Chapter 51: The Faceless Man
(This article is edited based on real events provided by netizens, thanks to the material provider netizens: Selling Girls' Matches.) )
The incident happened in 2016 in a community on Qianjiang Road, Binhe District, Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province......
This year, I heard a friend's trick from my hometown Henan to Hangzhou to work......
But as the saying goes, the ideal is very rich, but the reality is very skinny, after several interviews, I have no skills, so I have to follow my friend's advice to become a courier.
After doing this business, I realized that I have to meet a lot of people every day, and these people are really diverse, and many of them are even strange and abnormal......
"Hello, please sign for your courier." I once met a young woman who didn't do any work almost every day, but had to sign for all kinds of deliveries every day.
"Okay, thank you, I was still checking the logistics just now!" I saw through the crack in the door several times that her delivery boxes were almost full, and it was not because of how rich she was, but because the neighbors around me said that her family often had relatives and friends who came to her house to collect debts, as well as debt collection staff of various loan companies......
"I have a few more deliveries to arrive today! Hurry up in the afternoon. But she doesn't care at all, she almost never dresses up, and stays at home every day like a demon......
"Hello, I have a courier for you." I've also seen a lot of middle-aged men dressed in suits and leather shoes, but they bought all kinds of strange toys that make people blush and be embarrassed to speak.
Although my daily work is very hard, it has gradually made me more aware of this society, and I have gradually begun to fall in love with this job.
Of course, I also slowly fell in love with Hangzhou, a beautiful city like a garden......
Today I want to tell you through the author about a strange person I met in my career, which is far more terrifying than these, it should be said that it is weird......
Because even today, every time I think of this person, I still can't help but feel cold......
"Xiao Zheng! I'm here to deliver the courier so early today! "Yes, Aunt Li, you're early!" After working as a courier for a year, I slowly got to know most of the people in my area.
"Brother Wang, this is your courier, what did you buy so light?"
"Oh, the phone case broke the other day, and then I went online and bought a new one."
I don't think I've become friends with the residents here, but I know exactly what the name of each household they live in or what their online name is, so I greeted them warmly.
It was in July of that year that a person dressed and behaved strangely moved into the area I was in charge of......
I believe all Hangzhou people have experienced how hot it is in Hangzhou in July, but that person wore a sweatshirt with a hat, wrapped himself very tightly, and wore sunglasses and a mask, almost arming himself without any gaps......
"Brother Wang, who is this person? Dressed like this on a hot day. ”
"I don't know, I just moved here, I guess I'm nervous."
The neighbors looked at this person and felt a little strange, and some people wanted to ask, but that person gave others the feeling that he was very indifferent, and at first glance he felt that he was not a good character to get along with.
The man probably knew that he was dressed very ostentatiously and strangely, so he rarely went out, but the more he did this, the more strange it became, and soon all kinds of rumors spread around......
Some people say that he must have some kind of disease and is disfigured, so some people have low self-esteem so they dare not go out to meet people, and some young people say that he must be a big star, living here to experience life, afraid that someone will recognize him.
Some people even said that he must be a fugitive, and he is wanted after committing a crime, so he behaves strangely and rarely goes out, just for fear of revealing his whereabouts and luring the police over.
As for me, it was more than ten days after he moved here that I received a courier sent to him, and I had the opportunity to contact him for the first time.
"Hello, is anyone home?" This man has a very strange screen name called Death Ex-Boyfriend, which doesn't feel very comfortable to listen to, but I've seen a lot of weird screen names during this time, so it's not weird.
"Hello, there is your courier, please sign for it." To be honest, when I came to knock on the door, I was mentally prepared to face the terrifying face of this mysterious man, but I didn't expect that it scared me a lot when I opened the door......
"Do you have a pen? I don't have ...... at home" I never thought that this man was actually wearing a mask at home.
"Is it signed here? Is it OK to sign a screen name? "Maybe the light in his house is too dark, he doesn't have a pair of sunglasses at this time, and his eyes are all full of red bloodshots, which makes people feel really scary......
When I left that day, I saw through the cracks in the door that all the doors and windows of his house were hung with curtains, and the sunlight was all covered, and the light in the house was very dim, and the whole room seemed gloomy and depressing, and I didn't know how this guy lived in it......
It was an unpleasant encounter, and this guy became even more weird and terrifying to me......
But no matter how strange and terrifying it is, it doesn't have much to do with me, and more than two months have passed like this, and the strange man hasn't done anything strange.
So everyone's discussion and speculation gradually decreased, and few people were mentioning him, thinking that there would be nothing to do, and I had nothing to do with him, let alone anything else.
It wasn't until one day that I received another one of his couriers, and that was the second contact with him.
But I didn't expect that something like that would happen, and I was awakened by nightmares many times in the days that followed......
"Hello, here's one of your couriers that needs to be signed for." He was still wearing a big thick mask that day, and I still couldn't see his face......
But even though he only showed his eyes, I could still tell that the weather was very bad, and he was sweating profusely in the hot weather of July, and his body was faintly shaking......
"Are you alright, sir? I think you're a little uncomfortable. His body trembled visibly when I asked him suddenly, and then he looked at me with a somewhat sloppy look.
"I didn't ...... Although he said that it was okay, I still noticed that his body was shrinking shorter and shorter, and he squatted down little by little.
In the end, he fell to the ground with a thud!
"Sir! You... What's wrong with you...... Are you alright......" I was dumbfounded, not because I was afraid of anything else, but because I was worried that if something went wrong with him, I couldn't tell!
I was stunned for more than half a minute, and finally reacted, and then called the emergency number.
"This time...... Thank you so much..."Fortunately, the guy was just malnourished, and he fainted after a cold and a high fever, and woke up after two hanging bottles in the hospital.
That was the first time I saw him, but he wasn't as scary as rumored to be, except for a little emaciated and sickly who thought he was quite handsome.
"I'm a little strange, you're not ugly, why do you wrap yourself up every day?"
"I knew you were going to ask me that......"
He seemed to have guessed that I was going to ask this question and didn't show surprise, and of course he didn't hide it from me anymore.
"I can tell you, as long as you're not afraid." He said that he once had a very beautiful girlfriend, and the two were very affectionate and married, and they swore together that they would die together.
But I didn't expect this oath to come true, and the two of them didn't want to have an accident on a driving trip, and a large truck crashed into it while cornering.
In that tragic car accident, although he was seriously injured, he also survived......
But his girlfriend was not so lucky, and died on the spot because she smashed her skull......
When he slowly woke up from the coma, seeing the beautiful girlfriend in front of him instantly turned into a bloody and terrifying appearance, he didn't feel like death at all, the original vow was gone with the wind, and he just wanted to live well at this time.
I thought this was the most terrifying thing, but I didn't expect the following days to be really terrifying, starting on the seventh day after his girlfriend's death......
Almost every night, he dreams of his girlfriend coming to his bed......
"Why don't you come to accompany me, I'm so lonely and scared down here......" The girlfriend in the dream became very terrifying, and even said that she came to take her.
"Didn't we say it?" The mournful and desolate voice made him tremble, and he sometimes kept reassuring himself that it was just a nightmare, but the appearance of his girlfriend in the dream and the two lines of blood and tears were clearly imprinted in his mind.
Sometimes he desperately tried to get up and dodge, but no matter how hard he tried, his body still couldn't move half a minute, and he couldn't even make a sound in his throat.
He had been dreaming every night since that day, and he sometimes began to sleep all nights to avoid it, but as soon as he fell asleep, he would be terrified again......
Later, he moved out of his old residence at the suggestion of a friend, and sure enough, after moving out, he no longer had nightmares, but it was like this for more than ten days, because then his girlfriend would find him again......
After a few tosses, he thought of a way, regardless of the eyes of the people around him, and wrapped himself tightly, in order to make his girlfriend not recognize him, not to mention that this method really worked, and sure enough, his girlfriend didn't come to pester him again.
"She'll find my ...... again soon," he said, showing his face this time, believing that his girlfriend would definitely find him soon, so the first thing he did when he was discharged from the hospital was to move out.
When I listened to his story, I thought at first that he was frightened by his girlfriend's tragic situation and had fantasies, but he didn't look like him, and I thought about it and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on my forehead.
I really didn't see him again after that, and my life quickly entered a fast pace, riding a tricycle every day to pick up and deliver goods......
Later, I heard from colleagues in other districts that there was a strange person in the residential building he was responsible for, and he wrapped himself tightly all day on a hot day, which caused many residents to speculate......
I think it must be him, and he's still hiding from the girlfriend who was going to take him away.
I don't know if that's really the case about the story he said, but it bothered me for a while, so I'm going to tell you this strange story through the author......
