Chapter 128 Black Cat
I couldn't help but touch its fur.
It's soft and cold, but you can feel it to the bone.
I rummaged around, pulled out the ham slices from the breakfast sandwich, and placed them in front of it.
It just smells like the incense candle in my backpack, and I'm a little worried that it might not eat it.
It sniffed cautiously, then started to feast.
Watching it slowly eating, I stood up and prepared to leave.
Unexpectedly, after walking a few steps, the kitten followed me and continued to meow at my feet.
I squatted down again and asked softly: "Want to go with me, little one?"
As if it understood, it meowed in a long voice.
I picked it up and said, "Little thing, don't regret it."
It was very obedient, lying motionless in my arms.
Taking this strange kitten with me, I went to the coffin shop.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw a familiar scene again.
Zhong Ling was drinking tea, as if she had been waiting for me for a long time.
I was stunned for a moment, then stepped forward with a smile: "Sister Zhong, why are you here again? I didn't know you would say anything."
Zhong Ling glanced at me, her eyes lingered on the cat in my hand for a long time, and a smile suddenly appeared at the corner of her mouth: "Of course it's a good thing. I've helped you a lot in the past few times, and I'll give you a chance to return my favor today."
."
This sounds like nothing good.
I carried the cat and walked to sit opposite Zhong Ling. The little black cat did not struggle and continued to lie on my lap.
"Sister Zhong, what are you talking about? I will do my best if I can."
She took out a piece of paper from the bag she carried with her and floated it in front of me: "Don't worry, I won't use you in vain. This is a commission from the Life and Death Sect. I think you are suitable, so I will continue."
I picked up the piece of paper and took a look.
What is written above is an investigation order, requiring a thorough investigation of the "Circle of Death in the City Center". Those who complete the investigation and give true reports can receive the reward given by the client.
Zhong Ling looked at me with a smile: "Look, it suits you very well, right? I don't want much, just a quarter of the reward after the work is completed is enough."
When I saw the name of the investigation order, I was stunned for a moment.
"Sister Zhong, do you know there is a death circle in the city center?"
Zhong Ling took a sip of tea: "How do I know? Most people wouldn't use such a strange description. But Kong Meier said you are suitable for this list, so I took the next step."
Indeed, this word that most people would not use appeared in two places at the same time, which gave me a bold guess.
I turned on the mobile phone I used to contact Zhong Ling and the others and started browsing the history webpage, only to find that I had no record of viewing that website yesterday.
Surprised, Zhong Ling had already stood up and said to me: "Okay, this is what I'm asking you for today. Now I have to go. Remember, the reward is 37%."
Before leaving, she stared at the kitten in my arms for a few times.
After she left, the kitten in my arms suddenly stood up, strolled under the chair, and began to wander around the store.
Xiao Hua also jumped out, obviously very happy to see the kitten, and started to tease it.
I asked: "Where is the great monk?"
Xiaohua teased the cat with her fingers.
The cat could see these things, but couldn't touch them, so it scratched nothing every time but refused to give up, causing a rare smile to appear on Xiaohua's face.
Xiaohua didn't raise her head to look at me: "The great monk went out, I thought he came to find you, but you didn't meet him?"
I frowned: "I didn't even hear any news at all."
She shrugged: "Then I don't know. Anyway, he starts work on time every night, so I have no reason to care about him."
I was silent for a while, and then said: "Then I will give you the phone, and you remember to show these messages to him when the time comes, okay?"
She took the phone and continued playing with the kitten.
I looked at the weather outside. The sun was shining brightly, a rare sunny day in autumn in the north.
It would be a waste not to go out and find out what happened now.
With that in mind, I put my schoolbag on my back and started walking out.
This time the kitten didn't keep up.
I went to the library first.
There are all newspapers from recent years.
If you can't find the news online, you should be able to find something here.
With this in mind, I found the person in charge of managing the newspaper. He didn't look very friendly. He heard that I was looking for a newspaper and looked at me countless times.
After I gave him a few hundred yuan, he finally readily agreed to open the door for me.
The moment I entered the warehouse, I was choked by dust and coughed repeatedly.
But he organized these things clearly, and I soon found my goal this time.
There's already dust on it, a lot of dust.
The dust made the palm prints on it look more abrupt.
I could pick up the newspaper and start reading it carefully.
On that day eight years ago, eight people died.
They are all bad people who deserve their punishment.
One was accidentally injured by his own gun after committing a robbery and murder, and finally ended his life.
One was killed after having an affair outside...
There are too many stories like this, and the reports are very detailed.
This has been the case every year since, and most of the victims deserve what they get.
Just when I had read through all the information and was about to stand up and take a breath, I suddenly noticed someone standing beside me, staring at me quietly.
I quickly looked up.
It's her again.
This time I looked at the door. The old man who was looking after the door for me looked like he didn't know anything and had already found a bench to sit down on.
I looked at the girl and saw her extending her hand.
I subconsciously handed her the newspaper in my hand.
After she took the newspaper, a meaningful smile appeared on her face. After pointing for a moment, she disappeared in front of me.
When the newspaper hit the ground, it kicked up a thin layer of dust.
I picked up the document and took a closer look. There was a place name on it that the girl had wiped away the dust and it stood out.
I took out the map and marked this place.
Someone posted a missing person notice with the address here.
After this location was marked out, I deliberately looked through the newspapers of the following years, and it seems that this missing person notice has continued like this until the last few years.
The last time a missing person notice was issued seems to be the time when that strange post was issued.
It is not within the Bagua formed by the death addresses of several people from other families, but is located very abruptly next to the Bagua array.
It seems to be a formation eye.
This place looks like a small courtyard from the map. I checked and found that after eight years, it has become a park.
But the park is nearby. Even if I go home, I have to pass by it. It just so happens that I can go and have a look.
Stand up.
Suddenly there was another cat meow at the door. I walked to the door and the little black cat stood there again in the morning.
It looked at me quietly, its eyes shining green in the dark night.
How strange that it actually followed?
