Chapter 6: One Died
"Don't think too much about it these days. I think everyone has an exam tomorrow. Bai Qi knows that today is June 6th, and tomorrow and the day after tomorrow will be the most important day for every senior high school student - the college entrance examination.
Looking at the few children in front of them who were in the flowering season, a few dream breakers were still a little unbearable. "You'll go back to the classroom in a moment, and we'll leave a few colleagues on standby at the school. As soon as you notice something is wrong, please contact us immediately, know? Cheng Chen told a few people.
"Hmm...... You can deal with ghosts, right? Is it like Uncle Ying in the movie, using black dog blood, glutinous rice or something to drive away evil spirits? With the assurance of Bai Qi and others, the hearts of several children are also a lot more steady. Ding Jing asked the Miao descendant in front of him with admiration on his face. He is the oldest here, in general or in TV series, the older he gets, the higher his cultivation, and his means must be very powerful.
"You're thinking too much about children." Miao Yi was a little puzzled: "Anyway, you go back to review first, a few of us are staying near your teaching building." On the other side, Qian Weiwei and Wu Ruomeng also returned to the crowd.
"Don't tell anyone else about this, just say that we are looking for you to record a confession. Remember, not even your parents, or they'll all get involved, you know? Bai Qi instructed: "Also, for the safety of your lives, from tomorrow, we will book a hotel near the examination room and open a room for you." You've been staying with us for the next few days. As for your parents, just tell them that it was arranged by the school, no problem. ”
"Yes." Several children are quite sensible, and everyone knows the seriousness of this matter. "After school today, you will go home and pack your luggage, and we will send one person to follow, and we will take you away after packing up."
"Then as long as you survive these three days, will you be completely safe?" Zhang Jingrui still remembers the assurances of Bai Qi and others. "Well, so these three days are also the most dangerous. As long as these days pass...... Well...... And that's it. After Miao finished speaking, he closed his mouth in amusement. He still remembered the mission that Lu Qing and others went to Japan to perform, and the protected target Kanako still did not escape the killing of the ghosts after the mission, so he didn't dare to boast about Haikou to ensure the safety of these people, so he could only perfunctory the past.
After escorting a few children back to the classroom, Bai Qi turned around, frowned and said, "Next, we will divide into two groups, one group will go to the intersection where the incident happened last night to investigate and collect evidence, and the other group will be responsible for staying at the school to protect them." ”
"Yes." Wu Ruomeng nodded, and then said, "I want to go to the scene to investigate." ”
"I'll be with me." Cheng Chen hurriedly spoke.
"That's okay, Brother Miao, Jingming and Yunjiang, the three of you are in charge of the school here." Bai Qi said. In this operation, Lu Qing put him in charge of the position of captain, so no one else had any objection to his assignment.
"This is the note I just put together, you can take it over and check it out on the spot." Duan Jingming stepped forward and handed Bai Qi a cowhide notebook in his arms. After Bai Qi took it, he took a rough look at it, and then said with a smile: "It is worthy of being a talented girl who has worked as an editor, and she has organized the scattered language of those children into articles in such a short period of time, and also marked the clues." It's so attentive! ”
"Why, it's just a professional habit. Hope it helps. Duan Jingming said with a smile.
"The school has handed it over to us, and we will contact you if there is any trouble." Miao said patting his chest. "Yes, don't worry! You guys need to be safe, too! Chang Jiangyun said eagerly with concern.
"Alright, let's go first. According to the map, the place where they played last night was not too far from here, and the back and forth added up to an hour at most. Cheng Chen said to Wu Ruomeng and Bai Qi beside him: "Let's go." The men quickly parted ways and went their separate ways.
Bai Qi, Wu Ruomeng, and Cheng Chen immediately stopped a taxi after leaving the school. It took me about thirty minutes to get to the intersection where a few students were playing games last night. It's close to the suburbs and far from the city center, even during the day, there aren't too many cars passing by.
Chen Yu said that it is only when you go to a sparsely populated intersection that the possibility of attracting lonely souls and wild ghosts will increase. Who knows, a few bear children got away with it this time. If you want to blame them, blame themselves for their bad luck, Bai Qi and the others understand that I am afraid that in order to create a task for them, the space will not know where to get such a powerful ghost and put it into the plot this time.
"This should be the alley they are referring to." According to the description of the note, Bai Qi and the others quickly locked on to a remote alley directly opposite the intersection. Sure enough, they found a pool of dark red blood on the ground at the mouth of the alley.
Due to the sparse population, few people enter this alley on weekdays. Bai Qi also found a few shallow footprints on the ground, thinking that they should have been left by these children last night. "It seems that it is indeed as they say, after playing a game here, a terrible ghost has been recruited."
Bai Qi paced back and forth between the intersection and the alley, and then half-lay on the ground and observed for a long time, before patting the dust on his body and standing up from the ground. He pointed to a series of footprints that stretched outward and said, "You see, Qian Weiwei left from the east and walked to the crossroads, right?" ”
"Yes, the note mentions that she went to the intersection alone and burned the paper, and after doing this, the others cleaned up the residue on the ground, and then went down the alley to bury things under the trees over there." Wu Ruomeng closed the note, pointed to a few trees on the other side of the alley in the west, and said.
"By the way, there may be a problem with that porcelain bowl as well. The children said that the older the bowl, the better. So I thought I had to dig out the bowl and study it. Cheng Chen proposed.
"Makes sense, but let's not talk about this bowl first, you can see ......" Bai Qi pointed to a series of footprints on the ground and said: "Look carefully, this pair of footprints is very petite, and you can faintly see the traces of the soles, which are completely consistent with the pair of sneakers that Qian Weiwei wore on her feet this morning." ”
Cheng Chen admired his keen observation, and couldn't help jokingly saying, "That's right, Bai Qi, no wonder Lu Qing chose you as the captain." Your analysis is decent, I think you don't want to draw, and go to be a police detective instead. ”
"Forget it, I'm just a half-ass, I still learned this from Lu Qing and them. Be sure to look around carefully during the mission and not let go of any details. Bai Qi then regained his serious expression and continued, "Look at it again...... Behind Qian Weiwei's footprints. ”
"What's wrong?" Cheng Chen said, also bent down and looked at the ground carefully. If the light in the alley was too dark to see clearly, then at this moment, under the sunlight, on the ground of the intersection outside, she finally saw clearly. Behind Qian Weiwei's footprints, there is even a pair of footprints!
And this footprint is very, very shallow, and if you don't look closely, you won't notice it at all. However, it can be judged that the "owner" of these feet is not wearing shoes, but is barefoot behind Qian Weiwei.
In other words, last night, there was really a powerful ghost who quietly appeared behind them and followed Qian Weiwei for a long time! As soon as he thought of this, Cheng Chen immediately made up that picture in his mind, and then goosebumps rose all over his body.
Wu Ruomeng immediately reacted: "Didn't Zhang Jingrui also say it last night, I saw a black shadow behind her." ”
"Then to put it this way, according to the speculation of the positions of several people, and the range of Zhao Xiaoyang's line of sight......" Wu Ruomeng asked Bai Qi and Cheng Chen to restore the positions of a few students last night according to the notes, and then tried it, turned his head, peeked with his peripheral vision, and then gasped: "The black shadow that Zhao Xiaoyang saw should have been standing behind Qian Weiwei at that time." ”
"No, that ghost won't still be with Qian Weiwei, right?" Bai Qi was just about to contact Miao Yi and the others, when the mobile phone in his pocket rang.
He picked up the phone, and Chang Yunjiang's frightened voice came from the other side: "Oh no, there is a student, the one named Ding Jing, he is dead!" ”
