Chapter 59 Midnight Knocking
Taking the note Fang Taihe left for me, I felt a chill in my heart.
"An accident will happen tonight at midnight."
It seems that my guess is correct. The 6th of every month is the pattern for Meizhuang couriers to disappear.
Fang Taihe, an old guy, obviously already knows this rule, why didn't he tell me earlier.
If I hadn't stolen the files from the company's old location, and then used my Einstein-like IQ to deduce the pattern of accidents.
I definitely won't come to him.
Then, I’m afraid I don’t even know how I died!
Fang Taihe, an old fellow, likes to tell lies, and so does Blind Man Wu. Could it be said that all Taoists like to tell lies?
"Dahei will help you!"
After reading the last sentence on the note and looking down at Dahei, I couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Will Dahei help me?
As a dog, Dahei is very smart, but compared to the IQ of a human being, it is probably much inferior, not to mention that the other person is an evil ghost in the dark!
However, Dahei on the side seemed to sense my distrust of him, and barked at me several times to show his dissatisfaction.
Seeing this, I quickly spread my hands and said, "Dahei, don't be angry, I was joking."
I didn't expect this guy to be able to see changes in people's expressions.
Since Fang Taihe said that Dahei would help me, then he must have his reasons.
According to Fang Taihe's instructions, tonight at midnight is my deadline. As long as I don't leave this house, no ghosts can harm my life.
What's so difficult about this? Let alone not leaving the house for a whole night. As long as I can survive, I'm willing to not leave the house for a year!
It was getting completely dark. I took out my phone and saw that it was already past 7pm.
My stomach was already growling with hunger, and then I remembered that I haven't had a drop of water since morning.
Went to the kitchen, ready to find some food.
Fang Taihe, an old guy, doesn't know how he lives his daily life. There is nothing in the kitchen.
I cursed secretly and walked towards the back room again. Unfortunately, I didn't find anything to eat.
Looks like I'll just have to go hungry tonight.
After closing the door, out of fear, I sat on the kang and held Dahei in my arms.
I kept looking at the time, but Dahei seemed to be sensible and lay quietly in my arms, motionless.
It’s 11 o’clock at night, getting closer and closer.
My heart began to tighten, and my hands couldn't stop shaking.
When the pointer pointed to 11 o'clock, my heart suddenly became extremely nervous.
He stopped beating for a moment and held his breath.
Keep staring out the window and observing the situation outside.
Dahei in my arms also jumped out of my arms as if facing a formidable enemy, with his ears erect and staring straight out of the window.
Time passed by minute by minute, and nothing unusual happened.
After about an hour, my nervous spirit relaxed a little.
There was some doubt in my heart. Didn't Fang Taihe say that there would be an accident tonight at midnight?
But it’s been so long, why hasn’t it appeared yet?
Suddenly, there were knocks on the door.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
After I had just relaxed, I suddenly became nervous and shouted outside: "Who is it?"
"It's me." Fang Taihe's voice came from outside.
"Uncle Fang? You are finally back!"
When I heard Fang Taihe's voice, I breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed my spirit, as if my backbone was back.
After that, I jumped down from the ground and prepared to open the door for him.
When I walked to the door, I said outside again: "Uncle Fang, have you found a way to save me?"
"Found it, you open the door first!" Fang Taihe said.
"I know, let's go."
I put my hand on the door lock and was about to pull it open when suddenly a thought flashed through my mind:
"No matter who calls you, no matter what happens outside or inside, do not leave this room."
Fang Taihe emphatically added an exclamation mark on that note.
No matter who calls me, don't open the door. Does this include Fang Taihe?
Thinking of this, I put down my hand and asked tentatively outside: "Uncle Fang, didn't you say that no matter who it is, no one should open the door for you?"
Seeing that I didn't open the door, Fang Taihe was a little angry outside the door and cursed: "I think you have a brain problem. I was afraid that you would run away. Now that I'm back, I'm not afraid of you running away. Hurry up and give me
I'll open the door!"
This explanation seems reasonable.
He put his hand on the door lock again, hesitated for a moment, put it down again, and shouted outside:
"Uncle Fang, the note you left at that time was that no matter who called me, do not open the door.
To be on the safe side, please stay outside for a while.
Anyway, midnight is about to pass. If midnight passes and you are still outside, I will make amends to you."
Seeing that I didn't open the door, Fang Taihe was very angry and cursed outside the door.
I plugged my ears and returned to the kang.
I thought to myself, scold me, midnight will be over soon, and if I open the door for him after midnight, I will be beaten and scolded, and I will not refute a single word.
Fang Taihe cursed outside the door, probably because he was tired and stopped scolding.
I stared out the window, afraid of another accident.
Suddenly, a beautiful woman with a graceful figure, wearing a white dress and long hair shawl, stood outside the window and said to me through the window: "Gao Jin, have you missed me lately?"
My heart moved, it turned out to be Li Yan.
Why is she here?
He quickly asked her: "Li Yan? Why are you here?"
Dahei looked at Li Yan outside the window, showing his sharp teeth, whimpering, and the hair all over his body stood up.
Li Yan saw the big black dog next to me, took a few steps back in fear, and said to me: "It's a long story. The big black dog next to you is so scary. Can you come out for a moment? I'm scared!"
Hearing this, I slapped Dahei on the head and warned him not to scare my goddess.
Then he said towards the outside: "Oh, okay, I'll open the door right now."
I got off the ground and walked to the door. Just as I was about to open the door, I remembered Fang Taihe's advice again.
"No matter who it is, don't open the door!"
He lowered his raised hand again and shouted outside: "Li Yan, I'm sorry I can't open the door now. Please wait a little longer. I'll open the door again after 1 o'clock!"
Seeing that I didn't open the door, Li Yan outside the door was a little confused and asked, "Gao Jin, what are you doing? If you don't open the door, I'll leave!"
I quickly yelled: "No, just wait! I really won't open the door now!"
Li Yan was a little confused by me and said unhappily: "Don't come out, I don't care, let's pull him down!"
After that, he pretended to leave.
Seeing this, I quickly tried to persuade her to stay and said, "No, Li Yan, please, stay here for a while!"
Li Yan cursed loudly: "Come on, who are you to cooperate with my partner? It's like a toad that wants to eat swan meat. Let's break up!"
After that, he turned around and left.
