Requiem Chapter 59: The Fifth Murder Case
After returning to his residence, Yin Hun collapsed onto the sofa, his whole body limp.
He hadn't eaten anything from morning till night. Now it was already noon and he had no appetite at all. He was afraid that he would have to give up even soy milk from now on because it would remind him of some bad things.
He found a cushion to put behind his back and lit a cigarette. He felt bad as his colleagues left him one after another.
Tang Yan and Shen Feifei sat next to Yin Hui in silence. In order to break the dull atmosphere, Shen Feifei turned on the TV and changed channels aimlessly while looking at Yin Hui, not knowing what to say.
Perhaps to calm everyone down, Old Zhao invited Yin Hun to drink tonight for the first time, and even asked Sun Faxue to accompany him. It seemed that he really wanted to drink to relieve his sorrow and not go home until he was drunk. Yin Hun was not a frequent drinker, so he was drunk and fell on the table, leaving Old Zhao and Sun Faxue to toast each other. The table was already a mess of cups and plates.
After drinking for a while, Old Zhao felt more and more aggrieved, so he grabbed the wine glass on the table and took a big gulp, but he choked and started coughing continuously.
"Look at you!" Sun Faxue poured a cup of hot water for Old Zhao and said, "Old Zhao! I'm not saying anything bad about you, but these things didn't happen to us, so why are you so angry? Besides, none of us can afford to offend that person, so let's just keep this to ourselves and turn a blind eye to it!"
Old Zhao looked at Sun Faxue in surprise, wondering why he would say such a thing, but he looked at Yin Hui beside him and said nothing. So the two of them stopped talking and drank in silence, and soon the bottle of Erguotou was empty.
The night was so dark that the entire Xiangjiang City seemed to be covered in a black cape. At around ten o'clock, Yin Hui, Zhao Deshui and Sun Faxue finally staggered out of the Tujia cuisine restaurant, supporting each other. The nerves that had been tense for several days finally relaxed. The three of them suddenly became indulgent and drank until they were drunk and barely able to stand up before leaving the restaurant.
Yin Hun got into Lao Zhao's second-hand car drunkenly and said to Sun Faxue, "Old Sun, you...you can just take my car and go...home! You are so happy today, I...I will drive myself and take you and the master home."
Although Sun Faxue was very drunk, his brain was still clear. He didn't dare to take a car driven by a drunk man who couldn't even tell east from west and south from north. So he said tactfully: "You go first! I'll stop a car to go back."
"Why, Mr. Sun, are you still afraid... afraid that my skills are not up to par? Don't worry, I will definitely... definitely send you home safely."
"You don't have to say it. I will never ride in your car. I don't want to become like Old Qian." At this point, Sun Faxue suddenly felt his muscles stiffen, as if Qian Fang was standing quietly behind him at this moment.
"Okay! Then I'll leave first. You just take care...be careful." After saying that, Yin Hun drove away in Old Zhao's car.
After hearing Yin Hun's words, Sun Faxue felt uncomfortable.
Nothing will happen to you, so why should you worry about it?
Although he knew that Yin Hun meant well, Sun Faxue still felt an instinctive resistance rising in his heart, as if he would get into trouble because of his words.
Thinking of this, Sun Faxue suddenly felt annoyed. He saw people coming and going, talking and laughing, as if they were cursing him.
"You will die, you will die, he is right behind you." Sun Faxue seemed to hear everyone grinning at him. These people were all standing in front of him, but their eyes were looking behind him, as if a terrifying ghost was following him.
"No...no." Sun Faxue suddenly ran forward.
There was a sound of hurried footsteps behind him, as if someone was desperately chasing him. Sun Faxue didn't dare to look back, but just ran forward desperately until he collapsed on the side of the road exhausted.
Although the night is dark tonight, it is not very deep. The sky seems to be covered with a thick layer of black gauze. Through the black gauze, you can see a few twinkling stars above your head, like giant eyes in the darkness spying on everything in the light.
Sun Faxue sat on the ground gasping for breath. A gust of north wind with a strong fishy smell blew over, and Sun Faxue suddenly felt a pain in his stomach, as if a hand was grabbing it hard. He couldn't help but vomited with a "wow!", and the road beneath him was in a mess.
After vomiting for a long time, Sun Faxue finally felt better. A large pool of yellow vomit on the ground gave off a strong sour smell. Pedestrians on the road covered their noses and avoided him. A few people cursed in a low voice. Sun Faxue heard it, raised his head and looked at them with a gloomy face, which scared them so much that they hurriedly walked away.
Since he had vomited out everything in his stomach, Sun Faxue was much more sober, but he still had a headache.
He stood up and wanted to hail a taxi to go home and rest quietly. But for some reason, Sun Faxue stood on the roadside for more than half an hour and didn't hail a car, and didn't even see a taxi.
"Where have all these idiot drivers gone? There are usually so many cars jammed in traffic, but today there is not a single taxi. Don't they want to pick up passengers so early? Taxi drivers these days are such bastards!"
Sun Faxue walked slowly along the road cursing, hoping to stop a car at the next intersection. However, he walked for several miles and got nothing.
Just when his feet were aching from waiting, a red taxi suddenly rushed over from the front. Sun Faxue waved his hand and the taxi slowed down and drove towards Sun Faxue. The two bright headlights made him unable to open his eyes. Sun Faxue felt a sharp pain in his eyes and had to cover his eyes with one hand.
The taxi stopped in front of Sun Faxue, opened the door, and Sun Faxue got in at a flash: "Go to Building 22, Shuguang Community." After saying this, Sun Faxue closed his eyes and let the taxi take him at high speed.
After an unknown amount of time, Sun Faxue woke up and opened his eyes to see the taxi still speeding on the road: "Why hasn't it arrived yet?"
He checked the time and it was already midnight. The car had been driving for nearly an hour. This distance was probably enough to go around the city. Thinking of this, Sun Faxue suddenly became furious. This taxi driver was too mean. He took advantage of his sleep and drove him around in circles.
Sun Faxue patted the driver's chair vigorously and said, "Young man, you are teasing me! It's only a ten-minute drive, but you took me around for more than an hour. Even the most evil driver wouldn't be as cruel as you! I think you are crazy about making money!"
"I'm telling you, take me back right now, and you have to pay the extra money yourself! I'm not that kind of fat sheep, otherwise I'll call the police station and make you compensate me for my losses."
Sun Faxue talked a lot, but the driver in front remained silent, as if he didn't hear him at all, and continued to drive as usual.
Seeing that the driver ignored him, Sun Faxue was about to get angry, but suddenly he saw a scene in the rearview mirror that made him shudder. This driver... This driver turned out to be a faceless person. His face was completely flat, with no eyes, nose, mouth, or anything else. His entire face was like a piece of white paper.
At this moment, the driver 's featureless face suddenly turned towards the rearview mirror, as if he discovered that Sun Faxue was staring at him.
Sun Faxue was so frightened that his muscles were tense. Seeing that the driver seemed to have noticed his peeping, Sun Faxue quickly moved his eyes down from the rearview mirror and tilted his head stiffly.
But it was too late. The driver stopped the car on the side of the road, and then turned his head little by little, but his body and neck did not move at all, and he turned his head backwards. The driver's head turned completely around, as if his head grew on his neck backwards. That's right, he really had no face, and there was nothing where the facial features should be, just a piece of pale skin.
"Did you see that I have no face?" A sinister voice sounded in the car, and Sun Faxue was almost frightened to faint. The voice was obviously made by the faceless driver in front of him, but he didn't have a mouth at all, so how could he speak ?
At this time, a "gurgling" sound was heard in the car again. Sun Faxue listened carefully and found that the sound actually came from the driver's stomach.
"Did you notice that I have no face?" At this time, the driver suddenly stood up from his chair.
"No, I didn't see anything, I don't know anything!" Sun Faxue's whole body was limp, without any strength at all. He could only lean tightly against the back of the chair, with the word "fear" written all over his face.
The driver ignored him, started the car again, and slowly turned around.
The strange thing is that although there was no one controlling it, the taxi still drove on the road by itself as if it had eyes.
"Do you think I'm very scary?" The driver's stomach made another sound. "No, I didn't see anything, don't ask anymore!" Sun Faxue felt that it was difficult to breathe, and he guessed that he might be scared to death. At this time, Sun Faxue suddenly felt that the seat under him became wet, and a strong stench began to permeate the carriage. Sun Faxue found that everything around him suddenly turned into pieces of rotten meat. There were many rotten human heads nailed to the walls of the carriage. Those heads were all rotten beyond recognition, and drops of yellow corpse oil kept dripping from the heads. There were also some fat maggots crawling in and out of the rotten eye sockets and mouths of the heads.
At this time, the driver's upper body began to stand up, and then he slowly unbuttoned his clothes. Sun Faxue was even more horrified. The driver's facial features were all on his stomach. The two eyes on his chest were big and red, and there were many thin threads like blood flowing in them. They didn't look like human eyes at all. There were no teeth in his mouth, only a scarlet tongue that kept moving.
After a moment, the mouth opened and closed and began to speak: "You feel scared, don't you? But you will not feel scared soon, because anyone who gets in this taxi must die. Let me come and free you right away!"
After saying that, the scarlet tongue in the driver's mouth suddenly grew longer and hung down to the chair, then slowly swam towards Sun Faxue like a snake.
The tongue swam to Sun Faxue's neck, and suddenly wrapped around Sun Faxue's neck tightly, and then slowly tightened. Sun Faxue's face twisted in pain, and the blue veins on his neck swelled up one by one, like thick lines.
He screamed and struggled desperately. After struggling twice, his head suddenly hit the car door. The horrible scene in front of him disappeared immediately. Sun Faxue realized that everything just now was just his illusion. But this feeling was so real. Sun Faxue touched his chest. His heart was beating as fast as an engine. Every time it beat, he felt like his chest was hit hard.
I didn’t expect to have a dream in the car, and this dream was so real.
Sun Faxue felt his head swollen and painful, and couldn't tell whether what happened just now was true or false. He reached out and touched his neck, and felt something sticky on his neck. Sun Faxue put a little under his nose and smelled it, and immediately felt a foul odor. Could it be that what happened just now was true?
He was completely confused and didn't know whether he was in a dream or in reality. Sun Faxue touched the chair under him and felt a real touch on his hand, which meant that he was indeed in reality. He must have been so frightened by the series of deaths that he was almost schizophrenic.
