Chapter Twenty-Three: Meet Again
Ximen Jing reached over and held her palm, the tentacles were as cold as ice. He endured the cold and used the magic of asking spirits, only then did he hear the girl crying: "Big brother, take me home, I want to go home, please take me home, I don't want to be here, I can't go back by myself, they all bully me." ”
Ximen Jing felt as if his heart had been pricked by a needle, and there was a tingling pain, so he nodded hurriedly and said, "Don't be afraid, my brother will take you away!"
With that, he took the girl's hand and walked out, and countless dead souls rushed to this side, blocking the road tightly. Ximen Jing was furious, urging the aura in the Xuanfu to turn into the sun and spread it outside the body.
Suddenly, in the eyes of the dead soul, the human body was shrouded in a layer of colorful light, as if the gods had descended to earth, making it impossible for them to get close. The souls of the dead dodged to the sidelines. This kind of glow cannot be seen by the eyes of a living person. But for the dead soul, it is like substance, just as the night is afraid of the light, and the dead soul is born with the supreme yang aura.
The girl behind her also screamed, struggling to break away from Ximen Jing's palm, and she was also injured by the aura. Ximen Jing hurriedly dispersed the aura in his hand and pulled her out. The dead souls next to him were unwilling, and they stretched out their arms to grab them, all of them were injured by the qi of the sun, screaming and wailing constantly.
At this moment, in the middle of the corridor, a voice came: "Ximen Jing, what are you doing over there, hurry up!"
It turned out that Wang Shan came back from the archives, she changed her uniform and wore a beige down jacket, with a thin waist that looked very tall.
Ximen Jing couldn't be seen by her, so she hurriedly made up a lie and said: "Haven't we never been in the bureau, let's wander around casually if we are curious." ”
Wang Shan waited for Ximen Jing to come closer, and complained: "You can't run around here, you, do you know where you went just now?"
Ximen Jing shook his head. Wang Shan said: "There is the autopsy room and mortuary of the forensic team, we usually don't dare to go there, you are better, like visiting the free market......
Ximen Jing smiled secretly in his heart, if you can see the things here, you will definitely resign immediately. But with a teachable expression on his face, he said, "Don't worry, this is the first and last time!"
Wang Shan glanced at him fiercely, lowered her voice and said, "The girl you inquired about, the one named Xue Nianci, her body is placed over there!"
Ximen Jing already knew the truth at this time, but he couldn't show it in front of Wang Shan, so he pretended to ask, "She, she's really dead?"
Wang Shan's face turned pale instantly, and he looked left and right and said: "It's miserable, we were beaten to death and sawed off our limbs, if we go a little late, we may be ...... It's still her own mother who did it, it's miserable!"
When Ximen Jing heard this, his heart suddenly sank to the bottom, and he was angry and said angrily: "Is this what my mother did? It is understandable that she was killed by mistake, but why bother like this, where did the family get such a big hatred? This kind of person will not be able to escape the blame for his death!"
Wang Shan sighed and said: "Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, we analyze, maybe she missed, and what she did later was to escape legal punishment." ”
As they spoke, they walked through the hall and to the door of the building. Wang Shan said: "Do you know why you were asked to move, the crime scene is on the top of your bedroom, do you think you can still fall asleep?"
Ximen Jing suddenly felt that the girl's little hands became even colder, and the cold air was so strong that he could hardly hold it, and his body couldn't help but shiver a few times, and he didn't dare to use the aura to resist, so he had to grit his teeth and endure it.
Wang Shan noticed that something was wrong with him, and asked him if he was not feeling well, if he wanted to skip dinner another day, anyway, he was in Cloud City, and it was very convenient to meet at any time.
Ximen Jingqiang laughed and said: "What's the matter, it's that I wear less today, I have made an appointment with Shen Boran, by the way, where are we going to eat, I can send him an address, don't save me money, let's find a good place!"
Wang Shan's dormitory is nearby, and she doesn't want to go too far, remembering that there is an old Yuncheng hot pot here, which tastes good and has a booming business, and it is just right to eat hot pot in cold weather.
The two walked out of the door, facing a cold wind blowing, mixed with a few snow-white snowflakes. The weather forecast is really accurate, the day before yesterday I predicted that there would be snowfall recently, and it won't get down.
At first, the snowflakes were scattered like broken jade chips, and before the two of them left the compound, they had turned into a large piece, falling in a sloppy manner, and the ground turned white in an instant. Looking up, the snow flakes are interspersed and scattered, shining silver and white by the street lamps, which is extremely beautiful.
Ximen Jing stretched out his hand to take a piece, and the snowflakes turned into crystal droplets in the palm of his hand, and they were dried by the wind after a while, and he said: "It's been a long time since it snowed so heavily in Cloud City, fortunately it's winter!"
Wang Shan didn't understand the meaning of the words, and thought it was a slip of the tongue, so he didn't answer the topic, pointed to the roadside in the distance, and said, "That's where we eat." ”
This shop is not big, there are only 100 seats, more than a dozen tables, the decoration of the store is also very ordinary, but the business is very good, from the window to see that the inside is almost full, the thick steam rises from the pot, and the room seems to be full of warmth.
"Hey, it's all full, we're going to change the land, I'll hurry up and say to Lao Shen!"
Wang Shan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I have a place here!"
Pushing open the glass door, a wave of heat greeted you with the smell of charcoal, and the inside of the store was as warm as spring, and the outside was like two worlds.
A middle-aged man in a chef's uniform greeted him, and said with a smile on his face: "Shanshan is here, it's full outside, why don't you go to the old place!" It seems that Wang Shan is a regular customer and often comes.
Wang Shan exchanged a few words with him, and walked in with Ximenjing, through the corridor of the hall and kitchen, and went up a staircase, which was a small compartment with a table.
Ximen Jing paid attention to the store, and it turned out that they were not using an electric hot pot or gas, but an old-fashioned brass pot that burned charcoal. The flames are rising straight from the small chimney, and they look red, which is really joyful, but the smell of charcoal is a little choking.
The two of them sat down, a young man in a greasy chef's suit, and set a few cold dishes. The shredded radish is red and green, the shallots are mixed with tofu and white, the shrimp oil and cabbage heart are fragrant, and there is a plate of sugar and garlic. These make people have a great appetite when they look at it, and with the hot pot, it is clear and cool, which is really a perfect match.
Wang Shan said: "It's still the same, as long as mutton, we are all carnivores!"
The waiter said, "Okay, let's put two plates on the hands and cut the brain semi-fat and thin, you eat first!
Wang Shan glanced at Ximen Jing, and Ximen Jing said with a smile: "There are thousands of glasses of wine for confidants, how can friends get together without wine, what good wine do you have here?"
Without waiting for the waiter to speak, Wang Shan waved his hand and said, "Erguotou with hot pot, don't want other wine!"
