Volume 1 The Hidden Dragon in the Abyss Chapter 1 I Have a Coffee House
Early autumn September.
Dense clouds hung over the night sky of Hangzhou.
In the dark streets of the university town, only one café still shimmers.
In the store, Luo Mingzhang pushed a cup of steaming coffee in front of the woman:
"Yang Jie, I haven't seen you here for a long time."
The woman was wearing an elegant black hip-wrapping skirt, and her eyes were full of bloodshot eyes, full of anxiety and panic.
has short hair that shows a capable temperament, and it is difficult to hide the haggard face.
"Thank you!"
The familiar smell of coffee and the aroma seemed to make her feel a little reassured.
"Coffee is not suitable for drinking at night, I deliberately lowered the strength for you, otherwise you won't be able to sleep tonight."
Yang Jie's smile was more bitter than coffee:
"It's better not to sleep, you know, I've been open for several nights, and I'm not afraid to let myself fall asleep at all."
"What's wrong?"
"I suspect my brother...... No, he may not be my brother......"
Luo Mingzhang didn't speak, just looked at each other quietly.
"My brother is a sunny and cheerful person, and there are many girls in the school who like him, but lately he has become very strange and feels ...... It feels like a different person! ”
"Why do you say that?"
"His whole body became very gloomy, and sometimes I felt that he was always staring at me from behind, but as soon as I turned around, he immediately looked away."
"Could it be your delusion?"
Luo Mingzhang asked.
The woman shook her head:
"I don't know, sometimes I still hear strange noises in his room."
"Voice?"
"Just... It's like the screams of small animals, the screams of being torn apart, you know? And in the past few days, I have seen him use a knife to carve strange symbols on the floor and walls, and I can see that there seem to be some coagulated blood stains on the knife......"
Recalling these things she had encountered, Yang Jie squeezed the cup tightly with both hands, and she didn't even feel that her palms were red from the steaming coffee.
"I asked my psychiatric friend and he said that my brother's condition was a precursor to schizophrenia, but our family had no history of mental illness......"
There was unconcealable fear in her eyes:
"I'm really scared to stay with my brother right now, I don't even dare to go home, but I have to...... I can't leave my brother alone...... I'm really out of breath......"
Suddenly, the woman raised her head sharply:
"Luo Mingzhang, do you think there are any ghosts in this world?"
"Ghosts?" Luo Mingzhang said: "This is not like what a female doctor with a double degree in physics and mechanics would say. ”
"No, I'm not talking nonsense, I really think something happened to me, just the other day, I slept in the bedroom, but when I woke up in the living room, I don't know when I slept there...... One more time! I fell asleep on the couch in the living room, and when I woke up, I was actually lying in the bathtub...... I suspect it's my brother who is playing tricks, but he's not such a naughty kid at all, and he can't do it either...... I don't dare to sleep at night now, I'm afraid that once I do, I'll never get up again...... Tell me, are there any ghosts in this world?! ”
Luo Mingzhang looked at Yang Jie's expression and comforted:
"Yang Jie, listen to me, don't put too much pressure on yourself to think about those things that are ghostly. Maybe your brother just didn't figure it out...... You're also from that age, and you've lost a love or something, and you're older than the sky......"
The man's eyes glowed with a touch of brilliance, like a deep night sky and bright starlight.
Looking at this pair of eyes, Yang Jie slowly calmed down.
"yes, how could there be a ghost, I must have been under too much pressure lately."
With that, she walked out the door.
Luo Mingzhang picked up his coat and followed out:
"It's dark, it's not safe, I'll send you home!"
Requiem can only last for a short time, and you have to go with it.
Before going out, Luo Mingzhang tapped quickly on the mobile phone screen with his fingers:
"You can help me solve the task of the Northern Desert Demon Clan tonight, I have something to deal with!"
In fact, in this world, in addition to ordinary people, there are indeed extraordinary powers.
Luo Mingzhang and they have their own channels to take on tasks from official transcendent organizations, obtain bonuses and other necessary things.
In addition, many sects, cultivation families, and major demon clans will also find them when they encounter some thorny problems or inconvenient things.
Since ancient times, the world has never been black and white, and they are gray in between.
Yang Jie's home is in Fengjiang New Town, which is a well-known wealthy area in Hangzhou.
Came to the door of a luxurious villa.
Luo Mingzhang's eyes narrowed slightly.
Here, he felt a gloomy aura lingering in the room.
It seems that her brother may really have something wrong......
At this moment, Yang Jie's voice rang out:
"That...... Thank you today. ”
"What?"
"Thank you for sending me back today......"
Luo Mingzhang waved his hand indifferently:
"Don't be so polite, if you hadn't sent me to the hospital in time, I would have been cold......"
A few years ago, Luo Mingzhang had an accident, he fell on a rainy night, and every pore on his body was bleeding outward, and it was Yang Jie who sent him to the hospital.
Later, he was able to come back to life, and even doctors said it was a miracle.
"It's going to rain harder, why don't you come in and have a cup of tea and warm up."
He saw a trace of blush flashing on Yang Jie's face, and with her slightly depressed face, there was a strange charm.
In the middle of the night, inviting a young person of the opposite sex to come to the house is indeed easy to provoke people's imagination......
Before he could speak, a pair of jade arms wrapped around his neck, and the delicate curves were tightly pressed against his body.
"Luo Mingzhang, will you accompany me again?"
Luo Mingzhang felt a fiery breath hit his ears, and a faint fragrance lingered in his nose.
"Please, stay with me again tonight! All right? ”
He looked at Yang Jie, whose eyes were flowing like a silky mist, and his delicate red lips were getting closer and closer to him.
At this moment, there was a crisp "click".
The door opened.
Luo Mingzhang saw a teenage boy standing at the door with a stunned expression.
"Xiao Hao!"
Seeing the boy, Yang Jie bounced off his body like a frightened rabbit.
An awkward atmosphere spread among the trio.
"I'm going to make you a cup of tea!"
Yang Jie stroked the wrinkled clothes on her body and entered the room in a panic.
Luo Mingzhang glanced at Yang Jie's back.
Today she is extraordinarily proactive, and she is a little different from herself.
He knew that Yang Jie had always had a good impression of him, but she was a clean person, and without expressing her position, Yang Jie had always maintained a plausible relationship with herself.
Luo Mingzhang looked at the boy:
"Do you want to go out so late?"
He also had several encounters with Yang Hao.
The boy wore a tracksuit, carried a bag, and had a shallow smile on his face:
"Oh, I saw that my sister was not at home, so I made an appointment with my friend to go to the venue to play badminton."
This appearance is the appearance of a sunny boy in adolescence.
There doesn't seem to be anything out of the ordeal.
"Oh, then go ahead and leave me alone."
Luo Mingzhang said.
The boy didn't go out, but put down his backpack and sat next to him, his eyes still glancing at Yang Jie who was still in the kitchen from time to time, with a little vigilance.
"Brother Luo, you have to be careful of my sister!"
"Why do you say that?"
I saw Yang Hao deliberately move his position, leaned next to him, and whispered:
"Something is wrong with my sister, something is wrong with her. She's a very kind person, but the other day I watched her room torture small animals, and she brought several men home these days, but I never know when they left......"
Luo Mingzhang was stunned when he heard this.
Yang Jie's brother who had a problem in her mouth suspected that she was the one who had the problem.
Did all the men who didn't go out die here? She's deliberately trying to lure men home, and I'm one of them......
While speaking, Yang Jie walked over with a teapot.
The boy glanced at her, got up and went upstairs, and seemed unwilling to stay in the same place with her any longer.
The woman's face was slightly flushed:
"Luo Mingzhang, what happened just now, I just ...... Maybe I'm under too much pressure these days, and I want someone to accompany me, I hope you don't mind......"
Yang Jie leaned over to pour him tea.
Luo Mingzhang seemed to really smell a wisp of blood on her when the woman approached him......
"Ding Dong!"
Just then, the doorbell rang.
Luo Mingzhang looked at the door.
It's so late, who else is coming......
