I couldn't help but ask, "How do you know you're going to die today?" ”

The old lady looked at me and said, "Didn't I already sue you?" I can pinch and calculate. ”

I said, "Even if you can do the math, then you can prepare quietly for the rest of the world." Why do you come to the newspaper to toss these? ”

The old lady said, "I can't tell you this, it won't work if I say it." ”

Officer Shi half-jokingly said, "If you don't say it today, you can't leave." ”

The old lady sneered and said, "If you have the ability, you can lock me up." I'm not afraid. Anyway, by eleven o'clock tonight, my life will be gone. ”

At this time, Mr. Lu said lightly: "I'm afraid it's not you who can pinch it, it's someone else." ”

The old lady was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't expect Mr. Lu to say this. But she quickly came back to her senses and said lightly: "You don't have to worry about this." Whoever it is, by tonight, my life will be gone. ”

Officer Shi glanced at the policemen, meaning to let them look at the old lady, and then he invited the three of us out.

Officer Shi rubbed his hands. said: "This is a breakthrough. Apparently the old lady was in the know. If she was willing to tell the truth, everything would be easy. ”

Mr. Lu nodded, and then said with some embarrassment: "But looking at her appearance, it seems that she refuses to say." It's not easy to get the news out of her mouth. ”

Xue Qian patted Officer Shi on the shoulder and said, "Aren't you police able to torture to extract confessions, get this old lady away and beat her, she will definitely say it." ”

Officer Shi hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Brother Xue." Don't make such jokes with me, we don't dare torture me. ”

Xue Qian glanced at him and said, "There are no outsiders here, why don't you admit it?" ”

Officer Shi smiled and said, "To tell you the truth, we do have some means. It is possible to tell the truth. But it's not the hit on the **, it's much more civilized than this. But right...... If what the old lady said was true, she would have died at eleven o'clock in the evening, and we should have too little time to ask anything. ”

Mr. Lu hesitated for a moment and said, "I took a look at the faces of these people, and they are indeed not longevity looks. This age died. There should be no surprise. But I'm now more and more suspicious that there should be someone behind them. What time did they die? And their behavior when they come to publish obituaries is also very uniform. ”

Officer Shi said, "You mean, we have to find this person?" ”

Mr. Lu nodded: "To be honest, I'm not sure if there is a person who can save zài." However, even if there is really such a person, he may not have directly killed these people. Predicting someone else's lifespan doesn't seem to be a crime. ”

Officer Shi said: "Whether he is guilty of breaking the law or not, we all have to investigate him." Is it to know that he is really just a prophecy of life? What if he also participated in the murder of money? ”

Mr. Lu nodded. Then he paced up and down the hallway, muttering quietly, "If this old lady is willing to say something, it will be good." ”

A flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in my mind, and I said, "Mr. Lu, what is the cause of Zhang Yuanchao's death?" ”

Mr. Lu was stunned for a moment: "Maybe it was sudden death, maybe someone took away his soul." What's wrong? ”

I said, "If Zhang Yuanchao was dying and you were standing by his side, would you be able to capture his soul?" ”

Mr. Lu nodded and said, "This is not difficult. ”

I said, "Since we don't have time to interrogate this old lady. Let's just wait for her to die, and at the moment of her death, grab her soul and interrogate her well, don't we know everything? ”

Mr. Lu pondered for a while and said, "This method is feasible, but there is a key point, that is, you can't push it too hard, otherwise, the ghost will become an unjust soul, and the unjust soul will turn into a powerful ghost." Not only will she be a party to the disaster, but our actions will be very detrimental to our virtues. ”

I asked, "Shall we try it then?" ”

Mr. Lu said, "It's okay to try. But don't meddle when the time comes. lest he provoke her. ”

I said, "Don't worry, I won't interfere if you ask me to interfere." ”

Mr. Lu smiled, and then explained two sentences to Officer Shi. Then we went inside the house.

Now the whole newspaper office is watching the excitement as if it is on a big holiday.

Officer Shi walked over and said, "Old lady, it doesn't matter if you don't want to tell the truth, I won't force it." ”

The old lady said lightly: "You little policeman, it's a little interesting." I thought you would torture me like those of your colleagues. ”

Officer Shi ignored her cynicism and continued, "But I still hope to send a few people to protect you, and if I can save your life, it would be the best." ”

The old lady smiled: "Can you still compete with Lord Yama?" Well, if you really have what it takes to get rid of the ghost, then I don't mind living a few more years. ”

Officer Shi nodded and said, "Let's go." ”

These people died in different ways, and their states before death were different. Some eat and drink heavily, and have a party with friends before their death. Some walked through the streets and alleys to see the city for the last time.

The old lady, on the other hand, chose to bathe and change her clothes, and sat at home as if waiting to meet the holy decree, waiting for death to come.

Officer Shi has arranged for two first responders to sit on the couch with the three of us. The policemen were hiding outside the hallway.

Several of us looked at each other, staring at the old lady sitting on the chair, and it felt very funny.

At the beginning, we were solemn, as if we were really welcoming death. Later, we couldn't help but talk in a whisper, and the old lady actually joined us, and she began to talk about her life experience, as if she was going to look back on her life before she died.

The old lady described herself as a scholar who knew astronomy and geography. Carpenters can be taught to make furniture, blacksmiths can be taught to make ironware, soldiers can be taught to fight, and officials can be taught to govern the country. It turned out that these insights of hers had never been adopted. So she lamented that the world is ignorant and stubborn, regards experience as truth, and does not believe in the words of bystanders. After years of self-pity, she turned to teaching students, who, in her words, were a blank slate, didn't understand anything, and taught their own opinions, and they were happy to listen.

I silently thought in my heart: Why do I always think that this is a misguided child?

I just thought about this, the old lady may have said that her mouth is dry. She stood up and said, "I'll go and pour you a glass of water." ”

Xue Qian yawned, took out her mobile phone, and said, "What time is it?" I don't know if it's time. ”

Then, he whispered, "It's broken." ”

I was startled and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Xue Qian handed over the phone and said, "It's going to be eleven o'clock soon." ”

At this time, the old lady happened to come out with a kettle, and she said to the two first responders: "I think there are still things that can be improved in your work, such as...... Oops. "[Wonderful * pen * 閣~] miao pen ge. update fast

She stumbled on her feet and fell to the ground solidly. My head hit the ground, and there was a muffled bang, and it hurt to hear it.

Two first responders immediately rushed over and helped the old lady up to give first aid.

Mr. Lu patted me on the shoulder and said, "Zhao Mang, put the corpse tooth in your mouth." ”

Mr. Lu pointed to a puddle of water stains on the ground and said, "Don't look at it, look at the water." ”

The water came from the old lady's broken kettle. I had a corpse tooth in my mouth, and as I looked at the water, I saw that it was becoming clearer and clearer, and gradually reflected the scene inside the room. It's just that the scene inside this puddle of water is much darker.

I looked at it for a while, and suddenly I saw the old lady standing in the water, scurrying around, trying to get out of the house. It's just that all the doors and windows of this house have been forbidden by Mr. Lu, and she tried several times, but they were all blocked.

The old lady's soul became more and more agitated, and she was like a headless fly, stumbling around the room like a headless fly
