Chapter 3: Fog (please collect, recommend)



Xia Qi couldn't believe his eyes, because there were so many corpses in there!

It looked like they had just died, because blood was still flowing out of the gaps in the compartment.

His heart began to beat violently, and his breathing became more and more difficult. Xia Qi felt that he was about to suffocate.

"No, we can't go on like this. I have to calm down. I absolutely can't get into trouble!"

Xia Qi rubbed his cheek vigorously, trying to calm himself down.

First, he needs to clarify his environment and his next goals. Either try to figure out what's going on, or find a way to escape from the bookstore and call the police.

There is no doubt that if he had a choice, he would definitely choose the latter.

"There is probably a murderer in this bookstore building, and he has just left the women's bathroom on the third floor. No, no, since "he" has the ability to kill so many people, and I made such an obvious noise before , "he" shouldn't be indifferent.

Could it be that my previous guess was wrong, that the murderer was not in the women's room before? "

Xia Qi thought that this was probably the case. Otherwise, if he had made noise and shouted again just now, how could he have let him go if the murderer was really here.

"Maybe the murderer is no longer here..."

Recalling the scene when he was searching for Zhang Xiaoshun downstairs, Xia Qi couldn't help but feel scared. However, it can be roughly seen from this incident that the murderer may have really left.

"It's better to run away quickly, in case "he" is still here..."

With this thought in his heart, Xia Qi planned to go downstairs and escape. However, as soon as he rushed out of the toilet, he saw a figure suddenly running out from the side!

"who--!"

Xia Qi's scalp was numb and he screamed. Although his body was in a defensive posture, it was shaking uncontrollably.

The flashlight was still flickering on and off, but with the help of the brief light, Xia Qi could still see the figure's face clearly!

That was the Zhang Xiaoshun he had been looking for.

"**Almost scared me to death!"

Although Xia Qi was unhappy with Zhang Xiaoshun before, he was still very happy to see that Zhang Xiaoshun was fine now. After all, there is a lot of confidence in my heart when there is someone by my side.

Zhang Xiaoshun seemed to be very frightened, his face was pale and he was covering his heart:

"I should say this to you!"

"Shh..."

Zhang Xiaoshun still wanted to speak, but Xia Qi made a silent gesture and whispered:

"Don't say anything yet, listen to me. There is probably a murderer lurking in this building, and the women's bathroom next door is full of corpses. Did you bring your mobile phone? We call the police!"

Hearing Xia Qi's words, Zhang Xiaoshun's pupils couldn't help but shrink a little, and he shook his head in panic and said:

"I...I didn't bring my cell phone either."

"Fuck! Then we have to escape first!"

Xia Qi was a little disappointed and cursed, then reminded Zhang Xiaoshun in a low voice:

"You are familiar with this place, take me down."

"Um."

Seeing Zhang Xiaoshun nodding, Xia Qi simply turned off the flashlight. The flickering light of the flashlight made him panic and made him easily discovered.

After turning off the flashlight, endless darkness once again occupied Xia Qi's sight.

He subconsciously grabbed Zhang Xiaoshun's clothes with his hands and followed Zhang Xiaoshun carefully.

However, as he walked, Xia Qi's thoughts began to become active uncontrollably, and he suddenly had a terrible suspicion.

He has not seen the appearance of the murderer. In other words, the murderer can be anyone except himself, so naturally it includes Zhang Xiaoshun!

And Zhang Xiaoshun was indeed suspicious. He had shouted so loudly downstairs before, but he didn't receive a response from Zhang Xiaoshun, but he happened to bump into him outside the toilet on the 3rd floor. And he had neither a mobile phone nor a flashlight in his hand. How could he be so sure that he who came out of the toilet must be a good person?

In other words...good guys and bad guys are not important to him, because in his eyes...they are all dead!

In addition, Zhang Xiaoshun was too quiet and didn't say a word from beginning to end.

Xia Qi's footsteps stopped suddenly, and cold sweat flowed down his face. He no longer knew what to do.

"Why did you stop suddenly?"

Zhang Xiaoshun's voice suddenly came over.

"I...my shoelaces are untied. Just tie them and leave."

Xia Qi replied calmly, trying to make himself less obvious.

"What should I do? Is Zhang Xiaoshun the murderer?"

After a moment of thinking, Xia Qi finally decided to ignore Zhang Xiaoshun and escape downstairs alone. As long as he can escape from the bookstore, he is basically safe. After all, no murderer dares to kill people on the street.

With a decision in his mind, Xia Qi planned to speed up and pass Zhang Xiaoshun who was walking in front. But just when he was about to do so, a figure suddenly appeared in his sight that was originally occupied by darkness!

This person was none other than Zhang Xiaoshun who was waiting for him not far away.

At this time, Zhang Xiaoshun looked indescribably weird. There was no light on his hand to illuminate it, but he looked like he was bathed in moonlight, and his whole body exuded a gloomy aura.

"What are you going to do?"

Zhang Xiaoshun suddenly asked Xia Qi with a cold face.

"I'm not going anywhere... By the way, why are you so bright?"

Xia Qi finished speaking bravely and deliberately found a different topic.

However, Zhang Xiaoshun didn't listen to him at all. He pointed forward with his finger and said:

"It's your turn to go ahead."

"Show... let me go in front instead? Why... why?"

Xia Tian Qi's voice was trembling. He felt that his fear was about to reach its limit. He really couldn't keep pretending.

So after saying these words, Xia Qi suddenly turned around and fled to one side desperately.

Of course, he didn't forget to turn on the flashlight during the process, otherwise he would never be able to find the way downstairs with his eyesight in the dark.

Desperately escaping for a certain distance, when Xia Qi shined his flashlight behind him, he found that Zhang Xiaoshun had disappeared. However, he did not take it lightly. Who knew whether Zhang Xiaoshun would be waiting for him at the door of the bookstore.

After turning a big corner, Xia Xia Qi has already rushed into the stairs. As long as he keeps going down, he can reach 1 Hu.

But just when Xia Qi was about to escape from the stairs, the door to the stairs was suddenly closed!

At the same time, a terrifying figure slowly stood up from the steps.

Seeing that the road ahead was blocked, Xia Qi's feet slipped in panic, and then he screamed and rolled down the steps and passed out.

Xia Qi only felt that he was half-conscious, because he could clearly feel the burning pain coming from his chest. It was like something was burning his chest, making him want to scream in pain, but he couldn't open his mouth.

This feeling goes on... goes on...

Until someone woke him up.

"Hey, wake up..."

Xia Qi opened his eyes with some effort, and then he was startled by the scene in front of him.

I saw no less than ten policemen standing beside him.

Not only that, there were many staff members in white coats, carrying... bodies up and down!

After looking at the policemen for a long time, Xia Qi suddenly remembered what happened last night and exclaimed:

"It's murder! There are corpses everywhere on the third floor, and the murderer wants to kill me..."

"You said you saw the murderer?"

One of the big policemen interrupted Xia Qi and asked.

"I saw it. The murderer is the librarian here. His name is Zhang Xiaoshun."

"Zhang Xiaoshun? Are you sure that's the name?"

"He told me his name is Zhang Xiaoshun."

"Please come over here. Is there anyone named Zhang Xiaoshun in your bookstore?" The policeman called over a somewhat bald middle-aged man from the crowd at the back.

"No." The bald middle-aged man replied firmly.

Xia Qi suddenly became anxious when he saw this:

"There must be. He is wearing the work clothes of your bookstore. I have seen his work permit. His name is Zhang Xiaoshun. He has a crew cut, single eyelids, and doesn't like to talk..."

"I don't have this person here at all!" the bald middle-aged man said again with certainty.

While Xia Qi was arguing with the bald middle-aged man, a policeman suddenly ran over and said:

"Head, the videos on both sides of the street have been checked, and only he came in by himself."

"Yes, I understand." The big policeman nodded with understanding, and then motioned to the two policemen beside him to handcuff Xia Qi:

"We suspect that you are suspected of committing a major crime. Come with us."

After saying that, without giving Xia Qi a chance to refute, he waved his hand and said:

"take away!"

"..."

In the past, I always heard people say that there is only a thin line between heaven and hell. At that time, I didn't pay much attention to it, but now Xia Qi really believes it.

Yesterday, he was still rejoicing that he had found a job with a satisfactory salary, but in the blink of an eye, he became a criminal suspect. He had to admit that it was too dramatic.

Arriving at the local public security criminal police brigade, Xia Qi was temporarily placed in a single room for questioning. He had seen this kind of single room in movies countless times, but this was the first time he actually sat in it. Of course, he didn't want to have a second time.

Sitting on a somewhat cold chair, Xia Qi recalled the whole incident, and he felt that there were really many doubts in it.

He felt that the middle-aged man might be with Zhang Xiaoshun, and the reason why he was offered such a high salary was to find him as a scapegoat. If you think about it this way, it makes sense that the salary and benefits are so good. This is just buying his life!

Just as Xia Qi was thinking about this incident, the big policeman from before suddenly opened the door and walked in, sitting down opposite him.

"Is there anything you want to tell me?"

"I was wrongly accused. I didn't kill anyone. What I told you in the bookstore before was all true. In fact, I also know the murderer's accomplice. I have his phone number. He is a middle-aged man with a crew cut. ,perhaps……"

"is it him?"

After the big policeman finished speaking, he saw a middle-aged man in a suit and ties walking in.

Seeing the middle-aged uncle, Xia Qi suddenly became furious and cursed one after another:

"It was this old bastard who framed me. He and the murderer must be together...!"

"Well, I know everything, you can go now."

After the big policeman finished speaking, Xia Qi felt inexplicably and unlocked his handcuffs.

Xia Qi stared blankly at the big policeman and the middle-aged man standing silently by the door. It took him a long time to calm down and stand up from the chair.

"Can I really leave?"

"Otherwise, do you still want to work here?" the big policeman said with a smile.

"Thanks……"

Although he didn't know what was going on, it was good to be able to leave the police station, so Xia Qi stopped talking nonsense, said thank you and left the house. As for the middle-aged uncle, he also walked out with him.

After coming out of the police station, Xia Qi had a lot of questions that he wanted to ask the middle-aged uncle, but he didn't get the chance to ask:

"There will be two employees on probation who will be on duty in a while. I will take them there myself."

After the middle-aged uncle said this, he wanted to get in the car and leave, but was stopped by Xia Qi:

"Who are you? What the hell kind of company is this company? People died in the bookstore yesterday. Did you know that a lot of people died! I almost died too, but now you still want me to go back!" "

"So what? The result is that you are still alive and well. You have not passed the probation period, so you have to go back to work there."

Having said this, the middle-aged uncle paused and added:

"But this time you are no longer alone, there will be new people coming to try out the job. In addition, I don't recommend that you resign and go home, because you will encounter greater trouble.

Finally, I wish you good luck and hope to be alive to see you again. "

After the middle-aged uncle said this, he made a sharp left turn and drove away in his luxury car.

At the same time, it also left more puzzles for Xia Qi.
