Chapter 2: Disappearances
"Bing sent it?"
Zhang Yuanqing frowned after reading the contents of the letter.
What did it mean to be life-changing? What do you mean by unmanageable?
Really, the words aren't clear ....... He once again turned his gaze to the black card and observed it repeatedly, confirming that it was just a mediocre card, and if he had to say it was unusual, it just felt good in his hand and the material seemed to be rare.
Could it be the supreme card of a certain top club?36D misses are really only manageable by strange men like me.
Lei Yibing is his dead friend from childhood to play, nicknamed A Bing, two years older than him, grandparents have not yet purchased a new house, the two families live in a hutong.
Lei Yibing force speed double a, intelligence c, since childhood is very cover him, fighting in the front, beaten left behind the back, who ridiculed Zhang Yuanqing is no father's child, Lei Yibing will take the lead for him.
So Zhang Yuanqing has always called him Bing.
Bing's high school grades were not ideal, so he went to the next door to Jiangnan Province to study at the university, after that, separated from each other, they have less contact.
Zhang Yuanqing put the black card into the pocket of his punching bag while picking up his cell phone to send a message to Brother Bing to flirt:
"Which club is the supreme card, at least give me the address or contact information."
This message was sent over and no reply was received for half an hour.
Zhang Yuanqing simply dialed Brother Bing's phone.
"After two beeps, the phone was connected and a man's low voice came from the speaker:
"Hello! I'm Lei Yibing's father."
"Uncle Lei?" Zhang Yuanqing was stunned, then he said with joy:
"Brother Bing has returned to Songhai this week? You ask him to pick up the phone, I have something to find him."
There was silence on the other side of the phone for a moment, followed by the sound of a deep and painful voice:
"Yuanzi, I'm in Jiangnan Province. Bing, he's disappeared. ......."
Bing is missing? Zhang Yuanqing stood dumbfounded on the spot, and after a few seconds, asked blankly and eagerly:
"What happened?"
How could Brother Bing go missing, he clearly sent me something back.
"He disappeared the day before yesterday, your Aunt Zhou and I received a notice from the school yesterday and immediately rushed over." Uncle Lei was in a low mood.
"Did you call the police, what did the people from the Sheriff's Department say?" Zhang Yuanqing said in a deep voice.
Uncle Lei was silent for a long time and said with some hesitation:
"This matter is quite difficult to say, Ah Bing lost some strange ......"
Strange? What do you mean ...... Zhang Yuanqing froze.
Uncle Lei said:
"Ah Bing was the night before the big day in the dormitory disappeared, the police accessed the dormitory hallway surveillance, found that Ah Bing did not leave the dormitory for the whole night, but the next morning, the person disappeared.
"The students in the same dormitory said that they saw him before they went to bed, and when they woke up, there was no one there, and they thought he just went out."
Zhang Yuanqing blurted out, "How is this possible .......?"
Could it be that people would disappear out of thin air? This kind of talk is not something that a three year old child would believe.
Zhang Yuanqing suppressed the anxiety in his heart and lowered his voice:
"Uncle Lei, did Bing offend someone at school?"
The first thing that came to his mind was that Bing had offended someone at school, and the other party possessed a certain amount of power in the local area, which was why the surveillance couldn't see the problem, as it often meant that there was a cover-up on the part of the school.
In the era of the information explosion, but anyone who had been on the internet had more or less heard of similar things.
"The school leaders said they would try to cooperate with the police, while the police officers said they told us to go back and wait for news, they would investigate ....... Your aunt and I were up all night."
Uncle Lei's tone was mixed with frustration and worry.
Sure enough, this was the answer, damn it ........ Zhang Yuanqing took a deep breath and soothed:
"Don't be anxious for now, my grandpa and cousin both work for the Public Security Department, you know this. Back in the day, I will ask them how to deal with this kind of thing, what things to pay attention to, and if there's anything you don't understand and want to consult, feel free to call and contact me as well.
"In addition, you must ask your classmates at school, if Bing has offended someone, there will definitely be classmates who know about it."
Uncle Lei's heart was slightly relaxed as he said:
"Got it, Yuanzi, don't worry either, I'll let you know the first time I have news."
Hanging up the phone, Zhang Yuanqing was a little restless, pacing back and forth in the room, worried about Bing's safety.
It was impossible for people to go missing for no reason, the surveillance couldn't capture it, so it must be that the surveillance had been tampered with, it was just that he didn't know what kind of people Bing had offended.
But a junior student, and who can offend?
Wait, the day before yesterday, the missing ......
The day before the big day?
Zhang Yuanqing was violently shocked, express parcels from Jiangnan Province to Songhai, it takes 2-3 days, according to the time projection, Bing is to send me something after the night of the disappearance .......
This is a coincidence? Or is there some connection.
Thinking of this, he instinctively went to touch the black card in his pocket, but when he put his hand into his pocket, he suddenly froze.
The black card was gone.
Did it fall on the ground? Zhang Yuanqing hurriedly lowered his head, and his eyes quickly swept across the floor of the room.
No!
He got down on the floor and looked under the bed, which was covered with a layer of ash, as well as some coins, pens, buttons and other miscellaneous items, but there was no black card.
The card was gone, and he remembered very clearly that the item had been put in his pocket.
How did it just disappear into thin air?
Associated with Bing's mysterious disappearance, the letter with strange content, and the black card that had strangely disappeared, Zhang Yuanqing was inexplicably terrified and bewildered in his heart.
"Could the black card be related to Bing's disappearance? Or is it an important clue?"
Taking a deep breath, Zhang Yuanqing decided to use his "old illness" to reboot his memory.
He first poured cool water into a glass, took out the medicine bottle from the nightstand, unscrewed it, and then took off his shoes and lay on the bed.
After all this, he closed his eyes and remained motionless, visualizing his father's face in his mind.
The condition for the active triggering of an old illness was to quiet his mind and visualize an image, preferably one he had seen before but couldn't quite remember.
This will energize the brain, slowly warming it up and eventually boiling it over.
After all these years, my father's face, long blurred, was the perfect subject.
Time passed minute by minute, his father's face gradually went from blurry to clear, and finally slim, while Zhang Yuanqing's heart had beaten violently, like an overloaded engine.
At this moment, time seems to flow backwards, the picture of an hour ago, like a movie or TV drama, flashed by frame by frame.
He saw himself opening the courier package, reading the letter, putting the black card into the pocket of his punching bag, and the next step was to send a message to Bing.
By this point, he spent the next half hour sitting motionless at his desk, swiping through short videos for ten minutes, exchanging a few shibari pictures with the lsp's in the gaming group.
Saved a couple quality images.
Then read a novel for a few minutes, and called Bing because he was always thinking about the cards.
After the call, the moment of truth arrived, and he was anxiously walking around the room, which was the easiest point in time to drop the card.
In the memory screen, he saw himself frowning and pacing around the room before reaching out to touch the black card and realizing that the card was gone.
Zhang Yuanqing's eyes opened with a start and his face was filled with horror.
Gone?
The black card was just gone, vanished into thin air.
What in the hell did Bing send me ....... In an instant, he was a little numb.
It was too late to think about it, and the chaotic noise rang in his ears, like the voices of countless people superimposed on each other, and the broken images in his mind were like an erupting volcano, surging up in his head.
Warm liquid flowed through Zhang Yuanqing's nose, and his head felt as if steel nails had been driven into it.
His face twisted as he crawled towards the bed, shivering as he poured out five small blue pills and stuffed them into his mouth, then shivering as he picked up a cup of water and tilted his head back to swallow the pills and water together.
A few moments later, Zhang Yuanqing's face turned white as he sat at the head of the bed gasping for breath.
By this point, he was basically certain that there was some connection between Bing's disappearance and the black card.
"Brother Bing disappeared after sending me the black card, and that black card exists bizarrely, obviously not an ordinary thing ......."
This has to make people think that he might have suffered some kind of threat and was forced to transfer the items.
"But why didn't he give it to the local sheriff's department instead of sending it to me."
Could it be that I, a college student who hadn't even killed or slept with a chicken, was more reliable than the constable of the sheriff's department?
Zhang Yuanqing suddenly thought of the detail that "the surveillance and dormitory staff did not notice anything unusual".
If you can do this, you must have a certain degree of power.
Bing did not submit the black card to the local police department because ...... Can't trust the Sheriff's Department?
Or maybe the person or power that caused him to disappear has influence that reaches the local Sheriff's Department.
"He sent the black card to me because he knew that Grandpa was a retired sheriff and Cousin was a sheriff's captain, and that he had a pretty deep network in Songhai City, and that the people over in Jiangnan Province couldn't influence me?"
Gotta tell cousin about this.
"Dingdong~"
At that moment, he heard the doorbell ringing, coming from the entrance hall.
Granny's footsteps swirled, crossing the living room to the entrance hall and unscrewing the doorknob.
"Who are you looking for?"
"Hello, we are investigators from the Kangyang District Public Security Department, may I ask if Zhang Yuanqing is at home."
The person outside the door responded.
.......
PS: I beg the lords to collect, there is one more chapter in the evening.
