Chapter 328 Ideas
The theory of ghosts and gods has existed since ancient times.
But the reality is that few people have truly seen the so-called ghosts and gods with their own eyes, and even people have had fierce debates about the existence of ghosts and gods, but the result is naturally incomplete. Believing or not is entirely up to the individual, and it is difficult for anyone to change the other party’s ideas.
Chen An’s theory of ghosts and gods is like many people. Seeing is one thing, not seeing is another thing. The problem now is... he seems to have really seen a ghost.
Are ghosts scary? In most strange and strange ambitions that describe ghosts, ghosts have almost become the incarnation of terror. Under this subtle influence, people will subconsciously feel fear when they talk about ghosts. Chen An, an ordinary person, is no exception, especially after he has actually seen ghosts.
"Chen An, today I see why you are reluctant to stay at work. What happened?"
During lunch, his colleague Song Gang sat opposite Chen An with a meal. Without taking a few bites, he looked at Chen An, who was absent-minded in eating and said strangely.
"Old Song, do you believe there are ghosts in the world?"
Chen An, who had no appetite, simply put down the bowls and chopsticks and said to Song Gang with a serious face.
"What? Are you hitting a ghost?" Song Gang smiled, not taking Chen An's words in his heart at all, just treating them as his joke.
"That's right. Yesterday I met an aunt from the Community Management Council for a while and then I heard that someone nearby met a child who died more than ten years ago in the middle of the night. Do you think it's scary?"
Instead of saying the hell about his own devils, Chen An chose to replace him, just like many people talking about topics that are ashamed to speak, they always apply my friends, my classmates, etc. to avoid causing unnecessary trouble for themselves.
"Don't think about it, that person must have read it wrong." Song Gang said with confidence. "What kind of ghosts are there this year? They are all frightened by themselves. In the past, there were special columns in newspapers that specifically exposed strange stories and strange ambitions. It seemed to be called "Going to Science". Once someone said he was a ghost, but he ended up treating the white sheets that others secretly hung at night as a ghost."
"I also think that person misread it, but some places really don't make sense!" Chen An pondered for a moment. "That person has just moved to our community recently, but according to his description of the ghost, it is completely in line with the way the child died back then. How should this be explained?"
"Huh? That's interesting. Did you think that the man did it on purpose?" Song Gang was stunned for a moment. "For example, that man had learned about the child's death in advance, and then made up such a sensational lie and scared it out?"
"If it was made up by him, what was his intention? Is it just to scare people?" Chen An frowned.
"For example, if your community is about to be demolished, but considering that many people don't want to move away, then the open merchants will send people to fabricate such ghost lies, which will inevitably make the entire community panic. In the end, the demolition will definitely be twice the result with half the effort." Song Gang raised his eyebrows and said. "If you really want to know about this, I advise you to carefully investigate the identity and background of the ghost person, family and work status, neighborhood relationships, etc. A slight clue can make you find out the other party's intention to fabricate lies."
“…What if he was really hell?”
Based on professional habits and normal people's ideas, Song Gang's arguments are indeed reasonable. For a moment, Chen An didn't know how to answer, and in the end he had to force the topic to the beginning.
"Then his family should take him to see the doctor." Song Gang shrugged, obviously not believing that the other party was really damn. It can even be said that he didn't believe that there were ghosts in the world at all.
Since they have seriously different ideas and will not have any results if they continue to talk, Chen An simply changed the topic and stopped chatting about it.
As a consulting and investigator, Chen An, as a new employee, often follows his colleagues to conduct in-depth visits and surveys on the companies entrusted by the customer. Sometimes it is inevitable to travel on a business trip. In the afternoon, the leader above asked Chen An and the others to go on a business trip to Qinzhou due to a job entrusted. It took about three days of field research and would gather together early tomorrow morning.
Chen An doesn't like business trips, or no one likes business trips, but no one can refuse business trips for the sake of life.
But this time, Chen An was not as reluctant to go on a business trip as before, so the reason was naturally needless to say.
"Are you going on a business trip tomorrow?"
After Xia Qin came home from get off work, she saw Chen An tidying her luggage. With her understanding of Chen An, she instantly understood what was going on.
"Yes, I'll be on a business trip to Qinzhou and I'll be back for about three days." Chen An silently folded the changing clothes into his suitcase.
"Qinzhou, I remember that the red dragon fruit in Qinzhou is delicious, but unfortunately it's winter now." Xia Qin shook her head and sighed. After taking off her clothes and hanging it on the hanger, she lay on the small sofa. She tilted her head and looked at Chen An in the bedroom from the corner of her eyes, feeling a little depressed and depressed.
"What's wrong? He looked unhappy?" Chen An walked out of the bedroom after tidying up his luggage. When he saw Xia Qin's appearance, he immediately sat next to her and habitually pinched her little nose.
"Ask a question knowingly." Xia Qin slapped Chen An's claws, turned her head and hummed softly.
"It's not the first time I'm on a business trip, let alone only three days, and it's gone in the blink of an eye." Chen An comforted her arms over Xia Qin's shoulder.
"Of course I know, but I just can't bear to part with you. I feel uneasy when I can't see you when I go home every day." Xia Qin bit her lip and leaned against Chen An's arms.
"Actually, I am the one who is most worried about you every time I go on a business trip. I am very afraid that it will be unsafe for you to stay at home alone at night." Chen An whispered.
"Don't worry, the community security is very good, let alone dealing with ordinary little thieves, my sister can lie down in minutes!" Xia Qin waved her show fist and pretended to be fierce. "On the contrary, you made me worry and be afraid. It is said that the people in Qinzhou are tough. If you pass by, don't have any conflicts with the locals."
"You don't know my character. I am not the kind of person who will cause trouble for myself." Chen An said helplessly.
"Sometimes you don't cause trouble, but trouble will come to provoke you!" Xia Qin said quickly and spitted a few words. "I'm a crow's mouth, why don't you talk about these unlucky things? Chen An, tell me a serious matter. The New Year is coming soon. Will we go home for the New Year this year?"
"What are your thoughts?" Chen An asked back without answering.
"I want to go home, I miss my parents." Xia Qin whispered.
"Then go back." Chen An nodded immediately. "I just don't know when the company will take the annual holiday. If it's too late, it's not easy to buy tickets."
"Leave this to me." Xia Qin patted her chest.
"So confident?" Chen An said with a smile.
"Nonsense, after all, my intern reporters in the past six months have not been in vain. At least I have made friends with many people. If you buy tickets, please ask them to buy tickets. You will definitely be able to buy tickets through the back door!" Xia Qin said with a proud look.
"It's getting late, let's go to bed and rest!"
From beginning to end, Chen An did not confess to Xia Qin about the hell.
It's strange that he has never seen the little boy since he saw the last time he saw him. When he came home from get off work at night, he even walked around for a while, afraid that there must be some, but he wanted to figure out one thing, can he really see a ghost? Or is it purely an accident to see a ghost?
Qinzhou is located in a city surrounded by mountains west of Dongshan County. The local industry is mainly forest and minerals. Due to the barren arable land, most of Qinzhou's grain needs to be imported from other prefectures and counties. Therefore, locals basically engage in mining-related work for their livelihoods, and there is no need to say much about the dangers of the mining industry.
In addition to Song Gang, two other colleagues on business trips with Chen An, who had their own division of labor. After arriving in Qinzhou, they quickly entered the work state with the intention of finishing work and going back early. If it were a prosperous city, they might have spent some time. The problem is that no one would want to stay in a relatively backward place in Qinzhou.
On the morning of the third day, they finished all the investigation work in advance. Chen An originally planned to buy the afternoon ticket to go back to Cangyang, but Song Gang and others said that they had been working hard for a few days, so it would be better to relax today. As a newcomer to the workplace, Chen An could not resist them and could only agree.
There are not many places to play in Qinzhou. Except for a forest park, there are no other features. Let’s put it this way, some in Qinzhou are both Cangyang, while some in Cangyang are not necessarily available in Qinzhou.
After having enough wine and meals in the evening, Song Gang and the others planned to go and have some leisure time. As men, everyone knows the places where they can be free, but Chen An is a traditional and conservative person and will never do anything sorry for Xia Qin, so he directly rejected the other party's invitation and planned to return to the hotel alone to rest first.
There were few pedestrians in the middle of winter. Chen An was going to take a taxi back, but after waiting for a long time, he didn't see a taxi. He simply waited while walking, so he could even scent of alcohol on his body.
As he walked, Chen An suddenly realized that he was gradually unable to see anyone on the road, and there was not even a car driving on the street.
