What was happening in the room at that moment disgusted and repulsed me; moreover, a sense of terror arose within me.
I saw Deng Xiaohong in the room holding a chicken's head in one hand and a chicken's foot in the other, lifting a large rooster high up, with his beak biting into the rooster's neck.
The rooster could still let out screams and flap its wings, but its head and feet were firmly held by Deng Xiaohong. The rooster couldn't break free at all, and it was only a matter of time before it died.
At this moment, Deng Xiaohong tilted her head back, closed her eyes, and looked on with a look of enjoyment. Her Adam's apple was moving rhythmically. That's right, Deng Xiaohong was sucking the blood of that rooster.
The usually refined and gentle Deng Xiaohong has such a terrifying side; if you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, you wouldn't believe it.
I secretly took out my phone, put it on silent mode, and clicked on the camera. I pointed the camera on the back of my phone at the small hole and recorded a video of Deng Xiaohong drinking chicken blood in the room.
Just then, a sound came from somewhere.
"Who is it?" Deng Xiaohong, who was drinking chicken blood, suddenly opened her blind eyes and shouted.
I was so startled that my hand trembled and I almost dropped my phone. I thought Deng Xiaohong had found me. I was about to run away with my phone when I heard Deng Xiaohong's voice coming from the small room again, "So it's you two little things."
I breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. It seemed that Deng Xiaohong had not noticed me. I then pointed the rear camera of my phone back at the small hole.
Soon the scene in the room appeared on my phone screen. Beside Deng Xiaohong, there were two cats standing there, and they were two cats that I knew very well, the Yinling Cats.
The noise we just heard was caused by those two beasts.
Deng Xiaohong threw the blood-drained rooster on the ground, glanced at the two ghost cats, and said, "Here you go."
The two ghostly cats hurriedly pounced on the rooster and licked the remaining blood off its neck.
Then, I discovered something even more shocking: when Deng Xiaohong's eyes swept across the doorway, I suddenly saw his eyes flashing green on my phone screen.
What's going on? Why are Deng Xiaohong's eyes glowing green?
Wait, something just popped into my head.
When I watched the video of the back door of the courier station, the strange person with An Lili also had green eyes?
Just then, my phone screen suddenly showed a call from Tong Liu. My face changed drastically, and I hurriedly tapped to reject the call. Although I had already put my phone on silent mode, that's just how my old phone is. If someone calls in silent mode, it will still make a loud vibration. Fortunately, I was quick enough to avoid making any noise.
I put my phone away, and just then, Tong Liu called again. I rejected the call again, and before Deng Xiaohong noticed me, I quietly and carefully left the place.
When I arrived at the entrance of the courier station, I breathed a long sigh of relief. Just then, Tong Liu called again. I answered the phone and said irritably, "Tong Liu, why are you rushing me?"
"Changming, why are you taking so long to charge your phone? It's been half an hour already, and the boss has already started serving the barbecue. The Coke will be completely flat by the time you get back to it," Tong Liu urged loudly over the phone.
"Okay, I'll be there in two minutes," I said into the phone and hung up.
On the way, I kept thinking, could the strange person who was with An Lili that night be Deng Xiaohong?
No, that's not right. That strange person looks even shorter than An Lili, which is completely different from Deng Xiaohong. They can't possibly be the same person.
However, even if they are not the same person, they must be related and are very likely the same type of person, because their eyes both emit a green light.
That strange person came to the courier station most likely because of Fang Lei. Now that Deng Xiaohong is working at the courier station, what is her purpose?
Is there some secret about the courier station that I don't know about?
Or perhaps Deng Xiaohong's goal in coming to the courier station was the same as An Lili's—to get me. But what do they want from me?
I always felt that Grandpa hadn't told me some things, or perhaps he was hiding some secrets from me. But Grandpa died a long time ago, and he never mentioned the USB drive he left behind. I don't know who to ask. I have a feeling that everything will be revealed on my birthday in my birth year.
Two or three minutes later, I finally arrived at the barbecue stand.
"Changming, why did it take you so long to charge your phone?" Tong Liu saw me arrive, picked up a string of pig whips, and put it in his mouth to bite.
"That socket had a bad connection, so I took it apart and fixed it." I sat down opposite Tong Liu, not telling him about Deng Xiaohong's matter, and made up an excuse to get by.
"It's getting late, hurry up and eat, then I'll take you home." Tong Liu pushed the barbecue in front of me, then suddenly added, "I'll ride my bike later, do you want some beer?"
"I'm not drinking anymore." I shook my head. At that moment, all I could think of was the horrifying image of Deng Xiaohong eating raw rooster blood.
After Tong Liu and I finished all the barbecue we ordered, he paid the bill and then rode his 125cc motorcycle with me on the back towards Dafeng Village.
"Changming, what happened? You seemed distracted all night," Tong Liu asked as he rode his motorcycle.
"Oh, really?" I replied instinctively.
"Changming, I know I was wrong. I won't get involved in these kinds of things anymore. Please don't be angry, okay?" Tong Liu was silent for a while before suddenly speaking in a serious tone.
I was taken aback when I heard that. I had been thinking about Deng Xiaohong's matter, but I didn't expect that Tong Liu would misunderstand and think that I was angry with him. But it's fine this way. I'm too lazy to explain, and there's no need to explain.
Given Tong Liu's carefree personality, it's fortunate that he encountered an ordinary ghost tonight. If it had been a vengeful ghost, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
So I decided to play along and deliberately put on a stern face, saying, "If you dare to act so recklessly again, I'm not going to take care of you anymore."
"Changming, I know I was wrong. Luckily you arrived in time tonight, otherwise I don't know what that old guy would have done to me," Tong Liu said, still shaken, as he rode his bike.
"It's good that you know you were wrong. In the future, remember to think things through before you do anything. If you really can't figure it out, come and discuss it with me."
I deliberately tilted my head to look angry, but in that instant, I thought I saw a woman in red.
It turned out that they had already arrived at the traffic light intersection, but Tong Liu didn't stop at all and turned directly over.
"Tong Liu, did you see someone wearing red clothes just now?" I looked back but didn't see the woman in red, and asked Tong Liu in a low voice.
