Old Lu Leng stood at the door, holding the door open with both hands. He did not answer Tan Xuan's words, nor did he invite Tan Xuan to come in. He just looked at Tan Xuan with a confused look on his face, and the confusion was a bit sudden.
"Is Zhengyang up?" Tan Xuan pushed Lao Lu aside and went directly into the shop.
"Zhengyang... Zhengyang hasn't gotten up yet. He plays games every day. Sometimes he stays up all night long. I guess he hasn't slept much at all now."
Lao Lu hurriedly closed the door, took a few steps to catch up with Tan Xuan, stopped Tan Xuan in his tracks, and asked, "You have something to do with Zhengyang? How about I go up first and call him for you."
"No, I'll call him myself."
Tan Xuan pushed Lao Lu away again and walked up the stairs.
Lao Lu's footsteps were very fast, and he arrived outside Lu Zhengyang's room one step ahead of Tan Xuan. While knocking on the door, he shouted loudly: "Zhengyang, are you asleep? Get up quickly, your brother Xuan is here to see you."
After Lao Lu knocked on the door for a long time, a very impatient reply finally came from the room, "I know, stop knocking, I'll get up right away."
"It's just Zhengyang when you get up, you sit down first." Lao Lu pointed at the sofa and Tan Xuan and said.
"What's the matter with you looking for Zhengyang so early?" Lao Lu asked, sitting next to Tan Xuan.
Tan Xuan smiled at Lao Lu, "Is it early? If I say that I have been waiting downstairs for more than an hour, would you believe it?"
"Haha..." Lao Lu Gan laughed twice and continued to ask: "Why do you want to see Zhengyang? If you have anything to do, you can just call me. Why go all the way?"
"Some things can't be explained clearly over the phone, so it's better to explain them in person."
"Then can you talk to me first?"
Tan Xuan shook his head, "Let's wait until Zhengyang comes out."
"Uh..." Lao Lu was a little embarrassed. Tan Xuan's attitude today made him feel very uneasy.
"I'll boil water to make tea. You sit down for a while."
Lao Lu entered the kitchen, while Tan Xuan sat there motionless, thinking deeply.
After a while, the door to Lu Zhengyang's room opened, and Lu Zhengyang came out, greeting Tan Xuan listlessly, "Brother Xuan, you are here."
Tan Xuan nodded and asked, "Did you sleep well last night?"
Lu Zhengyang sat on the sofa next to Tan Xuan, yawned and said, "What's good? I played games all night, and I just fell asleep, and here you are."
"I guess you can't sleep too well. I didn't sleep all night last night either."
Lu Zhengyang nodded, "It's normal. There were a lot of people who couldn't sleep last night, especially young people. When there is a festival, they find an excuse to have a party. If you don't accompany your sister-in-law to have a good time, what are you doing with me? I'm disturbing people.
Dreams are annoying."
Tan Xuan sneered and shook his head, saying: "It's wrong to disturb people's dreams, and it's even more wrong to disturb people's tranquility. I also want to have fun with my lover and friends, but unfortunately there are always troublemakers. Have a good Christmas Eve, and I can't
I spent half the night with the person I liked, but spent half the night with a bunch of ghosts."
Tan Xuan suddenly suppressed his smile, looked at Lu Zhengyang and asked, "Why did you do that?"
"Brother Xuan, what do you mean?" Lu Zhengyang sat up straight and looked at Tan Xuan with a puzzled expression.
"You really don't know what it means?" Tan Xuan sneered again, then took out the alarm clock he got from the morgue last night from his pocket and put it on the coffee table.
"I found this thing from the scene last night. Do you recognize it?" Tan Xuan asked, staring into Lu Zhengyang's eyes.
"ah!"
"Wow!"
When Lao Lu came out of the kitchen, the teacup in his hand suddenly fell to the ground. Lao Lu did not clean up the broken teacup on the ground, but just looked at the alarm clock on the coffee table with a stunned expression.
Lu Zhengyang's expression changed and he shouted to Lao Lu: "Dad, what are you doing? Go down quickly and see if anyone is buying anything."
Lao Lu didn't seem to hear his son's voice. He looked straight at the alarm clock on the coffee table. Then he walked to Tan Xuan in a few steps and begged: "Xiao Tan, please listen to my explanation. This and Zheng
It doesn't matter if it's yang, I put it outside."
Lu Zhengyang was unhappy and pulled Lao Lu aside, "Dad, what are you talking about? He just asked us if we knew him when he brought something, so why did you leave it outside? Don't get involved in everything.
This is none of your business."
Turning his head, Lu Zhengyang said to Tan Xuan again: "Brother Xuan, I have never seen this thing before. Where did you pick it up?"
"Really?" Tan Xuan looked at Lu Zhengyang and asked with a sneer: "Are you sure you have never seen this thing? Then do you know what fingerprint extraction and footprint extraction are? You should know that my girlfriend's house does it
Whatnot, checking these is completely child’s play for them.”
"Brother Tan, don't ask Zhengyang. I put this thing there and he doesn't even know." Lao Lu picked up the alarm clock on the coffee table and wiped it.
Tan Xuan did not stop Lao Lu's movement, but just asked with a smile: "Are you sure you put this thing? Then tell me where you put this thing?"
"I, I put it..."
Lao Lu was stunned by Tan Xuan's question and couldn't answer.
Tan Xuan sighed and took the alarm clock from Lao Lu's hand, "Don't wipe it. There are some things that you can't wipe clean."
With that said, Tan Xuan looked at Lu Zhengyang again and said, "Zhengyang, you are not young anymore. Do you plan to let your father carry this for you?"
"Xiaotan, this is really me..."
"Dad, please stop talking." Lu Zhengyang interrupted Lao Lu, looked directly into Tan Xuan's eyes and said: "A good man does what a good man does. I put this one in the abandoned morgue behind the hospital. It has nothing to do with my dad.
, you don’t have to embarrass my dad."
"Zhengyang! Hey..."
Lao Lu collapsed directly on the ground, bursting into tears for a moment. There were some things that he couldn't stop just by trying to stop them. At this time, he was determined to bear all this, but there was nothing he could do.
"You were the one who jumped over the wall and ran away from the neighborhood last time, right?" Tan Xuan continued to ask Lu Zhengyang. As for Lao Lu's reaction, Tan Xuan was not surprised.
"You really recognized me, then why didn't you catch me directly last time? With your ability, I shouldn't be able to escape." Lu Zhengyang did not deny it, but asked Tan Xuan a question. Once he accepted the reality
, but he became calmer, at least no longer dodging Tan Xuan's eyes.
Tan Xuan chuckled and said, "It's just because I recognized you that I let you escape. I thought that this time could give you a warning."
"Then how did you recognize me? I was disguised very well. Was it because I screamed when you hit me?" Lu Zhengyang didn't listen to Tan Xuan's complaint and continued to ask.
Tan Xuan nodded, "Yes, when I came to your house last time I was in a hurry and bumped into you. You also screamed at that time, just like that day. But this is just one of them. After all, I can't stand it just by that sound.
I can’t completely tell that that person is you.”
"What about the second one?"
"Secondly, you don't know that my eyesight is very good. After all, I often deal with ghosts and ghosts. I have become accustomed to dimly lit environments. In other words, I can see more clearly when the sun is dim than when the sun is dazzling.
.Although you were wrapped very tightly at the time, your eyes betrayed you. I saw your panic eyes at that time, so I recognized you immediately."
"So that's it, I knew you recognized me." Lu Zhengyang rubbed his head and lowered his head again.
"Since you know that I recognized you, why did you comment on Xiao Di's video online after being silent for a while? In her video, she only expressed her views on the case and did not mention that there was any artificial intelligence behind the scenes.
Manipulation, does it pose a threat to you?" Tan Xuan continued to ask, his voice was not loud, and there was no emotion mixed in it.
Lu Zhengyang smiled bitterly and said: "Isn't this all caused by people's hearts? I began to think that you recognized me, so I was so frightened that I didn't dare to go out for a few days. But I didn't wait until you came to ask questions. I
I thought you didn’t notice me. After all, everyone knows your hateful character. I thought you might not know that person was me, so I tested it online to see how you react.”
"It seems that I did not pursue you immediately, but instead indulged you even more. Were the traps in the morgue in the hospital all set by you to deal with me?" Tan Xuan asked Lu Zhengyang again, but this time his tone suddenly increased.
Some.
"No, it's not." Lu Zhengyang shook his head vigorously, "I didn't set those traps to deal with you, but someone recently investigated this matter very fiercely, so I deliberately gathered a group of lonely ghosts in the morgue.
I plan to make that person suffer."
"Taste the pain." Tan Xuan snorted coldly, and anger finally appeared on his face, "Does your so-called pain mean that you want his life? When did you become so cruel and ruthless?"
"I didn't. I just wanted to teach him a lesson and make him quit. I didn't want to harm anyone."
"You fart." Tan Xuan picked up the alarm clock and threw it to the ground. "If I hadn't taken action last night, that person would have been eaten by those ghosts you raised, and not even his soul would be left."
"I really didn't mean to harm him, I..."
Lu Zhengyang stopped explaining. If the explanation is not believed, it is no different from nonsense.
The room was quiet, and the three people had different expressions. One looked around angrily, one lowered his head and said nothing, and the other sighed. They stopped talking and could only hear each other's heavy breathing.
After a while, Tan Xuan suppressed the anger in his heart and continued to ask: "Why do you want to avenge those wronged souls and resentful ghosts? What is your purpose in doing this?"
Lu Zhengyang frowned and said nothing. No one listened to his explanation just now, and now he was too lazy to answer. However, Lu Zhengyang did not speak, but Lao Lu, who was sitting on the ground, became anxious, stood up and slapped Lu Zhengyang in the face.
"Snapped!"
The sound was very loud, and it was crisper than the sound of the teacup falling to the ground just now.
"Dad, you hit me?"
Lu Zhengyang was stunned. He looked at Lao Lu who was already crying in front of him with tears in his eyes, and shouted loudly: "Why are you hitting me?"
"What are you doing? I wish I could beat you to death, you bastard." Old Lu said with tears streaming down his face. He raised his hand again and looked at his son, but he couldn't put his hand down.
Tan Xuan sighed at the side and said helplessly: "Put your hand down. If you want to hit me, hit me. Isn't it tiring for you to hold it up like this? I feel tired just looking at it."
"Tan Xuan asked you, you should just say that he has given you two chances, don't you know how to seize this last chance?" Lao Lu said to Lu Zhengyang angrily.
"Opportunity, do you think Brother Xuan is giving me a chance?" Lu Zhengyang looked at Lao Lu and then at Tan Xuan, with a look of disbelief.
"If he is here to ask questions, can he wait downstairs for such a long time? Can he talk to you here for a long time? Why don't you hurry up and say it?"
"Really?" Lu Zhengyang looked at Tan Xuan and asked.
Tan Xuan did not answer, but responded to Lu Zhengyang's question in the same way as Lu Zhengyang just did.
