His voice was full of frustration: "At that time, because I was the leader of the special service team, I was responsible for close protection and was with two protection targets. I used to be a complete materialist and a staunch atheist, and I didn't believe in this There are some weird things in the world, but that day..."

Chen Xiao's curiosity was piqued.

Officer Xu raised his hands and made a gesture: "The only place in the room that can lead to the outside, the central air-conditioning vent, is this high." The distance he gestured was only about ten centimeters. "The pipes inside are all flat! But that day, I saw with my own eyes a man who was at least 180 centimeters tall, just got out of it and came out of the air conditioning vent on the ceiling! His body was shaking every time Each part is like dough and can be bent and folded at will!”

His voice was full of frustration and decadence: "The guy suddenly jumped down and stood in front of me. I was stunned at the time. When I reacted, he easily subdued me. I remember, he just looked at me At one glance and just raising my hand, my whole body seemed to be paralyzed and I couldn't move at all!

I just fell straight to the ground, unable to even lift a finger. Then I watched that guy, in front of my eyes, use a thin piece of paper to cut the necks of two protection targets! "

"It can't be yoga." Chen Xiao smiled bitterly: "I seem to have heard that some kind of magical yoga can make people shrink their bodies, and there is a bone-shrinking technique in our ancient Chinese martial arts... As for him paralyzing you, could it be that he released some drugs in the air?"

"I have thought of all the things you have thought of." Officer Xu's expression was helpless: "What kind of yoga or bone-shrinking skills do you think can make a sturdy man who is more than 180 centimeters tall shrink his body? Through a small pipe of more than ten centimeters?"

Chen Xiao: “…”

"As for my paralysis, I thought it was some kind of medicine, but after I underwent a physical examination, I didn't have any reaction to the medicine at all! And don't think that anesthetic medicine can do that... I was very conscious at the time, and I didn't have any reaction at all. There is no dizziness or dull feeling after anesthesia!”

He finally sighed heavily: "The murderer killed someone right in front of me, then opened the window, jumped directly from a building dozens of meters high... and then disappeared without a trace. I thought he would be thrown Death, but... nothing happened, after he jumped out of the window sill, he disappeared."

Officer Xu turned to stare at Chen Xiao: "Afterwards, the team I was in was severely punished internally for failing in the mission. As the leader of the team, I was naturally even more unlucky. The most important thing is that I put my experiences and observations at that time into perspective. Everything I learned was written into a report and handed in. But the people above thought I was talking nonsense, and they even thought that I made up such ridiculous words to evade responsibility because of the failure of the mission... "

His tone was very frustrating: "I firmly believe that the person who did that thing is definitely not a normal ordinary person! But no one believed my report and my words! I was severely punished internally, and because of that ridiculous report, I was considered I had a mental problem, so I was suspended from work and received psychological treatment for half a year. Later, I was expelled from the special service team and transferred to K City to work as a small policeman... That's probably what happened."

Chen Xiao looked at Officer Xu and couldn't help but sympathize with him. Judging from what he said, it was probably someone with superpowers who did it. If it had been a few days ago, I'm afraid Chen Xiao wouldn't have believed this nonsense, but now...

"Nine years have passed." Officer Xu shook his head: "I have been trying to forget in my heart, and I pretend that it never happened. I am an ordinary policeman and do my job peacefully. But I didn't expect that this time The two cases involving you remind me of the past again!"

His eyes gradually became a little aggressive: "Chen Xiao, there must be something hidden about your injuries and the robber's overturning of the car that day, right?"

Chen Xiao was silent and speechless, but Officer Xu had already restarted the car and continued to drive forward.

Neither of them spoke any more along the way. The car drove to the roadside in Chen Xiao's residential area and stopped. Officer Xu said to Chen Xiao, "I know there must be something special about you. Chen Xiao, I don't mean any harm." . And I have investigated your information and your life experience. You are an ordinary student, nothing special, and you are law-abiding. What happened today, I can probably guess what happened between the couple. Disputes. If you are brave enough to save others, it means you are a good person. I will not cause trouble for you."

After a pause, he smiled bitterly and said: "It's just that I really want to get a confirmation from you. After that incident and my report were published, everyone in my original organization thought that I had a mental problem. , some people even said that I was crazy behind my back. This made me very dissatisfied! I even received psychological counseling later. After so many years, sometimes I even doubted myself. Am I crazy? Or those things , is it all my own fantasy? But now, at least I have met you, and your living example is right in front of me! I can at least be sure of one thing: I am not a madman! "

After saying that, he stared at Chen Xiao closely: "I have no mental problems or illusions. These are all true... right?"

Chen Xiao looked at Officer Xu's eyes. Although his eyes were very bright, they were somewhat pleading. After all, he had a kind heart. He finally couldn't help but nodded: "... That's right, you are not a madman. In this world, There is indeed everything that we cannot understand. I can confirm that you are not crazy."

Officer Xu seemed to have put down the burden of many years. He breathed a long sigh of relief, stretched out his hand and shook Chen Xiao's hand: "Thank you! You let me put down a stone that has been in my heart for many years. Also, that day It was you who overturned the car of those robbers, although I don’t know how you did it. But you did a favor to our police in that matter."

Chen Xiao couldn't help but smile bitterly. That thing was clearly done by the woman named Hong Qi, but Officer Xu thought it was him. He thought about it and decided that it would be more troublesome to explain, so he might as well just leave it like that.

When Chen Xiao got out of the car and left, Officer Xu stopped him again.

"By the way, there is one more thing to tell you. In that case, the murderer used a thin piece of paper to cut the necks of two protection targets... I remember it very clearly at the time. It was a A playing card.”

Officer Xu smiled bitterly: "An eight of hearts."

He finished speaking as if he was just confiding - in fact, he was just confiding. These things had been held in his heart for many years. If he told them to others, they would definitely think that he was making up stories. Now I can finally tell Chen Xiao, and I can also get some confirmation from Chen Xiao...

"If you have anything to do in the future, you can call me directly." Officer Xu left a message before leaving.

Watching the police car leave, Chen Xiao stood there for a while and felt relieved.

Fortunately, Officer Xu didn't cause trouble for me!

But I remembered what he said at the end...

A playing card, eight of hearts

Red eight…

etc!

Chen Xiao's eyes suddenly lit up! !

Black seven, red seven, black three... red eight...

Could it be...

If the eight of hearts can be called the eight of hearts...then does the seven of hearts represent the seven of hearts? What about Black Seven? Is it the 7 of spades

He thought again of the European man named Lei Hu whom he had met last time. The other party claimed that his name was "BLACKJACK". If it were among the playing cards, wouldn't it be the Jack of Spades?

If you put it that way, the killer who caused Officer Xu to lose his job was probably a member of the service club!

After standing quietly for a while, Chen Xiao felt more and more confused.

There is obviously something abnormal happening in my body...but I can't figure it out.

Crash a car... Did I become Superman

Is it possible to be like that Hong Qi and overturn a car with just a shout

Is this a superpower

Just when he was feeling confused, Chen Xiao's phone suddenly rang.

When he looked at the number, it was a series of garbled characters. After pressing the answer button, a dry and familiar old man's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Boy Chen Xiao!"

Yi? Is it that old guy Edward? Well, now he can be regarded as his employer...

"Uh, what's the matter?" Chen Xiao held the phone blankly.

"It's nothing, I just want to remind you that tomorrow is Thursday! Remember my words, no matter whether it's windy or rainy tomorrow night, or even if it's a knife from the sky, you have to open the business!" Edward's voice was very rough, without any trace of it. You're welcome.

"I know." Chen Xiao sighed, and Edward snorted: "It's good that you haven't forgotten!"

Chen Xiao suddenly reacted and shouted quickly: "Wait a moment, don't hang up! I have something to ask you!"

"Say something quickly!" Edward said impatiently.

"Well... there is no cash in the store. If a customer comes to drink coffee, there will be no change in the cashier. Also, there is nothing in the kitchen, and I don't even have the money to purchase supplies... Also, if If you can't come back this month, my salary..." Chen Xiao smiled bitterly: "There are only those gold and diamonds in the safe..."

"Do you want me to teach you this? You are a pig-brained person! Just take a piece of it and sell it!"

Edward's answer was rude.

"..." Chen Xiao was speechless - just took a piece and sold it? You really "trust" me!

"Is there anything else you can do? If you have anything to say, please tell me. If nothing happens, I'll hang up! I'm very busy!"

"Wait a minute..." Chen Xiao thought for a moment: "Uh... after you left yesterday, a girl named Fenghuang came to the store, and she seemed to be looking for you... Do you know her?"

When Chen Xiao asked this question, his heart pounded.

If nothing else, it was the girl named Phoenix who left too many ripples in his heart. Every teenager has his first moments of love...

The old guy seemed to be silent for a while, then suddenly became angry.

"What kind of phoenix or phoenix! I don't know him!"

After speaking, the other party hung up before Chen Xiao could speak.

What are you doing... Chen Xiao was a little dumbfounded. He still had questions to ask!

He really didn't know who to ask about what happened to him. After much deliberation, he might ask Yanni (Hei San) who had the best attitude towards him, but Yanni did not leave her contact information for him when she left. Then we can only ask Edward. After all, Edward is also a member of the service club, although it is said that he is a retired member.

After holding the phone and staring blankly for a while, Chen Xiao suddenly felt something in his heart and walked to the side. There was a rockery in the community garden. Chen Xiao stood there, thinking for a while, then clenched his fists and tried to concentrate...

If I can lift a car, can I knock this rockery down or fly it with one punch

Concentrate... Concentrate...

Chen Xiao took a deep breath...

Snapped! ! ! ! ! !

A few seconds later, a suppressed cry of pain came from the night community.

"Wow...it hurts...it's bleeding..."
