Chapter 144 Uncle

Jiang Cheng suddenly found the sun on his shoulders. He looked back and found that the sun had already set halfway up the mountain.

From the time they sneaked into the main house of the Qian family, it has been no more than 2 hours.

They sneaked into the main house at noon when the sun was the strongest. The sun set so soon?

"We don't have much time left," Chen Xiaomeng glanced at the sunset halfway up the mountain and explained, "The closer we get to the end of the mission, the more obvious the abnormalities in our world will be."

Jiang Cheng nodded. The same was true for the first two missions he experienced.

The daytime hours became shorter and shorter, until the whole world fell into eternal night.

They didn't have much time left.

"Do you remember our previous speculation?" Chen Xiaomeng said quickly, "The reason why the ghost put the body near Anping Town after killing people is because someone she really wants to kill is hiding in the town."

"To complete the mission, we have to find this person."

"Qian family." Jiang Cheng said.

Chen Xiaomeng nodded, "It should be. According to the village chief, the old village chief Qian had three sons, and they all died at the hands of ghosts. But according to the photos, there are not three sons, but four! I think the last one is hiding in Anping Town!"

"As long as we find him and send him out of Anping Town, I think this mission will be over."

Jiang Cheng frowned when he heard this.

Chen Xiaomeng seemed to have thought of something and asked in surprise, "You are not unwilling to do this, are you?"

In Chen Xiaomeng's impression, patients with ruthless personality disorder will not have the most basic compassion, let alone for strangers, even for relatives

"No," Jiang Cheng shook his head, "I think the person the ghost is looking for may not be a man, but a woman."

"What did you say?!"

Then Jiang Cheng told Chen Xiaomeng about the scene he saw in Anping Hotel, and the latter felt bad after hearing it, "You said there is a dark room at the end of the third floor of Anping Hotel, where a disfigured woman is hiding?"

"Yes."

"That's why you and Zhou Rong were delayed upstairs for so long."

"That's right," Jiang Cheng said angrily, "I wanted to tell you at the time, but Zhou Rong refused to agree. He threatened me that if I dared to leak this matter, I would be in trouble. Then Then he gloated and said that he had tricked you idiots to death. "

Chen Xiaomeng: "

Jiang Cheng waited for a while and asked, "Why don't you thank me?"

Chen Xiaomeng rolled his eyes at him, "The reason you revealed this to me now is just because Anping Hotel is an important clue location, and there must be risks in it. You revealed it to me to attract me to go with you and share the risks. In the end, it's me who helped you, and you should thank me if you want to thank me."

"Tsk," Jiang Cheng said dissatisfiedly, "I think it's better to send you back to the ghost. You don't know how to be grateful!"

"Stop talking nonsense," Chen Xiaomeng sat there with one foot up, and her mature dress made her look like a queen. "What do you want to do next?"

Before she finished speaking, Jiang Cheng stood up suddenly as if he suddenly thought of something, which scared Chen Xiaomeng. She thought the ghost was chasing her.

"I have a date," Jiang Cheng said, "I almost forgot."

"Date?"

"Yeah," Jiang Cheng picked up the two photos, stuffed them into his pocket, and ran out, "I'll go first, you can do whatever you want." A moment later, Jiang Cheng's distorted voice came from outside the door.

Chen Xiaomeng gritted his teeth and chased after him, the two photos were important clues.

The sunset lasted longer than Jiang Cheng thought. He ran along the bluestone road in front of the door and ran all the way to a simple courtyard. Here, he saw a familiar figure standing under the tree and looking around.

"Honghong," Jiang Cheng greeted, "I'm here."

But to Jiang Cheng's surprise, the little girl Honghong was not as enthusiastic as he imagined, but stood there, waiting for him to walk over, with a very strange expression.

At this time, Chen Xiaomeng also chased after him, and when he saw Honghong, he secretly cursed Jiang Cheng for being shameless.

Honghong's two red frozen hands tightly grasped the hem of her cotton coat, and said with an unnatural expression: "Don't come to see me next time, my mother said, I'm still young, men and women"

After saying this, Honghong seemed to have forgotten the words. She anxiously pulled the braids on her head and turned around in a hurry.

"Men and women should not be intimate," Chen Xiaomeng smiled and walked up. Compared with Jiangcheng, her appearance was undoubtedly much better.

She took out a fruit from somewhere and teased Honghong, "Sister is not a man, so we are not afraid of not being intimate between men and women, right?"

Honghong stared at the fruit in Chen Xiaomeng's hand, her eyes moved up and down and left and right with the fruit, but she didn't reach out.

Until

"Crack--"

The courtyard door was pushed open, Jiangcheng and Chen Xiaomeng looked at the same time, and a man dressed fairly reliable walked out.

About 35 years old, blue overalls, military green pants, the whole person looked very energetic.

He waved to Honghong first, and Honghong reluctantly took a last look at the fruit, then ran back to the yard and stood not too far from the man.

Then the man looked up and smiled at Jiangcheng Chen Xiaomeng, "You are the masters invited by the village chief, thank you for taking the trouble to come here to help us."

Chen Xiaomeng looked at him and asked, "Who are you?"

The man rolled up his sleeves and trouser legs, walked to the vegetable garden in front of the yard, and while skillfully using tools to take care of the weeds in the vegetable garden, he replied: "I am Honghong's uncle. I came here to help take care of the vegetable garden today. It's too hard for Honghong to take care of the children alone. Now, she is sick. I came here to help as much as I can."

"Thank you for your hard work." Chen Xiaomeng nodded.

"Not hard, not hard," the man replied, "Mother Honghong is the one who is hard-working. I didn't have time to come over recently."

Jiang Cheng narrowed his eyes and suddenly asked, "I heard that Honghong's grandmother is sick. How is she now?"

"Alas," the man seemed to be saddened by this, and his mood became gloomy. After a long while, he sighed and said, "Grandma Honghong has an old illness. She suffers every year at this time. This year is particularly serious. She can't speak or get out of bed."

"So serious?" Jiang Cheng said as he was about to go in, "Fortunately, I know a little about medicine. I'll go and see if I can..."

The man immediately rushed to the gate of the courtyard and stopped Jiang Cheng, "We appreciate the kindness of the master, but Grandma Honghong's illness is very complicated. The village has sent people to the town. The conditions there are better, and the doctors are not comparable to the barefoot doctors in the village."

"Then mother Honghong should always be at home," Jiang Cheng said anxiously, "I am a doctor in a big city, I should be able to help her."
