Late Night Bookstore

Chapter 206: Tangled chains

Views:

The traffic police came, and the police also came. After all, a kidnapping case had occurred. Although the plot was ridiculous and nonsensical, even Stephen Chow's movies probably wouldn't dare to use such a plot for fear of being criticized by the audience for insulting their IQ and being illogical, but it really happened.

When this news first spread on Weibo and Tieba, many people might criticize it by saying, "It starts with a picture, and the rest is all made up."

But when the facts really came out, it was enough to surprise a large group of people.

It was somewhat coincidental that the "guard" who had been doing political education work with Zhou Ze last night also appeared here, assigning tasks like a police boss.

His name seemed to be Zhang Yanfeng. Zhou Ze still had some impression of him.

Yes, how could a policeman with such a righteous character be just a small guard

He also saw Zhou Ze, then frowned deeply and walked over.

Zhou Ze had just finished a simple record. In fact, the case was already very clear. The police had already retrieved the suspect's video and had identified the suspect. All that was left was to close the net and catch the suspect.

"Nice to meet you again." Zhang Yanfeng reached out and patted Zhou Ze's shoulder gently.

Zhou Ze frowned slightly. He was a mysophobe and was averse to physical contact with strangers.

So, when Officer Zhang took his hand away, Zhou Ze deliberately reached out and patted his shoulder.

“… …” Police Officer Zhang.

"I'll say it again, I didn't make the poison." Zhou Ze repeated helplessly.

There really wasn't anything illegal or disorderly done in his own bookstore, and Zhou Ze was a lazy person. He would never personally handle things that could be solved by calling the police. He wasn't interested in just being a bystander or playing extra-legal trials.

He believes that the people's police are absolutely fair and serve the people. With the convening of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the style and rules and regulations of police personnel are constantly being improved and progressed, and have become a solid force and tough guarantee for protecting the construction of socialism with Chinese characteristics!

"Whether it was done or not, we will continue to investigate," said Police Officer Zhang.

"But I quite like the environment of the detention center," Zhou Ze said.

Officer Zhang was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Can I understand this as a provocation?"

"No, just like many young intellectuals say that a trip to Tibet can purify one's soul, I think that going to a detention center can also calm one's restless heart."

"Haha." Officer Zhang smiled with a forced smile.

Zhou Ze shrugged. There was nothing he could do. He couldn't just say that there seemed to be a ghost in the police station detention center and asked, "How about I catch the ghost for you for free?"

"I have your business card. I'll contact you later to have a chat. I hope we can talk in the detention center." Zhou Ze said.

"You are most welcome."

Zhou Ze asked the Taoist priest to take another taxi. No matter what, they should go back first. He was a little tired and wanted to go back to the bookstore to sleep and rest.

However, there was a traffic jam here because of this incident, so the three of them had to walk a distance before they could get a taxi.

Boss Zhou was walking and yawning, when at this moment, a "rustling" sound rang in his ears.

Zhou Ze froze abruptly, stopped all movements, and just listened attentively.

“Clatter… clatter…”

Yes,

It was the sound of the anklet dragging on the ground,

Very close,

Very close,

Right beside you!

He came out

Followed me out of the police station

And in broad daylight!

Are you so disrespectful and so rampant

However, just like last night, Zhou Ze still only heard the sound but did not see anything real. This feeling made Zhou Ze very uncomfortable and unaccustomed to it.

Human fear comes from the unknown. This invisible thing that can only be imagined is the most torturous. Just like the scariest scene in a horror movie is not when the ghost jumps out to fight you, but the stage before the ghost comes out when the main and supporting characters walk in a gloomy environment accompanied by depressing music.

“Stop.”

Zhou Ze stretched out his hand and signaled the Taoist priest and Xu Qinglang to stop.

The old Taoist looked at Zhou Ze in some confusion, and so did Xu Qinglang.

Even Zhou Ze couldn't see that thing, let alone the two of them.

When Zhou Ze stopped,

The sound of the chains suddenly disappeared, as if they had gone far away.

But somehow, Zhou Ze could imagine that a guy with anklets on his feet just passed by him.

Where is he going

What is he going to do

What kind of existence is it that a ghost can still move around in a place like a police station

Now Zhou Ze no longer has the mentality of catching big fish, but begins to worry whether this thing will cause damage to society and whether it will hurt innocent people.

Just like the little Lolita couldn't retreat when facing the ghost warrior in the hot spring villa, it is her duty. The underworld may not care about the killing and extra money making of you low-level ghost officials, but once you fail to do your job well, the underworld has special punishment methods.

Looking around, Zhou Ze found an anorectal hospital diagonally opposite.

Well, out of an instinctive feeling that places like hospitals and schools always seemed to be prone to seeing ghosts, Zhou Ze subconsciously walked towards the hospital entrance.

This hospital is not big, just one building, and can be considered a small specialized hospital.

Arriving at the hospital entrance, Zhou Ze sat down on the steps.

"Help me block it." Zhou Ze said to the old Taoist and Xu Qinglang beside him.

The two nodded. Although they didn't know what Zhou Ze was going to do, they still chose to cooperate.

The fingernails on Zhou Ze's right hand grew out, and at the same time, wisps of black air began to surround him. Then, Zhou Ze touched the tiles on the ground with his fingernails, and the black air also merged into the ground.

But this time, no black footprints appeared on the ground. Zhou Ze had used this trick many times before and it always worked. He couldn't play tricks like the little loli,

BIU,

It disappeared.

BIU,

Just come back again.

But he also has his own way of catching ghosts, but surprisingly, this ghost is not only invisible, but even its footprints do not appear.

What the hell is this

Zhou Ze stood up and walked down the stairs. Now the problem had reached a dead end. He couldn't find that thing at all. How could he solve it

However, at this moment, the "crashing" sound rang out again.

Zhou Ze took a deep breath and clenched his fists. He was angry, really angry. The other party was provoking and teasing him. He didn't even take him, a ghost messenger, seriously!

No matter how small the village official is, he is still a cadre, right

Boss Zhou even had the urge to be paralyzed for another half a month and then use his Wushuang to catch this pretentious bastard.

But Zhou Ze was worried that he would still get nothing from that thing after becoming a zombie, which meant that he would not be able to do anything in the next half month.

“Clatter… clatter…”

The sound is still ringing.

Zhou Ze closed his eyes and began to listen quietly.

On the left, the sound on the left is clearer!

When he opened his eyes, he saw the entrance to the hospital building on his left. Zhou Ze pushed aside the old Taoist priest and Xu Qinglang in front of him and rushed inside.

“Crash… Crash… Crash… Crash…!!!!!!!!!!!”

As if deliberately teasing Zhou Ze, when Zhou Ze started running in that direction, the sound of the chain became rapid again, and the frequency became faster and faster, as if the guy was running right in front of him.

Laodao and Xu Qinglang could only run behind Zhou Ze. Although they didn’t know what Zhou Ze was chasing, they just followed him.

In fact, Zhou Ze didn’t know what he was chasing.

He even began to doubt whether he was chasing a ghost.

If it's a ghost, how could I not see it

Could it be some mountain monster

Using a special sleight of hand so that you can't see

But it has shackles and chains on its body

With the experience of facing the masturbating monkey before, Zhou Ze has always maintained an extremely cautious attitude towards the existence of monsters. No matter what, Boss Zhou will not be stupid enough to go up and fight to the death like last time.

The sound continued to increase rapidly.

It kept echoing in Zhou Ze's ears.

Zhou Ze... Zhou Ze...

Zhou Ze could hardly run anymore.

Damn Xu Le’s body, his physical fitness is so poor!

Little did people know that he not only eats little, but also lies on the sofa all day reading newspapers and drinking coffee, and when he has nothing to do, he is too lazy to even step out of the bookstore.

As I was running, I came to a dead end. There was a wall in front of me, and on the left side of the wall was a toilet.

Zhou Ze slowly slowed down his pace.

Likewise,

The sound of the chain rubbing also slowed down. The other party must have run into a dead end and slowed down his pace, thinking about where to go.

Zhou Ze opened his arms and threw himself forward. This action made him look like a fool pretending that a girl wanted to hug him, but it was the best method Zhou Ze could choose now.

Without any touch, nothing, Zhou Ze turned into the bathroom.

The toilet environment in the hospital is quite good. There are special people responsible for cleaning, and the tiles on the floor have just been mopped.

There were three squat toilet cubicles in this small restroom. Zhou Ze went over to open the doors one by one and even waved his hand inside, but still nothing was inside.

Damn it,

Where on earth did that thing go!

Zhou Ze walked to the sink, turned on the faucet, rinsed his face, and began to breathe heavily.

"Fuck, Boss... Are you in such a hurry just to go to the bathroom?"

The old Taoist also ran to the bathroom door at this time, with his hands on his waist, breathing heavily.

Then, the Taoist priest took out half a pack of tissues and handed it to Zhou Ze: "Do you want some?"

Zhou Ze didn't answer and continued to rush in the face.

"Then I will go to the bathroom first."

The old Taoist touched his crotch first, took out a piece of talisman paper and stuck it on the mirror of the sink, then walked to the urinal, untied his belt and started to drain the water.

No one knew where he got the habit of hiding talisman paper in his crotch. According to Xu Qinglang's joking explanation, the old Taoist priest almost had his yang energy sucked away by a female ghost during a health check. Hiding the talisman paper in his crotch was his last line of defense, just in case.

Zhou Ze wiped the water drops off his face with his clothes, walked to the bathroom door, and waited for the old Taoist to come out after using the bathroom.

"What happened?" Xu Qinglang asked standing at the door.

“I don’t know…”

Zhou Ze answered while looking towards the bathroom again.

Because it is far away from the washbasin mirror,

The self in the mirror was suddenly shrunk, but the reflection was more comprehensive.

The next moment,

Zhou Ze was stunned.

In the mirror with the old Taoist talisman paper,

He saw clearly,

In the position of your feet,

Wrapped in a rusty chain,

Very long,

Very thick...
