One back and one back two trips, what they did was really lucky that no one found out.
"It's done now... let's go."
Geng Qinghe didn't dare to touch it directly, so he took a splash of water from the nearby stream and washed his hand, and confirmed with concern: "If it's burned like this, it shouldn't be revived again?"
Gu Heng: "..."
It's like he has experience.
"It's useless to ask me," he said calmly. "It's the first time I've ever done something like this."
How to perfectly dispose of Kawakami Tomie's body is still a technical job.
It’s not that this kind of thing never happened—her five fingers still regenerated five new Fujiang after being thrown into the fire, but it took longer to burn the most serious one.
Blood injected into a woman can gradually assimilate the other party into Fu Jiang, and even inserting hair directly on it can make people hallucinate.
Tomie Kawakami is such an existence, and he has to find a way to leave no trace.
Although diesel oil was brought out from the small garage of the hotel, the conditions were limited, and it would take time and energy to do it thoroughly.
Geng Qinghe breathed a sigh of relief after burying the last bit of residue and ashes deep in the soil, stepping on it firmly and pushing some fallen leaves from the side to block it.
He didn't even breathe out, and halfway through exhaling, he was frightened back by the white light that swept over his eyes.
"It's weird," the patrolling policeman took a flashlight and looked around, "I didn't see anyone."
Geng Qinghe hid behind the bushes, seeing the white light beam passing by his hand, his Adam's apple couldn't help rolling.
He sneaked a glance at Gu Heng, who was also squatting on the side, but the other party was quite calm, and continued to listen to the movements of the two policemen with his head turned sideways.
"Didn't you just say there was smoke?"
Another cop muttered.
"It seems to have a burnt smell... But it doesn't look like it was burned here," he kicked the leaves on the ground, the rustling sound was horrifying, and there was no trace, "Let's go, go and look elsewhere. "
The two policemen walked away, Geng Qinghe leaned against the trunk of the tree, and now he wiped his sweat with confidence.
"… okay."
Gu Heng couldn't laugh or cry for a moment, "Those who don't know think you killed him."
"I didn't kill it, but it was cold when I entered the police station."
Geng Qinghe murmured, but he also knew the truth of not being able to stay in the place where the crime was committed for a long time, "Shouldn't it be time to go back now—to find Sister You and the others?"
Of course, these "things" and blankets could not be moved around manually. Their car was parked on the other side of the woods, in the opposite direction from the police who came to check the situation during the patrol.
Geng Qinghe was glad that they had given up on Minglu, otherwise they would definitely have run into each other.
He got into the passenger seat—this car was supposed to be used by the boss himself, and the key was still inserted in it when he found it in the garage.
They only picked trails back and forth, and it was hard to see even a single person on these corners and narrow roads. Because of this, both of them were taken aback when someone rushed out of the front unexpectedly.
Gu Heng slammed on the brakes, and the car almost stopped within a short distance of hitting someone, and Geng Qinghe almost hit his forehead on the glass.
"Why is this guy—" he blurted out subconsciously, and immediately recognized the man, "... eh?!"
Who else but Lu Zhenjie could be bathed in the glaring light of the headlights
It wasn't long before they left to act, but Lu Zhenjie's eyebrows were a little more depressed. He looked in a hurry, although he was so shaken that he couldn't open his eyes, he still tightly protected the things wrapped in cloth in his arms.
It's like protecting your lifeblood.
"Why are you here?"
Immediately thinking of something from his stance of running for his life in a hurry, Geng Qinghe lowered the car window and leaned half his body out, "... Did something happen at the hotel?!"
"An accident?"
Lu Zhenjie murmured so softly that he had to prick his ears to hear clearly.
"I don't know, I don't know..." Geng Qinghe always feels that the other party's condition is not normal at the moment, "But I have to protect... She wants me to take her away, so I just..."
… Protect
Gu Heng moved one step faster.
With a "bang", he closed the car door, and arrived in front of Lu Zhenjie in three steps in two.
"What's in your arms?" he asked.
Before he finished speaking, he stretched out his hand to lift the cloth covering it.
"Get out of the way!" Lu Zhenjie yelled.
He hid in a panic, and his state was already unstable. In a panic, he messed up his hands and feet, and Bu slipped down by himself—
Geng Qinghe blinked and saw clearly from a distance.
Under the thin cloth, Tomie Kawakami has grown a head with slender limbs underneath.
Inside the hotel.
"Ahhh!"
When the chili water comes into contact with the mucous membrane, the degree of irritation is far beyond what normal people can bear. The sword fell to the ground with a clang, and Takeo Saeki, who was attached to Tsuchiya, screamed, covering his eyes tightly with both hands.
"Lin You!" Jian Mingjia shouted against the door, "Come here, this way!"
Lin You threw the watering can aside, and rushed past Takeo Saeki.
She didn't expect that this would have much effect, she just wanted to delay for a while so that they could escape from the kitchen.
Ordinary people are sprayed to the point that it is estimated that they will suffer less than half an hour, but the Tsuchiya who is possessed—
Oops.
Lin You turned around subconsciously.
Shorter than expected.
When she hit the stick, she guessed that the possession of Takeo Saeki had somewhat strengthened his physical ability, but she didn't expect it to be like this—
Takeo Saeki gasped heavily. He opened his eyes that were reddened by the hot pepper water, stared at the two men viciously, and slowly bent down to pick up the sharp knife again.
He straightened up, swung his knife and stabbed at Lin You. The latter turned his head in time, only letting the cold blade brush past.
... ? !
It was at this moment that she saw Takeo Saeki's face change from a close distance.
The facial features changed suddenly, but there was a familiar shadow. The man's face twisted into pain, and his lips moved.
"rich… "
In the next second, he changed back to Takeo Saeki, clutching the handle of the knife and trying to strike.
It's just that the knife didn't have time to stab halfway, and Tsuchiya's face appeared again, screaming and wanting to touch his eyes.
Lin You: "..."
Jian Mingjia: "..."
Instead of running away, the two of them watched this rare face-changing show in silence, and Lin You wondered whether to cheer for Tsuchiya.
Gradually, the earth house itself lasted longer and longer, and finally stabilized completely.
He prostrated himself on the ground, lamenting and covering his face sprayed by pepper water, especially his eyes that were still stinging. His ability to handle pain is clearly not as good as that of Takeo Saeki, which also proves that the latter may have left him.
But compared to this, he obviously cared about another thing more.
"Fu Jiang," Tsuchiya said, ignoring his eyes, which were still barely open, "Let me find her!"
Lin You: "Isn't she just upstairs?"
"upstairs?"
Tsuchiya repeated.
"No, she's not there," he said. "Someone took her! I feel like someone took her from me, and you all have to help me—"
His frantic words ended in a muffled grunt.
"You'd better sleep a little longer."
Standing behind him, Jian Mingjia put down the rolling pin. As expected, Takeo Saeki was no longer there, and the strength that was only enough to make him stagger a step before could knock Tsuchiya unconscious now.
The innkeeper himself fell limply to the ground without making a sound.
Looking at it this way, Lin You thought, the chili water stimulated his body, as for what really supported him and woke up—
"This obsession is really scary."
Jian Mingjia trembled, and concluded: "Is Fu Jiang's influence so great?"
"However," she paused, "what he just said..."
Lin You said "hmm".
"If what he said is true, it will be easy to explain."
Lin You said: "Lu Zhenjie hasn't been seen until now. I'm afraid he was lured by Fu Jiang and ran away with her."
Hearing this, Jian Mingjia slapped himself on the forehead.
"If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have let him stay there," she said angrily, "I'll be with you too."
"This is not good."
Lin You said.
"Her influence doesn't discriminate between men and women. If you stay together, it may be a double kill."
Jian Mingjia: "..."
It seems to be the same.
"So," she sighed, "what now?"
"The door and window can't be opened," Lin You said, "However, someone opened an exit in advance, maybe you can go there and try."
Concise and easy to understand.
She pulled the electric switch downstairs and never heard anything. And Lu Zhenjie wanted to take Fu Jiang to escape, but he couldn't get through the main entrance, so there was only one way left.
— Flip the window.
The windows of that room were most likely still open.
"After running for a long time, I still have to turn back and go upstairs," Jian Mingjia shook his head.
"So, ask me—as long as they don't initiate an attack during this time, I'd like to wait."
Going upstairs is bound to meet Sadako or Kayako again. If you want to survive successfully, you have to rely on something at hand.
For example, wait for her cooldown to elapse.
"learn."
Jian Mingjia dragged a chair to block the door where the lock had been broken, thinking about sitting on it.
She doesn't care if it's dangerous or not - Sadako and Kayako, who ignore space, are equally unsafe anywhere, and the latter can still get out of the bed.
Waiting was more difficult than rushing straight to the two of them to die.
Jian Mingjia stared at a black mark by the wall for a long time, always suspecting that Kayako would emerge from there in the next second.
"..."
Then she discovered that it was smoky.
Time passed minute by minute, and her long period of fear and anxiety finally came to an end with Lin You's "Okay".
Sadako was obviously not in a hurry before, and there was no movement from Kayako's side after Takeo Saeki appeared, maybe they were all waiting for them both to come to the door.
"But it's also really weird."
Jian Mingjia muttered: "It's been so long, haven't those two come back?"
It's the same thing if you can't get in, you can't even hear the sound—
"We can only talk after we go out," Lin You pushed open the door, "Let's go."
The corridor was as quiet as ever.
Even with the lights on, knowing that there are two female ghosts sitting in the town, it is so gloomy that it can send chills down one's spine.
Jian Mingjia swallowed, and walked carefully step by step to the entrance of the lobby. She relaxed a little, but just as she turned to go upstairs, a glance from the corner of her eye made her freeze.
Behind her, Lin You saw the same scene.
In the corner of the coffee table, squatting a pale little boy.
He was naked except for a pair of underwear. Black pupils accounted for most of the eyes, with thick dark circles under the eyes, staring at the direction of the two of them motionlessly.
— Toshio.
Lin You thought quickly.
... She does know who is good at coaxing children.
Junxiong looked at them, opened his mouth slowly, both of them knew what he was going to do—calling Kayako with a creepy meow.
Without thinking about it, Lin You grabbed a card with his backhand.
Before a meow came out, Junxiong opened his mouth halfway, looking curiously at the guy who appeared behind her.
The slender ghost's face without any facial features turned to Lin You, who shrugged. He snorted and walked past her.
Then, he squatted down in front of Junxiong who was hugging his knees, and extended his hand to him in a friendly manner.
