Chapter 23: The Mist
"You think that so no one else knows?" Lei Baoquan sat in the front seat and said.
"What do you mean?" Li Bai was puzzled.
Jin Guo understood what Lei Baoquan meant, and explained, "Who are those people you met just now? ”
"Who?" Li Bai still didn't understand.
"O housewife!" Jin Guo said, "Is there anything else that housewives don't spread out? As long as they knew, the whole building would know. ”
Lei Baoquan nodded and said, "For example, Sister Wang." ”
"Oh! You say Sister Wang, I understand! Li Bai felt that this example was too vivid and appropriate.
At night, Lei Baoquan and the three of them dragged their tired bodies out of the police station, and they all sat in the interrogation room all afternoon, facing Xie Tao, who vigorously denied it.
"Grab a bite to eat, shall you? I didn't eat at noon and starved to death. Li Bai said.
The three of them drove to a barbecue restaurant, ordered some barbecue, and sat by the window. At this time, because the weather is good and bad, there are not many people who come out to shop, and there are only a few customers scattered in the store.
"I don't think this kid is a murderer." After Jin Guo sat down, he said first.
"You can see that?" Li Bai didn't believe it.
"He's a smart guy." Lei Baoquan said silently, "But I'm not sure if he's a murderer now." ”
"Anyway, he is suspicious, and it is advantageous to arrest him and investigate it, and, I heard Brother Duo say that they have investigated, and he is the only one in the whole building who has a cat, do you think there will be anyone else?" Li Bai said.
"If you have a cat, you don't have to be him. Maybe it's someone from outside. "Jin Guo feels that there are many possibilities.
"Huh? You're on the point. Uncle Lei said categorically last time that the murderer must be someone nearby, and it can't be a stranger from outside. Li Bai said with a smile.
Lei Baoquan gave him a blank look and said, "When did I say this?" ”
"Look, if you don't admit it, Uncle Lei, you're not good at this, you should admit it if you make a mistake, and it won't be good." Li Bai said proudly.
At this time, the waiter brought up a plate of barbecue. Lei Baoquan was just embarrassed, pushed the barbecue in front of Li Bai, and said, "Eat your food, you can't stop your mouth if you starve to death." ”
The three of them laughed. Chat and eat at the same time.
The night was deeper, and the entire Yungang City was foggy, mixed with cold winds, which made people reluctant to stay outside for a while.
After eating, it was already ten o'clock in the evening. The three of them got into the car and prepared to go home.
"After such a while, the fog has become so big?" Jin Guo looked out the window, the fog that was still thin just now had now spread, almost two meters away, and he couldn't see anything clearly.
"Uncle Lei, drive slowly, safety first." Li Bai reminded.
Lei Baoquan smiled in surprise and said, "Ouch, it's the first time I've heard you say such a useful word. ”
"Uncle Lei. You're sarcastic about me again. Li Bai said with a smile.
Lei Baoquan drove the car slowly and leisurely, and Li Bai ignored the wind outside the window, pressed the lathe, and enjoyed this rare "night view".
"Shall we sing a song?" Jin Guo said as he sat in the back seat.
"Come on, the three of us will sing in the same tune, and when the time comes, we will break the gong and call the traffic police again, thinking that we are drunk driving." Lei Baoquan thought it through.
At this time, Li Bai saw a red light flashing in the dense fog not far away, and hurriedly said, "Pay attention." There's something ahead. ”
Lei Baoquan hurriedly concentrated on looking ahead, and sure enough, the car approached and saw a warning sign on the road, which indicated that there was an accident in front of the car.
Lei Baoquan slowly drove the car forward for more than ten meters. I saw a taxi parked on the side of the road with double flashing lights. There is a dense fog in the sky, and there are very few cars on the street, especially when this section of the road is far away from the city, so there are few cars at this time. It is very strange that such a taxi is parked on the side of the road.
"Let's go down and have a look. Maybe you need help? Jin Guo said.
Lei Baoquan nodded and parked the car in front of the taxi.
The three of them got out of the car and walked to the side of the taxi, but what they never expected was that there was no one in the taxi, and there was no one around, as if a car was parked here alone.
"What about people?" Li Bai took a closer look in the car, but there was no one.
"Did you go to the side to find someone?" Jin Guo said.
Lei Baoquan looked around, although he couldn't see anything clearly, but he roughly knew which section of the road this was, and said: "There is a hill next to this, there is no one around, there is a gas station over there, but it is also very far away, and it takes more than 20 minutes to walk." ”
"That's probably where to go." Jin Guo said.
Li Bai only felt that the cold wind was blowing around him, he didn't wear much today, he was shivering from the cold, and said, "I think let's go first, people estimate that they will bring people with them in a while, and they don't need us." ”
Lei Baoquan thought about it, and he didn't know how long he would have to wait, so he beckoned the two of them to get into the car.
The three of them continued to drive forward, and after driving for a while, Lei Baoquan suddenly "huh", as if he was wondering something.
"How?" Li Bai asked.
"I remember there's a gas station here, why didn't I see it?" Lei Baoquan's car drove slowly, observing left and right.
"Probably didn't arrive, did you?" Jin Guo looked out the window and said.
"No, it usually arrives in a minute, but today's slow drive is slow, but it's not like you haven't seen it for five or six minutes?" Lei Baoquan was puzzled.
"Maybe the fog was too big, and I walked by without seeing it." Li Bai didn't think there was anything strange.
"Impossible, no matter how big the fog is, the gas station is so big, the three of us can't see it?" Lei Baoquan shook his head.
As he was talking, the car that had just raised a little speed was slowed down by Lei Baoquan again.
"What's wrong?" Li Bai asked impatiently.
"Something happened again?" Lei Baoquan pointed ahead, and the two looked forward, and another warning sign was placed not far away.
"It's not surprising that something is going on in this fog." Jin Guo said.
Their car drove a little further, the three of them were stunned, and a taxi was parked on the side of the road.
"What's wrong with this driver today? Rushing home without looking at the road? Li Bai said.
Lei Baoquan parked the car aside, and the three of them got out of the car to inspect it, but they were surprised.
The car is empty again!
"This" Jin Guo was speechless for a while.
"Uncle Lei, are you lost? Drove back again? Li Bai asked.
"No, I drove along the road, didn't you see it too?" Lei Baoquan was also stunned.
Jin Guo suddenly realized something, and said, "I think we should feel like we should leave this place." ”
As soon as he said this, the other two also glanced at each other, and seemed to understand what was going on, and the three of them hurriedly got into the car, and Lei Baoquan didn't stop, just started the car and left.
The three of them sat in the car in shock, and Li Bai also rolled up the window, lying on the seat and not knowing what to say. Lei Baoquan was silent for a while, and just wanted to say something, but saw a red reflection not far ahead. (To be continued.) )
