Chapter 4: Singing in the middle of the night
After dark, Panzi and I got off the train and walked out of the train station.
There are two things I need to do now, one is to contact the police to talk about the missing person case, and the other is to contact a special informant to familiarize myself with the environment in Tatsu.
I weighed it and decided to find that special informant first, after all, we belong to the same category of people, and the relationship can be better.
I took out my mobile phone to find his number, Lu Yufeng said that his name is Wu Hao, but what is the specific code name, I didn't go into details, I just called him Brother Hao for a while.
I dialed the number, but it took more than ten rings for him to answer, and he deliberately suppressed his voice and asked me, "Which one?" ”
My first reaction was that he was doing a task, and I didn't want to be sensitive because of one of my phone calls, so I briefly introduced myself and told him, "When it's convenient, let's call again to make an appointment." ”
I thought I was okay with saying this, but Wu Hao told me that it was okay to come to him now, and gave me an address.
This address is a certain street number, I wrote it down by heart, but I don't know what type it belongs to, is it a residential or commercial office building?
I figured it out, Wu Hao might want me and Panzi to help, for the sake of being friends, I hurriedly took Panzi to that address.
The two of us were not familiar with Tian Jin's life, so in order to grab time, we took a taxi directly.
I was worried that the driver was not familiar with the address, but when I said the address, the driver reacted strangely, his face turned a little white, and he turned his head to look at us as if he was a nervous disorder.
I was bewildered by him, and I couldn't say anything, so I could only urge him to hurry up.
And when I arrived at the place, looking at a grave on the hill in the distance, I realized that it was no wonder that the driver's expression was strange, and Wu Hao called us to the cemetery in Tianjin City.
At this time, I was also confused, and my heart said what kind of task can there be in the cemetery? Do you catch the thief who digs the grave?
The driver took the money, didn't stay at all, stepped on the accelerator and ran away, and Pan Zi and I didn't have any questions now. We walked a little bit closer.
During this period, I noticed that there was a bright light on the tomb mountain, I guess it was Wu Hao, could it be that he was still worshipping the tomb in the dark?
Panzi and I couldn't have been frightened by the grave, so we went up the hill again. But someone stopped us halfway, a fat man who was five big and three thick, and a little stupid.
I know that this is a grave keeper, and more seriously, the one who can come to guard the grave is either a poor old man or a stupid head, otherwise who would be a normal person to do this work?
The fat man wouldn't let us in, saying the cemetery was closed. In fact, he is a kind of prevarication.
I don't want to reason with this kind of brainless person, just when I got out of the car, Panzi bought a pack of cigarettes, and he hadn't opened it yet. I winked at Pan Zi, which meant that he quickly took out the cigarette.
Pan Zi also understood, took out a whole pack of cigarettes and gave them away, and said a few soft words, and the fat man turned a blind eye.
We went up again, and when we got closer, I saw clearly that there was a grave with a large candle lit and full of food, and a man sitting in front of the grave, drinking and muttering.
I couldn't hear what he said, but looking at this posture, Panzi and I didn't dare to disturb. The two of us found a spacious place, stood and waited for him, and there was no one else around, I am sure that he was Wu Hao.
After half an hour like this, when Pan Zi and I were full of cigarette butts, Wu Hao packed up his things, in fact, he had already noticed the two of us. He packed his things and carried them on his back, and turned around and walked straight towards us.
During this period, I took a look at his appearance, how to say, this person has one of the biggest characteristics, that is, he has no characteristics at all.
He looks ordinary and can't be ordinary, and he is thrown in the pile, and no one recognizes him.
This is unattainable for informants. After all, people like us want to save their lives, and the more ordinary they are, the safer they are. Panzi and I are slightly inferior to him, I am too white, Panzi is too dark.
Wu Hao came over and shook hands with the two of us, and we introduced each other.
The moment I shook hands, I chuckled in my heart, because Wu Hao's hands had too many calluses, which showed that this person was by no means ordinary.
I've heard people say that by the distribution of calluses in the hands, one can distinguish a person's occupation, touching a knife and a gun, or touching a shovel and a big spoon. But I haven't studied this aspect at all, and I can't go into it at all.
We went down the mountain together, and I took the time to talk to Wu Hao about the mission that Pan Zi and I came this time, and let him, a local informant, express his views.
In my heart, based on my first impression alone, I put him and Lu Yufeng on the same level, I thought he could say something substantial.
Who knew that Wu Hao smiled and said to me, "Brother, the missing person case is not a matter for us at all, and there are missing persons in every city every day, and those who run away from their families in anger, and they can't be contacted temporarily when their mobile phones are turned off, etc., you two don't take this mission too seriously, just investigate for a few days and find some clues to hand over the work." ”
I said in my heart that it's very interesting, why does Wu Hao have this attitude? If he usually does tasks with a big grin, how can this special informant become a special informant? But I don't want to say anything deeply, so it's perfunctory to him.
Wu Hao remembered another thing and emphasized to the two of us, "The Tianjin police are very picky, and the accommodation provided to the informant is a place with a bad corner, and there is no food to eat or drink around, so you two can find a hotel to live in the city this time, so that you can live more comfortably." ”
When I came out, he had something to say, and he was good to the two of us on the face, but he actually wanted us to go through the motions for this mission.
He expressed this opinion twice, and I had a vague feeling that something was wrong that I couldn't say.
When he went down the mountain, the fat man who was guarding the grave appeared again, he was holding a small cigarette given by Pan Zi, and he was sucking it.
He didn't say anything, and watched us leave, but he kept showing a posture that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and with the current environment, I looked hairy.
There was no taxi here, Wu Hao drove an electric car, and Pan Zi and I had to squeeze into the electric car with Wu Hao in order to get back to the city quickly.
Wu Hao was very polite, not only sent us back, but also found a hotel to stop at the door, saying that this hotel is discounted, and we can stay here.
I didn't think much about it, I paid a deposit with Panzi and found a room to live in.
Wu Hao had eaten at the cemetery before, and he didn't stay, waving goodbye to the two of us.
Panzi and I ordered fast food directly at the hotel and ate it in the room. I can't be like Wu Hao said, and treat the task negatively. During the meal, I called the police again and asked about the case.
The police were pragmatic, and regardless of whether it was time to get off work or not, they immediately sent the information of the missing person on their mobile phones.
Panzi and I ate while looking through it together.
There are two missing people, both men, and they are both workers in a food processing factory, and they have a good private relationship, they love to get together and drink a little wine, they have no other bad habits, they are both married, and they are quite happy to live according to their neighbors.
Pan Zi and I discussed the matter, and the two workers had formal jobs and no problem with their marriage, which ruled out the possibility of them going out to work and running away from home.
We thought to ourselves, would they be kidnapped? Or killed? But kidnapping is such a thing, the kidnappers either want money or sex, these two little workers have no money and are both old men, and they don't have these two things.
Pan Zi and I are more and more analysed, the more headaches we have, we always feel that the missing person should not happen to them, and according to the current investigation, the last place where they appeared was in a small restaurant, they didn't drink less, and after checking out and leaving, they never showed up again.
Panzi and I have a plan, starting from this hotel tomorrow, and the investigation will be carried out along the vine, I guess these two boys may have drunk and made trouble and were cleaned up by others.
Then we were fine, and we sat in the car for a day, and went to bed early.
My phone rang in the middle of the night. And I put the phone next to the pillow and turned it vibrating, but it didn't wake up Panzi.
I picked it up and saw that it was an unfamiliar number, and I was puzzled, but I still connected the phone.
I didn't rush to speak, the other party was very strange, and suddenly booed a few times.
My first reaction was to make a malicious harassing call, otherwise who would be so perverted and call people up in the middle of the night to boo?
I yelled and hung up my phone. But in less than a minute, the phone rang again, and it was still this number.
I was on fire in my heart, and I made up my mind, answered the phone, and scolded the other party well, why is it so shameless? But this time, the other party booed twice and started singing again.
The song is strange, it looks like a mass. I was stunned for a moment, but when I got back to my senses, I sat up with a puff.
I remembered the lone wolf's package, and there was a picture of a religious ritual in it, could this mass be related to this picture?
I just did this, and I also woke up Panzi, and he looked at me sleepily and asked what's wrong?
I gestured to him and asked him to come and listen, but to his annoyance, when Pan Zi came over, the phone was hung up.
Pan Zi didn't hear anything, and stared at me with a puzzled expression. I put aside what had just happened and asked Panzi what he thought.
I found that this beast of lack of virtue is sometimes smart and sometimes stupid, he doesn't care at all, and says to me, "Xiaobai, this is obviously fraudulent software, he arouses your curiosity, and when you call back, your phone bill will be deducted in a hurry, you can't be fooled." ”
I didn't listen to him, and I said that even if it is a fraudulent software, this kind of music should not be played, right? I stubbornly put the call back on the air.
This time the phone rang and it was connected, and the mass sounded in the receiver again.
I listened carefully, but Panzi was very casual, glancing at me.
After the other party played the music and hung up automatically, I asked Panzi again. As soon as the beast waved his hand and said that I would check the phone bill tomorrow, he threw himself on the bed and fell asleep.
