Chapter 4: The Pendant Disappears
It turned out to be a dream......
I sat up gasping for air, my back covered in sweat.
No, I remember pinching myself just now, how could it be a dream?!
I smiled wryly, reached out and touched my phone, and saw that it was already six o'clock in the morning, and it was not yet dawn outside the window, and the light rain was still dripping.
When I opened the lock of my phone, I found that it was stuck on the screen of the text message.
This made me suddenly startled, and I hurriedly rubbed my eyes to look, and found that the text message stayed on the last picture that the other party sent to torture them!
This means that I fell asleep while waiting for information?!
I frowned, and for a moment I couldn't come back to my senses. I looked through the previous messages, and sure enough, I fell asleep while waiting for the other party to reply. After that, the other party never replied, and I called again, but I was still in a state of being unable to answer for the time being.
Sitting on the bed, I was a little dazed, not knowing why this happened or who the other person was.
I sighed, lay back on my pillow, and turned around just in time to see the ornaments on the hooks on the wall.
"What's missing?" I muttered to myself.
After looking at it intently for a long time, I suddenly remembered: it was the pendant of the mountain spider's teeth! More than half a year ago in the Cliff of Forgetfulness, after Mazi killed a mountain spider, he pulled out the two fangs of the mountain spider and gave me one.
I used to like that pendant very much, and every time I came back, I would always take it down and play with it, after all, it was something left to me by Mazi, and it was a souvenir.
But then I found out that I always had some strange dreams, and I thought about it, did it have something to do with the pendant that was always placed on the head of the bed? So I hung it back on the wall, I saw it last time I was at home, why is it suddenly gone?
This kind of thing, Su Xiao shouldn't take it away, who will it be?
"Humβ"
I was thinking about it, when suddenly my phone vibrated and I hurriedly picked it up, and it was a message: "I won't hurt them for the time being, but I still have to do something, just start with the people around them!" β
"Bastard!" I scolded, sat up and called again, but I still couldn't get through, so I quickly replied with a message: "You'd better not do anything, otherwise, no matter what you do, as long as I catch you, I will never spare you!" β
After sending this message, the other party never replied. I sat on the bed and was stunned for a few minutes, and when I looked up, the sky outside the window was already bright, the rain had stopped, and the sun appeared in the sky, shining on people lazily.
I couldn't sleep either, so I got up and got dressed, washed up, and walked downstairs to find my second uncle sitting in the dining room eating breakfast while watching the morning news.
"Huh? Why did you get up so early? The second uncle was stunned for a moment when he saw me: "Doesn't it take a long time to sleep every time you come back?" β
I smiled bitterly: "I had a nightmare all night, and I couldn't sleep in the second half of the night!" β
"Come and have breakfast!" The second uncle stretched out his hand and pointed to the egg scones I like to eat on the table: "I just bought it, it's hot, and I don't need to heat it in the microwave." β
I answered, walked over and sat down at the dining table, reached out and picked up the hot egg scones and took a bite: "By the way, second uncle, when I went upstairs last night, I saw a figure outside, and it seemed to be the old man." You say, he's really here for Hanjia? β
The second uncle was stunned when he heard this: "Really? This old man is very mysterious, and I asked him his identity by knocking on the side, but I didn't say anything, and I couldn't really guess who he was. Judging by his body and accent, he should be a southerner. It's just that it looks, it's a little special. If he really came for Han Jia, he had a lot of time to do it, and with the kung fu he showed when he came last time, there should be no problem in stealing Han Jia. At the beginning, the pockmarks could be easily stolen, and this old-timer should be no problem. β
I nodded, in fact, I was also testing the second uncle, with his ability, he wouldn't have been able to see the dark shadow under that rainy night last night. But when I spoke he was stunned, and apparently did not see itβand I could not tell whether it was true or not.
"By the way, I've got a few gadgets missing from my bedroom, and someone has recently come into my room?" I remembered that in the morning I saw that the pendant of the mountain spider's teeth was missing, and I opened my mouth to ask the second uncle.
"What's missing?" The second uncle groaned and said: "Xiaoxiao has the key, I don't know if I've been here or not, Chu Ying's girl seems to have been here a few days ago, and there happened to be a guest at that time, so I asked her to go to your house, did she take it?" β
"Oh." I smiled: "It's nothing, it's just some pendants or something, hanging on the wall to play with, and I came back yesterday to see a few missing." β
After eating breakfast with my second uncle while watching the news, I was cleaning up the table after eating, the door of the store was pushed open, and the sound of a "click" of high heels sounded, I turned my head and saw a slender girl with long hair, sunglasses, and uniform twisting the waist of the water snake and walking in, and after a closer look, it turned out to be Chu Ying!
"Poofβ"
I almost didn't come up in one breath: "Sister, do you still allow your police force to wear like this?" If you don't know, you think you're working in a small island country across the Sea of Japan! β
"Get out!" Chu Ying took off her sunglasses, scolded me, turned her head and called out to the second uncle, and shouted at me: "Don't say a word to me when you come back!" β
"I only came back yesterday, okay?" I looked aggrieved: "Besides, I just had breakfast and told my second uncle, saying that I miss you, you see, Cao Cao Cao arrived, we have a good heart!" β
"Who has a heart for you!" Chu Ying took a sip of me, but her little face was flushed with two blushes, and she turned around in place and asked me, "Is it good-looking?" β
I glared and nodded, "Beautiful!" However, how do I think I am working in an island country! β
"Humph!" Chu Ying said and sat on the chair on the side, took off the high heels on her feet, and took out a pair of flat shoes from her bag and changed them on: "If it weren't for my mother who wanted me to wear it like this, I wouldn't have worn such broken shoes to death!" It's not what people wear at all! β
I put on a look of sudden realization: "Oh-Auntie also thinks you're not human?" β
"What?!"
"No, no, I mean, Auntie doesn't think you're a girl anymore?!"
"Isn't it?" Chu Ying squinted at me.
I swallowed my saliva, thinking to myself that this product had won the Sanda championship in school, although it was far worse than Liang Ruoyi, but I guess I couldn't beat it!
"That...... I'm kidding! I smiled: "You are a flower of the Jinan criminal police, and the moon is shy and beautiful!" Who can ......"
"Alright, alright!" Chu Ying hurriedly waved her hand to interrupt me: "Why do good words change their taste when they come out of your mouth!" β
After that, Chu Ying stood up: "I'm going to work, if you're okay, I'll give you a chance to invite Uncle Ben at night, no!" It's a chance to treat Miss Ben to dinner! β
I couldn't help but laugh: "Okay, thank you, uncle!" No, thank you Miss Chu! β
Chu Ying snorted coldly, said hello to the second uncle, turned around and didn't take two steps, the mobile phone rang, picked up a few words and hung up, and sighed: "Here is the case again!" You're such a broom star, something will happen to you as soon as you come back! β
I was stunned, and suddenly remembered the message in the night, and just about to ask, my mobile phone also rang, and when I picked it up, it was Zhao Jing.
Could it be that something really happened to this kid?! I hurriedly picked it up, and before I could say anything, I heard a sobbing voice from there: "Gu, Gu Rui, my friend has an accident and was killed...... It scared the hell out of me...... Woohoo......"
I stopped Chu Ying, who was just about to go out: "Girl, where is the place where you received the report?" β
"Young IKEA!" Chu Ying turned to look at me: "It seems that a waiter at Qianweilu Restaurant was killed in his rental house, what's wrong?" Don't say you know! β
I nodded, the place where Zhao Jing works is Qianweilu Restaurant, and the place where Zhao Jing lives is in the youth IKEA community not far away. It's impossible, two people in the same store were killed in the same neighborhood at the same time!
"I guess it's a friend of my friend." I pointed to my phone, "I'll go with you." β
Chu Ying had a puzzled expression on her face: "Oh, let's go." β
I said to Zhao Jing, hung up my phone, put on a coat and walked out with Chu Ying, and went straight to the young IKEA.
