Chapter 3 Chapter Two Visiting the Strange Resident

His sudden appearance already made me wonder, but when he opened his mouth, he actually spoke the Dharma in this way, which was even more shocking. Did the master tell Deng Shi that I asked him about Deng Shi? This is a very embarrassing thing, I believe the master would not do this, so how did he know? After thinking about it for a very short time, I thought that he might have meant something else by this remark, not the matter I had just discussed about him with my master.So I smiled lightly, nodded to him, and said vaguely, "That's true, Mr. Deng." Unexpectedly, Deng Shi was not polite, and he didn't care about my embarrassment at all, and said: "And you are such an immoral person."

This made me very sullen, and I said coldly, "Sir, I don't understand what you said." Deng Shi was even more aggressive: "I want to warn you, don't pay attention to other people's affairs." I sneered: "I should decide what I should care about." Deng Shi smiled "hehe", his laughter made hair stand on end, and there was an indescribable discomfort.I stood up, and I believe my face was full of hostility. The two of us looked at each other, and after a while, Deng Shi suddenly laughed. There was an extremely humble and contemptuous look in his smile, and then he turned around suddenly and walked out of the study .

My mood can not be calm for a long time.I have an indescribable interest in Deng Shi. What kind of person is he?Why earlier, I have seen his two hands? The owner said that he had lived in India and other places. Could it be that he is a master of Indian illusions? India's magic is already very famous, but no matter how amazing the magic is, it is nothing more than diverting people's attention. If there is a magic that can make a person's hands move freely, it is not credible. Weird thing. I can't know exactly what kind of person Deng Shi is, so I decided to study him. I also walked out of the study, found Bai Su, and carefully pointed Deng Shi to her.

When Bai Su saw the opal ring, if I hadn't immediately covered her mouth, she might have yelled! I whispered: "I decided to follow him after the dance, you might as well go back first." Bai Su said hastily: "I'm a little worried." I smiled and said: "Don't be stupid, I haven't gone through any kind of storm, what are you afraid of?" Bai Su still looked worried: "Of course I know that you have gone through many storms, but this person... this matter... I always feel an indescribable sense of mystery and eccentricity, you... how about I go together?"

I laughed: "I'm stalking people, do you think that the more people there are, the better?" Bai Su let out a long sigh and said nothing more. I patiently comforted her with a few more words, which I thought were absolutely unnecessary in my heart, but I have to say, to follow a person who behaves a little weirdly, it is really difficult for me. Insignificant little things, why all the fuss? I was delayed in the banquet for nearly an hour, and then I took my leave of the host first, saying that I had something to do and I had to go first. Naturally, the master wouldn't force me to stay, so I stepped out of the bungalow, took a deep breath of the cold air coming towards me, and my mind immediately cleared up a lot.

I hadn't gone far before I stopped, and I hid behind a bush.The place is so nice that I can see anyone or any car.And no matter turning left or right, I can easily jump on the rear of the car, and the person I want to follow will take me to where I should go. The weather is very cold, and it won't be long before I have to run lightly to increase my body temperature.I waited for forty minutes behind the bushes before I saw Deng Shi come out. To my surprise, he didn't use the car. He put his hands in his coat pockets, held his head up, and whistled all the way. After he got out of the big iron gate, he walked to the left.

He was on foot, so it was more convenient for me to follow him. I waited for him to walk about ten steps, and then jumped out from the bushes. At that time, Deng Shi was about to turn the corner, I hurried forward two steps, and reached the corner, Deng Shi was still in front, and I kept a certain distance from him.Although it was late at night, the streets were still very lively because of the festival, which was even more beneficial for my tracking. I followed him street by street, and gradually came to the outskirts. I suddenly felt that the road I was walking was very familiar, and it was the road leading to the building where Li Chengqing lived.

When I discovered this, I looked up and saw that building was already ahead.Apart from this building, there is no other building ahead.Deng Shi lives in this building! Now that I've confirmed this point, I naturally don't need to rush to follow him and expose myself.I slowed down, until I saw Deng Shi entering the building, and then I ran forward at a very fast speed. When I ran into the lobby of that building, I saw an elevator rising until it stopped on the "twenty-third" floor. Half a minute after the elevator stopped, the elevator began to descend again . Deng Shi lives on the twenty-third floor!

This follow-up was very fruitful. Deng Shi lived on the lower floor of Lichengqing, so at least he can be sure that the strange things that happened in Lichengqing's house may have something to do with him. After confirming this point, it will of course be much easier to proceed in the future. I was in a very relaxed mood. I got on another elevator, and when I got to the 23rd floor, I stepped out. There are two residential units on the 23rd floor, and the doors are closed. I can't be sure which unit is Deng Shi's residence, and more importantly, I haven't thought about what I should do even after confirming Deng Shi's residence.

Should I go straight to him and expose his pretense, or gather more evidence?I thought about it for a while, and decided to start with the latter, because Deng Shi's attitude towards me in Professor Yang's home was already very bad. After I decided on the steps to proceed, I went up to another floor. I had the key, opened the door, and walked in. The first thing I did was to make a phone call with Bai Su who was far away at Professor Yang’s home. I asked her to hurry home, bring some useful things, and then go to Liliqing's house together. I also told her that just tonight, there will be answers to a series of strange things.

Bai Su came sooner than I expected. Fifteen minutes later, she arrived with some things I asked her to bring, including a microwave magnifying eavesdropping instrument and a eavesdropping instrument made by using the principle of refraction. peeping mirror and so on. Before she arrived, I already knew that Deng Shi's apartment was under the platform, because I looked through all the windows, and only the windows below the platform had light coming out. So, as soon as Bai Su arrived, we went out of the platform, and I extended the tube of the eavesdropping device to make the microwave oscillator hang down, and then put the earphones into my ears. I aimed the lens of the periscope at the window below. But I couldn't see anything, because the window was covered by thick curtains, and the suction cup of the listening device was sucked to the glass window, so that as long as there was a sound in the room, I could hear it. Bai Su waited for me to finish this before saying: "What did you hear?" I shook my head. "Nothing, but I think we'll just have to wait a minute and—" When I got here, I stopped. I was there and I heard the noise.It was a very indescribable sound, as if someone was constantly beating a very dull drum rhythmically. That sound lasted for three or four minutes, and I heard Deng Shi's voice again. Deng Shi was indeed in that room, which made me very happy.Deng Shi seemed to be talking to himself, but I couldn't hear what he was talking about. In the end, it was that kind of "Dada" sound again. Deng Shi also stopped talking, and the "dada" sound continued. I listened to it for a long time, and I changed to Bai Su to listen to it, but I couldn't hear any other sounds.After half an hour, we were all getting a little impatient. Bai Su said: "The opal ring, we will definitely not admit it wrong, since we know that he lives below, why not visit him and question him." I shook my head: "This is not very good, he is very unfriendly to me, we may make trouble for ourselves." Bai Su said: "Then, shall we continue to listen?" I stood up and stretched my waist. I squatted on the ground for too long, and my legs were a little sore. I said: "We might as well go to the house to rest for a while, and wait for half an hour to listen again. At that time, we may hear other sounds, so we can deduce what he is doing." Bai Su didn't say anything anymore, we walked towards the house together. However, we had only taken a step before we were stunned. We saw the glass door being opened. At this time, the cold wind on the platform is quite strong, but if it is said that the strong wind at this time can blow open the heavy glass door, that is something that no one would believe. In fact, the two of us immediately rejected the idea that the glass door was blown open by the wind, because we saw something that pushed the door open—it was a pair of hands, a pair of hands that did not belong to any body! The right hand held the doorknob and pushed the glass door open. On the finger of the right hand was an opal ring.The left hand is holding something, which is a porcelain ashtray, which is a very common thing placed in the blue house. The distance between the two hands is just like when they were born on a human body! Bai Su and I were close together, at that moment, because of the excessive shock, we couldn't speak any words, and couldn't make any movements! We watched the hands push open the door, and suddenly, at an extremely fast speed, they passed the stone edge of the platform and disappeared. After another five minutes, Bai Su said: "That's an incomplete invisible person!" The Invisible Man, that's kind of like it. Because we can't see anything but those hands. But if it is an invisible person, why would the hands be visible to us?Moreover, if it was an invisible man, how could he retreat so quickly? The invisible man just makes people invisible, not that the body does not exist. If he falls from the twenty-fourth floor, he will also fall to his death.Therefore, an invisible person must not take this way beyond Shi Yan's disappearance. The reason why the pair of hands cannot disappear in this way is because it is just a pair of hands without any body! So Bai Su said that it was an invisible person, I disagree.However, I couldn't tell what it was. My mind was so chaotic that it was hard for me to think. We were silent for a long time, and it was Bai Su who spoke first: "Those hands stole an ashtray, what does that mean, what secret is in that ashtray, worth it to steal?" Bai Su's question raised many new doubts, which made my already confused mind even more confused.I impulsively said: "We don't have to guess, let's go down to see him." Bai Su was surprised and said: "Who are you seeing?" I said: "Go to the 23rd floor and meet Deng Shi, who is the owner who took the hand of the ashtray in the green house just now!" Bai Su said: "If he is an invisible one──" I didn't wait for her to finish, so I replied almost rudely: "He is not an invisible person, he...he..." He's not an invisible man, but what is he?But I can't say it! Bai Su is indeed a good wife. I interrupted her in a rough voice. Instead of blaming me, she gently held my hand and said softly: "Let's go to the house to rest for a while before we talk about it." , do you need a drink to calm down?" I couldn't help feeling a little ashamed in my heart, followed Bai Su, walked into the glass door, we sat down on the sofa, Bai Su poured me a glass of brandy, and I drank slowly. Ten minutes later, my mood was much calmer, but the decision I made when I was agitated still remained unchanged. I put down my glass: "Let's go and see him, sitting here and guessing, it's useless. Let's go see him!" Bai Su spread out his hands: "Will he welcome us?" I said: "He is not welcome, we also want to see him." Bai Su stood up: "Okay, the two of us are together, we have experienced all kinds of things, so we won't be afraid of him, let's go." She had already started to walk towards the door. I turned off the lights in the Green House and went to the door. Just as we were about to open the door and go outside, it occurred to me that I had forgotten to lock the glass door leading to the terrace.I turned around and was about to walk forward. However, the moment I turned around, I was stunned again. At this time, the lights in the house were turned off, and although the light outside was dark, it was still brighter than inside. Therefore, people standing in the house could see some of the situation on the outside platform. When I turned around, I saw a pair of feet. That pair of feet jumped off the stone edge, landed on the platform, and walked forward step by step. Bai Su obviously saw those feet too, she held my arms tightly, without saying a word, I watched those feet walk by step by step, and reached the outside of the glass door. It was a pair of feet with calves attached. It was wearing moccasins and woolen socks. It was the same pair of feet that Liqing had seen and described to me.It came to the glass door, raised its right foot, pushed towards the glass door, and slowly pushed the glass door open. At this time, Bai Su and I were terrified in our hearts, it is really indescribable.But it’s okay, my thinking ability hasn’t disappeared due to panic, and when I saw the right foot pushing open the glass door, I at least knew that my conjecture of “not an invisible person” was not wrong. Because if it was an invisible person, he would definitely use his invisible hand to push open the glass door.But not now, because it's just a pair of feet, so he uses his right foot to push the door open! After pushing the door open with the right foot, the left foot also pushed in, and the glass door flicked shut again, and the two feet had already entered the house. Bai Su and I were close together, at that moment, we couldn't do anything, we just looked at those feet and walked forward step by step. When those feet walked forward, it was not very smooth. They hit the tea table and the sofa again, but they finally came to us, came to us. Bai Su screamed suddenly, and I also screamed and kicked forward. My hard kick was hitting the right shin of that foot.The strength of that kick was very strong, because even my toes were aching, and those feet retreated outwards in a hurry. That was absolutely true, I saw its right foot staggering when those feet retreated, obviously because it was in pain from my kick. This made my back dripping with cold sweat, as if there were dozens of icy worms crawling on my back. A pair of feet that don't belong to anyone. At that moment, we all felt slightly dizzy because of the excessive surprise. So, how those feet left the house, we don't know.When I came to my senses, those feet were of course no longer in the room.I slowly breathed a sigh of relief and turned my head to look at Bai Su.Bai Su's complexion was extremely pale. I comforted her: "Don't be afraid, look, those feet are not scary. When you scream and I kick them, they will go away. What's so scary?" Bai Su shook his head: "It's not that I'm afraid, we are a complete person, and of course we won't be afraid of a pair of incomplete feet. I just feel... that it's disgusting!" That is indeed disgusting, but under the current situation, I can't admit it, I have to calm down Bai Su first, I immediately leaned over and whispered: "I know you feel sick There's a reason!" Bai Su blushed, and with a "Pooh", turned her head and ignored me, the tense and terrifying atmosphere that almost paralyzed the mind was immediately relieved. I walked back and forth a few steps: "I'll take you back first, and then I'll come back here to see Deng Shi." Bai Su said: "No, I will go with you." I hurriedly said: "No, Deng Shi may be a weird thing that we have never encountered before, you'd better not go there." Bai Su no longer argues with me, but that doesn't mean that she has agreed with me.She walked towards the door, opened it, and said, "Come on, let's go down together." I made a helpless look, and we went out of the apartment where Li Chengqing lived, and walked down one floor to the 23rd floor.There are two entrances on the 23rd floor. According to the direction of the window of Deng Shi's residence, I concluded that his residence is the entrance to the left of the elevator. I stood at his door and looked around, but I didn't find the bell, so I knocked on the door with my hand. I knocked for about two minutes before I heard Deng Shi's voice coming from inside. He said in a rough voice, "Who is it?" I found it very difficult to answer, so I was stunned for a while, but Bai Su said: "It is an uninvited guest, but please open the door." Deng Shi's voice became even more impatient, he said loudly: "Go, go, what unexpected guest?" I went on to say: "Mr. Deng, we just met at Professor Yang's ball. I'm Wesley. It was my wife Bai Su who spoke just now. Please open the door." Deng Shi didn't make a sound for a while, and I guessed that he wouldn't open the door, so I started to think about whether I should force my way in now, or wait another two or three hours and sneak in with a lily key. But just as I was thinking about this, there was a "click" sound, and the closed door opened a crack. From that crack, we could see half of Deng Shi's body. With that contrived and proud expression: "I can't be considered acquaintance with you two, what do you mean by coming here?" Bai Su said "Oh": "Since we are here, why don't you invite us to come in and have a seat?" Deng Shi hesitated again before saying, "Please!" He fully opened the door and took two steps back. When Deng Shi's body took two steps back, Bai Su and I both had our hearts jump wildly. At that moment, we all saw the opal ring on Deng Shi's hand.He wore moccasins and woolen socks on his feet, and what surprised us even more was that when he withdrew, his right foot appeared to be limping and limping. That was the result of my heavy kick just now, which hit his right shin. I almost dare to conclude that if I rolled up the trousers of his right leg at this time, I would definitely find a bruise on his right shin! That pair of hands, that pair of feet undoubtedly belonged to Deng Shi, but why did we see them alone several times?What is going on here? Bai Su and I stood at the door, Deng Shi raised his eyebrows: "Please!" Only then did we walk inside, face Deng Shi, and sat down on the sofa. I originally estimated that there might be many weird things in Deng Shi's house, but in fact there are not, and even if there are, they are at most just some carvings from India, Turkey, and Egypt. A mysterious feeling, that is the mystery of the East.But it is quite common to use this kind of carving for decoration. What really surprised both of us again was an ashtray on the coffee table. It was a porcelain ashtray in the shape of a lotus leaf. This ashtray was originally on the tea table in the establishment green room, but we saw with our own eyes that it was taken out of the establishment green room by a pair of hands that did not belong to anyone. After we sat down, the atmosphere seemed very awkward, I couldn't think of how to start, Deng Shi looked at us impatiently, and the embarrassing silence lasted for two minutes, Deng Shi said coldly: "Okay, you guys What are you looking for me for?" I coughed and cleared my throat, and I decided to get straight to the point, so I said: "Mr. Deng, we must tell you that in the past half an hour, we have been upstairs, on the 24th floor, where Mr. Qing's residence was established. Inside." I thought Deng Shi would at least turn pale with shock when he said this, because since we were on the twenty-fourth floor in the past half an hour, we must have known his secret. But Deng Shi acted as if nothing had happened, and didn't even twitch his eyebrows, so he asked coldly: "So what?" Alright, right?" As soon as he heard me say that, Deng Shi stood up suddenly. He stretched out his hand and pointed at the door: "Get out, you two crazy people, get out!" I also stood up: "Mr. Deng, why are you doing this? We have seen everything." Deng Shi growled: "What did you see?" I am not to be outdone: "Your hands, your feet!" Deng Shi shouted: "Madman, you are two lunatics!" He suddenly rushed out of the room, came to the opposite door, and pressed the electric bell vigorously. I don't know what his intention was, the door was already opened Kailai, a middle-aged man, wearing a nightgown, came out. When I saw the middle-aged man, I couldn't help but startled. I knew that man, he was a senior detective of the police, his surname was Yang, and I was quite familiar with him, but I didn't know that he lived here, so I couldn't help being very embarrassed when I saw him. Inspector Yang saw me and was stunned: "Ah, Wesley, it's you. Mr. Deng, what's the matter?" After all, he is indeed a qualified old detective. As he said, he looked at Deng Shi and then at me: "Is there a little unpleasantness between you?" Deng Shi stared: "Inspector Yang, do you know this person?" Inspector Yang hurriedly said: "Of course, I know him, he is famous──" However, before Detective Yang finished speaking, Deng Shi interrupted him impolitely: "No matter who he is, I don't know him, but he forced his way in. Detective Yang, we He's licensed for a gun, and in that case, if I shoot him, is he asking for trouble?" Deng Shi's words are very domineering, but his words can't scare me, I said coldly: "Mr. Deng, I know what you do!" This guy Deng Shi seemed to be very proficient in the law, he immediately said: "What did I do, you tell me, you have to be careful what you say, I can sue you for defamation at any time." Meeting Deng Shi, there will be no happy results, which is already in my expectation, but it is also unexpected that the quarrel is so stiff. I really wanted to beat him up desperately, but Bai Su also came out and pulled me a step away.Deng Shi cursed loudly: "Bastard!" Then, he retreated and closed the door with a "bang". Bai Su and I smiled wryly at Inspector Yang, and Inspector Yang pointed at Deng Shi's door: "This is a strange person!" My heart skipped a beat, Inspector Yang lives next door to him, so does Inspector Yang know a little about Deng Shi's actions? I hurriedly said, "Are you already asleep? I have something to disturb you. Would you like to talk to me?" He hesitated for a moment, obviously he didn't welcome me as an uninvited guest, but he still agreed: "Okay, I'm awake anyway, it doesn't matter." Bai Su and I walked in together, and when we got to one of his study rooms, I said, "Detective Yang, have you ever seen some strange things, for example, hands that don't belong to anyone, or just A pair of feet, and the hands and feet belong to Deng Shi?" Inspector Yang frowned. He was obviously trying to understand what I said, but he really couldn't understand it. No wonder, in fact, that if I were ignorant of everything, I would be baffled as to what they were talking about if I heard it said to me.
