Chapter XXVIII. [Case 5] please enter the urn

The shopkeeper looked at us and froze, his face full of disbelief but inexplicable expressions. I lowered my voice and said to him, since we are here, we are here to solve this matter, and you don't need to spend any money, why don't you let us help? This colleague and I are both people who specialize in this kind of thing, and we can't be mistaken, but if you don't cooperate, the gods won't be able to save you.

When I said the last sentence, my tone was a little heavier, just to let him understand the seriousness of the matter. Because as far as the previous compass's reaction is concerned, although this ghost is not revenge, but it has a strong purpose, I have a hunch that it will not be easy to deal with, if even Hu Zongren and I can't do it together, ordinary people like this shopkeeper may not even be able to save it when they don't even figure out what is going on.

The shopkeeper put his phone back in his bag, then walked to the back door and closed the door, but before closing, he deliberately stuck his head out and looked around. It seems that most of them are the same as Hu Zongren's guess, he has always thought that the woman he had a tryst with here was let in through the back door every night after closing the main door, and his closing of the door showed that he did not see the woman outside the door, and it also showed that he had not completely believed what I said to Hu Zongren. Then he went back to the cash register and took a stool to the center of the store, where there were already some leather square stools, so Hu Zongren and I also walked over and sat down, and the three of us sat in this small shop like a triangle. He didn't give us a glass of water as if he were a guest, but sat very decadently, his hands clasped together, his thumbs twisted constantly, as if he were thinking about something that had happened in the past few days, and how much of it matched what we had told us.

I asked the shopkeeper, sir, what is your surname? He said his surname was Guo, and I asked Mr. Guo, when did you and the so-called woman in your mouth meet? He said that he had known each other for a few months, and it was only recently that they developed into a lover relationship. Hu Zongren asked, how has your lover relationship progressed? Mr. Guo shook his head and said, "It's just that I have made a lot of acquaintances, and there is no further progress, and every time I invite her to go to the movies or go out to dinner, she can always find a reason to refuse. At first, I thought that I was not sincere enough, and thought that I had a store of this size, and in a prosperous commercial area, I should be able to satisfy many women economically, so I often gave her some clothes, because she seemed to be only interested in new clothes.

I asked Boss Guo, how did you meet at the earliest. He said that it was a few months ago, one day he was really in the store to take inventory, and then do the accounts, about busy until more than eleven o'clock at night, about to close the door to go home, when he locked the roller shutter door, he saw a very haggard woman sitting on the ladder in front of my store crying. After speaking, he pointed to the door where we came in, and then continued, this liberation monument, there are a lot of people, there are many people who fall in love, and there are many people who break up, I don't know how many times I have seen this situation before, and I didn't care about it originally, but I kindly said to the woman, Miss, don't cry here, hurry up and go home. But the woman ignored me and cried herself.

Boss Guo said that he was quite late at that time, and this woman blocked the place where he closed the door, and he was embarrassed to drive them away directly when he cried so sadly, he wondered if he was drunk, and then wondered if he should call the police patrolling nearby and let them come to deal with it, but at this time, the woman suddenly raised her head and said to him, you don't care about me, let me sit for a while.

Boss Guo said that when she raised her head, she saw her facial features, crying pitifully, and she was very beautiful, in her thirties, he himself was a very upright person, and he also came into contact with many beauties in his own women's clothing on weekdays, and he was always very loyal to his wife. has also reached this point in age, and he never thought that when he saw this woman, a very unique emotion appeared in his heart. He was a little embarrassed to say, I have never seen this woman, but the first time I saw her, I had a feeling of first love when I was young, this feeling is lingering, I feel that since that night, I have been in love with her.

Hu Zongren and I looked at each other, because I couldn't associate the woman in the corner of the inverted eyes we saw in the DV video with the words "very beautiful", unless this Boss Guo's aesthetics are very alternative, but it won't be distorted to this point, it's like one day you see a talk show on TV, the guest is a short woman with a short eyebrow bone and a very protruding mouth, and a woman with big teeth has to say that she is a beauty, and non-returnees and rich people don't marry. A woman who feels extremely good about herself and likes to read humanities books like her bosom friend and storyteller, you will only treat her as a joke.

Boss Guo went on to say that when he heard the woman say this, he didn't know what to do and sat down and chatted with the woman, he said that he had talked to her about something, but he couldn't remember the topic of the night now, but he was sure that the two of them sat on the stairs at the door for a long time that night, and then the woman stopped crying and smiled at him, which made him feel a sense of accomplishment and felt that he could comfort this woman, so he invited this woman to sit in the store. It was too noisy outside and the ground was not clean, so the two continued to chat in the store until late at night.

Hu Zongren asked, don't you remember the topic between you at all that day? Boss Guo shook his head and said, not at all, but I only remember the feeling at that time, that is, it made you feel very comfortable and casual, including several meetings after that, he still remembered the content of the conversation between the two at the time, but he will forget it when he sleeps, and the yearning for love and the feeling of beauty are deepening day by day, and it didn't take long for him to feel that he couldn't extricate himself from this woman. Hu Zongren asked him again, then you fell in love with another woman, don't you feel guilty when you return home and see your wife? Boss Guo frowned and said, this is what he thinks is a little incredible, since he met this woman, he went home a lot later every day, sometimes his wife will ask where he went, if he is guilty, that is, he lied to his wife and said that he was busy reconciling accounts in the store or something, and his feelings for his wife have not decreased at all, but his love for that woman is increasing day by day. Boss Guo said that it is not the kind of love that wants to take possession of it, but a very beautiful yearning, and everything about this woman, every movement and eyes feel very charming.

Hu Zongren asked Boss Guo, do you meet almost every day at about this time? Boss Guo said that after the first meeting, he began to think about it, afraid that he might not have the opportunity to see her again in the future, and regretted that he didn't need a phone number or something for Lu. But when the store closed the next day, he found that the woman was waiting for him at the door of the store, so he happily welcomed in, and since then, almost every day at this point of closing, he can see this woman at the door or nearby, and every time Boss Guo invited her to sit in the store, the woman also smiled and agreed. Hu Zongren asked, then you haven't asked for a contact information or anything these days? Boss Guo shook his head and said, he remembered that he had asked about this, but the woman refused to tell him anything, and he had tried to follow the woman, but every time he followed the corner, he disappeared. But the woman appeared every day, so I gradually felt that the two sides had not reached that level, so I stopped delving into this issue.

Listening to what Boss Guo said was plain, it was weird to us that I couldn't say. If it were me, I'd probably have sensed that something was wrong with this woman. Boss Guo also said that since he felt that his sincerity was not enough, he asked the woman what she liked, and she said that she liked beautiful clothes, so he bought clothes for the woman almost every once in a while, as a way to be courteous. Hu Zongren asked him, what about the clothes you gave her? Where did it go? He said she wore it away. Hu Zongren said, that's a ghost, how can he wear clothes? Boss Guo said loudly, don't you take a bite of a ghost, okay? How do I know where she's wearing it? Besides, even if she's a ghost, people don't hurt me!

Hu Zongren shook his head and said helplessly, I haven't hurt you yet, I'll trouble you to look in the mirror by yourself and see what your eye circles have become, black or red, are you a raccoon? No matter what the reason is for a ghost and a person, direct communication between a ghost and a person, whether it is harmful or harmless, is not allowed, unless it is a professional psychic, it is like swimming in a river, people and water can hug each other, but the water can drown you. Mr. Guo is still stubbornly speaking, but from beginning to end, the two of you are saying that people are ghosts, what evidence do you have to convince me?

There is really no evidence, except for the video. But you can't show him it yet, otherwise you won't be able to continue the investigation. So I interjected and asked Boss Guo, what is the name of that woman? He told me that he didn't know Lu Dao's full name, only that she called herself Yun Zhen. I said, why didn't Yunzhen come tonight? Did you find out that we were here? After saying that, I took out the compass and held it in my hand, and shook it around, just like during the day, the reaction was still there. At this time, Boss Guo suddenly said loudly: "Who?" ”

Hu Zongren and I both wondered, is this guy a tailwind? We didn't hear anything. Then he said, "Oh, you... It's you...", and then turned his head and said to us with a little frightened face, "She's coming, and you're knocking on the door, don't you hear it?" We all shook our heads, thinking that this might be similar to the original recording, except for Boss Guo, I am afraid that no one else can hear it. So I made a decision at once, and I said you should open the door and let her in. He said he was scared, and Hu Zongren said Don't you don't believe that she is a ghost? I'm afraid of hair.

So Hu Zongren and I stood up and hid behind a hanger against the wall near the back door. Boss Guo went to open the door, I looked at the compass with the light in the gap between my clothes, and soon I saw Boss Guo walking past us, and said, sit down. As he said this, the compass reacted much faster than before. At this time, Hu Zongren shouted coldly beside me:

"Yunzhen!"
