C30 (1/2)
Then my phone rang again, and I was so startled that I almost dropped it on the floor again, my heart pounding like it was going to pop out of my chest. I swallowed and tried to calm down, but my mind was still in a mess.
I looked down and saw that the person on the phone was actually the Police Officer Liu. I was speechless as I held the phone and looked at the number on it, feeling depressed.
”Why aren't you answering the phone? Who's calling?” Bai Hua saw that after half a day, my phone still rang, but I did not pick up.
Under Bai Hua's urging, I finally got through to the phone, but before I could even open my mouth, I heard the cold voice of the Police Officer Liu from inside: ”Mr. Zhang, please make a trip to the police station, we suspect that you have stolen Zhang Qian's corpse in the morgue. If you are not able to reach there within an hour, I will definitely send someone to invite you!”
Hearing his words, I was stunned, but then I remembered the last time I saw Zhang Qian at the morgue, and every time I thought about Zhang Qian's sinister face, my heart shivered.
What am I going to do with his body?
If I don't go, he will definitely assume that I stole the corpse and even forcefully brought me back to the police station. If that's the case, then I might as well go by myself, at least I can preserve my face.
”Alright, I'll be there in half an hour!” I gave him a perfunctory answer, then quickly hung up.
Looking at the time, it was almost ten in the evening. Since there were still police working at this time of the night, I should have praised their professionalism, but it didn't seem like they were using the right place.
I sighed, then said apologetically to Bai Hua: ”I'm sorry, I can't go to your house anymore.”
”I heard it. We're on our way to the police station now. I'll go with you!”
Bai Hua looked forward, her face still had traces of tears that had not been dried, and her eyes were slightly red, looking haggard.
I really couldn't bear to trouble her again. Just as I wanted to reject her offer, I heard Bai Hua angrily say: ”Don't count on me going home and sleeping, have you forgotten what happened at the morgue last time? Zhang Qian almost killed you! ”Who knows what kind of evildoer you will meet this time, you should just stay here in silence. If I let you go alone, I won't be able to rest at ease even if I go home and sleep!”
I was left speechless by her words, so I could only sit in the front seat and continue looking outside, bored out of my mind. However, at this time, an idea suddenly flashed through my mind, so I hurriedly asked: ”After the last time Bai Hua died, how did I return home? How come I don't remember anything?!”
”Ah Xue picked you up and brought you back. Although I know that there's something on your mind, there's always a need for you to have a good chat. After all, our relationship was so good before, and we've been lovers for so long.”
Bai Hua pondered for a moment, then quickly said, and turned to the left while talking, focusing on driving.
After hearing it, I also felt that it made some sense. Maybe the Ah Xue who brought me back was a ghost in the first place, so Bai Hua didn't see through it.
I decided not to dwell on this matter any longer and settled down in the car, staring blankly at the quickly retreating street lights. I dozed off a little wearily as I walked, and suddenly realized that there were fewer and fewer cars on the road. I thought that an evil ghost would jump out from somewhere and grind my teeth as I charged over to pay with my life.
