Chapter 23: The Woman in Red

Zhang Qianqian and I were stuffed out of the bathroom window by a trendy man!

At that time, when he was in a hurry to push us away, the footsteps outside were almost to the door, he simply pushed us directly into the bathroom, watched me and Zhang Qianqian jump out of the window, and then closed the window without hesitation!

His nervous appearance made us secretly wonder how vicious his friend really was, and what made him afraid to be like this!

But he helped us after all, and we can't make trouble for him, fortunately his room is on the first floor, otherwise Zhang Qianqian and I wouldn't have fallen to death!

After Zhang Qianqian and I left, we immediately set off to Nanjie, this kind of thing happened in the village, we didn't want to delay for a minute, we couldn't wait to find Jin Dianlong immediately, and asked him if he could save our village!

It's just that when I left the house, I always felt that something was wrong, but I thought about it again and again, but I never thought of anything wrong, so I had to give up and inquire with Zhang Qianqian all the way to South Street.

This county seat is about fifty miles away from our village, belonging to Hebei Province, although we belong to two different provinces, but because they are close to each other, the language is not too far apart, and even several neighboring villages come and go when they form a family of children.

After arriving at South Street, we were worried, this South Street is a small commodity wholesale street in this county, full of people coming and going, bustling, the trendy man only gave us such a message about this street, nothing else, if you want to inquire about a person like this, it is simply a needle in the bottom of the sea!

Zhang Qianqian and I inquired from more than 10 o'clock in the morning to 12 o'clock in the afternoon, and we ran back and forth on that street three times, but we never heard that there was such a person as Jin Dianlong!

"He won't lie to us, let's go back and forth, and inquire about all the stalls, and there is no one named Jin Dianlong at all!" Because we were in a hurry, we ran down almost non-stop these few times, a thin layer of sweat appeared on Zhang Qianqian's white and tender forehead, her little face was slightly red, and she was very good-looking.

I was stunned, and I forgot to answer her words for a while, until she glared at me, I quickly withdrew my gaze and retorted to her in embarrassment, "Even if he is talking nonsense, but my uncle said the same, my uncle will never lie to us, right?" ”

After I said this, Zhang Qianqian bit her lip tightly and hesitated for a moment before whispering, "Shen Dongfeng, I think your uncle is a little suspicious...... I know that you have a good relationship with your uncle, but I just tell the truth, and I also say it for you to judge, not that you think he is a bad person, you don't have to look at me with that kind of eyes! ”

Zhang Qianqian suddenly said that my uncle was suspicious, and my heart immediately flashed with displeasure, but what Zhang Qianqian said made sense, at this time, any clues may provide us with clues.

Seeing that I didn't look at her like that anymore, Zhang Qianqian said, "When you asked your uncle if there was a mirror, your uncle said that he wanted to protect the safety of the people in the village, so he couldn't give it to us, do you remember?" ”

I nodded, yes, I did ask my uncle, and my uncle did say that, but what's the matter?

"But your uncle let us escape so that we could save the village, if we die, will he have no hope at all?" Zhang Qianqian frowned and analyzed: "Since he wants us to save the village, he should do everything he can to save our lives, if that mirror can protect the people in the village, it can also protect us, but why doesn't your uncle give it to us?" ”

I didn't expect this, but after Zhang Qianqian said this, I felt that my uncle's approach seemed to be contradictory and full of suspicions!

If Zhang Qianqian and I lost our lives, no one would come out for help, so how could the village be saved?

Could it be that my uncle has any other secrets that he hasn't told me? Or, was the situation so urgent that he didn't think about it at all?

Before I could figure it out, Zhang Qianqian grabbed my hand and exclaimed in a low voice, "Oh my God! ”

I was thinking about it when she grabbed my hand so suddenly that I shuddered and reflexively asked her, "What's wrong?" ”

"Look ahead, there's a woman in red!" Zhang Qianqian stretched out her little finger and pointed ahead, but her hand couldn't stop shaking, and her voice trembled violently, "It's the woman standing in front of the shroud stall, a woman wearing a red dress and an umbrella!" ”

When she pointed out to me the woman in red, Zhang Qianqian's eyes were round, and she was horrified, her small mouth was tightly pursed, and her eyelashes were fanning violently, as if she had seen something terrible, her appearance made me suddenly nervous, and I hurriedly looked in the direction she was pointing.

Sure enough, in front of the shroud stall about four or five meters away from us, there stood a woman wearing red clothes, red pants and red shoes.

Moreover, the people next to him are obviously here to go shopping and buy things, they are all looking at it while walking, and some will stop to choose what they like, only this woman is holding an umbrella and standing on the lively street in a daze, motionless, looking very weird!

When I looked over, she was covering her face with an umbrella, I didn't see what she looked like, but looking at her direction, she should be facing our direction!

For a moment, I had the illusion that this woman in red was looking at us!

After this thought flashed, a slight chill crawled on my back, but Zhang Qianqian's reaction was too intense, I was afraid that she had just experienced the tragedy in the village, and her spirit was too tense, so I immediately comforted her softly, "Now this person is wearing everything, don't you care......"

Before I finished speaking, Zhang Qianqian looked directly at the woman and said, "You, look, she, she, she is me, my sister-in-law!" ”

I didn't realize that the sister-in-law she said was a female corpse, and when I reacted, I shuddered and immediately looked at the woman in red!

"Oh no, she's leaving, let's catch up!" When I looked up at the woman in red again, she was already squeezing into the crowd in the opposite direction of us, Zhang Qianqian shouted, and dragged me to chase forward.

I didn't hesitate at all, I immediately quickened my pace, and followed behind the woman in red with Zhang Qianqian, biting her whereabouts tightly, not daring to miss the slightest.

Because of the female corpse that the Zhang family got back, the whole village suffered a catastrophe, and if there are any clues, we will not let it go.

But isn't the female corpse still in the village, why did she come to Linxian?

When we thought about this, we didn't delay at all, and followed closely behind the woman in red as fast as we could, the woman in red had an umbrella in her hand, and the crowds around her were crowded, she actually walked very fast, and the two of us needed to trot all the way to keep up.

I saw that the woman in red walked on the main street of South Street for a while, and suddenly turned into a small alley, then walked several alleys, and then quickly got into a courtyard at the end of a small alley.

South Street is relatively old, the houses next to it are relatively old, there are dark green moss grape vines everywhere, it looks very old, especially the yard at the end of the alley where the woman in red got in, it is even more old, the wall is still that kind of adobe wall, the wall has long been peeled off and not decent, and the wall is wrapped with a thick layer of grapevines, as if no one has lived in it for a long time.

Zhang Qianqian's little hand held my hand tightly, and the two of us slowly approached the courtyard, and finally stood in front of this door.

When the woman in red entered, the dark black door was ajar, as if she was not at all guarded.

"Did you really see her face just now?" Looking at the silent tomb-like courtyard in front of me, I couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and asked Zhang Qianqian in a low voice.

Zhang Qianqian nodded affirmatively, her voice trembling violently, "I saw it, it's my sister-in-law!" ”

I swallowed again, "Okay, I'll knock on the door, let's find an excuse to go in and have a look." ”

Zhang Qianqian hesitated for a moment, but nodded in agreement, and when I raised my hand to knock on the door, she stared at the half-hidden dark door, nervous to the extreme, as if something vicious could rush out of the door at any time.

I knocked a few times and the yard was quiet and there was no movement!

"It's strange, didn't the woman in red just go in, why didn't there be any movement at all?" I knocked a few times, muttered, and then reached out and slowly pushed the door open, intending to observe the situation in the yard before making a decision.

After I pushed the door open and we swept the scene in the yard, Zhang Qianqian and I immediately took a few steps back, speechless in surprise!

In this courtyard, there is a big red coffin!

What surprised us was not only the big red coffin in the courtyard, but also an open black umbrella on this big red coffin!

That black umbrella is the woman in red just now!

"Damn, how could someone put a coffin in their own yard!" This time, even Zhang Qianqian couldn't help but swear!

I asked her if she wanted to go up and have a look, and Zhang Qianqian said of course she would, since the black umbrella of the woman in red was on the coffin, then she must be in the courtyard, and she must go in to have a look.

"And what if, she's in the coffin?" I looked at the big red coffin and the swarthy umbrella, and suddenly I thought of the woman in red, standing motionless on the street with a black umbrella covering her face.

It's weird!

Zhang Qianqian seemed to be iron-hearted, although her little face instantly turned pale after I said it, she still gritted her teeth and said, "I have to go and see if she is my sister-in-law!" ”
