Chapter 182: A corpse entangled in water and weeds

Although I still can't tell if they're dead people or if they're just white-skinned.

But the phone was on their desk, and I was more or less afraid that they would take my phone away, so I kept my eyes on their table.

After all, this kind of half-sized boy can run faster than anyone else, and my body is so weak that I may not be able to catch up.

After waiting for about five minutes, the tall boy picked up his phone and dialed, but he didn't call his family, it sounded more like a call to his friend.

"We're by the river now, get dressed and come to us, my feet are entangled in something, and we'll be swept away by the water a little later."

When the tall boy said this, his voice was very low, but there was no one else in the tent, and I could hear it clearly.

For a moment, I couldn't tell if what he said on the phone to his friend was a prank or if it was true.

The phone was passed to another boy, who held the phone and suddenly cried: "Brother, you remember to tell our parents that I really love them, and I love you too." ”

Just said such a sentence, the other party seemed to be still saying something, it should be asking him a question or something, he had no way to answer, so he hung up the phone.

The tall man walked up to our table with his phone, returned it to me, and said thank you very politely.

When I took the phone, I deliberately touched his hand, which was cold, as if it had been soaked in the river for a long time.

It shouldn't be!

A child of their age, after swimming ashore and walking all the way from the river, should be warm.

Returning the phone, the two of them walked straight out of the tent.

At this time, the shopkeeper was still busy, or they asked for a barbecue, and they didn't even notice that they had left.

When the shopkeeper turned around with the barbecue, he found that the two children were missing.

The stall owner asked me a little anxiously, "Sir, did you see those two children?" They haven't paid for their meals yet! ”

I pointed outside: "Just walked out." ”

But when I followed my finger to look outside, the two children were long gone.

I was shocked, so I quickly stood up, walked to their table and smelled the two bowls of noodles they had just ordered.

The stall owner saw that my expression was wrong, and he also came over and sniffed it, and his face instantly turned pale.

"What's going on! You have also seen these two bowls of noodles, I brought them here after they were freshly made, why is this kung fu so rancid?! ”

I reached out and patted him on the shoulder: "It's not your problem, I'll go out to find the two of them, it shouldn't be far." ”

Saying that, I took out the money and handed it to the stall owner: "Keep the noodles for me, I'll come back to eat them later." ”

What the hell is going on here?!

What was the conversation they had when they called their friend just now?

I ran out and walked along the river, and at this time a few boys in school uniforms also ran out of the homestay, and they also walked towards the river.

"Brother, have you seen two boys who are about the same age as us?" A child stopped me and asked me about it.

I nodded: "See, they just came out of the noodle shop, but as soon as they turned around, they disappeared, I was looking for it, they owed the stall owner money, and the money for eating noodles has not been paid." ”

"It's over, Brother Zhou, your brother must have been gone when he was swimming!" A child who looked like a thin monkey said to another tall man.

The guy named Da Zhou took the initiative to talk to me and wanted to know about his brother.

It turned out that his name was Zhou Wenhao, and he also had a younger brother named Zhou Wenqing.

According to his description, Zhou Wenqing was the short man I had just seen in the food stall.

Another tall man named Zhou Wenzhong was their cousin.

"My cousin took my brother and said he was going to the river for a wild swim, probably at eight o'clock last night, and there was no news from them until he called me. My cousin was on the swimming team at school, and he trained for hours on weekdays, so I didn't pay attention to it. But when they called me just now, I sensed something was wrong, so I called my roommate up and came out to look for it. What can I do? ”

Zhou Wenhao was so anxious that he was about to cry as he spoke.

"This trip was organized by me, and there was an accident, and I didn't know how to explain it to my family when I got home."

I sighed, knowing in my heart that something was wrong.

But I want to see people in life, and I want to see corpses in death, and now I haven't found anything, so I can't say anything.

"I lent them the phone just now, what did they say to you inside?" I asked.

Actually, I also heard a rough idea of what they just said, but I was afraid that there were details that I didn't hear, so I asked again.

"I had just woken up when I heard him say that his feet were tangled in grass and that he was now by the river. He also said that he might be taken away by the water if he was too late, and I didn't hear the rest. ”

Zhou Wenhao was in a hurry, and his speech lacked logic.

I steadied myself and walked towards the river.

I came here last night to put the lights on, and it was almost ten o'clock, and I didn't even see any children swimming here.

Maybe they already had an accident by then.

There is indeed a lot of grass by the river, but since they say that they have grass entangled in their feet, they may say that they are aquatic weeds.

Then you have to go to the river to find out.

But it's not quite dawn yet, and it's a bit dangerous to go on like this.

"So let's do it, I'll call the police first. The rest will wait for the police to come, they will probably send frogmen down to find them, I'll wait on the side first, don't worry. ”

As I spoke, I took out my mobile phone and called the police, who were in this village, and they were very fast.

While I was still checking the call logs, the police had already arrived.

Zhou Wenhao explained the situation to the police on the side, and I didn't find the record of dialing Zhou Wenhao from my mobile phone in the call record.

After learning what had happened, the police quickly sent frogmen to search and rescue them.

But by the time they found them, the two of them were already cold.

Indeed, as it was said on the phone, their feet were indeed covered with aquatic weeds.
