Nightmare Attack

"Did you call the police?" Jiang Cheng asked.

The driver nodded, "Yes, I called his wife, but he didn't come home, and his family doesn't know where he went."

The fat man licked his lips and couldn't help but hold his arms tightly with both hands. The story told by the driver gave him a very bad experience.

He suddenly felt a chill, and even the sunlight shining on him through the car window seemed to have lost its temperature.

"Because of this matter, I stayed at the police station until dawn that day before going home. When I got home, I was still in fear until...until noon the next day..."

The driver seemed to have thought of something, his voice couldn't help but tremble, his face changed, and his lips took on a strange dark blue color.

"Don't be nervous," Jiang Cheng said in a calm tone, "It's all over."

He paused, then continued after a while, "Speak slowly."

Next, the fat man discovered that the doctor's words really had an effect. The originally nervous driver actually stabilized, and his fearful appearance was relieved.

"The next day there was news from the police station, saying that they had obtained the surveillance camera from a nearby dumpling restaurant. According to the surveillance camera, after the car came to a stop, it never moved again, and no one opened the door and got out of the car. He...he disappeared in the car!"

"At that time, the driver's seat was folded down, and there was a leather jacket covering it. It was like... like a person was sleeping with the jacket on, and then suddenly disappeared!"

In the last sentence, the driver did not suppress his emotions, or maybe he was too excited and couldn't suppress it. In short, the impact of this sentence is obvious.

Goosebumps have begun to appear on the fat man's body.

A cold feeling gradually enveloped him, and he suddenly had a feeling that he didn't know whether it was intuition or an illusion, as if there was an invisible net binding him, and... it was constantly tightening.

That weird and unfounded feeling even made him faintly suffocated.

“Ahead,” Jiang Cheng suddenly said, “Just park there, we’ll get off the bus there.”

"Get off the car?" The driver looked left and right, then looked at the location marked on the mobile phone navigation in confusion, and said: "Brother, we are still a long way from our destination. There are no villages or shops around here. You guys?" it's here......"

"It's a rare trip to the countryside. I want to get out of the car and take a walk." Jiang Cheng replied.

It could be seen that the driver was quite complaining about the two getting off the bus here. He didn't meet anyone or a car along the way, and the location was so remote that there was no chance of attracting another group of customers.

I'm afraid I'll have to go back to the city empty-handed.

But fortunately, the money paid by the customer was quite generous, so the driver's ugly face turned slightly.

Before getting off the car, Jiang Cheng suddenly turned around and asked, "What's the name of your missing friend?"

The driver lowered his head and counted the money paid by the fat man several times before reluctantly answering: "Qin Dongguo."

After closing the door, the taxi drove away quickly, leaving only Jiang Cheng who watched the car leave, and a fat man with big eyes and small eyes.

"Doctor," the fat man looked around and asked, "Where is this? Are we not going to..."

"No." Jiang Cheng looked away.

He took out his cell phone from his pocket and after waiting for a while, he sent a message. Since leaving the taxi, the chill in the fat man's body had subsided a lot, and the sun was shining on his body, making him feel warm.

Inside and outside the car, it’s like two seasons.

As if he thought of something, the fat man stared at the doctor and folded his arms. After a long while, he hesitated and said: "Doctor," he whispered, "that driver just now was so weird."

He had become accustomed to the doctor's silent attitude, so he looked at the direction in which the taxi disappeared and continued: "He must have known too much about the disappearance of his friend, and he also said that there was a message from the police station the next day. information......"

He licked his lips, raised his head and asked doubtfully: "This kind of thing is kept secret until the truth comes out, right? Besides, he is just an ordinary person. Is it really necessary for the police to inform him?"

Putting down the phone, Jiang Cheng raised his head and looked at the fat man. What was in his eyes made the fat man feel slightly uncomfortable. "Doctor, just say what you want to say." The fat man's throat rolled, "My back hurts when you look at me like that."

"Continue," Jiang Cheng said calmly, "What else is there?"

"No more." Fatty thought for a while, "That driver just felt weird to me, but... I really can't tell what's weird about it."

The fat man scratched his head and said, "Intuition."

"brush--"

An off-road vehicle drove up in the distance, and then sped past the two of them. It raised a cloud of dust unceremoniously, and the fat man quickly covered his nose and mouth.

Slowly, this long-dead road began to become lively. More and more cars began to pass by, and there were even some motorcycles. Behind them were vegetables and various small commodities almost as tall as a person, tied with ropes. Several laps.

When passing in front of them, the engine made an overwhelming roar, and the driver's helmet visor was also wrapped in a gauze scarf.

I think he was a merchant who returned from carrying goods to the city to sell in the early morning.

After a few seconds, the fat man seemed to realize something, and his pupils suddenly narrowed.

Seeing people starting to pass by, Jiang Cheng took a long breath and said slowly in a fat man's unpredictable voice: "It's getting lively again..."

A gloomy and uncertain emotion flashed in Fatty's eyes, and he finally caught the source of that strange feeling, or rather, smelled it.

It's a nightmare.

It smells like a nightmare!

The weird feeling that permeated the driver was like being in a nightmare, facing those moody, insidious NPCs.

And there are... ghosts hidden within.

But...how could it be?

Isn't this the real world?

And...and they had just come out of the doctor's consulting room, the sun was still hanging in the sky, the sun...the sun was also there, and they didn't fall asleep.

He raised his head, the dazzling light almost made him unable to open his eyes, the wind blew by his ears, and everything around him couldn't be more real.

What happened to all this...?

Too much messy information was entangled in his mind. He had a feeling that he had grasped the key somewhere, but the next second, that feeling suddenly dissipated.

It was like catching a cloud of fog.

After an unknown amount of time, the fat man's thoughts were interrupted by a low-pitched but very clear message prompt. He turned his head and looked at the doctor with a questioning gaze.

Picking up the phone, Jiang Cheng received a WeChat voice message.

"Dr. Jiang," Pi Ruan's voice was still full of energy, "I asked a friend to check the license plate number you sent. It was a rental car. The driver disappeared three days ago. The case has not been solved yet. The car is still there. The police department’s trace inspection team is holding it.”

"By the way," Pi Ruan seemed to have remembered something and said cheerfully, "I sent you the driver's information."

After clicking on it, there was a series of information. The driver's name was Qin Dongguo, a native of Rongcheng. As if he was searching for something, Jiang Cheng flipped the screen and the information kept scrolling.

Until...a picture appeared on the screen.

Jiang Cheng paused with his fingers in mid-air.

The moment he got closer and saw the photo clearly, the fat man's expression began to look strange, and the next second, there was a "buzz" in his mind.
