Chapter 203: The Invisible Door
The girl, Yao Yu, kept an eye on the place around the chandelier and said that there was a door there.
It's just that anyone with a pair of eyes can see it, and it's obviously nothing.
"You, no, you're crazy? Or who to scare? The young man who had been at the front came to Yao Yu's side at this moment, stretched out his hand and shook it in front of her eyes, "What door?" ”
Yao Yu pushed his hand away and walked to the center of the chandelier, his steps were very slow, but his eyes became more and more obsessed.
The rest laughed at her as a joke.
Only Du Youlan looked at the girl seriously, watching her walk step by step towards the "door" she said.
Finally, the girl walked under the chandelier.
The young man came to her and said, "Alright, don't pretend!" Can there be a fart door......" said, patting his hand on Yao Yu's shoulder, but he didn't touch it, and the moment his hand fell, Yao Yu disappeared!
Disappear into thin air! Suddenly gone!
In an instant, everyone fell silent.
They looked at the center of the chandelier, which was empty, as if no one had ever walked in it, if it hadn't been for what they had seen with their own eyes a few seconds ago.
It was silent for a few seconds, and then, with a scream, everyone scattered and fled, leaving only Du Youlan standing in place. She looked at the circle of chandeliers and finally decided to walk there. But as soon as I took a step, I walked out and said, "Wait......"
"Huh?" She looked up at me, "Sure enough, it's you." ”
"She's just gone, maybe in danger."
"Not necessarily, you should have been here for a while before, didn't you disappear?" She didn't listen to me and insisted on going there.
But it is true that as Du Youlan said, there is no abnormality.
Then it's strange why the girl disappeared out of thin air.
Du Youlan's eyes looked around curiously, but she asked me, "Didn't you ask me to investigate, why did you come here yourself?" ”
"It's a long story, but it's an accident. What about you, how did you find out? "I came to her.
"It's also long. Since the Eternal Life Hall is here, there will be at least some legends, but those legends may not seem to be related to it at first glance. So at first, the clues were cluttered, and I didn't have a clue. Then I thought that the word eternal life is at least related to life and death, so I started the investigation from life and death. I found out that there had been a series of strange 'suicides' in the city, which were more like hoaxes, and the first few people claimed to be going to end their lives, disappeared for a while, and their families reported the crimes, but then they all came back in good health. In the city, there have been seven times in the last year or two. Or rather, it is known seven times. ”
I stood where the girl had disappeared, looking up at the lamp, and responding to Du Youlan's words: "It's a bit strange that so many suicide pranks have been played, but it doesn't seem strange enough to have any connection with the Eternal Life Pavilion. ”
"Listen to me. Suicide hoaxes, really, are nothing, at most a matter of frequency, it just seems that there are too many stupid people gathered in this city. But these suicides have two things in common. ”
"What?" I asked.
"First, before they committed suicide, they did not live happily, and life does seem to be a burden to them."
"That is, they do have a reason to commit suicide?"
"It can be understood that way."
"And the second?" I continued to ask.
Du Youlan's answer was only two words: "Transshipment." ”
"Transshipment?"
"Yes, it looks like a transshipment, but in fact they are not just lucky, but they have really become excellent and outstanding in all aspects. For example, there was a suicide man, a 35-year-old unmarried, less than 1.6 meters tall, weighing more than 100 kilograms, living in a rental house, which may be less than 20 square meters in size. There is no job, and the source of income is parents. This person has no love, no career, but a lot of relatives and friends who seem to be very good. The most he does every day is to lie in bed. He felt that he was a waste, that his life was bleak, and that there was no hope in this life. ”
"Why do I think this is really a piece of rubbish?" I turned my head to look at Du Youlan.
"It's not the time to complain. The point is, he was one of those "suicides." That was about a year ago, he committed suicide, then came back unharmed, received a police education, and returned home. But since then, he seems to have changed as a person, first losing weight, and in half a year, he has lost forty kilograms. At the same time of losing weight, he was also studying day and night, picking up his former major, and he was also working part-time during this period, and later found a full-time job corresponding to his former major, and came up with a planning plan for the company, and was promoted after making a lot of money. All in all, everything went smoothly. ”
I was still looking at the lamps, sniffing the neighborhood carefully, and replied faintly, "I don't think it's a prank." Did he kill himself, kill the original waste, and be reborn? ”
"Hehe, you seem to be a little obsessed with this, why, you also want to be reborn? But you see, the difference with waste seems to be quite big. ”
"So after that, what did you find, what did those people do just now?" I continued to ask.
"I started to check the information of those people, and it happened that the hero of the story I told you just now, mentioned the word Eternal Life Hall in the 'suicide note' he left before, and I found it here. However, there are not many people who call this the Eternal Life Hall, and most of them call it a suicide holy place. It is said that suicide here will give you a new lease of life. That's what those people just came for, but it seems that except for the girl who disappeared, everything else is just for fun. ”
"That's a little weird......"
"What's weird?" Du Youlan asked.
"I suddenly started to wonder why someone would kill themselves. I could see some sadness on the girl's face as she vanished, and she might really want to die. But the rumor sounded like the people who came here didn't really die. So, does she want to kill herself? Those people are the same, obviously they came for the legend, but they really saw strange things, but they were scared to run away in the first place, so why did they come? ”
"Your question, it doesn't seem to be related to the topic."
"No, it's a little bit related."
"Oh?" Du Youlan looked at me curiously.
"You and I, and those people just now, they can't see the so-called 'door', but the girl who disappeared can, why?" As I spoke, I turned to look at Su Zi, who had been silent for a long time.
She hurriedly shook her head, "No, no, I don't know, don't look at me." ”
"I'm asking you, can you see that door?"
Su Zi continued to shake her head, "I can't see it, there's nothing." ”
So, I turned my gaze back to Du Youlan, "So you see, we can't see each other, why can't she?" What is the difference between us and that girl? ”
"She wants to die, and we don't."
"Yes, I want to die, that's the ticket here. So, don't you think this place is more interesting? If it really is the Eternal Life Pavilion, then the people who come here, called the Eternal Life Pavilion, want to give up their lives. What exactly do they want to give up, and what is eternal life? ”
