Postmortem Appointment - C89

I saw that the sky was already dark, and outside was a desolate wilderness, a completely unfamiliar environment. The driver was afraid that I would be worried, so he hurriedly said that he wanted to take the shortcut.

I nodded my head. I thought that I had seen a lot of markets when I was doing business here. However, I had never seen this place in the future.

But I didn’t think too much about it. After all, it was the driver who was driving, and I didn’t care as long as he could get us to something else as soon as possible.

I stayed up until dawn. I hadn’t stayed up for a long time, so I had a headache when I didn’t sleep all night. I ate some food and fell asleep in the back seat.

Seeing me like this, Bai Hua curled her lips and said, “Obviously, I just recovered from my severe injuries, why does it look like you have just recovered from your illness?”

I didn’t want to argue with her, so I just turned around and fell asleep. It was just that my sleep was unstable, and in a trance, I saw that I had arrived at a strange and strange place.

It was like the interior of a house, a dilapidated house, all its windows covered with black cloth, all dark except for the clatter of my footsteps and the old wooden floor.

The more I walked, the more scared I became, so I took out my cell phone and lit it up. When I looked at it carefully, it reminded me of the old place I’d seen in a horror movie, dark, dark, strange, and a little chill.

Furthermore, the corridor seemed to have no end. I hastily stopped and looked around, but didn’t see any way out.

Just when my heart was filled with fear and I wanted to break away from this place, I suddenly heard a sharp laughter by my ear. Following that, a black shadow flashed past my sight.

I jolted awake and looked around fearfully. Only then did I realise that I was still lying in the car, while Bai Hua sat in front of me and looked at me worriedly.

“You must have been dreaming. Tell me about it.”

Bai Hua looked at me with eyes full of worry, even if I did not say anything, she would probably be able to guess what I was dreaming of.

But in order not to worry her, I forced myself to sit up and told her about the dream I had just had.

“Ancient houses, old stairs, endless corridors, dark shadows …” This is not a good omen! ”

Bai Hua muttered for a bit, she did not say anything further, and turned to look out the window. From this moment onwards, I felt worried and uneasy, but there was something I had to do, no matter how dangerous it was, I had to try.

So I shook my head, forcing myself not to think about it, but sometimes the more you don’t want to think about it, the easier it is to think about it.

“Mr. Zhang, I think you are a good person. After hesitating for a long time, I feel that it is necessary to tell you about it.” Old Cheng was over forty years old, and as we got along, I could tell he was an honest and straightforward person. I had a good impression of him.

“If you have anything to say, just say it.” I smiled politely, then lit a cigarette and handed it to Old Cheng.

Old Cheng took the cigarette, took a drag and said: “Actually, we already knew that you weren’t here to look for relatives, you must have some other reason for coming here, we shouldn’t have said these things to you, but Mr. Zhang made such a large sum of money, if we didn’t warn you, we would’ve felt bad, what if … “If there’s no chance, we’ll all be fine.”

Old Cheng finished his cigarette and continued, “We were partners before, driving together as drivers to deliver goods and travel together, so we heard a lot. We heard about the village you guys were going to three years ago, when a driver went to that village three years ago, it was dark and the road was slippery. They didn’t dare to go on in the middle of the night, so they went to that village to find a place to stay. However, since they had pulled that many cars back and the two drivers had gone home, they had all gone mad. They were still in the mental hospital. “This time, I came here because my family was in a hurry to use the money and I was short on money. That’s why I came here bravely.”

I didn’t say anything. I leaned against the back seat and stared out the window into the dark night. My heart began to pound, because I had a bad feeling about this.

“Zhang Yu, we will definitely win this time. You don’t need to think about anything else, you just need to think about whether we can win or not!”

When Bai Hua saw my tensed expression, sshe rolled her eyes and said. After that, he threw a bag of bread at me, and I casually took a bite.

After all, there is still a long way to go. If I don’t eat anything, I might not even have the strength to fight with him.

It was only then that I discovered that this village was located at the very edge of the city. There seemed to be no other villages or towns around that village, and there was no one smoking within a hundred mile radius.

I looked outside with a blank expression. The sky had gradually darkened and there were less and less people around us. Even though our car was on a main road, it was already late and there weren’t many people around. Only the surrounding buildings were lit up by the twinkling lights, which looked like fireflies in the dark night. There was no warmth on the outside, but instead something strange.

At this time, Old Cheng suddenly turned his head and said: “Mr. Zhang, with Miss Bai’s speed, when it’s almost daybreak, we can reach that village.”

I nodded. When I saw Old Cheng say this, a hint of fear flashed in my eyes. I looked at the driver beside me and a line of words immediately flashed across my eyes. “How should I tell them that we don’t want to enter that village?”

Looking at Old Cheng’s words, I didn’t try to force him. After all, they had already heard that those who entered that mountain village had become lunatics. Naturally, they didn’t want to enter.

Thus, I smiled and said, “You can just send us to the village entrance. Once we reach the village entrance, I’ll settle the bill for you.”

After Old Cheng heard what I said, he was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said: “Mr. Zhang, you must be careful. What I said before is true, I heard that the most dangerous place in the village is a three-storey villa at the southwest corner of the village.”
