CHAPTER XX

It was already around 11 p.m. when He Yingying was sent home from the hospital.

She Yingying couldn't resist it, Feng Luo still had to stay here tonight, and her phone was locked in a drawer in the guest room just to be on the safe side.

Looking at the drawer key within reach of his hand, Feng Luo also suddenly felt sweaty in his palms, and his hands couldn't help but tremble slightly.

And all this tension also comes from his premonition, the premonition that something strange is likely to happen tonight.

Von Lorde couldn't help but comfort himself in his heart.

"This will almost save you a lot of unnecessary trouble."

After Feng Lorde washed up, turned off all the lights, and collapsed on the bed in the guest room, he was so tired today, he wanted to get a good night's sleep to relieve his fatigue, but at this time suddenly a cello played in his ears.

"It's weird, I've never seen any musical instruments in this house!"

Feng Luo gently pushed open the door of the master bedroom next door, the door was not locked, and He Yingying could be seen sleeping through the crack in the door, which showed that she was naturally not playing the cello.

"There are only two people in the whole villa, me and her, and there will definitely be no third person, so who is playing the cello?"

Beads of sweat rolled down his spine, and the feeling of panic made him confused, and the shrill sound of playing came again, which made Von Rodt clearly remember the strange experience that had happened in the guest room two days ago.

On that day, a woman who played the cello but could not see her facial features appeared in the mirror, and just like today, the music she played was "connected to the same fate".

Feng Luo followed the sound and walked downstairs, turning on the lights in the corridor and hall one by one, so as to strengthen his courage. The sound of the playing, although faint, is clearly felt, and the closer you get to the basement, the clearer the playing.

"It's supposed to be in the basement, yes. It can't be a thief sneaking in......"

Von Lorde muttered softly, he couldn't figure out why the thief didn't take other valuables and went to the basement to play the cello. Isn't he afraid of being discovered? Besides, if you have the skills to play the cello, why bother to trespass into a private house.

The door to the basement was on the left side of the hall, and it was not locked because it needed to be cleaned, so von Lorde picked up the mop pole from the side and used it to strengthen his courage and walk up the dimly lit staircase.

He Yingying once showed me around the basement. There are two floors in the basement, the lower floor is where the garage is located, and the second floor below is where some miscellaneous items are placed, but the things are very messy, so I didn't go in to watch.

Walking through the garage to the second floor, Von Lorde turned on the light at the door, and the faint light bulb illumination could only barely see the items placed in the room, but fortunately, the basement was so dark that he couldn't see his fingers at last there was a glimmer of light, and the sound of playing stopped abruptly with the lights turned on.

The basement is not large, about 50 square meters, and there are a lot of discarded electrical appliances here, as well as a few thick packages.

Von Lord, pacing back and forth in the basement, vaguely remembered seeing a cello case in the innermost corner, and he walked over and opened it, choking on the thick dust that covered it, and coughed several times in quick succession.

He held the slightly heavy cello in his hand and stroked it gently, even if it was placed in the case, there was still a lot of dust inside, and it was obvious that it had been sitting here for a long time.

"I heard someone playing just now...... With so much dust, it doesn't seem to be this instrument. ”

Von Rode gently lowered the cello, only to catch his attention with a picture scattered to the ground from the side compartment inside the strings.

Von Lode picked up the photo, and in the dim light, he could see a couple snuggling together. The faces of the two people were filled with happy smiles, and the woman was very beautiful, with a short and fresh haircut; The man is very handsome, tall and tall, and his right hand is held on the woman's shoulder.

Judging from the length of the woman's hairstyle, it can be judged that she is not He Yingying, the couple should be Zhang Xiangyue and her husband Qiao Minhong Undoubtedly, their photo Feng Luo is the first time to see her.

This also reminded von Lord.

"Qiao Minhong and He Yingying have been married for so long, I haven't even seen the wedding photos of the two in the bedroom."

He suddenly remembered that in Xiao Sun's mouth, Zhang Xiangyue had told him that Qiao Minhong was very strange and often went to the basement to rummage through boxes and cabinets.

Feng Luode had only seen Zhang Xiangyue, a woman who looked similar to He Yingying, and Qiao Minhong became the husband of these two women again, and an inexplicable question emerged in his heart: "What is Qiao Minhong's purpose in approaching He Yingying?" Why does he come to the basement so often? ”

At this time, the cello played again, very close to Von Lord, he naturally heard it very clearly, and reflexively looked at the cello in the corner, there was nothing abnormal, and the case was still in place.

"Are you a human or a ghost? Do you dare to come out for me! ”

Von Lorde used this shout to dispel the fear in his heart, and the performance stopped abruptly again. With a "snap", the light bulb suddenly shattered, just like the last time the glass in the guest room shattered, and he hurriedly covered his head with both hands, but fortunately there were not many fragments, and he was not injured.

The entire basement was pitch black, and Feng Luo walked out of the basement in the dark, and returned to the hall, still holding the photo in his hand.

Early in the morning, Feng Luo still told He Yingying about last night's experience with palpitations, she looked at the photo and replied very calmly: "My husband used to be Zhang Xiangyue's agent, and it is not strange to have this photo. ”

"He turned out to be Zhang Xiangyue's agent?" Von Lorde exclaimed in surprise.

After Zhang Xiangyue's sudden disappearance, he resigned as an agent and took a management position in the film company. I met him at a film promotion meeting, and we talked about Zhang Xiangyue at the first meeting, and then we gradually became acquainted. ”

Feng Luode's doubts about her also began to gradually decline, so it seems that Qiao Minhong hooked up with Zhang Xiangyue by taking advantage of the convenience of his agent's position, so is this photo as a dead ghost What message does she want to express?

Just when Feng Luo was in deep thought, He Yingying lay in his arms with a "sigh", looking at him with those charming eyes, Feng Luo couldn't help but feel a flutter, but he didn't dare to look at her gaze.

"I want to ask Mr. Li Jihan to take a look in the basement, there is a lot of evil in it, I'm afraid there is something dirty."

He Yingying still looked at him without saying a word.

"Yesterday the song 'Connected to the Same Fate' was not played, but there was still such an evil thing as the violin playing it himself. We should ask Mr. Li to come and see, he should have the ability to exorcise evil spirits. ”

Von Lorde repeated it with some trepidation.

He Yingying's expression was wooden, as if it was an irrelevant matter to her whether to ask Teacher Li to do it.

Li Jihan was also very happy when he learned about this, and arrived here at the fastest speed within less than half an hour of receiving the phone, and listened to us tell us about a series of strange experiences that have happened in recent days.

He said thoughtfully, "This house is a dark house, and there will be many evil things that interfere with your normal life. It's just that I don't know what they're all about? ”

"The ultimate goal? What does this mean? Von Rode asked.

"Some spirits have suffered great pain and died in their lives, and their resentments are very strong, so they are more likely to influence others than ordinary spirits, and this is why the Netherworld is terrifying."

"Because those spirits don't want to leave this world easily, they affect humans living in the real world, right?"

Li Jihan nodded: "That's right." This is the case with many spirits, but each spirit has different attachments, some want the occupants to leave without disturbing them; Others want to catch a stand-in so that they can be reincarnated. ”

The reason he spoke was very clear, and Von Lorde could roughly understand the meaning.

"I'm going to do a ritual to exorcise evil spirits! Ms. He, don't stay in the house, just let Xiao Feng be my assistant, you are a thin woman who can't fight the evil here. ”

Ho Yingying promised to wait temporarily in the garage on the basement floor.
