Chapter Twenty-Three: Have You Seen Me?
After Xia Qi continued to knock for a while, he heard a somewhat muffled voice sound from the courtyard:
"It's coming, don't knock, who's this?"
Hearing that someone inside came out, Xia Qi stopped knocking down, hugged his shoulders and quietly waited for the person inside to open the door. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Soon, the people inside opened the courtyard gate, and a middle-aged man about 50 years old walked out of it.
The man's complexion is somewhat dark, his face is broad, his nose is wide, and although he is not tall, his figure looks very strong.
"Huh? Mr. Xia, what are you ...... This ......"
Seeing this sturdy man, Xia Qi was just about to make a brief introduction, and said something that made him feel a little creepy.
"We've seen each other before?"
Xia Qi retracted the lines he had prepared in advance and asked the man in front of him tentatively.
"Mr. Xia, you're nothing, right? You scared me when you said that, you didn't really run out to scare me, did you? ”
"I don't understand what you mean."
Xia Qi looked at the sturdy man in front of him suspiciously, and he was also pondering in his heart.
"I don't mean anything, hey, I'm confused by you, yes, let's go into the house first, let's go inside, okay?"
The man beckoned Xia Qi in, and in the process of walking into the house, Xia Qi learned that this man was not the village secretary of the dead son, but the village chief of Xiangfeng Township-Li You.
"Mr. Xia, please take a seat."
Li You was very polite to Xia Qi, although Xia Qi still didn't know what was going on in the middle, as Li You, who had never met him, why was he able to recognize him, and it seemed that he still knew him.
After Xia Qi sat down with a strange face, his eyes began to look around the room, this room is equivalent to the living room of the building, and there is also a kitchen, as for the sleeping bedroom, it is no longer here, it is the room next door, although the two rooms are connected, but they are not connected to each other.
"Tell me, Village Chief Li, what happened just now?"
After Xia Qi took a quick look, he once again threw the question that had bothered him to Li You again.
When Li You heard Xia Qi's question, he also showed an inexplicable expression, opened his mouth but didn't know how to answer, and after thinking about it, he said:
"Mr. Xia, to be honest, you've confused me, I still want to ask you, how did you get out just now?"
"What, how did I get out?"
Hearing Li You say this, Xia Qi couldn't help but have a guess in his heart that made him feel cold in his heart, so he asked uncertainly:
"Don't tell me I was sitting here talking to you just now? Did you go out when you heard a knock on the door, and what you saw when you opened the door or me? ”
"Yes, that's it! I'll just say you're trying to tease me, hey, you young people just like to be funny. ”
Even though Xia Qi's expression didn't look like he was joking with him, Li You didn't take it seriously at all, otherwise would he still have to believe that there were two Xia Qi in this world?
So this situation will occur, there is no doubt that it must be a prank made by Xia Qi.
Xia Qi felt a little numb in his scalp, and felt that long before he came, there was a ghost thing disguised as him and sitting here chatting with Li You. It wasn't until he started slamming the door that Li You went out to open the door that the ghost crept slipped away.
A ghost that can be disguised, Xia Qi has seen a lot, and the reason why he feels a little numb in his scalp is that the ghost thing has become his appearance.
The thought of having a ghost who looks exactly like him is a terrifying thing in itself.
"To say something that may seem false to you, I don't remember anything that just happened, please give me an account of how I found you, and then open the door to me.
It's important to me, so you don't leave even one link behind. ”
Looking at Xia Qi's extremely serious expression, the smile on Li You's face gradually became stiff, and he wanted to subconsciously refuse, but he had to agree hard.
"Just about 15 minutes ago, I was thinking about things in the living room when I heard a knock on the door and I went out.
When I opened the door, I found you outside, and since I hadn't seen you, I asked who you were and what was the matter with me. Then you took out your ID and said that you are a ZF agent, belonging to the Special Incidents Investigation Team, and you have come to us to find out more about the situation.
So I took you into the house, and you began to ask me about the village secretary's son. He also asked me if there were any recent deaths or disappearances in my village, except for the death of the village secretary's son.
Then I began to ask if you were going to investigate Xiangfeng Township, and you said no, but you were investigating a special incident, and this incident may be related to the village chief's son, and it also implicated other people in the village, telling me to cooperate well and not to have any worries.
I said it must be fine, and I must cooperate, but before I could say anything, I heard someone banging on the door loudly, so I went to open the door.
That's the way it is. ”
After Li You finished speaking, he peeked at Xia Qi with some suspicion, I don't know if this is deliberately pretending to be crazy and stupid to test him or what, in short, he still doesn't believe it in his heart, Xia Qi doesn't know anything about Fang Cai's affairs, if that's the case, then it's hell.
After listening to Li You's narration, Xia Qi took out a box of cigarettes from the pocket of his pants, and then handed one to Li You, Li You hurriedly thanked him politely after taking it:
"This cigarette is a good cigarette, I think it's about 300 yuan a box."
Li You was a little reluctant to smoke and sniffed, but Xia Qi smiled indifferently, then lit the cigarette on his mouth and took a big puff.
Seeing that Xia Qi didn't say anything, Li You couldn't help but ask curiously:
"That...... I would like to take the liberty of asking a question, should it be good to be in your business? ”
"It's okay, but it's definitely better than you, the village chief." Summer Qi replied meaningfully.
"Don't, don't say that, my pocket is cleaner than my face, just to earn a salary."
Li Youke was afraid that the spy sitting next to him would check him, so he hurriedly dissociated himself from the other village chiefs.
Xia Qi smiled, didn't care about Li You's style, pressed the remaining half of the cigarette into the ashbox, Xia Qi turned back to the topic, and asked Li You:
"Was I there for you when you heard the knock on the door?"
"Yes, otherwise I wouldn't think it's incredible."
Li You nodded very affirmatively.
Seeing that Li You was very sure of this, Xia Qi muttered in his heart, feeling that the ghost thing that was pretending to be him seemed to know everything about his whereabouts. (To be continued.) )
