hearse drift

Two reports on the same event on the same day have such a large deviation.

Xie Baiyuan turned his notebook backwards, but he couldn't find any reports about this matter.

Including the Qiujing local tabloid, the report on this matter only stayed on September 2009, 9.

It seems that there is no way to know whether the four miners in the mine were rescued or not.

but……

Fang Li raised his head and met Xie Baiyuan's eyes.

"What do you think?" Xie Baiyuan asked.

Fang Li truthfully expressed his thoughts: "I think those four people may not be able to be rescued."

The water seepage accident mentioned by the miners during the chat at noon should be the same as the one reported in the newspaper. Judging from the reaction of the miner Lao Li at the time, there may be something hidden in this incident.

Most likely, what the young miner said was true. Although the water seepage accident killed people, the news was suppressed by the coal boss and the local government.

The survivor of the accident, miner Lao Li, was also one of the insiders.

"That's right," Xie Baiyuan said, "so we have to find a way to find information about those four people back then."

But finding information is not so easy. Their identities in this dungeon are coal diggers recruited to carry out coal mining work. They usually work during the day, and only have a two-hour break at noon and the time after dinner at their disposal.For others, only when the weather is cloudy and rainy will everyone have a chance to act.

After Ge Qiuping's accident, the old miner Li became more and more silent. He would chat with them for a few words before, but now he just said "Start work" when he went down the well and started working without saying a word.

Fang Li was chiseling a piece of soft coal with an iron pick, when he suddenly felt his sleeve being pulled.

He turned his head and saw the short-haired girl who was roommate with Wu Hongkang. He remembered that the girl's name seemed to be Zhao Xue.

"What's wrong?" Fang Li asked warmly, wiping the sweat off his forehead.

Xie Baiyuan also stopped his movements and looked here expressionlessly.

Zhao Xue seemed a little shy, her cheeks were slightly red and she said, "Can you come here for a while? I have something to tell you."

For some reason, Fang Li's first reaction was to turn around to look at Xie Baiyuan, only to find that Xie Baiyuan was also looking at him. The two eyes met. Xie Baiyuan didn't know what information he read from Fang Li's expression, so he took the tools and left come over.

He is tall, standing in front of Zhao Xue and looking down at her with a smile, obviously smiling, but full of oppression: "What's the matter?"

Zhao Xue suddenly became nervous, and her words were in knots: "I...we went to the woods to the east yesterday, and saw something in it."

Fang Li lifted his spirits and asked, "What is it?"

Zhao Xue looked around, and after confirming that no one noticed them, she whispered, "A woman with disheveled hair and a very pale complexion is standing under a big tree."

Fang Li's heart sank. After listening to Zhao Xue's description, he always felt that the woman Zhao Xue saw was the female ghost they were chasing yesterday.

Of course, it could also be the younger sister of the missing pair of siblings.

Thinking of this, Fang Li asked tactfully, "Then did she see you?"

"I don't know," Zhao Xue shook her head slightly, "It was dark at the time, and we were far away, so I couldn't see clearly."

"Yesterday was a thunderstorm. You ran into the woods at night?" Xie Baiyuan asked suddenly.

Zhao Xue's expression was slightly nervous: "It was windy yesterday, and one of my clothes was blown into the woods. We went in to find clothes."

This reason sounds far-fetched, and even Fang Li can tell that this sentence is obviously fabricated.

Xie Baiyuan didn't pursue the question any further, he just let out an oh and said calmly, "Why did you tell us such information?"

Zhao Xue looked at Fang Li and hesitated to speak.

Xie Baiyuan's voice was so cold that it was about to drop ice balls: "Do you like him?"

Fang Li almost choked on his own saliva.

"No." Zhao Xue shook her body, shaking her head faster than a rattle. She seemed to be very afraid of Xie Baiyuan: "I just saw you come out of the south building yesterday afternoon, and I feel the efficiency of your investigation information in the whole team Highest……"

yesterday afternoon.Fang Li instantly remembered the figure standing by the window that he accidentally caught a glimpse of yesterday in the reading room.

Not Zhao Xue, Zhao Xue is at most 1.5 meters tall, that person is at least 1.8 meters tall.

At present, apart from Xie Baiyuan who was with him, the only one who met this height standard——Fang Li looked around, and his eyes fell on Lao Li, a miner bent over and working silently.

Will it be him?

"Anyway, thank you for telling us about this." Fang Li smiled at Zhao Xue, expressing his gratitude.

Human beings are born to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, this is instinct.

Zhao Xue is not conspicuous in the team, but she can make the choice to pass the information to Fang Li and Xie Baiyuan based on their performance.

The coal digging work continued until five o'clock in the afternoon. Just when everyone thought they could end their day's work and go back to have a good rest, an accident happened.

The two men in the team pushing the trolley suddenly became insane. They grabbed the soft coal in the trolley and began to stuff it into their mouths.

The two even fought violently over a piece of soft coal. Others tried to reach out to stop them, but they were pushed to the ground together.

In the end, it was the miner Lao Li who beat the two of them unconscious and stopped the farce.

Fang Li didn't pay attention to the two men who behaved strangely. He only felt that the space underground seemed to be enlarged suddenly, and everything around him was far away from him.

A young man's voice can be vaguely heard saying: "Brother, I'm so hungry."

Listen carefully, the voice is also far away, light and floating, it seems that the owner of the voice is very weak and in pain.

"I'm so hungry, brother, I'm so hungry."

"Eat some soft coal when you are hungry. I was trapped underground for three days, and I survived by eating soft coal."

"Fang Li."

Xie Baiyuan's voice suddenly rang in his ears, like a sharp sword piercing the void.

Fang Li became more awake. He raised his head to look at Xie Baiyuan, followed his gaze to look at his hand, and broke out in a cold sweat.

At some point, he actually held a handful of soft coal in his hand. It seemed that if Xie Baiyuan hadn't grabbed his hand in time to stop his behavior, he would have swallowed the soft coal.

Xie Baiyuan raised his eyebrows: "Is this stuff delicious?"

Fang Li: "..." He hastily threw the soft coal back into the cart, frowned and said, "I don't know what's wrong, but a voice told me just now that eating these will save my life."

Xie Baiyuan narrowed his eyes, Fang Li thought he had discovered something new, but unexpectedly he just said softly: "Let's go, go back."

After Fang Li finished washing in the evening, he and Xie Baiyuan sent the changed clothes to the laundry room on the first floor.

Here is a relatively advanced fully automatic front-loading washing machine, and the clothes are tumbled and pulled in the washing machine, so just leave it there and pick it up in the morning.

The two returned to the room, and Fang Li sat by the bed. He sorted out the known clues so far, and always felt that he was very close to the truth, but there seemed to be something blocking his steps to find the truth.

At least one thing is certain, all indications are pointing that the customs clearance conditions of this instance are related to the water seepage accident in the coal mine five years ago.

Xie Baiyuan was already lying on the bed. He looked at the ceiling above his head and said suddenly: "Tomorrow at noon, let's go to the woods."

"Are you looking for the woman under the tree?" Fang Li asked.

"Well," Xie Baiyuan said casually, "If it's a human or a ghost, you'll know when you find it."

This sentence is true, but probably only Xie Baiyuan is so bold.

"Are you still asleep?" Xie Baiyuan turned over, propped his head on his hands, and said with great interest: "Do you want to take a gamble?"

Fang Li was taken aback: "What are you betting on?"

Xie Baiyuan: "The people in the betting forest are people or ghosts. If I win, I will punish you with a kiss. If you win, I will punish you with a kiss."

Fang Li: "...Wait a minute, what's the bet on kissing?"

Xie Baiyuan: "Why doesn't it count? Isn't just kissing enough?"

Fang Li: "..." He had already given up on reasoning with the boss, "You say it."

"Good boy." Xie Baiyuan smiled and stretched out his hand to pinch his cheek, "Are you a ghost or a human?"

Fang Li hesitated for a few seconds before replying, "I think it's a human being."

Xie Baiyuan: "Why?"

Fang Li: "Because she didn't do anything to hurt Zhao Xue."

In some cases, there are rules for ghosts to kill, but in other cases, there is always no reason for how and when to kill.

Fang Li didn't think that after Zhao Xue confronted the female ghost, the female ghost would let her go.

It is extremely unlikely that the female ghost will let her go, and it is more likely that the other party is a human being.

Xie Baiyuan clicked his tongue, "Then I'm a ghost blocking the woods."

Fang Li turned his head to look at him. He actually didn't understand the meaning of Xie Baiyuan's proposed bet. Was it just for the so-called bet?

He sighed, he couldn't figure it out, so he just gave up thinking about it, took off his glasses and lay down to fall asleep.

At night, Xie Baiyuan was awakened again by the sound under the bed.

He glanced at the alarm clock quickly. Like last time, the hands showed that it was just past twelve.

The creaking sound of fingernails scratching the bed board came again, and Xie Baiyuan took out the knife calmly, but this time the sound seemed to have a long memory, and instead of crawling to his side, he quickly crawled towards Fang Li.

Xie Baiyuan felt bad, and immediately turned over to get up, but it was still a step too late.

A pale hand tightly grasped Fang Li's arm, and the sharp and long blue nails immediately left bloodstains on the white arm.

After such a big commotion, Fang Li finally woke up from his deep sleep.

When he opened his eyes, he saw Xie Baiyuan pressing on him, and his arm was dragged desperately by a ghost hand, and he froze immediately.

The thing under the bed seemed to be trying to drag Fang Li out of the bed, although it only used one hand, it seemed to have inexhaustible strength.

Xie Baiyuan's knife was of no use to it. Even though the skin was cut by the sharp blade, there was no bleeding from that hand, and it was hard to tell whether the thing under the bed felt pain or not.

At the same time, a young girl's voice repeated under the bed in an extremely desolate and resentful tone: "If you hang yourself on the hook, you must not change it for 100 years, and a liar will swallow a thousand silver needles! Hanging on the hook, you must not change it..."

"Swallow you uncle." Xie Baiyuan was really angry. Since he couldn't break free, he grabbed the pale arm of the thing under the bed instead, and his tone was more like the evil ghost Raksha who climbed up from hell than the thing under the bed.

Fang Li had never seen such a stern expression on Xie Baiyuan's face. It was strange but strangely familiar. He saw Xie Baiyuan's lips opening and closing, and said word by word:

——"You dare to touch my people."

The coal mine is inspired by the movie "Survival Day". If you are interested, you can go and see it, about coal miners.
