Shen Nuo and I hurried to the station, it was already dark, and we finally got on the last bus to the town at the last minute. There were not many people in the car, Shen Nuo and I sat at the back of the car, and the smell of the car was very strong. There were still people smoking, Shen Nuo opened the window, the cold wind poured into the window, and Shen Nuo's hair was blown up.

L City is becoming more and more like a metropolis, and under the neon lights, a severely disfigured person is simply an outlier in the eyes of the world. Although I have never seen the appearance of a disfigured woman, according to Hao Meilin's description, the person suspected of being Cui Yunyi has a hideous face and is very terrifying, such a person is incompatible with such a city.

In order not to attract the attention of others. She will not be in the most prosperous city center of L City, but in some small villages and towns that are as remote as possible. I immediately thought of the town where Xu Yi's house is located, the most dangerous place is the safest place, before that, we thought about where Cui Yunyi would be, but we didn't expect Cui Yunyi to stay in the town where his home was.

There are not many towns under the jurisdiction of L City, and the town where Xu Yi's family is located is the most backward one, if someone really wants to look for Cui Yunyi, then Cui Yunyi is hiding in the village where his home is located, and no one will think of it. So Shen Nuo and I quickly caught up with this train.

Night. The driver drove slower, and the car drove on the bumpy road for a full hour, but still had no intention of stopping. Outside the car window, the night was confused, the road was lined with trees and grass, the forest was secluded, and under the moonlight, the outlines of the trees were blurred, and the shadows of the trees flew back rapidly.

Looking at such a peaceful night, my heart suddenly became very uneasy.

When I turned my head to look at Shen Nuo, Shen Nuo had already fallen asleep on my shoulder. Thin hair sprinkled on her fair face, her lips were like blood, and for a moment, I mistakenly thought that the bright red in the darkness was the blood flowing from Shen Nuo's mouth.

Shen Nuo slept soundly, unaffected by the bumps in the road.

Finally, the car slowly stopped. Just as he was about to wake up Shen Nuo, Shen Nuo suddenly opened his eyes, looking at each other, Shen Nuo smiled slightly, his eyes were full of satisfaction. She stood up: "It's been a long time since I've slept so peacefully." Shen Nuo didn't wait for me to answer, and got out of the car first.

When you get out of the car. All at once the air became clear. The station is still a short walk away from the town center, Shen Nuo and I walked forward slowly, looked at our watches, it was already eight o'clock in the evening, and there were still a few people in the town, and they were closing the stalls. As for the others, they have already returned home.

As we walked forward, the lights on both sides of the street began to slowly go out, and the townspeople went to bed early. Pounds lead to garbage.

I have been to this town many times, the first time I came with Xu Yi, and later, Xu Yi took me many times. Since Xu Yi came back, I have been here more than once, and the most impressive one is that Du Lei committed suicide at Xu Yi's house inexplicably.

Thinking of Du Lei's death, my heart aches faintly.

We came to Xu Yi's doorstep, and we have narrowed down the scope to this small town, and as for whether it is correct or not, we need to verify it ourselves. Despite this, there are still a lot of people living in this town, and for a while, we have another difficulty, it is the time of night, we can't go door to door to inquire, such a needle in a haystack, it is unrealistic.

Shen Nuo casually found a pedestrian walking on the street, but after asking, that person didn't know who was disfigured in the town. The people of the town were simple, and as long as they were not alive, they could usually call each other by name, and we asked several people in succession, and after asking to no avail, we began to wonder if my speculation was wrong.

I looked at this long street, the so-called town center, which was really just two streets, and these two streets could eventually be connected to the road out of the town. Several villages under the jurisdiction of the town are far away from the town, and there are very few people, so I don't think Cui Yunyi will hide in a village with so few people.

It is easy to attract the attention of others when there are too many people, but it is also easy to attract the attention of others if there are too few people. There are only a few people in the whole village, and if Cui Yunyi lives anywhere, what she does will be noticed by everyone. Therefore, a place like a small town with a moderate area and population is the most suitable for Cui Yunyi to hide.

"Let's find out if there are any other trails that lead out of town." I said to Shen Nuo.

Shen Nuo understood and nodded.

These two streets are the busiest places in town, and people don't know that there is a disfigured woman, which means that she is rarely seen here. But she had to get out of town, so if there were other out-of-town and remote paths, then Cui Yunyi would most likely live in that place.

Shen Nuo and I searched the whole town in the dark, and as I expected, we found a relatively remote path, which should have been an old street, on both sides of the path, there were many old houses that were about to collapse leaning there, and we followed the path.

Closer to the back mountain, we found a few families that probably didn't communicate much with the people in the town, perhaps because of poverty. As we passed by, there was an old man who was about to open the door and go into the house, and we learned from the old man's mouth.

When we asked if there was a disfigured woman living nearby, the old man immediately pointed us in the direction, it was a dilapidated old house, and the old man told us that there was a woman living in the house, and he had the impression that the woman had lived here more than ten years ago.

Women rarely go out, and there are always people in the town who carry vegetables and shout in the streets, so women don't even have to go to the market. The old man's description of the woman, whether it is age or height, is very close to the Cui Yunyi we are looking for.

Shen Nuo and I didn't hesitate and went straight to knock on the woman's door. To our surprise, the door opened quickly, and when we saw the woman's face, Shen Nuo and I were stunned. The scars on this woman's face can no longer be described as hideous, and the criss-crossing scars divide the woman's face into countless small parts.

It looked as if the scar was about to tear the woman's entire head open.

The woman was about fifty years old, which is inferred from the grayness of her temples. A hint of surprise flashed across the woman's face at the sight of us, and then she turned around and wanted to leave. At the moment of emergency, Shen Nuo's hand was on the disfigured woman's body, the woman was old, Shen Nuo grabbed her, and she couldn't run away at all.

"Cui Yunyi!" A name came out of Shen Nuo's mouth.

Hearing Shen Nuo's voice, the woman stopped struggling, and when the woman turned around again, her eyes were full of tears, and she let out a long sigh: "It seems that I can't escape after all." ”

The woman confessed, and she beckoned us and led us into her house. The house was very simple, there was a candle on the table that had been extinguished, and the woman lit the candle again, and the candle flame flickered, and when I looked at the scars on the woman's face, I suddenly felt that the scars on the woman's face were dense like spiders and centipede feet, as if they were moving.

The woman poured us water, and after that, she sat quietly beside us and didn't say anything.

"Looks like you already know what we're here for." Shen Nuo said to the woman.

The woman nodded: "I guessed it, but why don't you still want to let me go?" ”

Shen Nuo was stunned, the woman was already choked, and listening to her tone, it seemed to be slightly different from our previous speculation. Shen Nuo asked, the woman spoke quickly, I didn't interject, but carefully looked at the house where the woman lived and the woman's expression.

The woman told us that ten years ago, she and Xu Rongzheng ran a business, owed huge debts, and the people who lent them money asked Xu Rongzheng and his wife to join them. Xu Rongzheng and his wife had no choice but to join, and after joining those people's organizations, Xu Rongzheng's economic crisis was solved, but what that organization did was all murder, arson, and murder.

Xu Rongzheng and his wife didn't want to live like that again, so Xu Rongzheng planned the car accident.

Xu Rongzheng sacrificed himself and let her survive. However, those people still found her later, and the scar on her face was also scratched by those people, and she finally escaped, so she hid here to prevent others from finding her.

"Hiding in the town closest to home, you can think of it." Shen Nuo said.

"Shen Nuo, she's not Cui Yunyi......"
