Chapter 24: The Coffin on Page 7
"My husband lost his temper several times over this and regretted not following the text message prompts to buy a lottery ticket. He tried to get in touch with the source of the text message, but the text message was sent through the system using computer software and could not be reached. He was in a bad mood and didn't have the heart to go to work for several days. ”
Qin Ruolan said as she spoke, her eyes turned red, she took a tissue from the table and wiped her tears.
Xu Mo took the opportunity to look at the table, there was a framed photo on the table, the photo was a group photo of Qin Ruolan and a man, the background of the photo was on the beach, the two were standing on the beach, their backs to the sea, Qin Ruolan in the photo was three or four years younger than now, wearing a white gauze skirt, holding the man's arm.
Judging from the height comparison between the two, the man is about 1.8 meters, wearing a blue suit, his age looks about the same as Qin Ruolan, and he looks quite handsome.
"Is this your husband?" Xu Mo then asked.
"yes. Qin Ruolan nodded, stretched out her hand, and gently stroked the face of the man in the photo, with a look of nostalgia on her face, "This was taken not long after I met him." ”
Xu Mo waited for her mood to feel a little better, and then turned back to the original topic, "What happened later? Did your husband contact the source of that text message?"
"Nope. Qin Ruolan shook her head, "He tried several times, but he couldn't get in touch, but ......"
She changed her tone and continued, "A few days later, that text message contacted him again. ”
Xu Mo let out an 'oh' and asked, "What does the text message say?"
Qin Ruolan responded: "No, the content of this text message is the stock index change of a listed company, and within three days after my husband receives the text message, the stock price of that listed company will... I can't remember exactly, but my husband didn't tell me in detail, and it seems to be going to go from more than one piece to more than five dollars. ”
After a pause, he added, "I never cared about stocks, so I don't know what I mean." ”
Xu Mo explained: "If the content of this text message is true, I bought the shares of this listed company in advance according to the prompts of the text message, and sold it three days later, I can earn about four yuan for each share I buy, and the income is three to four times that of the investment." ”
"yes, that's what my husband said. Qin Ruolan echoed.
Xu Mo then asked, "Later, did your husband buy it?"
"Bought it. Qin Ruolan replied, "At that time, all the family's savings added up to about 100,000 yuan, which was saved by his and I hard work in the past few years, and this batch of money has been stored in the bank and has never been touched." Originally, he planned to take it out at once and buy all the shares of that listed company, but I was worried that the text message was a lie, and if he lost it, wouldn't all the hard work of the past few years be gone?"
"And this kind of pie-in-the-sky good thing, no matter how you look at it, it seems to be a lie, otherwise, why did this kind of good thing fall on our heads?"
"My husband scolded me, saying that I didn't know how to get the winning numbers in the lottery, so what's the use of lying to us?
"I don't know what we have to deceive, but everyone is not related to each other, there is such a good thing, why should he tell us?"
"My husband was moved by my words and hesitated, but then he thought about it again and thought that maybe the person had made the wrong number, and he was going to send it to someone else, but the number was wrong, and he ended up sending it to him. Don't miss it, if you miss it, you'll never see it again. ”
I didn't agree anyway, so the two of us got into an argument. I asked him, 'What if I lose it?' and he said, 'How can I pay it?' and I said, 'What if?'"
"We have known each other for so many years, I can still feel his psychology, he has always been cautious, otherwise, buying a lottery ticket will not be counted, so I can see, although he said that he will not lose, in fact, there is the same worry as me, listened to my words, hesitated again, but he just hesitated for a while, then gritted his teeth, and replied to me: ' If you lose it, you lose it, it's a big deal to start all over again, this is an opportunity, if you miss it, with the salaries of the two of us, when will you be able to afford a house in this city?"
"After I listened, I knew that he was ruthless, and it was useless to persuade him, so he had to talk to the child, 'Since you have decided, I will not stop you, since I chose you, I should follow you all the way, now that the children are there, you suffer, I should suffer with it, and after the big deal, let's earn it together." He's only three months old, and we're not afraid of hardship, so can we watch our children suffer?'"
He listened to my words and hesitated again, and I knew that the child's affairs had touched him. After thinking about it again, he decided to keep half of his savings and take 50,000 yuan to buy the company's shares. ”
"What happened later?" asked Xu Mo.
"Later?" Qin Ruolan repeated, and continued: "Three days later, the stock of that listed company really rose as stated in the text message, and he threw out the stock he bought, earning a total of more than 167,000 yuan. That night, he was drunk, crying, laughing, scolding this social injustice, he and I worked hard, worked every day, and in four years, we only saved 100,000 yuan, and he invested 50,000 yuan according to the prompt of a strange text message, and in three days, he earned back more than 160,000 yuan. ”
After the end, he came to a conclusion that the so-called stock market and lottery tickets are manipulated by someone, cheating stockholders and lottery players of their money and making a fortune themselves. When I heard this, I was afraid that he would be cynical because of this, and I became more and more worried. ”
The next day, he began to try to get in touch with the person who sent the strange text message, and in one day, he sent thousands of text messages out of the country, knowing that he couldn't get in touch, he still kept sending them. On the fourth day, the person who sent the text message finally contacted him again. ”
"What is it this time?" Xu Mo asked again.
Qin Ruolan didn't think about it, so she said, "It's an address." ”
"Address?" Xu Moqi said, the result was beyond his expectations.
Qin Ruolan said: "The owner of the text message asked him to go to that address." ”
"Did he go?" Xu Mo then asked.
"I went the day I received it. This time, Qin Ruolan's answer was as he expected.
Could it be that her husband disappeared at that time? Xu Mo's heart tightened, and then he asked, "Do you know where that address is?"
Qin Ruolan shook her head and said, "I don't know what to do, I asked him, but he didn't tell me." ”
When Xu Mo heard this, he suddenly felt disappointed in his heart, and then said, "Is it that after going to that place, your husband disappeared?"
Qin Ruolan's answer once again surprised him, "That's not it, after he went, he came back that night, but after he came back, he said excitedly that he was going to go out once." ”
"Could it be that he is missing..."Xu Mo did not continue halfway through his words.
Qin Ruolan understood what he meant, her expression was gloomy, and she nodded sadly.
Xu Mo asked again: "Where did he go, do you know Lu Dao?"
Qin Ruolan shook her head again, "I don't know what to say, he won't tell me anything." Then he sighed, "If he had told me in advance, maybe it wouldn't be like this, there would be no news at all." ”
Xu Mo bowed his head and was silent, thinking of his parents again, his parents also disappeared suddenly, and there was no news left. The reason for the disappearance is also unclear, but in his mind, it should be different from Qin Ruolan's husband.
Qin Ruolan then sighed.
Xu Mo glanced at the child she was holding, and remembered the hint of the Book of Revelation, and couldn't help but think: "Could it be that the reason why this child appears in the Book of Revelation is not because he is in danger, but because it is related to his father's disappearance?
Clueless for a while, he said to Qin Ruolan: "Don't be too sad, the child's father, maybe... Didn't go missing, just for a while... There's no way to contact you for a while. When I said this, I didn't have much confidence in my heart.
Qin Ruolan smiled bitterly, her smile was indescribably bitter, and she said sadly: "I also hope that this is the case, but I know that he was set up by someone and deceived somewhere." I don't know what that person wanted to lie to him, but since he deceived him, he would never let him come back. I think... After all this time, he may no longer be there. ”
As he spoke, his eyes turned red, and he couldn't help crying, holding his forehead with his hand, and quietly wiped away his tears.
Seeing this, Xu Mo didn't know what to say, and when Qin Ruolan calmed down a little, he said goodbye and left, and returned to his room.
As soon as he returned to his room, he took out the book of revelation and flipped it back, trying to see what was behind the child, and if he could find some connection.
Since his last experience on the mountain, he has always been resistant to the contents of the Book of Revelation, because what it implies are uncontrollable disasters, and most of these disasters would not have happened, and it is precisely because he read the Book of Revelation and pushed it that the result happened, like an unchangeable fate in the dark.
He had seen a story about foreknowledge before, about a man who had the ability to foresee, and suddenly one day, he had a premonition that he would be killed by his best friend, so he tried everything to kill his friend, but he was killed by his friend instead.
The ending of this story is a tragedy, and the reason for this result is his ability to foresee, if he did not have a premonition that he would be killed, he would not have planned to kill his friend, and if he did not kill his friend, he would not be killed by his friend.
It is precisely because he has the ability to predict that he will be killed by his friends and kill his friends that he has caused such a result.
And judging from the cause and effect of what happened in Kitayama, it is exactly the same as this story.
Therefore, after Xu Mo returned, he was always in awe of the Book of Revelation and never read it again. At this time, the disappearance of the child's father was involved, and the disappearance of his father may have a certain connection with the disappearance of his parents, so he couldn't help but open it.
On the seventh page of the Book of Revelation, there is a coffin.
