At seven o'clock in the morning, Wang Hao was woken up by the phone, and he picked it up with sleepy eyes, it was Lu Xiao who called: "You come to the provincial hospital in the morning, someone wants to see you." ”

After another half an hour, he finally got up slowly, after a simple wash, he put on thick clothes and went out, just out of the door of the police room, he saw Chen Yan standing at the door, her face was red from the cold, her hands in her pockets, and her feet kept stomping.

Seeing Wang Hao, Chen Yan smiled and said, "You finally came out." ”

Wang Hao was very surprised: "You ...... How did you end up here? ”

Chen Yan whispered, "I'm looking for you." ”

"How long have you been here, why didn't you knock on the door and call me?"

"I'm afraid you haven't woken up yet, hehe." Chen Yan's face was slightly red, "I woke up at six o'clock, and I haven't been able to sleep since then." ”

Wang Hao looked around and said, "Oh...... Officer Lu wants me to go to the provincial hospital, and I may not be able to accompany you. ”

"I'll go with you, I know how to get to the hospital, just show you the way!" Chen Yan winked at him.

"Okay."

The corners of Wang Hao's mouth also showed a hint of a smile.

Wang Hao and Chen Yan took the bus to the inpatient department of the provincial hospital, and when Chen Yan was squinting his eyes looking for a guide, Wang Hao walked straight to a staircase at the end of the corridor that was tightly guarded by the police.

One of the policemen recognized Wang Hao, and heard Wang Hao say that he was called by Deputy Captain Lu, and let them go without questioning.

As soon as he came down the stairs to the corridor on the second floor, he saw Lu Xiao hurriedly running along the corridor.

"You're finally here, He Muzi pointed out that I have to see you, I can only trouble you to come." Lu Xiao looked apologetic.

"Well, it's not troublesome, but who is He Muzi and why are you seeing me?"

"He Muzi is one of the four people who had an accident at Villa No. 72 a few days ago, and he is the only survivor now."

"What does it have to do with me, I don't know her."

"I told her about you, for now, there was an incident in Villa 72 but in the end it was only you, she wants to see you very much now, it is estimated that it is related to the incident of Villa 72, you should cooperate with our police investigation, okay?"

Wang Hao thought about it and nodded.

The police were much tighter in He Muzi's ward on the second floor than in the stairwell, and the door was guarded by two heavily armed policemen.

He Muzi lives in a spacious single room, which looks a lot like a fully functional two-bedroom residence, although it is not large, but it has all kinds of living facilities.

When Lu Xiao and the others walked into the ward, a graceful and well-maintained woman was talking to the two policemen: "Let's talk about it in a few days, how can Muzi accept your inquiries now?" ”

The two policemen looked embarrassed: "We are also very aware of your daughter's situation, but she is the only survivor of the 116 case, if she can provide us with some valuable clues earlier, we can also close the case sooner." ”

"No way!" The woman said categorically, "My daughter needs plenty of rest. Who are you? She asked unceremoniously to Lu Xiao and the others who had just walked in the door.

The two policemen turned around, nodded and said, "Deputy Captain Lu." ”

He Muzi's mother looked at Lu Xiao, who was dressed in a capable police uniform, and said with a sinking face: "I said that I can't ask, but I can't, do you still need our old He to call your director?" ”

At this time, there was the sound of rushing water in the bathroom, and then, two nurses walked out with He Muzi in her arms, her face was pale, her hair was tied in a bun at the back of her head, her shoulders were in a cast, and her hands were hung from her chest with a bandage.

Seeing Lu Xiao, He Muzi smiled weakly: "It's Officer Lu." She tilted her head to look at her mother, "Mom, I asked Officer Lu to bring a friend over." ”

He Muzi's mother looked a little embarrassed, as if to make up for her disrespectful words and deeds just now, she reluctantly smiled and beckoned Lu Xiao, Wang Hao and Chen Yan to sit down.

Two nurses helped He Muzi to lie on the hospital bed, covered the quilt, and raised the bed so that He Muzi could talk to the visitor comfortably.

"You're Wang Hao, thank you for coming." He Muzi shrank in the snow-white quilt and looked at Wang Hao with a smile.

"Officer Lu called me here." As soon as the words came out, Wang Hao felt a little inappropriate, "I also want to see what I can help." ”

He Muzi smiled slightly, looked up at Lu Xiao and them: "Officer Lu, Mom, can you please leave for a while, there are some things I want to talk to Wang Hao alone." ”

"Oh...... If you're not feeling well, feel free to ring the bell and call me. Mother He greeted the two nurses, Wang Hao waved her hand to Chen Yan gently, and several people walked out of the ward.

He Muzi was lying alone on the hospital bed, and he didn't speak for a long time, and the two people in the room seemed to have a tacit understanding, and no one took the lead in breaking the peace.

After a long time, He Muzi asked, "...... them Are they all dead? ”

"As far as I know, they're all dead." Wang Hao sighed and said.

He Muzi's eyes were a little stunned, and she didn't speak, and after a while, she fumbled and took out something from the drawer of the bedside table, it was a mahogany photo frame, and in the photo frame was a group photo of four people, and she gently rubbed it with her fingers.

She sat on the bed, staring at the three faces that seemed to never wake up for a long time, the rescue in the past few days has made He Muzi very thin, and the usual has been judged to be the same, the doctor said that she is still a little weak, and the cause can not be found.

The ward was not big, Wang Hao stood up, and after walking a few steps, he had already reached the bedside, He Muzi covered his mouth with one hand, staring at the motionless photo frame in his hand.

Her whole body trembled, like a malaria person who was sick, strings of tears rolled down from her eyes, but the cry was held in her mouth, she seemed to not believe it, and seemed to have to accept it, just carefully rubbed the picture frame little by little, but her eyes never left the three pretty and hearty faces.

The grief that had been desperately suppressed finally broke free from between the fingers, and a woman's soft but shrill cry gradually sounded in the small hospital room, the sound was like the fingernails of a dying person scratching glass, both frightened and desperate.

Finally, He Muzi could no longer support his body, and lay down with his back against the pillow.

"I'm sorry...... I'm sorry...... It's all my fault...... We shouldn't have gone to that place! ”

Five minutes later, Wang Hao handed over a pack of toilet paper.

"Thank you." He Muzi smiled gratefully, "I lost my temper just now. ”

"It's okay."

"Thank you so much, thank you for coming, Wang Hao."

Wang Hao watched her blow her nose heavily, and her gestures were no longer as calm as when they first met.

He Muzi is very beautiful, this beauty is inherited from the elegant and noble mother just now, but the eyebrows and eyes are not as cold as that aunt, but delicate and flamboyant.

Now, she gasped, and the little bit of strength in her eyes that she had tried so hard to pretend was gone, giving birth to some peace and gentleness.

Wang Hao watched very sympathetically, watching the faint sunlight outline a thin light on the other party's face, watching those red and swollen eyes suddenly open slowly, looking at the corners of her mouth slightly upturned, and watching her ask softly in a somewhat hoarse voice: "Isn't it rude for a boy to stare at a girl like this?" ”

Wang Hao was stunned and blushed: "Yes...... I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. ”

He Muzi seemed to be extremely tired, closed her eyes gently, and just when Wang Hao thought she was asleep, he suddenly heard her whisper: "But, they can't come back, and they can't see it if they want to." ”

Wang Hao was stunned and looked at her in a daze.

"Wang Hao, I don't want to be like this anymore, always lying on the hospital bed so weakly, my mind is full of the appearance of their innocent deaths." He Muzi closed his eyes and said as if taking an oath, "I will never let myself be so embarrassed again, I will be strong, I will avenge them and my brother, whether the enemy is a human or a ghost!" ”

After saying that, she seemed to be extremely tired, and lay back on the pillow.

Wang Hao looked at her suspiciously: "Do you need me to do anything?" ”

"You're an amazing person." When He Muzi talked about Wang Hao, his voice rose slightly, "I heard Officer Lu say that you have also bumped into Villa No. 72, ghost." You're terrified, but in a month you've made a miraculous recovery. ”

"No, it's the doctor's good medical skills." Wang Hao replied solemnly, with a calm face.

"No, no, no, I have experienced death myself, so I know more about the horrors of Villa 72, which can not be saved by the doctor's medical skills." He Muzi looked up with a low smile, looked ahead and said, "Because even I have to admit that it is a terrible place. ”

"Hey, what the hell is wrong with you? You won't be scared and confused, right, how worried your mother must be about you when you say that? ”

"No, I didn't, I just didn't believe in fate." He Muzi suddenly lowered his head, put his forehead against the photo frame, and said in a low voice, "I believe you also think that there are ghosts in that place, I was just thinking, why can it wantonly deprive people of their lives, while we, like marionettes, are helpless, sitting and waiting for death?" ”

Wang Hao pursed his lips, he felt that his throat seemed to be blocked by something, and under He Muzi's guilty and expectant gaze, he spoke extremely hard: "Yes, the taste of waiting for death is not comfortable." ”

The face on the other side, which had always been very gentle, gradually appeared with a smile: "So, don't you want to break it?" ”

He Muzi suddenly said in a calm voice: "Wang Hao, I seem to be able to feel that my life is passing little by little, the weakening of that vitality, as if being stripped of the cocoon, scraping you one by one, making life worse than death, obviously I haven't checked out any symptoms, but I am becoming more and more like a dead person!" ”

"Wang Hao." He Muzi looked at him lightly and smiled again, and the smile was so bright that Wang Hao remembered the warm sun in winter.

Her eyes, hidden behind the frame, twinkled with anticipation, and he heard her ask softly, "Can you save me, help me, I'm sure you can break this curse!" ”

As if confused, Wang Hao looked at her hopeful eyes, trembling and asked softly, "Why me?" ”

"Don't die." He Muzi said softly.

"Don't die?" Wang Hao chewed on this sentence with some confusion.

"Wang Hao, will you help me?"

"I ...... How can I help you? Wang Hao clenched his hands a little weakly.

"I will provide you with all the things you need, and you, go and investigate Villa 72, once the truth is found, maybe we will all be saved, and no one will die in vain."

Wang Hao frowned, bit his lip and said, "But...... But what if I can't find out? ”

He Muzi straightened up and said confidently: "I believe in you, because, I can only believe in you without any choice." ”

In the corridor of the hospital, people come and go, patients in hospital gowns, family members supporting patients, beautiful nurses in white nurses' dresses, children in the ward resisting injections crying, parents softly comforting coaxing, doctors patiently comforting voices, all the images and sounds suddenly became clear at this time.

"But...... What if I refuse to do this? ”

He Muzi smiled miserably: "I know that since you have survived from that great calamity, you should not take any more risks, but leave it far away." However, I really don't know anyone else who would believe that there really was a ghost in that house, and who else could help me. ”

Wang Hao was speechless, looked at her silently, and suddenly said, "That night, what happened. ”

He Muzi's whole body was shocked, and the movement of rubbing the photo frame also stopped, but soon she gritted her teeth again and slowly and easily stretched her arms into her sleeves.

"Everybody's crazy."

He Muzi buttoned the hospital gown one by one with an expressionless face, tidied up his collar, leaned over slightly, and straightened his waist again: "We used the pen fairy to summon the spirit, but we didn't expect an accident to occur in the process of summoning the spirit, I don't know who asked how fast the pen fairy can turn, probably angered the pen fairy, and the pencil that was tightly held in the hands of the four of us seemed to lose control and flew out of my hand."

After that, I felt dizzy in my head, and I saw that the three of them had blood-stained eyes, and they fought each other, punching and kicking at first, and then smashing the vase, and they came and beat me again, and I was knocked unconscious...... When I woke up, I was already in the hospital, and they were all dead. ”

Wang Hao suddenly felt a deep sadness.

"Do you know who asked that question?"

"I don't know." He Muzi shook his head decisively, "I have never heard that voice, the house was very empty at that time, and the sound was like coming out of thin air through the cracks in the wall." ”

"So, you're really not going to help me?" He Muzi looked at him almost beggingly.

"I ...... I'll go back and think about it...... Villa 72...... I really don't want any more involvement. Wang Hao was distraught and unwilling to continue, so he turned around and walked outside the ward.

Walking to the door, he hesitated, feeling that it seemed too cruel to turn around and leave like this, and said vaguely: "Don't think nonsense, I won't really care about your business, I just ...... It takes time to think about it. ”

Hearing this, He Muzi's face was much better, and his eyes softened.

"So, we'll meet again, right?" She asked in a whisper.

"Yes, yes."

"Thank you, Wang Hao." He Muzi smiled.

After Wang Hao left, the ward fell silent again, and He Muzi sat blankly for a while, and cast his eyes on the photo frame on the bed.

Seeing it, He Muzi seemed to have some vitality again.

The sunlight pouring in from the window sprinkled on the mirror, and the small room had a little warm atmosphere because of the swaying light, He Muzi stared blankly at the dancing highlights, and gradually transformed into four young boys in school uniforms in front of him.

She smiled, but two lines of tears fell from her eyes.

"We used to ...... Wandering all day long...... On the green hills of our hometown, we used to ...... Affection ......" He Muzi applauded softly and sang in a low voice, but he couldn't sing because he couldn't stop choking, "Friendship lasts forever and ......"

Since you are alive, it means life, it means hope.
