Chapter 4 The Glaring Gaze
Pushing open the door of the Chunlai Teahouse, he saw a man wearing a black casual top sitting inside. There weren't many people in the teahouse today, so he must be the man who called earlier.
The man's name was Sun Xingye, and he had a younger sister named Sun Xingmei, who was 18 years old and in her second year of college. She was supposed to go home on vacation a month ago, but her family received her last call after she got off the train saying: she would be home soon. But after that, the person has disappeared, and so far no one alive to see the body.
A few days ago Sun Xingye's old lady suddenly dreamed that her daughter came back, and told her that it was too cold outside, and she didn't even have a piece of clothing on her. After waking up the dream, the old lady thought that this thing is not right, it seems that the daughter is only afraid of the fate of the dead.
The police have been looking for more than a month, but still no results. So they asked someone to find Master Li. The master Lai gave his sister prayed a fortune after, said his sister is only afraid of already gone, now the first priority is to find the girl's body, so that it into the ground.
But how easy it is, the local police mobilized hundreds of people in the vicinity of the area to look for the search for Sun Xingmei have not found, they look for their own is even more difficult to stir up the sky. In the end, or master Li gave my phone to Sun Xingye, he just found me.
I listened to Sun Xingye told things before and after, only then remembered a few days ago that met Uncle Lai. I originally thought he was just a horseman around that what Kuang total, but today heard Sun Xingye so, he turned out to be a powerful character ah!
Sun Xingye looking for sister eager, he promised me, if I can help their family to find his sister, will give me 30,000 honorarium, if they can not find them will also manage my round-trip fare and food and housing and all other costs.
As soon as I heard this, I asked, "Where is your home? Is it far from here?
Sun Xingye looked at me, "My home in Sichuan Ya'an."
I grew up this big or the first time to go to Sichuan, is now the days of July, the weather here is wet and hot, I'm this authentic northerners really some unaccustomed to.
Sun Xingye's home in Ya'an, a small county, this place in 2013 after the catastrophe, almost all the buildings are rebuilt, so now the streets are particularly well planned, on the surface should be a fairly affluent place.
As soon as the two of us got off the train, Sun Xingye arranged for me to stay at a very local hotel called "Ba Shu". He had high hopes for me, so he took good care of me along the way. This somewhat makes me a little embarrassed, because after all, how the situation I do not dare to guarantee, if the girl is to let the traffickers abducted, then I really can not help.
"Bashu" hotel boss lady is a northeastern people, she saw me is extraordinarily enthusiastic. I don't know if it's because I'm too charismatic or she's just like that with every guest.
"Handsome man, first time in Sichuan?" The boss's wife said with a smile on her face.
I did not directly answer this question, but turned the tables and asked her a question, "Boss lady, listen to your accent is the Northeast ah! Where in the northeast?"
She looked me up and down, smiled and said, "Heilongjiang, married here a few years ago, then that deadbeat died in a car accident, I'm a woman had to top this hotel dry."
And she gossiped a few words after I took the room card to room 305, a room door opened, a musty smell came, smoked me straight frown. Sun Xingye saw the situation busy embarrassed and said: "The weather here is a bit humid, so the room is more or less moldy smell, you northern people may not be too accustomed to." Said he went to the window to reach the window open.
I smiled at him and said, "It's okay, just get used to it!"
Seeing that I wasn't too concerned, he said with a grateful face, "Jinbao brother, you must be tired after just arriving, today you first rest well, tomorrow morning I'll come back to pick you up and take you to my house."
I nodded and said, "Okay, then you go back and rest first too."
After Sun Xingye left, I took a long breath, finally I can lie down quietly alone for a while! But as soon as I lay down on the bed I felt that the bedding was just like it had been taken out of the dumping bucket, the dampness made me feel all out of energy. The thought of staying in a room like this for the next few days made me feel miserable ......
This "Bashu" hotel location location is not bad, outside is a street road, daytime is okay, a night outside is a night market street! The sounds of people selling goods and laughing and joking made it impossible for me to go to bed early.
I had no choice but to get dressed and go downstairs to this exceptionally lively night market. I came down to take a look, rather than a night market here is more like a snack street, where vendors set up stalls to buy all kinds of specialty snacks from Sichuan.
I can not get off the taste of a few, and finally eat the mouth are numb, it seems that these snacks have a common characteristic, that is spicy.
But just as I lowered my head to eat the skewers in my hand, I suddenly felt a stern gaze shot from a distance, I was shocked and quickly turned back to look! But there were too many pedestrians coming and going behind me, and it was hard to find the owner of that gaze just now.
Since I was a child, I have always believed in my own feelings, although I do not know whether that gaze is good or evil to me, but one thing I am sure of, that is, he has been paying attention to me.
Like me such an inconspicuous outsider was stared at is not a good thing, think of this I busy check out and leave. Back to the room after my heart has been a little panicky, through the curtains I secretly glanced at the pedestrians on the street below, but did not find anything unusual.
A night without dreams, originally I slept well, but I do not know whether spicy things to eat too much, or the bedding is too damp reason, in the middle of the night actually went to the toilet a few times, engaged in the sleep is not sleeping well.
The next morning, Sun Xingye less than 8 o'clock came, his mood I can understand, after all, is the pro sister is gone, but also live and see no one dead, anxious to know the result is normal, so he and I simply ate a little breakfast and drove straight to his home to go......
Sun Xingye's home is a two-story building, the front yard is a production of motorcycle parts of the small factories, the backyard put are some processed semi-finished products, look at the situation of the family should be good.
His parents are also ordinary farmers, a look at Sun Xingye invited me to come, but also the eyes with tears looking at me ...... by their face of expectations, my heart back to no bottom.
Sun Xingmei's room on the second floor, before I came to Sun Xingye said, need his sister at home when the favorite thing to find people. Available Sun Xingye words, he does not understand this sister. Think about it, Sun Xingye this year more than thirty, but this sister of his is only 18 years old, age generation gap is obvious.
