Chapter 11: Renovation Workers
In the rental house, those three ghosts are actually there.
Xiaowei saw me coming back, greeted me with a smile, and his demeanor was very natural.
The mother and son sat at the table, and when they saw me back, they all looked at me expectantly, and of course I knew what they were waiting for.
I made Coke chicken wings in the kitchen again, and Xiao Wei walked in, and he looked at the black and red oil in the pot, and the chicken wings were boiling in it, and his eyes were full of anticipation.
I told him that you should come and eat later, and he couldn't stop nodding.
After thinking for a while, I turned my head and asked him, "Xiaowei, the last landlord, have you seen him?" ”
Hearing me ask like this, Xiao Wei was stunned for a moment, his eyes were wandering, and he seemed to be very scared. I knew he must have seen that person, so I asked Xiaowei again, "What does he look like?" Also, does he talk to you? ”
Xiaowei glanced back at the mother and son in the living room: "He looks like an ordinary person, he is very capable, when he stays in this room, he can see where we are at a glance, but he never embarrass us." ”
When the chicken wings were ready, I put the plate on the table, and the three of them were eating it with a lot of joy.
At this moment, I vaguely saw a figure in the living room flickering. The moment the figure swayed, I felt very familiar, and the shadow that flashed in this room was definitely a person from countless times before.
While they were eating, I stood up and walked over to the living room couch.
Obviously, I saw a place on the couch cushion that was recessed, and there was definitely a person sitting there, a ghost I couldn't see.
Then, the TV turned on, and in the flickering of the screen, the characters kept jumping, and the channels were constantly changing.
I sat across from the couch and stared at the slightly recessed part for a long time.
After a while, I saw that the lump had gradually stabilized, and someone should have stood up. Glancing back at the three ghosts at the table, they also stopped eating and looked over at me.
Gradually, a look of panic appeared on their faces. I saw them throw their uneaten wings on the table and then all of them stood up.
A cold air flowed past me, and at that moment, the three ghosts suddenly screamed, and then they stood side by side with their backs against the wall, shivering at what they couldn't see.
Eventually, they disappeared from my sight, leaving me with nothing but the walls in front of me. On the plate on the table, there were still a few uneaten chicken wings left.
The living room was quiet, and I couldn't hear any movement.
At this moment, there was a sudden noise on the TV, and the news just now was a TV series, in which the man was yelling hysterically at a woman.
Turning around, I looked at the couch again, and sure enough, the spot facing the TV was recessed again.
I looked above the mark for a moment, and faintly, I saw the outline of a human figure, which was showing little by little.
As the man's vision cleared up a little, I finally saw that it was a man, not very tall, and probably in his forties if I looked at his face.
At this moment, he is sitting on the sofa with Erlang's legs crossed, holding the remote control in his hand and staring at the screen without blinking.
The plot on TV is obviously a tragedy, but he laughs and looks very happy.
He should have seen me, but he didn't speak, and I didn't say much when I saw his reaction. So we watched TV together, and it wasn't until we finished watching the TV series and the ending song that he turned off the TV and said to me:
"It's been so long since you moved here, we haven't met yet, I thought you would be scared away by the three of them, who knows you're not afraid of them, that's fine, see me, you'll definitely leave!"
As I spoke, I saw that his pale face was slightly blue.
Then blood came out of his eyes, nostrils, and mouth, and his face looked hideous, but he kept smiling at me.
I asked, "Who are you?" ”
"My name is Zheng Long, and I'm a renovation worker." Speaking of this, he looked left and right: "This house is beautiful, I pretended to be ......"
Looking at everything around him, Zheng Long's expression was very proud, and he patted his chest: "When decorating, I made a lot of suggestions, the designer born in the professional class is just a guy with a smooth face, and he is not good at decoration materials or anything, he only knows how to get some bells and whistles." ”
As he spoke, he pointed to the desktop air conditioner standing in the corner and said to me: "That designer, what kind of central air conditioner is going to be installed." He didn't think that this house was not installed at all, and there was no place to install it if it was installed......
Later, I listened to my words and bought an independent air conditioner, and after sending it, the worker asked for more than 200 installation fees, but the woman disagreed and said let's install it. I asked her to give me that setup fee, and she haggled with me and ended up giving me a hundred dollars.
Anyway, I'm making money, and I don't dislike a hundred yuan. The floor is quite high, I want to go a little dizzy from above, the outside unit of the air conditioner is hung up, and when I want to come in, my feet slip, and the rope is loose, so I fell down. ”
When describing the process of his death, he seems very natural, as if he is talking about something that has nothing to do with him, and his attitude is very good.
I looked at him for a moment and asked, "You're dead, why are you looking for a few pads?" ”
He suddenly smiled strangely at me: "I didn't look for a back, it's because they live too painfully, and they can't make up their minds if they want to die, so I watched from the side and was anxious, so I helped them." ”
He smiled and looked disapproving, which made people feel very uncomfortable.
I asked, "How did you do that?" ”
"I didn't do anything, I just whispered in their ears when they were uncomfortable, and I made up my mind when they were uncomfortable. You say, yes......"
Suddenly, I felt that the words "brazen" were tailor-made for the ghost in front of me.
I only heard him continue: "That woman too, her husband is not good to her, but she is dead set on his son, the child stole her things, she is silent, she endures everything silently. ”
As he spoke, his words suddenly changed: "So, I told her, let her stop putting it up, just die and forget it, why should she make herself so miserable, she listened to my words and was relieved." ”
Hearing this, I seemed to feel that something was wrong, so I asked, "That boy, also asked you to let her die?" ”
Zheng Long suddenly raised his eyes: "It was not this woman who killed the child, it was her husband, the biological father of the child!" ”
