Chapter 214: The Ghost Lingers
Sitting at the table next to him was a couple in their thirties and forties, and the two of them were bored waiting for the food to be served, so they casually found a topic to talk about.
Among them are several homicides that have occurred in the city.
Regarding this case, it was also a reporter who secretly gave benefits to the police, so a bombshell news obtained, which was just exposed not long ago, can be said to be the hottest topic in the city at the moment.
"It sounds scary, a husband and wife for a hundred days, no matter what there is, it won't kill people, and it's still a dehumanizing practice such as dismembering corpses, cooking corpses and skinning them alive."
After the woman finished speaking with some fear, the man smiled and teased:
"Looks like I really want to thank you for all these years of not killing. Otherwise, if I sleep so dead, you casually stab me in the neck, and I will be completely finished. ”
"Go up, but if I let me know that you're doing bad things behind my back, I won't be able to run away from you."
The two of them were muttering and chatting, and Luo Qiu also took out his mobile phone after hearing it, and tried to search for local news.
After connecting to the hotel's wireless network, he quickly found a report on a series of killings in the city.
According to the report, there have been seven murders in the city recently, all of which happened to couples or couples, and either the man killed the woman in a cruel way, or the woman killed the man in turn.
And the methods are extremely cruel, they are all inhumane and bloody methods.
Not only that, but those who were caught by the police for murder, or who voluntarily surrendered, also died mysteriously in the detention center or in their own homes within a few days.
"This time the ghost thing is a bit interesting, it actually picks a couple to start, doesn't that mean that I and that guy are both gentlemen, so there won't be any danger?"
Luo Qiu felt that the people who killed people in the city before should be the ghosts they had to deal with, but in the past, ghosts killed people indiscriminately, it was completely to see who was unhappy to kill whom, and who was unlucky to kill whom, but like this, they had never met anyone who only picked on couples or couples.
Putting the phone back in his pocket, Luo Qiu didn't think about it for the time being, and planned to wait for the guy to wake up.
Like a starving ghost reincarnated, a large bowl of pho was wiped out, and Luo Qiu was about to spit it out and walked out, although the taste of this thing is generally very bad, but the amount is still good.
I want to walk around the neighborhood to digest and digest, and I plan to go upstairs after a while to wake up the handsome little white-faced guy.
In the demon area, a young couple is walking one after the other.
The woman's face was slightly displeased, and she kept urging the young man behind her impatiently and said:
"I said Brother Wang, can you go faster, you see that even the old lady in front of you is gone."
"No, I really can't walk anymore, let's find a place to rest for a while, I feel tired from just now."
This man and woman were none other than the two people Luo Qiu had seen in the radio room before.
"You're really disappointed, you said you would come to play with me, not only did you lose me, but now you are still doing this and that."
After the woman finished dissatisfied, she looked around, and then saw a virtual imaging area. So he said to his boyfriend:
"Let's go there, you see a place to sit down, and I'll play by myself."
The young man nodded without objection, and the two of them walked in.
This place, called the "Virtual Imaging Zone", is simply a virtual experience area, where some machines are placed, and when you sit in it and wear glasses, you will have a sense of immersion, that is, VR technology.
Although there are not many people inside, it is not small, and after the girl in the short skirt went to line up, his boyfriend was tired and panting and found a bench to sit down.
"It's weird, I haven't been doing anything lately, how can I be so tired."
The man surnamed Wang couldn't help but start to find the reason for his body, in fact, his usual life is indeed very irregular, sleeping late, getting up late, occasionally staying up all night, and tossing and tossing with his girlfriend about a few girls behind his back.
But recently, because his father confiscated his bank card, he is much more honest.
But no matter how tired you are, you won't be so tired that you have to take a break after walking a few steps, and your body is as heavy as carrying a person on your back.
"Look at those two people, they are not ashamed."
"I guess it's only been a long time since I got to the subject."
"But is that woman wearing a grimace mask, it looks so scary."
Hearing the sound of constant discussion beside him, the man surnamed Wang couldn't help but look sideways, and saw that it was the two couples sitting on the far right end of the bench who were talking, and the situation was the same as him, and they came in to rest when they were tired.
Seeing him look over, the two of them stopped talking and turned their heads to the side.
"Who?"
The man surnamed Wang didn't know who the two people were talking about, because there was an old lady and a man in his twenties and thirties sitting next to him, and to the right was the couple, and there was no one else but them.
But looking at the two people next to him, it was clear that they were a mother and son, and the son took his mother in for a walk.
"What two fools!"
The man surnamed Wang cursed in his heart, but this incident gave him a reminder, because he had heard similar words more than once along the way.
And the probability of attracting attention is almost 100%, there are always some people pointing at him, not knowing what they are talking about.
He didn't know if he had rubbed something on his body, or if he had accidentally got something on his face.
Seeing that his girlfriend was still queuing for a while, he happened to have a desire to urinate at this time, so he planned to go out to find a toilet for convenience, and by the way, tidy up his clothes to see what was wrong with him.
Without saying hello to his girlfriend, he went straight out of the VR experience area, because the bathroom was opposite, not a few steps away, so he walked in directly after he came out.
The bathroom was very deserted, and there was not even a person, which also confused him somewhat. But he didn't think much of it, and when he was done, he went to the mirror, trying to tidy up his clothes and hair, but it almost didn't scare him half to death.
Because he saw two people in the mirror!
One of them is him, and the other is ...... The head is on his shoulders.
Or, to put it more accurately, the man was lying on his back, a woman in a white dress with an ugly face, as if she had been burned by boiling water.
But the man surnamed Wang was completely impressed, and he didn't remember when there was an extra person on his body.
"Who the are you, get me down!"
The man surnamed Wang was frightened, so he turned back and tried to pull the woman who was still lying on his back, but when he turned his hand behind his back, he found that he had not touched anyone at all.
He caught it several times in a row, but each time his hand fell on his own back.
There was no one on his back at all, because he couldn't touch it at all.
But in the mirror, the woman in the white dress was still lying on it intact.
No, is that really a person?
Thinking of this, the man surnamed Wang suddenly felt that the whole back was bubbling out, he screamed, and hurriedly escaped from the bathroom.
His body was still heavy, and he didn't feel anything when he didn't see the woman in the white dress before, but now, he was more and more convinced that the reason why he was so tired was because he was always carrying a ghost on his back!
They were crazy and shouted in the crowd, but the tourists ran away like crazy.
The man surnamed Wang rushed all the way into the VR experience area, and at this time, he happened to be lined up with his girlfriend and sat in the experience machine to experience.
"Tongtong, don't play yet! I'm bumping into the ghost!"
"Are you sick, did you forget to take medicine when you went out, what do you say?"
The man's words surnamed Wang not only did not arouse his girlfriend's concern, but was ruthlessly said.
"I really didn't lie to you, I just went to the toilet and found out that I was carrying a woman on my back! But I couldn't catch it at all, but I could feel his weight. ”
"Don't talk nonsense, and you're not afraid of being laughed at."
The girl still didn't believe it.
"If you don't believe it, you can ask them, they should all be able to see it, am I carrying a woman in a white dress?"
The man surnamed Wang turned around and asked the tourists who were lining up behind Tongtong.
The tourists shook their heads blankly, as if looking at a neurotic, and they all subconsciously distanced themselves from him.
"How could you not see it! Someone was able to see it before!"
As he spoke, the man surnamed Wang suddenly remembered the couple who were sitting on the bench just now, but when he turned around to look for them, he found that the two people were gone.
"Forget it! It's a disappointment to stop playing!"
Tongtong was so stirred up by the man surnamed Wang, he felt that he was very faceless, and suddenly lost the interest of staying any longer, and coldly left a sentence, then pushed away the man surnamed Wang who was blocking in front of him, and then left without looking back.
……
After Luo Qiu wandered around boringly outside for a few laps, he returned to the restaurant, and when he pushed open the door of the room and came in, he found that this handsome guy didn't know when he had gotten up, and was lying in front of the window quietly watching the crowd below.
"You're awake, you seem to be in good spirits.
I just went down to eat something, if you're hungry, go get some food, and let me sleep for a while. ”
"I was woken up by a scream."
Luo Qiu yawned, and was just about to sit on the bed when this guy turned his head and said a word, which suddenly made him sober up a lot.
"Have you been there?"
Luo Qiu didn't have the heart to sleep, if this guy really heard the screams just now, it means that the ghost thing was in this restaurant just now.
"I was waiting for you to come back, so I didn't go to see it."
This young man's words surprised Luo Qiu a little, because in the past, when this kind of thing happened, almost everyone would act on their own, like this, they were only familiar with each other for a day, and they could wait so carefully, not attracted by other things but stayed in the room and did not move, obviously no longer as ordinary as the usual one to concentrate on being a lone ranger.
"When it happened, we'll go over and see now."
"About five minutes ago."
Hearing this handsome guy's answer, Luo Qiu nodded symbolically, then touched the spiritual apparatus he was carrying, and walked out of the room with this person one after another.
"By the way, I haven't asked for your name yet, my surname is Luo, and my single name is an autumn character."
Hearing Luo Qiu say this, the thing was silent for a while, and only after a long time did he say, "You can just call me Amer, my name is just a nickname, and I have already thought that I have died once since I entered this inexplicable and strange incident." ”
