Fengqi Nancheng

There was no one in the house.

No, to be precise, there shouldn't be a single living person.

The room was empty, and all the furniture seemed to have been removed, and the original location of the furniture could only be seen from the dust marks on the floor.

Opposite the door was a small living room, and what Lin Heng saw at this moment was the scene inside the living room.

Just looking at it, Lin Heng felt sick for a while.

On the floor of the living room, human limbs were scattered in a mess at this time, and there was a male head in the center, facing Lin Heng's direction, eyes closed, with a very painful expression.

The blood stained a large area of ​​the ground. Judging from the blood stains, this person should have been dismembered not long ago. It is very likely that the murderer was dismembering the body when Nan Yucheng went upstairs just now.

However, there was no one in the room at this time.Lin Heng looked at the window facing the living room. The window was open. He walked over and took a look. There were two pairs of obvious footprints on the window sill. The size of the two pairs of footprints was different. They should be stepped on by two people. of.

Lin Heng thought to himself: Did Nan Yucheng go after the murderer?

Thinking about it, he glanced under the window sill again.It was dark below, only the dim light at the entrance of the community and the shadows of the trees could be seen, and nothing else could be seen.

Just when he was a little worried, he heard the phone vibrate. Lin Heng took it out and saw that it was a text message from Nan Yucheng. There were only two words on the text message: "Go home."

Lin Heng was certain in his heart, knowing that Nan Yucheng sent this text message not only to reassure himself, but also to worry about his safety, so he immediately replied a message saying he received it.

Before going downstairs, he took another look at the corpse in the room, hesitating a bit about how to deal with it.Could it be that he just left like this?If this is seen by the neighbors around, it will be a big problem.

After thinking about it, he took out his mobile phone and called Cao Wei.Although Cao Wei was unhappy with himself in every possible way, it still couldn't change the situation of the two working together.After Lin Heng told someone to come over to deal with the scene, he quickly went downstairs.

As soon as he got back to the car, Lin Heng's cell phone rang again.Glancing at the incoming call, it turned out to be Gui Qi, Lin Heng's heart tightened, and he quickly picked it up.

There was no sound on the other end of the phone, only very weak breathing, very rapid, and it sounded like the caller was very nervous.

Lin Heng fed several times but did not get a response, but the breathing on the other end of the phone became more and more rapid.

Lin Heng was anxious, and was thinking about hanging up the phone and sending a text message, when Gui Qi suddenly exclaimed.

The voice was very short, as if subconsciously uttered by fright, it stopped immediately as soon as it yelled out, and then the phone was disconnected.

Lin Heng immediately called back, but the other end kept saying that the line was busy.

He dialed twice in a row, but still no one answered, then he remembered the person Nanyu City sent to protect Gui Qi before he went.

That person is also Lin Heng's colleague named Xiao Ting. Although she is a woman, her ability should not be underestimated.

Lin Heng found out Xiao Ting's number and dialed it twice, but no one answered.

Now Lin Heng was completely anxious, he hesitated for a minute, sent a text message to Nan Yucheng to explain his situation, and then drove to the hospital immediately.

It was already one o'clock when we arrived at the hospital, and Lin Heng rushed directly to the floor where Gui Qi was.

As soon as he came out of the stairs, Lin Heng felt something was wrong.

—It was too quiet.

This kind of silence is not the silence of ordinary nights, but a strange and dangerous silence.

The corridor was empty, and there was no one there.The incandescent lamp above his head was very bright, and the pure white light made Lin Heng dizzy.

He looked around, there should be someone on duty at the nurse station at this time, but at this time the nurse station was empty.The whole corridor was like an isolated space, only him.

Lin Heng sensed the danger, he wanted to turn around and leave here, but he couldn't move out of fear for his friend.

He stood there for a while to calm himself down, and then he walked slowly towards Guiqi's room.

Gui Qi's room was deep in the corridor, and Lin Heng felt something was wrong after walking a few steps.

The originally brightly lit corridor, as his footsteps deepened, the light actually dimmed a little bit!

At the beginning, because he was worried about Gui Qi, he didn't realize it. It wasn't until he walked to the door of Gui Qi's ward that Lin Heng suddenly realized that the white light that had originally made him dizzy had turned so dark that he could barely illuminate it!

His heart tightened, and he subconsciously pushed his hand out of the ward.

The light in the ward was very dim, and a person could be vaguely seen lying on the bed.She looks a lot like Gui Qi.

She lay motionless on her side on the bed, with her back facing Lin Heng, only her long black hair was exposed, and her body was completely covered by the quilt, so she couldn't see the specific situation clearly.

Seeing her lying there, Lin Heng unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

He walked over slowly, ready to see if she was asleep.

At this moment, the door behind Lin Heng suddenly closed with a "bang"!

The only remaining light in the room seemed to be sucked out at once, and the whole room was instantly pitch black!

Lin Heng was shocked, and quickly stepped back, trying to get out through the door.However, when he turned around, what he touched was a cold wall, and the door that was originally at this position disappeared just like that!

As soon as his scalp exploded, he immediately turned around and rushed towards Gui Qi.As soon as he rushed to the bedside, he tripped over something on the ground. He couldn't control his strength, and threw himself onto the hospital bed, right on Guiqi's body.

His hand was on Gui Qi's neck, and he was about to stand up when he suddenly realized something was wrong!

——He felt that Gui Qi under his palm was actually cold!

Is it...

Lin Heng didn't dare to think about it. In the dark, he couldn't see Gui Qi's appearance, so he could only boldly stretch out his hand to test Gui Qi's breath.

Because he couldn't see, he groped around with his hand on Gui Qi's face before finding the right position, and cautiously reached over to try it.

— not breathing.

Lin Heng checked her pulse again, but there was no beating.

In an instant, great fear enveloped Lin Heng's whole body.He was in the darkness and couldn't see anything clearly, but there seemed to be white lights flashing in his mind one after another, but in the blink of an eye, his clothes were already drenched in cold sweat.

However, after experiencing several similar incidents, Lin Heng was more or less tempered with courage and gained some experience.

He took a few deep breaths, tried to calm his mind, and stretched out his hand to test Gui Qi again.

He needs to check it out.

This time, he was very careful.First, he tentatively groped to the corner of Gui Qi's forehead, and probed down inch by inch from the forehead to the position of his breath. He stayed for a long time, felt it carefully, and made sure that there was no airflow fluctuation, and then he put down his hand dejectedly.

Gui Qi is indeed dead.

In the darkness, he couldn't even see her last side, and he actually confirmed her death just like that.

Lin Heng didn't know why, but he didn't feel so scared for a while.He stood there dumbfounded, feeling nothing but endless exhaustion.I don't know where this kind of exhaustion came from, but they seemed to have always existed in his body. In the depths of his soul, they all rushed up all at once, almost drowning him.

He felt as if he hadn't had a good night's sleep for a long, long time.

Thinking like this, he actually slowly closed his eyes.

It was as if an irresistible force was tugging on his eyelids, closing them bit by bit.

He tried his best to maintain his sanity, but he couldn't stop this torrent of drowsiness and exhaustion.Before closing his eyes completely, he felt a long vertical white light appear in front of him.

The light slowly extended to the left and right, gradually covering the positive area in front of him.

Then, he saw a person slowly walking out from the light.

He has seen this person.To be precise, I just saw it not long ago.

Lin Heng watched him walking towards him, with an inscrutable smile on the corner of his lips.

Lin Heng desperately wanted to widen his eyes, but it was irreparable.His eyelids were completely closed, and he lost consciousness in an instant.

Lin Heng felt like he had a very long dream.

In this dream, he is no longer the well-behaved urban youth who grew up smoothly and carefree all the way, he has become a homeless child without father and mother.

He saw himself dressed in rags, standing on the bustling streets of the ancient city, the aroma of food made him swallow after three days of hunger.He squatted by the corner, looking at the stall selling steamed buns, his eyes shone with longing.

He didn't know how long he had been squatting here, but the pedestrians and carriages never gave him a single look.And he has long been used to this kind of life, he is used to disappearing in the crowd, like a burst of air, no one is aware of his existence, this is actually not a bad thing for a child like him, at least Reduced his chances of being in danger.

He squatted on the ground and drew circles, thinking about how he could go there to ask for a steamed bun—he had to eat something, and if he didn't eat, he would probably starve to death.

He thought for a while, and saw the cute little boy with fair skin twisting his mother to buy candied haws on the side of the road, and then looked down at himself. Try to look good.He was going to make a good show for the stall owner, begging him, maybe... maybe the stall owner would reward him with a steamed bun if his heart softened for a moment, so that he could live for two more days.

Of course, if it really doesn't work... He looked at the jade pendant around his neck, took it off and held it in his palm.It was the only thing left to him by his parents when they died, and he thought he would never take it off himself, but now that he was starving, he felt like he couldn't care less.

If the stall owner really doesn't want to give himself a steamed bun, then... just exchange this with him.

Thinking of this, he held the jade pendant in his palm and walked over cautiously.

As soon as he walked to the side of the stall, the stall owner turned around suddenly, as if he noticed someone approaching from behind.

He was startled by the stall owner's action, and subconsciously took a step back.

However, the stall owner didn't let him go, and when he saw such a dirty child behind him, he immediately raised his brows and cursed loudly: "Oh, you little bastard! What are you doing sneaking here? ! Want to steal my buns?!"

Hearing the stall owner's scolding, he took another two steps back, a little panicked, not knowing how to explain himself, so he could only shake his head desperately, twisting his hands holding the jade pendant behind his back.

The stall owner frowned when he saw his hands behind his back, and said suspiciously: "You...what are you doing with your hands behind your back?! You can't have stolen my things, have you?" The more the stall owner thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case He immediately shouted loudly: "You stretch out your hand! Let me see! Goofy little bastard, if you dare to steal something, I won't kill you!"

He shook his head desperately, and stepped back desperately.He felt the danger. The stall owner in front of him was totally different from what he had imagined. Maybe not only would he not be able to get food today, but he might be beaten to death by this person instead.

He kept backing away, even to the street outside. Just when he didn't know what to do, and was thinking about how to escape, he suddenly heard a sound of swift horse hoofs in his direction. ran over!
