Chapter 56: White Building

Views:

After Officer Yang told me about this white building, although I didn't believe it was haunted, I still felt uneasy, so I asked, "Didn't you send anyone to investigate? This kind of news can't be all groundless, right?"

"Why send someone? There are so many tourists there. If there really is a ghost, something would have happened long ago. I don't know who spread the rumor. If I catch him, it would be strange if I don't lock him up for a while!" Officer Yang said angrily, but his expression has been frowning since he saw the note. He doesn't look as relaxed as he says. I always feel that Officer Yang must be hiding something from me.

After Officer Yang finished speaking, he turned to me and asked, "What do you think about this matter? We are old acquaintances. Just say whatever you want to say."

"What else can I do? Now it's a question of whether to go or not. The note says I should go tonight, but I think I'd better wait until tomorrow morning."

Officer Yang was puzzled and asked, "Why?"

"No reason. Only an idiot would go there on time at night as instructed above. Haven't you seen those horror movies where the people who died the most miserably went to the most dangerous places at the most dangerous times? If you don't commit suicide, you won't die. I understand this principle."

Officer Yang seemed to agree with my answer and nodded, saying, "Well, since you said so, I think we should ask Chief Bai. Chief Bai has previously instructed that all matters related to Qiongqi must be notified to their special case team. I think this matter should not be simple, so we should hear what he thinks first."

After saying that, Officer Yang picked up the phone and called Bai Qi. The call was connected quickly. Officer Yang simply told Bai Qi about the matter and then handed the phone to me.

"Ji Wen, since Qiongqi has invited you so warmly, I think you should go there tonight. If anything happens again this time, don't worry, you will still be paid as we said before."

Bai Qi was a very honest man. He offered me the reward without waiting for me to refuse, leaving me speechless. If I could get paid this time, the situation would be completely different. Although I was still a little scared, I nodded and agreed to Bai Qi.

"That Qiongqi set up two cases for you in a row, and you solved them both. This one must be no ordinary one. Anyway, you should be careful. I will send people to support you now. I think they will be able to meet you at night. You go in first. If anything happens, don't show off. Wait until our supporters arrive."

When I heard that the special case team had support, I immediately thought of Lin Yingxue, and asked, "Who's coming? Is Lin Yingxue coming?"

Bai Qi let out an inexplicable laugh and said, "Don't worry, she will definitely go."

I didn't understand what Bai Qi meant by this smile, so after a few more casual words, I hung up the phone and turned to Officer Yang and asked, "If that's the case, let's go together tonight."

When he heard that I wanted him to go with me, Officer Yang immediately shook his head and said, "Forget it, I won't go in, but I will definitely go with you when the time comes. I'll bring people to guard outside the door, and you can notify me at any time if there is anything."

In my heart, I despised Officer Yang from head to toe. Ever since he was unwilling to go to the ancestral grave in Heishan Village to monitor last time, I knew that Officer Yang, although righteous on the surface, was actually a coward who was afraid of ghosts. He was terrified of anything related to ghosts, even if he knew it was fake. I had to admit that he was inferior to me. After living for most of my life, he was even more cowardly than me.

I didn't expose him to his face, I just nodded and agreed. After all, if we went in as a group, maybe what was going to happen wouldn't happen. So I chatted with Officer Yang for a few more words and went home to rest. Officer Yang said he would pick me up at my house in the evening.

After returning home, I kept thinking about this matter. I didn't know what would happen when I went to the White Building this time. Would there be a series of strange murders like before? But my heart was beating very hard after I came out of the police station. I didn't know if it was because of nervousness or because I had a premonition of something. In short, I was in a daze the whole afternoon. This state caused me to fail to advance to gold again. Just when I was about to smash the computer, Officer Yang called me. Only then did I realize that it was already 10:50 in the evening.

I packed up everything in a hurry and went downstairs, where I saw Officer Yang still waiting downstairs in his police car. There were two other police cars accompanying him, which were full of people. It seemed that we were going there as a large group this time, which made me feel a little safer.

I forgot to eat in the afternoon. As it was still early, I gave Officer Yang a good beating. The police officers accompanying me took advantage of me and had a nice midnight snack at the night market. Officer Yang kept sighing, which almost made me laugh.

After having supper, it was almost time. When we arrived at the so-called white building, it was already past midnight.

I have indeed never been to the area where the White Building is located. It is a bit far from the city, almost at the edge of the suburbs. The geographical location is not very good. There are residential buildings on all sides, which cover this place tightly and make it difficult to be found. Moreover, the transportation is not very convenient. No wonder the hospital here chose to relocate. How could there be patients if the hospital was opened here

However, the area of the entire white building is still very large. Directly in front of me is a six-story white abandoned old building. Just at a glance, you can tell that the internal space of this building must be very large. And behind the building in front, there seems to be some building hidden in the darkness, but it is too far away, and it is too dark around now, so I can't see it clearly.

The white building is particularly conspicuous in the dark night. The outer walls of the building are covered with a lot of dust, and there are many traces of graffiti on the walls of the first floor. All the windows have been broken, even those on the sixth floor. But what is strange is that these windows have been sealed from the outside for some reason. It must be so dark inside that even the moonlight cannot be seen. Seeing such a building, even if you come here during the day, you will probably feel a little creepy.

We parked the car at the door and got out. I looked up at the white building in front of me and couldn't help swallowing. I turned to Officer Yang and said, "This place looks haunted. It's a bit scary for me to go in alone in the dark. Why don't you come in with me, Officer Yang?"

Officer Yang immediately refused, "If two of us go in, it will alert the enemy. You can go in alone. Besides, if there is someone doing something wrong inside, we can surround and arrest them from outside."

I turned around and saw that the faces of the police officers around me were full of disbelief. It was obvious that they all knew that their boss, Officer Yang, was actually a coward.

Now that I'm already here, and Bai Qi has agreed to give me the money, I have no reason to back down. I took the courier box that Officer Yang had fixed, and while I'm not too scared yet, I turned around and prepared to go in.

"Wait, hold this."

Officer Yang suddenly called me and handed me a black object in his hand. When my eyes had completely adjusted to the darkness, I could see clearly that it was a small walkie-talkie.

"This is how you speak. Remember to add "finished" at the end of your speech. If you encounter any situation, contact us immediately and we will rush in to rescue you as soon as possible." Officer Yang said as he demonstrated to me.

I put the walkie-talkie in my pocket, turned on the flashlight I had prepared in advance, walked directly into the door of the white building, and groped my way into the endless darkness.

As soon as I entered the door, I smelled a foul odor, as if I had entered the toilet of an Internet cafe. I immediately took a flashlight and shone it around. Then I discovered that on the floor of the lobby on the first floor of this white building, in addition to various debris and bricks, there were also many traces of human feces and urine. It turned out that this old building had been used as a public toilet.

At this moment, I was no longer in the mood to be afraid. I resisted the urge to vomit and walked carefully towards the second floor step by step. Finally, I crossed this "minefield".

When I reached the second floor, I was completely trapped in a dark space. There was no other light except the faint light from the flashlight. I could vaguely see Officer Yang and others outside the door on the first floor, but now I couldn't see anyone. The fear in my heart instantly magnified infinitely. My legs were a little weak, and I really wanted to turn around and leave this damn place.

"Really? You asked me to send this thing here, but you didn't tell me where to send it specifically. Why don't I just leave it here and talk about it tomorrow if there's anything else?"

As I thought this in my mind, I was about to put the express box in my hand on the steps and go back, but before I bent down, there was a sudden rustling sound in my pocket, which scared me so much that I almost rolled down the stairs!

"Ji Wen, Ji Wen, can you hear me? Is there anything unusual in there? Over."

It turned out to be the sound coming from the walkie-talkie. I wanted to smash the walkie-talkie right now. It must have scared me to death to hear this sudden sound in this scary place.

"It's okay, everything is fine. I'll take a look around the second floor. If I don't find anything, I'll go back. This place is too scary. Over."

After replying to Officer Yang, I put the walkie-talkie back into my pocket. The flashlight inadvertently swept across the room with the open door in front of me, and in the instant that the light flashed, I saw a pair of feet!

All of a sudden I felt my scalp go numb, and I immediately took the flashlight and shone it towards the room in front of me. I saw a person standing at the door of the open room. He was wearing white clothes with bloodstains all over his clothes, with disheveled hair, and blood oozing from the corners of his eyes and mouth. He was staring at me with wide eyes!
