Volume Two, Chapter Fourteen, Familiar Strangers

From the first floor to the top floor, lights were on in every house. A dark shadow appeared in front of the window in the middle of the floor, which seemed very abrupt. After a while, against the backdrop of the lights on different floors at night,

The black shadow quickly fell down from the upstairs, using his body to sweep across every bright window.

Lu Sheng suddenly opened his eyes, his head moved, and his eyes looked around. He was confirming the environment he was in. There was a moving car, and Xiao Zhu was driving in front of him.

It turned out that he just fell asleep in the back seat, and the black shadow he saw was just a dream. Although he was awake, the sweeping black shadow still occupied his consciousness.

The picture was so clear and real that Lu Sheng didn't know if it was a memory of reality or if it was really just a dream.

He touched his still damp top and thought about the strange encounter in the pavilion before going to bed. He also thought about the slowly falling raindrops on the Mid-Autumn Festival and the slowing down of time.

"If the feeling in the pavilion today is real, then do the still rain and those long five minutes also really exist and are they experienced by me personally?"

He couldn't give a reasonable explanation for everything unusual. Who were the two familiar faces just now? And how did he anticipate Xiao Zhu's arrival? What's even more amazing is that even the appearance and behavior habits were the same as in the dream.

Similarly, there is the black shadow that fell rapidly just now. Was it a dream, or was it something I saw with my own eyes?

Although it felt very outrageous, Lu Sheng began to have a hunch at this time, "Should I start paying more attention to the things in my dreams?"

Lu Sheng suddenly had an urgent idea. He wanted to sleep now and look for more clues in his dreams.

Realizing that he had some naive thoughts, Lu Sheng laughed and burst into laughter.

The laughter reached Xiao Zhu's ears, and Xiao Zhu asked hurriedly and concernedly, "Are you awake? How do you feel now?"

Lu Sheng's smile disappeared like a shooting star. He did not answer Xiao Zhu's question, but asked Xiao Zhu another question, "If I said that I had seen you before you came here, would you believe it?"

?”

Listening to Lu Sheng's question, Xiao Zhu felt a little surprised, but still replied seriously, "Then there is no reason to believe it, but the possibility is relatively low, but it is not impossible! Anyway, I have never seen your impression."

"It's not the so-called one-sided relationship, but, like, just like the two of us now."

"Master, I don't quite understand what you mean."

Lu Sheng still didn't respond to Xiao Zhu's words, and continued to ask, "Do you know Xiao Wu?"

"Xiao Wu? Which Xiao Wu? What's his name? What's Wu?"

Xiao Zhu was more and more confused. He didn't know what happened to Lu Sheng tonight, but Xiao Zhu's question just now made Lu Sheng fall into deep thought again.

Lu Sheng began to try hard to remember, yes, Xiao Wu, what is Xiao Wu's name?

After the evening rush hour, the streets in Huangzhou seemed extremely deserted at night. There was no need to worry about traffic jams and one could drive quickly. The speed of the vehicle was strictly controlled by Xiao Zhu within the speed limit.

Through the car window, the night view of Huangzhou moved quickly in front of Lu Sheng's eyes. The closer things were to him, the harder he could see them clearly. On the contrary, the distant scenery seemed to be quietly waiting for him to watch.

In the distance, the most eye-catching building is the Wonderful Building. Its height is obviously much higher than the surrounding buildings, because it suddenly broke into Lu Sheng's sight and interrupted his thoughts.

Thinking that he had not eaten well all day, Lu Sheng said to Xiao Zhu, "Let's go to Handan Road to eat something first, and then go home."

Xiao Zhu drove to the roadside in Handan. Lu Sheng said, "Don't go to the parking lot. It's expensive there. Just park on the roadside. It's cheaper."

I saw them parking the car, and a nearby staff member, a thin man wearing a blue vest, quickly stepped forward to give instructions, and awkwardly helped direct the car to reverse.

Lu Sheng rolled down the window and saw the thin man. He blurted out without thinking, "Why didn't you run away today?"

The thin man looked at Lu Sheng who was speaking in surprise. He didn't know how to reply, but he seemed to feel that he had to answer, so he said in a panic, "You are not the police, why should I run away?"

Only then did Lu Sheng feel that another familiar stranger appeared in front of him.

Xiao Zhu was concentrating on reversing the car and did not hear their conversation clearly. Xiao Zhu got out of the car and said to the thin man, "How much does it cost to park?"

Thinking about what he didn't hear clearly, Xiao Zhu asked again, "What did you just say?"

"I said you are not the police. The parking fee is 5 yuan an hour."

Xiao Zhu listened to the thin man's words and glanced at Lu Sheng, who was standing next to him after getting off the car, and saw him shaking his head gently, indicating that he should eat quickly.

Xiao Zhu didn't know why, but he just wanted to joke with the thin man and gave him a thumbs up, "You are awesome, you are really right."

"Haha, how can there be so many policemen? If there are really so many policemen, there won't be..." The thin man realized that with two strangers, it seemed that there was no need to express his true thoughts, so he quickly changed his words, "That's right.

alright!"

Xiao Zhu was obviously more curious about what the thin man would say if he choked back. Just when he wanted to hold the thin man back and ask him what happened, Lu Sheng quickly pulled him away.

"What did he mean just now?"

Lu Sheng ignored Xiao Zhu and asked another question that made Xiao Zhu unexpected, "Does that thin man just now look familiar?"

"Doesn't look familiar!"

Xiao Zhu felt that Lu Sheng had been asking some weird questions all night, so he finally couldn't help but asked, "Master, what happened to you at night? Why do you always ask me some weird questions."

"Is there any?" Lu Sheng asked knowingly.

"Yes!" Xiao Zhu responded decisively.

"Maybe you're right. I've watched too many surveillance cameras. Everyone looks familiar now."

Xiao Zhu listened to Lu Sheng's words with suspicion. Just as he was about to ask another question, Lu Sheng interrupted him before he opened his mouth, "There is a noodle shop nearby. The fish ball noodles are particularly delicious. Let's go there quickly.

I’ll definitely be back after eating within an hour.”

Xiao Zhu's stomach was already growling, and he didn't want to think about anything else for the time being, so he followed Lu Sheng towards the noodle shop.

Lu Sheng really guessed it right. The fish ball noodles really suited Xiao Zhu's taste. After working hard all day, the master and the apprentice finally had a normal meal.

When Lu Sheng was eating noodles, he no longer had any abnormal feelings, and everything seemed to be back to normal. During the whole meal, he had been discussing relevant information about the case with Xiao Zhu.

After the two of them finished eating, they arrived at the car, but the thin man was nowhere to be seen. A tall man came over. Lu Sheng looked at the familiar tall man in front of her and almost said what she was thinking, "Damn, I knew it would happen."

That’s it.”

Xiao Zhu looked at Lu Sheng's expression and asked curiously, "Why, does this look familiar to you?"

"No, no, I don't know him." Lu Sheng lied.

It was exactly five yuan. After the master and apprentice paid the money, they got in the car and drove towards home.

At this time, a bus was passing by their car, and a person entered Lu Sheng's field of vision. Looking at the people on the bus, he felt his scalp numb and his heart beating rapidly.
