Chapter IV. Case 1: Confronted face-to-face
When she turned around and retreated to the bedroom door, Miss Qi was still standing obediently in the red circle. She looked at us with a suspicious look that seemed to say, "Are you two hiding something from me?" I looked at Hu Zongren and felt that it was better to let him say this kind of hurtful words, because I knew what he was thinking. Hu Zongren was a little embarrassed and said to Miss Qi, how long have you been married to your husband?
Miss Qi replied in confusion that she had been married for more than three years. Then she asked Hu Zongren, why did she ask this? Hu Zongren was a little difficult to speak, so he asked me for help with his eyes, and I nodded ruthlessly, telling Hu Zongren that these things still have to be told the truth, even if it will hurt people. So Hu Zongren opened the gossip bag, and then asked Miss Qi to look at the purple underwear in the bag. When Miss Qi saw the underwear, her face obviously changed. From the very beginning, Hu Zongren and I knew that this thong was not hers, because the underwear hanging on the balcony was all light-colored, even if the two of them played boldly, they would never have such a strong soul reaction attached to that pair of pants. So either this pants didn't belong to Miss Qi at all, or when they bought this pants, they simply bought old goods worn by dead people.
Sure enough, Miss Qi was very surprised and asked, this... What is this? Where did you find it? She blushed as she spoke, and was interrogated by two strange men with a pair of erotic panties, and I was shy if I changed it. Miss Qi's answer made us realize that she didn't know about the existence of this thing at all, so the reason why it was hidden in the resonance mouth of the innermost guitar under the bed must be something wrong with her husband.
So I said to Miss Qi, we found these pants from that guitar, and this is the root of your haunted house this time, when you were sleeping earlier you heard someone scratching the bed board, and that ghost came for this panties. At first I wondered if it could be some kind of perverted fetish ghost, but then I thought about it and realized that maybe it was very low, considering that when we checked the house earlier, we found that the ghost's trajectory was directly through the door into the bedroom, which shows that it has a strong purpose and a clear goal. Add to that its previous actions, such as breaking cups, breaking the mirror in the bathroom, including scratching the bed board in the middle of the night to make noises and blowing on the back of your neck, all of which are deliberately designed to get your attention.
I said to Miss Qi, first of all, I can be sure of one thing, this ghost should just have an obsession in his heart and can't let go, if he doesn't provoke it too much, it shouldn't cause attacks or damage to people, otherwise you don't know how many times Lu Dao has died in the previous month, judging by the size of the agility I measured. And when we sprinkled incense ash earlier, even when we picked up the panties, although the ghost's reaction was obviously stronger, it still didn't mean to hurt us, otherwise we wouldn't have stood here and told you this. I then said to Miss Qi that this ghost must be in a trance, that it was doing what it felt was right, and that it was not even aware that it was doing so, and that it would scare the living.
After listening to what I said, Miss Qi seemed to be a little relieved. So I went on to tell her, first of all, it doesn't look like a demon, so we don't have a reason to be very rough with it, but we have to be kind to it and send it on its way, and before we can do that, we have to figure out what the root cause of it is. Now the root cause has been found, it's this panties, but it's obvious that these pants aren't yours, you said that your couple's home, how could there be an inexplicable extra pair of other women's, and it's also stained with ghost panties, what do you think is going on.
After going around for a long time, I found that I still had no way to tell Miss Qi directly that we suspected your husband of cheating, so I could only rub it like this and let her understand it herself. Sure enough, Miss Qi said, you mean, my husband is having an affair? Hu Zongren and I looked at each other, and then Hu Zongren said to Miss Qi that at present, this is the biggest possibility.
Miss Qi obviously couldn't accept all this, she squatted on the ground with her head in her hands, as if thinking about something. I said to Miss Qi, look, from the moment I came in, I found that there must be men living in this house, but I haven't been here for a long time, and you said that you are married, and when I checked in your bedroom, I also saw the wedding photos of your husband and wife, and your husband works outside all the year round, so he may have made a mistake for a while. Personally, I hate people who are emotionally unfaithful, even if that's none of my business. But seeing that Miss Qi was so depressed, I couldn't help but comfort her.
Miss Qi squatted for a while and stood up, and then forced her composure and said, Then you two talk about it, what should we do now? There was a cry in his tone. I said to her, let's do it, you calm down first, after all, it's our suspicions now, and there is no evidence. Let's see if you can call your husband and ask him to rush home as soon as possible, and let's make it clear in person? Miss Qi said that her husband had never believed her saying that there were ghosts in the house, so how could she deceive her. Hu Zongren took over and said, isn't this easy, you just said that you were sick, a little serious, and you didn't dare to tell your parents and friends, asking him to come back quickly, and talk about everything when he comes back. Hu Zongren went on to say, if he doesn't come back if he dies, I guess it's not interesting for you to continue to live as a man.
According to Hu Zongren's instructions, Miss Qi called her husband in front of us, and her husband was very anxious on the other end of the phone, so he said that he would take the earliest flight back, which made Miss Qi feel a lot more relieved. I thought to myself that if we blame her husband, I hope he won't reimburse us for the fare.
Since the root of the haunting has been put into the gossip bag by Hu Zongren, in fact, Miss Qi can sleep in her room from that night, but because there is still some smell in the house, and there are still some traces of ghosts, I think even if she is allowed to sleep, I am afraid she will not be able to sleep. So I asked Miss Qi when your husband would come back, and she said tomorrow. I said you'd better stay at home tonight, find a relative or friend, talk to you, and spend the night. Considering that she may still wonder if her husband is really unfaithful or something, it is better to have someone to accompany her.
Miss Qi made a calm look and said yes, so Hu Zongren and I carefully tidied up the bedroom, opened the window, and put away the red rope, so that the smell and ghost reaction in the house could dissipate along the window. I told Miss Qi that tomorrow after your husband gets off the plane, you will call us immediately, and we will rush over.
So I never knew what kind of mood Miss Qi was in that night, and I didn't know what the purpose of Lu Dao's case was assigned to us by the people of the Xuanyuan Society. At noon the next day, Hu Zongren called and said that he had received a call from Miss Qi, and that he would rush to the outside of my community first, and then the two of us would go over together. When we arrived at Miss Qi's house, it was her husband who opened the door.
Seeing us coming, her husband was puzzled, and then asked what are you two doing? Miss Qi answered and said, these two masters are the masters I invited, the house is haunted, and you don't believe it when I call you, thanks to these two masters, I caught the ghost and discovered a secret, otherwise, I would still be in the dark, like a fool. Judging from the conversation between their husband and wife and Miss Qi's choked tone, the two had already quarreled before we arrived.
When Miss Qi's husband heard his wife say this, he probably thought that he had also been deceived back, and very impatiently pushed me and Hu Zongren and said You get out of here, who let you come, just when he closed the door, Hu Zongren stretched out a thigh stuck in the door, but I don't know if the road hit his vital point, I only heard Hu Zongren call out with a very ** tone. Seeing that Hu Zongren was blocking the door, I opened the door and grabbed Hu Zongren and broke in. After entering the door, I said to Mr. Qi, "I'm sorry, our employer is your wife, not you."
Hu Zongren hummed and rubbed his inner thighs, and Miss Qi's husband saw that he couldn't stop us, so he had no choice but to close the door. When we sat down, he said to us angrily, what did you two pretend to be ghosts say to my wife, and tricked me all the way home, and as soon as you entered the house, you made trouble with me, saying that I was sorry for her, and I did some unsightly things behind her back, and I was tired and tired outside all day to make money to support my family, what are you two guys trying to do, why do you want to harm me so much? I said to him, sir, don't worry, I tricked you back to solve this matter, because we won't rush to show the ghost the way until we find the root of the matter. Your wife doesn't know a lot about the situation, so I need to ask you face to face.
Miss Qi's husband looked a few years older than us, less than forty. A little bald, short and chubby, he looks like the kind of person who works hard and doesn't care much about image. He sat on the sofa and said angrily, then you say what do you want to know, let me tell you first, if you maliciously slander and plant falsehoods and destroy our family relationship, I will definitely sue you! Hu Zongren rolled his eyes and slowly took out his gossip bag from behind him. Unlike when he saw the bag yesterday, Hu Zongren also sealed a charm at the mouth of the bag after returning home, he loosened the rope on the bag, and then rolled the belt mouth down like rolling sleeves, until he could directly see the underwear inside. Hu Zongren reached out and grabbed the underwear with two fingers, shook it in front of Miss Qi, and then asked him contemptuously, what kind of thing do you see, how is it, is it familiar?
When Miss Qi's husband saw the underwear, his face immediately turned pale. Half-open mouth and asked, where did you find this? Could it be that ... Is she back?
