Chapter 386: Childhood Friend

But it's impossible not to notice, after all, ghosts don't have projections, and their feet are off the ground, no matter how powerful their cultivation is, it won't change much.

I don't know what to do at the moment? The ghosts in the elevator told me about some of the hauntings that had been in the building before, saying that there was a person who was cooking at home, and who knew that the whole house was on fire while doing it, and I didn't know what was going on.

"Of course we didn't do that, we always thought there were ghosts on this building, but no one else died except our family? We felt weird! It was the woman who was holding the child, and the child was crying as if she were sad to hear her mention the previous events.

I thought to myself that these ghosts should not lie to me, otherwise I would not have such good patience to talk to me, although I know that most of the ghosts who die like this are very fierce, but there are some exceptions, just like these ghosts near me, I feel that in addition to being a little dull, it is actually easier to get along with.

Since I still have time, I continue to ask them, "If so, can I help you see the building?" ”

"Of course you can, you should be overdone, we want to get out of here, because it's really not fun to get on and off the elevator like this every day!"

"Good!" It's the first time I've met such an easy-to-talk ghost, and I died unexpectedly, what the hell is going on? It's as if they didn't have any resentment, did they also want to die at that time?

Strange things I really encounter all the time, now those ghosts don't speak, I continue to wait for the security guards to come and open the elevator, when the people arrived, they used tools to force the elevator door open, I found that the ghosts behind me were long gone.

If this kind of thing is put on a normal person's body, it is estimated that it will be frightened, when I left the elevator and ran straight to the upstairs of Tianrui, who knew that when I went up two floors, I actually fell to the fourteenth floor and reached the top, this building did not have the fifteenth floor, so which Tianrui lived on the fifteenth floor?

Standing on the fourteenth floor, I suddenly felt that the world was spinning around me, and a sense of fear swept through my body, and at the same time, my forehead was dripping with sweat like rain, could it be that Tianrui was really dead? Otherwise, how could he not have found it?

Scared, I found that the phone rang again, this time I opened the phone, and found that it was Tian Rui calling, so I connected and answered: "Tian Rui, where are you?" ”

"I'm not here, I'm at home, where are you, are you almost there?"

"Is your current home on the fifteenth floor of Huize Apartment?"

"yes, what's wrong? Haven't you been? ”

"But I'm already at the end of the fourteenth floor!"

Hearing me say this, Tian Rui seemed to realize something, and the whole person was silent for a long time, but then there was a hoarse sound like a finger running through the glass on the phone.

Then the phone hung up and my heart stopped beating, what happened, how could this be? Where is Terapace? If this building didn't have fifteen floors, where would I have been?

Frightened, I hurriedly walked downstairs, because the elevator is still under maintenance, so I can only take the stairs, and I can see that the doors are open in the units on each floor, but the inside of each room is empty, as if no one has ever come to live!!

It seems that the ghost on the elevator just now didn't lie to me, this building has been unoccupied for a long time, but I am a ghost who has drunk and talked with that buddy on the fifteenth floor?

I'm starting to feel a little bit like what happened to Choman, but why is this happening? Tianrui didn't go to the last trip, so there shouldn't be an accident?

I was scared, the more I thought about him, the more bottomless my heart became, and finally came to the third floor, but at this moment there was another team on it, and that team was not anything, all the ghosts were dressed in linen and filial piety, and there were ghosts beating drums and blowing suona in front, and there were four ghosts in the middle carrying a coffin made of paper, to put it bluntly, it was a team of mourners, it seems that this is the ghost that those residents met before, right?

I didn't have time to be afraid when I saw them, so I said directly: "I am a cultivator, why do you wandering ghosts always stay in this building and are unwilling to leave!" ”

"Oh!" One of the ghosts in the team turned his head slowly when he heard me, and now the people around him stopped what they were doing, and the paper coffin they had lifted was also placed on the ground.

"You are a cultivator, can you find us the dead man? We came to see them off, and who knew that when we went upstairs, the elevator fell and all of them died! ”

"Ahh Who are they? ”

"Relatives, their family is dead, I'm his cousin and I hope I can help them!"

I see, I see, it seems that there are two teams of ghosts in this building who are constantly looking for each other? But because the family was on the elevator, and these people were on the stairs, they couldn't find each other, and these people were looking for people before they died, so they always thought about finding each other before leaving.

When I learned about the situation, I said to the funeral procession, "I know where the family you are looking for is, come with me!" ”

Saying that, the ghosts followed me to the elevator, and sure enough, they met, and I said to them in the back, "Now you should go and reincarnate, let's go!" ”

"Thank you! This gentleman, I don't think we'll meet again, and if it weren't for your help, we probably would have to stay in this empty building forever! ”

I nodded, thinking to myself, why didn't the government demolish it? If so, it is estimated that it will not be haunted a long time ago.,I thought about waking up about Tianrui again.,This guy hasn't been found yet? When I left the building, I wanted to go to the parking lot to find his car, and if his antique van was there, it would prove that he had lived here before.

I came to the parking lot and really found that the van was here, but ah, the van was already full of dust, not at all like the one I had sat in before, I went to find some people to look at the car, and they said that this car is estimated to have not been driven for several years, and this style is so old-fashioned, people nowadays will not use this kind of at all, it is not worth it at all!

The people thought I was selling cars, and when I told the reason, they left, and I left the neighborhood alone, intending to call the police.

Back to the apartment I just fell asleep and sneezed, no choice but to quickly get out of bed to take medicine, if I didn't find out early this time is estimated to be the same as the last time my grandmother almost died, I had a severe cold, at noon I drank a lot of water, and then ordered takeout to eat, almost sick much better.

In the afternoon, I called Tianrui's phone, hoping that this guy could help me, but I found that his phone couldn't get through, I went to his house and knocked on the door and no one answered, he wouldn't be out of the house, right? Why are all the phones turned off?

After 48 hours and still no news, I was scared and helped him call the police, not expecting that my two friends would disappear at the same time.

On this day, I left Huize apartment and went to the bar where we had a drink before, and sat here, at this moment I happened to meet Qiu Man's father, and when he saw me, he seemed to be very excited and said to me: "It's you, you left in a hurry last time, and now you see you again, do you still help me investigate the cause of my daughter's death?" ”

"Yes, didn't you call the police too?"

"It's been reported a long time ago, but there's still no news! Don't know what's wrong? My daughter died a terrible death, and if I hadn't ignored her at work, I guess she wouldn't have been like this! ”

"I can't blame you, she will follow us on that trip anyway, if she really had an accident at that time, then it has nothing to do with you!"

"But I don't think that's the case!?"

"Huh? Why did you suddenly say that again? ”

"When I came back, I found that the furnishings in my daughter's room were the same as when she was in elementary school, and I don't know what happened."

No way? I was extremely surprised to hear Qiuman's father say this, to be honest, I hadn't been to Qiuman's room and didn't know what was going on, but now that my father said this, I had the urge to go to her house again.

So I said the request in my heart, her father originally wanted to find someone to help, seeing that I was so enthusiastic and asked me to answer the small villa, and after entering the door, I went directly to follow him to Qiu Man's room, and after entering, I found that this room was really the same as Qiu Man's father said, and it actually retained the appearance of a primary school girl, a desk and chair, and a backpack printed on the door with the blue cat's naughty three thousand questions, at that time I remember that I also liked to watch this TV series very much when I was a child, which is even more proof, There is a big difference between this place and Qiu Man's childhood.

In addition, the whole room was full of many models, and there were some rag dolls, all of which were Barbie that girls liked, and at this moment her father seemed to see something, and found that the time was 12 o'clock at noon and went outside, I thought that someone from his family was coming, so I continued to stay here.

Who knew that after a while, when I left Qiu Man's room, I found that the hall outside was full of many meals, and there were three bowls, so I asked Qiu Man's father, "Are you going to invite me to dinner?" But how can there be three bowls? ”

"Oh, this gentleman is Qiu Man's classmate, right? Come over for dinner, shall we? She just came back! "Listening to what Qiuman's father is saying now, I feel extremely strange, what's wrong with him? Actually said that I was Qiu Man's classmate? I've grown up like this.

Just when I didn't know what he was doing, he stood up and pulled a chair away, then poured a glass of water for an empty seat, put a chicken wing on top of the bowl of rice, and said with a smile: "Qiu Man, you must be tired at school today, so you must eat more, my father is very careful in making these chicken wings!" ”

Listening to Qiu Man's father, I felt more and more incredible, how could she seem to think that Qiu Man was still alive, could it be that he had a mental problem after the loss of his daughter? Originally, I thought this was the case, but in my confusion, the door opened with a click, and a middle-aged woman with luggage walked in, saw me and Qiuman's father eating, and instead of talking to him, she said to me, "Huh? Who are you? Why did you come to my house? ”

"I'm Qiu Man's friend, you can't be her mother, right?"

"Qiu Man's friend? No way? She was dead at such a young age, how could she have a friend as big as you? You must be kidding! ”

"This" I wanted to say something, but Qiu Man's father became extremely excited at this moment and scolded at the woman: "Who said that our family's Qiu Man is dead, isn't she fine?" Have we all grown into big girls and are sitting across from us? ”

When he said this, I looked at the empty seat, but saw nothing, and the woman told me something because she had taken me aside.

It turned out that Qiu Man died 15 years ago when she was still 7 years old, and that day she went to the river to play and drowned with a few friends, and then his father thought she was going home for dinner at 12 o'clock, so it would be like this, but didn't he go home some time ago and say that Qiu Man went on a trip?

Could it be that she really lived in this house before she came to me? Maybe she came back from the underworld, but she was only 7 years old when she died, why do I look like a 22-year-old girl, this seems illogical?

I didn't tell the woman about it, she looked at her husband still talking nervously into the empty seat, but sighed and told me to get out of here.

Now it's no fun for me to stay here any longer, so I'm leaving, because of this abnormality of Qiuman's father, I have more questions about Qiuman's death, and now there is one more version of her death, why drowned 15 years ago, who is right, who should I believe?

Confused, I want to go home, after all, it's almost dusk time, it's easy to encounter evil things outside, walking on the way home, it's the subway station again, I bought a ticket to go to it, bored and took out my mobile phone to play and watch, it felt very boring, turned it off and smiled bitterly at the crowded people in front of me, what's going on lately? There were so many oddities that my head didn't stop moving for a minute.

When I got home, I wanted to open the door, but who knew that the door would open automatically before I could open it, and I thought it was my father who came back, so I changed my shoes and said inside: "Dad, are you back?" If you don't cook, I'll do it for you! ”

Who knew that no one in the hall was talking, I changed my shoes and walked inside, who knew that the moment I arrived in the hall, I found a girl sitting on the sofa, this girl was not anyone, it was Qiu Man!!

I looked dumbfounded and asked her in surprise, "Are you back?" ”
