Chapter 354: Assault (6)
Zhong Minghua was shocked again, and after slowing down the car, he twisted his head and looked left and right.
"What the hell is going on today? Are all the road closures here? ”
Zhong Minghua recalled, but he was usually busy with work, socialized a lot, and had to take time every day to care about his son who was far abroad, but he didn't have the habit of watching the news every day. That is, holidays such as National Day, plus the major events of international conferences, will let him see it inadvertently. When he was driving, he didn't have the habit of listening to traffic radio. He is already familiar with the way to and from work. If he is entertaining, he will also bring his secretary, or Manager Liu and other subordinates, so that he will not be driving at that time, and he will not need to care about the road conditions.
Thinking about it, if he needed to close a large area of the road because of some construction, he would most likely miss the information.
Zhong Minghua looked at the side of the street.
Forget if there are no vehicles, there are not even pedestrians on the road. There was not a single waiter in the shops along the street. But the lights in the shop are all on......
Zhong Minghua was suspicious, but he couldn't understand what was going on.
He only felt strange, and as soon as he used his brain, his mind turned to some strange things.
A cold sweat broke out in his back and he slammed on the brakes.
Sister Zhong was also shocked and panicked.
Zhong Minghua stopped suddenly, and she was so frightened that she almost screamed.
"Minghua ......," Sister Zhong trembled and called out to her nephew.
"Second aunt, I think we ......" Zhong Minghua couldn't continue. He didn't know what to do with them either.
Zhong Minghua had a vague conjecture. The guess has gone from vague to clear.
Although Zhong Minghua has no time to watch the news every day, there are always some things that will come to his ears.
Yaocheng is a place with good security, and that kind of gathering crowds to fight and gang fights has never happened in Yaocheng. For example, Zhong Minghua has never heard of the armed police surrounding a village and the police blocking a community. In addition, social incidents such as chemical spills and chemical plant explosions that require the evacuation of many people have not happened in Yaocheng. There are no such large factories inside or outside the city of Yaocheng.
If you want to talk about road closures, every year on the National Day, Yaocheng organizes festival tours, and some main roads will be blocked and vehicles are prohibited. Then there is the construction of a subway, or the sudden burst of a water pipe somewhere, and the city council blocks off part of the road, turning the two-way road into a one-way street, and so on.
Zhong Minghua's mind was messy, he thought a lot, and spread out his past experiences in his mind.
He felt like he had stumbled into the forbidden area.
He didn't hear the sound of drilling rigs and other construction machines, so now this place is either a chemical leak or some large-scale task from the police.
I don't know how this blockade is done.
It may be that the road was closed in a hurry, and the manpower was not transferred when the card was set up.
Zhong Minghua wanted to quit, but he didn't know where to retreat.
It's better to go back the way you came, or keep going.
Maybe they've already driven to the edge of the blockade, and after a little longer, they're out. It takes more time to go back the way you came.
Zhong Minghua thought about it and calmed down.
Sister Zhong didn't hear Zhong Minghua's words, and her spirit was still tense. Her nervousness intensified as the silence inside the car grew.
She stared at Zhong Minghua and shouted again tremblingly.
Zhong Minghua came back to his senses and smiled comfortingly at Sister Zhong.
Sister Zhong was relieved when she saw her nephew's smiling face, but out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of the car window behind her nephew.
The window of the driver's door is not big, because Zhong Minghua is blocking it, and Sister Zhong can only see a small half of the glass. Zhong Minghua's figure is reflected on the glass.
Zhong Minghua was turning his head to look at Sister Zhong at this time. Sister Zhong should have seen the back of Zhong Minghua's head on that piece of glass.
What she saw was not the black back of her head.
She saw a side face.
If it was Zhong Minghua's side face, she would see a quarter or a fifth at most, but what she saw was half of the side face.
The incomplete reflection gradually completes the outline.
It was still a side face.
The facial features are ordinary, which makes people forget after seeing them.
That's not Zhong Minghua!
Sister Zhong's heart jumped to her throat.
The blood-colored brush on her face was gone, like a thermometer suddenly thrown into the freezer, the red lines in free fall.
Zhong Minghua also saw Sister Zhong's shocked face, and hurriedly reassured a few more words.
His voice did not reach Sister Zhong's ears.
Sister Zhong stared at the half of the glass.
The face of the man on the glass seemed to be attached to it, motionless, without blinking his eyes.
Sister Zhong felt that the light in the car suddenly dimmed.
She felt a gaze fall on her.
Eyes came from the back of the car.
There is no one in the back seat of the car.
She didn't look behind her, but she had a gut feeling that the space in the car had increased.
The space in the back seat of the car has become larger.
How much space can a four-seater car have in the back seat?
There shouldn't be that much space.
There shouldn't be anyone there.
Sister Zhong suddenly remembered the dream she had.
She had a nightmare when she walked out of the office building:
Zhong Minghua's back seat...... sat on Cheng Qian, who had been missing for many days......
Sister Zhong's body stiffened.
She instinctively wanted to roll her eyes and look at the back seat of the car.
Her eyes couldn't move.
Zhong Minghua was anxious, thinking that Sister Zhong was frightened and uncomfortable, so he leaned over and pushed Sister Zhong.
As soon as he got closer, he completely blocked Sister Zhong's sight.
The window glass was replaced by Zhong Minghua's face.
Sister Zhong saw her reflection in Zhong Minghua's eyes.
There was not only her in the reflection, but also the car door behind her.
There was something strange about the doors.
That height and curve is certainly not the passenger door of a private car, but the rear door of a van.
Sister Zhong didn't know why she thought of the van directly.
She only felt that the space she was in had indeed grown.
Originally, the back seat of the car had become larger, but now the front seat where she was getting bigger.
No, it's not that the front seat has gotten bigger, it's that she's in the back seat.
She got to the back seat of the van......
Sister Zhong felt a thrill in her heart, and her body, which originally seemed to be fixed, was suddenly able to move.
She looked to the side.
Cheng Qian leaned in the car, tilted her head, and looked at her.
Cheng Qian's face was lifeless.
Cheng Qian...... He's dead......
This is Cheng Qian's corpse!
Sister Zhong let out an exclamation.
"Second aunt!" Zhong Minghua raised his voice and used force in his hands.
He didn't think much about it for a while, he directly raised his hand and pinched Sister Zhong's person, and twisted Sister Zhong's arm again.
The pain in two places on her body woke up Sister Zhong in shock.
She was covered in sweat and looked left and right in a hurry.
She was still sitting in her nephew's car.
No van, no Cheng Qian.
She hurriedly straightened up, stretched her neck, and looked at the window behind Zhong Minghua. There was no reflection in the window. The light inside and outside the car makes it impossible to reflect on the windows.
It was like a nightmare.
Another nightmare.
Thinking like this, Sister Zhong wiped the sweat from her forehead.
It's a nightmare, it must be a nightmare.
Sister Zhong shed tears in fear.
She's not a little girl anymore.
Even when she was a teenager, she didn't cry because of nightmares. At that time, because the neighbor's boy was naughty, he scared her with insects and scared her into crying, and the other party didn't please her, and she didn't laugh at her, so she was twisted by her mother's ears, and when she came home, she was beaten by her father and cried. They were all children, and they had fun together the next day. Within a few years, she was able to chase cockroaches without changing her face, and when she saw bugs such as bed bugs, she could calmly catch them and throw them away, or directly kill them with slippers.
She didn't remember what the neighbor's boy looked like or where he went.
At this time, she suddenly remembered those things from her childhood.
Her guts are never small.
She seems to have developed a lot of courage.
As soon as that glimmer of courage came to her head, she shuddered.
Bugs and ...... There is still a difference.
But she wasn't afraid of ......
It's still that naughty boy, and he also made up stories to scare her, and she wasn't afraid that time.
Oh, she remembered wrong, he made up a story to scare her first, but it didn't work out, and then he used bugs......
What she had just seen was really ......
The expression on Sister Zhong's face kept changing.
"Second aunt, don't be afraid. I'm going to drive out. Zhong Minghua decided to go back the way he came. At least they drove all the way and nothing. Further on, who knows what lies ahead? If you drive into a dangerous area fenced off by the police or fire, it's troublesome.
Zhong Minghua turned the car around and said to Sister Zhong, "Are you cold?" What else is wrong with your body? When we went out, we went to the hospital for a check-up. Don't be troublesome, don't be afraid to use money. If a minor illness is not treated, it will not be good if it becomes a major illness. You can call your uncle. Tell my uncle. ”
He wanted to find something for Sister Zhong to do. Besides, no matter how good he and Sister Zhong are, they are only nephews, unlike their husbands.
Sister Zhong was in a trance and didn't listen to Zhong Minghua's words.
She lowered her head, not daring to look at the car, nor at the window.
All she was thinking about was Cheng Qian.
Cheng Qian is afraid to die.
Although she was thinking about "I'm afraid", she was already sure that Cheng Qian was dead.
These nightmares may be Cheng Qian's "dreams".
She and Cheng Qian have no grievances or hatreds, but who told Cheng Qian that the last person she saw was her? She may have seen the van that kidnapped Cheng Qian.
Sister Zhong didn't want to think like this, and she had to admit that the van she saw at that time must be the one that kidnapped Cheng Qian.
Cheng Qian in the car she saw at that time must be Cheng Qian herself.
If she had been more vigilant, she would have called Cheng Qian at that time, or called the police directly, and maybe she could save Cheng Qian.
But she didn't have the slightest suspicion.
Cheng Qian didn't return that night, and the people in her dormitory were all students of the same age as her, although they were all adults, they didn't have much experience in the end. And Cheng Qian is an adult, studying, interning, and being a local, how could her classmates suspect that something was wrong with her because she didn't return overnight? Perhaps, they went to bed early that night, and when they got up the next day, they found that Cheng Qian had not returned home at night; Perhaps, they found out that Cheng Qian did not return overnight when they woke up in the morning and did not see Cheng Qian, but Cheng Qian left the dormitory early and went to the internship.
The policeman who received Sister Zhong didn't elaborate on this. Sister Zhong can only guess.
Sister Zhong exonerated those little girls she had never met, and she also excused herself in disguise.
She actually felt a little guilty. Cheng Qian was dragged by her to eat, and she would return late that day.
She subconsciously ignored this.
She doesn't believe in Buddhism, nor does she worship Buddha, she didn't recite Amitabha Buddha at this time, but silently said to Cheng Qian in her heart: "Xiao Cheng, don't come to me." I know, I must have called the police for you at the time. I didn't expect that. If you really have something, there is a spirit in heaven, you give dreams to the police who handle the case, you give your parents dreams, you let them see the appearance of the gangster, and the license plate of the van. They will take revenge. I don't have that ability...... If I have the ability to do this, I will definitely avenge you. Sister Zhong, I'm old, how can I have that kind of ability...... You also look at the opening point and reincarnate early...... I'll burn some paper money for you in the evening, and I'll go to Guanyin Temple tomorrow, give you a pillar of incense, and ask the master of the underworld to arrange a good life experience for you, and become a rich man in the future......"
The words in Sister Zhong's heart, the more she said it, the more out of tune it became.
She was also panicked, and she said all the good things, just hoping to come in handy and let Cheng Qian stop looking for herself.
She really doesn't have the ability to help Cheng Qian do justice.
She is neither a policeman nor a Taoist priest, but she is willing to spend money to help Cheng Qian do things excessively, and it depends on whether Cheng Qian's parents agree.
The last time I saw Cheng Qian's parents, they were full of desire to get their daughter back. How could they believe that Cheng Qian was dead?
No matter how confused Sister Zhong is, she also knows that she will go to the door and tell her parents, "Your daughter is dead, let's do a ritual for her, let her go with peace of mind", that is going to be beaten. At most, she secretly burned some paper money and incense for Cheng Qian. That's it, Sister Zhong doesn't know what to do.
When her parents died, it was her older siblings who were busy. When her in-laws died, there were also uncles and sisters-in-law above to take care of these things. Neither side is superstitious, according to the one-stop service provided by the funeral shop, burn the paper money, walk around the funeral home, and finally bury the ashes of the old man in the cemetery near the funeral home, and it is over. After that, only every year Qingming, a large family went to sweep the tomb. Now advocating smokeless sacrifices, the cemetery management office does not let people burn paper money, they also follow the tomb sweeping army, people crowded, buy flowers and put them in front of the tomb. After sweeping the tomb, I have to take the juniors to the park in the suburbs for a walk and barbecue. If you want to talk about sadness, there are some, but like some people, crying hoarsely and broken, there is no such thing, the old people of both families are happy and mourning, and there is no pain when they leave; They also didn't ask monks to chant scriptures, ask Taoist priests to do things, there was nothing auspicious or anything like that, their family didn't do this, and they didn't pay attention to this. She didn't even know the names of her grandparents and great-grandparents who died earlier. Where the cemetery and bones were, her parents couldn't find them, let alone her.
Sister Zhong really didn't know what to do, so she could only promise first and say what she could think of.
If it still doesn't work, she can only ask someone to inquire again.
I don't know if it's a psychological effect, she feels that the cold air that enveloped her before has dissipated a lot.
She cautiously looked at the window, then at the back seat, and saw nothing out of the ordinary.
Zhong Minghua had already driven the car back onto the main road.
There are still no vehicles on the main road.
Sister Zhong relaxed a lot, which made Zhong Minghua also breathe a sigh of relief.
Sister Zhong looked out the window of the car and saw that the sunset had stretched the shadow of the car.
In the next lane, the shadow of the car is clearly visible.
Sister Zhong, who had already relaxed, stood up again.
The shadow of the car is clearly a van, not Zhong Minghua's car at all.
She looked in the rearview mirror.
The rearview mirror looked on the side of the car, and it was not the appearance of Zhong Minghua's car, but a van.
Sister Zhong only felt that a hand was holding her heart.
She stared in the rearview mirror for a long time and saw a figure in the rear window.
That, yes, it's Cheng Qian.
Sister Zhong closed her eyes.
Cheng Qian's ghost is still in her hands, and she is really eyeing her.
What did she do wrong?
But what did Cheng Qian do wrong?
Sister Zhong's eyes turned red.
She suddenly felt that she might be going to die.
Just like Cheng Qian.
It was good, but I was still thinking about the trivial things of life, for those interests, I counted it back and forth, and I had a gap with my life, I had resentment, and I almost quarreled, but in the blink of an eye, I was going to die...... Life is really impermanent.
Thinking like this, Sister Zhong's tears fell again.
