Chapter 61: It's Dark, Please Close Your Eyes
When he returned to the store, it was already evening, and as soon as Liang Chuan walked to the door, he smelled the smell of meat coming from inside, which made Liang Chuan a little uncomfortable, and subconsciously frowned.
Sun Xiaoqiang sat behind the counter, with a roast chicken and a few plates of side dishes in front of him, and he was very happy to eat.
Seeing him like this, Liang Chuan couldn't say anything, so he could only pretend to be very natural and prepare to go to the bathroom to wash up and then go upstairs to rest, there are some things that he needs to think about alone.
To be honest, when Sun Xiaoqiang was accepted, it also had a little meaning of "the same is the end of the world", but now, Sun Xiaoqiang's ability has disappeared inexplicably, which makes Liang Chuan even more embarrassed to drive people away.
In addition, on weekdays, Sun Xiaoqiang has done a blameless job of opening the shop door in the morning to do business, and he can't find any faults and excuses as a "shopkeeper".
At least, after learning that that person was also in Rongcheng, Liang Chuan knew that before the matter with that guy was settled, his life would not want to return to the leisurely sitting at the door of the shop and basking in the sun.
"Yo, I didn't expect you to come back so early, sorry, sorry. ”
Sun Xiaoqiang smiled, got up and wrapped all the roast chicken and other side dishes left on the counter, and then took the initiative to squat at the door of the shop to continue eating, he knew that Liang Chuan didn't like to smell this greasy smell.
A teenager sat on the threshold, watching the people on the old street, eating the unfinished dinner by himself, and it did look a little desolate against the backdrop of the sunset.
"It doesn't have to be like this. Liang Chuan said.
"It's okay, it's okay to squat here and eat, it's lively. Sun Xiaoqiang still smiled.
"............ next time you want to eat it"
Sun Xiaoqiang was a little surprised, Liang Chuan was willing to change his living habits for himself?
"Let's go to the massage hall next door and find a table to sit down and eat. Liang Chuan continued.
"............" Sun Xiaoqiang suddenly felt that he had just risen a little moved and blind.
"I'll put your clothes away for you and put them in the bathroom. Sun Xiaoqiang reminded, "I tried my best to fold it, but it was definitely not as neat as you." ”
Liang Chuan nodded, he went to the bathroom to wash his face, and then walked out again and sat down on the chair behind the counter.
Sun Xiaoqiang had already eaten his own dinner at this time, came over to help Liang Chuan pour a cup of hot water, and then made his sofa bed down and sat down.
"Are you in a bad mood today?" asked Sun Xiaoqiang.
Liang Chuan didn't answer, which was a tacit acquiescence.
He didn't want to eat dinner today, he wanted to be willful.
"Meow. ”
Pu'er walked down the stairs, jumped on the counter, yawned, and fell asleep again, Pu'er was hardly out of the bunk, he was more lazy and quiet than any cat.
"There's a new case in the police station?" Sun Xiaoqiang guessed, but soon he retorted to himself: "No, it's your own business, did you find the clue that found your guy?"
Liang Chuan looked at Sun Xiaoqiang,
Sun Xiaoqiang shook his head, "My ability has not recovered, I just guessed, the matter of the police station, no matter who dies, no matter how miserable it is, you are also you, you will not show your emotions so obviously, unless it is your own business, you will not care about other things." ”
"Should I boast about your progress and send you a little red flower?"
"It's okay, by the way, I'm just curious when the young lady will come back last time?" Sun Xiaoqiang rubbed his hands, "The young lady is very good-looking, if only I could get rid of the bad habit of always liking to use knives and preparing to cut people." ”
Liang Chuan leaned back slightly, leaning back on his chair, his fingers tapping lightly on the counter.
He could feel that today, that guy was very close to him, and the two of them had two chances in a day, basically no more than twenty meters apart.
It's like a cat's paw, constantly scratching your heart, so that your emotions can't calm down all the time.
At this time, Liang Chuan's mobile phone rang, and he answered the phone, it was Wu Dahai calling.
"Chuan'er. Wu Dahai looked very depressed, and then yawned loudly, "I'm annoyed, Chuan'er." ”
Wu Dahai is really annoying enough, first the Zhumen carving case, then the baby murder case, the two murder cases, both of which have not been solved, and his pressure is indeed very great.
"What's wrong?" Liang Chuan asked knowingly.
"It's just annoying, are you in the store, I just got off work, let's go to you and talk to you." ”
Liang Chuan looked at the time, then looked at Sun Xiaoqiang who was sitting on the sofa bed, and said, "I've already slept." ”
"Tut-tut. Wu Dahai smacked his lips and said helplessly: "Okay, then I'll go home and sleep too." ”
Wu Dahai hung up the phone.
Liang Chuan put the phone down.
At this time, the shop door has not been related, but tonight's old street is indeed a little more deserted than a few days ago, and when Liang Chuan came back, he also found that many shops were closed in advance today.
"What day is today?" Liang Chuan asked Sun Xiaoqiang.
"Before you came back, I asked the proprietress of the massage hall next door, and she said it was 'October Dynasty', and I didn't understand what it meant, but business was very good today. Sun Xiaoqiang replied.
"Oh, Winter Clothes Festival. Liang Chuan understood.
The Winter Clothes Festival, also known as the "October Dynasty", is a traditional Chinese sacrificial festival, and is known as the four "ghost festivals" of the year, along with the Qingming Festival and Shangsi Festival in spring, and the Zhongyuan Festival in autumn.
"You see, there are quite a few people out there burning paper in the streets. "Sun Xiaoqiang Nunu mouth," and then looked at Liang Chuan, "Can you get it?"
Liang Chuan stood up, walked to the door of the store, and did not answer Sun Xiaoqiang's question directly, but said: "The money of the dead is a blessing to take, but it is very hot." ”
"I can't see those things now, I feel that the whole world is quiet, can you see that in front of the brazier that burns paper money, is there really a ghost standing there to collect money?" Sun Xiaoqiang asked.
Liang Chuan shook his head, "After a person dies, once he goes down, he can't come back, and occasionally a few people who can still wander around don't go down." ”
"Shall we burn it too?" asked Sun Xiaoqiang.
"If you're cold, you can burn some roasting fire............" Suddenly, Liang Chuan understood what Sun Xiaoqiang meant, and the question he asked himself was actually thinking about his mother, "You burn it, and choose a few more paper figures to burn together." ”
"Thank you to the owner. Sun Xiaoqiang nodded and ran to the back room to get a brazier.
Liang Chuan went upstairs and stood by the windowsill of the bedroom on the second floor, from which he could see the charcoal braziers on the stretching streets of the old street.
Flickering fire, flying ashes,
Like a lantern on the ground,
With a slight sense of dreaminess and haze.
"Meow. ”
Pu'er also went upstairs at this time and lay on the windowsill.
Liang Chuan reached out and touched its head, and said:
"Don't rush to sleep yet, let me watch for a while. ”
..................
"Lu Fangweng, a very sentimental name. ”
Several policemen stood by the bedside and watched this old man who hurt here and there as soon as he arrived in the hospital.
Of course, they know what tricks Lao Dao is playing, but since he is in pain, he has to do a series of tests and stay in the hospital for observation, which is a necessary procedure and the power that Lao Dao has.
"Thank you, thank you, sir. ”
The old way is still obedient in bed.
"To be honest, you can't escape this time, it's a big problem, and it depends on whether people hold you accountable, otherwise ............" The policeman who was making temporary notes in the ward summoned his colleagues and asked in a low voice: "By the way, what is the identity of the female victim?"
"I can't find out. ”
"What, can't you find out?"
"I really can't find out, there are no valuable clues on the other party, and the phone is broken. ”
"Then continue to investigate, at least notify her family first. ”
"Understood. ”
"Officer, how many times have I told you, she is not a human, she is a ghost, why don't you believe it?" Lao Dao sighed deeply, "She is a ghost, can you still make a phone call to your colleagues below to check her account in the underworld?"
"Lu Fangweng, let me tell you, don't think that you can escape the punishment of the law by pretending to be crazy and stupid, you are too underestimate the law, you stay in the hospital for observation today, there are our comrades guarding outside, don't think about using any other crooked brains, otherwise it will be a crime and a crime. ”
At this moment, a policeman pushed open the door of the ward and came out, whispering to the policeman who had taken the note:
"Brother Liu, the female victim is gone. ”
"What, how is it possible?" The policeman known as Brother Liu was also stunned for a moment, "What the hell is going on, isn't there a comrade watching there?"
"That one, that one somehow fell asleep sitting outside the monitoring room. ”
"Rice bucket. ”
Brother Liu immediately got up and motioned for a few colleagues around him to go out with him, as an old policeman, he instinctively sensed that something was wrong, of course, he couldn't believe that the girl Lao Dao said was a ghost, unless his brain was in water.
He believes that the girl chose to run away directly in that situation, which means that the girl's identity is not clean, and she is likely to be a suspect at large, and the police have not found any clues about the girl's identity until the car accident, which supports his inference.
At this time, Brother Liu didn't bother to take care of this old way, and directly took someone out to prepare to find the girl, she was injured and should not be able to run far.
"Hey, hey, hey, comrade policeman, leave someone to accompany me, accompany me! I'm afraid of the dark!"
Lao Dao saw that the police were suddenly gone, and immediately panicked and began to shout.
The last policeman to walk pointed at the old road and warned: "You are safe!"
Then he turned off the lights in the room and closed the door to leave.
The ward immediately fell into darkness,
The old way keeps taking deep breaths, deep breaths, deep breaths,
He didn't know if there were any policemen watching from the corridor, so he didn't dare to run for the time being, but he was so scared that he only dared to curl up on the bed with his head covered by the quilt and pray to fall asleep early.
But somehow,
Lao Dao suddenly felt that his body seemed to be a little heavy,
He jerked and sat up, looking to his side.
Single Room,
From the wardrobe to the restroom and one's bed, there is no foreign matter,
Could it be that I am too nervous?
Lao Dao closed his eyes and began to recite the Taoist Heart Sutra silently, but the embarrassing thing was that he could only recite those few words, and at this time, Lao Dao found that his legs seemed to be a little heavy.
But I don't have anything in bed.
Don't............
Lao Dao stretched out his hand, grabbed the quilt under him, and then slowly lifted the quilt.
A woman's face appeared in the old quilt,
The woman's face is full of holes,
As if he had been tortured unimaginably,
There is hardly a piece of place that is intact with a good skin,
When Lao Dao found her,
The woman's face was still slightly tilted up,
Looking at the old way,
face,
With a cold smile.
————————
This old Dao Dragon's original arrangement was to be killed before, but when he was really going to kill him and let him get the lunch, he suddenly felt reluctant and let him survive.
In fantasy novels, it is often said that changing one's life against the sky, and Long thinks that this old way can be regarded as a success in changing one's life against the sky.
"He Came from Hell" will be on the shelves on February 1st, and I hope you will support it at that time.
At last
Don't panic,
Hold on to the dragon!
