Chapter 4: Corpses
I looked at the time again, and it was only 8 o'clock! Sleep so early? Don't you just want to talk nonsense with me? Forget it, anyway, the days are still long and there is still more time. It's just that it's not familiar now, but when it's familiar later, it'll be fine. I couldn't help but laugh at the thought of this.
After washing, I also went back to my room, lay on the bed, and hugged my little bear, thinking about the next days with the handsome guys, it also felt great. So I turned on my phone and wanted to take a look, but I suddenly remembered that Meng Yingjiu and I didn't leave each other's phones. But he's already asleep, hey, I'll ask tomorrow, so I started brushing **.
Browse to our official blog, turn to the one that dug up the ancient coffin last night**, and see everyone's comments. Sure enough, everyone was curious, and most of the comments were speculative or amazing, after all, nothing like this had been dug up in the downtown of the main city.
But one retweet caught my eye: the best things were yet to come. It's a forwarded one called "Unknown", and it also brings a big V.
What, this is, I'll click on it and see it. "Unknown"** certification: a well-known magazine that takes you to explore and discover the mysterious and unknown world.
Well-known magazines? I haven't heard of it, and I don't pay much attention to magazines in this area, but at least that's my competitor in this matter. So I started looking through his **.
According to the editor's understanding, the mysterious coffin of the stone bridge shop is made of catalpa wood. In ancient times, Azusa wood was used by powerful people, since it was a powerful person, but the tomb specifications were too simple, even perfunctory. What kind of hidden truth is hidden in it? The editor will continue to investigate in depth and unravel the secrets that have been sealed for you for a hundred years.
Although Professor Li also said this, I am also very curious, but this is too imaginable, where did so many secrets come from. And without mentioning the strange oracle bones, I doubt that they have actually seen the ancient coffin with their own eyes. I think the most likely thing is: that is the treasure buried by others, and it will definitely not be a monster in it, this is the 21st century, it is too unrealistic. And the coffin is about to be moved to the museum, so I'll see how you dig deeper.
Reading them one by one, they are all about strange and supernatural things, as well as unknown creatures and aliens, which makes my back chill. Forget it, let's take a look at the popular ** and ease up.
Before I knew it, it was 11 o'clock at night, and I was ready to go to bed, so I went out to the bathroom. The living room was dark, but the light in Meng Yingjiu's room was on, leaking through the crack in the door. Sure enough, how could you go to bed so early, it seems that you just don't want to talk to me.
I crept close to his door to hear what he was doing. I leaned my whole body against the door, my ears against the door, but I didn't hear anything, there was no movement inside. Could it be that he is sleeping with the light on? He's actually afraid of the dark?
Suddenly, the doorknob of the door turned, and the door opened, and I didn't react at all, so I fell in.
"Ahh I wondered how this door could be opened? I'm so skinny!
I fell on top of a person, it was Meng Yingjiu, and I found that he was still wearing the clothes he had just had. He was kind enough to give me a hand. Still without any tone, he said, "What are you doing?" ”
As soon as I stood firm, I retreated out the door. "I, I, I'm just passing through." I scratched my head, "That's where I almost fell, but luckily you opened the door in time, hahahaha, thank you." "I can't imagine how embarrassed my face was.
"It's good that you didn't fall, let's rest early." After saying that, he closed the door with a blank face.
It was so humiliating, I almost wanted to jump off the balcony. My image must be infinitely worse now! He doesn't think I'm a perverted weird sister, he's so unlucky.
Is it really important to say it three times? "Okay." I replied, putting the bag back in my pajama pocket. When I got back to my room, I immediately went back to my room, and I lay on the bed, and the more I thought about it, the more I felt that it was over. If I find someone sneaking outside my door and eavesdropping on me, I'll give him two slaps. But now that I'm that pervert myself, what did I think at the time? Why eavesdropping?
No, I'll sit up. I didn't hear his footsteps before I opened the door, and the sound of walking was too quiet. And why did he know that I was outside, and he didn't come out after opening the door, since he didn't come out to go to the toilet, did he open the door to catch me? Best of all, I didn't even ask for his phone number! That's all about tomorrow.
In the morning, I woke up before my alarm went off, and when I looked at my phone, it was only 7:30. But I couldn't sleep anymore, and when I thought of what happened last night, I felt that I had nothing to love, so I simply got up.
When I opened the door, I saw Meng Yingjiu, who was about to go out. "You're going out, so early?"
"Yes."
Seeing that he was about to open the door and leave, I was a little anxious, and even asked, "Then will you come back for dinner in the evening?" “
He turned his head to look at me and didn't answer. "Well, before that, Xiao Wu and I used to buy vegetables together and cook them at home, and then spread them evenly, we? You, what do you think? ”
"Okay." With that, he was leaving.
I hurriedly ran to him and said, "What's your phone number?" Well, it's easier for us to get in touch, after all, under one roof. "After that, I felt a little embarrassed myself.
"I don't have a cell phone." His tone was as calm as if he were saying that he didn't have an aircraft carrier.
"Ahh So how do we go grocery shopping together in the afternoon? As soon as I said that, I was also drunk with my own thoughts.
He thought for a moment and said, "At 6 p.m., I'll wait for you downstairs." ”
As soon as I heard the words "wait" for me, my heart melted. I could only say stupidly, "Okay." You go get busy first! "Yes." He nodded in reply, then opened the door and went out.
After closing the door, I was in ecstasy. Thinking of waiting for me, I was almost dizzy. Waiting for me downstairs at 6pm, so sweet. 6 p.m.? It suddenly occurred to me that this sweetness might not come so easily!
First of all, given the nature of my work, it's a question of whether I can show up here on time at 6 p.m. And, he doesn't have a cell phone? If I can't come, how can I contact him? But if you think about it, if I can't get there, he won't be stupid enough to wait for me downstairs all the time, in fact, he just looks a little strange, and his brain should be very bright. In this era, there are still people who don't have mobile phones!
I'd better come back early in the afternoon. I went back to my room, looked at my phone, it was still early, I could put on some makeup, put on a nice dress, and dress up. Suddenly I saw me in the mirror in the room, and I felt even more loveless!
I sleep with my hair tied up on top of my head at night, and after a night's sleep, my bangs are flying all over the place, and the whole look is miserable. I really don't know how kind Meng Yingjiu is to agree to wait for me to go grocery shopping with me.
Anyway, this afternoon, I must amaze him and let him know that I am also "light and heavy." "We have to regain the image that we have lost.
After dressing up, he said to his beautiful self in the mirror: "Meng Yingjiu, wait for me obediently in the afternoon!" ”
When I came to the office, there were few people in the office, and they all went out to run a new one, and Xiao Zhang and I were the ones who were "people's livelihood". The so-called "mouth" is the type of news section that each reporter is responsible for, and everyone does their own news. Our "people's livelihood" is to report on some trivial things in society. Occasionally, when there is no news on the mouth, it is randomly arranged, and whoever has time will go wherever there is news.
Xiao Zhang, who was sitting opposite me, asked with a smile: "Lin Min, what's the matter, are you going on a blind date today?" "Blind date? I think about it, and Meng Yingjiu, it's also very good. So he replied, "Yes, I'm going on a blind date after work today!" Help me get to the appointment today! If there's news in the evening, you'll have to go for me. ”
"This kind of help must be helped! But you'll have to invite me to dinner when it's done! ”
"Eat, eat, you know how to eat, by the way, how are you doing on your weight loss topic?" I asked as I flipped through the newspaper.
Xiao Zhang sighed and said, "Don't mention it, I was stopped." ”
"How so?" I looked up at him, "Wasn't the leader quite optimistic when the meeting was held on Monday?" ”
"Have you forgotten that yesterday, city leaders went to visit elementary school students? Which is more important, you still don't know? These are the original words of Old Man Zheng this morning. ”
We all call Editor-in-Chief Zheng Old Man Zheng in private.
"He's here so early, huh?"
Xiao Zhang nodded and said, "Isn't this a big deal?" ”
Seeing his lost appearance, I comforted: "Don't worry, Xiao Zhang, it's over now, it's your turn." ”
"I hope so! Actually, it's nothing, I'm used to it, after all, we are a party newspaper. ”
I don't know what he meant by pride or helplessness, so I could only say, "Hey, it's all for the sake of eating." ”
"There's no news today!" Xiao Zhang said while looking at the computer.
"Then wait for the news above, it's so early, and there won't be a hotline call." After flipping through the newspaper, I also started reading ** on the computer.
I turned to the ** of "Unknown" again, so I asked Xiao Zhang: "Xiao Zhang, do you know the magazine "Unknown"? ”
He poked his head out from behind the computer and whispered, "What, you're going to change jobs?" ”
I gave him a blank look and said, "I don't change jobs, it's just that they still have to continue to report on the ancient coffin of Shiqiao, and it's very mysterious." ”
"Didn't you say that the Cultural Relics Bureau wouldn't open the coffin? And it's going to be moved to the museum. "yes, I don't know, how else can they report? Maybe you have to write and act yourself? ”
"Don't all these small magazines like this, they attract people's attention." Xiao Zhang said disdainfully.
"That's not the point, I'm curious if you've seen the coffin with your own eyes. And that environment, and that. "I originally wanted to tell the story of the strange snake told by the old worker, but at this time a message came from the group.
"A corpse floated on the riverside of the Yangtze Riverside Road." But no one replied, and I couldn't help but say, "What's going on?" Is there no one left?
Xiao Zhang said: "I don't dare to run this news, how terrifying it is!" It seems that there have been a lot of cases recently! He was still babbling about the last time he reported on a car accident, scaring him so much that he didn't want to go to that scene again. At this time, I also sent a message in the group saying that I was going to run the news.
When Xiao Zhang saw it, he immediately stopped and asked me, "Are you really going?" ”
"Of course it's true."
"This is also the first time you have interviewed this kind of news, I tell you, don't look into the eyes of the dead!"
I usually pack up and ask, "Why?" ”
"Anyway, it's not good, a master told me before, just last time, I went to the scene of the car accident was really terrible, and then I went to find a master"
I didn't want to hear him say all that frivolous things, and I didn't believe them, so I interrupted him: "Xiao Zhang, I don't see that you are quite superstitious. ”
"It's not superstition, there are some things you really do"
"Alright." I interrupted him again: "I'm going to leave now, I'll talk about it when I get back!" With that, I set off for Binjiang Road.
When I arrived, reporters from other newspapers had already arrived, and it seemed that it was a step too late today. When I entered, the police were carefully examining the corpse, and I hurriedly took a picture from a distance, only to see the corpse lying on the edge of the river in a very strange posture, as if it was about to climb out of the river, and I really didn't dare to approach it for a while.
