Chapter 21: Asking for help
The lights in the room stabilized, and it was a mess as far as the eye could see, especially the entrance, where the plasma splattered by the female ghost when she transformed into a crawling form was almost unforgiving to the entire area.
Now that the female ghost is gone, why is the blood still there? This is very unscientific.
"What the hell?" Anne asked.
A few people around Yi Annie looked at Yi Annie silently.
"It's your bracelet," Polly pointed to the jade bracelet on Iannie's left wrist, "your bracelet flashes white, ghost...... Noah's mother was gone. β
Yi Annie glanced at the bracelet on her wrist, which her mother had put on her before she went abroad, it was beautiful and atmospheric, and it also particularly flattered her skin color, so she had been wearing it.
Wang Yuxin didn't see the white light, but heard Yi Annie screaming, and by the time she rushed back to the living room with a pickaxe, the female ghost was gone.
Hearing Polly say this, Wang Yuxin grabbed Yi Annie's hand and stared at her bracelet tightly: "This bracelet can also exorcise ghosts?" β
Anne withdrew her hand and walked straight to Inferno: "What happened just now?" You let the ghost get me? β
Inferno looked up at Yi Anne and shook her head slightly, barely visible, as if she was disdainful of shaking her head, or mocking Yi Anne's speculation.
"Because I didn't meet the conditions to make a move."
Inferno's eyes turned to Noah: "I can get rid of that ghost, and it's the kind of complete elimination that has no aftermath at all, the kind that can't go to heaven or hell, do you want me to do it?" β
Noah nodded at first, and then suddenly realized something: "What about my dad and grandparents, and the little boy Tom?" β
"That's none of my business."
"Are they still alive now? Where do I go to find them? Where the hell is my mother's body? What is Mother going to do when she comes back? As soon as Noah opened his mouth, he felt that there were countless questions in his heart.
Inferno shook his head again, this time a little wider.
"All I can do now is get rid of that ghost. I can tell you that the ghost is here to ask for help, and the one who can help him here is me, and the other is ......"
As he spoke, Inferno's gaze looked at Anne.
"Me?" Anne pointed uncertainly, "I don't know anything about it, except for the knowledge that seems useless in horror movies." β
"Again," Inferno curled his lips and looked at Noah again, "do you want me to get rid of that ghost?" β
Noah shook his head this time: "Thank you, but I need to find the missing person and bury my mother's body." β
"Okay, that's none of my business." Inferno picked up his coat on the sofa, "I'll send the bill to this address." β
With that, he walked straight to the back door of the house, and went out from thereβafter all, there was blood spilled near the front door, and it would cost him a pair of shoes to walk from that side.
After a while, the sound of a car starting outside the house was heard, and the Bentley left without any delay.
The remaining four people in the room looked at each other.
"He has to take money for nothing?" Wang Yuxin gritted her teeth in anger.
"He's at least come to see it, which means he can kill that ghost......" Yi Annie also had a complicated expression.
"Uh...... We're gone too? Wang Yuxin looked outside the window at the sound of the rain and proposed to run away, she had no other expectations for the hell. And on second thought, if the ghosts are all so disgusting, it would be too stomach-wrenching.
"No! You can't go! Polly stopped the two, "At least Anne can't go!" β
Noah also said, "Don't go, I beg you, help me, and my mother." β
Noah had been crying for a long time before, but now his throat was hoarse, and he couldn't speak.
"But I really don't know anything." Yi Annie is also very helpless, not only helpless, but also panicked now.
Yi Annie's wish has come true, and now she is thinking about whether to go directly to the company tomorrow to resign and then buy a ticket to cover it and run away.
Looking at the haggard Noah in front of her, Yi Annie was also very helpless. Thinking about Wang Yuxin, she even brought a sleeping bag, did she plan that the two of them would spend the night outside? Do you want to take it as a comfort and accompany Noah for a night? I'll go back to Summer City tomorrow morning.
In addition, the rainy night that will bring Noah's mother home is also terrifying, making her not want to walk this night.
Wang Yuxin looked at Yi Annie's face, and guessed that she was probably soft-hearted, and hurriedly pulled the person aside: "Annie, you are crazy, don't die!" Don't die! Don't die! Now that the exorcists who saved their lives are gone, we are here to find death! β
"But...... Inferno said that the ghost had only come to ask for help, and that the ghost had killed a few missing people. β
"No way!" Wang Yuxin said firmly, "Come with me now!" β
After saying that, he ignored Noah and Polly and began to pack up the equipment he brought. Stuffing everything into his backpack hastily, he didn't have time to check the camera that was pushed down by Anne and used to smash ghosts, and then pulled Anne out the back door as well.
"Ugh." Stuffed into the driver's seat by Wang Yuxin, Yi Annie looked at the remaining two people in the house who were standing in front of the window and watching them, and didn't know what to say, so she finally started the car, turned on the navigation, and went home.
On the way back, the rain was still falling, the highway was pitch black, there was no street lamp, and the view was only a small piece of the headlights. Anne drove less at night, and it was still raining, so Anne drove 80 comfortably on the road with a speed limit of 100, and the car moved in the dark, as if it would never be able to drive out of this darkness.
"Why don't you have a car on the road, it's terrible to drive a car on a rainy night." Anne muttered.
In this case, Anne prefers to find a car to drive with her, so that she will not be so worried about not being able to see the road ahead.
Wang Yuxin agreed, and she also complained about the fact that there are no street lights on foreign highways. But on the other hand, the traffic flow here is really small, and installing street lights is called a waste of resources.
In order to distract Yi Annie's nervousness, Wang Yuxin kept talking to her.
"Actually, at first I thought the ghost was here to catch alternately...... After all, it's likely to be a water ghost, but it doesn't feel like it when you look at it. Wang Yuxin tried to analyze this ghost with the knowledge gained from horror movies.
"It actually looks quite like a gamma coconut, which is also a bone-twisted variety." Yi Annie also replied without a match.
"Was Gacoco killed by her husband, or was it because her husband was under the influence of his dead child, Toshio?"
"But Toshio was actually killed by his father, and that cat ......"
"Hey, did that cat become a ghost or did he stay in the house and guard those ghosts?"
"I really haven't thought about it, go back and turn out a few "Curses" and watch them together?"
"Not tonight, today's stimulation is enough. Speaking of which, I feel that the logic of several "Curses" is a bit problematic, and it can indeed be sorted out, and I will write a movie review by the way. β
Yi Annie nodded: "Netflix will release the episode of "The Grudge" next month, and before that, summarize the first few parts, the popularity is estimated to be quite large." β
"Even if he becomes a ghost in "Curse", Gacoko is protecting his ghost child Toshio." Wang Yuxin suddenly said, "I believe that Noah's mother may not have any ill will towards her family, but we are outsiders after all. So I pulled you away, and I actually felt sorry for Noah, but ......"
Yi Annie continued to nod: "I know that you are for my good, but I feel that the female ghosts of ancient and modern China and foreign countries are more individual. β
"Yes," Wang Yuxin finally pulled the topic away, but since she brought it up again, thinking about the scene where she vomited in the dark before, she began to feel uncomfortable again.
She picked up the mineral water plugged in the car door, took two sips and continued: "Looking at it this way, female ghosts basically have tragic causes of death. Noah,, he should have died from his injuries in a car accident...... And I don't know if it took many days to die. β
"So, if it weren't for the cliff where her car fell was too steep, if there had been no winter storm during that time, maybe someone would have been able to save her." Anne was even more depressed.
Wang Yuxin shook his head silently: "You also saw the injury, even if you come back, it is estimated that it will be crippled, and it will be even more difficult after being rescued." β
"Ughβ" both sighed in unison.
The car entered a large curve with no end in sight, and Anne continued to slow down.
Wang Yuxin saw that the car in the distance was flashing, so she asked Yi Annie to pay attention to see if there was a problem in the road ahead or the person needed help.
In remote places at night, it is not easy to see a car on the highway, and people here will habitually go over to see if there is anything they need help when they encounter these situations.
The speed of the car slowly slowed down, and Wang Yuxin recognized the car: "Hey, Bentley, rich man." β
"Huh? Bentley? Anne repeated the brand of the car, "It won't be ......"
"It's really the exorcist......" After seeing the appearance of the car clearly, Wang Yuxin suddenly felt that it was a bad decision to stop the car.
Even in the rain, Inferno still had that cold face, and even if he had a hat, he didn't wear his coat, and stood on the side of the road in the rain.
Seeing Yi Annie's car parked behind his car, he walked over and knocked on Yi Annie's car window.
Yi Annie looked at Wang Yuxin, locked the car door first, and then pulled down the window a little.
"What's the matter?"
"Someone wants to take a ride, my car can't sit down, there is no one behind your car, just right."
Hearing this, Wang Yuxin tried to take a look around. It was pitch black, and there were no hitchhikers in sight.
Yi Annie also didn't know: "Where is anyone?" Where are you going? β
"Don't ask, just follow my car." Inferno waved his hand.
"Wait, how do you know we didn't spend the night at Noah's house?" Anne had the feeling that Inferno's car was parked here to wait for her.
