Chapter 21: Nothing
No one needed to remind them, everyone came in with a spell in their hands.
After all, this room is likely to be the source of terror.
A two-bedroom house with a spacious living room.
It's the kind of old-fashioned decoration, red doors, red floors, red furniture.
Then there are more mirrors.
On the wall next to the bathroom door, on the wall behind the sofa, on the wall in the kitchen.
Mirrors large and small, each side reflects their virtual image, large or small.
So much so that they were given the illusion that there were people on all sides of the room, and they all had eyes staring at them from all directions.
Qin Ming came in and took a look around the kitchen.
On the kitchen table, there are dishes that have not been put away.
There were still some leftovers on the plate.
A few rice bowls were listed on the table, Qin Ming touched them, and they were even a little warm.
On the stove is a large cutting board.
A kitchen knife with a notch, standing straight on it.
The edge of the handle is stained with something dark red.
Not sure if it's blood.
Qin Ming came out of the kitchen with some discomfort in his stomach, and then he walked to the bathroom again.
The bathroom was just as He Wei described to him at the time.
It is larger than most people's bathrooms.
There are almost a dozen flats.
The toilet is facing the door, and on the left is a sink, and on the right is a bathtub.
Qin Ming deliberately walked to the bathtub to take a look, but although the bathtub was filled with water, there were no corpses soaked in it.
However, this did not stop his thinking, and at this moment, he simulated the terrifying scene that He Wei had seen here that night.
Qin Ming came out of the bathroom, and then entered the master bedroom on the south side.
The bedroom is huge, and even with a two-metre by two-metre bed and four wardrobes, there is still some space left.
The curtains were drawn.
But the bedside lamp was on.
The quilt was a little messy, and one pillow fell to the floor.
Other than that, there is nothing.
"There's nothing in this room.
We have made such a big psychological preparation. ”
Chen Zihan and Hu Chao also walked in from the living room at this time, and after turning around, they sat on the bed, and then the two of them each lit a cigarette and smoked it with a relaxed expression.
"Have you been to the second bedroom?"
Qin Ming asked the two of them.
"Empty."
Without waiting for them to answer, Yi Shaodong also walked in at this time, and spread his hands without any discovery.
Qin Ming was a little unconvinced, and then followed Wang Sheng in to take a look.
However, seeing is believing, and there is nothing in this bedroom that seems to be discordant.
There are many posters of female stars on the wall, and there are several books stacked on the desk.
Obviously, this is Yan Tu's room.
"Lao Qin, you said that there is nothing here, is it normal or abnormal?"
Wang Sheng was a little unsure whether this situation was good or bad for them now.
"It's not abnormal, it's very abnormal."
Qin Ming glanced at Wang Sheng, and then said suspiciously:
"There are six bowls on the kitchen table.
I touched it just now, and the rest of the dish was still hot. ”
"Is the dish still hot?" When Wang Sheng heard this, he looked incredible.
"Any idea what that means?"
"What?"
"Maybe there were people here before we came in, no, maybe there was some.
However, for unknown reasons, it disappeared. ”
Qin Ming's words frightened Wang Sheng's spine, and he subconsciously glanced back.
Fortunately, there is only a virtual image of him in the mirror behind him.
Qin Ming thought for a while, and then said:
"And worst of all, if the ghosts in the house aren't here anymore and we can't find them.
We completely hung up on the exam this time.
After all, three days of exam time, counting today, we have already used up two days.
If we don't have a harvest here, then these two days of hard work will be in vain. ”
What Qin Ming thought before coming in here and what he saw after coming in can be said to be completely different.
He thought there was something horrible in the room, and it would be filled with the smell of blood, and even the stench of corpses.
However, none of this is available.
But most of the time, there is often much more non-existence than there is horror.
Especially when it may appear in unknown ways.
Yan Tu's family only has three people, but the dishes and chopsticks on the table are indeed six people.
And the leftovers on the plate, he had just seen a few fried yellowed fingers in it.
So it's not hard to deduce that it wasn't humans who were eating around the table just now!
But where have they gone?
Is it true that it's no longer here, or is it ...... It's all hidden.
They will pop up at any moment, and turn them into stuff on that plate.
He didn't know.
It can also be said to be uncertain.
Qin Ming and Wang Sheng came out of the second bedroom, and Yi Shaodong and the others were all sitting on the sofa in the living room.
Chen Zihan turned on the TV and used the remote control to change the channel.
Seeing him come out, Chen Zihan asked:
"Detective Qin, take a turn here, do you find anything?"
Although Chen Zihan was asking him, it was not difficult to hear the tone, which was clearly sarcastic.
After all, from the beginning of the exam, Chen Zihan disagreed with him in his heart.
I always want him to be the leader of that thinking, but he doesn't have that ability.
"Nope."
Qin Ming shook his head, but he didn't say much.
Seeing that Qin Ming had nothing to say, Chen Zihan asked again:
"But didn't you say that this is the key to passing this exam?
How could it not have been discovered?
Doesn't that mean that our efforts over the past two days have been in vain? ”
"Don't be weird. You bull, you tell me one, two, three! ”
Yi Shaodong glared at Chen Zihan and said with some unhappiness.
"Who's weird, I'll ask if it's okay. Don't you care about it? ”
"I care, but I trust Qin Ming's judgment."
Yi Shaodong stood up to Qin Ming, Hu Chao glanced at Yi Shaodong and Chen Zihan, and then asked Qin Ming:
"What are we going to do next?
There's nothing in this house, are we going to stay here? ”
"Yes. I think there's something hidden in this house.
It's just that it didn't show up.
After all, all of our previous investigations point to this.
I don't believe it's really going to be as "clean" as we see it now. ”
Speaking of this, Qin Ming deliberately looked at Chen Zihan and said:
"Of course, if someone has a better proposal, or wants to go it alone, I don't have a problem.
There are also some things that I think need to be made clear.
That's that we're all the same, all to pass the exam.
I don't have to ask you for anything.
Again, there is no need for you to listen to my proposals.
After all, the legs are long on our own body, and we are still in charge of which way we want to play and how to go. ”
Qin Ming's words suddenly made the atmosphere in the room a little awkward.
Because it's like saying that they eat ready-made and pick and choose.
Especially made Chen Zihan the most embarrassed.
But nothing was said either.
Qin Ming suggested that they stay for now, at least tonight.
And on everyone's side, except for Chen Zihan, who was dissatisfied with Qin Ming in his heart, everyone else believed in Qin Ming.
So in the end, it was decided that they would stay here tonight.
If something does come back, they work together to destroy it.
"Did you kid find anything again?"
Yi Shaodong sat next to Qin Ming, and took advantage of the fact that everyone's attention was no longer here, and hurriedly asked in a low voice.
"Nothing was found. I just think those, definitely going back here.
Or maybe they're just here at all, but we haven't noticed it.
So we have to be careful, lest we fail and get killed. ”
Qin Ming reminded Yi Shaodong, but this product actually didn't need him to remind anything.
Because he believed in his feelings very much, Yi Shaodong was definitely not as simple as it seemed.
Although the other party is a little stunned to do things, they are all in some inconsequential things.
Stupid is stupid, but not really stupid.
He had read a few books on psychology before.
As mentioned above, the problem of the concealment of the human psyche.
For a normal person, the more he manifests a certain aspect, the more representative he is, and he wants to hide the defects of the opposite.
For example, a person will always act smarter than others, then in turn, he especially does not want to be seen as stupid.
And in his heart, he always suspects that he is a fool.
Therefore, a person like Yi Shaodong, who is always stunned and optimistic, is likely to be a person who is more delicate than anyone else and very pessimistic in his heart.
It's hard to say.
When Qin Ming was in school, although he was reluctant to study, he especially liked to read some books.
Like psychology, human anatomy, suspense novels, mystery novels.
This may also be the reason why his thinking ability is quite good.
After all, doing anything and tracing back to the essence is a psychological battle.
