Chapter 32: Catching Up
When Qin Wanqing carried the female corpse on her back and walked out of the compartment after Li Shuai, it happened that Xiao Mo, Wen Qiayun and others also walked out of the compartment where they were one after another.
"Looks like we're lucky this time."
Xiao Mo saw that everyone left the cubicle with the corpses safe and sound, he smiled happily, and didn't ask what everyone had experienced when they were in the cubicle, so he pointed to the location of Yangzi and the others and said:
"Let's go over and put the body down."
Everyone soon came to Yangzi and the others, and successively found a bed to put the body on top. After that, they waited for a while with Yangzi and the others, but they never saw anyone come out of the cubicle.
Xiao Mo remembered that before entering the cubicle, if you didn't count them, there were a total of nineteen participants. But if you check it now, the number of participants has changed to ten.
The nine people who disappeared, Xiao Mo still had some impressions, and the most impressive one was Xu Qi. Xu Qi was also among the nine people who disappeared, but I don't know if he was afraid to leave halfway, or if he had been killed.
After waiting for about ten minutes, someone in the crowd finally got tired of waiting:
"How long do you wait like this, maybe those people are afraid to go home?"
"Yes, no matter how you say it, there are many timid people in this world, and few bold people."
“……”
Hearing the complaints in the crowd, Yangzi thought about it and smiled to reassure them:
"Well, I'll go and look from one compartment to another now, and see if they're gone or if they're not out."
"Group leader, don't you mind if I go over and have a look, right?" Li Shuai suddenly said to Yangzi.
"Of course I don't mind, so let's go over now." Yangzi was not surprised in the slightest, and agreed without even hesitation.
Xiao Mo and Li Shuai glanced at each other, and the latter nodded understandingly. followed Yangzi to the side of the compartment.
Taking advantage of the gap between Yangzi and Li Shuai going to the other side of the compartment, Xiao Mo and Wen Qiayun also began to use some small means to get their mobile phone numbers from the hands of the participants.
After writing down the mobile phone numbers of these participants one by one, Xiao Mo did not forget to continue to ask them:
"Did you encounter something very strange when you were applying makeup to the corpse just now?"
"It's okay, it just feels like the corpse will open its eyes at any time."
"You feel that way, too?"
"Why do you have it too?"
"yes, there have been several times when I've had to stop and look at them for a while."
"Most of you are too timid to scare yourself."
"Am I timid? If you don't accept us, who will admit and coax whose grandson. How about it, dare not compare? ”
“……”
After Xiao Mo said this, the participants began to express their opinions, and the result turned into a meaningless war of words. But fortunately, this war of words is not excessive, and no one has made personal attacks, just two sentences between each other.
In the process of the participants arguing and raising the bar, Xiao Mo stood aside and figured out the matter.
It turned out that when everyone was applying makeup to the corpse, they vaguely felt that the corpse seemed to have changed somewhat, but when they really settled down. When they were engrossed in observing, they couldn't see the changes in the corpses at all, and it seemed that everything was just their illusion.
In addition, Xiao Mo also learned a clue that was very important to them. That's where Xu Qi went. According to one of the participants, when he came out of the cubicle with the body on his back, he happened to see a young woman and fled from the cubicle screaming. After that, he fled towards the door of the morgue without looking back, and kept shouting that there were ghosts in the process.
Later, another woman with a Sassoon hair confirmed that this was a young woman who fled in panic. It is the participant they have been paying attention to before-Xu Qi.
Xu Qi's mobile phone number had been saved by Wen Qiayun before, so as long as she was alive, they would be able to contact her effortlessly when this group gathering was over.
Moreover, everyone lowered their voices and exchanged with each other about what they had just encountered in the cubicle. There's really nothing to say about this, because the templates are all the same, at first it was found that the corpse had inexplicably changed, and then, this change began to become more and more obvious with the passage of time...... Until they take the painted corpse out of the compartment in time.
It seems that the corpse only changes when it stays in that cell, and once it leaves the cell, it immediately reverts to a motionless corpse.
Just when Xiao Mo and the others were talking in a low voice, Li Shuai and Yangzi had already returned from the compartment.
"It seems that you have guessed it, and those cowards have already escaped."
Yangzi shook his head helplessly, and then he said:
"Since those people are gone, the corpses they selected will not participate in the next evaluation. Therefore, the worst prize for the painting can only go to the heads of a dozen of us. ”
Just as Yangzi said this, Li Shuai also whispered to everyone:
"I followed the old pervert to see it, and there were only corpses in the various compartments, and no living people were found. But there were a few rooms that smelled of blood, and the people inside thought that nine times out of ten they had been killed. ”
"It seems that as I have felt before, this group gathering will not be easy." Speaking of this, Xiao Mo raised his head and glanced at Yangzi:
"Let's hear what the punishment is."
Xiao Mo was whispering to everyone here, and over there, someone in the crowd asked loudly:
"What kind of punishment is it, don't be too perverted."
"yes, you're going to have to tell me what the punishment is."
“……”
"Haha." Yangzi suddenly burst out laughing, and then he waved his hand at the crowd and said:
"Actually, things are not as you think, this punishment is just to make you do some physical work, after all, these corpses are we moved out of the freezer, and someone needs to put them back again.
So this punishment is to make the person with the worst painting responsible for putting the corpses back in the freezer.
This shouldn't be difficult for everyone to do, right? ”
Participants, you look at me, I look at you, obviously no one thought that Yangzi's punishment was just to carry the corpse. Although it can't match the thriller. But if you think about it, if these two dozen or so corpses were carried by one person, it would be enough to be tired and half dead.
However, since Yangzi has already put it forward, Xiao Mo and the others have no way to refuse, and after thinking for a while, no one in the other participants raised any objections, so this punishment measure can be regarded as a full vote.
Now that the punishment has been given, the next thing to do is to choose the unlucky ghost who has the worst drawing.
"Well, since there is no objection to the punishment. So now let's vote by a show of hands to elect the person with the worst drawing.
The person with the most votes is the one who has the worst drawing and needs to carry the body for a while. ”
After saying this, Yangzi took the lead in coming to the corpse he had chosen, and then said:
"So I'll start first, but before you vote for me, please observe the corpses that others have chosen, and then compare them to the corpses I have chosen. It's fair to me and to everyone else. ”
After Yangzi finished speaking, Xiao Mo and the others symbolically went around the other corpses, but it was just a formality. They didn't even bow their heads, because they had already decided to vote for Yangzi.
Because they are really very unhappy to see this man who is full of suspicion.
Just when everyone was about to raise their hands to vote, on the other side, Xu Qi, who had been concerned by Xiao Mo and them before. At this moment, he is running desperately in the hall on the first floor.
After Xu Qi escaped from the morgue, she didn't even catch her breath, and fled to the first floor without stopping. There was only one reason why she was so desperate. It was about five or six meters away from her, and there was a little boy who was giggling and chasing her behind with his hands outstretched.
I don't know if it's because it's too late, so the funeral home has closed the lights out, in short, when Xu Qi came up the stairs, the scene in front of her was only dark.
But even so, on the premise that there were chasing soldiers behind, Xu Qi didn't dare to stay for half a minute, so she could only go into the darkness hard. As for whether the route she chose was correct, whether she could follow this route to the gate of the funeral home, and whether the gate was locked...... She didn't think about any of that.
"Big sister...... Can you stop and wait for me...... Giggle......"
Behind her, there was the eerie call of the child corpse, the voice was obviously a little louder than the last time she heard it, and it could be seen that the child corpse was getting closer and closer to her.
Xu Qi was already scared to cry, because at this moment, she felt that in this empty hall, it was no longer just a child corpse chasing her anymore, but it was dense, and she couldn't count how many unclean things were pouring towards her from all directions.
"Don't ...... Chase me, okay...... There is a debtor who is wronged...... I didn't hurt you...... You don't come to you......"
Xu Qi cried and begged the child corpse behind him as he ran, but the laughter of the child corpse still lingered:
"Big sister...... Can you stop and wait for me for a while...... Wait I'm okay......"
"Please don't follow me anymore...... Let it go......"
Where did Xu Qi dare to stop, although the child corpse behind him didn't do anything to her, but no matter how he said it, it was a ghost. But at this moment, Xu Qi found that in his originally dark vision, there were more than a dozen white spots floating inexplicably, these white spots were only the size of a fingernail at first, but then they were enlarged at an alarming speed.
When Xu Qi reacted from the dazedness, more than a dozen faces that were either young, old, kind, angry, or vicious were stuck towards her.
At this moment, she was horrified to find that she had lost her mobility, and her heart was sinking suddenly. As for the dozen or so pale faces, at the moment when they were completely close, they shouted at her in unison:
"Stop...... Wait it out!! ”
Xu Qi was dizzy by the sound, and her breathing became extremely difficult, but when she recovered a little, behind her, the childish voice of the child corpse sounded again, and this time it was so close to her.
"Big sister...... I've finally caught you......"
Xu Qi subconsciously looked back and saw that the child corpse was riding on her waist, looking at her "giggles" and laughed. (To be continued......)
