Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Paper Man Tree
Ye Lechuan's words made my heart rise a little, and I couldn't help but be afraid for a while, fortunately he happened to be here today, otherwise I might have encountered an accident.
But it's really strange to say, why didn't you hurt me before, but it was the evil that Ye Lechuan came here to appear in the house.
I'm sure all of this could not have been accidental, and the little red paper figure must have been deliberately placed in my room.
It seems that someone is deliberately hiding some secret, and the five people who died must have something to do with it.
"By the way, the bloody handprint on the door!" On the first night of the accident, the bloody handprint appeared on the doorknob, and the next morning, the police suspected that the murder was responsible.
At the time, I didn't pay much attention to it, but now I think something was wrong with this bloody handprint.
What is the connection between the bloody handprints and the murder?
Ye Lichuan didn't know where to find a motorcycle, let me drive it, saying that I needed to take pictures,
Inconvenient to drive.
At night, on the asphalt road, he followed the clues captured in the camera to find the direction, and where the little red paper figure appeared, he instructed me to go.
Along the way, there are few pedestrians, many shopping malls and shops have closed their doors, even the street lights are broken a lot, the whole painting style is a little deserted, and the light is dim, changing the previous prosperous scene.
"What's going on?" I whispered silently, puzzled.
"No, some things can't be hidden, and the citizens have started to live in panic!" Ye Lechuan was directing my direction while patting around, but he was calm, not much surprised by the changes that had taken place in the city.
"You know what? No one has been able to cure the hundred-year-old evil cult that has appeared in this city recently, and it is very strange that they are not acting indiscriminately, but acting in unison as if they are under the command of something. ”
Ye Lichuan's emotions became a little excited, and he said in a deep voice: "Harmful things, one day I will make them all scattered." ”
......
Following the direction of the red paper figure in the camera, we came to a small restaurant, where we lost it.
Ye Lechuan was a little surprised, and he didn't understand how it suddenly disappeared, and he could still photograph this little paper figure in the camera just now, how it disappeared in an instant.
"It's here!" I'm a little surprised, isn't this restaurant Zhang Yunxi's, we came here by mistake.
Or maybe it wasn't by mistake, the little paper figure may have originated here, if this is the case, then Zhang Yunxi is very likely to have something to do with this matter.
"No way, how can it have anything to do with her!" I thought silently in my heart, that proprietress is a little arrogant, and she must be kind in her heart, otherwise how could she invite those homeless people to dinner for free every full moon night.
This pickled evil must have nothing to do with her!
After stopping, Yelichuan kept frowning and fell into thought, and after a moment, he came to the conclusion, "This evil may have appeared in the subway near here, I will go there alone, you stay here, you can't go, if you strayed into the lonely grave again, I can't save you." ”
I nodded, and I didn't think about going, the place I wanted to go was in Zhang Yunxi's restaurant.
I said a brief goodbye to Yelichuan and walked towards the restaurant.
Unlike in the past, his restaurant closed early, the lights at the door were turned off, and the door was closed tightly.
And if I want to go in, I have to knock on the door first, and knocking on her door this big night will not disturb her.
After hesitating for a moment, I decided to knock on the door and see her once, even if it was a few pleasantries.
From the first time I saw her, I felt déjà vu, like I had seen her somewhere, and the relationship was still very close and the relationship was very good. But she was a stranger, but somehow she made me feel that way.
Just as I was about to knock on his door, the door opened from the inside, but it was not Zhang Yunxi who opened the door, but a man.
Interestingly, the moment I saw this man, my heart was half cold, a man came to Zhang Yunxi's house at night, and he was not doing business, if the relationship was not close enough, it would not be reasonable.
The moment he saw me, he was a little surprised, then he smiled at me, politely gave way to me, and walked away.
Although he was polite, I noticed a cold light in his eyes.
And from his behavior just now, it can be seen that the relationship between him and Zhang Yunxi should not be close, otherwise I, a young man, came to her house, wouldn't this man be jealous first, and then ask Zhang Yunxi to ask him clearly.
"Wait!" I stopped him suddenly, not because of anything else, but because I had discovered a coincidence, this man seemed to me to have seen, he seemed to be the man I had passed when I entered the police station that day.
Last time, I heard that it was he who found the first dead body in the rental house, and that he was the same person as his colleague.
"What's wrong?" He looked at me quizzically.
"You dropped ten bucks!" I rambled casually.
But he believed, and really looked to the earth.
I took out ten dollars from my pocket, looked at his face carefully, and made sure that he was the one who rubbed shoulders with me the day before, "I picked it up and gave it to you." ”
He lowered his head, took the ten dollars I gave him, said thank you, and quickly left the place.
Zhang Yunxi, who was inside, heard the movement at the door, so he came over to see what was going on, but after seeing me at a glance, the faint smile on his face instantly froze, and he was about to close the door with a straight face.
I was a little stunned, the pestle was in place, am I so terrible, how can I see me like seeing a plague god.
"Hey, why are you so excited, I won't eat you again." I tapped the door with my right hand and shouted.
"Who made you unwilling to be my boyfriend and beat me, unforgivable!" Zhang Yunxi said angrily, as if he had suffered a lot of grievances.
"It's all said, that's a misunderstanding, I didn't mean to hit you, and besides, haven't you already fought back, the fight is not lighter than mine, and besides, who said I don't want to be your boyfriend, I'm still ...... I wish I could! "The further back I got, the quieter my voice became, and I became stuttering and a little unsure.
Why does this guy have to find me as a boyfriend, what the hell am I doing, and is this progressing a little too fast.
"Really?" While I was pondering, she suddenly opened the door, and with a smile on her face, her expression changed quite quickly.
Before I could react, she grabbed my arm and dragged me into the room, and sat me on a couch, holding her chin with her hand, and looking at me stupidly.
"You promised me, be my boyfriend." She had a happy smile on her face and a little pout, a little cute.
I was a little overwhelmed and nodded dumbfounded.
I wondered, how can I be a certain person, why can I be loved by this beautiful girl!
"I have a few questions for you, can you answer me?" I said softly, glanced at Zhang Yunxi, and threw a wink.
With a sweet smile on her face, she replied angrily, "Ask! ”
"Did you know me before? Why do I think you always have a sense of déjà vu? I frowned, believing that it was not a delusion, that I had actually seen her, but now I don't remember it at all.
Zhang Yunxi shook her head, rolled her eyes, and the corners of her mouth rose upward, revealing a look of disdain, "No, your flirtatious routine is too low-level!" ”
"Don't worry, I don't need you to tease, I'm already yours!" She whispered in my ear and rested her head on my shoulder.
She was so close to me that I could smell the faint fragrance of her perfume, and I was overwhelmed as if I had been electrocuted.
I gently pushed her away and asked, "Who was that man just now, are you familiar with it?" ”
The main reason why I asked about that man was because I felt that this person was wrong and a little weird.
Zhang Yunxi sneered, she thought I was jealous, so she mentioned that person, so she replied: "He is one of those homeless people in the past, and I did your business because he didn't come last time." ”
"He said that now he has a job and has money, and he came to thank me and gave me some gifts on this big night." She gestured to some of the gifts the man had given him.
I looked at the gifts and was so shocked that I cried out.
It was a small tree more than a meter high, but instead of leaves, there were patches of small red paper figures.
"What's wrong?" Zhang Yunxi was surprised when she saw me, a little curious, and very puzzled.
After being stunned for a moment, I replied and noticed that Zhang Yunxi was staring at me with her big eyes, her face rippling with spring.
If she guessed correctly, she didn't know the purpose of the paper figure of this tree, she only thought that the paper figure tree was a handicraft, but she didn't expect that it was an evil that could harm people's lives.
Only two paper figures, one red and one white, can easily kill five people, and if the red paper figures of this tree are all released, then it will be okay.
This city will have no peace!
When I think of "this city", my head tingles.
Because it dawned on me that I couldn't even remember the name of the city, or that no one had ever mentioned it.
But it's definitely not an ordinary city, otherwise how could there be so many strange things.
If I need to, I might go to the lake and visit the madman.
I never believed in ghosts and gods, but after I came to this city, I had those encounters, and I completely believed in them.
The madman told me at the beginning to get out of here, as if he knew it was going to happen.
However, now I want to know more about what secrets the city hides, and why there are so many evils.
At this moment, I don't know how to speak, Zhang Yunxi seems to appreciate this work of art, and I insist that those paper figures are evil, will he believe it.
If she believed, would she live in fear for the rest of her life, afraid that the red paper man would come to her bedside while she slept.
Perhaps the best thing to do at this point is not to tell her the truth, but to tell a white lie.
I thought for a moment and asked, "Yunxi, now that we are a couple, shouldn't we exchange something, and pretend to have a love token!" ”
Zhang Yunxi smiled and replied softly: "Well, what you said is reasonable." ”
Her teeth bit her red lip slightly, stretched out her index finger against her head, and said, "Let me think about what to give you." ”
I smiled indifferently and scraped the bridge of her nose, "Don't think about it so much, I don't need anything valuable, just give me that paper man tree, she is the crystallization of your kindness, more meaningful than anything else." ”
Zhang Yunxi pondered for a moment, and finally nodded, raised his head and smiled shyly at me, "Okay, I'll give it to you, then what are you going to give me!" ”
This made me feel embarrassed, and I just thought about asking her to give me the paper tree, but I didn't think about what to give her.
I don't have anything of value on me, I'm poor and white, I have no jewelry, I don't have jewelry, so what should I give to her a girl?
I touched my pocket.,In the end, I only found a gossip mirror.,This thing was given to me by the night Lechuan.,Although he said that the light was opened.,But it has no effect on the evil at all.。
I gave her this gossip mirror, thinking that she would definitely dislike this thing, but she smiled and said, "This thing looks quite interesting." ”
This made me breathe a sigh of relief, I was afraid that she would not be satisfied with this strange little gift, and she would not give me this paper figure tree in her anger.
Now I just need to wait for Ye Lechuan to come back and give him this paper figure tree to study, and tonight I also accidentally found the murderer of these murders, the man who rubbed shoulders with me at the police station that day.
He must not have expected that Zhang Yunxi and I met, and I happened to be involved in these murders.
