Chapter 29 Room 303, Mingsheng Road
"Mingsheng Road?"
Nie Qian looked at me blankly and asked, "What is that place?" β
I put a piece of braised pork in my mouth and said with a greasy mouth: "Xue Zilong's home is the scene of the murder three years ago. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
Nie Qian nodded thoughtfully, and asked with a puzzled expression, "But what are you doing there?" Three years have passed since that case, and the police have found all the clues that should be found, and besides, there must have been a change of person there, how could there be any missing clues left? β
"I know this, in fact, I didn't go there to investigate the case, but to go back to the original point, the immersive feeling may allow me to recover my memory, even if I can't fully recover, it's good to remember something, it's better than waiting here."
Speaking of this, Nie Qian understood, and nodded approvingly.
"You met Xu Long just now, right?" I asked suddenly.
Nie Qian looked at me stunned, as if she didn't understand what I meant.
I took a few more bites of food and asked vaguely, "How else would you know I'm going out at two o'clock in the afternoon?" β
Nie Qian reacted at this time, and nodded again and again, "Hey, I thought you were talking about something, that's right, I met that big policeman at the gate of the hospital, and he told me that you were going out at two o'clock in the afternoon, but he didn't say where to go." β
I frowned slightly, I didn't expect Xu Long's mouth to be quite fast, although it was not inappropriate to tell Nie Qian about his whereabouts, but to say this in front of the hospital seemed to violate his identity as a professional veteran criminal investigator.
Nie Qian looked at me without blinking, as if she was still waiting for her answer.
"Happy Manor's revenge room, I'm going to go again, but before that......" I looked up at the time, "it's eleven o'clock, and I can still find time to visit Xue Zilong's former home." β
"You, you really don't care about your body, you just run around when you get better, what if you get sick again?"
Nie Qian shook her head helplessly, her reproach was purely out of concern, and it didn't stop me, she was a smart girl, so she naturally understood the current situation.
She lowered her head and silently cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks for me, "I'll go and help you go through the discharge procedures in a while, and you have to come back early." β
Nie Qian's empathy made me feel a little guilty in my heart, and I gently hugged her into my arms from behind and said with emotion: "You are becoming more and more like a virtuous wife now." β
Nie Qian pouted and broke free from my arms, gave me a blank look and said, "Who is your wife?" Don't coax me, just go if you want to, just be safe. β
"Yes, thank you for your concern."
I pretended to be a hippie smile, saluted, and walked outside the ward under Nie Qian's shy and happy gaze.
As soon as I walked to the door of the ward, I suddenly stopped, turned around, and told Nie Qian to take care of the case materials before leaving the hospital with peace of mind.
Outside the hospital, the sun shone from the sky, drifting in the air, weaving into a golden yellow, and the gloom of yesterday's whole day was swept away.
It was a hasty decision to go to Mingsheng Road, so much so that when he took a taxi to the gate of Lane 901, he suddenly realized that this decision was not only hasty but also dangerous, and he could be discovered by Lu Yong at any time.
I looked around and suddenly it felt like everyone was becoming suspicious, like they all had the face of a stalker.
I stood still for five or six minutes before I mustered up the courage to walk towards the community, at this moment, it was obviously too late to retreat, if there was really Lu Yong's eyeliner here, even if I didn't go in, Lu Yong would not be stupid enough to think that I just happened to pass by here.
This is my negligence, Nie Qian's gentleness is like a double-edged sword, which not only gives me confidence and courage, but also makes me intoxicated and negligent.
Gentle Township, Hero Mound, probably this is the meaning.
Now it's obviously not going to work, all I can do is make a mistake and just hope that my luck won't be too bad this time.
Lane 901 of Mingsheng Road is an old-fashioned residential area, surrounded by high-rise buildings, and it is still a six-storey old man's house, like a small village surrounded by mountains.
But for me this is good news, otherwise the community reconstruction, then I will run in vain today, but unfortunately, even if I entered the community, I have no impression of here, for the sake of insurance, I specially asked the security guard at the entrance of the community, to make sure that this is three years ago after the 901 lane, before walking towards Room 303 of No. 12.
I don't understand, who can have such a complete amnesia that even being there can't bring back a little memory? Thinking of this, my heart was filled with fear, and things seemed to be out of normal logic and were developing in a strange direction.
Sometimes I really want to blame it all on the supernatural, on the things that I can't see or touch, so that everything that can't be explained will make sense and I can get out of these damn mysteries.
"Huh"
I smiled self-deprecatingly, feeling helpless about my stupid and ridiculous idea, who would want to have such a daydream if we could find out the truth as soon as possible?!
Suddenly, I stopped suddenly, and before I knew it, I was standing at the door of room 303.
As I expected, this place has completely changed, corridors, doors, and even slow-moving air, although I still have no impression of this place three years ago, but it is also very different from the photos on the investigation report, but as Nie Qian said, three years have passed, and this place should have changed a long time ago.
I raised my hand and knocked on the door, and even I didn't understand why it was doing this. Could it be that another Xue Zilong could come out of it?
No one opened the door and no one answered, I had come in vain, I sighed softly, I simply didn't have much hope when I came, so I was not so disappointed now.
It's just that if Lu Yong is killed like this, I don't think I will be willing to be a ghost.
I took out my phone and looked at the time, it was exactly twelve o'clock, there were still two hours before the agreed time with Xu Long, and when I was hesitating about how to pass the time, I thought of Uncle Yan again, he had never seen him since he disappeared that night, he would not evaporate like this, right?
I hesitated to look out Uncle Yan's number, thought about it, or dialed it, his disappearance will not change anything, but it will become a burden on my heart that cannot be removed, maybe finding an answer whether it is good or bad will make me feel more relaxed.
After a brief silence, just when I thought the pleasant female voice was going to come from my phone again, the phone actually went through!
My heart was so excited with complicated emotions that my eyes were bursting out of my throat, my pupils contracted violently, and my body froze in place as if it had been electrocuted.
The reason why I felt so frightened was not that Uncle Yan's phone was connected, but that I found that at the moment the phone was connected, a bell rang behind me!
A ghostly cry echoing through the empty corridors!
I always thought that seeing a ghost was the scariest thing in the world, but at this moment I realized that the real horror is that you have forgotten to be afraid; I thought that the first reaction of human fear was to scream, but now it seems that real fear is silent, it is like a hand that grabs your throat and makes you unable to make a sound.
I swallowed hard, turned around with almost all my strength, and looked at the half-open door not far away, from which the bell was ringing.
I picked up my phone and looked at the number again, and after making sure that it was indeed Uncle Yan's number, an instinctive consciousness urged me to run downstairs.
But before I could go downstairs, someone came out of the half-open door, and suddenly, the person stopped me, and the voice seemed familiar, "Luo Jun? Is that you? β
I stopped suddenly, my shock beyond words, and the reason for my shock was not only that my name was called, but also that my name was called by a strange woman's voice.
I turned my head to look at where the voice had come from, and an elderly woman was standing in the doorway looking at me.
I searched my mind for this strange but somewhat familiar face, and to no avail, I began to doubt my memory, and even wonder if there was really something wrong with my brain, why could she call my name, and I was not sure if I had even met her.
Seeing that I didn't answer, the old woman smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry, I recognized the wrong person." As she spoke, she tried to close the door.
I hurriedly said, "No, you're not mistaken, I'm Luo Jun, but ...... Who are you? β
When the old woman heard this, she showed a kind smile and said, "I can't imagine that you are young, and your memory is not as good as that of an old woman like me, I am your Aunt Yan, don't you remember?" β
"Aunt Yan?" I'm still confused.
"Hey, let's put it this way, I'm your landlord."
"Landlord?!" My eyes suddenly lit up, "It turns out that you are Uncle Yan's ......"
Aunt Yan was very happy to see that I thought of her, and nodded again and again.
"Then this is Uncle Yan's home? No wonder I heard his phone ringing just now! β
"So you made that call?"
"Yes."
I quickly glanced around the house, but I didn't see anyone else, and Uncle Yan didn't seem to be at home.
Aunt Yan probably thought I wanted to enter the house, and after opening the half-open door completely, she looked at me and said, "Xiaojun, come in and sit, you have been in this city for so many years, and you have never come to sit at home." β
Hearing this, I hesitated, after all, she is Uncle Yan's wife, she knows people and faces, but she doesn't know her heart, if they are in a gang, wouldn't she be a sheep? But after thinking about it, no matter whether there is Lu Yong's eyeliner nearby, whether Aunt Yan is loyal or traitorous, his whereabouts today cannot be hidden, Aunt Yan will definitely tell Uncle Yan that he has been here, and the latter does not need to guess to know the purpose of my visit.
If that's the case, then I'm willing to go to this Longtan tiger's den to break through, at least it won't be in vain, as for the future, I can only pray that the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge.
"Joon? Did you hear what Auntie said? Aunt Yan asked again.
"Oh, I heard it, in fact, I've been thinking about coming to see you, and since it's such a coincidence today, I'm bothering you, it's just...... You see, I didn't even have anything to prepare......"
"Hey, my family doesn't like this, if you are willing to sit with me, I will be satisfied."
When Aunt Yan saw that I agreed, she was very happy to lead me into the house.
This is a one-bedroom house, although the place is not big, things are placed in an orderly manner, the floor furniture is spotless, and the green flowers and plants on the windowsill make this home look very warm and vibrant, which shows that Aunt Yan is a very careful and capable woman.
I tried to adjust my breathing, calming my beating heart as much as possible, and pretending to be relaxed, "I remember it was a few years since we last met, right?" I don't even recognize you now, but it's great that you can still recognize me at a glance. β
My compliment made Aunt Yan very useful, she looked at me with a smile and said: "That's not, my good memory is famous, not to mention a few years ago, even more than ten years ago, as long as it was in my eyes, I can remember it clearly." β
I sat down on the sofa in the living room, Aunt Yan poured me a glass of boiled water, and then sat down on the small chair opposite me.
I glanced around the room and asked strangely, "Auntie, why isn't Uncle Yan at home?" Where did he go? β
Aunt Yan was slightly stunned, and then said an extremely strange sentence.
"Where did he go? How? Don't you know? β
