Chapter 16: Fracture
Standing at the entrance of the hospital, Chen Qing saw Lu Mingcheng leaning next to the car and smoking a cigarette at first glance.
The light of the Starfire lit up his face, making his expression unusually pale in the darkness, like a smoke ring he had exhaled.
Obviously, Lu Mingcheng's mood at the moment is definitely not good.
Chen Qing pursed his lips and walked to Lu Mingcheng's car.
His movement alarmed his friends who were thinking, and Lu Mingcheng subconsciously pressed out the cigarette butt and threw it into the trash can next to him: "...... How are you in the hospital? ”
He looked Chen Qing up and down, and looked at the clothes on his body with some curiosity.
And Chen Qing said lightly: "It's nothing, there is something wrong with the body." ”
"It's okay now, the discharge procedures have been completed."
In the final analysis, it is excessive blood loss, which is not a serious illness, and it is good to take care of it.
ALS can't be cured, and blood loss doesn't need to be treated, so Chen Qing naturally left.
After saying that, he quickly changed the subject: "By the way, what happened?" I don't understand on the phone, what scared you to contact me in the middle of the night, and even drove over to pick me up? ”
As soon as this sentence came out, Lu Mingcheng's attention was successfully diverted from Chen Qing's hospitalization: "It's a complicated matter, just ...... Tut. ”
He scratched his hair a little irritably, and finally said, "Let's get in the car first, it's cold outside, so don't catch a cold when you are discharged from the hospital." ”
After leaving these words, he opened the car door and sat straight inside.
And Chen Qing also got into the car with him.
In the car, Lu Mingcheng described in detail what he encountered today.
"Didn't I go home after I was separated from you?"
Holding the steering wheel with both hands, Lu Mingcheng said: "Originally, there was nothing, I packed up and went to sleep directly." But in the middle of the night, something suddenly happened. ”
Speaking of this, his expression was a little pale, and the hand holding the steering wheel was slightly hard.
After considering the language, Lu Mingcheng finally spoke with difficulty: "In the second half of the night, I was awakened by the sound of knocking on the door. I thought someone was in trouble with me, so I got up and looked at the cat's eye. As a result, I didn't see anything in the cat's eyes, only a package lying on the ground. ”
"The package was tightly sealed, and there was no sender on it, so I didn't know who sent it. And I also remember that I didn't buy express delivery recently, not to mention that it is impossible for express delivery to the door in the middle of the night now. ”
Hearing this, Chen Qing turned his head: "So, you opened that package?" ”
Lu Mingcheng nodded a little sneeringly.
Through the rearview mirror, Chen Qing could see the ...... in his friend's eyes Frightened.
After hesitating for a moment, he continued to ask Lu Mingcheng: "So, was the package sent by Xu Xiangyang?" ”
After hearing Chen Qing's question, Lu Mingcheng subconsciously gritted his teeth.
His eyes visibly became frightened, as if the question Chen Qing had mentioned reminded him of some terrible scene.
On the empty street where there was no one and only one car, Lu Mingcheng's voice trembled slightly: "Yes, he sent it." ”
Inside that package was a postcard with Xu Xiangyang's name written on it. And in addition to the postcard, Xu Xiangyang also put a piece of his own in it......"
Own stuff?
Hearing this, Chen Qing's brows couldn't help frowning.
He always felt that Lu Mingcheng's tone seemed to scare him a lot with the things Xu Xiangyang put in the package.
Sure enough.
Holding the steering wheel tightly, Lu Mingcheng's words seemed to be squeezed out of his teeth: "He put his right hand in the package!" ”
"It was just cut off, and the right hand is still bloody!"
Chen Qing was shocked when he heard this: "Xu Xiangyang's ...... Right hand?! ”
That madman actually put a part of his body inside the package?!
After telling this incident, Lu Mingcheng's mood was obviously better: "Yes, his right hand, I remember it very clearly." I was dealing with him at the time, and I happened to see a symbol tattooed on his right wrist, and I was particularly impressed. ”
And the right hand in that package is exactly the same as the symbol on Xu Xiangyang's wrist. And the handwriting on that postcard is also completely consistent with Xu Xiangyang. I looked for what he had written before and compared them one by one, and confirmed that it was normal. ”
Lu Mingcheng: "Although it is not ruled out that someone imitates him, but ...... I think that being able to cut off a hand and sign his name is definitely inseparable from Xu Xiangyang. ”
Truly.
Chen Qing bowed slightly.
Regardless of whether that hand is Xu Xiangyang's or not, at least, being able to send it to Lu Mingcheng with such a lot of effort proves that the owner of that hand is absolutely deeply related to Xu Xiangyang.
But Chen Qing didn't understand one thing.
"That guy Xu Xiangyang, why did you send it to you?"
Chen Qing frowned: "Does he want to send his hand to your home pawn?" ”
Lu Mingcheng shook his head: "I don't know either." ”
"But I looked at that postcard, and it had a lot of people's names on it."
He coughed, "I counted, and there were about forty or fifty." And among them, my name is in the thirtieth place. ”
After hesitating for a moment, Lu Mingcheng finally said: "And I'm still on it, I saw your name!" ”
My name?
Chen Qing, who heard this, couldn't help but glance at Lu Mingcheng with some surprise.
“…… Are you sure? He asked.
And Lu Mingcheng nodded firmly: "You can't be wrong, your name is the last in the list, and there are three words up and down, just two words for you, which is very prominent." ”
Chen Qing, who received an affirmative answer, subconsciously grabbed the handlebar.
In the postcard sent by Xu Xiangyang, in addition to Lu Mingcheng, there is also his own name?
But why?
I almost forgot about this person before, if it weren't for Lu Mingcheng mentioning it today, maybe I wouldn't be able to remember it for the rest of my life......
Well?
As if remembering something, Chen Qing suddenly raised his head.
"Wait......" he muttered to himself.
Rank yourself in the ...... At last?
A thought crossed his mind.
Could it be that it was because he talked about Xu Xiangyang's name with Lu Mingcheng today that he was on that postcard? ?
If Chen Qing had thought that this speculation was too nonsense before.
But now, after seeing the ancient mirror and flame with his own eyes, Chen Qing has more calculations in his heart.
He is fully aware that the world is far less peaceful than it appears.
There is some abnormal power that has been hidden under the everyday.
Perhaps Xu Xiangyang's name is also a "trigger" similar to the copying of gold coins. After saying this name, Chen Qing's name was also imprinted on the postcard.
"But not necessarily, maybe someone is watching us. After hearing us say Xu Xiangyang's name, he gave us the severed hand. ”
Calming down, Chen Qing's eyes were gloomy: "But no matter what." ”
This thing has already involved itself.
It doesn't matter who is watching you, or if there is some supernatural force at work.
Chen Qing must solve it.
"It seems that after the investigation of Xu Xiangyang is completed, the speed of the ancient mirror will be accelerated."
Chen Qing thought in his heart: "I must prepare some offensive taboos, or control some kind of power. ”
Obviously, the real world is not safe either.
And before he can really recover, he needs to rule out some potential risk factors as much as possible.
"Take me to see it first."
Turning his head, Chen Qing said to Lu Mingcheng.
"I want to see those things first, and if they really have anything to do with me, they have to look at them carefully."
