Volume 1: Top Secret Fuse — Chapter 20: The Laboratory Haunted
The next morning, as soon as the school opened, I waited for the head of the physics department outside the office door of the physics department, and it took me half an hour to look forward to him. I ran over in three steps and two steps, and the ants on the hot pot shouted at him, "Yesterday, just yesterday there was a strange person in the laboratory." ”
"Oh. The head of the physics department entered the office door unhurriedly, picked up the water cup on the table, poured some water in the mineral kettle, took a sip, returned to the desk without hurrying, sat down in the chair, and said to me lightly: "Do you see that strange man?"
I followed the head of the physics department back to my desk in the office from the position of the mineral pot, who knew that he would give me a sentence so unhurriedly, I was stunned for a moment, and said to him noisily: "No, but I didn't see a strange person push me open the locked door with such a gentle push last night, and jumped from the window on our sixth floor, and then disappeared." ”
"Oh, I see. The head of the physics department picked up a pen unhurriedly, began to concentrate on correcting the students' test papers, and said to me without raising his head: "You go to Lao Li of the maintenance department and ask him to send a worker to repair the door of the laboratory, if not, don't lock the door again." ”
"Oh, what!" I was anxious, grabbed the pen in the hand of the head of the physics department to correct the test papers, and shouted to him noisily, "I mean! Last night, a strange person was found in the laboratory!"
"What are you arguing about!" The head of the physics department stood up, grabbed the pen in my hand, and said to me angrily: "It's not a day or two that ghosts have been in the laboratory at night, and the police can't do anything about it. Why don't you look at the lab like this? Oh, do you really think that you came to apply for a job because of the words of Mr. Han, who applied for the job in quantum mechanics, thermodynamics, theoretical mechanics, and electrodynamics? You don't want to think about it, why should you find an administrator in such a university physics laboratory? There is no administrator in the entire experimental building, so why do you want to be such an administrator in such a room in the physics laboratory? And allow you to build a marching bed in the laboratory. Oh, the school is full of food, and the money is not spent by the other party, so the physics laboratory is too big and lacks a marching bed. Lack of you?"
I listened to the words of the head of the physics department, stood there and opened my mouth, and it took me a long time before I reacted and shouted at the head of the physics department: "Oh, you have known that there is a problem in the physics laboratory before you came to me." Tell you, I'm not doing it anymore. I turned around in anger and walked out the door. When the head of the physics department saw this, he hurriedly grabbed me, and with a smile on his face, he smiled at me and said, "Young man, young man, don't be so impulsive." You see you also know that this laboratory is haunted at night, so I will allow you to eat in the school cafeteria every morning, lunch and dinner. I'll pay you back, what do you think?"
I stopped, glanced back at the head of the physics department, pursed my lips, and said unhappily, "Three meals a day will be sent to me?
"Oh, let's discuss it again!" The head of the physics department took my hand and yelled at me: "You say you are a homeless man, called Hanako, where can you eat and live without this job?"
"Hey!" I was so angry that I turned around and pointed to the tip of the physics department's nose and asked, "Who said I was a bum, little Hanako!"
The head of the physics department smiled, took my hand and still didn't let go, and with the other hand pushed the black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and said to me: "You see that you don't have a place to live here, and the clothes on your body haven't changed for a month." As he spoke, he pinched his nose at my body and sniffed it, wrinkled his nose and said to me, "I said you guess you haven't taken a bath for more than a month, right? If you stay, I can still grant you free access to the school's bathhouse." ”
I looked at myself helplessly, I really looked a little like Hanako, thinking that if I left here, there would be no good place to go, but I couldn't just agree to the head of the physics department! I pointed to his nose and said fiercely: "That's it! You, you have to give me a salary increase!"
"Up, up. I'll give you a hundred dollars a month!" the head of the physics department agreed to me if he didn't want to. I opened my mouth wide and cursed in my heart: This iron rooster has only risen by a hundred. The head of the physics department smiled and coaxed me and said, "Young man, you can't be so dissatisfied, you see that our school has provided you with food and accommodation, and even the problem of bathing has been solved for you." You see, you don't ask for so much, one hundred, the salary will increase by one hundred every month, and it will be wrapped up in me. I've got this old face out of my mind, and I'll apply to the school for you right away!"
"Just a hundred dollars a month, I have to apply to the school! and show my old face!" I muttered unhappily.
"Heck, the school has a school rules and procedures. This university doesn't raise idlers, and you say you don't do anything, just eat and sleep in that physics lab......" The head of the physics department has to go on. With a wave of my hand, I interrupted his nagging, took out an invoice from my pocket, shook it in front of his eyes, and said, "Don't say anything, I've got an invoice for this marching bed." ”
When the head of the physics department saw that I had agreed to his conditions, he took the invoice in my hand with a smile, patted me on the shoulder and said to me, "Young man, eat well and sleep well." I'll leave this physics lab to you. ”
"Oh, okay. I pulled away his hand on my shoulder with one hand, and shouted, "I'm going to find Lao Li in the maintenance department." He turned around and walked out of the physics lab.
Behind me, the head of the physics department shouted to me: "Hey, I said, the ghost can't stop him from entering and exiting the door lock, you tell Lao Li to fix the door, don't install the lock." It is also convenient for ghosts to enter and exit, and the school can also save a few dollars. It's not troublesome to repair the province!"
"Shut up. I walked out of the door of the physics department's office without looking back, and listened to the chatter behind the head of the physics department: "You said that this young man now doesn't cherish a job. The temper is still so big!"
I ignored the head of the physics department and went straight to the maintenance department.
"The door is broken again!" Lao Li in the maintenance department heard me say that the door of the physics laboratory needs to be repaired, and said to me impatiently: "You said that your physics experiment will be repaired twice in three days. Let's just talk about this lock, I don't know how many times I've repaired it. ”
"Isn't this a ghost in the lab who broke the door lock?" I scratched my head, and said to Lao Li with a little embarrassment: "Last night, that ghost reached out and gently pushed, and the door lock was broken. ”
When Lao Li heard me say this, his face bloomed with joy, and he asked me curiously, "Have you seen that ghost?"
"Well, just take a look. And he ran through the window. "I said in my heart, this school, and the center of Cannes laughed. The key universities are haunted every night, and no one cares. I couldn't help but ask Lao Li in the maintenance department: "How long has this ghost been here?"
"Hey, you're the first person to come into contact with this ghost. As soon as Lao Li heard me talk about the ghost, he became interested, and while carrying the maintenance box, he walked out of the house, and said, "Let's go, I'll also go and see what the door has become." I followed Lao Li out of the maintenance department, and along the way Lao Li opened the conversation: "This ghost, I've been in your physics laboratory for a while, but no one has ever met him." At first, I found out that the physics lab was messed up the night before. Later, after a long time, I found someone on night duty. The person who took over the night shift stopped working for a day, saying that it was haunted in the physics laboratory. You say, who believes this haunted thing! However, every day when I enter the physics laboratory during the day, I find that the night before was a mess again. The school changed to a night shift again. As a result, it's still the same. The new night shift guy said it was haunted again, so he quit. The school called the police, but the police squatted overnight and found nothing. And just like that, it dragged on for months. The police didn't care, but they couldn't catch the ghost. If you want to say that you can continue to stay when you see that ghost face to face with him, you are really the only one. You say you have the guts. ”
"You say there are really ghosts, and the reporter doesn't report it. I muttered, "I really am." Why didn't you know in advance that this physics lab was haunted, and you came to work in such a ghostly place? ”
"Oh, there's no basis for this, as soon as I heard the haunted police, they immediately blocked the news. Lao Li said to me: "You say that a place of higher learning that promotes science is haunted all day long. The impact is not good. ”
"That's what you say. I still muttered: "People are unlucky, they stuff their teeth when they drink cold water." You said that this unfortunate thing made me catch up!"
With that, we arrived at the door of the physics lab. Lao Li, looked at the door lock, what is the matter, and the door was repaired after three times and five divided by two.
"The locks don't have to be changed. I saw Lao Li on the side wanting to change the lock, grabbed him, and said, "The head of the physics department said that this ghost is in and out, and he has to be broken when he changes the lock." The gender of Suo has changed. ”
"Young man. Lao Li hesitated, put the new lock in the toolbox, patted me on the shoulder and said, "To say that you are really bold enough." ”
I sighed helplessly and sent Lao Li away in a panic. Time went by minute by minute, and finally it was time to eat, I thought to myself, whatever, it doesn't cost money to eat anyway, and I'll talk about it when I'm full. In this way, I went out to buy a lunch box, went to the cafeteria to eat, bought a bottle of beer at the commissary, and went back to the laboratory to eat a full stomach.
Sleep! When you fall asleep, you are not afraid. I was just about to lie down when the door to the lab opened, and when I saw it, the head of the physics department walked in with a camera and said to me, "Since the haunting, I have been asking the school to install a camera in this lab." But as soon as this camera was installed, nothing was shot down the next morning, and every time the camera on the new installation was twisted and shattered by the ghost. It's going to be fine, here you are. If you run into that ghost at night, you'll shoot him down for me. Let me take a good look at what he looks like, too. ”
I took the camera from the head of the physics department, threw it on the marching bed, and pretended to be asleep. The head of the physics department wanted to say something more to me, to see that it was dark outside, maybe he was afraid, and turned away.
If you want to say that you are afraid, I am also afraid. However, this is already like this, and it is useless to be afraid. At first, I was still lying on the marching bed, my eyes wide open, and after a while, I heard the uncle who locked the door downstairs shouting: "Is there anyone else in the laboratory building? After a while, it was completely dark. I feel that the whole laboratory building is quiet. I closed my eyes and tried not to think of anything in my head. And just like that, fell asleep.
