Chapter 22 Chapter 21 Laugh

"Qin Jia." I called out her name coldly, and she stopped smiling and looked at me curiously. I paused and said impatiently, "Can you stop making trouble with me?" "I didn't mess with you..." When she said this, she probably noticed my cold expression, so her tone sounded a bit unpleasant, but this was exactly the effect I wanted. "Okay, then I'm going home now, don't you want to follow me back?" I continued, my tone still bad. The meaning of what I said was obvious, and the unhappiness on Qin Jia's face suddenly increased, and she said angrily: "He Ning! Who do you take me for?!"

"How do I know who you are?" I asked back slightly mockingly. "You..." She was finally angry, so angry that she only said one word you, but couldn't continue, and then looked at me bitterly. I ignored her, turned around, and walked towards the stairs, thinking to myself at the same time: Don't follow me again... Don't follow me again... I walked all the way into the corridor, and when I reached the corner, I started to go upstairs. When I looked back, I found that Qin Jia was no longer there. I breathed a sigh of relief, and then went upstairs at a faster pace.

I still have a lot of things to do, and these things have nothing to do with Qin Jia, I don't want her to be involved in these things.Because, I vaguely feel that everyone involved will not have a good result.So, I had to push her away even though she kept trying to help me and try to make me happy. But she doesn't understand, she doesn't understand why I can't be happy no matter what, she doesn't understand how complicated things are happening around me, she doesn't understand what kind of danger she will encounter if she stays with me... Regardless of whether she is my very good friend or not, I should repay her for taking care of me and helping me so much these past few days, but the only way I can repay her now is to let her go, I don't want to thank her until I've sorted everything out, and I think she'll understand.

Yes, I have a lot of things to do right now, and I've been planning from the moment I asked her if she could get me out of the hospital. I know that although I missed the time agreed by Wang Fei, I still think he will wait for me at the Xijiao Thermal Power Plant.Besides, the "9 o'clock tonight" written on his note did not specify what month and date it was. So, does it mean that 9 o'clock tonight is also okay? Therefore, I still decided to go to the Xijiao Thermal Power Plant at 9 o'clock tonight after preparing my things. After thinking about these things, I have already gone up to the sixth floor, and came to my door, looking at the anti-theft door that Xin Jie had knocked countless times, an uncontrollable uncomfortable emotion swept over my heart.

I habitually took out the keys from my pocket, but suddenly found that I was still wearing the same hospital gown when I came out of the hospital, and all my previous clothes seemed to be packed by Qin Jia, and she didn’t leave when she left. give me back! Thinking of this, I turned around and wanted to rush downstairs to chase her, but on second thought, it was wrong, my set of clothes was only changed at Ling Zhijie's house, and there was no key to my house at all!Moreover, when I was in the air-raid shelter, I left all my belongings behind, that is to say, the keys were still in the air-raid shelter!

what to do?I stood in front of my house, but suddenly found that I didn't have the key to my house... This situation is really ironic, and what's even more ironic is that I didn't think about this embarrassing situation before! But after only a moment of anxiety, I remembered that there was a small lock-unlocking store at the entrance of the community, and decided to re-issue the key, but I heard that it is difficult to successfully match the key for this kind of anti-theft door. I can only pray that the locksmith's craftsmanship can be good. Clicked. I walked all the way to the gate of the community, and when I was about to go out, a security guard suddenly came out of a sentry box on the side, gave me a hand, and asked, "Hello! Is this Mr. He from Unit 602, Building 7?"

I stopped, nodded, and looked at him curiously. "Someone asked me to pass this to you." The security guard said and handed something over. When I saw it, it was a kraft paper envelope with nothing written on it. After thanking the security guard, I opened the envelope while walking towards the lock shop, shook it, and unexpectedly, what fell out was a key. I picked up the key and looked at it, and found that there was an obvious yellow spot on the part of the key used to pinch my fingers, as if it had been scalded by high temperature.As soon as I saw this macula and compared it with the tooth pattern of the key, I immediately realized that this key was mine, the one I thought was thrown in the air-raid shelter!

As soon as I turned around, I rushed back to the security post.Fortunately, the security guard who handed me the envelope was still there. I swallowed, walked over and asked, "Excuse me, who handed this envelope to you? When?" The security guard replied: "I don't know, it's your friend... the time is this morning..." "Is it a man? How old are you?" The security guard nodded and said, "He looks like thirty or forty, but I don't think he looks like a resident in the community. I haven't seen him before... Isn't he your friend?" "Are you wearing a hat?"

The security guard shook his head. "Do you think he's a bit weird?" "No, he's quite a normal person..." The security guard replied with a puzzled expression. "Well... thank you... wait, I want to ask, did he say anything else?" The security guard's expression became more puzzled, and he said, "No, let me give you the envelope." "Okay, thank you..." ... Wang Fei!He actually retrieved my key from the air-raid shelter, and even came to the complex just this morning!So why did he leave me the key?Did he enter 602 himself?

With these questions in mind, I went back to the door of the house, inserted the key into the lock, clicked and turned twice, the door opened, and a dull smell hit my face.Although I only left for a week, it felt like I had been away for many years. I finally returned to this home, the house where Xin Jie and I lived together for three years. In the past three years, I have opened this door like this almost every day, and I can see her fresh smile almost every day, but this time, apart from the familiar tones in the room, there is only a cold and dull silence that greets me. I stepped into the house and looked around.The things in the house are as untouched as when I left a week ago, even the surface of the moldy furniture is still the same, maybe because there has been no rain in the past few days, new mold spots have not grown again.

I went into the bedroom and drew the curtains. The afternoon sun shines into the room through the glass and screens, spreading a ray of warmth to the head of the bed.I followed the warmth and looked over, as if I saw the same winter afternoon, Xin Jie was lying on the bed and reading a book quietly, her soft hair stretched out in the sun, reflecting her fair face and clear eyes. Eyes... That picture of the past is so warm, so fascinated me... But now, there is nothing there. I looked around in the bedroom, and carefully inspected the placement of the items. After making sure that I hadn't been touched, I went to the bathroom. The door of the bathroom was ajar just like when I left. I pushed in, turned on the Yuba, and the white light illuminated this strange place, which was less than 6 square meters, but had a horrible scene in my memory and in Wang Fei’s narration. . I checked the washroom and shower carefully, but found nothing suspicious. All the items were the same as when I left, and they hadn't been moved. Seeing this, I can basically know that Wang Fei never came in, but he has the key, why didn't he come in?Are the things he said true?Is he really afraid?Too scared to set foot in this room again?And what did he mean by giving me the key?He has always refused to show his face, but has been handing me something directly or indirectly. Why?Will he still wait for me at the Xijiao Thermal Power Plant? These questions flashed through my mind one by one, but I couldn't make an accurate inference. I could only rely on my own guesses to make the next move. I walked back to the living room and stood in front of the silver Siemens double-door refrigerator, trying to open it and take out the hair from 702. I held the door handle as usual and pulled it lightly, but the refrigerator door didn't open.So I increased the strength and pulled it again. This time the force was already very strong, but it still didn’t open. Just when I was feeling confused, I suddenly found some black things protruding from the crack of the refrigerator door. .I leaned over to take a closer look, and immediately realized that something was wrong, those black things turned out to be hair! I slammed down the refrigerator door again. Unexpectedly, the whole refrigerator moved and tilted towards me. I hurriedly pushed forward to hold the refrigerator, so that it didn't really fall down.At the same time, I realized that the fact that the refrigerator door cannot be opened has something to do with the exposed hair? I leaned over to those gaps again to take a closer look, trying to see what was going on. All of a sudden, there was a "hiss—" before I could understand, the hair shrunk in. This sudden change made my whole body tremble, and I took a few steps back, looking at the The entire large refrigerator was too surprised to speak. I saw that the black hairs that were originally exposed all began to move a little bit at this moment, and they all shrank in after a while, and nothing remained outside the gap. What's in the freezer, and it's alive? ! This was my first thought, and the next second, I began to wonder, are those black things really hair?Are they really the ones I dug out of 702's freezer? I thought of the huge mass of horrible hair that appeared in the bathroom in Wang Fei's story, and thought of the wet things that I dreamed of laying around me for several nights. A violent shudder.I looked at the huge refrigerator in front of me, and I no longer had the courage to go forward to open it. Is the thing in the refrigerator really a scary monster made of hair?Is it really the monster that involved Wang Fei's wife?Is there really such a thing in this world?Did Wang Fei really lie to me?Is he really afraid of this thing so he left the key to me and dare not come in?There is also the refrigerator in 702 upstairs that is stuffed with dirt and tied up with flowers. Is it really for trapping this monster? All the questions came flooding in with great panic. After hesitating for a few seconds, I quickly walked through the living room, opened the security door, rushed downstairs, and rushed to the security guard box. The security guard for my key is still there, so I gasped and asked, "Hello! Can you come with me? Please!" The security guard probably noticed my eager expression, and was about to come out, but he glanced at his side again, and said apologetically, "Sorry, my colleague just walked away. The guard box needs someone on duty, so I can't leave." I immediately said in a more anxious tone: "Then you hurry up and let your colleague come over, something serious has happened!" The security guard also became anxious, and asked: "Mr. He, what's the matter? Please speak slowly." "I can't explain clearly here, it's too late! Get your colleague over quickly! Don't you have a walkie-talkie, use the walkie-talkie!" "Okay, don't worry, I'll call him right away!" The security guard finally picked up the walkie-talkie and started calling. After a while, an impatient voice came from the intercom, as if he had just woken up, asking what was the matter. While looking at me, the security guard said to the intercom: "Brother Cheng, someone on my side has said something big. I think he seems to be in a hurry. Come here quickly!" The intercom still asked impatiently what was going on. The security guard looked at me again, and I had no choice but to say, "My house is on fire!" The security guard was startled, and repeated the past: "His house is on fire!" Sure enough, the person on the walkie-talkie roared, followed by another rustling sound, as if he was starting to rush over. The man named Brother Cheng arrived at the guard box after a while, and when he saw me, he said, "Why is it you again? Is your house on fire?" Only now did I recall that he was the security captain, in his forties, about the same size as Ling Zhijie, but with a beard on his face, we used him to retrieve the surveillance video that night Xin Jie disappeared. So I nodded eagerly, thinking that if I didn't trick him into setting fire, he would definitely not follow me back. Two minutes later, when I came to my door, Brother Cheng saw that it was really hot: "Is your house on fire? Where is the fire?!" While opening the anti-theft door, I said, "I'm sorry, Brother Cheng, there is no fire. I asked you to come here to show you something." It is estimated that Brother Cheng heard my sincere tone and became less angry, and asked, "What is it?" I walked into the living room, pointed to the refrigerator in front of me and said, "It's in there." Brother Cheng took a look at me and wanted to go to open the refrigerator. I quickly grabbed him and said, "The thing inside is alive, be careful!" Brother Cheng turned his head and asked, "Live? Dog? Turtle? Crocodile?" "No, I don't know anything, but it's dangerous!" "You don't know what? How did it get in the refrigerator?" "I do not know either." "Okay, you stand here." Brother Cheng walked into the kitchen while talking, took out a knife, and went straight to open the refrigerator. Now I didn't stop him, I thought the refrigerator door still couldn't be opened, but I saw Brother Cheng just gently pulled it, and the refrigerator door opened...
