Chapter 12: Discovered
The curtains in the ward were open, but no light from the outside penetrated the windows.
In the dimness, Zhou Du's pupils dilated, and there were faintly visible purple points of light circulating in his eyes.
Let go.
The struggling ghost in his hand was several positions away from him in an instant.
probably didn't expect Zhou Du to be able to catch him with one hand, and the other party became vigilant, not as unscrupulous as when he first met.
"Looking for me?"
Zhou Du looked at the male ghost in front of him who was stabbed to death with a knife.
The right hand twisted into a strange shape, and a thumb was missing, and a small section of intestines was exposed from the abdomen, and the whole body was wounded.
suffered inhuman torture before his death, and it is no wonder that he is so resentful after death.
"Do me a favor."
The male ghost's voice was hoarse, and Zhou Du suspected that his vocal cords had also suffered some kind of destruction before he died.
The resentment that was so red and black that it converged within half a meter around the male ghost, as if it was showing friendship to Zhou Du.
For all this, Zhou Du only raised his eyebrows.
"My name is Sun Deng, and I'll help me write a letter and send it to a debt collection agency."
"I refuse."
The resentment stabbed at Zhou Du at the moment of refusal to almost materialize.
Zhou Du stood in place, the sharp blade stopped at a centimeter in front of him, but he didn't even blink.
Seeing that the other party did not attack, Zhou Ducai slowly blinked.
"You probably found out that I can see ghosts and communicate with ghosts, so you came here just now to directly attack my soul and invade my body. But you didn't expect that I could not only see ghosts, but also catch ghosts. That's why you temporarily switched to this way. ”
Zhou Du hit the nail on the head and exposed the other party's intentions.
"No matter how much you know about me, trust me, you've only learned a drop in the bucket."
He walked slowly towards the ghost.
Outside the ward, a trainee nurse walked by pushing the ward's general medicine cart and looked through the frosted glass on the door, which was pitch black.
Probably the patient pulled the curtains and didn't wake up yet.
She came to the pharmacy to pick up her medicine.
"Morning, Xiao Gu."
"Head nurse, you're so early."
Xiao Gu picked up the list of medicines in his hand, checked the patient's bed number and name for each medicine, and asked casually.
"The patient in room 314 doesn't seem to have changed his dressing."
The head nurse looked at her: "Didn't the patient in room 314 be discharged yesterday, and now there is no one inside." ”
"Oh...... Oh. ”
Xiao Gu felt that something was not right.
How can an empty ward be pitch black? They usually open the curtains.
After changing the medicine, she thought about it and came to the outside of ward 314 again.
Just as he was about to look inside, the door suddenly opened, and a man came out of it.
"Ahh
She was taken aback.
Zhou Du was also taken aback by her.
"Are you alright?"
Zhou Du stretched out his hand to support the trainee nurse.
Xiao Gu came to his senses and looked at Zhou Du: "Why did you casually enter the empty ward?" You don't want to smoke secretly, do you? ”
As she spoke, she walked inside.
There was no smell of smoke, the curtains were also opened, nothing was missing.
It's just a little cold inexplicably.
Probably didn't have the air conditioner on.
She turned around: "Don't go into places you shouldn't go in the future." ”
Zhou Du said yes again and again.
He pulled out his phone with one hand, dialed a number, and walked away quickly.
"Hey, little Fan? How did you answer the phone? What about Xiao Xieren? ”
A rough, deep voice came from the phone.
"Apply a mask. Ghosts? ”
"Well, it's a gambler. There's still room for improvement in your work. ”
"I'll come over here."
Zhou Du hung up the phone, glanced at the freshly baked ghosts around him, and smiled brightly at them.
The ghosts who had just died were so frightened by this strange scene that they fled instantly.
After Zhou Du left the hospital, the ghosts regrouped.
"That person can see us."
"The point isn't that you can see us, don't you see, he actually dragged a ghost!"
"That's a ghost, isn't it? You can feel resentment from so far away. ”
"What about the ghost, it's not like the man grabbed his ankle and dragged him upside down, half-dead."
"I just died, can anyone popularize science? Who's that? ”
"We also just died, and we haven't heard of it."
……
Zhou Du found a path where no one was around.
After a while, the sound of chains rang out.
Far away, a man in black with three or five thick clothes walked slowly.
The man is nearly two meters tall, dark-skinned, unsmiling, and wears a custom-made pure black uniform that looks a bit like a suit. Even this kind of clothing couldn't completely hide his full muscles.
However, it is such a human wall, but there is a black mist constantly rising from his chest.
With each step he took, the massive chains that ran through his chest trembled, making a metal crash.
The chain the thickness of an adult's fist continued the way he came, stretching far away.
The man came to Zhou Du and took the ghost.
"Don't keep working for Xiao Xie, he's white enough, you should apply the mask."
The man didn't say a word and walked backwards.
Although he knew that Fan Wusu had always been like this, every time they met, he would still make fun of him.
After seeing the two leave, Zhou Du's expression became serious.
The ghosts hidden in all corners of H City seem to be beginning to know that there is such a person as him here.
Except for the infants and toddlers after "reincarnation", those children whose soul and body have not yet fully integrated can be seen in childhood, and there are almost no adults who have the so-called "yin and yang eyes".
Children don't understand anything even if they can see it, and their memories are not retained until they are one or two years old.
Therefore, once the ghosts hidden in the yang world knew that there was such a "yin and yang eye" as Zhou Du, they would definitely find him one after another.
But he didn't come to the Yang World to help these ghosts solve their unfulfilled wishes.
The candle dragon must be found.
Otherwise, in order to deal with these ghosts that pop up from time to time, sooner or later, he will expose more information and be known by other living people.
Most people can't accept the existence of alternatives.
Then the trouble will be great.
Zhou Du quickened his pace and planned to go home first, but suddenly stopped.
At some point, a few more cats were hiding nearby.
They didn't say a word, just stared at him faintly.
I vaguely felt that these cats must have some connection with the candle dragon, but when Zhou Du approached them, those wild cats scattered again and slipped away in an instant.
Zhou Du saw a cat chasing after him.
If a cat wants to run, it can't catch up with human ability. It's hard to even keep up.
When the cat stopped, Zhou Du braked and looked up and found himself back near the house.
He frowned and looked at the cat that had stopped.
The other party also looked at him calmly, screamed, and began to look for food.
Zhou Du took the opportunity to have lunch too.
After lunch, the cat started running again.
Zhou Du followed again.
However, this time, the shared electric car ran out of battery halfway through the chase. Seeing that it was already dinner time, Zhou Du had to give up and find a nearby bus stop to prepare to go home.
"Zhou Du, meet again."
