Chapter 39: The Headless Corpse
I didn't try to comfort Jiang Huaibo, because I found that some things had been buried in his heart for too long. There are some things that he can't confide in anyone, including Tang Xi.
It was only now, in the face of me, that he gradually released the repression of these years.
When he calmed down, I asked him how the old professor died.
Jiang Huaibo waved his hand, asking me not to ask for a moment and continue to listen to him.
At that time, when he saw the appearance of the head, the whole person was frightened crazy, but the classmate who did a good job was relatively calm.
"Huaibo, call the police!" The classmate threw his mobile phone to Jiang Huaibo and got out of the car in a hurry.
Jiang Huaibo was about to call the police, but the classmate suddenly ran back to the car and asked breathlessly, "Are we mistaken?" ”
Jiang Huaibo didn't react to what he meant for a while, and the classmate looked at him suspiciously: "There are no heads at all, are we dazzled?" ”
Looking at the eyes? How is that possible?
But the fact is that the two got out of the car again, but they didn't find the head at all, and even the blood stains on the windshield were gone.
The classmate said that the two must have been here for a long time, and they were dazzled.
Although he himself felt that the two of them were wrong at the same time, there was only this explanation. The head may have rolled somewhere and was not found for a while, but the blood on the car could not have disappeared on its own.
The classmate asked Jiang Huaibo if he wanted to call the police, Jiang Huaibo calmed down and thought about it, and said don't call the police yet, and let the classmate drive to the next station as soon as possible.
The classmate also felt that this matter was incredible, so he immediately didn't say a word, stepped on the accelerator to the end, and finally rushed to the station before the train docked.
The two of them hurriedly bought tickets, got on the bus, searched all the way along the aisle, and finally found the carriage where the senior mother and senior sister were.
But the strange thing is that although the faces of the mother and daughter are not very good-looking, they don't look like something has happened.
Seeing Jiang Huaibo, both mother and daughter were a little surprised, and the senior sister's expression eased somewhat.
She also wishfully thought that it was Jiang Huaibo who had a change of heart, so she followed the car.
Senior sister glanced at Jiang Huaibo and asked in a low voice, "Why are you here?" ”
Jiang Huaibo didn't care what she was thinking at this time, because he didn't see the professor.
The classmate was even more anxious to ask: Where did the professor go?
As soon as the words fell, the shoulders of the two were tapped at the same time.
When I turned around, I saw a person looking at them with a smile, and it turned out to be the old professor.
"Huaibo, you're here." The old professor smiled and patted Jiang Huaibo on the shoulder again, and turned to the classmate, "You kid, you can never change the problem of good things." I knew you had to come along. ”
The two looked at each other, and they both felt strange, how did it sound, as if the professor had known that the two of them would be on this train?
The professor beckoned the two to sit down, and Jiang Huaibo looked at the professor's face again with a stomach full of suspicion, but found that he couldn't see the professor's life.
Looking at his wife and sister again, they actually look like they have an uncertain future.
Jiang Huaibo felt even more strange, could it be that because of the previous fright, he was wasted?
Although he felt grotesque, he and the classmate were relieved to see that the professor's family was safe and sound.
When they met their senior sister again, both of them were a little embarrassed.
The old professor seemed to ignore the two of them, just said a few ordinary words to Jiang Huaibo first, and actually smiled and talked to his lover.
Although the professor is usually kind, he is by no means a person who talks much, but this time he unexpectedly talked about some things that Jiang Huaibo and even his daughter had never heard of.
He kept smiling, looking at his wife, telling how the two met when they were young, how they fell in love with each other, and how many ups and downs and vicissitudes of the world they experienced together.
Later, the three young men were so stupid that they completely forgot what was on their minds.
Time flew by, and before you knew it, the train had reached its end.
It wasn't until he got out of the car that the old professor let go of the hand he had been holding his lover and called Jiang Huaibo aside alone.
The professor said, "Waibo, stay here and do something for me." ”
"To ...... What do you want me to do? Jiang Huaibo asked.
"Tomorrow is my father's birthday, and I will go back to pay my respects to the old man no matter what. You just have to stay at the station and take care of some things for me. ”
The old professor paused, and then said, "Son, promise me that no matter what happens, you will not contact my lover and daughter first. We'll be back here early the day after tomorrow, and when the time comes, you'll understand everything. ”
Jiang Huaibo had never heard the old professor speak to him in such a tone, and although he was confused, he was still busy nodding his head and agreeing.
Just about to ask the professor again what he wanted to do, the old professor had already turned around and told his wife, daughter and classmate that he wanted Jiang Huaibo to help him do something, and asked the three of them to follow him back to his hometown first.
Although everyone, including Jiang Huaibo himself, was curious, since the professor said so, no one objected.
In this way, Jiang Huaibo was left alone at the train station.
Seeing that other passengers were leaving the station one after another, except for the staff, there was only himself left on the platform, Jiang Huaibo was at a loss.
What exactly is the professor going to do for him himself?
At this moment, several policemen suddenly rushed over.
Jiang Huaibo felt an inexplicable sigh in his heart, and subconsciously ran in one direction after the police.
When I ran to a carriage, I saw a bunch of crew members and policemen inside, and everyone's faces were very ugly.
Because of the chaos at the scene, no one noticed Jiang Huaibo.
I followed the car and came to a sleeper car, where I saw two police officers standing in front of an oversized plastic woven bag.
The zipper of the woven bag had been opened, and Jiang Huaibo only glanced at the bag, and he felt that his eyes were black, and he almost fainted on the spot.
What was in the bag turned out to be a headless male corpse!
……
Jiang Huaibo said with red eyes: "I only found out at that time...... I know what the professor told me to do. Before we could get into the car, he was dead. ”
I could roughly imagine the situation and asked him, "How did the professor die?" ”
"He wanted to walk around the carriage and relax, because ...... Because of his senior sister's business, he was upset. Later, he saw a thief who was stealing a woman's purse. He tried to stop it, but it turned out to be ...... As a result, he was dragged into the carriage by the thief and his accomplices. Later, the bastards were caught, and according to their accounts, they pressed the professor against the window, originally to scare him into not being nosy. How do you know that the train just entered the tunnel, and a freight train came on......"
