Chapter 24: Risking Your Life
"It's fine." Then I heard the sound of cooing.
Li Jie waited for a while, but Chen Mo's voice was still a little dry.
"Going?"
"In the queue route, it is estimated that it will take another hour to take off." Li Jie's words changed, and his voice was full of helplessness.
"This time, Lao Peng's road has been cut off, and the matchmakers who have been separated by a few hands are anxious, hey, I still want to explain."
"Heh, the scapegoats have been chosen, what else do you need to explain." Chen Mo knew that his identity would not be exposed, and he was a little more relaxed.
"Hand back a word, the house of the Star Federation or a female number one, let yourself choose."
"Tsk!" Li Jiegang was in pain, and Chen Mo threw another problem.
"No matter what the cost, I want to know the truth about what happened in Yelang as soon as possible."
Li Jie was silent, and Chen Mo added.
"If you have to! Certain! Can't let people know it's us looking! ”
Feeling the resoluteness in Chen Mo's tone, Li Jie sighed, he knew Chen Mo too well, and there was no need to say any more superfluous words.
Even the kind of thing just now is willing to give the house and the female number one, this sentence regardless of the cost may be really regardless of the cost.
However, he also felt an unusual atmosphere from the feedback from the hospital, and it was rare that he did not say yes.
"I do my best."
"Okay, contact Xuandu."
Hang up, and silence falls in the car.
Chen Mo looked at the passenger seat in a daze, his eyes seemed to be able to see several mobile phones in it through the leather of his backpack, he hesitated for a long time, and finally decided to wait.
Airplanes! The car started slowly.
The sun was blazing at 2:14, the air was hot and dancing, and the moment you opened the car door, you had the illusion of entering a stove.
Chen Mo raised his head and looked at the blazing sun hanging high, not only did he not complain, but he was a little reluctant.
Perhaps it was the father-in-law of the sun who stared at him with big eyes that gave Chen Mo the courage to risk himself.
Guan Qing Road, just at the foot.
At this time, the Guanqing intersection has been put on a temporary one-way sign, only allowed to go out, not allowed to enter.
There is a rare emptiness on both sides of the road, the usually sought-after parking spaces are empty, and what is even more unusual is that the shops on the sidewalks on both sides are almost all closed!
Standing at the intersection and looking at it for a while, Chen Mo found that the vehicles were almost full of things, and they all looked panicked, as if they were fleeing from the famine.
Fortunately, the intersection did not block pedestrians, but he walked about 500 meters along the sidewalk and stopped.
At the end of the field of vision, a large number of special vehicles can already be seen.
The old cement door of the Guanqing community is guarded by a bright cordon, and there is a sense of the trend of prison style.
The expected picture of the onlookers automatically explaining did not appear, and it seemed that he was late.
Chen Mo turned around and left, and when he was about to approach the security booth in the parking lot of the shop, his steps suddenly stopped.
In the security hall, an old man was watching him through the window.
I think it's strange that someone is wearing a mask on such a hot day.
However, Chen Mo still didn't take off his mask, strode to the window, and without saying a word, he took out a black wooden box from his bag, took out a cigarette from it and handed it over.
"Uncle, what's going on inside?"
Kala, the window opened, and the old man had just leaned out half of his body, and then retracted as if he was burned by the air, but he still reached out and took the cigarette.
"Surely this cigarette is not cheap."
After staring at the cigarette holder for a long time, the old man popped up with a comment.
"You're not a local?"
The old man lit a cigarette and took a beautiful puff, and the crow's feet at the corners of his eyes suddenly appeared, "A good cigarette is different!" ”
He nodded, "From the beach." ”
Chen Mo threw the cigarette case over with a smile, the old man hurriedly continued, and was about to speak when Chen Mo said with a smile, "I quit smoking, just the last pack, please help me digest it." ”
The old man hesitated for a moment, quietly put the cigarette case into his pocket, and shook his head while laughing, "You guys are so happy, come in and sit." ”
As he spoke, he opened the aluminum door.
As soon as Chen Mo entered the door, he felt a burst of coolness, and the simple security booth that could only be described as cramped actually had air conditioning.
As soon as you enter, there is a chair, in front of which is a computer that plays parking lot monitoring, a pole lifter and the like, and in the back is a simple bed that fits perfectly in size.
The old man sat on the bed and motioned for Chen Mo to sit on the stool.
"Little brother, I don't know what you are asking this department to do, but I don't recommend ......"
The old man suddenly became happy when he said this, presumably because he reacted to this, and I am afraid that everyone will only be more interested.
"I was told in the morning that we couldn't talk nonsense, so we just talked about it."
Chen Mo nodded, "I'm just curious, by the way, rubbing your old air-conditioned room." ”
The old man smiled, but there was not much smile on his face.
"I washed people, I washed several a while ago, and I should have washed more last night."
He took a deep breath and spat out a smoke dragon in his mouth, "More than a dozen ambulances came in the early morning, hey." ”
"How did so many people die? Contagious disease? Chen Mo pretended to be surprised.
The old man shook his head, "It is said that it is haunted, and it will be passed on as soon as the department is opened, but no one believes it except for the family members." ”
"Last night."
The old man's throat rolled a little, "I also met a female ghost last night, and she disappeared in the blink of an eye with a corpse. ”
Chen Mo's eyes narrowed slightly, "Such an evil sect?" ”
Just as we were talking, a burst of voices suddenly sounded outside the door.
"Old Su! Old Sue! ”
The old man gave Chen Mo a look, meaning to make him wait, and then walked out sideways.
Chen Mo leaned his foot against the door, and through the gap he saw a middle-aged woman walking briskly outside the door with a little girl who looked no more than ten years old.
"People have seen it, let's leave quickly after speaking, Auntie, this is already a mistake, is it good to be obedient."
The little girl has her head down, her eyes hidden under neat cute bangs, and she can only see that her skin is very white.
She didn't speak, she slowly raised her hand, and slowly opened her small palm.
Chen Mo got up slightly, only to see that it seemed to be a small pebble or something.
"Grandpa, pay you back."
Chen Mo couldn't see the old man's expression, only saw him raise his hand and gently stroke the little girl's head.
"No, don't be afraid, just wait a little longer, it's a blessing to go over there, grandpa will come to see you soon."
He twisted the little girl's palm into his hand, and his voice was a little low.
"Good girl, go ahead, don't trouble Auntie."
The girl nodded vigorously, and then was led away by the woman.
waited until the backs of the two could not be seen, and the old security guard, who was called Lao Qin, turned around and came back.
"What is this?"
The old man's mood was obviously affected, but he still explained with a long sigh.
"It's pitiful, there was only one father in the family who knew how to drink every day, but it was washed off last night, and the community had no choice but to settle down in the welfare home first."
The old man sighed as he rubbed the things in his hand.
Only then did Chen Mo see clearly, it was a small gray-black pebble, very inconspicuous, and it was estimated that it was something that the child picked up in some pile of sand.
