"well… "
Luo Guangming was yawning from time to time, and the computer screen in front of him was also blurred. If he wasn't afraid of being scolded by the boss, he really wanted to fall asleep at the desk right now. Last night I was woken up by Gu Jin inexplicably, and then rushed to his house, and couldn't sleep after coming back.
Although I feel that he is acting, but I don't understand why he went so far? His wailing and wailing on the phone didn't sound like he was pretending, he seemed to have really suffered...
ghost…
What exactly is going on? Why did he not see anything after arriving at his house? What the hell is Gu Jin doing? Is he bewitched? Maybe that house is really a little weird...
Guangming's parents passed away one after another when he was very young. In the following days, it was because of the support of his good friend Yuezhen that he was able to have hope. It was an agreement between the two of them in high school that they could be admitted to the same university as him. Interest in supernatural rumors is also a common hobby of the two. At first, both of them looked at the supernatural with the mentality of exploring mysterious things. Although there are many rumors and information that can be collected on the Internet, it is difficult to distinguish between true and false. So Yue Zhen is very much in favor of practicing it for himself, that is, going to the rumored places to try it out as much as possible, and making it a test of courage that the two of them will definitely hold every year.
Zhou Feng met after they entered university. She and Yuezhen were in the same class. Because she was cute and clever, and matched Yuezhen's personality, the two soon became chatty and gradually changed. For the relationship similar to boyfriend and girlfriend. When she heard about the game of courage between the two, she also agreed to participate. As for Gu Jin, he joined because he wanted to be a hero.
When organizing the game, he didn't think about the danger at all. Because he believes that supernatural beings are just mysterious phenomena that human beings cannot explain with science after all. In fact, there are no so-called ghosts at all. yes... there won't be...
But Yuezhen's expression seemed a little too serious yesterday... Luo Guangming knew the character of this friend very well, he wouldn't take such unfounded things so seriously, maybe...you should ask him? Luo Guangming always believed that he was hiding something. Did he discover something while organizing this game, but didn't say it
He couldn't bear it anymore, so he said to a colleague next to him, "Xiao Wang, can you buy me a can of coffee? I'll give you the money when I get back."
He wanted to refresh himself with coffee, but the other party seemed reluctant to run errands, so he asked, "You can ask your good friend to go, why did you let me go?"
"Yuezhen? Isn't he not in the office now? I have work to do, please."
The other party had no choice but to agree. After he left, Guangming suddenly realized something.
Why is the office so quiet today? Usually the sound should be very messy at this time. After all, work is very busy now! He stood up and looked around, and sure enough, he was the only one left in this office. It was nothing at first, but at this moment he felt a bit chilly.
But there was no way, there was still work to be done, so he continued to sit down. However, at this time, there was a sudden vibration from the window behind him, and he was frightened, and knocked all the documents on the table to the ground. Looking back, it turned out that a bird had hit the window.
"Damn it... scared me to death..."
Guangming heaved a sigh of relief, and bent down to pick up the documents on the floor. Nearly a dozen sheets of paper were scattered on the ground, and some of them were scattered under the desks of other colleagues. So he had to kneel on the ground to get it.
One of the papers was scattered in the gap between him and another colleague. The moment his fingertips were about to touch the document, he actually saw the paper slowly move to the other side of the partition wall!
This... how is this possible? This piece of paper was firmly caught in the gap, and even the wind could not blow it away... The only assumption is that there is another person on the other side of the partition wall, and he pulled the paper from the other side. But, he should be the only one in the office now! He just confirmed it!
There is a wall between him and the other party now, not even a wall, as long as he stands up, he can see if there is anyone on the other side. But he didn't dare... he didn't dare!
The tiredness that had been bothering him just now disappeared without a trace, and he couldn't help but regret letting Xiao Wang buy him coffee just now. At this moment, he could only shout mechanically: "Yes, is there anyone? Then, those are my work documents, please return them to me..."
The height of this partition wall is just over one meter, and the width is less than one meter. This is such a wall, and behind it is a person who should not exist at all!
His head was lowered, his eyes fixed on the gap. At this moment, in that gap, bright red... fresh blood flowed out! Make no mistake, it's blood!
More and more blood flowed out from this small gap, and Luo Guangming, who couldn't stand it anymore, turned pale and backed away, but he found that the blood seemed to flow according to the path he retreated! Immediately, he noticed another thing that made his hair stand on end...
A woman's figure was reflected on the blood! It was the female ghost in that painting!
"Don't, don't come here! Don't!"
With the expansion of fear, he had to run to the door, and then rushed to the elevator desperately. He must escape, must!
The moment the elevator door opened, Xiao Wang happened to be back, holding a can of coffee in his hand, and asked: "What's wrong with you? Xiao Luo...wow, why did you hit me? Hey, you didn't ask me to go For coffee?"
And in the elevator, there is Yue Zhen. Seeing Guangming's frightened expression, he quickly grabbed him and shouted, "Hey, what's going on? Guangming, what's wrong with you?"
"Yuezhen... We have stepped into a forbidden area that shouldn't be entered..."
He held Yue Zhen's shoulder tightly and said, "That female ghost... she came out! From that painting! She came to us! What are you hiding, tell me! Don't tell me no!"
Yue Zhen frowned, pulled him into the next toilet, closed the door, and said, "Tell me, what happened? The female ghost? You mean the female ghost in that painting that day?"
"Yeah, tell me! Who is that painter... and that painting, and what's going on?"
Yuezhen's hands also started to tremble at this moment, he thought for a while, and said: "Listen...don't tell Xiaofeng, do you understand? She is timid and can't stand being scared...I really didn't expect this to happen, I really didn't expect it to happen. It's going to be like this..."
Then, he began to tell him about Ningluo.
"That painter may have been killed by the ghost he painted."
"Killed by a ghost I drew?"
Run An asked the old fisherman in surprise.
"Well, it's unbelievable, right? I think so too. But people around here say so. Maybe you will say it's superstition or something, but Mr. Ning's death is really weird. He died in his studio , Before he died, when the police arrived, he found that his studio was a pure secret room. Sounds like a murder in a mystery novel, right? At that time, the body fell in front of an easel, but the strange thing is that when he was dying In front of him, he was facing a painting in front of him with horror. The police also found that almost all the paintings in his house were paintings of ghosts, and they were extremely realistic and terrifying. "
Out of fear, Run An never looked at the society page when reading newspapers, because he was afraid of seeing horrible and bizarre deaths, anyway, he knew very well that someone would die. But why didn't he have a premonition of Ning Luo's death? If his death was really caused by the ghost in the painting... Could it be because this is the outskirts of the city, which is beyond the scope of his premonition? But if this is the case, why can I feel the other people
In this way, perhaps such an inference can be made
With a person whose supernatural power is higher than his own, the life and death of the other party is beyond his premonition? is that so? Only an all-knowing and omnipotent premonitor like Ah Jing's father can foresee Mr. Ning's death
It would be somewhat disadvantageous if the faculty of premonition were limited at this point. People with natural supernatural physiques must try to protect them from being killed by ghosts within the time limit of death, and the difficulty must be less than that of ordinary people. From this point of view, it is really important to improve spiritual abilities.
"As I said," Yuezhen helped Guangming analyze: "I'm afraid he destroyed the brushes and palettes when he was alive, and he was worried that ghosts would reappear in the future. The reason why I I didn’t tell you before, because this is a rumor after all, the authenticity is very doubtful, if you say it, it may increase your fear to some extent... "
Without further ado, Guangming threw his fist at Yuezhen, and roared, "Are you making a mistake? This is a matter of our life and death! Didn't you say it before? We are only exploring supernatural phenomena, and at the same time we must ensure that Safety, we are not Maoshan Taoist priests, so we will lose our lives! What should we do? That female ghost has already targeted us, Gu Jin is the first, I am the second, who is next? Are you still Xiaofeng?"
Yuezhen was punched, but he was not annoyed, stood up with the help of the washstand, and said: "Speaking of Gu Jin...he called me last night..."
"Called me too! So he, like me, is haunted by that female ghost? Then what should we do? By the way, I have a solution. Let's take a barrel of gasoline and go back to that house. Burn that painting! That way, that female ghost won't be able to haunt me, will I?"
Yuezhen nodded and said: "Well... well, let's use this method. But don't burn it in the house, if it causes a fire, it will be troublesome. I suggest taking the painting out and burning it in a place where there is no one. Maybe That'll fix everything."
"Are you going to burn paintings? Then count me in!"
Because Luo Guangming no longer had the guts to stay in this unit, he simply resigned, and when Yuezhen returned to the office, he didn't see the blood that Guangming said. As soon as he told Gu Jin about the plan, he immediately proposed that he would also participate. Of course, what he meant was not to enter the house, and wait for them to come out to help burn the paintings together.
"Forget it," Yuezhen could see that he was very scared, and replied, "You just stay here and help Guangming take over. When the painting is burned, you will not be in danger."
Thinking that he might be able to get rid of that female ghost, Gu Jin felt a lot of excitement, but he was indeed filled with fear. So, he agreed to Yue Zhen and stayed here to wait for their news. Anyway, I won't go home until tomorrow morning, so I really have nothing to worry about tonight.
"Also... this matter must be kept a secret from Xiaofeng. She is a girl, and she will be frightened if she finds out."
Gu Jin could only nod his head, hoping that they could burn the painting smoothly tonight.
"Still no clues?"
At this moment, Run An and Ah Jing were standing in front of the door of Ning's house, both of them were frowning. I'm afraid that Gu Jin is doomed. Now I don't even know whether he lives in the suburbs or the city. It is impossible to find this person just by his name and appearance.
Run An said: "Gu Jin has no choice but to give up. The only way is to find friends around him through the introduction of him in the newspaper after his death."
"friend?"
"Hmm." Run An began to express his inference: "Although I don't know the reason, there must be more than one person who has been to this house. One is that other people have inquired about this house, and the other is that there are more than one footprints left in the room. .And being able to come to this abandoned house together, shouldn’t it be passers-by who met by chance? After all, there are many supernatural legends about this house around. At that time, investigate the people around Gu Jin, and after having a hunch, compare them. The second person Then we can find it relatively easily... At least, the scope will be much smaller. There is no other way, only through Gu Jin's death can we find the rest of the people."
"Is it really the only way to do this?" Ah Jing also seemed very unbearable: "I also used a computer to hack into the household registration management systems of surrounding cities, but the database is too huge and there is no clear scope. It is too difficult to find out." It's too difficult."
Really... there is no other way
At this moment, the two suddenly noticed two figures walking on the dark path in the distance.
Gu Jin, who worked late at night at the unit, was still unable to work with peace of mind because he was worried about Yue Zhen's situation. He didn't sleep well last night, and now he was tired again, but there was no other way. In order to finish the work, he had to work hard, not to mention waiting for Yuezhen's news.
If you burn that painting, that ghost won't come out, right? But is it too late? Maybe that ghost will come to the unit... No, it will definitely, after all, Guangming's incident is the best proof. Make no mistake, she will follow!
Fortunately, he wasn't the only one working overtime in the office. Two or three other people were also staying up late and working hard, and the lights were turned on in the room, so the sense of fear was greatly reduced.
After completing the fifteenth email that needed to be sent, he could hardly keep his eyes open. I couldn't bear it anymore, and lay down on the table for a while.
Close your eyes and rest for a few minutes... It doesn't matter, right
He pinched the manuscript of the sixteenth e-mail and leaned his head heavily on the table.
I don't know how long it took before I seemed to have consciousness.
"Why did I fall asleep... Really... why is it so dark around..."
He raised his head and looked around, and it was indeed dark, but his intuition told him that this place was not in the office. How is this going? He scratched his head, regained consciousness, reached for the light switch on the wall, and turned it on.
What!
How is it possible... how is this possible
He was actually sleeping on his own bed!
"No, it's impossible!" He rolled and ran out of bed, came to the door, and just about to open the door, his hands stopped.
He can't escape... No matter where he escapes... This house has become a cage to lock him up!
After hesitating on the spot for about ten minutes, he finally looked towards Maoyan.
An equally pale pupil was also looking at him!
