Hearing my dad's words, I was stunned, and my hand holding the phone couldn't stop trembling, and my whole body trembled.

I haven't left the provincial capital since I knew my mom was sick, and I haven't been back to my hometown, so why would my dad say that I sent the money back, you know, the money didn't go through my hands at all, and it was taken yesterday......

Surprised, my hairs stood on end, my brain was buzzing, could it be that the person who took the money yesterday sent it back, but how did he know that my parents needed this money, and even more strange was how he knew where my parents lived.

I didn't want to tell my family about shrouds, but now I didn't expect that even my parents would be involved, which made me a little at a loss.

"Son, why don't you speak, are you home, your mother asked me to let you thank those friends who borrowed money, it is not easy to lend you so much money in this world, you must not neglect others, and invite others to have a meal when you have time." My dad was talking on the phone.

At this time, I didn't have the leisure to listen to what he said, and hurriedly asked, "Dad, what did I say when I went back this morning besides giving you the money?" ”

"You didn't say anything, you said that you borrowed the money from a friend, and then you said that there was something else in the city and left in a hurry, no, what are you asking for, did you encounter something?" Although my father is an authentic farmer, he is not stupid, and when he heard my questioning, he immediately noticed that something was wrong.

"I didn't ...... I didn't encounter anything, since the money was sent back, it would be good, you concentrate on taking my mother to see a doctor, if the money is not enough, then tell me about me, I will find a way to make up the money, lock the door when I sleep at night these days, don't go out for a walk. I told me over the phone.

I haven't figured out the ins and outs of the matter yet, and I definitely can't tell my dad about it.

One is that they are afraid that they will be worried, and the other is that they will not be able to help even if they know.

Besides, even if I did tell the story, they wouldn't believe it, after all, they watched me grow up, how could they not tell what I looked like.

In this way, the person who took the money really had the same score as me, otherwise my parents would not be able to distinguish it.

Although my dad was a little skeptical of my instructions, he finally agreed, and after hanging up the call, I put my phone on the table and looked ahead blankly, as if I was stupid.

Li Hai, who was sitting opposite, saw that my face was gloomy, and guessed that something was on my mind, so he added a piece of mutton to my bowl and asked, "What is going on, how do you see that you are depressed." ”

Li Hai is very good at observing words, if I say it's okay now, he will definitely be suspicious, rather than telling him the truth, it is better to tell him a casual lie, than to tell him what he really wants to do.

"My mother was not feeling well two days ago, and went to the hospital to check that she was going to have an operation, and the operation cost 200,000 yuan, and I took the money in the morning and sent the money back, and my father called to ask for safety, nothing happened." I looked at Li Hai and said calmly.

Li Hai looked suddenly enlightened after hearing this, and said: "No wonder I see that your mood is wrong, is this money enough now, if it is not enough, tell me, I haven't talked to anyone in the past two years after graduation, and I have saved some money in my hand, if you use it, you can take it, if it is not enough, I will borrow some more from my parents, I can't take it out more, there should be no problem with 108,000 yuan." ”

Li Hai's words suddenly made my eyes red, and his serious appearance was from the bottom of his heart at first glance, without the slightest disguise.

When I graduated, there were eight of us in the dormitory, and we had to get together every year no matter where we were, but the only roommate I've seen since graduation was Li Hai.

Other people don't talk about meeting, even on chat software, they rarely come and go, and now there are not many friends like Li Hai who have heart-to-heart friends, and I can't pull him into the water, this matter is because of me, and it must not involve other people.

"Lao Li, I haven't worked in vain to make you a friend in this life, it's all in wine, I toast you!" As I spoke, I picked up the wine glass on the table and raised it to Li Hai, clinking glasses and drinking it all.

Maybe it's because I'm happy to meet a friend like Li Hai, or maybe it's because I've been too depressed in the past two days, anyway, I didn't eat a few pieces of mutton shabu, but I drank a lot of wine.

In the end, I drank unconscious, and I was under the impression that Li Hai helped me back.

When I got home, I vomited a few times and then lay down on the bed to rest, and for the whole afternoon I felt like I was lying on the clouds.

I don't know how long I fell asleep, but when I woke up, it was already dark outside the window, and Li Hai was sitting at the computer desk and starting the live broadcast.

I didn't bother when I saw him live broadcast, I subconsciously touched around with my hand, and suddenly found that my backpack was missing!

I suddenly woke up in an instant, sat up and looked at Li Hai, who was chatting with tourists, and asked, "Lao Li, where did you put my backpack?" ”

Li Hai was startled by my voice, and looked back at me: "You be quiet, what about my live broadcast, your voice will at least scare away three or five hundred tourists from me." ”

I didn't have time to talk to him, so I asked again, after all, the shroud was still in the backpack, and the shroud was the source of the whole thing, and it would be troublesome if there was no shroud.

"Who is rare for you to have a broken bag, it is hanging on the balcony, drinking so much wine, the backpack is full of vomit, I haven't moved the things inside, and I will put it on the balcony for you after taking it out." After Li Hai finished speaking, he turned his head and continued to chat with the tourists in the live broadcast room.

Hearing this, I immediately went to the balcony, where my backpack was hanging on a hanger, dripping with water dropping down.

As for the contents of the backpack, they were placed on the shoe rack on one side, including the black plastic bag containing the shroud.

I was relieved to see that the plastic bag had not been opened, picked it up, and went back to the house to take a look at the clock hanging on the wall.

At this time, it was already ten o'clock in the evening, and although a full day had passed since the appointment with the middle-aged man, I thought I should still go to Tianxiu Mountain Cemetery.

Now there is only one day left before the three-day limit that Shenhao said, and if I can't solve the mystery, maybe my little life will really be over.

I hid the black plastic bag and a fruit knife behind me, and then came to Li Hai's side and said: "Lao Li, I'll go out to do something later, I guess I'll come back in the middle of the night, if you sleep, put the key under the mat at the door, and then open the door for me in the middle of the night, by the way, borrow your satchel to use." ”

Without waiting for Li Hai to respond, I picked up the satchel hanging on the wall and quickly put the black plastic bag and fruit knife into it.

Just about to turn around and leave, Li Hai suddenly got up and grabbed my arm, and said in surprise: "It's more than ten o'clock, where are you going, you haven't stopped drinking so much wine, is it possible that you still want to find a little sister to relieve hangover?" ”

"What kind of waves, I have no money and no power, which little girl is willing to accompany me to wave, I will go out alone to relax, you don't care about me, hurry up and broadcast live, three or five hundred tourists are gone." I looked at Li Hai and quipped.

"What three or five hundred tourists, there are only one or two hundred people at the top of the sky, do you have anything to do, if you have something, I will accompany you on a trip." Li Hai looked at me worriedly and asked.

"It's really okay, you can just chat with your tourists." After saying that, I didn't wait for Li Hai to respond, then turned around and walked towards the door.

I was talking hard in the room just now, but after I went out, I began to feel a little uneasy in my heart.

Now he is facing not only the matter of the shroud, but also the old woman who hanged herself in red.

If she can slip a note into my pocket, maybe she'll be able to find where I live now.

I have to find a solution to her before she does, or not only will I not be able to save my life, but I will also drag Li Hai into the water.

When I was in a panic, I walked downstairs quickly, and just came to the door of the community and found that a taxi was parked at the flower bed, I didn't think much about it, and then looked at the dim direction of the cab and said: "Master, please send me to Tianxiu Mountain, hurry up, I have something urgent." ”

"Tianxiu Mountain? Isn't that a cemetery, what are you doing at that cemetery at night, is it difficult to go to worship? The driver asked as he started the car.

"It's not like I won't pay you for the car, what do you care about so much, hurry up and drive, you must get to the place before eleven o'clock!"

I was originally a little anxious in my heart, but when I was asked by this driver, I was even more angry, and my tone was a little tough.

The driver did not respond after hearing this, and stepped on the accelerator and drove the vehicle towards Tianxiu Mountain.

Since Tianxiu Mountain is not too far from the rented community of Li Hai, it is only about half past ten when I arrive at the cemetery.

When I arrived at the entrance of the cemetery, I paid the fare and was about to get out of the car, but just as my hand was about to pull the doorknob, there was a sudden click.

Following the sound, the driver actually locked the door, I couldn't help but be stunned when I saw this, looked at the driver in the cab and asked: "Master, what do you mean by this, is it possible that you are a black car?" ”

The driver smiled dumbly after hearing this, picked up the cigarette at the dashboard position, took out two of them, lit one by himself and handed the other one to me, and then smiled: "What a black car and a white car, what can send people to the place smoothly is a good car, brother, the second time we met is also a fate, you didn't smoke this cigarette last time, this time I gave me a face." ”

I hadn't thought about it before the driver had already handed me the cigarette in his hand, I subconsciously took the cigarette, and then glanced at it through the moonlight outside the car window.

When I saw the cigarette brand clearly, I was suddenly frightened, this cigarette was printed with the word red lotus, and there was a blood-red lotus next to it!

When I saw the cigarette sign, I immediately looked up at the driver in the cab, who was looking back at me with a cigarette in his mouth, and a strange smile on his lips.
