Chapter 3: Raids in the Dead of Night
Ren Qiuling, who was half-asleep and half-awake, suddenly felt scared, she found that there was one more person in the room, and it was a strange man.
Instinctively, she reached under the pillow, where her pistol was pressed. The tips of her fingers touched the cold body of the spear, and her wrist suddenly tightened, and a large hand grabbed her wrist and slammed it back. Ren Qiuling was in pain, so she could only turn around and lie on the quilt, her right hand being twisted behind her back.
Ren Qiuling grabbed under the pillow with her left hand, and it took several strokes to catch the pistol. Then a man whispered in her ear, "Don't move, don't scream." Otherwise......" Ren Qiuling smashed the pistol into the man's head with a brick, and with a "snap", the man reached out and grabbed her left hand and snatched the gun away. Immediately after, the man pressed Ren Qiuling's back with one knee, stopping the attack on her leg.
The curtains fluttered lightly in the wind, and the street lights outside the window shone in and shone on Ren Qiuling's smooth shoulders, which was the scene that led people to commit crime - her dressing gown was relatively loose, and it was no longer possible to block the spring light at this time. Ren Qiuling's tears flowed down, half because of shame, and half because her hands were really painful.
When the man saw her tears, he let go of his hands, took several steps back, stumbled down on the sofa, and said sadly, "I really don't want to hurt you, really...... But I suddenly became stupid, very stupid. The tone of his voice seemed to be that he had known Ren Qiuling for a long time.
Ren Qiuling turned on the bedside lamp and shouted: "It's you!" β
The man sitting on the sofa covered his eyes with his hands as if he was afraid of the light, and his long hair hung down on the coffee table like a waterfall - the strange man who couldn't hit a car or drown in a river. I don't know why I found it here.
Ren Qiuling stared at her pistolβnow hanging on the thumb of the man's left hand. "He has a problem with his brain," Ren Qiuling thought, "I don't want to stimulate him." She pulled her nightgown hard to cover her shoulders and other parts, and said softly, "You came to me, is there anything wrong?" β
The man looked up in pain and said, "Tell me what this is-" He pointed to the television, "What is this-" and then to the sofa, "What is this-" He raised his thumb with his pistol hung. "Also, tell me, what dynasty is it now? Who is the Son of Heaven in the current dynasty? He desperately suppressed his tone to keep himself from shouting.
Ren Qiuling was a little excited to see this guy, for fear that he would really go crazy, and said softly: "Don't think about this, hurry up and return that black piece of iron to me, good-" The other party was obviously confused, Ren Qiuling didn't want to tell him that it was a pistol, for fear that he would think of something. As long as the gun is back in her hands, then the initiative will of course go back to hers.
"Ahh I'm not an idiot. β
Ren Qiuling was stunned for a moment, completely unable to keep up with the long-haired man's train of thought - it is indeed difficult for normal people to keep up with the train of a madman.
The man held the pistol in his hand, the tip of the gun was facing his chin, he stared at Ren Qiuling's eyes, his gaze gradually became cold, "I'm hungry, you go get me food, hurry up!" He commanded.
Ren Qiuling jumped up angrily, thinking: "If I rush over like this, maybe he will shoot himself in the head...... but she thought again: "This person actually didn't hurt me, maybe what I said just now stimulated him - in the end, he is also a life." If his head blooms in front of me, I will probably feel guilty for the rest of my life. β
After thinking about it again and again, I finally sighed and ran to the bedside table to make two bowls of instant noodles. Even with his back to the long-haired man, Ren Qiuling could feel that the guy's gaze had never left her.
"What's your name?" Ren Qiuling asked.
The man said, "My name is still Zou Yan." β
"Where are you from?"
"I'm from the ground."
It took a little time to make instant noodles, and Ren Qiuling chatted with the man in a homely tone. Now that the gun is in the other party's hand, Ren Qiuling wants to fight for a little more chance to live, so she must make the other party feel that she is a human - this truth is very simple, but many people don't understand it. When it comes to enemies like serial killers and neuropaths, they can't tell the difference between a person and a toy. But this is crucial for the hostage: if the other person treats you like a toy, you will die a terrible death; The other party treats you as a human being, then you still have a chance to live.
So although Zou Yan's words were a little incomprehensible, Ren Qiuling still pretended to be very interested in chatting with him. "How old are you?"
Zou Yan thought for a while: "I don't know, but when I buried it in the soil, it seems that General Yue has just been recalled to Kyoto by the Twelve Gold Medals - what happened to General Yue?" β
Ren Qiuling thought of the twelve gold medal recalls, it must have been Yue Fei. Yue Fei's tragic death in the Fengbo Pavilion such a thing may have a negative impact on this man, and it must not be said.
"Haha, just right." Ren Qiuling pretended to be relaxed, and at the same time turned around with instant noodles in her hand - the muzzle of the black hole was facing her, and Zou Yan held the pistol in her left hand and aimed it at her heart.
"Don't panic, don't panic." Ren Qiuling thought to herself, "Maybe he doesn't know how to use a gun, but the shape of the pistol is just the most comfortable to hold." She held a bowl of instant noodles in one hand and walked towards the man tremblingly.
Zou Yan's gaze followed her, and the pistol also turned to her with his gaze.
Ren Qiuling circled around the coffee table, and Zou Yan still pointed a gun at her, "What's wrong with you?" β
"Give it to me!" Ren Qiuling said solemnly.
Zou Yan looked at Ren Qiuling suspiciously, and Ren Qiuling looked at him without giving in. Although her hands were shaking so badly that the two bowls of instant noodles might fall off at any time, she still persevered.
In the end, Zou Yan took the initiative to avoid her gaze and handed the pistol to Ren Qiuling.
Ren Qiuling slowly put down the instant noodles, and then carefully took the pistol, as soon as the gun arrived, Ren Qiuling was almost paralyzed - the gun did not open the safety bolt, Zou Yan really didn't know how to use the gun. "Sure enough, I still use more brains and less guns." Ren Qiuling thought as she pushed a bowl of instant noodles in front of Zou Yan with the tip of her gun.
"What is this?" Zou Yan asked.
Ren Qiuling didn't speak, she quietly pulled the safety bolt of the gun, and then opened the instant noodles and ate them - the reason why she made two bowls of instant noodles was because sharing food together in all cultures is a sign of friendship. Ren Qiuling originally had the intention of eating instant noodles with this abnormal Zou Yan, at that time it was to save her life, but now it is because she really feels that she is hungry.
Zou Yan didn't ask again, but followed Ren Qiuling's example and ate instant noodles - his noodle eating voice was "snoring", very loud.
Ren Qiuling can judge that this Zou Yan's mental illness belongs to the category of paranoia, maybe he fantasizes that he is a famous person in history, so he can say such strange things. The other party has mental problems, and he doesn't really want to hurt himself, so Ren Qiuling doesn't plan to take advantage of the other party's noodles to eat noodles and give that hairy head a shot.
Hearing that Zou Yan's voice of eating noodles stopped, Ren Qiuling raised her head, wiped the oil on her mouth and said, "It's still a little inconvenient for men and women to be in the same room. Or ...... "Since the other party is delusional that he is a celebrity in the Song Dynasty, the men and women of the Song Dynasty are extremely strict, which is just used as an excuse to send off guests." What "men and women don't kiss each other", "sister-in-law and uncle can't help each other" These strange things all arose in the Song Dynasty.
Zou Yan was anxious and said, "You have to help me!" This dynasty is so strange, there are so many things that I don't recognize. You've got to teach me. β
Ren Qiuling got up and said, "You come, I'll find you a good teacher." He politely made a "please" gesture.
Zou Yan really didn't fight anymore, got up and followed behind Ren Qiuling honestly.
When she came to the door, Ren Qiuling was stunned again - the latch on the door was not broken, and the lock was not opened, so how did this Zou Yan get in? The only possibility is the window, but I live on the third floor!
However, Ren Qiuling thought that some madmen would have particularly good physical strength, and people who were usually weak and couldn't help the wind would be as strong as an ox immediately when they got sick, so she was relieved.
I opened the door and led Zou Yan to try the locks on the third floor one by one - of course I didn't try to live in the room where Lee Myung-bak lived.
After a while, I found a room that happened to be unlocked. After taking Zou Yan in, Ren Qiuling turned on the TV, tuned to the children's channel, pointed to the TV and said, "This is your teacher, it will teach you a lot of things." "Teletubbies are really good teachers β for four or five-year-olds.
Zou Yan's eyes flashed with the light of TV, and his eyes were full of fascination.
Ren Qiuling smiled and closed the door after leaving the room.
Maybe it would be best to kick the madman out of the hotel, but then a man would break into his room in the middle of the night and make the world know about itβnot a good thing for a girl. And this Zou Yan doesn't seem to be a bad person, so he shouldn't harm himself.
After returning to her room, Ren Qiuling heard the bell sound of "Ding Ding" in the distance, the sound was crisp and pleasant, and there was a familiar feeling, as if she had heard it in front of the temple in the early morning...... Ren Qiuling couldn't remember, because she fell asleep quickly.
She was awakened by a knock on the door, and when she opened the door, she saw that it was Lee Myung-bak standing in front of the door, "Inspector Witch, let's start today's action!" Lee Myung-bak saluted.
Ren Qiuling was happy and said: "I will visit today to see if I can find any clues?" β
There is very little evidence in Niu Chaoshu's case, and there are many doubts. It is necessary to visit the nearby villagers to see if they can find anything new.
The time of the crime was dusk, and usually at this time the people in the mountains went home for dinner. If Ren Qiuling's inference is not problematic, then the murderer is likely to be from Straw Hat Village.
