Chapter 9: Pawnshop Hell
"Hello."
The policeman didn't enter the door, and after saying hello, he showed me a bag of information in his hand.
"That's right, about the previous case, the bloodstain test results extracted from the scene are not your grandfather Mr. Yang Guofeng's, in addition to those who have died in the house robbery, there are other people's, obviously the other party has escaped, because I am worried that the other party will come back to retaliate, so I suggest that Miss Lin can accept the protection of our police."
I looked at the information in general, heard the words of the police, looked up, was stunned for a moment before remembering the other party's words, and immediately shook my head, "Oh, no need, I hired two bodyguards to ensure my safety." ”
Well, let's just count it as two bodyguards.
"Bodyguards?" The policeman looked at the store curiously.
"Uh-huh, professional." I blocked the police's view with my body and gave a thumbs up, "No problem, guaranteed." ”
The policeman was sluggish for a while, still not at ease, "Miss Lin, I still think you should accept the protection of our police, after all, the other party is a vicious thug, and I don't know how many people there are on the other side, according to our investigation, there are at least ten people alive, and we have already deployed in hospitals and pharmacies and other places." ”
This is indeed a bit dangerous, there are only three people in my shop, and one is a seriously injured patient, and there are more than a dozen of them, if you can't estimate the strength, it is also a problem, but there is another problem......
Are these police officers sure to be reliable? I can't directly say that the other party is a group of Taoist priests who are comparable to cultivating immortals.
"That's really hard for you, but I really don't need it, I trust my bodyguard."
I returned the bag to the police, "Also, if there is any news about my grandfather in the future, please let me know as soon as possible." ”
The policeman didn't insist, "Then, okay, Miss Lin, be careful yourself, we will notify you if we have news." ”
Sent the police away, turned around and went back to the house, the tea in the cup was already cold, and the bitter taste was even stronger, Jiang Wan and Ling Ge remained silent at the same time and did not speak, and another guest came in the afternoon to redeem his family heirloom.
The pawnshop itself does not have much business, most of the time it is idle, there is nothing to say to each other, and the whole shop is terriblely depressed.
This summer seems to be rainy, it began to thunder and rain in the evening, I closed the store early, Jiang Wan and Ling Ge went back to the house, I cleaned up the store, and looked at the account book again, I did two transactions today and haven't written it down, by the way, the one who was ashes today, did I only give the ticket, not the money.
"Misremembered."
Suddenly, an eerie voice came from behind me, the cool breeze rubbed against my neck, I rubbed uncomfortably, turned my head to look behind me, there was a darkness, no one.
Turning his head to continue keeping the ledger, the only light above his head flickered twice, and it was completely darkened, and the old eerie voice came again, "I remember it wrong, you didn't count the after-tax." ”
The lights came back on, and I shuddered.
Tax? I thought about it, how much is it after tax? I used to only count income and expenses, and taxes and everything came from my grandfather, "How much is the tax?" ”
"You do the math yourself." The voice replied.
"Okay." I nodded, suddenly realizing something, and jerked my head up, "Who's talking?!" ”
The eerie cold wind was still flowing around my neck, with a biting chill, I touched my neck, a little strange, and turned my head around again, but except for a flickering light in my hand, it was all dark and I couldn't see anything.
I looked back strangely and continued to look at the ledger, and I always felt that something was wrong, and when I turned my head, it was still pitch black, but in the dark corner, there was a cluster of white shadows, the kind of white that seemed to exude fluorescence.
Looking closely, it was a little old lady squatting in the corner wearing a white shroud, her face was already like a cracked earth, and her face seemed to have tiny scales, which were miserable and very weird.
Before I could stand up and scream, the white shadow instantly came in front of me, almost to the extent that my face was close to my face, my hair came out all over my body, my heart stopped and then accelerated rapidly, and the rhythm of 'bang bang bang' was as clear as it was in the silent night.
The aura on her body was eerie and cold, with the smell of rot and mold.
"Ahh
I held it for a long time, and finally let out an earth-shattering scream, and then I pushed it directly with my hand, took two steps back, and the stool was also tripped over, I turned around and ran out.
"What's wrong?" The two people who heard the sound behind quickly ran over, Jiang Wan ran almost first, and after I bumped into it, I hugged it directly and didn't let go.
"Ghosts, ghosts, ghosts, ghosts!" Although it's not the first time I've seen it, I'm still scared, and I'm already very good if I don't get scared.
Jiang Wan hugged me and looked at the store, "Ghost? How can there be ghosts here? ”
Ling Ge also walked up, and his body was wet and looked like he had come over in the rain, "The pawnshop is protected by a formation, and ordinary lonely souls and wild ghosts can't enter without being invited." ”
"There are ghosts, there are really ghosts, it's in the store!" I buried my head in Jiang Wan's arms, stretched out my finger and shouted vigorously behind me.
Ling Ge entered the store, looked inside and out, opened the door and looked at the door, and came back with water vapor stained all over his body, "The formation is good, it has not been destroyed, and there is no reflection of spiritual power in the store." ”
I pulled my head out of Jiang Wan's arms, cautiously closed my eyes and turned around, then slowly opened my eyes, looked at the store, and didn't find the old lady ghost I saw just now.
Suddenly it was strange, "Huh? What about ghosts? I saw her just now. ”
"You're not going to be dazzled by the ledger." Jiang Wan reached out and knocked on my head, "It won't be too tired to fall asleep and dream." ”
I want to smoke him, you only dream at night," I really saw, the ghost of a little old lady, wearing a white shroud, her face was miserable and white, and it was cracked, and her body was full of tiny scales, and it didn't look like she belonged to humans before! ”
Jiang Wan and Ling Ge glanced at each other, "Did you really see it?" ”
"Of course!" I nodded violently, because I was telling a ghost story just now? It's funny.
Ling Ge frowned suddenly, and in an instant, he was in front of me, so fast that I thought the ghost was back just now, but before he could open his mouth, he pinched his face, "Can you see the ghost?" ”
"Hmm." I nodded stunned, "Like, it seems to be." ”
"You opened your eyes?" Ling Ge asked again, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper.
"You don't know?" Jiang Wan looked surprised, "I thought you knew, she is the grandson of Senior Yang, it should be normal to be able to see it." ”
