Chapter 37 A Ghostly Shadow
Lao Chen said that he followed Mr. He up the small stairs to the safety passage. When he found Mr. He, he seemed to see a shadow behind Mr. He?
A strange shadow?
Both the male police officer and the female police officer asked curiously, what did he mean by "shadow"?!
They also asked Lao Chen to explain this detail carefully?
Lao Chen lowered his head and closed his eyes, seeming to be thinking and reminiscing.
I think Lao Chen is more like looking for a suitable word to describe the so-called shadow he saw.
After a while, Lao Chen explained: "I don't know how to describe it. It's not accurate to say that it is a shadow, because ordinary shadows should be flat, but that thing is three-dimensional. Yes, it is like
It's like a cloud of smoke, a gray-white smoke, but the shape of the smoke looks like a person, so I said that thing is a shadow..."
Lao Chen recalled while talking...
I was listening attentively, but I looked at the middle-aged dark-faced police officer. Judging from his expression, I felt that he did not believe what Old Chen said.
"Are you sure you're not dazzled?" the female police officer couldn't help but ask.
Lao Chen shook his head and said solemnly: "No, no, I really saw a shadow. That thing was just like a person, with a head and four limbs, and the hands and feet of that thing were all caught on Mr. He's body.
On the back, so Mr. He’s back is like carrying a person..."
"Okay, let's just believe what you said," the male police officer scratched his eyebrows with his fingers, "When you saw a shadow behind Mr. He, you were surprised. Then, after you saw this scene,
How did you do it?"
"I...I didn't do anything!" Lao Chen replied.
"Nothing was done?" the female police officer asked in confusion, "Shouldn't you remind Mr. He?"
Lao Chen smiled bitterly and said: "How dare I? I was so scared that I almost peed myself, so I planned to turn around and go downstairs to leave that ghost place..."
"Wait a minute," the male police officer seemed to have noticed a detail. He frowned and asked, "According to the information we got, Mr. He should be your superior. You saw something strange about your superior. As a subordinate, you
Employee, shouldn't we remind him, but why do you only think about escaping on your own?"
When the male police officer asked this question, I guessed that he felt strange, or maybe he thought so...
As a subordinate, Lao Chen should show a flattering attitude when dealing with his superiors. Moreover, that is a good opportunity to please his superiors. Even if he does not help, he should at least remind Mr. He?
But I feel that Lao Chen is not lying, because I have been in contact with Lao Chen for these days, and I understand Lao Chen better.
He runs away immediately when he sees danger, which is in line with Lao Chen's character.
Lao Chen is very timid, just like an ostrich. When encountering something terrible, his first thought is to run away and hide far away.
As for whether Mr. He's life is in danger, this old Chen won't care!
Seeing that Lao Chen couldn't answer, the male police officer continued to ask: "What happens next? Just keep talking!"
"After that..." Old Chen shook his head with confused eyes, "After that... I don't know..."
"I don't know anymore?!" the female police officer asked.
"Why?!" the male police officer asked.
"I...after I saw the shadow, I wanted to turn around and go downstairs to leave, but I was too scared at the time. When I went downstairs, I tripped. Although I didn't fall, I still made some noises under my feet...
…”
"Then what?"
The female police officer seemed to be drawn in by Lao Chen's story, and she listened very carefully.
"Then I suddenly looked back. I was afraid that the sound I just made had disturbed the shadow, because... because I... I felt that the shadow was alive..." At this point, Lao Chen swallowed a mouthful of saliva, "
As a result...it turned out that I guessed it right. The shadow heard the sound behind it, and its head turned 180 degrees. I...I...I saw..."
The female police officer took a deep breath before asking: "You mean, that shadow still has a face?!"
"Yes, but not entirely..." Lao Chen nodded and said.
"Can you please be more clear?" the female police officer asked again.
"That's a face, yes, but it's very blurry. I can't see the facial features clearly, but the clearest thing is only two eyes. No... those are not eyes, just... just a pair of black holes... just like... just
Like..."
"It's like a skull, right?!" I couldn't help but interject.
"Yes, yes, it's like a skull without flesh!!!"
When Lao Chen said this, he began to gasp for air, as if those few short words just now had consumed a lot of his energy!
However……
Before Lao Chen could catch his breath, the male police officer continued to ask with a sullen face and a look of disbelief: "You mean that shadow has discovered you, and then what did the shadow do to you?!"
Lao Chen began to shake his head vigorously: "No... I don't know!"
"I don't know, what do you mean by don't know?!" the female police officer asked.
"When I found the shadow and turned to look at me, I felt a huge force rushing towards me. I flew into the air and was pushed directly to the wall by the huge force.
After being hit, I slipped from the wall onto the stairs, and after that...I didn’t know anything after that..."
The male police officer asked Lao Chen in a light tone: "Haha, you mean, the reason why you fell unconscious on the stairs was because you were attacked by the power emitted by the shadow?!"
"Yes, yes!" Lao Chen nodded his head seriously.
"Humph, that's nonsense!" The male police officer stood up vigorously, pointed at Old Chen's nose and asked, "Are you suffering from insomnia and neurasthenia lately?"
"Yes...right?" Lao Chen raised his head and asked, "You...how did you know?!"
"Haha, I think you are daydreaming and talking nonsense!!!"
The male police officer probably didn't believe it at all. In fact, no one else would believe it after hearing Lao Chen's "ghost story" confession.
"Comrade police, you asked me to tell the truth, but you didn't believe me when I told you, so I kept pretending to be asleep just now because I didn't want to tell you this. Now you understand my difficulties!"
"Hmph, I think you'd better not leave the hospital. I'll contact the neurologist for you now and give you a thorough examination..."
Upon hearing what the male police officer said, Lao Chen jumped out of bed excitedly: "Comrade police, I'm not mentally ill, really..."
"Then we have to wait until we check it before we can tell..."
Lao Chen pointed at me, perhaps thinking that I was a life-saving straw: "If you don't believe it, you can ask Xiao Ma, he can prove that I am mentally normal!"
As a result, the male police officer glanced at me, tilted his mouth, and said with a sneer: "He can't prove anything, because I don't think he is normal. Otherwise, you two should check it out together!"
