C3 (2/2)
He felt a sharp pain in his nose, and a stream of heat flowed out from his nostrils.
”Ugh, looks like we won't be able to avoid a bloody disaster today …”
Looking at the blood on my hand, I felt depressed.
At this moment, a woman in slovenly clothes slammed the window as if she had gone mad. Behind her, there was a girl who was holding a little girl who had fainted in her arms.
Seeing this, the driver immediately tries to start the car and leave. I immediately open the door for them to get on the car and ask the driver to change the route to head towards the nearest hospital.
”I'm sorry, it's all my fault!”
After arriving at the hospital, the child was directly sent to the emergency department. After a doctor's diagnosis, the child was only in a coma due to heat stroke. After a short rest, the child would be fine. It was only at this moment that the woman who had stopped the car just now regained her composure and walked out to apologize to me.
She apologized in a low voice and handed over a white handkerchief. As for me, I unceremoniously received the handkerchief and wiped off the blood on my face and hands before returning it to her.
”It's alright, it's just a small matter. You're an anxious child as well.”
Seeing that she seemed to be in a better mood, I comforted her a little more before leaving the hospital. I called a taxi to the place where we had agreed to meet up.
”What?” There's actually such a thing? ”
After I told him about what happened at the construction site, I directly slammed the table and stood up. ”Is the construction site that you are currently at called the Sophora Mountain Building Site?”
Seeing his reaction, I couldn't help but feel even more scared, ”Yes, that building's name is that. Did something happen there before?”
Hearing my words, Big Board couldn't help but frown before slowly sitting down, ”Nothing happened, it's just …”
At this point, he seemed to be trying his best to recall something, but he had already lifted my heart up.
”Don't worry, I'm still not sure if the construction site you're at is that grave. My uncle is very well-connected in this area, I'll go back and ask him.”
With that, he ran out of the restaurant's private room, but immediately came back, ”Go back to the construction site and wait for my news. After I find out about that matter, I'll go find you!”
With that, he grabbed the car keys on the table and drove away. As for me, I was stunned on the spot due to his previous words and reaction.
”Graveyard... No wonder I encountered so many things in a single day and almost lost my life … Wait! There were so many people at the construction site, so why did it all happen to me? Or is it only for those who keep watch? ”
When I came back to myself, the bus was already gone. I had no choice but to go back to the construction site to wait for his news.
Before I knew it, a day had passed, until nightfall. I had turned in my shift, but I still hadn't seen the big board come back, and no one had answered his phone.
It was 9 o'clock at night. Just as I was at a loss as to how to spend the night, an old laborer returned to the construction site and walked directly towards the watchtower.
”You're Little Zhou, right? I'm a worker at this construction site. Everyone calls me Old Liu. Someone asked me to pass this to you.” After saying that, the person directly handed a oilskin bag to me.
After receiving the oilskin bag, I curiously opened it. Inside was a small, finely carved wooden cow, also wearing a red rope.
”What is this? ”It seems quite comfortable.”
Seeing the little wooden cow, Old Liu also had a curious look. ”I don't know either. Old Zhang just told you to wear it on your wrist and never leave it.”
