Chapter 529: Clues
When I heard the mobile phone ringing, I hurriedly turned on the light and sat up from the bed, took the mobile phone on the cabinet and took a look, and found that it was Zhao Man who called me.
What is she calling me for this big night? Is there any urgency? With doubts in my heart, I answered the phone.
"Hey, Thirteen, where are you now?" Zhao Man's eager voice came from the other end of the phone.
"I'm in the fat man's house, what's wrong Sister Zhao Man?" I asked.
After Zhao Man heard my words, he hurriedly said:
"You wait for me at the fat man's house, and I'll drive over right away." After saying that, she hung up the phone without waiting for me to speak.
Her resolute personality hasn't changed at all.
I sat on the bed and was a little confused, what was the urgency of Zhao Man's anxious coming to me? Thinking in my heart, I put on my clothes, got out of bed and walked into the living room, poured myself a glass of water, and drank it while sitting on the sofa in the living room and waiting for Zhao Man to come.
In less than half an hour, there was a knock on the door, I hurriedly got up and walked over, looked out towards the cat's eye, and saw that it was Zhao Man standing outside the door waiting, holding a black leather bag in her hand.
Hurriedly opened the door, and Zhao Man walked in as soon as he saw me.
She walked into the living room, first put the black bag in her hand on the table, and then gasped and asked me:
"Thirteen, is there any water?"
"Yes!" As I spoke, I found a water cup, poured a cup of hot water for Zhao Man, and handed it over.
"Sister Zhao Man, you are in a hurry, is there anything urgent?" I asked Zhao Man.
Zhao Man first drank the glass of water I handed her, and then looked at me panting and said:
"Thirteen, I helped you find the relevant record of the 'Yin Yang Island' in the Yellow River."
After hearing Zhao Man's words, I didn't react at first, but when I understood the meaning of her words, I suddenly felt a burst of ecstasy in my heart, and looked at Zhao Man with some excitement and asked:
Zhao ...... Sister Zhao Man, you didn't tease me, did you? "It's not that I don't believe her, but there is a record of 'Yin Yang Island', I have also checked it on the Internet, and there is no record of it at all.
After Zhao Man heard what I just said, he put the water cup in his hand on the table and said a little unhappily:
"Thirteen, I'm so late, I came to you in a hurry, just to tease you?!"
I hurriedly shook my head and apologized to Zhao Man apologetically:
"No, I didn't mean that, I was just too excited just now, I couldn't believe it was true, I'm sorry, Sister Zhao Man."
Zhao Man didn't care about me, waved her hand, and then opened the black bag she had placed on the table before, and then took out a very old book from it and handed it to me.
I took it from Zhao Man's hand and saw that there were a few big characters written on the cover of this ancient cowhide book: "Strange Things and Personas of the Yellow River before Liberation".
Looking at the "Strange Persona of the Yellow River Before Liberation" in my hand, which could have been used for dozens of years, I asked Zhao Man who was sitting on the sofa:
"I said Sister Zhao Man, you, where did you get this old book? I guess it's older than my grandfather. "I opened the cover of this book "Strange Things and Personas of the Yellow River before Liberation", and scanned the catalog, and sure enough, there was a catalog about the "Yin Yang Island".
Zhao Man didn't answer my words immediately, but picked up the water cup on the table again and handed it to me:
"Go and pour me another glass of water, and I'll tell you when I've drunk it."
I did so, poured another glass of water for Zhao Man, handed it to her, and waited for her to speak.
"This book "Strange Things and Persona of the Yellow River Before Liberation" was stolen from the collection of supernatural things in our supernatural investigation team." After Zhao Man finished drinking the water, he looked at me and said.
"Stolen?" When I heard this, I was a little surprised.
"Yes, now these things belong to the state, even I and Team Yue don't have the ability to take this book out of the supernatural things collection directly, we must write a report first, and then submit an application, and after the report application is approved, we can take this book out of there. But you're going to go to the Yellow River tomorrow to find the 'Yinyang Island', and if I write an application, it will definitely be too late, so I'm going to make this decision and steal it directly." Zhao Man looked at me and explained.
"Sister Zhao Man, how did you know that we would leave tomorrow?" I looked at her a little confused and asked, I didn't tell her about the departure.
Zhao Man smiled and said:
"Just what the fat man texted me tonight to tell me, whatever action you decide, the fat man will tell me in advance, otherwise I would have been in such a hurry to send this book over."
it! The fat man, a bastard who is heavy on sex and light on friends, sold me like this! This kid is too unprincipled and careless in making friends.
"By the way, Thirteen, I'm here not only to send this book, but also to discuss something with you." Zhao Man looked at me and asked.
"What's the matter?" I asked.
"You set off for the Yellow River tomorrow, and I want to go with you." Zhao Man stared at me with a pair of clear and delicate eyes and said.
"That's not good, there are too many uncertainties to find the ethereal 'Yin Yang Island'." I decisively rejected Zhao Man's request, not because I didn't understand people, but because I didn't want to involve her because of this matter.
"No promise?" Zhao Man looked at me and asked again.
"Nope." I shook my head.
"Then you will return to me the book "Strange Things and Personas of the Yellow River Before Liberation". Zhao Man said.
Damn, is this talking to me? Obviously you're trying to blackmail me!
"Sister Zhao Man, didn't you just say to discuss with me?" I looked at Zhao Man and asked.
"Yes, I'm talking to you, you can decide whether to let me go with you, and I can also decide whether to give you this book, so ah, let's discuss it." Zhao Man looked at me with a smile and said.
"I ......" After hearing Zhao Man's words, I was a little speechless, it was obvious that Zhao Man came this time to go with us. And in this book "Strange Persona of the Yellow River Before Liberation", there will be a record of the 'Yin-Yang Island', and whether I can find the 'Yin-Yang Island' is very important to me now, so I need this book.
"Thirteen, how's it going? Have you decided? Zhao Man looked at me and asked again.
"Do I have any other choice?" I said with a wry smile.
"You just agreed, I didn't force you, we discussed it." Zhao Man said and glanced around the fat man's room and asked me:
"Thirteen, which room do you sleep in?"
I stretched out my hand.
When Zhao Man saw it, he got up and walked towards the room, and said to me as he walked:
"It's too late tonight, I won't go to sleep in your room, you sleep on the sofa."
Seeing Zhao Man walk into the house and close the door, I sat on the sofa helplessly, poured myself a glass of water, and was also thinking in my heart, why did Zhao Man suddenly have to follow me and the fat man to find the 'Yin Yang Island'?
I wasn't confident enough that she decided to go with us because she liked me or the fat man, so there must be a secret she didn't want to tell us, and she went to the 'Yin Yang Island' this time, and she had her own purpose in it.
It's just that since I promised her to go with me, I didn't think much about this matter, so let's take a look at the record of 'Yin Yang Island' in this book first.
Thinking of this, I flipped through the table of contents and turned to the page about the record of 'Yinyang Island', and I was dumbfounded.
Because in this book, the pages about the 'Yinyang Island' were torn off.
I was played by Zhao Man's girls again!! Thinking of this, I hurriedly got up and walked quickly towards the room where Zhao Man was......
"Sister Zhao Man, why are the pages of the 'Yin Yang Island' record in the book you gave me all torn off?" I asked, knocking on the door.
"Put it on me, you call me up early tomorrow morning, I'm giving it to you, so I don't have to worry about you leaving me to sneak away by myself, you can rest assured that you can sleep peacefully, good night, thirteen ......" Zhao Man's lazy voice came from inside the room.
