The sky is white and blue.Clumps of trees passed by outside the car window, and homing birds hovered above.Even at noon, there is a hint of twilight.

Today's sky is brighter than yesterday.

Zhong Yi sat on the bus to the imperial capital, leaning her arm against the cold glass, lowering her eyes slightly to dissipate the last trace of tiredness.

The kitten's mother was discharged from the hospital today. After he got up, he did a simple check-up, and took the mother cat and demon cat back to the couple.Zhong Yi told the "No. 1 Evil Demon in Qingping Town" in advance that when he leaves, he must not speak human words, walk less in the middle of the night, and not allow people to read "Fusheng Wuliang Tianzun, meow meow meow", "Fu Sheng Wuliang Tianzun,Zhongyi is the best" is also not acceptable, we must restore the essence well and restore the prototype as soon as possible.

At that time, the cat demon blew on his beard, but because of Zhong Yi's suddenly cold face, he insisted on compromising.

The in-vehicle TV at the front of the bus entered the "Live Now" program, and the female anchor Zhong Yi had seen before was broadcast on the TV screen.

"Hi everyone, I'm Chen Chen from "Live Now". Yesterday we reported the expert's analysis of the anomalous sunrise and sunset. Today we are going to report another strange thing. In recent days, all the districts in the imperial capital have reported hearing strange things.The sound of knocking on clappers. The knocking on clappers all happened around 1:00 to 3:00 in the middle of the night, and the windows of some owners were broken."

"It is reported that in the broken window incident, none of the owners reported any economic losses. The owners of the broken windows were all Ke Er duck breeders. Some Ke Er ducks showed symptoms of neck skewing. After investigation, it was found that these ducks were on hunger strike not long ago.And resume eating after eating the duck food from the pet hospital."

Probably because she felt that every sentence she said was too ridiculous, the female anchor frowned.

The people in the car said one after another: "This is too scary."

"Is it that duck food with evil spirit?"

"No, the duck has gone on hunger strike before, so don't blame the duck food."

Zhong Yi: ...

Female anchor: "Next, let's interview Ms. Li, the property owner who lives in Fangqunyuan Community, and let us hear about her experiences."

In the picture, a young woman with glasses and ponytail appeared, looking very gentle.

She adjusted her glasses frame and said sadly: "I am a Beijing drifter, I live in the Fangqunyuan community for rent, and I raise a Ke Er duck. The property management in our community is very strict. You have to swipe your card to enter and exit the community, and it is difficult to get in and out of the elevator."There will be ladder controls. I can't imagine that this kind of thing will happen to us."

"Quack fasted a while ago, and I took him to many hospitals. Later, I heard that the Ai Pet Hospital has a very good duck food. Although the duck food is very slow, there is only one employee who is doing it, and three or fourOnly a genius can produce a batch. But for Quack, I don’t care. I ordered a catty of duck food, mixed it with ordinary duck food, and fed it to Quack, and it regained its diet.”

"Just in the middle of the night last night, I, I heard the clear sound of knocking clappers, which was very scary."

"Boom, boom, boom... boom, boom..." the young woman imitated.

"I was woken up. I didn't pay attention at first, thinking it was someone joking around. But when I thought about it, who is so bored in the middle of the night? When I opened my eyes again, I saw the window glass was broken in front of me. My rattling flew instantly.After going out the window, it was thrown back by something after a while. When it came back, its neck became like this."

A close-up shot was in front of the duckling.

A bright yellow Keer duck was quacking, but its neck was tilted strangely.A hand stretched out from the side of the camera, trying to straighten the duckling's neck, but the duck remained the same.

Like a little question mark.

The young woman calmed down her emotions: "I asked the property to monitor, and found that from the beginning to the end, there was no strange person walking in front of the building last night. Only a few minutes before the broken window, the pickup recorded the sound."

The female anchor cut the microphone to the recording of the young woman's mobile phone.

"Boom, boom, boom, boom."The melodious sound of knocking clappers resounded in the empty streets of the community, like the scene of a horror movie in the early Qing Dynasty.

"Oh my god!" The people on the bus shouted one after another.

"What is this sound?!"

"It's terrible. I thought that this evil thing happened only in Qingping Town."

The hostess cut back to the scene: "Thank you Ms. Li for sharing. As far as the program team knows, ducks with crooked necks have appeared in many communities of Imperial Capital. Since these ducks have eaten duck food from the pet hospital, we contacted the director of the hospital.Hu Pan, let's see what he will explain."

"Beep...beep..." A middle-aged man in his forties answered the phone.

"Hello, is this Mr. Hu Pan, the director of the pet hospital? I'm Chen Chen from "Live Live". May I ask why the Ke Er ducks in the hospital went on hunger strike before, and did they crook their necks after eating duck food from your hospital?What do these incidents have to do with knocking on the clapper?"

Zhong Yi heard her former boss cough.

The bus full of people who were having a lively discussion fell silent.

Heed the advice of experts.

The voice of the former president of the club was calm and steady: "For the Ke Er Duck incident, we set up a project team with senior experts from our hospital and conducted a thorough and in-depth research. We adhere to the principles of science first, bold assumptions, and careful verification.After several discussions and project meetings."

He paused.

"Hey, nothing came out of the discussion."

"Tonight, we will join experts from the Academy of Social Sciences and senior security personnel to take a look at the scene where the case may occur. Maybe everyone thinks that it is not worth it for a duck, but since it is related to the pet hospital, we are obliged.At the same time, the broken window has seriously endangered the property and safety of residents, and should be taken seriously."

Zhong Yi: ...

He was going to the imperial capital to find Xiao Peng to see the duck with the crooked neck he was talking about, because Xiao Peng seemed too frightened.But I didn't expect this kind of situation to be found in almost the entire imperial capital district.

It wasn't until the TV switched to other programs that he swiped his phone, only to find that Zhang Musen was excited again in the group.

Zhang Musen: [Everyone, don't worry, our pet hospital has hired the most NB experts for the duckling incident in the imperial capital.If this kind of thing can't even be handled by our hospital, then no one can handle it anymore.】

Classmate A: [School Committee V5, come on!Does this matter have something to do with your duck food?By the way, when did you research this duck food]

Zhang Musen: 【Of course it has nothing to do with duck food.Everyone, don't think about duck food... Duck food is duck food, crooked necks are crooked necks, and knocking on clappers is knocking on clappers.Today, the whole hospital will work overtime to diagnose and treat the ducklings with crooked necks. You can see that all the ducks with problems in the whole imperial capital have been sent here.】

Zhang Musen: [Crooked Neck Duck.jpg]

Classmate B: [Come on, school committee!】

Zhong Yi called Zhang Musen: "School Committee, can you tell me which communities have sold duck food?"

Zhang Musen became alert, and raised his voice: "What are you going to do? It's not stealing clients, right? It has nothing to do with you, and I'm sure I won't tell you."

Zhong Yi narrowed her eyes and sighed.I didn't expect this person to be so stupid.

On this day, it was dark again around four o'clock.The bustling streets of the imperial capital are illuminated by neon lights, and the tall buildings lined up with bright lights are lit up.

Doctor Zhong stood beside Xiao Peng, looked up and saw a large clump of flowers flying in the sky, circled the central axis of the imperial capital, and then flew east.

The sound of kicking, tapping, and tapping touched the ears. It turned out that a group of horses ran across the moat.They have colorful scales, and the white horns on their heads are like coral, stepping on the water, splashing crystal foam.

Xiao Peng asked Zhong Yi: "What are you looking at?"

Zhong Yi shook his head, his eyes melancholy: "It's only been more than half a month since I left the imperial capital, but I don't seem to have known this place before."

The friend hadn't seen each other for a long time, and Xiao Peng was almost crying with excitement. Unexpectedly, Zhong Yi would really come and treat him to a meal of He Di Lao.

A few hours later, two people with bags on their backs appeared at the gate of Fangguyuan community.

Xiao Peng is a boy with a baby face, and he flattened his mouth unhappily: "I really thought you were missing me, but you were actually thinking about ducklings..."

Zhong Yi rubbed his hair: "Good boy. Maybe only I can handle this matter. What a poor duckling."

Although Peng Xia didn't know why Zhong Yi said that he could only handle it, he still nodded.Since he was in school, he has listened to what he likes most, because his friend seems to have a magical power, and what he says is particularly easy to convince.

The two walked to the gate of the community, only to see some people standing at the gate inside.There are several experts from the Pet Hospital, and Zhong Yi is familiar with them.There are several burly security personnel.There are actually experts from the Academy of Social Sciences, wearing white overalls.

It seems that this incident, as the director of the pet hospital said, has really attracted attention.

Zhang Musen was also there, talking to someone with his mobile phone, probably reporting news.

Peng Xia whispered: "This is the first time I've followed someone, it's so exciting, hehe."

He took another deep breath: "However, if you ask me, you are still too serious. You really have the spirit of 'sales to the end'. If it were Zhang Musen, it would be impossible for you to do this."

Zhong Yi rolled her eyes.

The property management of Fangguyuan Community is relatively strict. Residents are required to swipe their cards to enter the door. Zhong Yi showed the director's card of Shanhai Pet Hospital, and the community gatekeeper happily let them in.

Everyone in the property knew about the duckling incident, and they were notified by their superiors that people from the pet hospital would come to do the work.

After the two went in, they hid quietly under a tree and fanned the mosquitoes with a fan.

Experts from the Pet Hospital, security experts, and experts from the Academy of Social Sciences were discussing the plan, arguing enthusiastically.After a long time, they finally made peace, and everyone moved into a unit building, and it seemed that they were going to wait in the unit with Ke Er Duck.

Peng Xia asked suspiciously, "What are you going to do?"

Zhong Yi raised an index finger to her lips: "Wait."

Time slipped away minute by minute, so long that Peng Xia, who was sitting under the tree, was sleepy, closed his eyes and fell asleep.The once noisy neighborhood returned to quiet.Insects chirp in summer from the grass, playing a symphony unique to this season.

Until two o'clock in the middle of the night, the moon was in the middle of the sky, and the light like a white gauze enveloped the community.

"Boom, boom, boom, boom."

The voice that once appeared strangely on TV has come from far away.

The voice was slow, eerily long in the cold night in the empty street.

Peng Xia woke up in an instant, seeing Zhong Yi standing up, his eyes focused on one direction.

"Zhong Yi...?" Peng Xia trembled, not knowing what to do, not knowing what to say.MD is really a ghost, I knew I would not come!Zhong Yi didn't want him to come, but he insisted on coming!

Zhong Yi pushed aside a branch of flowers, left the shadow of the whirling tree, and walked towards the street.

The young man stood in the middle of the road, wearing a doctor's navy blue robe covered with moonlight.

The sound of "Boom, Boom, Boom" stopped instantly.

"What is he going to do?" A group of people on the roof of the community residents looked downstairs.

"Who is this, what's causing the trouble? Didn't you see that we are at a critical time?" The security personnel lowered their voices, but they didn't know in which direction the silk screen in their hands was raised.

"If this person is not a mental disorder, he is a saint. What does he have to say? Young people today are really brave." Experts from the Academy of Social Sciences are very good at explaining this phenomenon.

"Currently, Duck Ke Er's neck is safe and sound, but he was awakened suddenly!" The medical team hid in the owner's house of Duck Ke Er, watching the little duck standing by the window, and made an instant report through radio equipment.

"Zhong Yi, there is a problem here!" Xiao Peng turned around in a hurry, and shouted in a low voice, "Come back quickly, have you run into an evil spirit, Amitabha, all gods bless you, we don't want to disturb passing ghosts and gods!"

At this moment.He saw his good friend slightly closed his eyes, looked calmly at the night sky into the water, and whispered softly:

"Neck pain and recurrent cervical spondylosis should be treated with traction or hot compresses. The neck protector can also use intelligent kneading for the cervical spine." After finishing speaking, Zhong Yi took out a small card from his pocket.The card was instantly swept away by the wind.

Before he said this.

There used to be a window on the upper floor of the resident rattling, shaking like sand.

But after he finished speaking, the window returned to silence.
