Chapter 72: The Mourning Hall
"Isn't there an elevator?"
Lin Yulan was here for the first time, so she was naturally not familiar with this place, so she asked casually.
"Hey! This is the old community more than ten years ago, and there is no elevator. ”
Gao Xin explained, and at the same time subconsciously wanted to take Lin Yulan's hand and walk up the stairs. At that moment, Lin Yulan did not refuse, and grabbed the big hand. Mu Ke'er was holding on to the railing behind her and groping her way forward step by step, and suddenly, she shouted angrily: "Get out! Lewd bastard! Where to catch it? ”
Lin Yulan and Gao Shan suddenly looked back when they heard the sound.
"Ahh
In the darkness, Lin Yulan saw a tall shadow running upstairs in a hurry, to be precise, it should be drifting, because the feet were not touching the ground at all. In an instant, a thick cold air similar to a fruit and vegetable warehouse came to their faces, and several people suddenly shivered. Mu Keer fumbled and turned on the flashlight mode of the mobile phone, looked ahead and said, "Bastard! It's not ...... when you touch someone Ay? What about people? How do you run so fast? ”
Mu Ke'er suddenly found that in addition to the stairs that extended upwards, there were only Lin Yulan and Gao Shan, and the obscene person who had just touched his sensitive position was completely gone. Lin Yulan suddenly felt that something was wrong, and quickened his pace and rushed upstairs......
Generally, the sound insulation of old houses is not good, and as soon as they stepped between the second and third floors, they faintly heard the cry of grief.
"What floor?"
At that moment, Lin Yulan was very calm. This may also be the courage that I have seen too many ghosts and experienced recently.
"Fifth floor."
Takasugi replied.
"Is it the top floor?"
Lin Yulan asked as she continued to climb up.
In fact, this is also a matter of experience, because her family lives in an old community, and those houses are generally only five or six stories high.
Takasugi nodded again, "Yes."
While speaking, the fifth floor had already arrived, and Lin Yulan and Mu Ke'er, who had arrived first, paused and waited for Gao Shan to come over and knock on the door. At that interval, the attentive Lin Yulan suddenly noticed something abnormal, and she stared at the door opposite Gao Xin's house.
"Wait, is there no one living in this West House?"
Lin Yulan wanted to ask for an answer to confirm her guess.
"Well, yes! Oh, Lin Da Beauty, you are too godly, right? Can you see this? ”
Gao Shan turned his head abruptly and looked at Lin Yulan with surprised and admiring eyes.
"Lin Yulan, it's a pity that you are not a detective!"
Mu Keer said, and took a picture of the door with his phone.
Lin Yulan smiled bitterly and said: "This year is already the Year of the Pig, but this one has the "Fu character" printed on the edge of the zodiac, but it shows that it is the Year of the Horse. Such obvious evidence is too obvious for a fool to see! ”
In fact, Lin Yulan can clearly see the zodiac implied by the word Fu, which is also under the irradiation of Mu Keer's mobile phone. The reason she had been able to tell that the house was uninhabited was because she had vaguely seen a ghostly fire flickering a few times in the small bathroom window. Since drinking the soul grass and having yin and yang eyes, Lin Yulan has become more and more able to automatically perceive the phenomena related to ghosts.
Listening to Lin Yulan's words, Gao Shan and Mu Ke'er glanced at each other, and acquiesced to each other that they were the "fools." ”
Takasugi turned to knock on the door, when suddenly the door opened.
"Thank you two beauties for coming, ......I would My mother will also be very happy and relieved under Jiuquan. ”
Gao Xin stood at the door, his mouth full of words of thanks. At the same time, I made a gesture of please.
Lin Yulan's face was tense, and she said in a solemn tone: "The festival mourns and changes." At that moment, listening to the cries one after another inside, as well as the slow and low rhythm of mourning, even the eccentric Mu Keer couldn't smile.
The living room was furnished as a mourning hall, and a black-and-white photograph of more than twenty inches was placed on a table in the center. There is also a fruit bowl on it, and an incense burner is burning with fireworks. On the wall directly above the statue, a circle of white silk flowers hangs, and mournful music is constantly playing in the speakers at the foot of the table.
Mu Ke'er followed closely behind Lin Yulan, ran to the statue, and bowed in mourning.
"On behalf of the old man, I would like to thank you two again, thank you for this kindness, thank you for your wreath."
Gao Xin, who is a filial son, bowed again and thanked him again and again, and Lin Yulan waved her hand to say that she didn't have to be polite. Gao Shan, as the nephew of the deceased, also hurriedly greeted the guests who came to mourn, and arranged Lin Yulan and Mu Keer on a two-seater sofa by the way.
"Come, drink some mineral water."
Gao Shan handed Lin Yulan and Mu Keer a bottle of mineral water respectively, and Gao Xin quickly explained: "I just came back from the crematorium, and everyone was immersed in grief, so I didn't have time to boil water and make tea. Thank you for your understanding! ”
The last few words were addressed to all the guests, and everyone nodded their heads to indicate that they didn't care, and in this case, no one would care about the weeks or not?
After a few words of greeting, Lin Yulan couldn't help but observe the situation here. Mu Ke'er, who had been attacked by a lewd black shadow before, was also searching everywhere for a target for "revenge", however, after a while, there was disappointment in her eyes.
The living room is not very big, but because it is not decorated like many families, make a partition or make a Bogu shelf or something, so you can still put some sofas left and right. At that moment, all the sofas were full. However, there was not a single person with an obscene face.
On the sofa near the portrait sat an old man with gray hair and a woman about thirty years old. In the entire living room, only the two of them cried the most. Except for these two snot and tears, most of the other so-called relatives covered their mouths and noses with their hands, and there were no tears to howl. The old man slapped his thigh from time to time, and choked up with a painful expression: "Wife, why are you so stupid?" If you go alone, you don't ...... No...... I don't know how to call me...... How lonely you should be over there......"
"Dad, don't be too upset. My mom...... My mom she's ...... She will feel distressed to see you like this. You let her ...... Let's live over there in peace,"
The woman on the side comforted the old man like this.
Lin Yulan had already guessed that the old man and the woman should be Gao Xin's father and sister.
Out of politeness, Lin Yulan got up and went over to comfort the old man.
"Uncle, you want to mourn! Taking care of your body is the most important thing, so that not only can your aunt feel at ease under Jiuquan, but also for your children, it is also a blessing! ”
"Thank you, girl."
The old man wiped his tears and raised his head to look at Lin Yulan.
"Oh...... I remember, you're Gao Xin and Gao Shan's classmates, right? In their high school graduation photos, I saw you. ”
Gao Xin's sister actually recognized Lin Yulan, it seems that her memory is really good.
"Yes, sister."
Lin Yulan saluted politely.
A cold breath suddenly passed through Lin Yulan's ears, and she immediately raised her alert. But after looking around, I didn't notice anything unusual. All the guests in the living room are living mortals! Just when Lin Yulan was puzzled, suddenly the black and white image appeared a little weird......
