Chapter 536: Vigil
"It's really weird, let's go upstairs. Gu Chengan replied to Roger, then turned around and walked to the stairs.
When Roger and Gu Chengan returned to the bedroom on the second floor of the house, Meng Confucius, Song Jianguo and Li Luo had already fallen asleep in their respective beds.
"Are you asleep?" Roger asked the three in the bedroom.
"Nope. Song Jianguo replied to Roger.
"Did you hear the howl of the beasts outside just now?" Roger walked to the open window and looked out, then asked Song Jianguo again.
"Nope. Song Jianguo replied to Roger.
"Hey, don't run!" Roger suddenly shouted outside.
"What's wrong?" Gu Chengan, who returned to the bedroom with Roger, hurriedly walked over and asked Roger.
"I ...... I just saw a little kid and he was standing there looking at me...... But in a blink of an eye...... He's gone again. Roger replied to Gu Chengan, and now he obviously no longer doubted what Gu Chengan had seen about the child just now.
"What does he look like, what clothes does he wear?" Gu Chengan hurriedly asked Roger.
"It's like...... It's very white, the circles under the eyes are very dark, and you're wearing white clothes, right? It looks ......" Roger shivered...... The kid outside the window just now, this one looks like a ghost baby!
"Same as I saw. Gu Chengan nodded.
"What are you talking about?" Song Jianguo asked Roger and the others.
"This place may be haunted. Roger replied to Song Jianguo.
"Haunted, don't talk nonsense in the middle of the night, it's scary to death!" Song Jianguo immediately reprimanded Gu Chengan. It seems that he is not only lewd, but also cowardly.
"Haunted? Meng Jian laughed.
"What's the point?" Gu Chengan asked Meng Conversion, I heard that this kind of thing is too late for others!
"It's like...... I've been dealing with ghosts before. Meng Jian pondered for a while and spoke.
"Dealing with ghosts...... You can do it. Song Jianguo wrapped the quilt tightly on his body. coldly sarcastic Meng Conversion, now because Meng Condus has a gun in his hand, although he is very unhappy with Meng Conversion, he does not dare to scold directly.
Although the photos found on the boat showed that the relationship between Song Jianguo and Meng Jian seemed to be very close, Song Jianguo himself had a faint feeling that he hated Meng Jian very much, and instinctively hated it from the bottom of his heart.
"Do you think something is strange?" Meng Jian ignored Song Jianguo's sarcasm, but brought it up to the others.
"What's so strange?" said Roger, lighting another cigarette and inhaling it in his mouth. Standing at the window, he replied to Meng Qian.
"It's that we all have amnesia, but we still know that ghosts are terrible, so why aren't our memories completely lost? But I didn't forget what a ghost is or something?" Meng Jian thought for a moment and asked this somewhat awkward question.
"Some of these memories are thing-based memories, some are common-sense memories, and they should be managed in different memory areas of the brain, right? It was Song Jianguo, who was very unhappy with Meng Conversion, who answered Meng Conversion's question...... He didn't know why he was answering Meng Conversion's question. Anyway...... After Meng Jian asked, he immediately had the answer in his heart. So he said it.
It feels ...... Just as he had studied this before.
"What Lao Song said makes sense. Roger nodded, an expression of confusion.
"Song Jianguo, you're engaged in biomedical research, right?" Meng Jian asked Song Jianguo.
"Hmph!" Song Jianguo suddenly felt that he was a little faceless for answering Meng Conversion's question so actively just now, and at this time he deliberately used a 'hum' to show his displeasure with Meng Conversion.
"Brother Gu should be an expert in mechanics?" Meng Jian continued.
"Brother Meng, what about yourself?" Gu Cheng'an saw that Meng Jian called him Brother Gu, and felt very useful, so he also replied to Meng Jian with a brother.
"I ...... It could be a ghost catcher...... Or...... It's a study of supernatural phenomena, right?" Meng Jian speculated.
"What about me?" said Roger as he spat out a smoke ring out the window and looked back at Meng Conversion.
"Brother Luo, you...... Should be...... Security personnel. Meng replied to Roger.
"Damn, you are all experts, I'm just a security guard?" Roger had an unhappy expression, but he looked back and thought about it carefully, but he felt that Meng Conversion's judgment was all reasonable. For a moment, he was a little unable to refute.
"What about me, Brother Meng, what do you think I used to do?" Li Luo obviously didn't sleep either. After hearing this topic, I couldn't help but interject.
"You...... Tourists, sneaking into the boat to play, only to be stranded here?" Meng Jian replied to Li Luo with a smile...... In fact, his judgment in his heart on Li Luo was that he might be a handyman, and it was not easy to say it, so he said nonsense.
"What about the three women, Xiao Meng, what do you think they used to do?" Roger asked Meng again with a calm face. Since he felt that Meng Conversion's inference had some truth, he also wanted to hear Meng Condus say it, and then he could judge the current situation in his heart.
"Two young ...... Lin Bingxuan may be a secretary or something, right? Shen Jiayi should be an intern, a researcher, or something? As for Shu Ya...... It's a bit like a company executive, a female boss or something like that, I can't say the specifics, and it's just my inference, not necessarily accurate. Meng Jian shook his head.
"It seems that Xiao Meng, you already have some ideas in your heart about why we people are gathered here?" Gu Chengji asked Meng Qian.
"A mechanic, a biologist, a ghost hunter, a security guard, a female boss, a secretary, a researcher or something...... Why do you think these people are here?" Meng Jian did not directly answer Roger's question.
Hearing that Meng Jian really regarded him as a security guard, Roger's face became even more ugly, but fortunately, no one else could see it when it was dark.
"Could it be that you have been tasked with searching for treasures on this island, or conducting research on some special phenomena?" Gu Chengan deduced on his own.
"Perhaps, it's just that there are no clues in this house, which is really difficult to judge. Meng Jian lay back on his bed and didn't say anything more.
"Sleep! I'm sleepy, I'll talk about it tomorrow. By the way, Lao Luo, don't smoke, Xun dead. Song Jianguo said to Roger.
"There are only the last two mouthfuls left. Roger turned around and smiled at Song Jianguo, took two puffs of the cigarette butt in his hand, put it out on the windowsill, and then returned to his bed and sat down, and after a while, he took off his clothes and lay on the bed.
"Lao Luo, is the door on the first floor closed?" Song Jianguo asked Roger.
"It's off. Roger replied to Song Jianguo.
"Do you want to arrange for people to take turns to keep vigil? How can you sleep like this?" Song Jianguo asked Roger again.
"Take turns keeping vigil?
"You're a security guard! You should be responsible for everyone's safety, you just have to be alone. Song Jianguo said loudly to Roger, obviously deeply dissatisfied with Roger for letting him keep vigil. Anyway, Song Jianguo faintly felt ...... He should have been a person of relatively high status before, or a very learned and respected person, so he naturally didn't need to worry about such a thing as a vigil.
"He said I'm a security guard, I'm a security guard?! I don't keep it! Whoever likes to guard it, who guards it!" Roger scolded in a shameless manner, and then went to sleep on his own.
Previously, Gu Chengan said that he was a leader or something, which made him very useful to listen to, but Meng Jian said that he was a security guard, and then he himself seemed to feel that he used to be a security guard, which made him feel very unhappy all the time, but he didn't expect Song Jianguo to mention this matter again, and the tone was like ordering his subordinates, which made him almost explode.
"I'll keep vigil, and any of you will change me in the second half of the night. The young man Li Luo took the initiative to bring it up, and took the battery flashlight that Gu Chengan brought back into his hand.
As a result, no one paid attention to Li Luo, as if everyone had fallen asleep.
Li Luo shook his head, he took off the spotlight shade on the battery flashlight, so that the flashlight became an electric light, and when something happened at night, he could turn on this flashlight to illuminate the room very brightly.
Of course, Li Luo also taught this method to the three women next door, and they could also use this battery lamp to illuminate the room after turning off the generator at night.
After no one spoke, the room became extremely quiet, and in a trance it seemed that the howls of some wild beasts could be heard from the mountains and forests in the distance, but if you listened closely, you could not really hear it.
Soon the room was full of snoring, and everyone was tired, and one by one they fell asleep.
Li Luo sat on his bed a little bored, although there was a moon on the island, there were many clouds in the sky, only a little moonlight came in through the window, and the room looked very dark.
At a certain moment, Li Luo suddenly felt that the window was also suddenly dark, as if a black shadow appeared by the window, he quickly raised his head and looked at the window, but he didn't see anything.
Maybe I'm in a trance?
After a while, Li Luo heard what seemed to be ...... There was a noise in the next room......
But when he listened closely, he heard nothing.
Do you want to keep vigil or not? These people, alas, Li Luo didn't know what to say.
I don't know how long it took, Li Luo's spirit was a little trance, and he lay on the bed unconsciously, and suddenly he remembered that he seemed to be keeping vigil, so he quickly shook his spirit and sat up.
Before you know it, it's past midnight. (To be continued......)
