"How dare you look up? You, put your head down for me!"

At three o'clock in the morning, the Wumen Police Station in Sioux City was noisy and complicated.

Drinking and fighting, rookies crashing cars, and clamoring there.

In the corner, Lian Xi and Su Jiao held their heads, lowered their heads, and squatted honestly.

Face, wall, think, pass!

The old policeman put his hands on his hips, paced behind them, took two steps, saw Su Jiao raised his head again, and immediately stared, "How dare you lift it?!"

Su Jiao: "..."

Woohoo, what's the matter with this horse!

Lian Xi on the side held his head silently: You can't see me, you can't see me...

The old policeman stared at the backs of the two young guys for a long time, then hummed and said, "You are fools when you are a policeman? Even a netizen committed suicide, just tell me who your netizen is, and which netizen does the software know? WeChat, QQ, or Tantan, Momo?"

Lian Xi was stunned for a moment, then turned back subconsciously: "Do you still know Tantan and Momo?"

The old policeman stared straight at him: "How dare you talk? Put your head down!"

Lian Xi: "..."

The old policeman snorted: "What we don't know now, every month someone is cheated of money and sex on these messy social software, and come to the police! Netizens commit suicide? Where do you say suicide. Just give us the ID of the bean sprouts live broadcast and let us find it? You say suicide, you commit suicide

"There are no chat records, no phone records.

"How did you tell you to kill yourself

"To dream?"

Two Hanhans: "..."

"Okay, okay, it's the middle of the night, Lao Li, what are you doing?" The old policeman in plainclothes came over and pulled his colleague with a smile, "It's estimated that two children are playing pranks. Look at these two young men. They are all students of Sioux City University, and one is still studying." After speaking, he said to Lian Xi and Su Jiao, "Okay, stand up and know your mistakes."

The two slowly stood up.

The old policeman glanced at them up and down, his eyes were kind, and his tone was very close: "What about him, it's normal to suspect you. You don't have a friend record, and you don't have a chat record. You just have a call record. Who can believe that someone on the Internet is going to commit suicide? If you tell us now that Andy Lau is going to commit suicide, why, we have to go to Hong Kong for the words of the two of you?"

The old policeman who was pulled was quite dissatisfied: "Hey, Lao Wu, why are you pulling me. These two children ran to the police station in the middle of the night to play pranks. I can't say a few words? I think these guys deserve a lesson!"

Old Wu said with a smile: "You don't apologize quickly, saying that you will never dare again."

Lian Xi and Su Jiao were very well-behaved: "We were wrong, we won't dare any more."

After writing the letter of guarantee, the two were sent to the police station by the old police and plainclothes police.

When he walked to the door, the plainclothes old policeman smiled and asked in a casual tone, "You guys, if you don't sleep well in the middle of the night, why are you running to the police station to play pranks?"

Su Jiao was about to speak, but Lian Xi stopped him.

Lian Xi looked at the kind-hearted old policeman in front of him. He glanced at it calmly, and in the next second, he pointed at Su Jiao: "Actually, it's my friend. He has a crush on this man whose ID is called a wanderer. I heard that he is also Sioux City people, I just want to see if there is a chance to meet. We are all students of Sioux City University, so there is no malice. I drank a little bit of wine tonight to strengthen my courage, and then I thought of such a foolish trick. "

Su Jiao brushed his head and looked at Lian Xi: "???"

fuck? !

Old Wu looked at Lian Xi, and after a while: "Did you still drink alcohol?" He moved his nose, "It doesn't smell of alcohol. Haha, okay, go home early!"

"We are young, have good liver function, and digest alcohol quickly." Lian Xi nodded: "Thank you, we're leaving."

Looking at the backs of the two young people leaving, the old policeman came over: "Deputy Wu, what are you looking at?"

Wu Fang, the deputy captain of the Sucheng Criminal Police Brigade, looked back and looked at his old colleague: "I didn't expect to pass by you after finishing the case tonight, and I would encounter such a strange thing."

The old policeman laughed: "You've been in the criminal police brigade, and of course you won't meet these wonderful neighbors. Let me tell you, this life, there are too many trivial and smoky things! Why, you and I sang a red face just now. One sings a white face, does it make any sense?"

"No."

"Okay, don't think too much, I think these two boys are drinking too much and messing around! Jiu Zhuang is cowardly. I asked my colleagues to check it just now, and neither of them recorded it. If you really don’t worry, I will send someone to Sioux City University tomorrow, and some of them are still in graduate school.”

Old Wu thought for a while: "Then no need, they are not bad people."

"How did you know?"

"Old criminal policeman's intuition." Old Wu pointed his finger at his head: "By the way, that one is called a wanderer. You and I will go to his house immediately."

The old policeman: "Ah, what's wrong?"

Old Wu: "I always feel that those two guys didn't lie. At least, they didn't look like a simple prank."

Naturally, Lian Xi and Su Jiao did not know the conversation at the door of the police station.

Sitting on Didi, Su Jiao was instantly angry as soon as the door closed.

"Fuck?! I have a crush on that man? I like girls on horseback! Soft girls! The black and straight ones!"

Lian Xi glanced at him lightly and reassured: "I just perfunctory that old policeman."

Su Jiao was taken aback: "Huh?"

Lian Xi: "The two of them sang together just now, and it looks like they are going to send us away, but if we say something that shouldn't be said, we may be taken down at the gate of the police station."

Hearing this, the Didi driver sitting in the front row looked up at the two of them.

Su Jiao wasn't stupid either, he understood when he said that.

but…

"Why do you say I have a crush on who? Can't you crush?"

Lian Xi said as a matter of course: "You lost in guessing."

Su Jiao: "..."

fuck? !

One time guessing fists twice? ?

Be yourself! ! !

***

When Lian Xi came up with this idea, he had a 90% chance of being scolded by the police, and a 10% chance that the policeman on duty was out of his mind in the middle of the night, and he really made a plan for them.

Of course, he also thought about the result of being scolded by the police, and the police themselves went to the homeless. But the possibility is not very high, even if they really go, it has nothing to do with them, so I don't think about it anymore.

The fact is that after the two left, Team Wu and Lao Li Zhen came to the door in a police car.

In today's world, it may seem difficult to find a person, but it is easy for the police.

It only took a few minutes for the old policeman to find the current address of the wanderer on the Internet.

When the two came to the door, it was already four in the morning.

The homeless, whose real name is Xu Lang, lives in a high-end apartment in Sioux City Park. The house prices here are said to be in the millions, and ordinary people simply cannot afford it.

While driving, Lao Li said, "The Internet is really scary. It's been more than ten years, and I still remember that female college student."

Team Wu looked at the old colleague: "You mean the one from Sichuan Province?"

"Yeah. Tonight these two children reminded me of that case again. You said a young girl who just went to college and suddenly disappeared. I remember that girl was the same age as my girl and was born in the same year. "

Wu Fang didn't say anything. After a long time, he sighed softly.

The murder of a female college student in Sichuan Province by human flesh.

Sixteen years ago, someone posted on the Internet that he had a terminal illness and wanted to see his ex-girlfriend who cruelly abandoned him for the last time. This ex-girlfriend's family was very poor, and he was able to go to school by working outside to make money. As a result, now the girl went to college and disliked her lack of education, so she kicked herself. He had no other idea, just wanted to meet before he died.

As soon as this post came out, netizens immediately exploded.

Is this girl still a thing

A few days later, the girl's home address, university information, QQ, email, and even her dormitory number were all revealed.

I thought it would be a story filled with righteous indignation and condemning the white-eyed wolf, but who knew that after a man came to look for a girl, he would stab a female college student to death!

It turned out that there was no terminal illness at all, and he did not work to earn money for his girlfriend to go to school. Everything was just made up by him to meet his girlfriend who broke up.

At that time, the Internet was not as developed and complicated as it is now.

No one thought it would end like this.

Old Li: "Here we are, a high-end community!"

The police car drove into the community, and the two policemen got out of the car and quickly got on the elevator to find the apartment where Xu Lang lived.

Keeping his professional habit, Team Wu pressed his hand on the clip on his waist.

Lao Li stepped forward and rang the doorbell.

Not long after, the door slammed open.

The dazzling entrance lights shone down from the inside, and the two policemen narrowed their eyes.

After getting used to the light, they could see the person standing inside the door.

His face was pale and his eyes were numb, but there was no doubt that it was the person they saw on the police station's intranet.

Old Li took the police officer's card: "From the police station, someone downstairs called the police and said that your home was stolen. Are you the owner?"

The man in the suit shirt lowered his head slowly, and after a few seconds, he opened his mouth, his voice was stiff, and he said word by word, "Well, I'm... the owner, the master."

Old Li frowned, he glanced inside the house, it was dark, and he didn't see the second person. He retracted his gaze, and his eyes fell on the scarred and solidified wound on Xu Lang's forehead: "What's going on on your head."

"Two days ago, hit and injured."

Team Wu suddenly said, "You're home alone in the middle of the night, why are you dressed so neatly?"

Xu Lang turned his head crunchly and looked at Team Wu. After a few more seconds, he replied: "Just, go home, at work."

Team Wu: "Do you mind if we go in and take a look?"

At this time, suddenly, the door behind Xu Lang was pulled open.

Lao Li and Team Wu immediately opened their eyes wide and held down their weapons.

I saw a young man with yellow hair walking out of the room. He was sleepy at first, but when he suddenly saw the policeman, he woke up instantly and opened his eyes wide: "Fuck, what's going on, Brother Lang, what's wrong?" He ran over, "Uh, uncle policeman, are you alright, what happened?"

Old Li: "There's a thief downstairs, we'll come and ask."

Huang Mao: "Ah? Thief?"

Team Wu: "Who are you from this owner?"

Huang Mao was stunned for a while, and replied obediently, "I'm an anchor, Brother Lang, that is, the owner. He is my manager. I came to Sucheng for a few days and stayed at his house."

Team Wu took out his mobile phone and asked, "What's your name?"

Huang Mao: "Uh... do you want to ask so carefully?"

Team Wu raised his eyes: "Huh?"

Huang Mao hurriedly raised his hands: "Wang Qiqing, my online name is Hydrogen. If you don't believe me, the police uncle, go check it out. I'm really an anchor, and I'm quite famous. I'm not lying."

Team Wu: "Take a look at your ID card." After a pause, he said to Xu Lang: "Look at your ID card too."

Hydrogen: "I'm going, I'm going, I know where."

Hydrogen quickly took the ID cards of both of them.

After checking and confirming that it was correct, Team Wu handed back the ID card.

Hydrogen asked cautiously: "Uncle police, is there any problem? We are all good citizens, and we never do anything like stealing chickens!"

Team Wu glanced at him: "Go in and have a look."

After entering the room to check and making sure that there was no third person in the room and there was no abnormality, Team Wu and Lao Li really left.

Before leaving, Team Wu looked at Xu Lang with a stiff face and said, "Rest early and lock the doors and windows."

Xu Lang slowly raised his eyes to look at him, the dark pupils were shrouded in the shadow of the light.

He gave a dull, silent "um".

The door closed with a click.

But the two old policemen went downstairs, and both felt that they were not feeling well.

Team Wu sat in the co-pilot and was silent for a long time.

"Tomorrow I'm on vacation, and I'll accompany you here during the day to see!"

Old Li nodded: "Okay, I'm free in the afternoon, let's come together."

Finally, the two policemen were sent away.

Hydrogen breathed a sigh of relief.

He had never seen this battle. He is a small gangster who dropped out of high school and ran away from home. If it weren't for the popularity of live broadcasts, he might still be washing dishes in the back kitchen of a restaurant.

Hydrogen has lingering fears: "Brother Lang, you scared me to death. Why did the police come? I thought something happened."

Xu Lang didn't answer him, he turned around and walked towards the study step by step.

Hydrogen looked at his straight walking posture and swallowed, but he didn't know what to say. I had no choice but to say, "Brother Lang, you have been working without stopping since yesterday. You are all injured. Go to bed earlier!"

Xu Lang still ignored him.

However, halfway through, Xu Lang suddenly stopped, and he slowly opened his mouth, as if someone strangled his neck and couldn't breathe, and began to breathe loudly.

Hydrogen heard the voice and came over: "What's the matter?"

As soon as he approached, Xu Lang returned to normal.

Xu Lang looked at him: "No, what."

Hydrogen: "… "

Touching the goose bumps on his arm, the yellow-haired guy said, "Then, I'll go back to my room first? Uh, Brother Lang, I've already bought a ticket, and I'll go back to Nanjing tomorrow."

"okay… "

"I'll have a room..."

After finally escaping back to the room, Hydrogen breathed a sigh of relief.

He didn't expect that a normal wandering person on the Internet would be so weird in reality.

He came for two days, and Xu Lang worked for two days!

"Doesn't he need to sleep?" He muttered, and the hydrogen yawned and lay back on the bed.

Outside the door, separated by a wall.

Hydrogen did not know that Xu Lang did not go to work in the study.

He stood in the doorway of the hydrogen room, his head moved to the left and to the right. The wound on his forehead is no longer bleeding, but his lips are getting whiter and his breathing is getting faster and faster. In the darkness, I saw that his neck seemed to be pinched by a pair of invisible hands, gradually deformed and stretched out the shape of fingers.

Dark clouds passed, and the moonlight shone into the house, illuminating Xu Lang and the girl who was riding on his neck.

The girl's wrists were covered in blood. She bent over, like playing with a toy, and grabbed Xu Lang's neck.

open.

pinch.

Let go again.

Squeeze again.

"Hahahaha… "

"Why are you… "

"You want to separate me and Ah Qing..."

"He loves me."

"I know, I know hee hee hee..."

The ethereal and treacherous laughter reverberated in the high-end apartment at four in the morning.

***

Netherworld, Wangchuan Huangquan.

It's been a long, dark road.

There is no beginning and no end. Narrow and rugged, along the rushing and whistling Wangchuan, there are numb and exhausted ghosts.

Some ghosts lowered their heads and said nothing, while others cried bitterly.

But none of them retreated backwards, just like the yellow spring that only flows into the depths of hell, one pair after another, walking forward.

Every ghost's soul is different.

The soul that just died was very weak, as if it would dissipate when touched. It was only after he had been dead for many years that he came to the underworld to report. His soul was firm, like a living person.

Chen Jianjun has been dead for 23 years, and he stands in this long and narrow ghost brigade, like a confused human being who has gone astray.

Suddenly, he stopped.

The stiff neck creaked up and looked up at the pitch-black sky.

Everyone walks forward, and if you stop suddenly, it's very abrupt.

The ghosts slammed into Chen Jianjun, who was squeezed to the left and right.

The ghosts who came to the underworld have lost most of their consciousness, and Chen Jianjun was bumped in a daze, not knowing what he was doing.

Moments later, he was hit by the ghost squad on the edge of the path.

Chen Jianjun lowered his head and saw a golden shortcut.

A little bit of golden light flashed in front of his eyes, and suddenly, there was clarity.

Somehow, he took this path.

In less than half a day's effort, he crossed the six Yin bridges such as the gold, silver, jade, wooden planks, Naihe, etc., and without any reason, he stepped into the wheel hall, which was specially in charge of the ghosts' lives, grades, and reincarnations!

The two ghosts guarding the door were on duty while chatting.

They stared at the haunted ghosts in front of them.

"Now when are these dead."

"More than 20 years in the Republic of China? Twenty-three or twenty-four."

"Huh, there are quite a lot of people in the back, and it takes a long time to queue."

Chen Jianjun's scalp tightened, and he hurriedly inserted himself into these ghosts in the costumes of the Republic of China.

But he was still discovered by a ghost policeman, and the ghost policeman wearing an official hat pulled him out. The solemn and terrifying official pressure made Chen Jianjun breathless, and the ghost frowned: "What's the matter, this dress is not right, it looks like he died in the last few decades. Cut the queue?"

Another ghost officer took a tattered book from the wall and flipped through it: "Chen Jianjun, died in 1997..."

"How did this cut the queue?"

"Huh? It's not a queue cut?"

"What?"

"Look, this kid's name has already been placed in the waiting area of the Wheel Hall. If you don't go in, it will be too late!"

"..." Gui Chai said speechlessly, "You said that in the past few years, these messy bugs have been popping up all the time. Every three days, a queue jumper is sent in. It's not good to follow the rules. I haven't seen so many before."

The ghost messenger loosened Chen Jianjun's collar, and Chen Jianjun was relieved, feeling like he was fished out of the water. If the ghost could sweat, he must be soaking wet by now.

Behind them, the two ghosts are still complaining that the registration book of the Wheel Hall has been bugged in recent years.

Entering the Wheel Hall, Chen Jianjun was trembling like a sieve. On both sides of the main hall door stood an evil statue of Arhat. The terrifying and majestic aura was so overwhelming that an ordinary ghost couldn't raise his head at all, so he could only walk forward in two battles. . In a trance, he raised his hands and looked at his fingers.

A little bit of golden light spilled out from between his fingers and disappeared into the air.

Chen Jianjun was extremely confused.

… What exactly happened here.
