Li Qiuzhi seemed reluctant to talk more, and just said, "Anyway, I have always dreamed about him in the past few years, and I am almost suffering from nervous breakdown. Later, I tried to have several boyfriends, but I felt that each of them had his shadow, so I just stayed single."
He shrugged and smiled: "People say that being single is good for safety."
Baili Xin: "..."
The two chatted and talked, and unknowingly came to the outside of the monitoring room.
There were already people in uniform waiting outside. They were the staff who had been on patrol last night.
When the person was led in, the staff looked at Li Qiuzhi with a somewhat inquiring look.
There was a large screen inside, showing images of the corridor.
As soon as they walked into the room, the police officer didn't bother to be polite with them and said directly: "Come and take a look. You screamed at around 2 a.m. yesterday. You said you went to bed at 10 p.m. The video content from 10 p.m. to 2 a.m. is all here."
"This is the play button." The flight attendant rubbed his eyes and pointed at the console. "This is fast forward, this is rewind, you can watch it yourself."
After saying that, he stood up and sat on the sofa next to him, lying on it comfortably and lazily.
The two looked at each other, and Li Qiuzhi sat on the operating table.
It’s four hours long, and there are two scenes, so only the corridor can be captured.
When ten o'clock started, there was no one else in the corridor except the occasional guard passing by.
If the time in the upper right corner hadn't been ticking, Li Qiuzhi would have thought the picture was paused.
Not seeing anyone special, Li Qiuzhi pressed the accelerator key.
For more than an hour afterwards, there was no other sound in the monitoring room except the "click" and "click" sounds of key operation and breathing.
After watching the video to the end, Li Qiuzhi turned around and looked at the staff member lying on the sofa, "Is that all? There are none outside the train? What if someone climbed in through the window?"
"Then let me ask you first, are your windows locked?" the staff member asked back impatiently.
Li Qiuzhi choked and stammered, "I don't remember whether it was turned off or not."
Staff: "You don't remember, then let me tell you, your window was closed. When we rushed into your room, you said someone broke in and I checked the window first. This window can only be closed and opened from the inside, and it cannot be operated from the outside. There is no sign of prying on your compartment door."
He sat up from the sofa and narrowed his eyes unhappily. "Passenger, although you are a first-class passenger, I still have to tell you that if you play such a prank again, I will call the police."
Li Qiuzhi's face flushed. He seemed to want to explain, but he didn't know where to start.
While the two were arguing, Baili Xin took the mouse, dragged it to a time point, clicked it, and then pressed the slow motion button.
When he reached a place, he quickly pressed pause and asked, "What is this?"
On the big screen, a large blurry black shadow appeared on the left side of the camera.
The staff member said nonchalantly: "It's nothing, just a black shadow on the camera. Sometimes trains run into areas with electromagnetic interference and this happens. It's very common."
"Okay, you've finished watching the surveillance video, so hurry up and leave." The staff member looked at Li Qiuzhi and said, "Sir, since this is your first time, we won't handle it. If you do it again, we will charge you for disturbing public order and send you to the police station."
"Let's go now. I haven't had a rest all night because of your matter. I need to sleep."
Li Qiuzhi's face turned pale, he stuttered "oh", and walked out of the monitoring room with Baili Xin in a daze.
Baili Xin: "What's wrong with you?"
Li Qiuzhi wiped his face and said, "This tie wouldn't appear out of thin air. If it was taken by a person, it would be ok, because it means it was man-made. But what
Isn’t it even weirder that they didn’t take any photos? "
After saying that, he shook his head and said, "You have to believe me, that tie is really not mine. I haven't worn a tie at all in recent years. Someone really put it in there. It wasn't a prank of mine."
Li Qiuzhi's mental state was not normal, Baili Xin comforted him and sent him back to his box.
When the person was sent back, Li Qiuzhi had calmed down like boiling water that suddenly cooled down. He didn't say a word, but just sat on the sofa and sighed.
Baili Xin saw the camera standing by the window. He walked over to take a look and found that the camera's start button was showing a red light. The camera was actually working. Seeing this, he asked, "When was this camera turned on?"
Li Qiuzhi turned his head woodenly, his hollow eyes gradually focusing: "Ah, I was chatting with you guys for a while when I was debugging the equipment yesterday, and I forgot to turn off the equipment."
Baili Xin: "You mean this camera is always recording? It's facing the window, is it possible that it captured something? How long can your camera record?"
Li Qiuzhi: "It can shoot about 200 hours in total. You are right. It should have been recorded."
Baili Xin: "Then open it and take a look?"
Li Qiuzhi stood up from the sofa and said, "I'll do it."
He skillfully took out the memory card from the camera and connected it to the computer in just a few steps.
The screen of the player went black for a few seconds, and then the picture appeared again.
The picture started playing, but Li Qiuzhi took two steps back.
Baili Xin: "What's wrong?"
Li Qiuzhi looked embarrassed, "I suddenly don't dare to look at it."
Baili Xin: "Then why don't you watch it? I'll help you watch it?"
Li Qiuzhi hesitated for two seconds, gritted his teeth and shook his head: "No, although I am scared, I still want to see it. I want to know where the tie came from."
The camera has a recording function, and the lens is always facing the window. Even if they do not appear in the camera, what they say during the day is clearly recorded in the picture.
Li Qiuzhi kept fast-forwarding, and soon the scenery in the camera changed from day to dusk, and from the beautiful dusk to pitch black.
There were rustling footsteps, as well as Li Qiuzhi's own humming and phone calls.
Li Qiuzhi received a call at around eight o'clock in the evening.
Baili Xin was just about to listen to what Li Qiuzhi said on the phone, but Li Qiuzhi's face changed slightly, and he quickly pulled back a long way.
In the end, he only heard a few scattered words.
“Is it really okay to do this?”
"Okay, I believe you, I hope it works. I'll be at Zangshan in three days, see you then."
"Oh, I don't want to either, but people can live happier if they are a little selfish. If this continues, I will collapse."
"Yeah, thank you for your understanding. Goodbye."
Baili Xin cast an inquiring look towards Li Qiuzhi.
Li Qiuzhi rubbed his neck and blinked at Baili Xin. "My friend, in addition to traveling to take photos this time, I also made an appointment with him to go and play with him, which is equivalent to a business trip. I can't let the client know that I'm being lazy. I'll delete this video later."
The camera recorded the sounds of a door opening and a toilet flushing, followed by a long period of silence.
Baili Xin: "What are you doing now? Taking a shower?"
Li Qiuzhi recalled, "Yeah, that's right. After I finished the call, I went to take a shower, and then I lay on the bed and checked my phone."
As he was speaking, the picture shook left and right twice, and the lens tilted slightly, as if someone accidentally bumped the camera from behind, causing it to shift slightly.
However, the angle is very slight and it is difficult to notice if you don't look carefully.
Baili Xin looked at Li Qiuzhi calmly.
Li Qiuzhi didn't know whether he noticed it or not. His expression was normal and he didn't react at all.
Then, an extremely faint sound was heard from the camera.
The sound was very small, almost like the sound of the wind.
“Swish.”
“Swish.”
The floors of first-class carriages are paved with high-end wood, and any sound falling on them will be particularly loud.
And the sound is a bit like the sound of cloth being dragged across the floor.
The sound itself is not scary, but if it comes from an empty room that should be empty, it will suddenly give people goose bumps.
Sure enough, Li Qiuzhi's face changed drastically.
The sound echoed in the room for several minutes before it stopped. Then there was the brief sound of the door opening. Li Qiuzhi walked out of the bathroom humming a song and got on the bed.
Another hour passed, and the light in the camera suddenly dimmed. It was pitch black in front of me, and I could only vaguely see the mottled shadows of trees and mountains outside the window. At eleven o'clock, the "swish" sound sounded again.
After a while, there was the sound of a quilt being lifted, followed by a soft sigh in their ears.
It was a very light sigh, but to Li Qiuzhi it sounded like a loud thunder, and instantly all the blood color faded from his body.
Li Qiuzhi stood up from the sofa with a "swoosh", his pupils contracted, his whole body trembled uncontrollably, and an expression of horror appeared on his face.
After a long while, he squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "It's him, Zhao Ming."
Baili Xin: "..."
He did not ask any further questions, but continued to watch the surveillance video until the lights in the room turned on and Li Qiuzhi let out a scream.
There were a lot of footsteps outside, and the flight attendant's powerful voice of control was heard.
Li Qiuzhi covered his mouth, staring at the double bed in front of him with horror, and muttered in a low voice: "He... slept in the same bed with me last night?"
The voice was very low, and it was unclear whether he was talking to himself or to Baili Xin.
Baili Xin poured a cup of hot water for Li Qiuzhi. Li Qiuzhi paused for a moment and grabbed Baili Xin's hand, "You, don't leave, stay with me."
Li Qiuzhi was probably desperate and tried every possible means. In panic, he grabbed Baili Xin's hand, but when he saw his face clearly, he was shocked again. He let go of his hand instantly and stepped back.
There were a lot of instruments on the ground behind him. As a result, his foot tripped and he stumbled to the ground. His eyes rolled back and he fainted.
This really scared me to death.
Baili Xin had no choice but to put the man on the bed and then walked to the computer to watch the rest of the video.
Thinking that he didn't need to worry about Li Qiuzhi's viewing speed, Baili Xin directly pressed the fast-forward button and quickly watched everything that happened later.
The lights in the box were on.
Li Qiuzhi's hurried pacing was heard for a while, and then he started to make a phone call. It was around 2 a.m., and the person on the other end probably fell asleep, so he didn't answer Li Qiuzhi's call at first. Li Qiuzhi was so angry that he cursed several times into the phone.
Because he couldn't see the camera, Baili Xin could only imagine the scene in his mind based on the sound. Later, probably because of Li Qiuzhi's perseverance, the call was finally connected. The moment the call was connected, Li Qiuzhi shouted anxiously: "He seems to be really obsessed with me!"
Because the speakerphone was not turned on, Baili Xin could not hear the voice on the other end and could only hear the voice from Li Qiuzhi's side.
"I'm sorry, please don't be angry. I was just too scared. After thinking about it, I could only find you. Master, please, only you can help me. What should I do?"
"A tie appeared out of nowhere on my desk. The only person in the world who would give me a tie is my ex-boyfriend."
"Yes, I locked it in the box and never opened it."
"Okay, okay, I won't open it."
"You told me to hold on, but I'm afraid I can't hold on. I'm so scared. He can give me a tie today, and he might take me on the road tomorrow. I'm afraid I don't even know how I'll die.
I don’t know. Master, please save me.”
"Diamond Sutra... Oh, oh, okay, I will recite the Diamond Sutra later."
"Thank you, Master."
The phone was hung up, and then there was the sound of something rummaging.
The sound of pages turning was heard, and Li Qiuzhi began to recite the Diamond Sutra.
He recited for a while before his voice gradually became softer and he became sleepy.
After a few minutes, the chanting disappeared and snoring was heard in the room.
There was nothing unusual afterwards. Li Qiuzhi woke up in the morning, and then heard the sound of cloth rubbing against each other while getting dressed, and then the sound of the carriage door opening.
Baili Xin looked at the time. It was almost time for him to meet Li Qiuzhi. Li Qiuzhi should be on his way out to check the surveillance cameras.
He watched the video at a faster speed, and there was nothing special about it. After watching the video, Baili Xin scrolled back to the part that Li Qiuzhi had forcibly dragged over, leaned back in his chair and began to listen.
"Master, I'm already on my way to Zangshan."
"Yes, that's right. I'm taking the train No. xx-4849. I'll be in Zangshan in three days."
"I listened to you and brought everything with me."
"Yes, yes, you are telling me that I shouldn't have treated him like that before. But I had no choice at the time. I didn't have much money and couldn't afford so much funeral expenses."
"I had no bad intentions at the time. I just wanted to return to my roots. Who knew he would linger around like that?"
"I will listen to your advice.
I want to go to the temple and offer him a longevity tablet, hoping that he can practice hard in the temple, achieve enlightenment and become a Buddha, and stop bothering me."
"Yes, yes, okay, I understand. I will go to the temple to find you as soon as I get off the car. Thank you so much, Master."
What followed were the last few words that Baili Xin heard at the beginning.
Baili Xin dragged the scroll bar to the place where Li Qiuzhi saw when he was unconscious, stood up and walked around the room, his eyes gradually sweeping over the luggage that Li Qiuzhi brought.
Bring something.
What is it
The ashes should have been dealt with long ago, so they are Zhao Ming’s relics
Baili Xin swept his eyes across and finally stopped at the suitcase where Li Qiuzhi was standing in the corner.
Just when he was about to look around to see if he had found anything, a sudden horn sound came from outside.
"Hello, dear passengers."
"We will arrive at the next stop - Jingchuan Station in five minutes. The train will stop at the station for half an hour. There will be some bumps in the next few minutes. All passengers, please take your seats and fasten your seat belts."
The speaker was so loud that Li Qiuzhi, who was lying on the bed, frowned and his eyelashes and eyelids began to tremble.
Seeing that Li Qiuzhi was about to wake up, Baili Xin had to give up the idea of searching for the suitcase.
He found a sofa and sat down. After a while, Li Qiuzhi opened his eyes and sat up in confusion, "What happened to me?"
Baili Xin: "You just fainted, and I took you to the bed. You weren't unconscious for long, and we arrived at Jingchuan Station soon."
"Are you okay? Do you want me to call a doctor for you?"
Li Qiuzhi glanced at the quilt with a complicated look, rubbed his temple and sat up, "Thank you, but it's okay."
Baili Xin: "If you are okay, I will leave first. I have been out for a while, and my family will be worried."
"Wait, don't go." Li Qiuzhi called Baili Xin, "Can you stay with me? I don't want to be alone."
"An old-fashioned way of chatting people up." The carriage was suddenly pushed open, and Dijia's stern face appeared at the door. "If you don't want to be alone, go to the conductor and change seats to the middle or economy car. Baili Xin is not obligated to stay here with you all the time."
His face was cold enough, but his voice was even colder.
Baili Xindu
I felt like bits of ice were poking at my face.
Under the oppressive gaze of Dijia, Li Qiuzhi shrank his neck and dared not say another word.
When the cold gaze turned to Baili Xin, Baili Xin felt guilty for a moment.
But Dijia soon felt the coldness in his eyes, and only said two words reluctantly: "Let's go."
Baili Xin looked at the suitcase with some regret, and quickly followed Dijia away.
…
As soon as the door of the carriage closed, Baili Xin was about to apologize, but Dijia, contrary to his usual behavior, did not dwell on the topic. "We will arrive at Jingchuan Station soon. We will have a half-hour break. Are you feeling a little bored in the train? Do you want to get off and take a walk?"
Baili Xin: "I'm sorry, I was in Li Qiuzhi's room just now because..."
Dijia interrupted Baili Xin's voice: "It's okay, it's definitely not your fault. I won't misunderstand you, it must be Li Qiuzhi who used some tricks. So, do you want to go down and take a look?"
Baili Xin blinked.
The human Emperor in this copy is not like Emperor at all, and tolerance has reached its limit.
If it were any other Emperor, seeing him with others, he would immediately rush over like a dog to claim his territory.
Moreover, I have been with him for such a long time, and he has never taken advantage of me!
If it weren't for the appearance of Black Mist Emperor, he would even think that they had entered the 30,000-year itch. This bastard was no longer interested in him.
The Emperor in front of him has "benevolence, righteousness, propriety, and wisdom" engraved in his bones.
Baili Xin: "Okay, let's go for a stroll."
Jingchuan Station is a small station. After the train stopped, Baili Xin saw people getting on the train one after another.
Looking at the backs of the people getting on the bus, Baili Xin wondered if one of them was Li Cangshan.
Jingchuan Station and X City Railway Station have similar decorations, and there is nothing new. They finished their shopping after a while, and Baili Xin bought some fruits and snacks on the platform, and boarded the train ten minutes before departure.
After having lunch in the carriage, Baili Xin started to walk around again. He searched for a long time in the carriage and finally found Zhou Guang in the corner of the aisle of the economy car at the back.
Zhou Guang was chewing on a compressed biscuit. He looked up and saw a bowl of hot beef noodles being served to him. He looked up again and saw who was coming. His eyes suddenly lit up. "God Xin?"
Baili Xin: "I got it from the food truck. It's soaked at the perfect time. Eat it while it's hot."
Zhou Guang didn't hesitate to take the beef noodles and started eating. "God Xin is really thoughtful. I thought I would have to eat compressed biscuits and drink cold water for the next three days. This train is heading north and the weather is getting colder. Even if I don't catch a cold, I will feel uncomfortable."
From their current position, they could see the two carriages behind them. Baili Xin glanced at the carriages through the glass and asked, "Did you receive the mission yesterday?"
Zhou Guang swallowed a large piece of beef and said, "I got it. After I separated from you, I met a family. They seemed to know me, no, the role I played. Seeing me was like seeing a ghost."
"I secretly followed them and found that they entered the first-class carriage. Even if you didn't look for me, I would have planned to look for your Xin Shen. I probably need your help."
Baili Xin nodded, "What is your mission?"
Zhou Guang showed a subtle expression on his face: "Flying butterflies return to the forest."
Baili Xin: “?”
Zhou Guang sighed: "This is my mission, flying butterflies return to the forest, I haven't figured out what this sentence means yet."
"In order to get in touch with this family, I went to a restaurant this morning hoping to run into them. I didn't see them but I saw the ticket inspector from yesterday. It was too painful for me not to get a ticket. You are in the first-class carriage and it is easier for you to get in touch with them than it is for me. Perhaps by talking to them, you can understand what the word 'flying butterfly' really means."
"Okay." Baili Xin agreed.
Come, "Which car are they in?"
Zhou Guang: “A-7.”
"They are a family of three, a man and a woman, both in their fifties. They also have a son who is about ten years old. The parents are a bit wary, so you can start with the child. When I passed by them yesterday, I saw him playing with a Rubik's Cube, but he wasn't very good at it. You can start from that aspect."
Baili Xin remembered that he still had a Rubik's Cube prop, so he nodded and said, "Okay, no problem."
That Rubik's Cube prop was given to him by Song Yuantian. It's not entirely true to say that it was given to him by Song Yuantian. To be more precise, the Rubik's Cube was given to Song Yuantian by Dijia and then passed to him through Song Yuantian's hands.
When Song Yuantian held the Rubik's Cube, it was still a black square metal block.
It turned into a Rubik's Cube in my hand.
Tongmei couldn't identify what kind of prop this was. He had taken out the Rubik's Cube and played with it countless times, but in the end it never triggered any skills. In the end, this thing became a toy for him to pass the time.
I didn’t expect it to come in handy now. I don’t know if it’s a coincidence or a foreshadowing.
"By the way," Zhou Guang's voice pulled Baili Xin back to his senses, "I went to the two carriages at the back to check late last night." Transcoding has been serious recently, which gives us more motivation and faster updates. Please move your little hands to exit the reading mode. Thank you
