noticed. She hurriedly walked over and removed her chair, and suddenly a large area of half-dried dark red wetlands was exposed.

It's furnace ash.

Chicken farms also need to boil some hot water. Although the government has long banned the use of honeycomb coal, there is no concern in places like the peri-urban areas. Zhang Qiaozhen quickly ran to the corner of the house, picked up a broom, and vigorously brushed away the ashes covering the ground...... When she saw the things covered by the gray-white honeycomb coal residue underneath, Zhang Qiaozhen felt that her whole brain had lost the ability to think, and her hands were clutching the broom, trembling involuntarily.

Large patches of blood, all sorts of messy animal offal. There are broken chicken intestines, torn livers, thick green bile mixed with dirty blood, chicken feed with corn kernels everywhere...... Right next to these discarded objects, there is a small half of a chicken's head that only has its beak left.

As for the ashes, Zhang Qiaozhen also saw a little chicken feathers mixed with them that had not yet been burned. A faint scorching smell masked the blood, which could only be smelled if you got very close.

What's going on?

A hint of panic flashed in Zhang Qiaozhen's eyes.

She is very familiar with her husband, Wang Fushou is a man who loves chickens like life. It's not that the men have some kind of quirk, but these chickens are the breadwinner for the whole family. For these chickens, the couple looked like treasures, and they were reluctant to eat them at all. If you occasionally slaughter one during the New Year's holidays, you will only take it home to do, and it is impossible to casually stuff it into the room like now. Moreover, chicken intestines and chicken livers are good things, and even if Wang Fushou wants to kill chickens, it is impossible to throw them away.

Also, although Wang Fushou is a rough man, he loves cleanliness very much. How is it possible to make the act of throwing such garbage in the room? And, also cover it with ashes?

Zhang Qiaozhen hurriedly stood up, her panicked gaze scanning back and forth in the room. Soon, she saw more objects that weren't supposed to be here.

On the cabinet next to the faucet, there is a bottle of emergency syrup, and a bottle of cough pills that have been torn open.

Where did these things come from?

No one knows the physical condition of their men better than Zhang Qiaozhen. Wang Fushou is as strong as a cow, and he has had the habit of wiping his body with cold water since he was a child, even in winter. Since getting married, for decades, Wang Fushou has never taken injections or medicines. Occasionally, I have a cold and fever, and I have to carry it by myself. Zhang Qiaozhen secretly consulted a doctor, and the doctor said that this is the best way to reduce the chance of using antibiotics.

Zhang Qiaozhen couldn't understand the technical terms that were too complicated. She only knows one thing, that is, her man never takes medicine, and he will never take the initiative to buy medicine.

Where do emergency syrups and cough suppressants come from?

Zhang Qiaozhen was trembling all over her body. She couldn't take care of so much anymore, her mind was dizzy, and she no longer had any thoughts like wild women. She had a feeling ———— her man had an accident.

There are many things that do not require verbal communication between husband and wife, and they do not need to be seen with their own eyes. It's a tacit understanding, or telepathy, that has been cultivated with each other over the years.

"Lao Wang, Lao Wang, where are you?"

"Cut off your head, you, where are you...... Hurry up and get out! Don't scare me...... Woohoo......"

In the eyes of many people, Zhang Qiaozhen is an out-and-out shrew. He has a loud voice and a big temper. When he is in a hurry, he will pick up a kitchen knife and cut people. But now, Zhang Qiaozhen has completely lost her usual arrogance and barbarism. She felt like a lonely and helpless woman, who didn't know what had happened to her man and couldn't find him.

Running out of the room, Zhang Qiaozhen stumbled and cried loudly in the chicken farm. The wind amplified the shouting and carried it to every corner of the surroundings. The chicken farm is small and loud enough to be heard. Of course, the premise is that Wang Fushou is here.

The surrounding area was dark and oppressive, and the roosters and hens in the cage also noticed that Zhang Qiaozhen was not the usual feeder, and they began to "cluck". It's as if a machine that has been silent for a long time is suddenly turned on, and all the noise that has been suppressed for a long time is released.

Chicken...... As far as the eye can see, all the living things you can see are chickens.

Zhang Qiaozhen suddenly felt a little hateful, and the idea of killing all these screaming and shouting beasts was born in her mind.

I want my man, not some damn chicken!

The chicken farm was searched inside and out, but Zhang Qiaozhen still found nothing. Wang Fushou seemed to evaporate in the air, leaving no trace.

Zhang Qiaozhen walked forward in despair, she wanted to call the police, but the bag containing the phone was left in the office with the thermos. It's not far away, and you can see the open door of the office from here. It's just that Zhang Qiaozhen felt that she had lost her strength all over her body, and her legs and feet were very weak. She felt like she had to sit down and take a break.

Just as she was walking through the chicken coop and about to walk out of the aisle of the chicken shed, she accidentally ran into a pile of debris placed on the side of the cage. With a bang, everything fell down.
