Chapter 13: New Tasks
I had a bunch of weird dreams, and when I opened my eyes again, I found myself at home.
I looked at the white wall and was stunned for a while, and was stimulated by the numb and itchy back of my hand, I looked down and saw that there were pinholes on it, indicating that I had an infusion.
There was no one else in the room, and I was a little lonely, so I opened my throat and shouted.
Lu Yufeng was in the living room, he cared about me a lot, and hurriedly ran in, and he didn't bother to find a stool, so he squatted next to me and asked, "How is it?" ”
I nodded to indicate that there was nothing wrong, and then asked him, "Did I have some strange disease, why did I suddenly fall into a coma?" ”
Lu Yufeng said that a doctor has seen it, and there are residual scopolamine and phenobarbital in my body, which are all ingredients of psychedelics, indicating that I have recently been tricked, which is also the main reason for my coma.
I suddenly thought of the scene where the white-haired ghost strangled me, and my heart said that it was all an illusion? I was pulled around by his rope, as if I had been hypnotized, stimulating the creation of illusions?
It's just speculation, and there's no evidence yet, so I thought further and wondered how we got drugged.
I remember going to the matchmaker's house and opening a bedroom, there was a very strong smell blowing in it, and I thought there must be something in it. By the way, I'm also worried about Panzi. I asked, "Where's Panzi?" ”
Lu Yufeng smiled helplessly, saying that Panzi also fainted at the police station later, but before fainting, he went crazy for a while, climbed onto the table and danced a very revealing striptease.
I didn't experience that scene, but I could feel how awkward it was.
Lu Yufeng sighed soothingly, and said that we have both been dizzy for three days, and since I can wake up first, it means that it will be okay for me and Panzi to lose some medicine.
I was in a hurry for three days, I didn't expect to sleep for so long, I still didn't believe it, but the phone was next to the pillow, I took it out and looked at it, and my heart was shocked.
I was a little embarrassed and said to Lu Yufeng, "If we sleep like this, will the mission be delayed?" ”
Lu Yufeng said yes, but the spirit medium is not as cunning as the mandarin duck thief, and the police sent a local informant to follow it, as for the white-haired ghost I said, according to the clues I have now, this strange thing, whether it is a person or a ghost, must be a killing machine under the spirit medium, as long as the spirit medium is targeted, it will come out sooner or later.
I can only think about it, in fact, I am quite unwilling, this case has been followed to this extent, and when it is handed over to others, there is a feeling that there is nowhere to go.
I thought that when Panzi woke up, we would go back to Wuzhou, but Lu Yufeng told me that although we don't need to follow the spirit medium, there is another task for us to do.
I asked him what it was, and he said that the police had recently gotten news that another old man had said that his death was coming, and the police thought it was strange and wanted us to take over and protect it.
When I heard the word protection, I was stunned for a moment, and I said that I could just use an informant to dig up clues, so why did I use an informant as a bodyguard.
And I listened to Ah Feng's meaning, he agreed to this task, and I was embarrassed to refute anything, I also made another calculation in my heart, I wanted to use this task to drag it out in Longzhou again, and see how the spirit medium case was finally solved.
Pan Zi was also lying in his room, this man woke up three hours later than me, and when it was just afternoon, he opened his eyes, and the first thing he said was that he was hungry.
We ate something hastily, although Panzi and I slept for so long, resulting in a bit of physical weakness, but it did not delay our mission.
Lu Yufeng drove the motorcycle and took the two of us to the old man's house.
At first, I didn't understand, and I said that we couldn't drive cars, so why should we ride motorcycles, but when I looked at the place, I understood.
The old man lived in a slum. In fact, there is no designated name for the slum in China, the reason why I call it so is because it is so broken, look at it, the ground is full of broken bricks and tiles, many buildings are incomplete glass, and even see a sloping building, I suspect that Pan Zi and I take two bricks to this building, it can collapse.
We saw the old man, he lived in a dilapidated building in this environment, he lived on the third floor, Lu Yufeng took us upstairs and told us a few words, saying that this piece was supposed to be renovated, and finally it went wrong and became a three-regardless zone, and those who had a little money moved out to live, leaving some poor and deaf people, living in a snail's life.
After listening to it, I had a question, I don't know why he deliberately emphasized the deaf, is there any advantage to the deaf living here?
But before I could ask, we arrived at the place, Ah Feng knocked on the door, and not long after the old man opened the door.
The first time I saw this old man, I immediately had an evaluation that he was a martial artist. has a pair of sword eyebrows, not angry and self-assured, don't look at your age, but you have to take off your clothes, and you can still have hard bumps up and down.
We were tasked with protecting him, and he must have received the news, and I thought he would be happy to see us, but instead he lost his temper, snorted, and let us in.
I don't know why, just like Pan Zi, they all looked at Lu Yufeng.
Lu Yufeng was very polite, called the old man uncle, and asked if there was anything strange recently.
This old man was the only one in the house, and he was eating in the living room, but he didn't eat at this time, and while cleaning up the food, he said to us, "Young man, your police nose is really smart, so I casually recited to my friend that I had a 'disaster' recently, and you came over." I'm not an unreasonable person, since the police think I'm in danger and need protection, then you will do your duty as a policeman, and this living room will now belong to you, but I won't eat or drink, and don't go into the house to disturb my life. ”
I found that this old man was quite stubborn, and dared to say such a thing as a policeman, and he went to the house to eat with his food in his hand, which really did not mean to entertain us at all.
Lu Yufeng was not surprised, he happily beckoned us to come to the hall, first helped the old man clean the hall, and then sat down together.
There were two examples of the death of old men before, so I think that this old man has an inseparable relationship with the spirit medium and the two old people, especially since he is still a martial artist, could it be that he has also been a robber before and has done illegal things to provoke the spirit medium? But now the old man doesn't cooperate with us at all, so I can't ask about that.
I had to talk to Ah Feng and Pan Zi about something else.
We sat until dark, Lu Yufeng's meaning, and at night, we slept on the sofa and chairs. I can bear it when I sleep, but I can't bear it when I eat.
Although the old man has a stove and some vegetables at home, we are embarrassed to use them.
So I told them to sit down and I went out to buy something to eat.
Lu Yufeng nodded and handed me the key to the motorcycle.
I don't have Ah Feng's skills in driving a motorcycle, but I am no worse than ordinary people, so I ride it to find a restaurant everywhere.
But how can there be a restaurant in this slum, I looked around and finally gave up, there happened to be a small shop on the edge of an alley, I thought, let's eat bread and milk tonight.
There are not many types of "Western food" in this store, I picked for a long time, and I can only make do with it, and I am afraid that Pan Zi's lack of virtue beast will not be full, so I brought him a double portion, carrying a big bag.
When I came out, I was about to light the motorcycle when I suddenly noticed a piece of paper on the ground.
This piece of paper is actually not very big, at best the size of half a business card, but the head of the Jade Emperor printed on it is too obvious, and I suddenly became sensitive, this is a small half of the dark coin.
I don't believe it was blown by the wind by accident, but I can't figure it out that a psychic medium or a white-haired ghost came here and put the dark coins here.
I'd love to take a look around, but I don't have the guts, that white-haired ghost is so powerful, if I really want to encounter it, I can't fight it at all.
I hurriedly rode a motorcycle, and said in my heart that when I returned home, Lu Yufeng and Pan Zi were there, and the white-haired ghost would come over again, and a few of us would be better off together.
I rode the bike very fast, especially when it was a bumpy road, and I once let a bag of milk fall out of my pocket, and I didn't even bother to pick it up.
When I turned a corner and the old man's building appeared in front of me, my heart fell a little, but before I could completely ease up, I saw two points of light, one yellow and one green, appeared in front of the window of the old man's house.
These two points of light flew so fast that they disappeared in the blink of an eye. I believed that it was not an illusion, and I wondered what this soul-like thing was.
