Chapter 252: Strange Rental Stories
Hearing this, Jiang Cheng retracted his gaze from the window and focused on the driver for the first time, looking through the rearview mirror.
"How do you say it?"
The driver swallowed subconsciously. This area is relatively desolate, but the road is relatively straight and there are few forks, so it is easier to walk, and he doesn't have to worry too much. A car jumped out or something.
Glancing at the rearview mirror, the driver lowered his voice and said, "You are from out of town, so you may not know very well. There has been some unrest in Rongcheng recently."
"In the past few days, several people have gone missing. There are no alive or dead bodies. It's scary to death." The driver said with lingering fear.
Not hearing the reply from the two, he kept to himself and said: "I have a friend's child who works in the bureau." He licked his lips and gestured: "You know what's going on in the bureau?" Well, according to him, his son has been busy for a while and has been unable to return home. Everyone’s vacation there has been cancelled, and some people in other places are hurrying back.”
The rental industry is relatively well-informed due to its unique nature.
Hearing this, Jiang Cheng's eyes changed slightly, and so did Fatty's. Both of them couldn't help but think of the nightmare mission.
And Jiang Cheng also thought of what the police officer who was driving said to the female police officer in the office.
The two just happened to be confirmed at the moment.
"Why did you disappear?" Jiang Cheng showed a more interested attitude. He leaned closer and his tone of voice was different from before.
There was mostly curiosity in his eyes, and even a little bit of fear.
Because there were more doctor scenes, Fatty didn’t do much of them and just sat there quietly as a backdrop.
The driver became even more interested when he heard that someone was echoing him. He whispered mysteriously: "How do we know the details? I heard that the bureau doesn't have a clue."
"But I heard that they all disappeared at night." He paused, as if he thought of a particularly terrifying scene, and his tone became weird. "What's even weirder is that some of them were sleeping at home at night, but they didn't show up the next day. Early in the morning, people disappeared, you said it was scary Isn’t it scary?”
“And there are other people at home!”
“It’s really crazy!” The driver turned the steering wheel and the vehicle entered a lane. It seems like you can get closer if you take the forked road from here.
"Isn't it too exaggerated?" Jiang Cheng said: "This kind of thing will become very exaggerated as it spreads one by one. It may not be a big deal at first, but it will be spread to the end."
Before Jiang Cheng could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the driver, "Little brother," the driver, who was not much older than Jiang Cheng, suddenly lowered his voice, "If the previous things were all hearsay, then this incident But it’s absolutely true.”
He became a little nervous inexplicably, and the driver's voice also lowered, "We drivers formed a group in order to make it easier for us to run around. Several of our friends who usually play better are in it. Counting, there are dozens of people, including There was a big brother in his early 40s who also had an accident. "
"Missing?"
"Yes," the driver nodded, "just three nights ago. "
"He usually works the night shift, but that day he went out to play mahjong with others for a long time, and he couldn't keep an eye on him at night. It was probably around 12 o'clock, so he wanted to find a place. Stop for a while.”
“Actually, I just squint for a while,” the driver explained: “But something happened when I squinted.”
"How do you know he disappeared because of his sleep?" Jiang Cheng thought for a while and asked.
He didn't mean to find fault. He simply felt that there was a loophole in the driver's words. According to what the driver said, the missing driver should have happened when he was alone.
How did he know?
Especially. Still so clear?
"Alas!" The driver sighed, and said with some annoyance: "We just get together to play mahjong during the day. Like him, I both work the night shift. There was a shortage of people that day, so I..."
At this point, the driver seemed to suddenly think of something, his eyes flashed, and he immediately changed his mind and said: "No, no, it's him, he pulled me in."
After realizing that the two passengers in the back seat were both After there was nothing unusual, he calmed down and continued to move downwards. Said: "It was almost 6 pm after we left that day. First we went to have a meal, and then we went out to work together."
"We had the intercom on the way and kept chatting. Just to give each other a heads up, you know, our business is getting better day by day. , They are all dealing with cars. As long as they are running on the road, everyone in the family will not miss it."
"It turned out to be around 12 o'clock," he thought for a while and continued to confirm: "No. Wrong, it’s around 12 o’clock, because I often hear a radio The TV channel started, I remember it very clearly.”
“It happened that he said he was tired at that time, and then I advised him to go home and rest early, but he disagreed and said he was out for a trip and couldn’t connect. If you don’t even make enough money for gas, just close the car.”
"So he told me that he wanted to find a place to squint for a while, a little off the beaten path, at least somewhere that wouldn't be caught by surveillance cameras. After a while, he said he found it, behind a dumpling restaurant."
“Then he happily told me that the location here is good and quiet, and no one cares about it. After hearing what he said, I asked him to send me the location. I might need it in the future. "
"He also made an appointment with me and said he would drop me off in an hour. Call him, at that time, customers are just coming out at the entrance of the bar and barbecue restaurant, so business is relatively good," he said.
“My business was relatively good during that time, so when I thought of him, almost two hours had passed. I hurriedly called him, and the result showed that the call went through, but no one answered.”
< br>"I thought he was sleeping too deeply, so I didn't take it seriously. After a while, I happened to pick up a guest and got off the car near where he left. I stopped by to look for him."
At this point, the driver suddenly stopped talking.
The fat man was getting excited when he heard it, but the doctor didn't express his opinion, and he didn't dare to urge him.
“Huh——” The driver took a long breath and slowly slowed down the car, as if to create a buffer for himself.
“But when I arrived, the car was empty.” He paused, “He was not in the car.”
“At first I thought it was him. It was easier to get out of the car, so I stood next to his car and called him again. As a result, his cell phone rang in the car, right on his driver's seat, and the screen was on! "His phone rang! His breathing began to become rapid. Thinking about it, Fatty also felt a little weird.
"What happens next?" Jiang Cheng asked.
"I subconsciously reached out to pull his car door and found that his car door was locked." After a moment, his voice suddenly became louder, "But this is not normal. There is no cover or barrier nearby. It’s so desolate. How could he leave his phone and walk away alone?” cute.
