Chapter 534, the hunter becomes the prey

07080101010101 As soon as I got back from my flight, I went to the police station and saw a letter from my death assistant. The letter was delivered yesterday afternoon. It's very simple, with just one line of address and one sentence: "Death, right here." I'm death's assistant, and I'm leading a qiē. "

If it had been just a letter, it might have been seen as a prank by someone, but just yesterday evening, two hours after the letter arrived at the police station, someone had died at the address mentioned in the letter, and a man had committed suicide by hanging himself from an old ceiling fan in his room!

The senior police force took this matter very seriously because of the relationship with the letter. The police have reason to suspect that it was not a simple suicide, but a murder, and the killer is provoking the police.

Let's start with the case of peeling beer. Ji Jiulan has been investigating the death assistant, and this time he took the initiative to provoke. The case was naturally handed over to Ji Jiulan. She rushed to the scene of the suicide last night, and all kinds of evidence showed that it was just a suicide, and the suicide note left by the deceased was also found at the scene.

Subsequently, Ji Jiulan contacted the deceased's relatives, 99 friends, and 99 colleagues. From these people's mouths, it was learned that the deceased's wife ran away with her lover more than a month ago, and he drank alcohol every day and delayed his work, was fired from the company, and his career and feelings were not going well, which eventually led him to choose suicide.

Ji Jiulan thought of Zheng Li, and she suspected that this man's suicide might be the beginning of another series of deaths, so she was eager to contact me and ask me to help her confirm whether things were as she expected.

I arrived at the police station at noon, and there was no lunch break or anything, and after reading the letter 99 to understand the general situation, Ji Jiulan and I immediately set off to the place where the suicide occurred, an old hotel in the mountains located in the ski resort base. Pill anti-low.

Out of the city to the east, it only takes about an hour's drive to the ski resort base on the outskirts of the city. Every year after December, after a few heavy snowfalls, many people come here to ski, but I've only heard of it, but I've never been here because I don't know anything about snow sports and have no interest in it.

Ji Jiulan drove a four-wheeled battery car, along the highway all the way to the direction of the resort base, but when she was about to reach the entrance, she turned into a fork in the mountain, and then continued to move forward, the mountain road became narrower and narrower, and the surroundings became more and more desolate, and the hotel we were going to seemed to be in this barren mountain.

After about 20 minutes of driving, the asphalt road turned into a dirt road, and at the end of the dirt road, I finally saw the hotel.

The hotel is a European-style three-story building, and the area is not particularly large. The iron fence gate at the main entrance is open, but there is no parking in the yard, and it looks very deserted.

"When you came yesterday, was there anyone living here?" I asked.

Ji Jiulan nodded and replied, "Yes, but not very much, the owner of the inn said that it is the off-season, and when it snows, there will be more." "

After a question and answer, the car also drove to the door of the hotel, and when I walked through the gate to the entrance of the hotel, a very charming woman came out of it, because the car drove very slowly, so I could see her appearance very calmly.

She should be 40 years old, she looks very beautiful, and she walks with the unique mature charm of a woman of this age, this kind of stable feeling is something that young women can't learn if they want to, and it is also a kind of temperament that does not exist in Ji Jiulan at all.

"You should learn more from her so you can still be a little feminine." I whispered to Ji Jiulan in the car.

She glanced at me disdainfully and replied, "I don't need anything like that!" With that, she opened the door and got out of the car, nodding and smiling at the mature woman, and walked over.

"It turned out to be Officer Ji, but I didn't expect to meet again so soon." The mature woman smiled and greeted Ji Jiulan.

"I brought someone here." As she spoke, Ji Jiulan raised her hand towards me.

"This must be Mr. Chang?" The mature woman said as she turned her gaze to me.

"My name is Chang Le, so I don't need to add the word sir." I replied with a smile.

She nodded and smiled at me again, then turned to look at Ji Jiulan and said, "So do you still want to investigate that matter today?" "

"Well, you might need to talk to your guests." Ji Jiulan said.

"As long as it doesn't disturb their rest, it's okay, after all, everyone is here for this kind of thing. Please come inside. As she spoke, she took a step to the side and made a "please enter" gesture toward the hotel.

The "incident" in the woman's mouth was obviously a reference to the suicide that happened yesterday, and the sentence she added afterwards also made me very concerned.

As I understand it, the meaning of this phrase is that there is some kind of rumor that people will stay in such a desolate place in order to be able to witness the rumor, and the content of this rumor will be more or less related to death.

"Did you own this hotel?" I asked the woman as I walked inside.

"It's my husband's property, he died ten years ago, and only this hotel was left for me." The woman replied.

"Are there any rumors about this hotel? I listened to what you just said, as if the people who came here have another purpose. "

"There are indeed some rumors, the old house, the location is out of the ordinary, it looks like the home of a vampire in the movie." She pursed her lips and smiled, "But those rumors are all false, where are there vampires in this world." "

I smiled at her, and then I didn't ask anything else, and I guess she couldn't answer one, two, or three when I asked.

The landlady took us directly to the second floor and came to a room in the innermost part of the corridor, there was no house number on the door, only a police seal at the door to make it look different.

"If there's anything you need me to do, just ask, I'm on the first floor." The landlady said.

Ji Jiulan nodded to the female boss in thanks, then opened one side of the seal, pushed the door and entered the room.

The moment the door opened, a man's legs appeared right in front of me! I subconsciously glanced at Ji Jiulan, but she didn't seem to notice the change in my expression, and just walked into the room on her own and passed through the man's legs.

"It's cold." Ji Jiulan quickly rubbed her arms.

"That's for sure, you just walked past his lap." I say.

Ji Jiulan frowned suddenly, she seemed to understand what I meant, and then raised her finger very covertly and pointed at the fan.

I nodded gently at her.

Ji Jiulan stopped talking, she cautiously retreated to the windowsill, and then didn't dare to move.

The room was covered with thick flannel curtains, and the sunlight from outside could not penetrate it, which made the room look very dim. The man was still hanging there, his face bruised, his tongue sticking out long.

Sometimes, people see flashbacks, like what I'm seeing now. But this is not normal, there are people who have a grudge after death, but they will not become ghosts and still hang here, unless they are bound by some kind of force, and they can't leave.

I rummaged around the room, but I didn't find anything out of the ordinary, and I used the Eye-Opening Charm on myself, but I still didn't find anything.

Finally I tried to reach out and grab the man's leg to pull him off the fan, but something I never expected happened: my hand passed through the man's leg and couldn't touch him at all!

Something is wrong, very wrong!

There are many types of yin and yang eyes, but no matter which one they are, the key to the problem is not in the eyeballs! A person's eyeballs with yin-yang eyes are no different from ordinary people's, and even if my eyeballs are transplanted to an ordinary person, he should not be able to see ghosts or still not be able to see ghosts.

Why? Because of the ghost gate!

My ghost gate was originally behind me, so when I was a child, I either watched ghosts with my peripheral vision or the moment I turned around. But when I was seven years old, I turned around and followed the night ghost into the netherworld, and from that moment on, the ghost gate was actually no longer behind me, but in front of me.

Through the ghost gate in front of me, I can see ghosts with my eyes and touch ghosts with my hands, and since I was seven years old, this thing has been as normal as breathing.

But sixteen years later, for the first time, I couldn't touch the ghost, and I could think of only one explanation: there was some kind of power that closed the ghost door in front of me, but the door was not closed tightly, and it left a gap for me, so that I could see the ghost but could not pass my hand through the ghost door.

Is this a set set for me by the death assistant?

He wants to ruin my ability to catch ghosts?

The moment the thought came to me, I was almost unsteady on my legs! I stumbled a step, then turned and snatched the door, and ran out of the hotel door with a puff of smoke.

It's now past two o'clock in the afternoon, and although the sun has set in the west, there is still plenty of light, and there are no ghosts outside in this weather! I looked around, and there was a relatively shady place in the barren forest, and I ran there and immediately opened my eyebrows, and released the white tiger ghost against the sun.

Although it was in the shade, smoke immediately rose from the white tiger's body when he appeared.

I didn't care about anything else, and reached over and touched the white tiger's head.

The soft touch immediately came from the palm of my hand, I touched the white tiger, I touched the ghost!

"Whew!"

I let out a long breath, and my heart, which had been hanging in my throat just a moment ago, fell back into my stomach. When I touched my own head again, it was already full of sweat.

After a false alarm, I also closed my eyebrows, and as soon as the white tiger came back, I immediately felt a tingling pain all over my body. Needless to say, it was the stimulation that the sunlight caused to the soul of the white tiger, and now it transferred this stimulation to mine as well.

"Hey! Happy Days! Ji Jiulan's voice also came from the hotel at this time, and she shouted as she ran towards me: "What's wrong with you?" What do you see? "

"It's true that I saw something, but the key problem is that I can't touch it." I explained vaguely.
