Compared with the female ghost, Zhao Yao's curiosity about Xu Ye is greater now. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Xu Ye returned home, sat quietly under the ginkgo tree, sipping tea, and waited for Old Man Zhong to come back.
Old man Zhong didn't know what he was busy with, and now he finally appeared. "Miss Xu, aren't you going to work? Why are you sitting there again? Old man Zhong still had the same good old face, and walked slowly with a cane. At this point, his smile began to be disgusting.
As soon as he heard this familiar voice, Xu Ye, who was staring at the ginkgo tree stupidly, came back to his senses.
"Master Zhong, come and sit." Xu Ye beckoned to Old Man Zhong.
Old Man Zhong was very surprised, and he felt very incredible in the face of Xu Ye's sudden attitude.
"Ah, this is the first time you've called me."
Old man Zhong put away what he had just said, pretending to be pleased.
"Hehe, I want to ask you something."
Sure enough, it was the same as Old Man Zhong thought, and Xu Ye began to be proud of him when he asked for it.
"I knew there was something, otherwise I wouldn't have been so proactive."
"You also know that I'm not very good at communicating with people and talking straight, so I won't beat around the bush."
Old Man Zhong knew that she was indeed like this, and if she said something wrong, Old Man Zhong might be extra gracious. Seeing this, you may think that Old Man Zhong is a tolerant and generous person.
"Tell me what I know." He poured himself a cup of tea and savored it.
"Is there a ghost in this house?" Xu Ye said it very directly, and he didn't want to be euphemistic. Hearing this, Old Man Zhong paused, and his brain was spinning rapidly, how to give Xu Ye an answer.
"If you think there is, there will be, and if you think there is no, there will be nothing." Old Man Zhong's answer was the same as if he didn't answer.
"Then I want to ask, how did your wife die thirty years ago?" Xu Ye couldn't be more stupid, it turned out that Old Man Zhong was the key object of suspicion, so he spoke so directly, for fear that Old Man Zhong didn't know that Xu Ye was suspicious of him. Xu Ye's words exposed her purpose of looking for Old Man Zhong, the cunning Old Man Zhong is still an old actor. He was sad.
"Committed suicide by jumping into the river, and the body can't be found, hey!"
"Why? Is she having a bad time..."
Xu Ye always thought that the female ghost in red was murdered by so-and-so, otherwise he would not have avenged her.
"She doesn't want to marry me, since I can't get it, he can't think about it!" Old man Zhong was sad after all, and he began to show his flaws and shouted angrily.
Xu Ye was stunned, Old Man Zhong's words were really not the right donkey's head. She was even more suspicious of Old Man Zhong, and her inner feeling told her that it was definitely not as simple as jumping into the river, and Old Man Zhong was lying.
"That..."Xu Ye was interrupted by Old Man Zhong before he could finish speaking.
"Don't ask anymore! I went in first. "Old man Zhong's emotions are out of control, does he have schizophrenia? That's a big change.
Xu Ye looked at the back of Old Man Zhong leaving, and it wasn't until he slammed the door that he dialed Zhao Yao's phone.
"Hello?" Zhao Yao was very busy, and if the person who called him was for personal matters, he wanted to scold whoever it was.
"It's me, come to my room at night, and I'll tell you something."
"Night... At night? Zhao Yao began to blush and embarrassment when he heard Xu Ye say this.
Before Zhao Yao could finish speaking, Xu Ye hung up the phone.
This anti-transfer, Zhao Yao's blushing and embarrassing faces just now all disappeared.
The night came quickly, and Zhao Yao took the time to go home after finishing the work at hand. He went up to the second floor and knocked on Xu Ye's door.
The door slowly opened, but the person who opened the door was not Xu Ye. It's the female ghost in red! Zhao Yao was so frightened that his legs had already begun to weaken. Thinking that he is a big man and a policeman, he can't be cowardly at a critical moment! This red-clothed female ghost had been dangling in front of Zhao Yao a few times before, Zhao Yao thought it was a hallucination or something like that, but today he saw the deity.
"Xu Ye!" Zhao Yao didn't know where he had the courage to shout into the room, he was worried about Xu Ye's safety.
"Come in, you."
Zhao Yao was relieved that Xu Ye was fine, and the female ghost also consciously let go of the door. But he still had some concerns, and was stunned for a while before cautiously and tremblingly entering the room.
"It's... What's going on? Zhao Yao was very puzzled why the female ghost was in this place, and Xu Ye had no sense of fear, could it be that Xu Ye fell for the evil of the female ghost?
"For people like me, you can see if you want to see it, but for people like you, if you want you to see it, you have to see it."
"Do you have yin and yang eyes?" Zhao Yao exclaimed.
"Hmm. It's my job to collect ghosts, but only if I help some of the spirits fulfill their unfulfilled wishes. ”
"Why is a girl of yours doing such a wicked job, aren't you afraid?"
"I don't have a choice other than this, my friends who knew me before avoided me when they knew that I had yin and yang eyes! This is also a heavy job, I was an orphan since I was a child, and my adoptive mother didn't have a family for me. Now that she's sick, that's the kind of work I can do, and I haven't studied much. I'm used to dealing with these ghosts. Actually, they're not as scary as we think. ”
At that moment, Zhao Yao finally knew why Xu Ye's temperament was so withdrawn and unkind, and suddenly a desire to protect came to his heart. Guilty of cheapness...
Zhao Yao was silent, and Xu Ye spoke again.
"What is your unfulfilled wish?"
She did this on purpose to show Zhao Yao, wanting Zhao Yao to also know the meaning of the female ghost.
After Xu Ye finished speaking to the female ghost, the female ghost pointed to the ginkgo tree and then to the old man's room.
Zhao Yao was stunned, "What... What do you mean? ”
"She is supposed to be Old Man Zhong's wife who died thirty years ago, and she died on her wedding day. I asked Old Man Zhong today, and he said that his wife jumped into the river and died, and then said that others should not think about what he could not get. You listen to the recording, I can't explain it clearly. ”
Xu Ye played the recording that he had prepared before talking to Old Man Zhong.
Zhao Yao's eyes widened, and at this time he had completely forgotten that he was a policeman.
"On the first day I moved in, Old Man Zhong told me that he loved his wife very much, and the style of this house has always been kept in the style that his wife likes."
Zhao Yao said unspeakably, "Could it be Old Man Zhong.... Killed his own wife? ”
"His wife asked me to avenge her, and all the clues point to Old Man Zhong." Xu Ye did not directly state that Old Man Zhong was the murderer.
"Let's look for evidence again, we can't jump to conclusions." After all, the police are the police, and everything must be evidenced.
And they didn't know that at this moment the old man had already heard all the conversation at the door.
Old man Zhong began to think about how to solve these two troublesome guys, the secret of thirty years is about to be solved, it must be stopped, it must be stopped! In his eyes, Xu Ye is the evil ghost caller, and he has a deep hatred for this kind of person. The murderous intent has risen, if Zhao Yao doesn't get involved in this matter, maybe Old Man Zhong will let him go, but curiosity kills the cat, and now it's too late. How can two newborn calves compare with this cunning old fox?
