Chapter 7: The Night That Never Ends
Huang Jun said: "Actually, it's not a secret, it's for your own good not to tell you", Huang Jun's expression was not very solemn when he said this, but a little joking, which made Mr. Wu even more unbearable.
"Thanks, but no, now, tell me, what are you hiding from me? I think that now that I am also one of the parties involved, I can't stay out of this matter, you have to know this," Mr. Wu said.
"Okay, it's okay for me to tell you when you talk about it, it's nothing, it's just that I just saw him," Huang Jun said indifferently.
"See...... Who's up?? Mr. Wu obviously didn't react for a while.
"That's the person we're talking about now, Zhang Houbo, I saw him, so I'll ask you about him," Huang Jun said.
"Impossible" Mr. Wu jumped up in suspense, and he didn't know what to do for a while.
"What's impossible, is this something unusual? Isn't your son just a column, why, now you can't accept it? I said a long time ago that I didn't tell you for your own good, and now you are really like this, alas, let me say what is good about you" Huang Jun said in a weird way.
"You lie, you lie, you can't see him, it's not true, you can't" Old Mr. Wu's face became more and more hideous, and Huang Jun suddenly felt a little ...... It's hard to put into words, it's just that this reaction isn't normal.
"Why can't I see him?" Huang Jun asked strangely.
"But, he's dead, he's been dead for twenty or thirty years, how can you see him," Mr. Wu said.
"Of course, he's dead, but what about your child, isn't he also dead? He survived, so when couldn't Zhang Houbo? The more Huang Jun thought about it, the more strange he felt, because according to common sense, Mr. Wu could not have reacted like this.
"You mean to say, he, he, he's alive again?" Mr. Wu said.
"I don't know if I've come back to life, but anyway, I saw him and talked to him for a while, and of course, I also saw his grave," Huang Jun said.
Shu Yao stood aside, but he didn't speak very bizarrely, just quietly watched Huang Jun and Mr. Wu talking, his eyes flashed, but he didn't know what he was thinking.
"Isn't it, do you mean, that he's alive too?" Mr. Wu said.
"If, if it really is, then I think he must have come back to life, although I don't know why he came back to life," Huang Jun said helplessly.
"But how do you know it's Zhang Houbo?" Mr. Wu asked, and when Huang Jun heard Mr. Wu ask this sentence, he knew that Mr. Wu had settled down now, because it was unlikely that a person with a confused mind would ask such a question.
"There's nothing strange about it, he told me himself, didn't I tell you, I talked to him, and he himself told me that his name is Zhang Houbo" Huang Jun said.
"Could it be that someone else is pretending to be him, or, or maybe it's just a liar at all," Mr. Wu said, and when he said the word liar, Mr. Wu fell into a state of excitement again, his face was ruddy, as if he was enduring some great pain.
"It's not impossible for you to say it, but, I'd rather believe that he's true, because, my gut tells me that's it, what, you talk to him...... Particularly cooked? Huang Jun asked casually. Shu Yao, who was familiar with Huang Jun, immediately sensed the ill-intentioned in Huang Jun's questioning.
Mr. Wu obviously didn't realize Huang Jun's intentions, but when Huang Jun asked that sentence, Mr. Wu still looked very panicked, and immediately said: "I'm not familiar with it, I just know."
Shu Yao said: "So we will leave, next time I will bother you, I will tell you any new clues at any time" Mr. Wu nodded, but did not say anything more, obviously, Huang Jun's words gave him a huge stimulus, even Huang Jun himself did not expect such a result, but this is not a bad thing for Huang Jun.
Huang Jun wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Shu Yao, Shu Yao pulled Huang Jun aside, and before Mr. Wu could react, the two left. Walking far away, Shu Yao still looked thoughtful, but Huang Jun couldn't help it, and said, "What's wrong with you, why don't you let me ask?" ”
Shu Yao said: "You've asked enough, why, you still don't give up?" I haven't asked you yet, where do you get so many questions? ”
Huang Jun said: "Why are you still blaming me, what's wrong with you today, so strange, I think everyone is strange today, what's wrong with this, I've lived for so long, I didn't react."
Shu Yao said: "Because you asked a question that shouldn't be asked, this question, you have asked it."
Huang Jun said inexplicably, "Why did I ask, that old Mr. Wu obviously has a ghost in his heart, you can't see it, even if Zhang Houbo has nothing to do with him, I believe he must know something we don't know."
"If people know, they have to tell you, if you continue to ask, it's useless to ask, we should know, don't ask, just look at people's expressions, we shouldn't know, ask again, it's useless" Shu Yao said.
"What's the matter, you don't usually have an attitude towards me today," Huang Jun said.
"Because he's my client, I can't harass my client," Shu Yao said confidently, glaring at Huang Jun as he spoke.
"But, but, didn't you ask me for help? What's the matter, regret it again? Huang Jun said.
"It's not that I regret it, I asked you to help, I didn't ask you to make trouble" Shu Yao.
"Tell me quickly, if there is something hidden from me, tell me, you can't push this matter over, tell me" Huang Jun immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.
Shu Yao said: "I have something to hide from you, first of all, Mr. Wu must know something about this Zhang Houbo, but if we ask him like this, he won't say anything, so we can only take another way, if you ask again, you have to force him to be anxious, there is no result not to say, and I have to suffer a few words of ridicule, you are thick-skinned, I am not as thick-skinned as you."
Huang Jun said: "What you said makes a lot of sense, but you wait, I still have to pass"
Shu Yao said: "Where are you going?" ”
Huang Jundao, "Naturally, I went back to Mr. Wu, otherwise where else could I go?"
Shu Yao said: "I said it in vain just now, what do you want to do, but you can tell people that this time is not trivial."
Huang Jun said: "I won't come openly, won't coming clearly be equivalent to smashing your signboard?" Don't worry, I won't do this kind of thing, but let me tell you, one truth, you will understand my good intentions. You know, if we catch Zhang Houbo, does it mean that we have a big breakthrough? ”
Shu Yao said: "But, that's a person, we don't have the right to arrest him."
Huang Jun said: "Who knows if he is still alone"
Shu Yao said: "You don't know if it's a person" Shu Yao stopped talking after speaking, Huang Jun was stupid, and he knew that Shu Yao must have something to hide from him.
"Shu Yao, listen, you have to confess to me, what the hell is going on" Huang Jun said seriously.
Shu Yao looked at Huang Jun, as if he was hesitating, and after a while, he said, "It's okay, I, I just feel annoyed"
"Why bother? Is it because of that legend? Huang Jun said.
"Yes, I just remember, it wasn't like this at the time, it shouldn't be like this, I don't know what happened later, I, I'm sad" Shu Yao said.
Huang Jun only remembered at this time that Shu Yao's relatives lived here at that time, so there must also be Shu Yao's relatives among those who disappeared, no wonder Shu Yao was like this, thinking of this, Huang Jun said: "Now that things are like this, it's useless to bother, this legend, didn't Mr. Wu tell you before?" ”
Shu Yao said: "No, I just found out today, I have been looking for it all these years, but I just can't find it, it turns out, it turns out, alas"
Huang Jun said: "I didn't experience it at the time, but can you tell me in detail about the future?" ”
Shu Yao said: "Actually, there is really nothing to say, after that incident, everyone returned to normal, and then, they all went home, I remember that I stayed for a day or two before leaving, nothing happened, when I left, everything was fine, but later, later, they were gone"
Huang Jun said: "The main purpose of you coming to me this time is still for them, those who have disappeared, right?" ”
Shu Yao hesitated for a while and said, "Yes, yes."
"Why don't you understand and tell me?" Huang Jundao.
"I don't know how to say it, and besides, after so many years of saying it, there seems to be no better way, I think, you didn't have a good time back then" Shu Yao said.
Huang Jun was silent for a while, and then he thought of Shu Yao's various irrationalities, so he had a reasonable explanation, originally Huang Jun wanted to blame Shu Yao for not telling him the truth, but then Huang Jun figured it out, Shu Yao also seemed to realize that the incident was also a big blow to himself, although he was a blessing in disguise, but he never wanted to mention this matter again, and Shu Yao did not have a definite clue, in desperation, Shu Yao took this opportunity to call himself over, wanting to ask himself to help, thinking of this, Huang Jun's heart was full of guilt, what kind of person is this, and how should he repay him, Huang Jun, who was originally joking about this matter, made up his mind to help Shu Yao find the truth.
"Don't worry, that incident made me very uncomfortable, but it wasn't as serious as you thought, I'll help you find out, I promise" Huang Jun said.
"Really?" Shu Yao said softly, I don't know if this sentence really meant that the incident really hit Huang Jun that badly, or if Huang Jun would really help him find out.
"Of course, it really can't be true", Huang Jun responded, and after answering, Huang Jun smiled, and Shu Yao also smiled.
