Chapter 41: Encountering Demons at Night
The moon climbed up the treetops, and I sat on my bed in the hotel, hugging my backpack.
Everything was there, and there was an extra sealed bag with a wad of pink cash inside.
I took it out and counted it, two thousand yuan, and I didn't understand who gave it to me.
There is only one hotel in this town, and on the second floor of a restaurant, there are seven or eight rooms. If you hadn't asked the locals, the houses around would have been inconspicuous.
Heavy rain missed two trips, and there were exceptionally many guests today. When I came, the boss led me into a standard room on the second floor, asked me for a deposit of 50 yuan, and hurried to play mahjong. There were two beds in the room, and the one by the door had bags of snacks, which were already occupied, but they hadn't come back yet.
My phone got into the water, and in the afternoon I put it next to the pumpkin seeds on the windowsill and dried it together. This Nokia leather is solid, plug it into the charger when it's dark, and it actually turns on.
As soon as the phone was turned on, the text messages jumped out one after another.
Mr. Fu sent me a message telling me that the remuneration had been paid to me and asked me to check it. Immediately followed by the arrival reminder from the bank: your account with the tail number **** will receive an income of 5000.00 yuan from online banking......
"Oops." I let out a sigh of relief, and I was finally not busy in vain.
Although I didn't see the money, my heart was instantly steady. I was a little scared just now, but now I am not afraid of money. With cash, I have 10,000 yuan less, how can I go back to Beijing?
Flipping through the greeting message of the communication company, the first one was sent by the big boss. The time shows 11:32 on August 25, 2010. He asked me how I was going.
At that time, I was still in the old house, and I texted him back to tell him that I had found a corpse, thirteen urns of ashes, and four boxes of gold bars, and that I had told him about the payment.
He quickly replied with a message: Sheng's movements?
After I came out of the old house, there was no car outside, I guess I was gone. But I didn't really see it, and it's hard to say. After thinking about it, I replied: I don't know where to go.
"Follow!"
With whom? Miss Sheng? I didn't even know where she was, and the word stumped me all at once.
Just as she couldn't figure it out, Niangniang Kaien called back.
"Where are you?"
"I ...... Shanza Town. Afraid that he would blame me for running around, he quickly explained: "The car I was sitting in broke down in the middle of the road, so I can only stay here for one night and go back early tomorrow morning." However, the matter of Jiangwan is over, and the Shen family has caught something valuable, but when there is a flood, everyone withdraws......"
He didn't speak, and I thought he was finally getting a little patient with me. I didn't want his voice to breathe heavily, and I couldn't wait for me to finish speaking, and he said quickly: "Don't go around, Ming'er will wait for me to pick you up." "Just hung up the phone.
What's the bad thing? This is a hot blank!
It rained, and it fell on the canopy of the restaurant on the first floor like a drum, making the room even quieter. The TV had no signal, so I was bored and grabbed the pumpkin seeds on the windowsill and counted the lights that were still on outside the window.
I slept heavily, and my nerves, which may have been tossed recently, have not been very good, and I haven't slept much all the time. In the middle of the night, I heard a "chirp", and it was another sound five minutes later, and I don't know what it was that made me annoyed.
After a moment of confusion, he suddenly shouted: "Oops, Mom! Ghosts! ”
"The ghosts are all noisy." I yawned, rolled over and looked around, and suddenly found the TV on.
I remember turning it off before going to bed, but when I looked sideways, there was a dark shadow on the bed opposite, and it turned out to be a guest from my roommate. He slept dishonestly, and most of the quilt was hanging at the foot of the bed. I was just about to go to the bathroom, so I picked it up and threw it on his lap.
Toilets are shared, just one in total, at the end of the hallway. It was a bit far from my room, and I had just finished flushing when there was a knock on the door.
It seems to be in a hurry, but the door is a little misplaced due to moisture, and the bolt is not easy to pull.
"Wait a minute." I'm afraid of being urged, and the more I urge, the lower the efficiency. I finally managed to get it open, and I saw the hotel owner standing in front of me with something murderous.
"How...... Yes? ”
Before I could react, the guy stared at me and threw something on my head.
Although it was smashed squarely, it didn't hurt. The thing fell to the ground without a sound, and when I looked down, it was actually a fly swatter.
He picked up a fly swatter from the ground with a short body, and held it across his chest like a knife. The fly swatter shuddered up and down, and one of his eyes rolled straight up. I couldn't laugh bitterly, what kind of nerve is this?
Seeing that I was not responding, he turned around and went to slam on the door closest to him.
The people inside didn't know the situation, and like me, they were confused and suffered for a while. It is estimated that the blow is heavy, and the people inside shouted. The boss got his hands on it even harder, so he listened to the "crackling" sound, and the guests were beaten and swearing, and the boss shouted "There is a ghost, I will kill you, kill you!" ”。
The lights in this row of rooms were lit up one after another, and many guests came out to watch the excitement. I also leaned in and huddled in the doorway with them to look inside. The boss just got the first opportunity, and after the guest reacted, he started a fight with him with his fist.
The boss is strong, and the guest is a fat man, both of whom are wearing only shorts, and they look like a pair of Japanese sumo wrestlers at first glance.
Some residents wanted to go to the rack, and the boss even brought others to fight together. The head of the fly swatter was gone, and all that was left was a small stick. Everyone saw that this person was crazy, and the few in front of him approached cautiously, pulled a quilt and slowly surrounded him, trying to seize an opportunity to hold him down.
The room is small, and I can't get in when I stand by the door. I saw that there was another woman in the house, wrapped in a sheet and curled up under the curtains, and she was so frightened that she cried.
There was a tall, thin man who went in with him, and the reason why he noticed him was because he had shaved his bald head. His facial features are very deep, and at first glance, he thinks he is a foreigner with a scruffy beard.
I don't know when he entered, but he was the most obvious of all, standing calmly in front of the curtain and observing the battle. He faced the rolling crowd of people, and didn't mean to help, only to push them away when he saw someone approaching.
Five or six men in the room reluctantly pressed the boss to the bed, and the strange screams of "wow-wow" in his mouth, even screaming and scolding, were particularly ugly. It wasn't until someone punched him that he was honest.
"The one at the door, you come here." The foreign devil beckoned to me: "You come, stand here with me." ”
He walked to the side of the bed and asked others to turn the boss over, raised his left hand and blew into the palm of his hand, and gave the boss a slap in the face. I subconsciously covered my face when I heard this voice, and the boss's body suddenly softened and began to cry.
The foreign devil sent the guests who came to help, and the man who originally lived in the room came over and hugged the woman to comfort him.
I walked over to take a look, and the boss's eyes were still rolling, causing tears to flow in all directions.
"Do you still want to hit someone?" The foreign devil asked him.
The boss was crying until he choked, and his voice was intermittent.
"Think...... I don't want to...... Hand Enchanted...... Finish. ”
