Fengqi Nancheng
Chapter 88
Lin Heng felt that he seemed to have walked a long, long way.
During this journey, he saw scenes that many people would never have seen in their lifetime.Those scenes aren't pretty, and most of the time, they're horrific and scary.At first, Lin Heng would be at a loss for what to do with fright, but as time passed, he even got used to it.
When he saw through the truth hidden behind all the bad things in this world, he gradually realized that those terrifying scenes had become less terrifying in his heart.
——Every soul who dies unjustly has an obscure and difficult past behind it.No one wishes to turn into a ghost after death, and the reason for this is because they cannot help themselves.
Lin Heng sighed for the cruelty and bloodiness of the ghost's revenge method, but at the same time, he couldn't help showing a small amount of emotion to sympathize with those who died unjustly—those who could not rest in peace after death, they Their souls have been seared by the flames of hatred for years, and their days will never be peaceful until their vengeance is accomplished.
And Lin Heng never thought that one day, he would become the target of revenge by the evil ghost.
When the nanny approached Lin Heng step by step with her heart in her hands, those doubts that had been lingering in Lin Heng's heart were perfectly answered almost instantly.
He finally knew why there were always frequent deaths around him;
He finally knew why every time the victim's heart was dug out, he happened to be in a state of unconsciousness;
He finally knew what the disappearing memory in the hospital meant;
He finally knew the truth that everyone around him had been trying to hide...
It turned out that this was the case.
At that moment, the huge sense of absurdity made Lin Heng even forget his fear. He subconsciously recalled everything that had happened for so long. Everything, at the moment when the truth surfaced, seemed so cruel and bloody.
It turned out that the murderer he had been tracking down was actually himself.
Lin Heng suddenly felt that he wanted to laugh. He wanted to laugh out loud, as if he could completely release the lingering sense of absurdity in his heart.However, he twitched the corners of his mouth and tried his best, but still couldn't smile.
He sat on the spot, watching the woman's figure gradually become thinner as her footsteps approached, and the surrounding light gradually dimmed from yellow until the surroundings were completely plunged into darkness.
He looked up at the sky above his head, and the dark night before had faded, replaced by a vast dark blue sky full of countless stars.
He looked at it, and gradually felt that his eye sockets were very sore, as if he wanted to shed tears.
At this moment, he was alone on the deserted path, and the people who had been with him in the past were busy on their own. The unprecedented loneliness knocked him to the ground like a huge wave.
After knowing the truth, he didn't quickly analyze the reasons for all this, and he wasn't even eager to confirm it.He just sat there blankly for the whole night.
No one knows what he thought, and no one knows what he finally decided.
When the twilight of the morning sun shone on Lin Heng's body the next day, he gradually woke up from his contemplation.
He glanced at the way he came back, stood up, and patted the dust off his body.
Then, he walked forward without looking back.
Lin Heng didn't go back to the house where he lived with Nan Yucheng, he simply had breakfast outside, and walked along the river for a while.He didn't sleep all night, but he was very awake. Seeing that it was almost time, he took out his cell phone and called his father.
Lin Zecheng has been busy with work recently, and Lin Heng has not contacted him for a long time. Even if he needs to find someone, it is very common for him to call four or five times before the secretary answers, so Lin Heng never thought of calling him first. can be connected once.
When the phone was picked up, he was still in a daze, but when he heard his father's voice, he immediately reacted.Lin Heng first asked him what he was up to recently, and then asked about his physical condition, Lin Zecheng agreed on everything.The father and son never had much to talk about, so they had nothing to say afterward. Lin Heng rubbed his nose and was about to hang up the phone, when he heard a violent cough coming from the other end of the phone.
The cough was naturally made by Lin Zecheng. Lin Heng felt his heart tighten when he heard it, and asked quickly, "Dad, what's wrong?"
Lin Zecheng didn't answer, he coughed for a long time before recovering, panting and said: "Throat is uncomfortable, it's okay." When he said this, his voice was hoarse, and he seemed weak, completely different from the calm and steady look when he answered the phone before.
Lin Heng became suspicious and asked, "Where are you now?"
"At home." Lin Zecheng obviously didn't want to talk more: "Okay, let's not talk, hang up." After speaking, he hung up the phone without waiting for Lin Heng to respond.
Lin Heng held the phone and thought for a while, but still felt uneasy, so he turned around and took a taxi to go home.
It happened to be noon when we got home, and the nanny was cooking in the downstairs kitchen. Lin Heng searched around the house but didn't see his father, so he ran to the garden on the top floor.
Although Lin Zecheng is a businessman who deals with money all day long, he looks like a philistine and shrewd, but in fact he has a very elegant personality, even a little aloof.In his spare time, he likes to plant some flowers and plants on the roof garden, and his noble sentiments make Lin Heng feel ashamed.
Sure enough, as soon as he went up, he saw Lin Zecheng sitting on a rocking chair in the garden, staring at a bluegrass not far away in a daze with half-closed eyes, and he didn't turn his head when he heard Lin Heng's footsteps, still immersed in his own thoughts I don't know what I'm thinking.
Seeing that everything was going well with him, Lin Heng felt relieved at first, but just as he was about to approach, he heard another violent cough.He was sitting on the rocking chair, coughing so much that his whole body curled up, his face was as pale as paper, and he was panting constantly, looking very painful.
Lin Heng's heart tightened, so he hurried up to support him, patted his back, and said, "Dad? Do you want some water?"
Lin Zecheng obviously didn't expect him to appear here suddenly, and was a little taken aback when he saw his son whom he hadn't seen for a long time. He coughed twice, then shook his head slowly, and said in a hoarse voice, "No need."
Lin Zecheng has always been stubborn, and Lin Heng knew his temper, so he didn't try to persuade him much.Sitting down next to him, he patted his back again and said, "Why do you cough so badly? Have you been checked? What's wrong?"
"It's just a cold." Lin Zecheng waved his hand, his face full of indifference: "I was too busy a while ago, running around, and the temperature difference changed a lot, so I didn't pay attention. It's just a small matter."
After saying that, he looked back at Lin Heng again, frowned and said, "Why do you think you ran back? Have you finished your work at the police station?"
Lin Heng shook his head frankly: "It's not finished." He continued without changing his face: "I'm skipping work today." Speaking of this, he remembered that from last night to now, he didn't go back all night. It seems that he didn't call him either. Thinking of this, Lin Heng frowned slightly.
Seeing his expression, Lin Zecheng asked, "What's the matter?"
Lin Heng shook his head and said instead: "Dad, since you are not in good health, you should take good care of it at home and don't run around. Business is endless, and your health is important."
"En." Lin Zecheng replied vaguely, noncommittal.He said again: "Have you gone to see your Uncle Gu? He saw me a few days ago, and he was still talking about calling you and Qi Yuan, so we can have a meal."
"I met him yesterday, and he told me to come and see you." After Lin Heng finished speaking, he hesitated for a moment and asked, "Dad, actually, I have one more thing to ask you when I come back this time."
"You said."
"When I was chatting with Uncle Gu yesterday, I talked about some things about my childhood." Lin Heng thought about his words, and said slowly: "He said that I often sleepwalked when I was young, and I went outside several times. It took you a long time. I just found the time, what he said...is it true?" After Lin Heng finished speaking, he carefully observed Lin Zecheng's expression, for fear of missing the slightest change.
Lin Zecheng was taken aback when he heard this question, and then said, "Why did you think of asking this?" He asked casually, and then said, "Yes, after your mother left, you often ran around in the middle of the night, and I found several people Staring at you, there is still no way to catch people. Once you lost it all night, I asked someone to search the two kilometers around here, but I couldn’t find it. Then I went out the next day and found that you were in the building. Fell asleep under the air conditioner damper."
Speaking of this, Lin Zecheng was also a little puzzled: "Your sleepwalking was very serious at the time, and many doctors were invited to see it, but it didn't work. I was worried for a long time, and then I didn't know what happened."
Lin Heng listened quietly, and asked again: "Then do you remember, when did I get better?"
Lin Zecheng thought for a while, and said, "It was probably when I was seven or eight years old? It's been too long, and I can't remember exactly." At this point, he paused, and suddenly remembered something, and said, "Oh, that's right. I I remembered that something happened to Gu's family at that time, you were greatly stimulated, and fell into a coma for two days, and after waking up, you never sleepwalked again."
Hearing this, Lin Heng frowned, knowing that the key was coming, and quickly asked: "Dad, what you said refers to the three nannies of the Gu family—"
Halfway through the speech, Lin Zecheng glanced sideways: "How do you know?"
Lin Heng touched his nose in a concealed manner: "I've been dreaming a lot lately, and there are some things I didn't remember before, but I gradually remembered them."
Lin Zecheng didn't pursue it, but sighed: "I discussed this matter with you, Uncle Gu, and decided to keep it from you. After all, it's not a good thing. And you were too young back then, so things like this will inevitably happen. Bringing shadows to you. I didn't expect you to remember it in the end."
"Actually, I didn't remember all of them..." Lin Heng said, looked at Lin Zecheng cautiously, and said, "At that time, apart from the three nannies, was I really the only one present?"
Lin Zecheng glared at him: "What are you talking about? How could there be only you and the murderer? Although I don't know why he let you go, I am very grateful that you survived—if you were the only one , could it be that you killed those nannies?"
Lin Heng's face turned pale, and he pretended to be calm and said: "How is it possible?" Then he quickly changed the subject: "Then the murderer was caught at that time?"
"No." Lin Zecheng shook his head with a serious face: "At that time, Uncle Gu said that the murderer might have been hired by his enemy, and the original target should have been him and Qi Yuan, but it happened that neither of them were at home at the time, and the murderer sneaked into Gu's house He was accidentally discovered by the nanny when he was in the middle of the night, so he killed him to silence him."
"But, Dad, don't you think it's strange?" Lin Heng tentatively said: "If the murderer's purpose is only to kill people, why did he also dig out the nanny's heart? Isn't it more convenient to kill directly? Why bother?" Unnecessary?"
As soon as Lin Heng's words fell to the ground, Lin Zecheng sat up straight suddenly, and said in surprise, "Who told you that their hearts were dug out?"
During this journey, he saw scenes that many people would never have seen in their lifetime.Those scenes aren't pretty, and most of the time, they're horrific and scary.At first, Lin Heng would be at a loss for what to do with fright, but as time passed, he even got used to it.
