Midnight Anchorwoman - C37
At that time, his stomach was already rumbling. Luckily, this was a restaurant, and it should have been recently renovated. The tiles and the signboard on the door were all new. Compared to other shops, the contrast was especially large. When we went over, there were still some unused materials piled up near the door of the restaurant.
We got out of the car and went inside. The door was open and there were colorful curtains, and the curtains were covered with long beads, and when we put our hands on them, they would clink and clink.
“Is it still not open?” Gao Ming took a look inside and said.
“Crow’s beak.” I opened the curtain and entered. There really was no one inside. Could it be that it was as Gao Ming had said? This store hadn’t even officially opened yet, so we could only starve.
Inside were tables and chairs, arranged neatly and neatly.
“Is anyone there?”
I shouted towards the inside, Gao Ming and Liu Yihong followed in, probably realizing that this was a restaurant with no people, we did not choose to sit down, but stood at the entrance and looked towards the door with a look of anticipation.
“He’s coming.”
When he heard the voice, his heart finally dropped. The curtain was lifted, and a person walked out. When that person saw the three of us, he was stunned for a moment.
“You all want to eat?”
“Of course, boss. Is there anything good to eat?”
“Yes, please wait a moment.”
The man walked quickly to the back of the counter and took out a menu. It was also a very simple menu. When he walked over, he would occasionally look at the three of us.
“You guys watch first.”
“Alright.”
The food here was worth the price, and it looked pretty good. At this moment, there was a crash, and the curtain outside moved a little. I looked up at the door, and a hand reached through the curtain.
“Dead, dead.”
Along with the crashing sounds, a person rushed in. He had very long hair, and it was especially messy. He was holding paper money for the dead, and as soon as he came in, he started scattering it on the floor. He kept yelling.
“Madman Cheng, if you dare cause trouble again, do you believe that I won’t break your legs?”
I saw the person in the restaurant take the mop that was used to sweep the floor from beside the door and shake it. The person turned around and ran out, constantly shouting, “Dead people, all dead.”
At that time, his mood had completely disappeared. The person smiled and said, “This person is crazy, he comes here a few times a day to cause trouble. I hope he doesn’t scare you.”
“Just these few. Hurry up, we still have things to do in a while.”
“Alright, I’ll get the kitchen to prepare it for you immediately. Oh yeah, you’re outsiders, right?”
“City Criminal Police squad, come here to handle some matters.” Gao Ming showed his ID and the man immediately smiled, “So it’s Comrade Public Security. Please wait a moment.”
After that person went to the back, he didn’t come back. Just like that, we sat there and waited for him for almost half an hour. Not to mention food, not even a single person was alive.
“What are you doing? Mighty, come with me to the back and take a look.”
“Fine.”
Liu Yihong stayed behind. The moment Gao Ming and I stood up, the curtain moved, and two people walked out at once. In their hands were a long, pitch-black plate with many dishes placed on it.
“Boss, we didn’t order that much!”
The dishes were almost a whole table, even though the price wasn’t that high. After all, we weren’t rich.
“I know, these are all mine. Hurry up and eat. Leave after eating.” That person’s expression was very serious. In these days, how could he chase people out of his house? Furthermore, he had to pay for it himself.
“Can you tell us what happened in the town?”
“Don’t ask.” That person sighed. The more he was like that, the more curious we were. I signaled to Gao Ming with my eyes. Gao Shen was currently gnawing on a bone with his head lowered. The food here did taste good.
“Cough, cough.” Gao Dazhi coughed twice. “Your matter here has attracted the attention of the relevant departments in the city. This is the president of the Psionic Union, and this is reporter Xia.”
If I hadn’t known him from the start, I really would have thought he was a big liar, with a police ID card that he bought from the Internet for a few hundred dollars.
“Is that true?”
“Right, you saw it too. Black, white, plain, dark, we can control them all. So, you don’t have to be afraid. The reason we came this time is to help you guys.”
“Great, I’ll definitely treat you to this meal. I’ll bring some more wine.”
“Forget it, forget it.”
Liu Yihong is a Taoist, there must be a taboo in this. He waved his hand and the person pulled a chair beside us and sat down.
As you can see, although our business is a bit poor, our past is not bad, because we have inherited some special features from our ancestors. It is a pity, after the incident, no one dared to come outside, and the people in the town are basically hiding themselves, not going out.
After that person finished speaking, he sighed. I picked up a piece of pork chop and stuffed it almost entirely into my mouth. The feeling of the meat being wrapped in juice was really good, perhaps I was really hungry. At this moment, I felt that it was exceptionally delicious.
“Is making a ghost real or fake?”
“I don’t know. Anyway, we’ve never seen him before, but the rumors were very fierce, and there were even more accidents in succession. After that, everyone believed him.”
I frowned for a moment, then took out my phone and showed the photo of Lan Xin to the man.
“Isn’t that Lan Xin!?” When he saw the photo, he actually shouted out Lan Xin’s name.
“You know her?”
That person nodded, “We are in Lansing Town, and almost all the people that live here are surnamed Lan. Many of them are relatives, to be frank, I watched Lan Xin grow up, this girl is especially good, she is filial and is considered one of the few college students that have left our town. Unfortunately, something happened a year ago and a girl just said that it was gone. Some people said that Lan Xin was killed by someone, and were not willing to accept it. Of course, all of these are just rumors, and no one has ever seen him before. ”
“Then can you bring us to Lan Xin’s house to have a look later?”
“Of course it’s okay, but after what happened to Lan Xin, her parents rarely saw her again. How about this, after you guys finish eating, I’ll bring you guys there.”
“Thank you.”
“Don’t mention it. When I see you guys, my store has confidence. If there’s a chance, you must help me advertise.”
“Alright, alright.”
What reporter Xia? Isn’t this obviously giving me trouble? Right now, the most important thing is to eat until I’m full and then go to Lan Xin’s home.
