Chapter 290 Night Watchman, Female Ghost Under Collapsed Bridge Pier
The matter of the swimming pool ghost was over, and Meng Fuling sat in the car and prepared to return to the police station.
Unexpectedly, Officer Yao called and the person on the other end of the line said anxiously when I answered the phone.
"Xiao Meng, where are you?"
"I'm just about to go back to the police station!" Before Meng Fuling could finish her words, Officer Yao immediately stopped her: "Don't go back yet."
"Come to my place first. I'm afraid you're the only one who can handle this situation."
What kind of trouble did Officer Yao encounter that he insisted on asking her to rush over?
The call was not very clear, and then a location was sent to Meng Fuling.
The car slowly headed towards the suburbs, getting farther and farther away from the city.
The road was bumpy and became remote. Where on earth was this place?
Finally, the car arrived at the hiding place. Along the way, we saw a river, and in front of us was what looked like a construction site.
Officer Yao came running over after getting out of the car: "Xiao Meng, you're here!"
"Officer Yao, is there something important that called me here?"
"Come with me!" He took Meng Fuling and went straight to the construction site.
It was broad daylight, but all the workers on the construction site were not working and were standing by.
Various large-scale construction machines were also stopped, and the scene looked like a work stoppage.
Officer Yao took him to a shack in an empty lot, where an old man was lying on a bed.
The old man looked to be in his seventies, with gray hair and closed eyes.
"This old man is called Sun Yonghui. He is the caretaker of this construction site. He suddenly fell into a coma this morning."
Normally, if someone is unconscious, you should call a doctor, but why do you just let him lie here?
Meng Fuling frowned and looked at the old man, then shook her head: "He's not unconscious!"
"What?" Officer Yao looked at her in confusion. "If it's not a coma, what is it?"
She walked up to the old man and put her hand on his forehead.
A burning sensation came over him, and the old man, who had had his eyes closed just now, suddenly jumped up from the bed.
He cried out, touching his forehead and yelling, "Ouch! I'm so hot!"
Everyone was stunned, even Officer Yao looked shocked.
"He's pretending." Meng Fuling directly exposed the truth, causing an uproar in the audience.
[Fuck, why is he pretending to faint for no reason? Is this old man trying to scam me?]
[Why did you pretend to be unconscious for no reason? You even fooled my Officer Yao.]
[Old people have become bad these days. No, it should be said that bad people have become old.]
[This is really a convincing act. As soon as the eyes are closed, it means death. Even I didn't notice it.]
[What are you doing with this? Are you trying to claim it's a work injury? Fainting on a construction site is naturally considered a work injury.]
Fans in the live broadcast room were all complaining, after all, Meng Fuling had seen through his pretense of fainting.
"Uncle Sun, what on earth are you trying to do?" Officer Yao's face darkened. "Pretending to faint is a false alarm."
"Oh!" Grandpa Sun suddenly sat down on the ground: "Why did you wake me up?"
He actually started to complain first and put all the blame on them.
"Dad, Dad!" At this time, a Mercedes-Benz was driving quickly outside, and a middle-aged man in a suit got out of the car.
He hurried in and looked at Old Man Sun sitting on the ground: "Dad, what's wrong with you?"
The person who came was none other than Sun Yuewei, the contractor of this construction site.
He was the one who contracted this construction site. As soon as he received the call saying that his father had fainted, he immediately drove for several hours to rush back.
"What are you doing? What did my dad do to make him fall to the ground?"
He angrily scolded Officer Yao and Meng Fuling in a fierce manner when he saw the tall Officer Yao wearing a uniform.
His attitude immediately softened: "So it's a police officer. What happened to my dad?"
At this time, the employees who had stopped working outside also gathered around. Bao Gongtou stepped forward and said, "Mr. Sun, I saw Mr. Sun lying in bed with his eyes closed and thought he had passed out, so I called the police."
Grandpa Sun's expression was dazed, his face full of fear: "Ghost, I, I saw a ghost!"
"What ghost?" Sun Yuewei was confused: "Dad, there is no ghost!"
"There is a female ghost on that bridge pile. She, she is haunting me!" Grandpa Sun trembled with fear when he thought of this.
"If I don't pretend to be asleep, she'll keep pestering me and try to kill me!"
His face was pale, and he seemed to be terrified to the extreme.
"Dad, there's no ghost. Please don't scare yourself here, okay?"
Sun Yuewei sighed helplessly and apologized to Officer Yao: "I'm sorry, officer comrade."
"My father is old and his mind must be confused. He can't stay idle at home and insists on coming to work at my construction site."
"I had no choice but to assign him a nighttime job watching the scene. Who knew something like this would happen just a few days after he arrived?"
"I'll take him home right now and won't cause you any trouble."
Officer Yao thought something strange had happened and called Meng Fuling over anxiously.
The result was that the old man was suspicious and said: "Okay, then I will leave."
"No!" Grandpa Sun said when he heard they were leaving: "I'm not senile, I really saw a ghost."
As he spoke, he pointed to several bridge piers built on the river not far away and said, "That female ghost, she is on those piers every night."
His hands were shaking. "That female ghost is always haunting me. If I don't pretend to be asleep, she won't leave."
Everyone looked at the bridge pier on the river with confusion, but there was nothing there except a large collapsed part.
"We discovered the damage to the bridge pier this morning," the foreman echoed. "That's why we urgently stopped work."
Hearing these words, Sun Yuewei couldn't help but get angry: "What nonsense! There are no ghosts in this world."
"My dad's eyesight is blurry and you're messing around with him. Stop talking nonsense and get to work!"
"No, we can't start!" Grandpa Sun tried to stop him: "You bastard, there really is something fishy on that bridge pier."
Meng Fuling had been looking at the bridge pier from the beginning: "Grandpa is right, there is indeed a ghost."
There is a rushing stream under the bridge piers. Seven piers were built to build a bridge in the village.
A faint black aura of death could be seen under the middle pier, which was exactly where the collapse occurred.
Everyone looked shocked, including the fans in the live broadcast room who were staring at the screen.
[How could there be a ghost? Why didn't I see any? But if my master says there is one, then it must be there. I'll pretend I can see it for now.]
[So this old man isn't here to scam people, maybe he really saw something unclean.]
[The father came to his son's construction site to work as a night watchman. He is indeed an old man who can't sit still at home, just like my father.]
[This old man must have been frightened and started pretending to sleep to avoid the evil spirit. As expected, everyone is called someone who doesn't want to pretend to sleep.]
But I just want to know, what the hell is going on with this bridge pier collapse? Is it shoddy construction?
Meng Fuling shook her head: "The collapsed bridge piers were caused by dead air. It's the ghosts warning you!"
"If you don't stop working, the consequences will be disastrous..."
Everyone was shocked when they heard her words and looked at each other.
"Hahaha!" At this time, Sun Yuewei laughed sarcastically: "Where did you come from, you charlatan? What nonsense are you talking about?"
"There's no ghost here. If you keep talking nonsense, don't blame me for being rude!"
"Shut up!" Officer Yao scolded him on the spot: "Master Meng is an employee of our police station's special department."
Sun Yuewei was stunned for a moment: "What? This little girl is a police officer?"
He had never seen such a thing in his life. It was the first time in his life that a charlatan could become a policeman.
But he still didn't believe it, muttering, "Humph! Only a fool would believe her."
"Splash!" Before he finished speaking, a loud noise was heard from the embankment.
The bridge pier collapsed again, and this time the two adjacent piers shattered and fell into the river at the same time.
Everyone opened their eyes wide in shock. They never expected that their words would come true.
