I said loudly: "Honghong, this is nothing like fishing in the countryside. Your life may be in danger at any time!" She shook her head and said, "I'm not afraid." I said, "You're not afraid, I'm afraid." , if you make any mistakes, I can't bear it if my aunt and uncle don't scold me to death, in a word, leave here tomorrow." Honghong stubbornly said: "Why don't I leave?" I said: "If you don't leave, I'll go, I'll go to Alaska!" Honghong stayed for a while, then said: "Cousin, so you hate me so much, I, I I thought you would welcome me!" As she spoke, the circles of her eyes turned red.

I hurriedly said: "Honghong, how could I hate you? I am thinking about your safety. These days, I am in the midst of something that confuses me!" Honghong hurriedly said: "What is it?" ?” I said, “I don’t know anything about it, but at least one person is dead, and one person is unconscious and may become an idiot, and I, tonight, also narrowly escaped death!” Hong Hong was silent, I knew she was using her brain again, trying to figure out something new, but she said, "Cousin, I won't bother you. Tomorrow, I will move to your friend's villa in the suburbs." I hurriedly said: "Okay, my friend is an athlete, a sports car racer, and a lover of modern art. He will definitely make you have a meaningful vacation!" Hong Hong stopped talking and walked towards the door.

She walked out and I sat down again. Until five o'clock in the morning, I finally figured out a clue in my disordered mind.The first point, I am sure, the matter has something to do with Boss Bai.Of course, it is also related to a large amount of wealth, and not only Boss Bai, but people from three mountains and five mountains are probably all involved in this matter.Second, "Sixteen Nights", of course it is a day.Today is the thirteenth day of the Gregorian calendar and the twenty-fourth day of the lunar calendar. Does "Sixteen Nights" refer to the lunar calendar or the solar calendar?It probably refers to the lunar calendar, because leaders of the Green Gang like Boss Bai have a strong Chinese flavor and rarely use the solar calendar to count days.

Thirdly, I decided to continue to "nosy my business" despite all intimidation, and I also hope that someone will intimidate me again, at least, they can give me some clues. I simply drafted two paragraphs, and I will send them to the newspaper for advertisement tomorrow. The draft is like this: "Mr. Bai, I have received a short letter, so it is difficult to follow through. Wei." In the eyes of others, this doesn't mean much at all, but Bai The boss can know, the other paragraph is: "Thomson: 25 appointments, don't forget." That is my "trick", I hope people think I already know the secret of those few words.

After finishing those things, I fell asleep. The next morning, I woke up around eleven o'clock, and as soon as I opened the door, I saw Lao Cai standing at the door with a mournful face.He had obviously been waiting for me for a long time, so I hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" Lao Cai said, "Honghong is gone!" I couldn't help being taken aback, and said, "Leave? What do you mean? But go out to play alone?" Lao Cai said, "No, she took everything with her luggage. I asked her where to go, and she said that since No one cares about her, there is no need for her to say where she goes.” I stayed for a while and asked: “Didn’t the people next to her say anything?” Lao Cai said: “Nothing was said, but I remember The license plate of the taxi she stopped!"

I breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay, go to the taxi company once, ask the driver where Hong Hong went, and bring her back." Lao Cai hesitated to speak, and finally nodded, saying : "Okay." This matter has been settled. In the past few days, I really can't add any more troubles, because there are already enough troubles. After I washed and washed, I ate in a hurry, and went to the hospital to see Xiaobing. Although Xiaobing was not dead, his condition did not improve. I stayed in front of the hospital bed for a long time, and felt infinite guilt in my heart.At the same time, the meaning of the words "Thomson 25" was also rapidly circling in my mind, because the meaning of these words is unclear, and nothing can be solved.

As for the origami monkey, at least part of its mysterious cloak has been uncovered, and it was obtained from the girl's words.The girl said to the three people who whipped me: "The paper monkey is a token." It can be seen that the monkey made of paper is a kind of token. I knew that it would be difficult to solve this problem with my own intelligence, so I decided to go to a friend of mine who is a private detective.This friend has a very high achievement in detective studies and can be called a famous name. He said that if his real name is written here, it will be suspected of "advertising". Therefore, I took a pseudonym for him. Call him Peter Huang.

I went to Peter Huang's office, but he went out. I waited for him all afternoon, but I didn't see him back, so I left a note telling him that I had something he was very interested in, and asked him to come to my house once. .In the evening, I returned home. Lao Cai was still crying, waiting for me at the door.I casually asked: "Has Hong Hong come back?" Lao Cai said: "No." I couldn't help getting angry again, and said: "Is she not willing to come back?" Lao Cai shook his head and said: "No, I found the taxi. The driver, he said he took Hong Hong. At the entrance of a hotel, Hong Hong got out of the car, but the waiter at the hotel saw Hong Hong waiting at the door for a while, then stopped another taxi and left , I don’t know where she went!” I sighed, trouble, plus trouble, what kind of luck did I not know these days?

I didn't say a word, and I didn't feel like eating. I just sat on the balcony and waited for Peter Huang to come. I didn't hear the doorbell until about nine o'clock, and then Peter Huang's voice called, "Sili! Siri!" I hurriedly said, "Come up quickly!" Peter Huang came upstairs. He was a man in his mid-thirties, with a wide range of knowledge and interests.His appearance is very ordinary, like an ordinary employee of a foreign company, it is absolutely impossible to tell that he is a famous private detective.He sat down opposite me, shook hands, and said, "I also have a very interesting thing." I smiled wryly, and said, "Let me talk about mine first. For you, It must be interesting. For me, it is a headache!" He nodded and said: "Okay, you go first." I will describe everything from Yu Tingwen's coming to me to the latest Tell him.

After listening to Peter Huang, he calmly said: "It's very interesting, my business is actually related to yours." I said, "What kind of relationship?" Peter Huang's voice became even more lazy "It's the words Thomson 25." I immediately said: "Peter, don't be fooled, what do those words mean?" Peter Huang smiled and said: "To put it bluntly, it is not Strange, it's Thomson Road, No. 25." I was stunned for a while, and said, "Why are you so sure?" Peter Huang looked at the sky, and said, "I already knew that something was wrong, but now Hearing you say that, I am even more sure that this is an extraordinary event!"

I don't ask questions, although the questions in my heart are like the stars in the sky.Because I know his temper, the more you ask, the more he will drag things further, making you more impatient. He lit the cigarette, took a few puffs, and said, "You know, I'm very interested in soul science..." I sighed secretly in my heart.Sure enough, he started talking from hundreds of thousands of miles away, and I don't know how long it will take before he can get to the point!to solve the doubts in my mind. I had no choice but to nod my head, Huang Peter said with a smile: "Tonight, there is one thing to prove..." I couldn't help saying loudly: "What is it, could it be a haunting?" Peter Huang said, "It's haunted." I quickly said, "I'm not interested." Peter Huang said: "You must be interested, because the haunted one is No. 25 Thomson Road." I actually, when he first said what "Thomson 25" meant.I already believed in his judgment, so I had no choice but to say: "Okay, let's go on." Peter Huang said: "No. 25 Thomson Road is a huge house with a history of 70 years." I laughed and said: "This is the condition for being haunted!" Peter Huang ignored my ridicule and said, "Today, there are only two old people living in this huge mansion. Their names, you must know, are Tian Lidong and his wife." I nodded and said, "This is a rich man. Of course I know his name. Didn't their only son die in a car accident a few years ago? How about it? But that precious playboy has returned to his soul? " That rich man has a precious son, everyone knows that, that precious son died after driving off a cliff a few years ago, and has gone to the underworld to seek happiness. Could it be that he has turned into a ghost?Peter Huang smiled wryly, "No, it's their niece." "Niece?" I felt very strange, because I had never heard of Tian Lidong having any niece. "Yes," Peter Huang said, "her name is Rose, and she is the daughter of Mrs. Tian's younger sister. She became an orphan very early and has been adopted by the Tian family. The two old couple love her very much and treat her as their own." Like a daughter. Rose was a very quiet girl who stayed at home almost all day, and died suddenly half a year ago." I felt a little interested, and said, "Sudden death, what do you mean?" Peter Huang said, "At that time, I also investigated this matter with the police station, but there was no result. She died peacefully, her face There was no pain on her face, and no scars on her body. After the autopsy, it was only found that her heart was blocked and died. This is a common phenomenon in patients with severe heart disease, but Rose has never had a heart attack, so she Exactly how he died remains a mystery." I stretched my body and said, "That's not surprising. As far as I know, there are several uncommon poisons that can kill a person, and the anatomists all over the world can't find the reason." Peter Huang nodded, and said: "I also believe that Rose's death is largely due to the victim, but in that mansion, who would have no motive or purpose to kill a lovely girl like Rose? What about the girl? I investigated for three months before I gave up on this matter, but I didn't expect that Rose's grievances persisted and she showed her spirit!" I laughed loudly, and said, "Peter, you are about to change your career, go to work as a foreign company employee, I will use you!" Peter Huang asked in astonishment, "Why?" I laughed and said, "Everyone who was killed will show up and name the murderer. You detectives, what else can you do?" Peter Huang was a little angry, and said, "What's wrong with you? I'm telling you something serious!" I apologize slightly, because I know Peter Huang's temper well. If it wasn't true, he wouldn't be so serious. I nodded and said, "I'm sorry, go on." Peter Huang lit another cigarette, and said, "Since half a month ago, every midnight, Tian Lidong and his wife always heard the crisp sound of the piano that the guest listened to, and it was played by Rose. The music I like to play the most, Tian Lidong and his wife, some nights, I even saw shadows of people beside the piano, and they floated away as soon as they came out!" I also felt that things were not that simple, so I just listened to Peter Huang without saying a word. Huang Peter said: "A week ago, Tian Lidong invited me to sleep in his house for one night. I slept in the room where Rose slept before his death. At midnight, I heard the sound of the piano, and the woman With a sigh, I quietly walked out of the room, and when I saw a shadow flash, I disappeared, and I was very awake that night!" My mind was changing rapidly, thinking about what was going on, but I couldn't figure out why. Huang Peter continued: "This story spread among some wealthy wives, so that even fewer people come and go to that mansion. Until yesterday, only one person came to recommend himself, saying that he is proficient in the art of larks, The dead Rose can talk to Mrs. Tian, ​​and people can watch it tonight." "Where is the location?" I said, "Of course it is at 25 Thomson Road?" Peter Huang Said: "Exactly." I stood up, paced back and forth a few steps, and said, "I'm very interested in such things as the Seance, but I can't figure out that 25 Thomson Road is haunted, and what I know What is the relationship between the things encountered?" Huang Peter said: "Many things seem to have nothing to do with each other at the beginning, but as things go on, it is very likely that two things are just one thing at all!" Things Subsequent developments proved Peter Huang's words to be correct, but at the time, I was skeptical. Huang Peter said: "The spirit summoning expert is scheduled to summon Rose's soul at midnight today. We might as well go there earlier so that we can have a further observation of the environment there." I nodded, and when I was about to say something, suddenly, I heard a "slap" in my bedroom, like the sound of something falling to the ground. The balcony is connected to both the bedroom and the study. At that time, Peter Huang and I were sitting at the end near the study, and couldn't see what was going on in the bedroom, so I immediately called out, "Lao Cai, is that you?" However, no one answered, I hurriedly rushed to the door of the bedroom, the bedroom was pitch black, I crossed my chest, took a step forward, and turned on the light. The door of the closet was open, and a hanger fell out of the closet. That was clearly the source of the "slap" just now, and the clothes in the closet were also a little messy. Huang Peter also followed immediately, and immediately said, "There was someone hiding in the closet!" I walked to the closet in two steps, Peter Huang also followed, and said, "The one hiding in your closet is a woman." I was taken aback for a moment and said, "How do you know?" Huang Peter stretched out his hand, brushed a long hair on a suit, and said, "This is the proof. This woman is about 170 centimeters tall." For Chinese women, that is already considered It was very high, and I immediately thought of the girl who almost killed me. That girl has a tall and tall figure. I was already suspicious at first. She was the one who threw the knife in warning last night. Now it seems that she must be the one hiding in my closet!I stayed for a while, then smiled wryly and said, "Go, I'll go to No. 25 Thomson Road with you tonight!" Peter Huang laughed.Said: "Do you know who is hiding in the closet?" I smiled awkwardly and said: "Don't talk nonsense!" The two of us talked for a while, went out at ten o'clock, and Ten minutes later, we arrived at 25 Thomson Road.No. 25 Thomson Road is an extremely magnificent mansion, and there are only six people including the servants.In addition, the building is already old, and even the lights are a bit dim, which adds to the gloomy atmosphere.A servant led us to the living room, which was surprisingly large, with seven or eight sets of sofas. In one corner, there was a grand piano. The light of the crystal lamp obviously could not take into account the entire living room. There was only one person, sitting in a dark corner, reading a magazine, and only raised his head slightly when he saw us.The man was sitting in such a dark corner, but he was wearing a pair of black glasses and a hat with feathers.I really don't know how he can see things, he is very slender, if it is not for the small mustache on the upper lip, it is almost suspicious.This is a woman in a man's clothes, at a glance.He immediately covered his face with a magazine. The instant impression made me feel that this person looked familiar, but I couldn't remember where I had seen him before.Now I'm at Tian Lidong's home, so of course I don't take the liberty to ask who he is.I just looked at him a few more times, then walked up and down the hall with Peter Huang, and went to the piano again, looked carefully a few times, but couldn't see anything unusual. After eleven o'clock, a few more people came.Two are well-known writers, one Mr. Jin.A Mr. Dong and a fat man introduced themselves loudly as soon as they entered the living room. They said that they were the chairman of the company and they never believed in ghosts.My attention has been on the man with the mustache sitting in a dark corner. The man also seemed to be aware that I was paying attention to him, and kept holding the magazine, refusing to put it down, which aroused my suspicion even more. Then, two senior police officers from the police station also came, and Peter Huang stood up and talked with them. At 11:30, the host Tian Lidong and his wife came to the living room together with a middle-aged man in a black suit. The eyes of the middle-aged man seemed to be shining with green light faintly, adding a layer of mysterious atmosphere in the hall, everyone fell silent, and all looked at that man with surprise on their faces. I carefully looked at that "expert in summoning spirits", and found that there was indeed a strange brilliance in his eyes, and that kind of brilliance made him look like a ghost! The exact age of the "Spirit Summoning Expert" is difficult to estimate, it is always about fifty years old, and the face is very thin.As soon as the host couple and the summoning expert appeared.The mysterious atmosphere is getting stronger and stronger. The master nodded and greeted everyone, and everyone stood up. In return, only the man with the mustache in the corner of the room was still sitting proudly, and the black glasses on his face were not removed. A look of dissatisfaction appeared on Tian Lidong's face. Considering his social status, he rarely received such impolite treatment.But he didn't make a sound.All these situations are carefully observed in my eyes, which makes me pay more attention to that person. Tian Lidong coughed and said, "Everyone, I would like to introduce Mr. Du Zhong to you." The "expert in summoning spirits" got up, and what caught my attention was that he clasped his fists at someone.This is a kind of Chinese etiquette that has been almost forgotten. I looked at him again, and his face was still shrouded in a mysterious atmosphere, which can be said to be expressionless. Tian Lidong continued: "Mr. Du is a summoner. Hey... I don't really believe in the matter of summoning spirits, but Mr. Du claims that he can do it. Everyone here is not an outsider..." He finished here , involuntarily, glanced at the man with the mustache again. In his actions, I can be sure that Tian Lidong must not know that person.That person probably knew that there would be a lot of guests coming here, so he mixed in with excuses. Although I have found out the identity of that person, but here, I am neither the master, and of course it is inconvenient to intervene, so I can only pay more attention.Tian Lidong continued: "This time, I hope everyone, it's best not to publicize it!" Tian Lidong had just finished speaking, and the fat chairman said "definitely do it" seven or eight times in a row. I looked at my watch, it was nearly eleven fifty.I saw Tian Lidong sitting down.An expert in Eucommia summoning spirits, his name is clearly fabricated, it is the name of a blind Chinese medicine, stood up, slowly took out two finger-thick incense sticks from a leather bag, struck several matches, and finally Light the incense. I speculate that the person surnamed Du may be an expert in advanced hypnotism, but definitely not an expert in summoning spirits. At this moment, seeing him suddenly lighting two sticks of thick incense, I couldn't help but suspect that he didn't know if he had another purpose. However, I sniffed the fragrance carefully, but I didn't feel anything unusual. Du Zhong lit the incense, held it flat, and slowly came to the side of the piano, put the incense in a small vase, slowly raised his hand, and said, "Turn off the light!" Whether it was every move, or even the tone of voice, the expert in summoning spirits seemed extremely mysterious. The two people standing on the side looked at Tian Lidong, Tian Lidong said: "Do as Mr. Du ordered." With a "slap", the crystal chandelier went out.Even if the crystal chandelier is on, because the living room is too big, the light is not very strong.Now, when the big chandelier is turned off, the living room is even darker.For a while, I couldn't see anything. It wasn't until my eyes got used to the darkness that I saw those few incense sticks, which just shrouded the grand piano in a layer of crimson light.Eucommia stood next to those few incense sticks, faintly red incense sticks.Reflecting his face, he looked like a wizard from the hinterland of Africa, extremely mysterious and weird. There was no sound in the hall. I looked at everyone, although I couldn't see their faces clearly, but I could consciously feel that everyone's attention was focused on Du Zhong's face.I firmly believe that Eucommia's actions must have a purpose, but I can't think of what he is doing.Maybe he just devised a scam to defraud Mrs. Tian Lidong of money?However, other things lingering in my mind do not allow me to imagine the problem so simple. I believe that "Thomson 25" is 25 Thomson Road, which is the place where this mysterious spirit meeting is currently being held.So far, I still haven't been able to decide between the two.Find out what the connection is.Du Zhong's eyes seemed to be open or closed, his head was raised slightly, his lips were moving, and he was speaking inaudible words. Suddenly, there was a sound of "Dang", breaking the silence, and then another eleven in a row.It was a chiming clock telling the time, and it was already midnight?The bell caused a whisper, and Peter Huang whispered to me: "Be careful, the time is up!" As soon as Huang Peter finished speaking, when the bell was still ringing, Du Zhong suddenly called out in a voice like a sleepwalker: "Listen!" The living room fell silent again. A crisp and pleasant piano sound suddenly sounded. The sound of the piano was clearly coming from the piano, but at this time, there was no one in front of the piano, and the cover of the piano was still tightly closed. Peter Huang touched me lightly and said, "How do you explain it?" I whispered: "It's easy, a small tape recorder can achieve today's purpose." I also heard Mrs. Tian's sobbing. Suddenly, Du Zhong took a step forward with a more serious expression on his face. He came to the empty piano chair and bowed slightly.Said: "Miss Rose, you are back, let all the guests appreciate your piano carefully. Why don't you take off the piano cover?" When Du Zhong said those few words, I almost laughed, because his words and attitude were really too ridiculous, almost like a lunatic.However, after he finished speaking those few words, something incredible happened! I could see very clearly, only heard a girl sighing softly. To be honest, in such a situation, hearing such a faint sigh is indeed very creepy.Immediately afterwards, the cover of the piano was slowly and automatically lifted. Beside the piano, there is only Eucommia alone. And Eucommia's hands are placed on the chest, everyone can see that the one who lifted the piano cover is really Rose's soul?Added quite a few heavy calls in the hall, I'm imagining.Eucommia may be a magician, using the dark light to lift the piano cover with black silk.This is not difficult for a capable magician. However, another inexplicable thing suddenly appeared in front of everyone: after the piano cover was lifted, the keys were beating, as if two hands were pressing on them! The sound of Ding Dong's zither was originally very melodious and pleasant, but at this moment, it is enveloped in a kind of ghostly aura, which makes people short of breath and makes people feel cold all over, as if they are in a ghost land! The automatic beating of the keys is really inexplicable. After about ten minutes, the keys stopped beating and the sound of the piano stopped. Du Zhong said to the empty stool again: "Miss Rose, would you like to have a few words with your aunt?" Mrs. Tian Lidong shouted hysterically: "Rose, if you have anything to say, tell me quickly!" Du Zhong then took a step back and said, "Mrs. Tian, ​​she has something to say to you, and I hope you come closer." The figure of Mrs. Tian tremblingly came to the piano, her hands trembling slightly, groping forward. Du Zhong immediately stopped her action, saying: "Mrs. Tian, ​​the soul cannot be touched." With the faint red incense, I could see that Mrs. Tian's face was full of tears, and said: "Rose, what do you have to say, tell me!" Du Zhong stretched out a hand, and said: "Mrs. Tian, ​​what Rose said, You must pass through my palm so that you can hear it, so you put your ear on my palm." Mrs. Tian nodded her head and followed her words. She put her ear on Eucommia's palm and listened without moving. She turned her head sideways, her face was just facing me, I could see the changes in her expression, from worry to joy, and finally, she became very serious, and said: "Rose, must it be like this?" During these hours, we heard nothing. However, looking at Mrs. Tian's situation, she obviously heard something. After she uttered a word, she nodded again and said, "Rose, since you say so, I will naturally do as you say...Okay... ...well, I promise you I won't tell anyone." After she finished speaking those few words, she cried out again: "Rose! Rose!" Du Zhong put down his hand slowly, and said: "Her soul is gone!" Mrs. Tian burst into tears again, and shouted, "Li Dong! Li Dong!" Tian Lidong immediately said: "Turn on the light!" The big chandelier was turned on again, and Mrs. Tian walked up to Tian Lidong and said, "Lidong, Rose said..." She only said three words, and then suddenly stopped talking. From the beginning to the end, I just stared at the spirit summoning expert, Peter Huang whispered: "Do you believe it?" I immediately said: "No, I don't believe it at all, there must be a major conspiracy!" I might have spoken a little too loudly, everyone looked at me, but Du Zhong stared at me blankly with a rigid face.Mrs. Tian said: "No, Mr. Du indeed summoned the soul, and I heard her speak to me with my own ears!" I shrugged and said, "Peter, let's go!" At this time, I also found that the person who had been wearing sunglasses had also stood up and walked out. Peter Huang exchanged pleasantries with the others, causing that person to go out before us. When we went out, I saw that the man had already boarded a street car. Fortunately, my sharp eyes could still see the license plate of that street car. On the way home, Peter Huang asked me: "I also agree that there must be a conspiracy, but isn't everything that Eucommia has done too mysterious?" I replied: "At first glance, it seems very mysterious, but in fact there is Many are easy to explain." Huang Peter said: "Yes, the cover of the piano can be lifted with a black wire, and the sound of the piano can be achieved with a small tape recorder. Even Mrs. Tian's words can be heard by the small tape recorder through the palm of Du Zhong. , sent to Mrs. Tian's ears at a very low volume, but how could the keys beat by themselves?" I thought for a while and said, "I'm afraid that there are some strange things in that piano that we don't know about. Peter, I decided to go to the hall of Tian's house to investigate again tonight." He turned his head to look at me and said, "Are you going to act without the master's consent?" I nodded, and said: "Yes." Peter Huang remained silent for a while, and said, "Do you want me to go with you?" I thought for a while, and said, "No need, you have your own business, you first Find out what Mrs. Tian heard in Du Zhong's palm!" Peter Huang said: "I'll try my best." While talking, the car had already arrived at the door of my house, and a street car was driving towards me. When I saw the license plate, I couldn't help being shocked. I quickly opened the door and jumped out of the car. Get down and stop that streetcar with your hand. Because it was the same car that I saw the man with the mustache boarding just now, and it would appear near my house, and I had to ask now. I immediately asked the driver, "Your guest just now was a man with a mustache?" The driver nodded and said, "That's right." I immediately said, "Where did he get off?" The driver glanced at me and said, "Who are you?" Peter Huang came over and helped me out. He said, "I'm a private detective!" The driver pointed forward and said, "Get off there!" I looked at the place he pointed, and my heart couldn't help "thumping". The taxi driver pointed at the door of my house!I quickly asked again: "Did you make a mistake?" The taxi driver looked at me impatiently and said, "Of course I can't make a mistake!" I turned around.He said to Peter Huang, "When you were at Tian's house, did you ever pay attention to the man with the mustache and black glasses?" Peter Huang said, "I didn't notice, what's the matter?" I thought about it for a while, and decided that it's better not to say much, because the matter is at a loss, and there is no way to talk about it, so I just said: "Nothing, tomorrow, I will tell you the result of going to Tian's house tonight!" Huang Peter warned: "Be careful, it is illegal to enter someone's house without permission!" I smiled and said, "As long as you don't report the news!" We separated, and I took out the key and prepared to I went in and out through the front door, but in a flash, I turned to the back door, pushed it, and the back door was locked. I looked carefully at the keyhole, and there was no sign of prying. The key to the back door has always been kept by Lao Cai. of.Of course, if there is a lily key, it is not difficult to open the door, but that guy, after he came out of Tian's house, he came to my house, why is it?I lingered at the back door for a while, always feeling that something was unusual, so I decided to sneak into my own home to see what happened, I stepped back a few steps, and when I looked up, there was a window open on the second floor, and I wanted to see it from the inside. Climbing through that window was a breeze. In less than two minutes, I had achieved my goal. I pushed open the door and listened carefully in the dark.At this time, it was already midnight, logically, Lao Cai should have gone to bed long ago, but I heard him seem to be talking to someone, because his voice was not high, and I was upstairs again, so I just Hearing a few intermittent words, it seemed that he was begging someone for something, saying: "I... really... can't... no more... can't..." I trembled in my heart, and while my body was fluttering, I had already gone downstairs, and Lao Cai's voice fell silent. After a while, I heard Lao Cai sigh again. I quietly hid in his room and reached the door.Cai said: "Lao Cai, what are you doing?" As soon as I said those words, I heard a "bang" sound from Lao Cai's room. I knew something was wrong, so I quickly grabbed the doorknob, but the door was unlocked, and I hurriedly said, "Old Cai, are you okay?" Lao Cai's voice seemed unnatural, and said, "I'm already asleep. "I said: "Then who were you talking to just now?" Lao Cai said: "No...no, I'm afraid I was talking in my sleep." I said: "Open the door quickly!" After a minute or two, Lao Cai opened the door. I stepped in and looked around. I saw a chair fell on the ground, and there was nothing unusual about it. I fixed my eyes on Lao Cai, and said straight to the point: "Old Cai, what are you hiding from me?" Lao Cai's expression froze, and he said, "No, Li, how can I hide something... from you. "His attitude made me even more suspicious, but Lao Cai watched me grow up, so he really shouldn't have anything to hide from me! I didn't say anything more, just looked at Lao Cai, his attitude was very coy and uneasy, and said: "Ah Li, you... When did you come back?" I didn't answer his question, but said: "Lao Cai, a man with a mustache came into our house, didn't you see him?" Lao Cai's complexion became even paler, and his voice even trembled slightly, said: "No ……Have." Although he said "no", it was his expression.It was clear that he had seen that person, but why did he hide it on behalf of that person?It is unimaginable that Lao Cai would conspire with someone to harm me. But now, this unimaginable thing is already in front of my eyes.I said "hmm".Deliberately said: "Maybe I made a mistake, you go to sleep, I still have something to go out." Old Cai Weiwei agreed, and I walked out pretending that my suspicions had been dispelled, sat in the living room for a while, turned off the lights, and went up the stairs with heavy steps, but as soon as I went up the stairs, I immediately walked down and became invisible. In the dark, looking at the door of Lao Cai's room. Sure enough, as I expected, the door of Lao Cai's room opened slowly, and his bald head poked out.Looked left and right, then shrank back.I could clearly hear him saying: "Go!" Immediately afterwards, a man came out of his room furtively. Looking at the figure of the man, I could already predict that it was the Tian family. The one I paid attention to!I sneered secretly in my heart, still keeping my composure.After the man left Lao Cai's room.Walking forward gently, I saw that the direction he was going was towards a door leading to the cellar, so I followed quietly behind. 果然,来到了通向地窖的门旁,那人取出了钥匙,将门打了开来。 我只感到一阵痛心,因为地窖的钥匙,也是由老蔡保管的,如今竟落在那个人的手中,那么,那人的行事,当然是全部和老蔡串谋好了的! 我心中不禁,暗暗感叹:连老蔡也不能相信了,我还能相信什么人? 我一等那人,推开了地窖的门,立即一个箭步,窜了前去,在他刚要将门关好的时候,赶到了门前,伸手将门推住,冷冷道:“朋友,不必再玩把戏了!” 那人像是陡地吃了一惊,立即向下跃了下去,我只听得一阵“乒乓”之声。 地窖中漆也似黑,我站在门口,无疑是暴露了身形,因此,我也立即一跃而下,屏住了气息,厉声道:“这里并没有其他的出路,你还想能逃得出去么?” 我听得一阵喘息声,在我丈许开外,传了过来,我绕了一个半圆,虽然看不见什么,可是我根据声音的判断,已绕到了那人的身后,正当我要向那人扑去的时候,“拍”地一声,地窖中的电灯立即完了。 这一下变化,倒是大大地出乎我的意料之外,我首先向前,“呼”地击出一拳,立即抬起头来看时,只见站在地窖门口的,正是老蔡。我后退一步,以背靠墙,准备迎接老蔡和那个人对我的攻击,可是当我看到了那个留小胡子的人时,我不禁瞪大了眼睛,一句话也讲不出来! 虽然我眼前没有镜子,但是我相信我的神情,一定是滑稽到了极点!那个留小胡子的男人,唇上的胡子已经不见了,黑眼镜跌在一旁,帽子也滚在一边,一头长发,虽然还穿着西装,但分明是一个女子。而且,这正是我的宝贝表妹红红,她正在用力地搓她的小腿,想是刚才摔了下来,跌得着实不轻! 我吸了一口气,正想大发脾气,可是我看到了两样东西,又将我的火气,消了下去。 我所看到的第一样东西,是地窖中红红的行李,和一张帆布床。接着,我接触到了红红充满幽怨、含着泪水的眼光。 我叹了一口气,道:“红红,你这算是什么呢?” 红红不回答,反倒“哇”地一声,大哭了起来,我望向老蔡,老蔡苦着脸,道:“红红一定不让我告诉你,她说,我一讲出来,她就跳海去。”我摇了摇头,道:“那么,她根本没有离开过这所屋子?”老蔡难为情地点了点头。 我走到红红的身边,将她扶了起来,她穿的是我的西装,我立即又明白了,“红红,在我和黄彼得讲话的时候,躲在衣橱中的是你?” 红红不望我,倔强地道:“是又怎么样?”
