Chapter 490: Providence
The room fell silent. Mr. Lu said to Officer Shi: "I can't help you with the rest of the matter." If it is really related to ghosts and gods, let me know. ”
Officer Shi nodded. He sent us out.
The owner of the tofu brain stall said to us, "Masters, are you still coming to drink tofu brain tomorrow?" Don't want money. ”
Mr. Lu smiled and said, "How can you eat and drink for nothing?" I can afford to pay for a meal. ”
The boss smiled: "Afford it, afford it." Then he asked, "Surely you will come tomorrow?" ”
Mr. Lu smiled and nodded: "I must come." ”
The boss left happily.
I smiled at Xue Qian and said, "Old Xue, the owner of the tofu stall seems to be more addicted to watching the excitement than you." ”
Xue Qian yawned and said, "I'm not just watching the excitement. With the light of the two of you, I'm a master now. I'm going to set up a table in the store one day to hunt ghosts and demons. ”
The three of us talked all the way until it was almost dawn, and then we got home.
Mr. Lu and Xue Qian went back to sleep, and I collapsed on the broken bed.
I slept in the dark. When I wake up again. I saw the sun warm outside.
It was about to get hot, and I walked along the road with my coat open. Unconsciously walked to the tofu brain stall.
The boss seemed to be waiting for me, and said excitedly: "Master Zhao, you are here." Hurry up and sit. Then without waiting for my instructions, bring me a bowl of tofu brain.
I was a little embarrassed and said, "Don't be so enthusiastic. ”
The boss said, "How can you not be enthusiastic." If you buy my tofu brain, you are my food and clothing parents. ”
I hurriedly waved my hand and said, "Don't say that." The two of us pay with one hand and deliver with the other. Fair Dealing. No one owes anyone. ”
The boss smiled and said, "Brother Zhao, why are you so serious? Then he sat down next to me, mysteriously pulled out a newspaper, and said, "Here we go again." ”
I asked, "What's coming again?" ”
The boss said mysteriously, "What did you say again?" Obituary. ”
I opened the crumpled newspaper and saw another obituary in the corner. As in the previous two days, the person on the obituary was wearing a black suit. His eyes were blank, and he was looking ahead.
I was staring at the picture when suddenly a cold hand was placed on top of my head.
I shuddered, reflexively, and with an elbow, I struck it backwards.
Then, I heard Xue Qian's moaning sound behind me.
I looked back. He was holding his stomach, gasping for air, and complained in his mouth: "Lao Zhao, you are too ruthless." Bold and black-hearted, the six relatives do not recognize. ”
I waved my hand and said, "My heart is not black, and I am not bold. What are you doing with your hands on my head? I thought I had met a ghost again. ”
I handed him the newspaper and said, "Another obituary." ”
Mr. Lu asked the boss, "Do you know this person?" ”
The boss said: "The noodles are cooked, I must have eaten tofu brain here, but I don't know what his name is." Then, the boss said, "Shall we inquire again?" ”
Mr. Lu nodded, and then sat down at the table with Xue Qian.
The owner of the tofu brain stall put a few bowls of tofu brain in us, and then began to ask the neighbors who this person was.
I asked Mr. Lu, "You can seduce the soul unconsciously." Can we fight such a terrible ghost? ”
Mr. Lu waved his hand and said, "You are thinking in the wrong direction. In fact, Zhang Yuanchao's death is nothing special, it is almost the same as a normal death. Without this obituary, no one would have doubted. So the strange thing is that how did he predict his death in advance? ”
I looked at today's newspaper again and said, "It is published here, the old man's death time is half past two in the afternoon, what time is it?" ”
Xue Qian looked at her watch and said, "It's two and fifteen, and there are still fifteen minutes." ”
The three of us were talking, and the boss suddenly pointed to the front and shouted at us, "See, see, isn't the one in front?" ”
I looked up and sure enough, there was an old man, dressed in a black suit, walking on the road. His steps were unsteady, and he walked step by step, as if he was full of trouble.
Mr. Lu stood up and said, "Let's follow." ”
The four of us stood behind the old man.
The old man seemed to have a lot of nostalgia for the world, and kept looking around along the way. We can see clearly that he is indeed the old man in the photo.
Xue Qian looked at her watch and said, "It's coming soon." ”
By this time, the old man had slipped from our street to the crossroads.
Our street is very small, there are many small traders and vendors around, and the street is mostly bicycles and few cars. But when you get to the intersection, it's a main road, and it's full of traffic.
The old man seemed to be about to run a red light, and in the blink of an eye, he was already in the middle of the road.
The owner of the tofu stall hurriedly said, "We have to save him." The old man can't be allowed to die like this. ”
Mr. Lu shook his head and said, "I'm afraid you won't be able to save it." ”
By this time, the old man was almost across the road. Suddenly, a car came in the distance, driving extremely fast, as if out of control. And the old man didn't realize it, and still walked slowly.
The boss shouted loudly: "Run, there is a car." ”
The old man's body trembled suddenly, as if he had heard it, and he hurriedly took a step forward. The car drove past him.
The boss breathed a sigh of relief and said excitedly, "Look, my life was saved by me." ”
At this time, a huge billboard fell, and with a loud bang, the old man fell to the ground.
The boss looked at him dumbfounded: "What? What's going on? Why are you still dead? ”
Xue Qian showed her phone to the boss, and the time displayed on it was exactly 2:30. Not a little more, not a little less.
The boss looked at me, and then at Mr. Lu: "Did I hurt him?" Then, he slapped himself heavily: My mouth is really underbeaten.
As he spoke, he hit it twice more, and soon, his cheeks were high and swollen.
I grabbed him and said, "Don't fight, if you don't stop him, he won't live." The car was driving so fast just now, and you didn't see it. ”
Mr. Lu sighed and said, "Providence, this is Providence. It seems that the death of this old man today is not bad from the prophecy. ”
There were already quite a few people around there. But we didn't get involved.
The boss sat on the side of the road, looking at the old man's body with a look of remorse. "At first, I thought it was bizarre and wanted to get to the bottom of it and satisfy my curiosity," he says. Unexpectedly, he killed a good person like this. I'm afraid that after I die, the old man will have to ask for my life. ”
I patted him on the shoulder and said, "If it weren't for you, he would have been hit by that car a few minutes ago." Speaking of which, you gave him a few more minutes to live. Alright, don't blame yourself. It's none of your business. ”
In the distance, I could already hear the siren, and I said, "The police will come in a while, and if you ask, don't talk nonsense." ”
Soon, both police and doctors arrived at the scene. After a symbolic rescue for a while, they announced that the old man was dead. Soon, a policeman came up to us and asked, "Did you see what happened?" ”
I nodded and said, "The old man ran the traffic light, and the car didn't hit him, but the billboard fell and hit." "In between, I omitted the plot of the tofu brain boss. The boss looked at me with a grateful face. [妙 * 筆 * 閣 ~] miao pen ge update fast
At this time, Officer Shi called.
I said, "There's another dead here." It's the obituary above. ”
Officer Shi's voice was a little low, and he said, "I already know. Would you like to come along? I'm at the newspaper. ”
I looked at the newspaper in my hand and said, "Okay." Coming soon. ”
The four of us took a car and drove all the way to the newspaper office. There were a few young people inside, looking nervously at Officer Shi and the others.
When Officer Shi saw us coming, he pointed to the young men and said, "They are responsible for this matter. ”
The young people said with bitter faces, "Why are we responsible?" We can't afford that. ”
