C31 funeral parlour

Mr. Zhao seemed to be very relieved and quickly fell asleep. I sat in the doorway and gradually began to wonder: How did he know that Xia Xin was going to go out tonight? If Xia Xin lies on the bed, can I stick a needle in her head? What if she didn't sleep?

Immediately after, all sorts of guesses about Mr. Zhao surfaced in my mind. I turned my head and saw that the Mr. Zhao was lying on the bed with his shoes on.

I tiptoed over and tugged at his pants. Luckily, there was no "River Styx" embroidered on his socks.

At that moment, I heard a creak and a door opened outside. Oh no! Xia Xin has set off!

I quickly ran to the door and looked outside, only to find that the light in the room across the way had turned on. The ones who lived there were Wang Qi and his boyfriend.

The two men took out some paper money from their bags and began to burn it in the yard.

The boy impatiently threw the stack of paper money into the brazier, while Wang Qi's expression became even more sorrowful. As she burned the paper, she read softly: "9th grade ah, you should take this money well, don't be fooled by others. When you reach the underworld, hand it over to Yama and let him choose a good home for you in your next life. "

The boy stopped for a moment, unable to hold back anymore, he kicked the brazier away, then pointed at Wang Qi and said: "You want to continue like this, don't you?"

Wang Qi said while wiping his tears, "He's also your son."

The boy scolded, "Bullshit, do I have a son? Let me tell you, Wang Qi, if you continue to be like this, I won't be accompanying you anymore. "

Wang Qi's face turned white: What do you mean by that?

The boy sneered. "What do you mean? You can play by yourself, but pretend that you don't know me when you see me in the future. " Then he turned and walked away.

Wang Qi squatted in the courtyard and started to cry. She cried for a while, then picked up the paper money that had been scattered on the ground and continued to burn.

"Sigh …" A faint sigh sounded in my ear.

I whispered, "Mr. Zhao, you haven't slept yet?"

But as soon as he finished speaking, he felt that something was wrong. Mr. Zhao's snores did not stop.

I jerked my head back, but there was no one behind me. In this room, there are only Mr. Zhao and I. But something was wrong with me, like someone else was looking at me.

I closed my eyes and turned slowly, feeling the look. Then I noticed it, and my eyes came from the corner.

I opened my eyes and looked in that direction, and then I was startled. There was a paper man there. It was my double.

I cursed in my heart, "Why is this thing still here?"

I went over and tried to throw the paper man away. However, Mr. Zhao, who was snoring loudly, suddenly opened his eyes and said, "Don't move."

Startled, I said, "You're not asleep?"

Mr. Zhao said, "I just happened to wake up."

I pointed at the paper man and said, "Can I just throw this away? How unlucky it is to have it in the room. "

Mr. Zhao laughed and said: "I can't throw it away. This is your substitute, I might need it in the future. Furthermore, there is a little brat in this paper man. Even if I have to throw it away, I must properly send it away. Otherwise, there will be trouble in the future. "

My head is big, and I still dare to use it? How is this a double? The baby inside calls herself Junior-day 9, and always wants to take away my body. I really don't understand, why would she bring this bomb by her side?

I still wanted to continue persuading Mr. Zhao, but he suddenly pointed at the door and said, "Look at the door, Xia Xin is about to leave."

I had to sit back down at the door. Mr. Zhao's snores came out very quickly.

Wang Qi's paper money was almost burnt off, and the Inside the house suddenly made a rustling sound. Instinctively, I looked at the paper man. It was still obediently sitting in the corner, as if it hadn't moved at all.

I heaved a sigh of relief. Just as I was about to turn around, I was alarmed to find that the shadow on the wall had moved.

My head buzzed, and I knew at once that this was the kid in the paper man. I jumped up from my chair and stepped aside.

I felt a chill as the kid passed the door. Then, the door shook, revealing a crack. A thin gust of wind squeezed through the crack in the door.

I carefully looked at the wall. There was only a thin shadow left. It looked like a black rope.

I saw a whirlwind rise up in the courtyard, bringing the ashes of the paper flying in the air together.

Wang Qi suddenly froze there, and probingly shouted: "Ninth day, is that you?"

Her voice was so shaky, especially with the same name she used, that it gave me goosebumps.

The whirlwind soon stopped, and the door suddenly swayed, and then I saw a shadow squeeze through the crack in the door.

It was still the same kid. His shadow appeared on the wall again and slowly crawled over. This time, he had the outline of paper money on his back.

Wang Qi sat in the courtyard blankly, still calling out one voice after another: "9th day, 9th day …"

At this moment, Xia Xin's door creaked open. Xia Xin stood in the courtyard with his hands on his waist, and said to Wang Qi disdainfully: "Left behind by someone?"

Wang Qi nodded blankly.

Xia Xin harrumphed, "Hu Chujiu is so shameless, he's pretty capable. He stayed here for an entire night, and he already hooked up with you? To start and end with chaos, what the heck is this? "

I felt a little helpless. The key thing was that Wang Qi was still in a trance and did not take what Xia Xin had said to heart. He continued to shout, "9th day, 9th day. Why don't you come out and see me? "

I was looking through the hole in the wall, speechless. Xia Xin suddenly strode towards our room. Startled, I squatted down.

At this time, Xia Xin knocked on the door, and called out from the outside: "Hu Chujiu, you must take some responsibility."

I waited for a while, but did not hear anything. I looked out from the small hole, and saw that only Wang Qi was left in the courtyard.

I opened the door tentatively and slowly walked to Wang Qi's side. "Where is he?"

Wang Qi looked at me in a daze: "Who?"

I said, "The woman who just came out."

Wang Qi pointed to the door and said: "Let's go."

I panicked and immediately chased after them.

Wang Qi asked me: "Big Brother, did you see my child again?"

"I see," I said. "He's fine now, and he doesn't need food or clothes. You just have to live your own life. "

Wang Qi said something I didn't hear, but I was already in the alley.

There was no Xia Xin in the alley, and I ran out into the street again, and neither did the street.

I was a little stunned. "I lost him?"

At this moment, someone patted my shoulder from behind. I shivered.

I thought of one possibility: Xia Xin was a very shrewd person. She didn't walk out of the alley at all, but hid in the shadows. When I hurried out to follow her and found out I'd lost her. She came out to expose my ugly face.

I forced myself to turn around and saw that it wasn't Xia Xin who was standing behind me, but an uncle smoking a cigarette.

The old man was unshaven, and his style was a bit boorish. "Brother, can we take a taxi?"

I shook my head. "No taxi."

Uncle said, "Are you looking for someone? Just now, a beautiful lady had emerged from the alley, scolding him as she walked. Oh right, you can't be that Hu Chujiu, right? "

I was overjoyed. "That's right, that's right. I am Hu Chujiu."

The old man scratched his head. "You're so happy to be scolded?"

A minute later, I got into Uncle's car. He stepped on the gas and headed in the direction Xia Xin had left.

Xia Xin had taken a taxi and left, and now she was already a few miles away. But that didn't matter. They all knew each other. The old man made a phone call and asked a few questions before confirming the route. Ten minutes later, he had caught up with the taxi in front.

I told him to follow me quietly, not to alert me. He didn't ask too much, he was a professional.

Half an hour later I was still in the car.

I am a little puzzled, this small city is not big, half an hour has passed, why is it still in the city? I watched for fifteen minutes and realized that if Uncle put himself in four positions, he would be able to circle the town once in fifteen minutes. Now he had completed his third lap and was starting his fourth.

I was a little angry and said to the uncle, "How are you going to take a detour?"

The old man was also helpless. "The person in front is taking a detour. What can I do?"

I thought: How could the drivers here be so wicked? [What's wrong with a girl like Xia Xin?] If she can't get to her destination, how am I supposed to do anything?

I said to the uncle, "Can you tell that friend of yours to stop beating around the bush? I'll give him the money he earns less."

The uncle made a phone call and said, "This was requested by the girl. There was nothing he could do about it."

Just when I was wondering what Xia Xin was thinking about, Mr. Zhao sent me a message asking if everything was going well.

I said it wasn't going well. Xia Xin took a taxi and drove around the city.

Mr. Zhao said that was normal. She was a living corpse, waiting for the moon to set and for Yin and Yang to meet.

When I heard this, I was a little uneasy.

At that moment, Uncle said to me, "It's about to stop."

I quickly prepared the money.

Xia Xin was already out of the car. With a flash, she arrived at a door. I pushed open the door to follow. Suddenly, the uncle grabbed me and said, "Young man, are you alright?"

I said, "What's the matter?"

The old man waved his hand. "Be careful."

Then he drove away.

I wondered what had happened to him. When I reached the door, I felt a sudden gust of cold air on my body, making me shiver.

I wrapped up my clothes and thought, "Why is this place so cold?"

I glanced at the sign hanging on the side and saw a line of words: Cypress City Funeral Home.

My heart skipped a beat and I couldn't help taking a step back. At this moment, I remembered what the Mr. Zhao had told me: When Xia Xin laid on the bed, I would prick her head with a needle.

Xia Xin, you want to lie on the funeral parlor bed?
