Chapter Twenty-Five: The Devil Asks for His Life

Li Meng didn't seem to expect that her elbow would be so powerful, and when she saw me fall to the ground with a pop, she was frightened and looked at me in a panic.

I sat on the ground and looked up at her panicked expression, and for a moment burst into laughter.

"Are you okay, I didn't mean to......" Li Meng stepped forward and tried to pull me up, but I didn't have any strength in my body now, and I couldn't stand up at all, no matter how hard she tried, I still sat on the ground and didn't move.

Li Meng squatted in front of me with some worry, and when he saw my snot and tears, he was completely stunned: "Crying? Or laughing and crying? I hit your waist, not your head, stupid?! But I didn't do it! ”

I was still immersed in the fear and joy of my own death, and my mind went blank, and I didn't hear her muttering, but just looked at her in a daze.

"Qin Mu, don't scare me, I really didn't mean to hit you, who made you always rub oil, I'm used to it......" Li Meng lowered his head a little weakly, very worried.

"It hurts......" I sobbed and made a weak sound.

Hearing my wail, Li Meng's eyes immediately widened and he asked me with concern, "Where does it hurt?" ”

"It hurts here......" I held up my trembling hand and pointed to my waist tremblingly.

"Huh?"

Now Li Meng was really scared, and once suspected that she had broken my ribs, she hurriedly reached into my waist and carefully examined my ribs.

I grabbed the slender hand around my waist and smiled with tears in my eyes, "You still care about me." ”

Li Meng was stunned for a moment, his face was a little red, and then he reacted, and immediately replied to me with sharp teeth: "Okay, you are a big pervert, you dare to lie to me?!" ”

With that, she raised her fist to give me one more shot.

"Why am I here? …… Officer Qin? Officer Qin! A call from Zhao Long came from the living room.

……

I took Zhao Long back to the Ningzhou City Public Security Bureau for protection, and I was still in a state of confusion about what happened tonight, and my brain was blank. But in any case, the Public Security Bureau is definitely a safe place, no matter who the murderer is, he can't sneak into the Public Security Bureau to kill people.

Downstairs at Zhao Long's house, Li Meng and I sat on a bench on the side of the road, watching several police cars and more than a dozen police officers investigating the scene, carefully investigating the shadow of Zhao Long's house just now.

In the middle of the night, seeing the police lights flashing and the police officers busy, I suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of relief in my heart.

I can't imagine that a criminal policeman who has been in the industry for many years also needs to see the police and police lights to get a sense of security.

"Thanks to you today, if you hadn't arrived in time, I would have died." I let out a long sigh of relief, turned my head to look at Li Meng's side face, and said with a smile.

"Didn't you say to protect the witness Zhao Long, why are you still in danger?" Li Meng asked puzzled.

What happened tonight is so bizarre that Li Meng won't believe it when I tell it, even I feel like I'm in a dream now, it's all too unreal.

I thought about it, and I didn't know where to start for a while, so I asked her, "Why are you here?" Did you know I was going to be in danger tonight? ”

After listening to my words, Li Meng was obviously stunned for a moment, and suddenly said, "I didn't know you were in danger." ”

"Then why did you come here in the middle of the night to find me?" I frowned and immediately asked.

"You asked us to investigate Shen Hong today, we just found out that we want to notify you, and we can't get through to call you, so I rushed over according to the address you left for me." Li Meng told me why she came to me, and it turned out that she didn't know that I was in danger, but saved my life by mistake. But anyway, Li Meng came at the right time, and if she came a few minutes later, I would be in the headlines tomorrow.

"You throw away the phone, you don't need it anyway, you can't hear you when you call. You simply change to an old man's machine, the kind where the neighbors can hear the ringtone when they call, or ...... You write a letter in the future, raise some pigeons, how reliable is the flying pigeon! Li Meng had just finished speaking, when suddenly the words changed, and the yin and yang weird teeth pointed out and counted me down.

I smiled awkwardly, quickly changed the subject, and asked her, "Did you find Shen Hong?" Where is Shen Hong? Let's go find him! ”

"Don't look for it." Li Meng let out a long sigh.

"How?" I was stunned.

"Shen Hong is dead." Li Meng shrugged and said helplessly.

"What? He's dead?! When did you die?! I looked very surprised.

Li Meng looked at me in a daze, as if he didn't understand why I had such a big reaction, and said lightly: "I died a long time ago, I died eighteen years ago." ”

"Eighteen years ago?! And who is the shadow tonight?! "I was completely stunned, the news of Shen Hong's death made my scalp tingle, cold sweat flowed on my body, and the back of my clothes was soaked in an instant.

"Shadows? What shadow? Li Meng was also stunned and immediately asked me.

I will tell Li Meng all the things I encountered at Zhao Long's house tonight without missing a single detail. In the process of telling the reason, I tried my best not to add any subjective color, and said things plainly, but this incident still made Li Meng's eyes widen in shock.

"You mean, the person who appeared tonight is Shen Hong?" Li Meng was extremely shocked after hearing this story, and opened his mouth wide and didn't close it for a long time.

I nodded silently.

I thought that no one would reply to this bizarre story, but Li Meng chose to believe me unconditionally.

We looked at each other, but didn't say anything more, because this incident was so bizarre.

One question after another poured into my mind, past homicides, through the traces of the scene, the social relations of the deceased, find the motive for the killing, and let the chain of evidence close the case can be closed.

But at present, this case seems to have risen to the height of metaphysics, and many problems do not need to be thought about by ghosts, and they cannot be explained at all

Shen Hong died eighteen years ago, so who is the shadow?

Is it really as Zhao Long and Shadow said, it was Shen Hong who turned into a powerful ghost to ask for his life?

There are no ghosts in this world at all, so who is using Shen Hong's identity to take revenge?

Liu Yuzhou, Li Xiaojie, and Shi Yan died one after another, they all had nightmares in the past month, and they all died of suicide and accidents.

What happened tonight, I only saw shadows and heard voices during the whole process, how did shadows and voices appear?

How did the shadow control Zhao Long and make him commit suicide by jumping off a building in a sleepwalking state?

How did the shadow control my body and make me almost suffocate from respiratory depression?

The shadow can obviously kill me, why didn't he do anything to me after Li Meng knocked on the door, but let me and Zhao Long go? Do you really want to play with me?

At this point, I had countless questions in my head, and I couldn't answer any of them. If all this is not a dream, then it can only be solved by ghosts......
