Chapter 21: Old Books

Just returned to China and saw my boyfriend!

Isn't that exactly what the girl in the red dress told me that night!

was deceived, she should have died in front of the bronze bell!!

I actually heard a story from a dead man!

I was chilled.

Tell Xiao Liu to meet this girl in the red dress in the future, don't bother with it.

Although Xiaoliu is reluctant, seeing my cold appearance, he will accept it.

Seeing that I was not in a good mental state, Xiaoliu asked me to rest for one more night, and said nothing tonight that would let me drive.

After experiencing some strange things in Tiger Waist Mountain, I was really haggard and slept until dawn.

In the morning, I went to eat in the cafeteria, and when I passed the compound, I happened to meet Lao Wu and quarreled with a few policemen.

I leaned over and listened, and it turned out that there was a new investigation team leader from above, and the first thing he did was to re-investigate thoroughly.

Listening to what they said, the captain was going to inspect the small second floor behind the office building.

Lao Wu naturally disagreed, and made excuses for a while saying that it was full of scrap car parts, and then saying that there were commercial secrets in it, which was inconvenient for the public security to inspect.

This captain is also a hard stubble, seeing that Lao Wu was not allowed to enter, he directly asked two of his subordinates to press him to the ground.

Lao Wu still didn't hand over the key, and the captain was about to smash the door when he found two iron hammers in a fit of anger.

I entered the second floor twice, and the second time I stole a file bag, which not only contained the room where Lao Wu lived, but also the secret of Lao Tang that the sixth uncle said.

Two policemen armed with hammers knocked off the lock in a few clicks, and a group of five or six people swarmed in.

Lao Wu got up from the ground, quickly grabbed me and said:

"Xiao Li, follow me to stop them, don't let them go up to the second floor"

I know in my heart, everything is on the second floor, Lao Wu is naturally nervous, but the police want to investigate, who can stop it.

Old Tang and I hurriedly trotted all the way in.

After the police entered the building, they were divided into two teams, one team of three people to check the first floor, and the other pair of captains led two people to check the second floor.

Lao Wu saw that the captain was going upstairs, and he ran to grab him after the madman.

"You heard about me, there is an evil on the second floor, and you can't go up."

The captain pushed Lao Wu hard and scolded:

"In broad daylight, you don't talk here, but you don't let this building be checked, I think you have a ghost in your heart"

After that, he beckoned the two policemen around him to go upstairs.

I had the heart to go up with the police, but it was really pitiful to see Lao Wu being pushed aside.

I went over and helped Lao Wu up and said:

"Lao Wu, what are you doing here, there is nothing in this broken building, they can check if they want to"

Old Wu glared at me fiercely and said:

"You know a, it's over, it's going to be a big deal this time"

Seeing Lao Wu so nervous, it aroused my curiosity even more, what is the secret of this small second floor?

Lao Wu made a gesture, and I helped him to follow him upstairs.

When I went up to the second floor, I was stunned.

Although it was dark the first two times I visited, I clearly remembered that except for the archives room, the upstairs rooms were open and empty, just like the downstairs.

But now, when I look at it, the doors of the rooms on the upper floors are all closed, and most of them are locked.

In the midst of his doubts, a strong fishy smell wafted over.

The captain frowned, looked back at Lao Wu and said:

"What are you hiding upstairs that stinks?"

Lao Wu was just about to open his mouth when the captain's phone rang.

"What? Zhang Ju is here in person, okay, I'll go down."

After hanging up the phone, the captain pointed at Lao Wu and said:

"You wait for me to finish meeting the director, and search room by room!"

After saying that, he motioned his subordinates to look at Lao Wu, and hurried downstairs.

Lao Wu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the captain going downstairs, and gave me a look while the police were not paying attention.

I knew Lao Wu better, and immediately understood what he meant, he wanted me to stay here.

When the two policemen saw that the captain was gone, they also went out, and after meeting up with the policemen on the first floor, I deliberately walked behind them, and quickly flashed into a room on the first floor while no one was paying attention.

At the door of the first floor, one of the policemen turned around and disappeared from me and asked:

"Hey, where's that kid just now?"

Lao Wu hurriedly sloppily said:

"I'm afraid I'll be caught and run out a long time ago, this look is like a fart policeman"

With a "snap", Lao Wu seemed to have been kicked and fell to the ground.

"Keep your mouth clean and close the door"

After that, I heard the door "clang" and it was pushed shut.

Lao Wu didn't tell me the truth, and I stayed here, not because of his instructions, but because I wanted to take this opportunity to see the contents of the other two portfolios.

When I saw the crowd go out, I hurried up to the second floor.

When I was walking to the archives, I received a text message from Lao Wu.

"Brother, you hurry up and go to the room opposite the easternmost archive on the second floor and burn the books on the table."

This one was just finished reading, and then another text message came.

"Lighter in the drawer"

I picked up my phone and thought to myself:

"Books? Is that what the village chief said, the book that was taken out of the demon cave and taken away by Lao Wu back then? ”

I quickened my pace, and after a few moments, stood at the door of the archive room again.

The door to this archive is unlocked!

I pushed the door open and entered, quickly opening the filing cabinet, which was empty and empty.

I know that after I stole the first file bag, Lao Wu transferred the information.

Thinking of this, I turned back to Lao Wu's room opposite and kicked the door open.

"Holy Damn Me"

A fishy smell greeted you.

I quickly covered my mouth and nose and opened my eyes to see.

The room was filled with vats of dead fish, which were so rotten and disgusting that they were so rotten and rotten that they were disgusting!

There is a single bed by the window, and at the head of the bed is a small table with an old black book on it.

I walked around the fish bucket and picked up the book, and hurried out to close the door.

This is really an old book!

The spine of the book is sewn with white thread, and although the book is thick, it is very light in the hand.

The paper seems to have aged to the limit, and a little force can tear it apart.

On the pure black cover, there are four strange big characters written on it.

I don't have a high level of education, so I don't know how to pronounce this word.

He is a comrade-in-arms with Liu Yunbo and Lao Tang, and the complicated relationship here makes me have no trust in Lao Wu.

Now this old Wu asked me to burn the book, maybe there are some ulterior secrets in it?

I thought I would have time to go back and study slowly, so I carefully wrapped the book in my clothes.

After all, it wasn't an option here, so I walked around the second floor and finally found a room with an unlocked back on the second floor.

I kicked the iron bar off the back window of this room for a long time, took a deep breath, and jumped straight in.

..................

Hospital.

I broke a bone.

It was Xiaoliu who sent me to the hospital.

Fortunately, it was only a minor fracture, and the doctor treated me and put a plaster cast on my right leg.

I knew that Lao Wu and others would soon come to the hospital to see me, so I pressed the book under the mattress.

Sure enough, after Lao Wu got the news, he and some colleagues came to the hospital with fruit baskets.

I explained to the other colleagues that the leg had been accidentally dropped on the stairs of the dormitory.

Lao Wu is a person who understands, so he naturally knows what is going on, and he habitually scolds me a few words, and then changes the topic.

After a few words of greeting, everyone was about to go back to the company, and when Lao Wu saw that there was no one else in the room, he put his head to my ear and whispered:

"Xiao Li, has the book been burned?"

I nodded and said:

"If you burn Angkor, there will be no ashes left"

Lao Wu narrowed his eyes and asked again in a low voice:

"Are you really burning?"

"Angkor, don't you know what kind of culture I have? Am I a book lover? I don't burn it, what's the use of me keeping that broken book?"

Lao Wu didn't know that I went to Huyin Mountain, and he also heard about the origin of his book.

Satisfied patted my chest and said:

"Brother, you can recuperate here with peace of mind, let Xiaoliu open the night shift first, your salary is not worse than you, I will give you another 500 bonus this month"

"Then thank you, brother"

This old Wu is really cunning, and when he got up to leave, he saw my coat put aside, and took a handful into his pocket.

Seeing that a few pockets were empty, he nodded and went out.

After everyone left, I felt very tired, so I fell asleep in a daze.

I didn't expect it to be late at night when I woke up.

This hospital is the closest small hospital to the company.

There are not many people hospitalized, and the whole floor is very quiet at night.

I didn't tell my family about the broken bones, and there was no one around me to take care of me.

But fortunately, the injury was not serious, and I was able to go to the toilet by myself with crutches.

I lowered my head and slowly jumped forward on one foot.

Just about to get to the toilet door, I was hit by an old man who came out of the toilet.

I fell to the ground on all fours, the old man looked to be in his sixties, skinny and skinny, looked at me embarrassedly and smiled and said:

"Oops, boy, I'm sorry, I'm in a bit of a hurry"

My tears of pain were about to come out, and I said:

"Uncle, you have to watch the road in a hurry, I just lived in the courtyard during the day"

I was still waiting for the old man to pull me, but I didn't expect him to nod and leave.

I can't sit on the ground, the position of this men's toilet is awkward, and I can't call the nurse.

In the end, I stood up little by little by holding on to the toilet door.

I felt that my legs were completely broken, and when I returned to the bed, my hospital gown was wet with sweat.

It was so painful that I couldn't sleep, and it wasn't until it was almost dawn that I barely squinted for a while.

I don't know what time it was, but I was woken up by a cry from the door.

I sat up and looked out, only to see a family in the opposite ward wiping their tears and holding something out.

I asked a big brother in the clinic and said:

"Brother, what's wrong with the opposite room?"

The old brother sighed and whispered:

"His old man had a heart attack in the toilet in the middle of the night last night"

I tried to calm myself down.

"What time did you die, big brother, do you know?"

"I heard it was twelve o'clock in the middle of the night."

I can't feel the pain in my right leg at all.

Yesterday I went to the toilet at one o'clock in the middle of the night!!
