Chapter 742: You look so desperately gregarious, you look very lonely
Qu Changlin has been working in a haunted house for three years, and he never imagined that there would be such a day.
There were only a few centimeters between that face and him, and he could clearly see everything on that face, including the slightly upturned corners of the mouth, the sparse stubble, and the eyes that exuded coldness all the time.
"My boss wants to see you."
The other party's lips opened and closed up and down, as if he was talking, but Qu Changlin felt that he couldn't hear the sound, maybe the nerves that transmitted the sound had stopped working, or maybe his brain had lost all its functions.
These are no longer important, Qu Changlin didn't even think about why there was a person hanging upside down behind him.
His heart only returned to normal after two seconds, blood rushed to his brain in an instant, and as his body gradually regained control, Qu Changlin made a reaction that a normal person would have.
"Who's there!"
His vocal cords trembled, Qu Changlin slammed his head into the door panel in front of him, the thin mirror was pushed open, and he wanted to run out, but the door of the fourth compartment was closed.
Trapped in a small space, Qu Changlin's back was against the door of the compartment, his eyes were fixed on the secret room where he was hiding, and there was nothing in the dark and narrow secret room.
Covering his chest, Qu Changlin could be sure that he saw a person just now, he was hanging upside down behind him!
"Where did he go?"
The scene that happened just now has become Qu Changlin's psychological shadow, if he doesn't figure it out, he probably won't dare to stay alone in a confined and dark space again in his life.
The air conditioner was on in the haunted house, and the temperature was very low, but there was sweat constantly coming out of Qu Changlin's forehead.
"The compartment door is closed, and the man should still be here."
Blessings are incomparable, and disasters are not singular.
While Qu Changlin was thinking about this very serious question, the door of the cubicle behind him was suddenly knocked on.
The knock on the door seemed to be a life-threatening note, maintaining a special rhythm, one by one, one by one, as if it was directly through the chest and knocked on Qu Changlin's heart.
He tried to move, but his calves didn't listen, his feet were too weak to support his body, and he slowly sat down against the door of the compartment.
It was too sudden, the situation changed in an instant, and before he could understand what was going on, the person had already fallen.
There was an extra person in the dark room, and he wanted to run outside, but the door of the compartment was closed, and there was no way out, and Qu Changlin found that he was unconsciously forced into a desperate situation.
He kicked his legs on the ground, and he struggled to get up: "If it's a tourist knocking on the door outside the compartment, then who is the person I just saw?" ”
Qu Changlin pressed his back against the door of the house, and he put his hand in his pocket, trying to find his mobile phone and report the situation here to the boss.
But as soon as he dialed the phone, before he could speak, he heard a completely unfamiliar voice: "It's useless to hide, he will follow you home, hide in your shadow, lie on your windowsill, and get into your quilt......"
The sound came from outside the door, and the knocker was standing on the other side of the door.
The other party didn't deliberately scare Qu Changlin in a very exaggerated tone, and the person's voice was very flat, as if he was telling a fact.
Qu Changlin covered his mouth, the phone had been connected, but he didn't dare to speak.
He could feel a cold gaze watching him, he didn't dare to look back, he didn't dare to move, his body seemed to be frozen.
"What should I do now?"
……
Chen Ge was lying on the baffle of the fifth compartment, looking down at Qu Changlin curled up in a ball from above, his eyes were full of appreciation.
"You can stay in a smelly toilet for so long without wearing a mask, and this person is above 80 points in terms of professional ethics and professional skills."
Holding the partition with one hand, Chen Ge grabbed the model of the corpse hanging upside down from the ceiling with the other, shaking it constantly.
The knock on the door that Qu Changlin heard was actually the sound of the puppet's head hitting the door.
The regular banging on the door is of course different from the sound of knocking on the door with your hand.
Without the other party's complete knowledge, Chen Ge conducted a one-sided simple test on him.
"Strong ability and dedication, but I don't know what his character is."
While Chen Ge was thinking, Lao Zhou quietly appeared behind him, holding a thick manual on human body structure in his hand.
"What is this?"
Flipping through the manual, there are hand-drawn drawings of dolls, in a variety of styles and styles.
"It is implied that there is a spare red lamp in the haunted house, this manual was found under the lamp, and he doesn't seem to want people to see it."
Lao Zhou and Chen Ge have been together for a long time, and he knows his boss very well, so he sometimes behaves very caringly.
After listening to Lao Zhou's words, Chen Ge made up a picture in his mind, Qu Changlin painted a ghost costume, hiding alone in the toilet where tourists rarely come in, bored with the help of the light of the red table lamp, he taught himself a lot of knowledge about dolls.
The first half of the manual is Qu Changlin's own drawings and notes on the human body, and the second half is more like his own diary.
"On September 1st, there are fewer and fewer tourists coming to the haunted house every day, and I can hear people walking by the door, but no one comes in, so sad."
"On September 3rd, I improved the dolls in the toilet, and each puppet only costs an extra 50 yuan, which can bring a more realistic feeling to visitors! People will definitely treat me differently! ”
"On September 4th, the cold rain slapped indiscriminately on my face, and the boss did not agree to my renovation plan. Forget it, the haunted house is in a recession, and he is quite sad. ”
"On September 15th, today I finally had a tourist go into the toilet to play! Let me think about how to scare him! Aha! ”
On September 30, Fluttershy says that she wants to focus on her career for the time being, and that she doesn't want to fall in love, and it seems that I have to work harder.
"On October 15th, why do they always call me a boring person? I've done a lot of things I don't like to be so special, so why do they still think I'm a weirdo? ”
"On October 30th, it turns out that Fluttershy likes him."
"November 1st, the beginning of a new month, I want to be a fun and gregarious person, come on! You can do it! ”
There are many similar short diaries in the manual, each of which is optimistic, but Chen Ge can see a strong bitterness in it.
He put down the manual and scanned his gaze to the words on the wall of the fifth compartment.
Different from the third ward, the words in this place are handwritten by the employees themselves, the toilet is the scene that Qu Changlin is responsible for, and the words on the walls are written by him.
The strange talk in the toilet is about a kid named Kobayashi who is hated by everyone because he likes to play pranks, and in the end everyone decides to play tricks on him together.
It's a very simple plot, but it reflects Qu Changlin himself.
The Xiaolin in the story should be himself.
"Not all fish live in the same ocean, so why force it?"
Chen Ge thought about it, and didn't tease Qu Changlin again, he asked Lao Zhou to return the manual, and he opened the door of the fourth compartment.
