In July, the capital city is in the midst of raging fire.Although today is a cloudy day, the dullness before the rain not only did not eliminate the scorching heat, but made people feel a little more inexplicably irritable.

I hid in a fork in a small alley, and carefully looked at a fat man who just walked past, my target!The fat man's name is Bi Jian. He is a native of Beijing. He is 33 years old this year.

After a period of open and unannounced visits and many twists and turns, the weird old man's commission finally had some clues.Zhou Xiaomei and Zhang Qiang had disappeared from the entertainment city named 'Drunk East' for a long time, and no one knew where they went.Just when I was at a loss, a young man who happened to be a bit sloppy heard the conversation between me and the waiter, so he swayed over to talk to me.

From the mouth of this guy who was full of alcohol and looked like he could fall to the ground, I found out some news: It is said that Zhang Qiang, whom they called "Qiangzi", once had a relationship with a "Boss Bi" They are very familiar and often play together.Later, it seemed that because the girlfriend was taken away by this 'Boss Bi', the two turned their faces.Afterwards, Zhang Qiang resigned from this entertainment city, and disappeared from their circle ever since.Recently, that 'Boss Bi' seems to be engaged in some big business that brings in a lot of money. He is very busy every day, so he doesn't come to this entertainment city very often.

I "touched" along this clue, and after several investigations, I finally locked on to the fat man.After observing for a period of time, I didn't find Zhou Xiaomei beside this fat man.Based on the principle of prudence, I did not ask him directly about her whereabouts, but chose to continue to observe in the dark.Because, I instinctively felt that something was wrong with this fat man. [

His living habits are a little strange.Except for the necessary delivery, I hardly go out, and I seldom shop. Most of my meals are delivered to my home.This guy hardly has any outdoor recreational activities, and he hides in his home every day and doesn't know what he's doing.This kind of lifestyle, which is more nerdy than nerds and more staid and honest than many professors, is really far from the bastard I found, who often goes to various entertainment venues, which is surprising.

What on earth is this fat man careful about living in such a secluded life?Where did Zhou Xiaomei go?

These questions drove me to continue to observe him, and gradually, I discovered one thing...

This fat man who seldom goes out will go to a place to deliver goods every few days, and he will stay for a long time.According to the tracking record I made, his other customers did not have this kind of treatment.In order to find out if this place was his "golden house hidden beauty" place, and if it was hidden Zhou Xiaomei, this in-depth follow-up took place today.

The place where the fat man often comes to is called Juzidian, which is an old residential area located in a remote area.The dilapidated bungalows that cannot be counted are connected into a large piece in a mess, and the passages are narrow, dirty, and intricate.The place where the fat man is going is in the depths of this bungalow area. In order to avoid being discovered by him, I just observed outside the alley in the early stage and did not go deep with him.It wasn't until I followed him in today that I realized that such a place is really not suitable for tracking.

The alleys extend in all directions, with many forks, and it is impossible to predict the next move of the target. The distance is too far and it is easy to lose track. This terrain is really annoying.In order to find the final location, I had to shrink into the fork from time to time, holding a small mirror to observe the target's actions, until he turned into the fork, and then I tracked it.

Fortunately, the residents here are basically poor migrant workers, and they have already gone to work early in the morning.Even those who stayed at home were probably resting and catching up on sleep, and few people walked around in the alley.Therefore, my seemingly 'sneaky' peeping and tracking action was accidentally discovered.

The small alley was very quiet, except for the slight humming of cicadas and the slight breeze, the only sound was the fat man's footsteps in front of him.I saw in the mirror that the fat man had turned into a fork, and I hurriedly followed, wondering how far the destination was.

Walking to the side of the fork, I was just about to continue to observe with the mirror, when suddenly a gust of wind blew out from nowhere, covering my whole body with head and face covered.

This gust of wind is very strange, unlike the usual summer winds, which always carry a hint of heat.On the contrary, it was extremely cold, a bit piercing.I shivered involuntarily, and I smelled a faint fishy smell in my nose, as if I had stepped into a large cold storage in a slaughterhouse.

I looked up at the sky. Although the ink in the sky was thicker than before, there was no sign of rain for the time being. "Touching" my nose, I threw away the faint discomfort in my heart, took out the small mirror and continued to observe.The strange thing is that the obese back in the mirror seems to be covered with a layer of fog, making it difficult to see clearly.

I withdrew my hand, looked at the mirror, and my face clearly appeared in the mirror.With some doubts, he stretched out his hand again, but the scene in the mirror was still blurred.

Surprised in my heart, I slowly poked my head out from the wall, intending to see what was behind that fat man...

a woman? !

A woman wearing a Chinese blouse with fine patterns on her upper body and a long red skirt on her lower body!

She was quietly following not far behind the fat man, moving a little gracefully.

who is she?When did it appear?

The doubts in my heart made me involuntarily stare at the slender and tall figure. The heat of this gaze seemed to make her feel something, and she was about to turn around with a slight movement of her shoulders.

I quickly retracted my body and leaned against the wall quietly.After Wei Wei waited for a while, I took out the small mirror again to confirm the situation... Apart from the clear back of the fat man in the mirror, is there anything else? ! [

I was startled, and carefully looked at the terrain around Fatty.There are no forks around his current position!Where did that woman go just now?Could it be... which courtyard gate did you enter?

Before I could think about it, I heard the fat man spat hard, and the sound of footsteps became quicker in an instant.I quickly stared at the mirror, only to see that fat figure hurried forward a few steps, and suddenly looked back.I suppressed the surprise in my heart and stabilized my outstretched hand to prevent him from noticing the reflection of the shaking of the mirror.

The fat man in the mirror walked faster, almost trotting.Suddenly, he stopped again, looked back without any warning, and ran forward desperately after finding something, and turned into the fork at the end within a few steps, and disappeared.His continuous movements are strange and abrupt, as if he is evading the pursuit behind him!

I hurriedly followed, wondering in amazement: Did this guy find me?So vigilant?No, since I entered the small alley, I have followed him for a long time. If he was so vigilant, he should have already reacted.What's more, the guy turned his head back with a very frightened expression, as if he was very scared.He hasn't seen me face to face, even if he sees me, he won't be afraid!What is he afraid of?

Although my mind kept popping out questions, I didn't hesitate on my feet. I still controlled the sound of my footsteps and kept heading towards the place where he disappeared at the highest speed.

Suddenly, a feeling of being stared at appeared behind him.

I hurriedly stopped and turned around pretending to forget something, but there was nothing in the alley behind me!

I turned my head and looked around suspiciously, but I didn't find anything, but the staring feeling didn't disappear, and I was still entangled with me like a shadow.

The alley was so quiet that not even the chirping of cicadas could be heard.The breeze moved the willow branches protruding from the opposite wall, and they kept whipping against the wall, but strangely, there was no sound, as if the whole alley had become a forbidden zone without any life!

The dilapidated walls are mottled by many years.At this moment, those large and small depressions seemed to have turned into distorted and weird faces glowing with blue-gray.Those potholes where the cement has faded and the red bricks are exposed are like blood holes whose eyeballs have been gouged out, staring at me silently and viciously...

I swallowed my saliva and tried my best to stabilize my fast-paced heartbeat.He stretched out his hand and slowly grasped the handle of the knife inside his clothes, while carefully guarding against the inexplicable danger that may suddenly appear, while turning around and continuing to walk towards the fork.

Suddenly, a tragic cry came from the fork at the end.

I hurriedly quickened my pace, turned around the fork, followed the sound and ran over, and suddenly had a very bad premonition in my heart: something happened to the fat man!

This alley is very long, and the line of sight can only vaguely see the end.Some of the courtyard doors on both sides have been opened, some people are looking around, and some people have come out.After a while, some people gathered in twos and threes at the entrance of the small courtyard at the end, and kept looking into the courtyard.

As soon as I approached the crowd, I saw Bi Jian stumbling out of the small courtyard, rushing out like a madman, waving his bright red hands, yelling in an inhuman voice: "Help!! Murder! ! There is a ghost!!"

The fat man rushed through the door, his feet were cushioned by the steps, and he rolled down like a meat ball, and collapsed on the ground on his back, twitched a few times and then stopped moving.

I hurried over, touched his carotid artery, and opened my eyelids to have a look.Fortunately, it's just a coma.

What the hell happened to him in there?What kind of terrifying experience can scare a tall and strong adult man in his 30s into unconsciousness?

I looked up suspiciously and scanned the courtyard.

Suddenly, a bone-chilling feeling penetrated my body instantly.

It's her again!

I saw a woman in a brown jacket and red dress standing quietly at the door of the main house facing the courtyard.Her jet-black hair was loosely draped over her shoulders, and her facial features were so pale that her bright red lips looked extraordinarily glaring. [

I stood up and was about to go into the yard to ask her a question, but I accidentally kicked the fat man's leg lying on the ground.The moment I lowered my head and raised it again, the figure of the woman at the door of the main house disappeared without leaving a trace, as if it had never appeared before!

The faint sound of sirens in my ears dispelled my intention of going into the yard, and I silently retreated into the crowd to observe the development of the situation.

Soon, a large number of police officers surrounded the courtyard with yellow and white cordon tape.Bi Jian, who was unconscious on the ground, was also carried away on a stretcher by the emergency personnel who came later.I stood quietly among the crowd, trying to catch information from the buzzing voices in my ears.

It seems that I guessed wrong, this small courtyard is a small "pharmacy" opened by a person called "Lao Zhang", and it is unlikely to be used for "Golden House Cangjiao".However, judging from what the residents vaguely revealed, this small pharmacy is not just selling medicines, it seems to be doing other businesses in private.

an hour later.Several police officers carrying black body bags walked out of the courtyard.The body bags were one big and one small, and it was unknown who was inside them.

From the beginning to the end, I didn't see that woman being brought out. This very unreasonable situation and the weird experience just now made me feel a strange sense of familiarity.

I left the crowd, and while walking towards the car outside the alley, I took out my mobile phone and dialed the number of godfather Chi Xiangdong.After stating the ins and outs of the matter to him, I asked him for help, whether he could find a way for me to enter the scene to have a look.Godfather hesitated for a moment, and then replied that he would look at the situation after receiving the report, and then call me back later.

After hanging up the phone, I sat in the car and quietly smoked a cigarette. The strange sense of familiarity constantly surging in my heart made me feel a little uncomfortable.Also, that strange woman!Why did her pale face, which I couldn't see clearly, give me such a strange feeling of deja vu?Where do these two different familiar feelings come from?When have I had a similar experience?When did you see such a woman again?

Questions with a bit of cold air kept circling in my mind.

It seems that this seemingly simple task of finding people is very likely to bring me an unforgettable experience... I seem to smell some faint fishy smell in my nose...
