Chapter 57, Dark Shadow in Front of the Mirror
The moment Tang Yao heard the screams in the bathroom, his heart immediately tightened, and he turned around and shouted, "What's wrong?" ”
Then I heard a "bang", as if something had been smashed.
The door of the bathroom opened from the inside at this time, Lin Yuan's face was pale, and he could even see a deep look of horror in his eyes, Tang Yao couldn't help but ask again, "What did you see?" ”
Lin Yuan's body walked out as if he was stiff, pointed to the bathroom behind him without saying a word, Tang Yao walked over strangely, the bathroom at the moment was already in a mess, the faucet that was not screwed was ......flowing out, there were broken glasses on the ground, and I don't know why the mirror in the bathroom was also broken, and the broken glass was scattered everywhere.
Tang Yao walked around the bathroom, looked at it carefully for a while, then turned around and walked out and asked, "Did you smash it, what happened?" ”
Lin Yuan seemed to be speechless because of fear, Tang Yao walked over and patted him lightly on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, we are all here, you can't do anything." ”
"I ...... I seem to see a monster. Lin Yuan muttered.
Tang Yao's heart sank, Lin Yuan, this little kid, actually had a very high psychological quality, he didn't show any timidity when the illusionists on both sides of the train station did it before, but now he saw something that could scare this kid like this.
"What monster, is it in the bathroom?" Tang Yao glanced at the bathroom again as he spoke.
"I washed my face in the bathroom, it was normal, but when I looked up, I saw a very tall black shadow standing in the mirror, I was startled and hurriedly turned back, I didn't expect that there was really a black shadow standing behind me, and then stared at me with green eyes, I didn't know what it was, so I raised the cup and smashed it violently, but I didn't expect the cup to hit the mirror, and then the mirror shattered, and the black shadow disappeared, I heard your voice and walked out of it."
The black shadow-like monster appeared directly in the bathroom when Tang Yao didn't feel anything, how to hear it feel incredible.
Tang Yao asked, "Since you threw the water cup at that black shadow monster, why did the water cup hit the mirror, could it be that the water cup was spinning in the air?" ”
"I don't know, I was scared just now, maybe I remembered wrong, but that monster must exist." Lin Yuan said firmly.
Tang Yao felt that this matter was quite serious, after all, it involved Lin Yuan and the so-called monster was a bit unbelievable, so he took out his mobile phone and called Guo Zhengrong, and as soon as he finished talking about it, he immediately became nervous, and after a while, Boss Guo rushed over with two illusionists from the Hall of Dead Bones.
The two illusionists were surveying in the bathroom, while Boss Guo confirmed with Lin Yuan what happened again.
"Boss, there is no trace of the existence of the second person, and there is no sign of the illusion." The two illusionists of the Hall of Bones were wearing the same glasses that Fang Chao had worn before, and they could use special lenses to find traces of illusions, but now they didn't see anything, and they didn't find any signs of the existence of the second person, which was strange.
"Do you remember what that monster in black was like, was it human?" Boss Guo asked.
Lin Yuan lowered his head and thought for a while and said, "I didn't see it clearly, but it was very tall, it seemed to reach the ceiling, and I didn't know if it was human, but the face was very strange, it was not a human face, it looked like a ...... It's like it's wearing a ghost mask, or maybe it's the same ghost it looks like in the first place. ”
Obviously, Lin Yuan was frightened, it was impossible to see it so clearly, and Boss Guo didn't continue to ask but nodded: "You take a rest first, I will arrange for you to change the room, and if you don't want to go down to eat, I will also have someone bring you food." ”
After finishing speaking, Boss Guo waved his hand at Tang Yao, and the two of them walked outside the room, and Boss Guo asked in a low voice: "You were also present at the time, do you think this kid really hit a ghost or is he playing tricks?" ”
Tang Yao was stunned and asked strangely: "Isn't it the illusionist of Shanshui Terrace who did it?" ”
Boss Guo shook his head and said: "It's unlikely, our people didn't find any traces in the bathroom, if it was done by the illusionist of Shanshuitai, even if this person hid it well, it would be impossible for him to be completely untouched, combined with the fact that Lin Yuan, a little kid, did not cooperate with our work before, and this time it is very likely that it was his own trick." ”
Tang Yao couldn't give an answer, he glanced at Lin Yuan, who was sorting out the box, this little kid seemed to have just gotten closer to him, and he seemed to have just begun to understand him, but if this incident of smashing glass and hitting a monster was directed and acted by him, then Tang Yao really didn't understand what this kid was thinking.
Guo Zhengrong shook his head when he saw that Tang Yao was speechless: "Anyway, you keep an eye on this kid for me, no matter what tricks he plays, tell me in time, remember that our customer is not this little kid, but his father." ”
After Boss Guo finished speaking, he took people away, at this time Fang Chao, who heard the news, happened to come over and saw Guo Zhengrong and Tang Yao's whispers, and after Guo Zhengrong left, he stepped forward and said in surprise: "Boss Guo seems to really appreciate you, but it's normal to think about it, Boss Guo is famous for his temper in our company, he looks down on those illusionists with identity and background, and you are an ordinary person and poor jingle ring, just completely different from those sons, you have to seize the opportunity, Boss Guo has a lot of say on Mr. Ao's side, If he appreciates you, you'll be able to jump faster in our Hall of Bones in the future. ”
Tang Yao smiled bitterly and shook his head: "The workplace is like a battlefield, where is it so easy, by the way, you come in and help me see if there are any traces left by the illusionist in the bathroom." ”
After some fiddling in the bathroom, Fang Chao didn't find anything, and Tang Yao asked at the door, "Is it true that there is no trace of the second person?" ”
Fang Chao took off his glasses and said: "It seems that yes, I have tried all the general illusionist methods, but I can't see any traces, either no one has ever entered, or this illusionist is quite high-level, and the means are so powerful that he can leave no clues, but, although the general method is not good, I still have some unconventional methods here." ”
After speaking, Fang Chao walked out and opened the backpack he was carrying, and took out a worn-out codex from the backpack, Tang Yao immediately said when he saw it: "Isn't this the codex that the old man of the Zhang family gave you, it's the Mo family codex left by his mother." ”
Fang Chao said while carefully opening the codex: "This codex is a very powerful treasure, it records a lot of secret techniques of the Mo family that have long been lost, but I translate it slowly, so I read it slowly, and many secret techniques need to be practiced by me to judge whether it is really useful, so I have only browsed one-sixth of this codex at present, and even if it is one of these sixths, I have a lot of half-understanding." ”
"Is there a more powerful way to investigate the scene?" Tang Yao asked.
Fang Chao nodded and said: "Yes, yes, but I haven't tried it myself, let's take it as an experiment today, you go out first, I have to close the door." ”
After Tang Yao withdrew, Fang Chao immediately closed the door of the bathroom, Tang Yao waited outside for more than half an hour before the door of the bathroom opened again, and it seemed to be much darker inside, because it was night and the light was not turned on, which made the bathroom look a little depressed.
Tang Yao glanced inside and asked, "It doesn't seem to make any difference, isn't the method on that codex not good?" ”
Fang Chao shook his head and said, "On the contrary, the method on this codex is very useful, and there are indeed traces left by the illusionist in this bathroom, but ordinary methods can't detect it. ”
Tang Yao showed a look of surprise on his face and hurriedly asked, "Where are the traces?" ”
Fang Chao reached out and turned on the bathroom light at this moment, and when the light came on, a black shadow suddenly appeared in front of the mirror, startling Tang Yao, and took several steps back in a row, but when he looked closely, he found that the black shadow did not move, but just stood quietly in front of the mirror.
"This is the black shadow that Lin Yuan saw, that is, the traces left by the illusionist, but it was hidden, and I used the form escape manifestation technique in the codex to discover the existence of this black shadow." Fang Chao explained.
