If they knew, they wouldn’t be as clueless as they are now.
But facing such a situation, Liu Zheng also had an indescribable feeling in his heart.
He didn’t even know how to describe what he was feeling inside right now.
A few people nearby also quickly noticed him.
They began to chat with him one after another.
"Oh my, Doctor Liu, with such incidents happening repeatedly, we’re truly a bit scared."
"Yes, and the matter with that old man hasn’t been resolved yet, and now a holess person has died out of the blue. Moreover, I’ve never seen this vagrant before; he doesn’t seem to be from our village."
"Right, Doctor Liu, now we really don’t know what to do."
Seeing these few people speaking out one after another.
Liu Zheng also gently shook his head.
"Yes, I also find it strange. I don’t know why such things keep happening. It feels quite ominous recently."
The few people beside him continued to say.
"The most important thing is that I didn’t see this place at all yesterday. I have no idea where he suddenly ca from."
"Right, right, I was wondering the sa thing. I’m completely clueless about what’s going on."
Liu Zheng imdiately tried to calm their emotions.
"You all shouldn’t worry too much for now. We’re still not clear about what exactly is going on, but it shouldn’t be anything serious. Soone will surely look into it and find out."
It was nearly ti for the children to finish school, so he had to hurry to that place.
He needed to listen carefully to what kind of clues and information the children could bring to him.
When he arrived, he casually ordered so dishes.
He was preparing to let the children choose so of their favorite dishes once they arrived.
As expected, after a while, the child ca with his friends.
"Uncle Liu, we’re here."
Liu Zheng imdiately placed the nu in front of them.
"I’ve just randomly ordered so dishes, see if there’s anything you like, and feel free to choose."
Upon hearing this, they were of course very happy.
But they also politely said,
"Thank you, Uncle Liu."
Then they began to order.
While everyone was eating, Liu Zheng imdiately brought up this topic.
"Actually, you must know why Uncle Liu is asking to see you at this ti. He must have told you, right?"
After hearing this, the children nearby all nodded in agreent.
"Yes, but what I saw at the ti was indeed the real situation."
" too, I also saw the old man one night. But he just kept walking forward, and I didn’t know what was going on."
...
The children narrated everything they had seen before, sparing no details.
For them, it was very important.
They naturally couldn’t have any reason to conceal anything.
And over the past few days, they kept hearing the adults ntion this incident.
It also instilled fear in their hearts.
If Uncle Liu could help solve this, it would indeed be a good thing for them.
And at that mont.
Liu Zheng had heard so of their testimonies.
He had gained a rough understanding of the situation.
Almost everyone said they had seen it at night, and almost always around midnight.
Moreover, what they saw was always that old man, inexplicably walking the streets.
And he walked very slowly every ti.
But he didn’t know whether he should believe these children.
Because sotis there might be so deviations in mory.
If there were slight differences, that would be explainable.
But if everyone saw almost exactly the sa scene, it would be suspicious, as if they rembered it because one person had spoken of it.
However, it was also possible that they truly had witnessed the sa scene.
So at this point, he could not be completely sure what was going on, as there was no hard evidence.
Therefore, he couldn’t make a hasty judgnt.
"Alright, so that’s how it is. Thank you for being willing to tell Uncle Liu what you know," he said.
The children in front of him shook their heads while they ate.
"It’s nothing, this is what we should do. Besides, I heard from my mom recently that these past few days, everyone in our house has been coming ho early. Nobody dares to stay out late."
"Yeah, I’m pretty scared, too."
"Yes, now after school, we don’t dare to play outside for too long. We are afraid sothing might happen."
...
It was apparent that each one of them was sowhat afraid.
After all, this was not a simple matter.
Even the adults found it unbelievable.
Not to ntion these children.
"Yes, you should stay at ho for the ti being, as much as possible. Don’t run around everywhere. After all, a lot of things have indeed happened recently."
"If sothing were to happen, it would be terrible."
After hearing Liu Zheng’s words, how could these children not know what to do?
A few of them were even so frightened that they shivered involuntarily.
They then nodded repeatedly.
"Don’t worry, like you said, we will definitely listen and behave."
"Yes, and these past few days, my parents haven’t let play outside either."
"Right, we should go ho early to avoid any trouble."
Seeing them so sensible and obedient,
Liu Zheng didn’t have much to worry about anymore.
It seed that everyone was indeed smart; they understood as soon as he spoke to them.
There was no need for him to explain over and over again.
After the al was finished, he gave them a serious reminder.
"You should head ho now, so your parents won’t worry. Rember to go back in groups so you can look out for each other in case anything happens."
Hearing this,
the children obediently nodded.
Soon after, they also expressed their gratitude.
"Thank you, Uncle Liu, for your hospitality. We’ll be going back now."
"Yes, we will definitely go ho early and listen obediently," they assured him.
Liu Zheng waved his hand and said,
"It’s fine, just make sure you go back early. And, if you co across any clues or information later on, you can co to . You know I have a small clinic where you can find ."
