"Who are you?"

The door opened a crack, and a certain girl stood behind the door and looked at me cautiously, her eyes were very clean, vaguely scared, and her voice was a little trembling.

"I am" I looked at her, suddenly understood something, and then smiled: "I'm a gentleman who specializes in handling dirty things, and your grandfather asked me to help you." ”

"What sir?"

"Ghost catcher." I said, and I could clearly see hope in her eyes.

The girl asked me tremblingly, "Can you really catch her?" ”

I nodded, and said categorically.

"Yes."

Immediately, the girl welcomed me into the house and politely poured me a cup of tea.

Sitting in the living room, she was a little bit at a loss, or rather, she was a bit introverted and didn't like to deal with strangers.

The cat seemed to be a little curious about her, and circled around her feet, meowing twice, and losing the feeling of being a great enemy before.

So the thing was out of her body, but

Why do I feel like it's still here?

"Can you tell me about that thing?" I tentatively asked, "How did you meet it?" ”

The girl was silent for a moment, then nodded.

"By the way, sir, what's your name?"

It seems that the title of sir is a bit awkward for her, which is why she asked me this question.

I said, my surname is Yi, you can call me Brother Yi or whatever.

"I can usually see strange things." She said.

I frowned, because her grandfather didn't tell me this, didn't her grandfather know about these things?

She seemed to know what I was wondering about, and helplessly explained: "I told my family when I was a child, but they didn't believe me and beat me up a few times, and I didn't dare to tell anyone since then." ”

"You can talk to your grandfather and he'll believe you." I said.

Hearing this, the girl smiled and said very directly, if you can't tell your grandfather, he will be worried.

"What strange things can you see?"

"Some vague people, I don't know if they're human, but"

"Let's tell me how you met that thing, right?" I asked, for I had lost interest in what the girl was seeing.

Ghosts are divided into real bodies and phantom bodies, and the ghosts that can be seen by the yin and yang eyes are basically the phantom bodies of ghosts, and the real bodies are difficult to see once.

The things that this girl saw should be the phantom body of the ghost, because the real body of the ghost is not humanoid, maybe her eyes also belong to a kind of yin and yang eyes, and the bottom of the ranking is a kind of yin and yang eyes that can't even see the phantom body.

"I seem to be a bit introverted." She still has a clear understanding of her character: "I don't like to deal with people at school, and over time, no one wants to play with me." ”

In her story, I got a pretty little idea of what it was all about.

In fact, these things happened longer than the old man's time of knowing the Tao, and more than a month ago, these things had gradually happened.

The cause of the whole incident is very simple, it is because of the game that ordinary children love to play.

Rock, scissors, paper.

"My grandfather went grocery shopping that day, and I stayed at home to do my homework." She said, looking back at the direction of the toilet, her face showed some signs of paleness, as if she was suppressing the fear in her heart, and her eyes were very complicated: "After I finish my homework, I have nothing to do, I want to find someone to chat with but I can't find it, and there is no one to accompany me when I go out to play, so I can only be the same."

"Talk to the doll?"

"Hmm." She nodded: "You should know the way, I usually do."

"Your grandfather has said it all, let's move on to the subject."

Hearing me say this, she shuddered a few times and spoke slowly.

She was also bored that day, holding the doll to look in the mirror, as usual, making grimaces or something to entertain herself, it sounded quite interesting. (I've seen her doll, it's a puppy, it's cute)

Later, I didn't know which tendon she was wrong, and she might be in a panic, so she played rock-paper-scissors in front of the mirror.

"I said to the mirror that day, if I lose, I'll play with you, and if you lose, I'll play with me." She said a little embarrassed.

I smiled understandingly, "Go on." ”

I don't think her actions are childish and funny, but I think this girl is quite distressing.

"I was also dazed that day, and I can't remember how many times I've played rock-paper-scissors with myself, but"

In the evening, when her grandfather was about to return, all of a sudden, she noticed that something was wrong.

In the mirror, the speed of reaching out is obviously slower than himself.

When his hand stretched out to make a stone gesture, the person in the mirror was still holding his hand, just finishing the gesture of stretching out.

When she found out about this, she was completely awake with a shiver, and she didn't have the feeling of wanting to sleep in a daze.

Looking at the person in the mirror, she intended to stop all her movements and react as a normal person would.

That's right, she wanted to run away, but unfortunately she couldn't move, as if she was fascinated by the ghost, she continued to play rock-paper-scissors again.

When she reaches out and makes a scissor pose, the person in the mirror comes out with a cloth, that is, she wins.

Suddenly, the girl found herself able to move.

When she saw her smiling face in the mirror, she finally couldn't help the fear in her heart, and ran outside while screaming frantically, but the door of the toilet was locked, and at that time, she faintly heard some chaotic music.

No, it should be the sound of gongs and drums during singing, as if there is also the sound of erhu.

Listening to the sound in her ears one after another, she was also frightened, and then she banged on the door frantically, calling for help, hoping that her grandfather would save her, but she didn't notice anything.

The person in the mirror was walking outside, and getting closer and closer, to the back of the day

"When I looked back, her face was already on the mirror" Her eyes were full of fear, and her body trembled slightly, and it took a long time to recover.

When she calmed down, she slowly told the rest of the story.

"Every night I would see a person who looked like me sitting at the head of the bed, looking at me condescendingly, her eyes were different from mine, she only had the whites of her eyes" she said, "I thought I couldn't see her during the day, but that day I went to the closet to get my clothes, and when I opened the door, I saw her curled up in the closet, staring at me."

"Meow~~"

The cat barked, jumped up from under the sofa obediently, lay on my lap, and listened to the story with me.

"I asked her what the hell she was going to do."

As soon as the words fell, the girl's face was already full of remorse.

"She said that according to the gambling contract, she lost and wanted to play with me, but she wanted to stay in my body for the time being."

"It's noisy enough." I rubbed my temples, "Where is she now?" ”

"Before you came, she went to the bathroom."

I groaned, touched the cat's head, and stood up with a smile.

"You wait here first, I'll go to the toilet and have a look." I said, glancing at the living room with the cat in my arms, then turned and walked in the direction of the toilet.

The toilet door of the old man's house has been around for a certain number of years, and the wooden door has been covered with mottled marks at some point, and many of the patent leathers have fallen off, looking like a person who has peeled off the skin, missing a good piece.

When I opened the door and entered, the first thing I saw was the large mirror facing the door.

I lit a cigarette, took a deep puff, and placed the cigarette case and lighter on the dresser.

Looking at myself in the mirror with a tired face, I scratched my head and asked.

"Are you in there?"

The self in the mirror was still looking at me blankly, smoking like me, and the tiredness in his eyes was about to overflow.

As I got closer, I looked closely at the bloodshot in my eyes and yawned.

"I have to rest and rest lately, or I will die suddenly on the street sooner or later."

"Meow."

"I heard you love to play rock-paper-scissors?" I looked in the mirror and asked, "Let's play, if you lose, you give me the fuck out, if I lose, I'll give you my life." ”

After saying that, I stretched out my hand, and it was a stone, and the person in the mirror was also like me, out of the stone.

And then.

Cloth, cloth.

Scissors, scissors.

"Why don't you win me?" I muttered, and suddenly I felt someone watching me from behind.

When I looked up, I saw that the girl who had told me the story was standing by the door, staring at me with gloomy eyes, and the black iris was gone, all of which were whites.

The corners of her mouth turned up slightly, as if she was happy, and then she raised her hand and slashed the blade of the boning knife in her hand at my neck.

"Hiss!!"
