Looking at this young man with green hair, haggard face, wearing only a tattered coat and huddled up in a ball due to the cold, Ding Yang and I were both stunned. We thought to ourselves, I had been planning to visit you again in the evening, but you came out by yourself.
The green-haired guy was a little surprised to see the two of us. I guess he was wondering how someone could dare to live here. Then he curled his lips at me with contempt, didn't intend to say hello to us, and turned around to leave.
"Friend, a new neighbor has arrived. You have to introduce him to me. Otherwise, how are we going to get along with him in the future?"
I saw that the green-haired man was about to leave, so I immediately opened my mouth and said with a smile. The green-haired man just stopped, turned his head and looked at me again, his eyes full of contempt, and sneered: "Why should I say hello to someone like you who will get out of here in three days? I'm busy now, so I advise you not to mess with me, otherwise you will end up in trouble!"
I never expected that this Green Haired Man would have such a bad temper. I felt like I had stepped on dynamite just because I asked a casual question. I was immediately unhappy. I took a closer look at this Green Haired Man and saw that he should be older than me, but he was a skinny guy and probably not a good fighter. I was ready to go up and have a good fight with him, but Ding Yang on the side got there first and came in front of Green Haired Man. Before Green Haired Man could arrogantly say something like how many brothers were waiting for him downstairs, Ding Yang grabbed his arm and twisted it hard, and he fell to his knees on the spot.
"What are you doing! Big Liu! Little Liu! Come out quickly, someone is knocking on the door!"
Green Hair was twisted by Ding Yang so hard that he dared not move. His whole body was like a pot of boiling water. He screamed and frantically called out to his companions in the room.
Originally, I was worried that it would be difficult for the two of us to defeat the three of them, but now seeing that Ding Yang’s skills were pretty good, I felt relieved, quietly lit a cigarette, and waited for all of them to come out.
About ten seconds later, I heard a lazy voice coming from the green-haired room next to me: "Who is it again? Damn, there are so many people bullying us recently. Don't they want to die?"
As the voice came, I saw two young men walked out of Green Hair's room, one fat and one thin, they looked a bit similar and seemed to be brothers. But like Green Hair, they also had non-mainstream hairstyles, pale faces, dark circles under their eyes, and were yawning. I guess they had been sleeping just now.
The two young men walked out of the room and saw the scene in front of them. They lost all sleepiness on the spot, rolled up their sleeves and rushed towards Ding Yang and me. I thought to myself that I finally had a chance to take action, but Ding Yang obviously didn't give me any chance. He let go of the green-haired man and punched the thin man to the ground, and kicked the fat man in the vitals. The fat man squatted on the ground, holding his crotch, his body shaking violently but unable to scream.
Seeing Ding Yang's two moves, not only I, but even Green Hair and the others were scared. I guess this kind of fighting ability is the specialty of the special case team.
"Brother, let's talk it over. We don't interfere with each other. You're being so ruthless, isn't that a bit of a bully?"
When Green Hair saw that the three of them were no match for Ding Yang, he immediately stood up in fear.
Ding Yang sneered, "Weren't you arrogant just now and told us to get out? Why are you accusing us of bullying now? Besides, it was clearly you three beating me up, how did it become me bullying you?"
Green Hair seemed to know that he was in the wrong, and immediately swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth. He stared at Ding Yang fiercely, and it was unknown what he was thinking.
The fat man who was hit in the crotch by Ding Yang stood up tremblingly and said, "Yang Le, we are all dying, why are we afraid of a thing? Grab your weapons and fight these two little bastards!"
After hearing this, the green-haired guy named Yang Le's eyes gradually became fierce, and he said, "That's right, he won't live for many days anyway, it's worth it if he can drag a few people down with him to die with him!"
Having said that, Green Hair turned around and prepared to go back to the room. Ding Yang and I naturally wouldn't let him go in and get weapons to deal with us so easily. And from the tone of their voices, these people seemed to feel that they didn't have much time to live, which made me a little curious, so Ding Yang and I beat the three young men so hard that they had no power to fight back. Then we dragged the three men into their room, ready to question them properly.
At first glance, these three guys are ruffians in society. I finally understood why Officer Yang couldn't get anything out of them when he called them for questioning before. Now they don't know the identities of Ding Yang and I, so they don't have to worry about being complained about if we beat them up. Moreover, after being beaten up by us, these three guys seem to have behaved much more honestly.
After entering the room, the first thing I smelled was a foul odor. I immediately blocked my nose with my hand, turned around and looked, only to find that the toilet in the room did not seem to be flushed, and there were smelly shoes and socks everywhere on the floor, as well as a large number of beer bottles, melon seed shells and some used condoms. In short, the room was so messy that it was indescribable, and it felt not as clean as a trash can.
After Ding Yang and I entered the house, we immediately opened all the windows, and the air felt a little better. We found two small stools that were barely big enough to sit on, and we sat on them, staring at the three green-haired guys who had been lying on the ground in front of us and couldn't get up for a long time, ready to ask them what they knew.
After being beaten up by us, these three young men kept cursing and didn't seem to be willing to give in. No matter what we asked them, they didn't answer and kept cursing us. This made Ding Yang and I angry again and we prepared to teach them a lesson again.
But just as we were about to stand up, Green Hair suddenly reached out his hand to stop us and said, "Don't do it. Ask whatever you want to ask and we will answer truthfully. Da Liu, although we are already dying, it is better to live than to die. If we continue to resist, I am afraid that we will be beaten to death by the evil ghost before they can kill us. We don't know the origins of these two people, and God knows what they want to do."
The fat young man looked like Da Liu. He was the one who had been cursing the most. After hearing what Green Hair said, he was like a deflated ball. He stopped cursing at us and took out a pack of three-yuan cigarettes from his pocket, lit them up and said, "Hurry up and ask me something. I don't have time to mess around with you guys. I need to go to sleep!"
Although their attitude was still bad, at least we could communicate, so I asked, "When I came here, I heard that two people seemed to have died in your room. Do you know something? Why are you still staying here?"
Green Hair sneered, "Why are you asking this? You are not cops. You think we don't want to leave, but where can we go? Not only do we have no money, but we have also offended that evil ghost. Even if we go to the ends of the earth, we will still be killed. It is better for us to stay here and spend the last days happily. In this way, even if the evil ghost kills us, it will be worth it."
"Evil ghost? Why do you keep mentioning this evil ghost? What's going on?"
Speaking of evil ghosts, a trace of fear finally flashed in Green Hair's eyes. He seemed to be hesitant whether to tell us. In the end, it was the thin man next to him, the so-called Xiao Liu, who told us the truth of the matter.
There are five young people in this group, all from a remote small town in Zhongwei City. They grew up together. Their parents worked in other cities, so they became left-behind children in the local area.
Lacking the love and education of their parents, the five children's personalities became very bad. They often did things that were harmful to others and themselves, which made the villagers in the town at that time hate this group of people. However, this group of people also depended on each other, played together since childhood, and formed a deep friendship.
Later, the five children grew up and reached the age to get married and have children, but no one was willing to marry this group of people, so the five children came to Zhongwei City together to work hard. At the beginning, they found many jobs, but none of the jobs could be done for a long time. In the end, the five people gave up and lived an extremely decadent life by asking their parents for money every day.
This decadent life of day and night reversal lasted for about a year. A week ago, the five of them were playing cards in the middle of the night and felt bored. Green Hair suddenly suggested playing the game of Ouija for excitement. The other four immediately agreed. So they turned off all the lights in the room, took out a candle and lit it, and then prepared a piece of paper and a pen, and wrote all the things needed to play the game of Ouija on the paper. Then Green Hair and Da Liu held the pens and began to silently call for the Ouija to come.
All the procedures went smoothly, and they found that the pens in their hands began to move gradually without force as they muttered to themselves. Green Hair and others were very surprised and started asking a lot of questions, even asking what numbers would be drawn in the Double Color Ball tomorrow.
But just when the five people were having fun, perhaps because they forgot the strength in their hands or for some other reason, the tip of the pencil in their hand suddenly broke with a click, and the pencil that was still moving unconsciously on the paper also stopped because of the broken tip.
This frightened Green Hair and the others into a cold sweat! Because they all knew that if they invited the Pen Fairy but did not send it away before the pen broke, then the Pen Fairy would definitely haunt them until they died! Although this was just a legend, they believed it without any education.
Just when everyone was at a loss, the only light source in the room, the candle, was coincidentally blown out by a gust of cold wind outside the window. Then, the five young men heard that there seemed to be a strange voice in the room, speaking to them word by word in an extremely gloomy voice.
"You will all die, no one can escape!"
