Chapter 8: Mysterious Faces
There were only two bedrooms in the rental house and there were three of us. I think we slept separately, with the two of us in the bedroom and the other in the living room.
In fact, this kind of sleeping method has been used before, so I suggested it to them, and emphasized that I didn't say anything, and it was no problem to sleep in the living room.
But the iron donkey and the old cat both shook their heads and said that it was not so troublesome, that they would just live together, and then without waiting for me to say anything, they went to a bedroom with their shoulders hooked.
I looked at their backs, and said in my heart that the old cat was originally quite lonely, why does he love to sleep with the iron donkey now? I don't understand his heart.
With that left me alone, I silently went to another bedroom.
It's all soft beds, it's very comfortable to lie down, and after a tiring day, I closed my eyes and fell asleep not long after.
I had a strange dream that the old cat had become a woman and had married an iron donkey. All of us attended their wedding, especially at the wedding scene, the old cat had to sing a song, but it was so bad that everyone covered their ears.
I woke up from the strange nightmare, and found that my head hurt and I had a fever, and there was a real singing voice in my ears, still a high-pitched voice, which seemed to be singing outside my door.
I rubbed my eyes vigorously and turned my head to look out the door. But there was no light inside or outside the house, and the black rumbling couldn't see anything.
I thought to myself, is it really an old cat? He learns to sing women in the middle of the night? Otherwise, it can't be an iron donkey, and the donkey brother is not so strange.
I want to go out and have a look, and by the way, I persuade the old cat to stop singing, it's too disturbing to the people.
I sat up to get out of bed, and I looked out again. There was also a piece of ground glass on the bedroom door, which was useless at first, but now, there was a woman's face lying on it.
It was pale with no blood at all, and it had long hair and two big eyes.
It scared the hell out of me. The first reaction was that there was a ghost, and then a thought came to me, someone had entered the house.
The string in my heart tightened, and I quickly touched the head of the bed. I had put the dagger and the worm box on it, and I took both of them in my hand, and with such courage I leaned towards the bedroom door.
But as I walked in, the pale face suddenly receded and disappeared completely.
When I opened the door and looked out, the living room was quiet, and the bedroom door where the iron donkey and the old cat lived was closed. I thought, did the female ghost enter their room? How else can you explain it?
I went over and knocked on the door again, but as soon as I knocked on it, I heard a snoring inside, it was from an iron donkey.
I didn't knock anymore, and quickly twisted the handle to open the door. I thought they were both in bed, and they told me the same thing, and who knew that the old cat was lying on the wall above the door.
As soon as my door opened, he woke up and fell with a whoosh.
If it weren't for the fact that my heart was not bad, I would have been scared by him. Seeing that I couldn't stop panting after relieving my senses, he didn't care about me, but asked, "Big trouble, why did you come in?" ”
At this time, the iron donkey also woke up. I told them what I had just seen.
Both of them were a little unconvinced, and the old cat pointed to his ear and said with certainty that no one had come in the whole rental house, otherwise he would not have noticed it.
To verify this, we all came to my bedroom door and turned on the light.
Iron Donkey, an expert in mark identification, made a point of looking at the ground and was sure of it, "There are no suspicious shoe prints." ”
As a result, I was confused by myself, and my heart said, "Is there a hallucination?" But what I saw just now was so real, it didn't look like a fantasy.
We looked at the time, it was the middle of the night, we didn't rush to sleep, we went to see the soul together, it had been kept in the living room.
The current soul is brave, and there is no intention of changing color at all. We all felt that something was wrong.
I asked them, especially the iron donkey, if the old fairy had lied to us? Or is this soul brave fake?
They didn't answer, but Iron Donkey told me with an expression on his face that he thought I had a point.
What the iron donkey means, let's go to the old fairy's house now, wake him up and ask again. I estimate that this so-called awakening does not mean that the old fairy is asleep, but that he has been in a coma.
I nodded and said yes, and we went downstairs together. We still sat in the van and drove to the neighborhood with ease.
There was nothing wrong on the road, especially when we drove at night, there were very few vehicles on the road, and we were driving very fast, but when we entered the community and immediately came to the downstairs of the unit, we found that there were two police cars parked there.
The police lights were on, and there were police officers standing in front of the unit, where a cordon was pulled.
I'm also a police officer myself, and after seeing this situation, I guessed that there was a homicide here, otherwise there would never be so many police officers in the middle of the night.
I looked up along the door of the unit again, and only the lights of the old fairy's house were on. This clearly tells me that the old immortal is dead.
I thought to myself, it wouldn't be such a coincidence, would it? We came to him and he hung up? I looked at them again, that means, the death of the old fairy can't have anything to do with us, right?
The old cat's face was always composed, and he didn't say anything. The iron donkey muttered, saying that before leaving, he gave the old immortal a tranquilizer, and only let him sleep for one day, and it was impossible for him to die.
We continued to watch silently for a while, but a policeman with sharp eyes saw our van.
In the middle of the night, an out-of-town van pulled up, and there was a murder here, which was more or less suspicious. The policeman waved at us, telling us to get out of the car, and he wanted to question us.
We weren't afraid of being interrogated, but the problem was that the iron donkey had a pistol at his waist, and the old cat and I also had knives. This is going to be discovered by them, and it is easy to get into trouble if they can't explain it clearly.
We can't even turn to the organization for help, because this mission is a private one.
Watching the policeman get closer and closer, there was still some suspicion that he pulled out his gun. The iron donkey made a decision. As soon as he put in gear, the van sped backwards, flicked a corner, and then fled frantically.
The police realized that something was wrong and beckoned their colleagues to hurry up and chase after them.
At this moment, I had a sense of absurdity in my heart, and I said that this is not my own family fighting my own family?
As soon as we rushed out of the compound, a police car followed. The driver's driving skills are not bad, the speed is crazy, and he is getting closer and closer to us.
The old cat and I were anxious, but we didn't rush the iron donkey.
The iron donkey kept speeding up the van, and after running down a street, it seemed that we couldn't get rid of the police car, and we couldn't drag it any longer, otherwise after the police car called for support, other vehicles would rush over to intercept us.
The iron donkey looked around, there was an alley in front of him, he said that this was it, and drove the van into it.
This alley is very narrow, it can only be said that the van can barely get in, if the average driver, at such a fast speed, drill the alley, it is likely that the whole car will be scrapped here.
The iron donkey drove the van, and there were no big bumps after entering the alley, but the police car that followed was not good, and once the reversing mirror touched the walls on both sides.
I kept turning my head to look at it, and I have to say, it's miserable. Both of its mirrors were scratched off, and there were serious scratches on the body.
As a result, the police car had to slow down. Through this alley, we widened the distance again.
But this kind of alley is not easy to find, except for this one, there is nothing else. We're faced with the dilemma of where to flee next.
What I want is to run to the suburbs and send a letter to Yin Yin to see if she has any way, after all, she has been here for so long, and she has more or less connections.
But Iron Donkey thought the exact opposite of me. There was a small tree on the side of the road ahead, and between the trees were wild shrubs more than a man tall.
The iron donkey redirected and sent the van straight to one of the trees.
What's wrong with my heart? Brother Donkey is going to crash, isn't it? I was sweating in a hurry, and I told him to stop.
The iron donkey didn't listen, and when he was about to hit the tree, he twisted the steering wheel again, and we passed by the trunk and rushed straight inside.
In fact, the iron donkey also has an advantage in this way of driving, the car suddenly twisted its body at the moment of rushing in, as if it was a big hand, and pulled a piece of weeds away.
When we went in, the weeds bounced back, leaving the place still green and green, with no sense of being crushed by the van.
The iron donkey braked hurriedly, turning off the car. We waited silently.
I didn't know if this method was reliable, but it didn't take long for the police car to chase after me again, and its siren sounded, but the tone was wrong, and there was a dumb feeling, which was probably related to the bumps and bumps in the alley just now.
It didn't stop for a moment, swished past, and kept accelerating, the driver must still be wondering, why did this foreign van escape so fast?
When the siren sounded, my whole heart finally fell to the bottom, and my heart said that we were completely safe!
