Pollution throughout the territory

Xia Ren was thinking about another thing.

Why did the man who jumped into the river just now become an infected person? Where was he contaminated?

Is it another tragic doll?

"No, that young man was thin and thin, and he was very different from the person I accidentally caught a glimpse of last night. Even if it is a tragic doll, the one who died first should be the one last night."

Also, it is still a mystery whether the black shadow is Gao Le.

Xia Ren had a headache.

This world is really not safe at all.

I don’t know how Zhao Mingyue kept the tragedy doll in the first place. So far, anyone who owns the doll seems to be unable to escape bad luck.

Even now Xia Ren is beginning to wonder whether it was the doll that caused the tragedy, or whether an already tragic person happened to own the doll.

Every dead person had conditions that could threaten their life before they owned the doll. Li Xuan was subjected to long-term violence by his mother, Zeng Shuyi's crush on his teacher was revealed, and taxi driver Shen Hua's family conflicts reached a breaking point. All of this seemed to have nothing to do with the appearance of the doll, but it happened to be such a coincidence.

It's no wonder that the dolls are constantly being passed around in people's hands for verification. If Xia Ren wants to take in the other person, he may have to survive various accidents before he can be recognized.

While he was thinking about these things, Zhu Youqian had already parked his car in front of the clothing store.

Xia Ren's clothes were soaked because he jumped into the river. He didn't pay much attention to it. He just kept it wet. It wouldn't take long to dry it anyway, but it would be better if he could change into something clean.

Just getting out of the car and looking at the floor-to-ceiling windows in front of him and the luxurious decoration inside, Xia Ren decisively turned around and went to an ordinary clothing store on the opposite street.

He was not willing to buy such expensive clothes, let alone buy them with other people's money.

When he saw the luxury car parked in front of his house, the sharp-eyed salesman was already ready to recommend his most expensive clothes. However, he didn't expect that the sales performance would fly away just as he saw it. He couldn't help but curl his lips and said, "The richer you are. People are getting stingy!"

Zhu Youqian looked at Xia Ren's back and laughed dumbly.

This girl has a special obsession with these little things.

When Xia Ren changed his clothes and came out, he was still holding a bag in his hand, which contained his original clothes.

Next to the Pagani, a large pickup truck parked at some point. In the back of the pickup truck, there was a large object covered with a cloth, making it impossible to see what was inside.

Zhu Youqian stood on the side of the road and handed a document to his secretary.

Seeing Xia Ren coming over, his eyes lit up: "Hey, I look even more beautiful in this outfit."

Xia Ren was speechless: "No matter what, I am a man. If you praise me like this, I will only feel unhappy and not happy at all."

Zhu Youqian laughed, still not believing it.

Xia Ren also knew that his words were not convincing. He looked at the car next to him and asked, "What is on this pickup truck?"

"Haha, I was just waiting for you to ask." Zhu Youqian looked like he had been looking forward to it for a long time.

"Your home was demolished? Are you so happy?"

Xia Ren had a vague premonition and looked at the other party warily to prevent him from doing anything wrong.

"Who has the guts to demolish my house? Besides, I don't lack the money."

Seeing his calm look, Xia Ren felt shocked again.

"Show you something nice!"

Zhu Youqian grinned and pointed at the pickup truck with his chin. Immediately, two bodyguards turned over and stepped into the car.

Xia Ren wondered in his heart that there should be very few objects in the world that Zhu Youqian could consider as good things.

Could it be a mortar on top?

The two bodyguards grabbed the two corners of the dustproof cloth and pulled it back. Suddenly, a roughly rectangular object was exposed to the sun and reflected light.

The light was so dazzling that Xia Ren was caught off guard and was stunned for a moment. When he looked over there again and saw clearly what was on the car, his eyes widened in shock.

This thing turned out to be...

Zhu has money for him,

How dare he display this thing in public with such confidence?

He is not afraid...

Is it embarrassing?

"How about it? It's a good thing, right? I spent a lot of time before I took it from the seller."

Zhu Youqian took the opportunity to get close to Xia Ren, with a proud expression on his face as if he had a good eye.

Xia Ren: "Is the seller you are talking about a supermarket or a roadside shop?"

"Hey, I told you from the beginning not to look at me like you are looking at an inferior creature. It hurts your self-esteem."

"No, I just think that adults who are excited about buying this thing are probably not very smart. I happen to know a neurologist who can introduce you to it."

"What is this thing? It's so fun!"

In order to prove that what he said was true, Zhu Youqian jumped on the carriage and rode on the thing.

Then he took out a coin that had been prepared and stuffed it in front of him. Suddenly, the things under him began to shake:

"What's the name of my father's father? My father's father's name is grandpa. What's my father's mother's name..."

The sound is also very loud.

Xia Ren raised his head expressionlessly and looked at Zhu Youqian riding on the beautiful sheep-shaped swing machine in the sun, having a great time.

Passers-by heard the sudden movement and stopped to watch.

Xia Ren turned around and left.

"Hey, Shiqing, don't leave. Come up and try it. I'm sure you'll like it."

Xia Ren paused and left even faster.

So shameful.

"Hey! Wait for me."

Zhu Youqian stopped playing, got off the shaking machine, and caught up with Xia Ren.

"Sir, please step aside."

"Don't you recognize me?"

Zhu Youqian kept laughing. He didn't know if he was serious about the shaking machine or if he just wanted to tease Xia Ren.

"Sir, you are joking. I am just passing by. I have never seen you before."

Xia Ren continued to be indifferent.

Zhu Youqian said with regret: "That's a pity. The matter that a certain girl asked me to do in the car just now has come to an end. Since you don't know me..."

Xia Ren stopped and immediately changed his words: "Your name is Zhu Youqian."

"Hehe." Zhu Youqian looked triumphant.

Xia Ren was surprised at his efficiency and asked, "Did the investigation reveal anything?"

When talking about business, Zhu Youqian suppressed his smile and said, "They are all dead. After the man committed suicide, his wife also committed suicide. As for the reason, the police station also felt something strange. Just killing a thief caused the couple to be separated." The two of them were buried together, which is abnormal no matter how you look at it, but since both people are dead, there are no clues at all.”

Xia Ren thought of the words 'for the family' that the man shouted loudly before he died, and asked, "Does the couple have any other family members?"

"Only one son."

There was some uncertainty in Zhu Youqian's eyes: "But his son was married, had a legitimate job, and was currently out of town. He hadn't been back to his hometown for a while. He didn't rush home until the police station notified him. He knew that something like this had happened. It should have nothing to do with him."

Again, the same goes for the tragic dolls, where the clues always get cut off at key points.

Xia Ren felt it was not that simple and asked, "So, his son is at home now?"

Zhu Youqian nodded: "I just came back this morning. I took notes at the police station and found nothing unusual."

He thought of something and then said: "Why are you so concerned about this matter?"

Also, why would you get involved in this kind of thing?

This should not be the daily routine that an online writer should have.

"Of course it's for inspiration." Xia Ren replied matter-of-factly.

This answer, in some respects, is not a lie.

Xia Ren came out today wearing the mask of the Faceless Man. He only had two things to do. One was to return the car, and the other was to hope that Zhu Youqian could help him investigate the hidden story behind the man who committed suicide by taking poison.

Now that both things were completed, he no longer had the idea of ​​staying with the other person, and would find a reason to leave.

Zhu Youqian = friend? ×

Zhu Youqian=tool man√

"You don't want the shaking machine? I bought it specially for you."

Zhu Youqian felt very sorry.

Why wouldn't the other party like something so fun?

"You can keep it for yourself, I'll leave first."

Xia Ren refused.

They happened to be standing in front of the bus stop sign. Seeing the vehicle approaching, Xia Ren walked up without hesitation, leaving Zhu Youqian shaking his head.

"grown ups."

The secretary came over: "Shaking machine..."

Zhu Youqian glared: "Of course I'll take it back and continue playing."

…

…

This was the first time Xia Ren took a bus since he was exposed to an infected person.

It was mid-morning, and the car wasn't crowded. He had a big black crowbar stuck to his back, so he didn't have to worry about blind idiots coming to seek death.

In early August, the temperature began to cool down, and the power of the sun was fading. The air conditioner had been turned off, and instead, the windows on both sides of the car were open.

Xia Ren held the pull ring with his hand and watched a four or five-year-old child next to him jumping on the seat with his shoes on. The parents beside him were watching with no intention of taking care of it.

"Mom, I want fried chicken!"

The child opened the window and looked out at the fried chicken restaurant.

This action was a bit dangerous, Xia Ren frowned.

"Be good, honey. I'll buy it for you when we get off the bus, okay?"

soothed the young mother sitting in the backseat of her child.

"No, no! I want to eat it now!"

The child started to cry and jumped higher and higher on the seat in a rage.

The bus was not moving slowly, and his mother was helpless.

Just then, the phone rang, and the young mother lowered her head and took out her cell phone.

Half of the child's head was already sticking out of the window, and Xia Ren felt it was necessary to pull him back.

He was about to take action, but someone beat him to it.

While the vehicle was moving rapidly, a pale arm stretched out from Xia Ren's side, pressed the child's head, and pushed it out... hard!

When his mother raised her head, she saw her child flying out.

"boom!"

Then there was a screeching sound of brakes.

The child hit the front windshield of a white car behind, directly breaking the glass.

"ah--"

The young mother screamed subconsciously, and then the bus driver reacted and started to apply the brakes.

All this happened in a flash of lightning.

Xia Ren's heart was beating fast. He turned his head and looked inside the car. Except for the child's mother, everyone else looked surprised and didn't know what happened.

I'm afraid he was the only one who witnessed the truth.

"who is it?"

"Who extended the hand!"
