Chapter 7 Black Cat

There was no sound in the dark corridor except for Xiao Xia's breathing.

Why did you reach the 13th floor? There is no resident here!

She looked back and forth, but no one else was there. Then she tried to move her steps, and only heard her own footsteps clattering and dull echoes echoing in the empty corridor.

She tried to walk slowly, but the footsteps were loudly set off by the silence, which made her wish she could take off her shoes, but she had to turn back to the elevator.

The lights of the elevator flashed, indicating that it was going down, and she had to wait for a while before she could wait. But at this moment, she suddenly felt that something was staring at her!

She subconsciously searched around, and only saw a closed iron door. Each door had a cat glasses, and a little light shining in the darkness, as if someone was peeking at her behind each door! There was also the invisible corner on one side of the corridor, which made her feel something hidden!

Can't wait here and climb the stairs!

She walked towards the stairs in panic. After taking a step, she heard a cat cry suddenly coming from behind.

Because it suddenly came from silence, Xiaoxia was so scared that she almost jumped up and leaned against the wall to look at the source of the sound.

A black cat stood there sideways, turning his head to look at Xiao Xia!

It has a pair of big green eyes, which should be said to be too big, as if it occupied half of the entire cat's face. It looked very empty, and it felt like it was sucking people's souls, and it was shining with a faint green light in the darkness.

Xiao Xia and the cat looked at each other for only a few seconds, and Xiao Xia actually began to be afraid of a kitten!

"Ahem--" The black cat suddenly made a sound, but the cat's face was still facing Xiao Xia.

Xiao Xia only felt that its mouth was squirming, like a person talking, and a smile gradually rippled on the cat's face!

She was frozen there! She never knew that animals would laugh, and in her impression, the kitten always looked angry. But just as she was stunned, the cat suddenly arched at her and rushed towards her!

For a moment, she was frightened silly. Facing the black shadow that was rushing toward her face, she could only instinctively close her eyes and block her face with her hands. But a breeze blew, and when she opened her eyes, she saw that there was nothing in front of her. The black cat disappeared and she didn't know where she ran.

Xiao Xia jumped up like an electric shock, ran from the stairs to the office on the fifteenth floor. After opening the door and entering, she locked the door tightly, fearing that the cat would chase after him.

The black cat acted so weirdly, and it felt like - like a soul-catching messenger from hell!

She thought about this and shivered, and hurried to Guan Zheng's office to check the information, thinking that she would finish the investigation and leave.

And on the corner of the thirteenth floor, a man came out!

It's Guan Zheng!

He sighed in the direction where the black cat disappeared and said, "I tried my best to let you run away!" Then he looked up at the rooftop, "What's she doing here so late?"

He stood there and thought for a minute, then walked up the stairs.

Guan Zheng did not have a password on his computer, so Xiaoxia easily found what she was looking for - it was the case files of the helping firm's branches in various cities.

She clicked on the case information about the dispute between her parents and children, and a set of data was immediately displayed on the computer screen. She was not interested in the content of the case, she just wanted to know the fate of the parties involved.

This was just a thought that suddenly flashed in her mind. She wanted to know if there was a mysterious death like here elsewhere!

Her whole heart was concentrated on the computer, and she didn't notice that the office door opened and walked in alone.

"What are you doing?" A man's voice was above Xiao Xia's head, scaring her toppled the water cup on the table and smashed it to the ground with a "slap".

"Guan-Guan Zheng, why are you here?" Xiaoxia asked in surprise.

Since only a desk lamp was turned on in the entire office, in the dark sky, the light shone from bottom to top to Guan Zheng's face, making him look a little hideous.

"I should ask you this sentence." Guan Zheng was more harsh than usual, a little angry, "What are you looking for when you turn on my computer?"

His appearance made Xiaoxia a little scared, and his questions made Xiaoxia unable to answer.

"Say, why?" Guan Zheng increased his voice, looking very angry.

But his righteous aura made Xiaoxia feel some courage, "I'm looking at the case files of each branch, only you have these. If you blame me for opening your computer privately, I have nothing to say. Sorry, I have no complaints about how you handle this."

"What I asked is, why do you look up those things?"

"I-" Xiao Xia stammered and didn't dare to continue talking.

If Guan Zheng was really a trickster, he might kill someone to silence him. He was very thin, but he was a man after all, and she had little chance of winning. Besides, he now seemed different from usual, and his eyes were very fierce.

"Do you think the deaths of Wang Hua and Zhang are strange, right? Are you checking if there are any similar things happening in other branches?" Guan Zheng said for her, "As a result, you found that there were cases of sudden deaths in other places, plus two in this city, a total of thirteen, and all of them were caused by the fact that the children did not support their parents! You think that there must be problems with this firm, and such many coincidences do not exist!"

"Tell me this is a coincidence?" Xiao Xia asked with a blank face.

This time it was Guan Zheng's turn to speak.

Xiaoxia stood up from behind the desk and rubbed to the side, "Then I'll leave first."

She said as she walked over Guan Zheng, but Guan Zheng grabbed his arm, "I forgot what happened tonight, it has nothing to do with you. You just need to do your duty! This is your duty!"

He grabbed Xiao Xia very hard, and hurt Xiao Xia. In addition to his tone when he spoke, Xiao Xia's anger aroused, "What is my duty? What is the responsibility of a lawyer? It is to protect the interests of the parties. Given the lawsuit we fought, I think that reconciliation between parents and children is the greatest interest of the parties. Even if it doesn't work, there is no need to kill them! Let them fulfill their obligations. But their death will only make their parents more painful. You and your funds are of no use! Have you ever thought about this? When you use the law or something else to achieve what you call justice, have you ever thought about the inner pain of those poor old people? Your ideal of upholding justice is satisfied, so what should you do if you really need to be satisfied? But if they are still alive, all this is at least possible to remedy!"

"Do you think I killed it?"

Xiao Xia didn't say anything, just struggled hard, but she didn't break free at all. She didn't think it was Guan Zheng's automatic hand. At least the bizarre deaths in other places had nothing to do with him, because he had never traveled far away these days. The problem is that he is the general manager of this aid agency, and it is impossible for him to know any clues!

"I hope I can!" Guan Zheng suddenly said, "They deserve all their sins! Although there is no crime of shooting in law, they have forgotten their parents' kindness and abused their parents all deserve to die!"

"But it was their parents who were punished!" Xiao Xia rushed out and struggled hard again.

She used too much force, and Guan Zheng let go of his hand for some reason, so she suddenly fell out heavily and just hit the door of the information cabinet.

The door is not very tight usually, so it opens as soon as it hits, and a ball of stuff falls out of it.

Xiao Xia looked closely and was so shocked that she retreated backwards and almost vomited!

It was a transparent plastic bag with a ball of furry and bloody stuff inside. The skin and flesh had been peeled off, the belly was cut open, a few white ribs stood there, and four small claws were chopped off!

It is a little black cat! After being killed, the half-dismembered little black cat!

Xiao Xia stared at Guan Zheng in surprise.

Does he still kill cats? Under his calm and normal appearance, does he have a perverted heart? What kind of person is he? Are those murders related to him? Is the black cat on the 13th floor just now escaped from him?

Guan Zheng saw that the things he had hidden were exposed, and he was also startled. Instinctively, he began to defend himself, "I'm not - I'm going to experiment, I just want to - you don't understand!"

Xiao Xia ignored him, stood up and ran away, but was caught by him!

"Let me go, you let me go, I'm going to call someone!" She shouted while struggling hard, which was particularly terrifying in this quiet environment!

Guan Zheng covered her mouth suddenly, "Don't call me, listen to me! Don't worry about the matter here, don't get involved!"

"Why did you want to kill a kitten?" Xiao Xia couldn't help asking after Guan Zheng let go of her mouth.

Guan Zheng let her go and suddenly smiled bitterly, "Have you heard of curiosity killing a cat?"

"Who cares about you!" Xiao Xia shouted, turned around and ran out.

She didn't dare to wait for the elevator, and kept running from the stairs, not daring to look behind her, nor dared to stop, until she ran home and locked all the doors and windows, and then she fell on the sofa!

Guan Zheng is a weird guy! He must have a secret!

"Xiaoxia, Xiaoxia, wake up!" A man called her in the dark, and then pushed her, causing her to almost fall off the bed.

When I opened my eyes, it was still midnight.

Let the nightmare stay again!

This was Xiaoxia's first self-awareness. She woke up slightly, then turned over and went to sleep. She was very sleepy and was shocked at the office at night, which made her think for a long time. She decided to talk to Guan Zheng in public tomorrow, at least with the presence of other people in the office.

If he has psychological problems, she will introduce him to see a psychiatrist, or it is because of his stress. If he really commits a crime, she will persuade him to surrender.

In fact, she was still confused about the whole thing and didn't know what specific content. She only knew that there were secrets behind these abnormal deaths, and these secrets must be related to Guan Zheng.

She thought hard for a long time before she went to bed. Unexpectedly, she finally fell asleep and started dreaming again.

She often dreams of someone pushing her and shaking her bed, and she gets used to it, and doesn't think much about it. But when she enters a dream state again, the man starts calling her again.

"Xiaoxia, Xiaoxia-" he dragged his voice, "Find out this secret!"

Xiao Xia woke up in an instant, but this time she woke up completely and felt a strange feeling in her heart - there was someone else in this room!

The fear immediately grabbed her heart like a cat's paw!

She grabbed the amulet on her chest. It was what Ruan Zhan spent two months digging on the mountain to help her find it. If it weren't for this, she might have been scared to death now.

Ruan Zhan! Ruan Zhan!

She called his name in her heart and felt a little better.

But the voice of the man who called her name also rang out, "Xiaoxia-Xiaoxia-"

This is not in a dream, there is indeed someone calling her in the dark!

She was isolated and helpless, tightened in the quilt, and did not dare to move!
