Chapter 5 Can't Sleep
morning.

A section of Qinglongtou Highway was blocked by several police cars on both sides, and a cordon was set up.

"Sir, it was I who called the police. When I passed the delivery in the morning, I saw a taxi parked there in the distance. When I looked closer, I noticed someone was lying on the ground."

In front of a seafood delivery truck on the side of the road, a fishmonger in his 40s with a vicissitudes on his face was making on-site notes to two policemen.

"What time is it?" one of the female police officers asked.

"I usually leave the market at 04:30, drive over..." The middle-aged fishmonger scratched his head, and suddenly gestured with his fingers, "Five o'clock, almost five o'clock."

"So early for delivery?"

A plainclothes woman next to the policewoman grinned in disbelief, "The fish market hasn't even opened yet..."

"Sir, it's early, I have to go to Tsuen Wan, the New Territories, and cross the sea..." The middle-aged fishmonger hurriedly explained.

"Ban Niu, if you don't understand, just say a few words less."

The policewoman rolled her eyes at the plainclothes beside her, stopped the pen in her hand, and stared at the fishmonger who delivered seafood and asked, "Then did you see anyone else when you passed by?"

The fishmonger was a little flustered by the policewoman's stare, and quickly shook his head: "No, there is no one on this road in the morning, sir, I really called the police..."

buzz-

Just as the middle-aged man spoke, a roar of the engine sounded.

A Toyota car stopped in front of the cordon, and a middle-aged man in a neat suit stepped out of the car, and in his co-pilot sat a charming beauty.

"Wow, it's on time. Sir Li has a new partner."

The plainclothes man named Manniu looked at the beautiful woman on the Toyota sedan, his eyes widened, showing an envious expression.

"Well done."

The policewoman next to her also noticed the beautiful woman sitting on the passenger side, and angrily bumped a plainclothes man named Man Niu with her elbow, and trotted to the middle-aged man in a suit.

"Abo, how is the situation?"

The middle-aged man in a suit who got out of the car looked around the scene and asked the policewoman who walked in front of him.

"Li sir, we have already found out that the deceased's name was Lin Guoyu, a night-shift taxi driver. We found a [-]-centimeter-long boning knife beside the taxi, but there was no wound on the deceased. The front identification team Colleagues said that the deceased died from internal bleeding caused by a rib fracture caused by a powerful impact, which pierced the heart and lungs."

The policewoman known as Abo stood in front of the middle-aged man in a suit and reported on it in a straight-forward manner.

"Bumped?" the middle-aged man in a suit asked casually.

"No, the colleagues of the appraisal team said that there were no signs of vehicle collision at the scene. If it was hit by a car, something should be found at the scene. And it has been raining from last night to the early morning. The boning knife we ​​have at the scene There is no way to extract fingerprints."

The policewoman Abo shook her head, and asked as if she suddenly remembered something, "By the way, Sir Li, the media is coming over, do you want to report it to the media?"

"You want to cause a taxi strike in Hong Kong?" The middle-aged man in a suit glanced at the policewoman, Bo, "Let's not talk about it, if it really doesn't work, just say that the taxi driver got off halfway and was hit by a car coming up from behind. "

"Then...then we won't investigate?" Policewoman Abo asked blankly.

"Of course I'll check."

The middle-aged man in the suit said angrily, "This is obviously a murder case, stupid, okay, I'm leaving."

"correct--"

Before the middle-aged man in the suit left, he added, "Look for any witnesses nearby, infer from the time of the deceased's death, and see if anyone saw anything on the front and rear roads."

"Yes sir!" Policewoman A BO responded quickly.

"Wow, Sir Li is so dashing."

Watching the Toyota sedan leave, the policeman named Manniu walked up to Abo, full of envy.

"It's work!" Abo threw the record in his hand to the other party.

"Why?! Mr. Li doesn't want to see you, so don't take me out!" Man Niu couldn't help shouting when he saw Ah Bo's appearance.

"You haven't seen how powerful Li Sir was before!"

Ah Bo turned his head and glanced at the bull, his chest and abdomen rose and fell, and he still seemed to be a little suffocated.

"Blood Detective, who doesn't know."

The bull pouted.

"Madam!"

At this moment, a uniformed police officer ran towards the two of them quickly. "A family member just reported that their daughter was kidnapped by a taxi driver last night."

……

Longteng Street, not far from Qinglong Wharf, is not far from the wide street, and there are many shops.

In terms of population density on Hong Kong Island, even if it is not a prosperous area on the Qinglongtou Wharf, because of the diversion of the wharf, there is still a large population gathering.

In the morning, it was the busiest time on the street. Someone in front of the small store was loudly lowering prices, the sound of cutting was heard from time to time in the hardware store, and the front of the restaurant was steaming.

On the sidewalk below the various billboards, there are well-dressed working people, workers carrying various goods in singlets and slippers, and old people hobbling with paper skins.

The streets are full of traffic, private cars, taxis, freight cars, lamas whistle constantly, a hot and lively scene.

In the room on the third floor of a hotel called Zhongjie Hotel on the edge of Longteng Street.

clack clack-

The rubbing sound of crisp scissors cutting things sounded from time to time.

After a while, the sound of cutting things stopped, and the sound of running water sounded again.

Yang Chuju washed his face and head with a handful of water, stood in the narrow bathroom, and looked at himself reflected in the mirror.

Thin face, high cheekbones, slightly sunken eyes, calm and indifferent.

His messy yellow hair had been cut into an inch by him, and there was a dark red scar on the top of his forehead, which soon formed a scab, like a thick centipede lying on it.

There are many scars all over the body, the chest is covered with bruises, the ribs are raised, the limbs are thin, and the abdomen is sunken.

"This is who I am now!"

Yang Chu looked at the face and body in the mirror, and there was no confusion in consciousness. This weak and scarred body is now himself.

Standing silently in front of the mirror for a while, Yang Chu opened the bathroom door and came to the room.

"...Yesterday, the Happy Valley Racecourse staged a gong-to-grass gong battle. Jockey Moreira won the final match at the end of the gong day, and will continue to be strong in the Happy Valley. The first race has already won people with "signs"..."

A black and white TV in the corner of the bed was broadcasting yesterday's horse racing news.

After Yang Chu left Qingshan Highway, he spent 450 Hong Kong dollars to stay in this small hotel in Zhongjie on Longteng Road.

The hotel room is only about seven or eight square meters, probably because the windows are small and blocked by other buildings. Although it is now ten o'clock in the morning, the room looks a little dark if the lights are not turned on.And because the building is old and has not been ventilated for a long time, the air is always filled with a faint musty smell deposited by long-term humidity.

After coming out of the bathroom, Yang Chu walked to the bed and sat down, reaching out and raising one of the several plastic bags on the bedside table in front of him.

First, I took out the half bottle of "Huang Daoyi" in the plastic bag, wiped the bruised and swollen parts of the body and the red and swollen bones, and then took out the gauze on the wound on the head to absorb the water droplets. , apply the plaster, and finally wrap it twice with gauze.

Finally, Yang Chu took out three lunch boxes from another plastic bag on the bedside table.

Two servings of barbecued pork and one serving of goose legs were ordered by the hotel staff.

Yang Chu picked up the disposable chopsticks, opened the boxed lunch, and pulled it into his mouth. He picked up the rice very quickly, but chewed every mouthful, and the action of eating was like a food processing machine.

After eating one box of lunch, Yang Chu didn't eat the second one immediately, sitting on the bed and slowly closed his eyes.

Soon, a cooing sound came from Yang Chu's abdomen.

Yang Chu is controlling stomach and intestinal peristalsis, speeding up the digestion and absorption of food.

Naturally, his digestive system has not touched the decomposition and absorption of nutrients in the stomach and intestines, but like controlling the beating of the heart, he has tried it once before, and he can completely secrete more gastric juice by speeding up blood circulation. , Peristalsis makes food and gastric juice more fully mixed, so that the digestive system can digest and absorb food faster.

After about five or six minutes, Yang Chu opened his eyes again, picked up another lunch box, and continued to pull it into his mouth.

Repeating this, Yang Chu spent almost twenty minutes to finish the three lunches.

Throw the disposable lunch box on the side of the trash can not far from the bedside table. The trash can is already filled with bags of various bread and milk.

These are all eaten by Yang Chu.

Counting what Yang Chu ate this morning, it was enough for ordinary people to eat for several days.

The benefit of a large amount of food intake and nutritional supplementation is that Yang Chu's body recovered in a very fast time.

Except for torn ligaments and bones that cannot be recovered immediately, Yang Chu at this time can already feel that this body no longer has the sluggish feeling of exhaustion.

After eating these things, Yang Chu closed his eyes, his muscles relaxed, and he lay flat on the bed, motionless.

When the sports department is not doing any activities, his brain consciousness does not need to spend too much energy on controlling the operation of the body's circulation and respiratory system.

This kind of repetitive and regular work, after the brain consciousness gradually adapts, just like a skilled skilled worker, it becomes more and more handy.

It can even take care of other systems relatively easily to ensure that the internal operation of the body will not be disordered.

At this time, Yang Chu was finally able to think a little about his current situation.

He killed two people.

One is the gangster in the warehouse. The name on the other party's ID card is Chen Yaowei. Yang Chu opened the room in this hotel with the Hong Kong dollars left in the other party's ID card wallet.

The other is the taxi driver Lin Guoyu.

The former is related to some incidents that Yang Chu's identity before transmigration was involved in. After the gangster named Chen Yaowei died, two more gangsters ran away. He didn't know how things would develop.

As for Lin Guoyu, the taxi driver, although the other party seemed to be a neuropath and kidnapped the passengers, Yang Chu killed the other party, which can be said to be brave.

But it is still a lot of trouble if you really want to be caught by the police and get involved in the judicial process.

Moreover, it is completely uncertain whether the predecessor of his body has a criminal record, or other things.

Living in this hotel, he is not safe, and it is likely that he will be found in a short time, and it can even be said that he is in some unknown danger.

only--

Yang Chu didn't take these two things too seriously.

He didn't have time to think about it further, or it was not the most important thing for him at this moment.

At this time, Yang Chu was facing a problem that made him feel that he was in a life-or-death situation all the time - he couldn't sleep.

Not even a short nap.

His body lost the subconscious of biological instinct, whether it was the operation of the internal blood circulation, breathing, digestion and other systems, or the external walking and movement, all depended on his main consciousness to control.

This allows Yang Chu to control the beating of the heart, making the body burst out with great strength and flexibility for a short period of time, and also enables him to control the digestive system and better supplement nutrition.

But in the same way, this also caused Yang Chu to have no way to let his consciousness fall asleep, or in other words, he did not dare to fall asleep, and he had to stay awake all the time.

Once he goes to sleep, his cerebral consciousness becomes silent and no longer continues to operate the various systems of the body, his heart stops beating, he can no longer breathe, and he will die again.

And Yang Chu's consciousness woke up in this body, although it was less than a day, but his brain consciousness did not stop for a moment, and he has been consuming energy to keep running.

By now, Yang Chu has felt that his spirit is beginning to be exhausted.

This is also one of the reasons why Yang Chu needs to eat a lot of food.

The operation of the brain consumes a lot of energy all the time.

Now, Yang Chu can still stay awake, but he also clearly feels that he can't last long like this.

The problem of inability to sleep is not solved, and his life is counting down every moment.

Once there is no way to rest his brain, he only needs to stop for a while and doze off in the middle, and there is only one result to wait for.

It's not like ordinary people can keep the body running even after falling asleep.

Ordinary people often wake up from sleep inexplicably suddenly, or their body suddenly shakes, and this very strange reaction occurs.

In fact, this is the subconscious mind that the body is about to die, sending a bioelectric pulse, which stimulates the person to wake up.

And Yang Chu has no subconscious. Once he falls asleep, his body will no longer function and his subconscious will not be stimulated, and he will really die completely.

"I have to find a solution as soon as possible."

Yang Chu opened his eyes and stood up from the bed.

He wants to find a solution as soon as possible while he can still support it.

After hastily put on the half-dried clothes in the bathroom, Yang Chu opened the door and left the hotel room.
