Chapter 379: Utility Room
"Baby?" Meng Jian frowned, he checked all the way from the first floor, and he didn't find any children and babies!
Also, will the baby push the door in on its own?
Ghost baby, right? One of the clues of this mission? His previous guess was right! This old house is indeed haunted!
"Its face is black and blue, it doesn't look like a normal person at all......" Zhou Yan gasped and said again.
"Is the dream you had just now also this baby?" Meng Jian asked Zhou Yan.
"It's not...... It's a woman wearing a mask......" Zhou Yan told Meng Jian in detail about the nightmare she had just now, and when she talked about those bloody horrors, her body trembled again. The main reason is that when the abdomen was dissected by the masked woman's hand and claw, the pain was too real, and now recalling it still makes Zhou Yan a little unbearable.
"This house may be haunted, so your grandmother and uncle won't want it. Meng Jian analyzed it, and if he changed to someone else, he might be afraid of this phenomenon, but for Meng Conversion, it was already strange.
"Haunted?" Zhou Yan's face turned even paler.
"Hmm. Meng Jian frowned, in the real world, he would not be afraid of these little wild ghosts, and the Yaksha ghost would destroy them with a little finger. But in the mission world, all of his abilities are restricted, and there is no effective way to take these little ghosts for the time being.
"The house is haunted, so what should we do?" Zhou Yan asked Meng Conversion.
"Let's move to a hotel in the town and stay there. Meng Jian thought about it and talked to Zhou Yan for a while. Although it was confirmed that the old house was haunted, Meng Jian was close to finding the clues of this mission, but considering the safety of Zhou Yan's mother and son. He made that decision anyway.
After settling Zhou Yan's mother and son elsewhere, he can still continue to look for clues in this old house.
Zhou Yan hesitated for a while, but then shook his head: "We don't have much money on hand now. Isn't it a hundred yuan a day to stay in a hotel? It costs dozens of dollars to say the least, and the conditions are very poor. ”
"But...... This house is haunted......" Meng Jian reminded Zhou Yan.
"It was a nightmare. Zhou Yan shook her head again.
"What about the little girl?"
"It's an illusion. I was so scared that I hallucinated. Zhou Yan suddenly changed her words very firmly.
Meng Jian sighed, he now has a little understanding of Zhou Yan's character, knowing that she has been poor since she was a child, and she has to work to save her own tuition fees when she goes to college, so she takes money very seriously, and saying that the hotel conditions are poor or something is a reason, but in fact, she doesn't want to waste money.
On the other hand, Meng converted to this world to complete the mission, and now the old house is haunted. Meng Jian felt that the main line of this nightmare mission was related to this haunted house, and it might be related to Zhou Yan, once Zhou Yan left this old house, those clues would likely disappear.
For the sake of the safety of their mother and son, Meng Jian would strongly persuade Zhou Yan to go to the hotel, and from the more selfish perspective of completing the task herself, it would be more in Meng Conversion's interests not to leave.
Zhou Yan insisted on refusing to stay in the hotel and wanted to stay here, so Meng Yan didn't persuade him anymore.
This is, after all, the world of missions.
It's just that...... Meng Jian has been on a mission since. I've never been so confused like this time, and I always feel ...... This mission world seems to be more like the real world than the real world.
It's a very bad feeling, and maybe it will make him lost.
"We won't stay for too long, anyway. I've posted online that people can come and see the house, and as long as someone is willing to pay for it, we can get the money out of the house and go back to the city. Zhou Yan sighed when he saw Meng Conversion. Thinking that he didn't want to live here, he hurriedly comforted him in turn.
"The house in the town. There are many restrictions on selling, is it useful to post it on the Internet?" Meng Qian replied to Zhou Yan.
"Try it......" Zhou Yan lowered her head.
"You sleep. I'll watch over you, and I'll sleep when you're asleep, and don't be afraid of anything with me. Meng Jian put the kitchen knife he had just brought up under his pillow and talked to Zhou Yan.
"Hmm...... That...... Don't turn off the lights. Zhou Yan glanced at Meng Conversion, and then closed his eyes.
"I don't turn off the lights, you can sleep. Meng Jian touched Zhou Yan's head. He knew that girls would only go to bed without turning off the lights when they were scared, and Zhou Yan must be very scared now, but because he didn't want to spend money to live in a hotel, he could only hold on.
Zhou Yan fell asleep with her eyes closed, and after a while, she opened her eyes again, and saw that Meng Jian was still looking at her, so she closed her eyes again, and then she really fell asleep. After Zhou Yan fell asleep, the exhausted Meng Jian also fell asleep in a daze.
But it didn't take long for Meng Jian to hear some strange sounds and suddenly wake up again.
The strange sound was from the electric light in the room, the squeak of electricity, and the electric light flickered on and off, as if the voltage had become somewhat unstable.
Meng Wei reached out and touched the mobile phone on the bedside to look at the time, it was now more than three o'clock in the night, he sat up, and looked at Zhou Yan beside him, she was obviously asleep.
At this moment, Meng Jian suddenly heard movement downstairs.
Like footsteps.
The house is definitely haunted.
Maybe this nightmare mission has something to do with solving the haunting of this house, right?
According to Meng Conversion's experience, if there are ghosts in any mission, these ghosts will not be too strong or aggressive at first, and will always intimidate people first, slowly destroy people's will, and absorb nutrients from people's fear to become stronger.
Therefore, if you want to know what the hell is going on in the house and the reason for the occurrence of these ghosts, you must act as soon as possible and formulate corresponding solutions, otherwise it will become more difficult to deal with them when these ghosts are strong.
Judging from Zhou Yan's description, there should be two ghosts in this old house, one is the long-haired masked woman, she seems to be full of hostility to the child in Zhou Yan's belly, and after digging it out of Zhou Yan's belly, she also broke its cervical and lumbar vertebrae.
Then, there's a ghost baby.
Who are these long-haired masked women and ghost babies?
Could the deaths of Zhou Yan's mother and father also be related to these two ghosts?
When it is convenient tomorrow, it is good to ask Zhou Yan in detail about the construction time and some previous history of this old house, if Zhou Yan is not clear, then learn about it from someone who knows.
It is estimated that the person who knows the most about this old house is likely to be Zhou Yan's grandmother, but Zhou Yan's grandmother seems to be very repulsive to Zhou Yan and him, if you really want to investigate the history of this old house, you have to let the old grandmother tell the truth.
As a last resort, Meng Jian did not rule out the use of some inhumane special measures to find answers.
Now, let's take a look at the footsteps downstairs. Meng Jian took out a kitchen knife from under the pillow, got out of bed lightly, walked to the door of the bedroom and opened the door.
Of course, the kitchen knife is not used to deal with ghosts, but to prevent thieves and robbers from entering the house in the town. In the real world, if ghosts appear in the house, Meng Wei has a hundred ways to torture and kill these ghosts, but in the mission world, all he can rely on is his courage and wisdom.
When the bedroom door opened, there was a 'squeak', Meng Jian looked back, Zhou Yan turned over in a deep sleep, and did not wake up, so Meng Jian got out of the open door.
As soon as he got out of the room, Meng Jian noticed something that was not quite right......
The light shining through the staircase indicated that the lights in the hall on the first floor had been turned on, and the lights in the hall on the first floor, like the lights in the bedrooms, were squeaking on and off.
Meng Wei didn't feel anything about the flickering lights on and off, and when he used his ghost clone to scare others, he often made the lights like this to create a terrifying effect. Although the mission system is powerful, creating a terrifying atmosphere to scare the executor of the task is nothing more than these bridges.
Meng Jian went down the stairs lightly, and at this moment, he found that a small black shadow suddenly rushed to the room next to the hall on the first floor, he was sleeping on the bed just now, and the footsteps he heard seemed to be from this small black shadow.
Meng Jian came to the hall on the first floor and walked to the door of the room next to the hall. He remembered checking his room before he went to sleep, the door was closed, and now it was obvious that something had opened it.
This room is a utility room, Meng Jian and Zhou Yan have entered it during the day, and there are only some old furniture piled up in it, and there is nothing special. Because of this, Meng Jian did not clean up the dust in this room.
But since this dark shadow has entered this room, it means that there must be something wrong in this utility room.
Meng Jian pushed open the door of the utility room and walked in, the electric light in the utility room was broken, not on at all, Meng Jian took the flashlight of the mobile phone to check it around, and then shone it on the floor of the room.
There are some footprints on the dusty ground of the room, but it can be seen that there are only footprints of Meng Jian and Zhou Yan, and there are no footprints of anything else.
Nothing else in the utility room was out of the ordinary, and in the end, there was a large cabinet by the wall. The door of the large cabinet is closed, and if there is any place to hide something in the utility room, it is the only one left.
This is naturally a very common scene in various horror movies, in horror movies such as curses, those very scary female ghosts like to hide in the big cabinet to scare people, or pull the person who opens the cabinet door in.
Meng Jian came to the cabinet door, stood and took a deep breath, then reached out and opened the cabinet door suddenly...... (To be continued......)
