I looked at Luo Ding's body again, but was speechless for a long time. The shocks brought to me today are one after another. First, Xing Yafang seemed to see something in the elevator, and she pulled out her eyeballs alive. Then, Luo Ding was frightened to death by a face in his own home.
From Luo Ding's behavior of hiding in the cabinet, we can imagine a scene. When we made the call, Luo Ding should still have not encountered any supernatural phenomena. When we made a call, Luo Ding came out of the bedroom to look for his mobile phone, but saw a white face dangling in the living room.
This face, which was three or four times larger than a normal face, appeared in the living room out of thin air, but the two eyes were pitch black, like a face whose eyes had been gouged out. This made Luo Ding frightened, he picked up the mobile phone in the living room, hid back in the bedroom, and hid in the closet.
He turned his mobile phone to vibrate, fearing that the ghosts would chase him all the way. However, the fear for many days and the long time without rest have made Luo Ding's body very fragile. Luo Ding's nerves were tense all the time, his heart was already overloaded. Under this premise, when encountering today's incident, Luo Ding's adrenaline secretion was too much, and his heart beat too fast. He hugged himself tightly, and his heart stopped beating.
Luo Ding didn't have any scars on his body. From the traces at the scene and my previous inferences about Luo Ding, sudden cardiac arrest due to panic is the most likely inference at present.
Obviously we still have a lot of questions to ask Luo Ding, but Luo Ding just died in front of us. And Luo Ding must know something, otherwise, how could he be sure that it must be Lu Zhiqiu's ghost who came back for revenge? When he was in the hotel, Luo Ding had something to say, but the death of Xing Yafang just happened at that time.
Zhao Mingkun said: "We can't stay here for a long time. We came in over the wall, and now we are killed. No matter whether you have a certificate or not, the security of the community will not let us go easily. You and I will leave when the time comes." It's gone."
I nodded and said, "Look! Look for things in Luo Ding's house! An introverted person like Luo Ding must have left some writing. Do you have any diaries? "
Zhao Mingkun nodded, and began to turn around in the whole room.
I started to flip through Luo Ding's clothes. I remember that before, Luo Ding was wearing a T-shirt, but now he was wearing a coat. But the house is not cold, why would he wear a piece of clothing? I fumbled in his inner pocket and found a small notebook.
The notebook is a little bigger than a cell phone and fits nicely in the lined pocket.
I flipped through it casually, and found that it was densely packed with crooked and crooked handwriting.
"Go, I found it."
When Zhao Mingkun and I came out of the house, the door lock was broken and there was no way to close it. But there was still no one outside the building, and it was quiet all around. And here is actually not soundproof, you should be able to hear the upstairs and downstairs. But no one came out to see what happened upstairs, which surprised me.
As if seeing my thoughts, Zhao Mingkun said: "This matter is too normal. Everyone in the family has the mentality that more things are worse than less things. Although people didn't come out, they may have heard this matter." The police called the police, so let’s leave quickly.”
Turned out from the wall again, it was already three o'clock in the morning.
This is a small road, and there is no one around.
"Where are you going this time?" I asked, "I originally planned to stay at Luo Ding's house overnight and ask about the situation, but now I don't have the opportunity. You said, this ghost is a bit powerful. Even we are tonight If you come to Luo Ding, you will know."
Zhao Mingkun shrugged and said: "I don't think there are only a few people who died. It could be true that as Luo Ding said, anyone who sees her body must die in the end."
I sneered at this and said, "It's unlikely. There are not many people who are going to die. Wang Yikai said that they arrived after the cordon was pulled."
Zhao Mingkun raised a question: "If this is the case, then who reported the crime? When I chatted with the old lady before, the old lady didn't mention it. And the rest of the people never said this. The first one to see Who is the person who found Lu Zhiqiu's body?"
I frowned and thought for a moment: "If you say that, the first person who found the corpse is very suspicious. However, it has been seven years since the incident, who can know this? But now, we can't see it either. files at that time."
Zhao Mingkun sighed, and said, "Don't worry, you will be able to prove your innocence sooner or later."
I waved my hand: "It's useless, everyone knows, I'm hanging out with you now, even if that matter is clear, can we figure out the relationship between us?"
After all, both of them were silent.
After a long time, Zhao Mingkun said: "Don't worry, in the end, your innocence will be proved."
"How to prove?" I was a little puzzled.
Zhao Mingkun didn't answer my question, but said, "Do you know where we are going now?"
I shook my head.
"How dare you say that you have memorized the map of Dongxing City in your mind." Zhao Mingkun said with contempt: "The secret of escape, I will add another one to you, which is to always let yourself have a way out. And the premise of this , that is, you need to know the fastest escape route. Now, we are going to Lu Zhiqiu's parents' house."
"Home?" I asked.
Zhao Mingkun nodded: "That's right, but in terms of time, it will take a little longer."
Lu Zhiqiu's home is in the surrounding villages of Dongxing City. It takes three hours to travel to a place called Dayan Village.
When we got there, it was already daylight. And early, along the road, you can see the villagers who get up early to do farm work. When we asked someone about Lu Zhiqiu's home, someone finally pointed us to the place.
We knocked on the door of Lu's house, and a woman in her fifties appeared in front of us.
"Is this the Lu family?" I asked while taking out my ID.
The peasant woman said in a strong dialect: "Yes, yes, I am looking forward to you, come in quickly, come in quickly."
Zhao Mingkun and I looked at each other, not knowing what the peasant woman meant. Coming to Lu's house today was just a sudden decision, and I didn't discuss it with her. But judging from the enthusiastic behavior of the peasant woman, it seemed that she was waiting for us to come in early.
I was a little bewildered by the enthusiasm.
Zhao Mingkun asked cautiously: "Is this the Lu family? Is it Lu Xiangyang, the home of Lu Zhiqiu's parents?"
The peasant woman nodded, let us sit down in the main room, and asked: "That's right, I am Lu Xiangyang's mother. Haven't had breakfast yet, I'm here so early, come on, have something to eat first, my wife, Wife, come here, someone is coming!"
While talking, the bowls and chopsticks were already prepared for us, and several stacks of side dishes and steamed buns were served.
Although I don't know what happened, but I can't poison us to death as soon as I come. Thousands of words, it is better to fill one's stomach before talking. I was not polite, but Zhao Mingkun asked: "This time we are here to find Lu Xiangyang..."
While talking, a man also came out and sat by the table.
Zhao Mingkun continued: "We are here to find Lu Xiangyang."
"Looking for Lu Xiangyang?" The man, who was also in his fifties, asked.
"Yes." Zhao Mingkun nodded.
The man was a little puzzled: "Didn't we entrust you to find Lu Xiangyang?"
"What?" Zhao Mingkun asked.
The peasant woman said: "My son has been missing for a long time. He said he went out to find a classmate, but he never came back. It has been almost two weeks and he has disappeared. Tell me, can we not be in a hurry? Are you Said to help me find my son as much as possible. Where is my son?"
Zhao Mingkun and I looked at each other, and Lu Zhiqiu's younger brother, Lu Xiangyang, was missing.
"How long have you been missing?" I asked.
"It's been more than two weeks. Haven't I told you all of this?" The peasant woman became a little annoyed: "Why do you still ask, has anyone been found?"
Lu Xiangyang has disappeared, and has been missing for a long time. So judging from the time of committing the crime, Lu Xiangyang had the time and motivation to commit the crime. Lu Xiangyang is about seventeen years old this year, so he can be considered an adult. If Lu Xiangyang went out to take revenge without telling his parents, it would not be impossible.
I said, "Didn't he say anything when he left?"
"It's just that I want to find a classmate in the city, a classmate named Wang Kun, didn't I tell you all about it?" The man said, "We have a house in Dongxing City, so my son sometimes lives by himself. It’s nothing serious. However, this time I went for two weeks and didn’t come back, and I can’t get in touch now, do you think it’s worrying?”
The house that the Lu family bought in Dongxing City may have been purchased with the compensation money from Lu Zhiqiu's death seven years ago.
I asked again: "The relationship between Lu Xiangyang and Lu Zhiqiu..."
But before I finished the last "how is it", the expressions of the peasant woman and the man changed, and they immediately pulled their faces down. With a gloomy face, the peasant woman took down the vegetables and steamed buns in front of us, and said, "I'm talking about Lu Xiangyang, so what does it have to do with Lu Zhiqiu? How did you work? Why did you mention Lu Zhiqiu when no one was found? "
As she spoke, she drove us out with her hands: "Who is Lu Zhiqiu? Why don't I know, get out! Find my son and we'll talk about it later."
I was helpless, the face of this peasant woman was turned faster than the book, and I just mentioned Lu Xiangyang and Lu Zhiqiu, and started to drive us outside. I don't know if the two of them are Lu Zhiqiu's biological parents. Sure enough, as Zhao Mingkun said, this family probably didn't regard Lu Zhiqiu as their daughter at all.
While we were talking, the peasant woman had already kicked us out, and she stood at the door and cursed, "You're so good when you're idle, it's such a hassle to find someone."
Looking at the steamed bun in my hand, I really wanted to cry without tears.
"bump."
The big iron gate was closed.
And around us, there are many villagers watching the excitement.
