Chapter 31: The Shadow of the Lonely Grave (5)

Officer Hao grabbed the teacup on the table very unnaturally, and almost wanted to put it to his lips but gave up halfway. There are some memories that have been dusty for years, and in his mind, there are scenes like movie scenes, telling those things that he wants to forget but dare not forget.

Lin Kang looked at Officer Hao's uncertain face with interest, as if he had personally experienced the incident, but he was unwilling to tell it, but sat on the side and watched what kind of story the narrator wanted to make up and what kind of facts he wanted to hide.

"What do you know?" The cup of tea was finally brought to Officer Hao's lips, and he took a sip before frowning.

"I don't know anything, but I've seen something." Lin Kang said unhurriedly.

"What's that?" Lin Kang's answer seemed to be very unexpected by Officer Hao, but this answer seemed to be more serious than all the answers he could imagine.

"A lonely grave...... And ......" Lin Kang paused deliberately, he clearly saw the muscles on Officer Hao's face twitch uncontrollably, and then continued, "And the person sitting in your co-pilot." After saying that, Lin Kang stood up and walked to Officer Hao's side and patted him on the shoulder meaningfully.

Officer Hao didn't take the small notebook he had with him when he left, for him, the long-sealed case once again poked at the sore spot in his heart, and most importantly, with his years of experience, everything that this junior high school student named Lin Kang showed was beyond the maturity of this age, which was why he believed in Lin Kang's words, and he felt that something might really start to develop in a terrible direction.

Officer Hao opened the car door to leave when all the people stood aside, in the words of the principal, this is a respect for Officer Hao, but this respect in Officer Hao's eyes has become a disguised irony, he opened the door and stood on one side for a long time, and from time to time squinted to look at the co-pilot, every time he saw the same, the co-pilot has not been seated for a long time, and even a thin layer of dust fell on the seat in the light.

"That'...... I'll go first......" Officer Hao tugged at the car door with one hand, and kept rubbing his fingers against the door.

"Well, Officer Hao, you drive carefully, we won't be far away." The principal was also quite satisfied with today's events, although Liu Cui's death had nothing to do with everyone present, but driven by Officer Hao's words, even the principal was a little suspicious of how a living person could be squeezed in front of his eyes, unless there was some very special reason. Whatever the reason, at least as it stands, it seems that this matter has nothing to do with the school, and that is enough for the principal.

Officer Hao hesitated for a moment, but finally put his foot into the car, and then the whole person got in. When he closed the car door and fastened his seat belt, Officer Hao looked at Lin Kang through the window glass, Lin Kang's empty eyes were looking intently at the co-pilot of the car at this time, Officer Hao followed Lin Kang's gaze and looked to the right again, there was still nothing, but Lin Kang's eyes made Officer Hao feel a burst of coolness in the car, he didn't dare to linger any longer, hung up the gear and kicked the accelerator and rushed out of the school gate.

As soon as Officer Hao left, Lin Kang's body trembled, and he looked at the dust that was still suspended in the air inexplicably and asked, "What are we standing here for?" Didn't you say that there was something wrong with coming to school? ”

"Lin Kang, are you okay?" Cao Mengli pushed Jiang Xiaoxue, who was standing beside Lin Kang, and quickly put the back of her hand on Lin Kang's forehead.

Lin Kang instinctively dodged back, but the movement of his body was not as fast as the movement speed of his arms after all, and before Lin Kang's backward foot touched the ground, Cao Mengli's hand was already attached to Lin Kang's forehead. "Lin Kang, aren't you feeling well?" Cao Mengli asked with "concern".

"I'm fine." Lin Kang pushed Cao Mengli's hand away, to tell the truth, Cao Mengli, a person with a big grinning personality, suddenly had a delicate mind like a small jasper, which made Lin Kang very uncomfortable, and he didn't feel anything about Cao Mengli, or Lin Kang, who was at this age and had experienced an unusual family background, did not have the energy to feel the feelings between the opposite sex.

The principal gave a few words and let the students go home. Lin Kang walked out of the school gate in confusion, he really couldn't understand what he was called to the school for today, in his memory, he received Tang Yingying's call and saw the lonely grave not far from the school gate, and then Tang Yingying stopped him, and then they went to the school together, and then they stood at the school gate and looked at the flying dust, and after reading it, the principal let them go home. That's all he remembers coming to school today.

Lin Kang took out his watch from his pocket, it was already the end of school, so he could be very sure of one thing, what happened this afternoon was definitely not so simple, no matter how much these things were delayed, it would not be possible to delay until the end of school in the afternoon, unless someone gave him a stuffy stick to make him miss something that happened. The more Lin Kang thought about it, the more anxious he became, and all of them would have a feeling of curiosity and fear about the blank memory, and the anxiety derived from this feeling would soon evolve into anxiety.

Suddenly, a stone tripped Lin Kang, and Lin Kang, who was immersed in his own thoughts, bent down and rushed forward a few steps without paying attention, but fortunately, Lin Kang's pace was not fast, otherwise it would be easy to break bones if he fell in this weather. Lin Kang looked back in annoyance to find the culprit, and when he shook his head, his eyes slid over the field not far away, and Lin Kang suddenly remembered that it was in this position that he saw the lonely grave. The sky had already darkened, and the visibility was no longer up to the requirements of finding things, so Lin Kang could only rely on his pupils, which had slowly dilated with the arrival of the night, to try to discern whether there was something different in this emptiness.

To his disappointment, there was nothing there, and he sighed and turned back to continue walking, only to find that the road was crowded with people again, exactly like when school was out. Perhaps because of the lack of light, there was no expression on these people's faces, and they just walked like that, walking in unison and at an even pace, more like puppets under the puppet line than normal people.

......With the sound of a whistle, a motorcycle sped by, and the wind blew on Lin Kang's face, and a bone-chilling chill spread through his skin.

"Aren't they cold? It's still riding so fast at this time of the season......" Lin Kang shuddered, and his hair trembled a few times.

It was too cold, Lin Kang breathed a sigh of relief, a ball of white floated out of his mouth, he rubbed his hands vigorously and was about to lift his steps and hurry back, but found that the people on the road had stopped in place, and everyone was looking straight at the field not far away.

Lin Kang didn't know what was going on, so he turned his head and looked over there, in the darkness, a vague mound of earth looked like a bulge standing there alone, and there was a figure sitting beside him, like a grave keeper in a novel.

Lin Kang's feet seemed to be driven by some kind of force, and he turned around without obeying the call, and walked towards the shadow standing in the field step by step......
