Although it is not the peak dining period, the "Shang Kee" restaurant is still overcrowded.
Gao Meilan and the others had their faces covered, so their identities were not revealed, so they naturally had no privileges. They waited in line for nearly twenty minutes before there was an empty table for them to sit down.
Gao Meilan took the lead and ordered more than ten local specialties. While the others were waiting, they listened to the conversation from the guests at the table next to them, which gradually became bizarre.
A man in his thirties, while drinking tea, said in a low voice to the people at the same table: "Have you heard that our sky is not peaceful recently? There are a lot of new supernatural stories coming from many places."
"Don't tell me, I've actually heard of one, and it's quite credible."
A man in his twenties at the same table slapped his thigh upon hearing this and started talking enthusiastically.
"I have a female colleague with whom I have always had a good relationship. When she came to work yesterday morning, I felt that she was restless and had a strange look on her face.
At first I thought she didn't have a good rest the night before, or maybe she was out of love.
Unexpectedly, during lunch yesterday, she told me about a supernatural incident that happened to her."
Hearing what the man in his twenties said, several other people at the table showed interest and asked him to speak quickly.
Fang Lin and others were also attracted by this man's story and listened attentively.
"My female colleague's surname is Sun. She is younger than me and is considered a new colleague. I usually call her Xiao Sun.
The community building where Xiao Sun's family lives is on the second floor.
The night before yesterday, when she went home, she bought a lot of fruit. When she entered the community, her feet sprained, so she called her mother and asked her mother to come downstairs to pick her up.
After a while, her mother went downstairs and met Xiao Sun at the gate of the community. She helped Xiao Sun carry the fruit, and the mother and daughter took the elevator home together.
But just as she and her mother took the elevator back to the second floor, and the elevator door opened, her phone rang.
The caller ID showed her mother's number.
Xiao Sun may have been a little absent-minded and distracted at the time, so he didn't react and answered the call.
Then she heard her mother ask her on the other end of the phone: 'Xiao Sun, I've arrived at the gate of the community, where are you?
'" Then Xiao Sun was stunned for a moment! When she was distracted, she discovered that the mother who went upstairs with her was missing! And the bag of fruit that her mother helped her carry was on the ground at the entrance of the elevator.
Throw it away."
Having said this, the young man shook his head and sighed: "You don't know, my colleague Xiao Sun was so frightened that night that he couldn't sleep at all. When he arrived at the company this morning, he was still in a state of disbelief.
Woolen cloth."
“Damn it, it’s really fake.
Isn’t it so scary?”
A woman at the same table smacked her tongue secretly.
The man in his thirties said with a serious expression: "It should be true. You may not come into contact with many people, so you don't know many things. As far as I know, there have been many similar supernatural events in Tianqiong City recently.
.
Moreover, someone discovered that our local online security checks in Tianqiong City have been particularly strict recently, and some posts were deleted not long after they were posted.
Some chat groups were quickly blocked because they posted messages related to supernatural events.
I heard from a friend who works in the bureau that there has been some unrest recently. He asked his family and friends not to go out at night..." A few people were still chatting, but Gao Meilan and others lost interest in continuing to listen.
The supernatural story is not bad, but it gets more and more outrageous later on.
However, Fang Lin looked a little heavy and frowned slightly.
He could see a faint evil spirit in the young man in his twenties who had just told the supernatural story.
This shows that even if he has not hit a ghost, he has at least been in contact with someone who has.
From this point of view, the little grandson he mentioned must be a real person, and the supernatural story must also be true.
Combined with the fact that Master Pu Hui and others have come to Tianqiong City to investigate for several days, it is enough to show that Tianqiong City has indeed not been peaceful in recent days, as the middle-aged man said.
Ordinary people may not know it, but undercurrents are surging, and the entire Linyi City has turned into an extremely dangerous whirlpool after the people from the Fuxi Divine Clan and the Huaxia Mansion gathered together.
For Fang Lin, the few supernatural ghost stories are not scary. What is scary is the methods of the Fuxi Clan here.
The last time in Surabaya City, if Fang Lin had taken action a little later, tens of thousands of people in the entire Surabaya City would have turned into deformed Fuxi tribe.
Tianqiong City is even more prosperous, with a population of tens of millions. If the Fuxi Clan here uses similar methods, the consequences will be unimaginable.
While Fang Lin was thinking, the food and wine were served, and several people began to use their chopsticks.
When they started to eat, in order not to be recognized by others, Gao Meilan and others still kept their heads lowered as much as possible, even though there were curtains dividing the private rooms.
Fang Lin was also used to their forced behavior, so he carefully put vegetables on the plate in front of Gao Meilan, so that Gao Meilan could eat more conveniently.
While they were eating, the phone of the man in his twenties sitting next to him suddenly rang.
The man took out his phone, looked at it, and exclaimed, "What a coincidence, it's my female colleague Xiao Sun who called me."
When the people at the table heard this, they all fell silent and looked at the man answering the phone, becoming a little curious.
One of the women said: "Turn on the speaker and let me hear what she wants from you."
The man smiled and nodded, answered the phone, and turned on the speaker.
He was about to ask Xiao Sun what was wrong, but he heard Xiao Sun crying in horror on the phone: "Liu Le, where are you?"
Liu Le was stunned for a moment and said truthfully: "I was having dinner with my friends at the Shang Kee next to our company. What's wrong?"
Xiao Sun said in fear and helplessness: "Can you come to the company and save me?"
Liu Le asked: "What's wrong? What happened?"
Xiao Sun said: "My mother called me just now and said that she had stewed the pork rib soup and sent it to me downstairs of the company for me to pick it up."
Liu Le originally wanted to say that you should go down and get it, but when the words came to his lips, he felt that things could never be that simple.
Others also realized that things were not simple. After all, the supernatural protagonist in the supernatural story about Xiao Sun was none other than Xiao Sun's mother.
Sure enough, Xiao Sun's voice continued: "But, my mother never knows how to make pork rib soup.
Moreover, I just started working and she doesn’t even know where my company is!”
Liu Le and the others looked at each other, a little scared and excited.
Liu Le squinted his eyes and said, "You mean, the mother who comes to deliver you the pork rib soup now may have a problem, right?"
Xiao Sun said: "I told you about that. You should understand what I mean. I want you to confirm it for me downstairs in the company. I will send you a photo of my mother later."
Liu Le nodded and said with a smile: "No problem! I will help you take a look now. Don't worry, leave this matter to me!"
After hanging up the phone, people at the table grabbed each other's clothes and bags and stood up to pay, looking impatient.
After all, supernatural events are enough to attract people's curiosity.
What's more, there are so many of them and it's broad daylight, so there's nothing to be afraid of.
Fang Lin raised his eyebrows, put down his chopsticks, and said to Gao Meilan and others: "You guys eat first, I'll go out and smoke a cigarette."
"Just smoke here, no smoking allowed."
Gao Meilan said.
Fang Lin shook his head, smiled, and said, "I'll go out and smoke."
"All right."
Gao Meilan shrugged and smiled at him.
Fang Lin stood up and walked out, following Liu Le and others.
