Chapter 5: Whimsical Ideas (2)
Shen Jun knocked the two security guards unconscious and fled into an unfamiliar alley. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
Although the blood he shed was red, he still couldn't believe that he had returned to the yang.
"If I hadn't died, I wouldn't have been able to take down two strong security guards so easily, would I?"
Although he is not a weak scholar, he is not a person who loves to fight, and he has not fought with anyone since he was in junior high school. He felt that if it weren't for the fact that he had become a ghost, he wouldn't have had that much strength.
But why can't I be invisible all of a sudden?
He wandered unconsciously while conjecturing, and finally came to the entrance of a park.
The park is a toll park, the iron gate is closed, and there is an old janitor in the gatehouse who is sitting in a rattan and watching TV. Shen Jun thought that there was no place to sleep tonight, so he would just sneak in and find a quiet place for the night. If he could still be invisible, he wouldn't have to think about it, but now that the situation has changed suddenly, he is penniless, and he doesn't want to sleep in the streets like some homeless people.
He followed the wall for a while, and saw a willow tree by the wall in front of him, so he climbed into the wall with the help of the willow tree.
Inside the wall is a meadow, and not far away is an octagonal pavilion surrounded by wooden chairs and guardrails. He was too lazy to leave, so he fell asleep on a chair in the pavilion. It's a little cold, but it's more comfortable than sleeping on the floor.
Originally, he still had a glimmer of hope, and he had returned to his yang in a daze, just like he had inexplicably turned into a ghost, but the next day, his hope came to naught.
He still can't see the light, and no one else can see him.
"Strange, how could anyone see me last night?"
"Maybe ghosts can appear at night, right?" he thought back to some ghost movies he had seen before, as if ghosts are not always invisible, and sometimes they will appear in front of people.
He was trapped in the park by the sun, unable to go anywhere, and hid in the shade of the park all day, miserable and boring.
It was finally dark that he climbed out of the courtyard wall of the park as if he had been pardoned.
After a while, I saw a magnetic card public phone on the side of the road in front of me, and a young man was making a call. "Am I in my current state, is I invisible or invisible?" he walked over curiously, pretending to be on the phone, and stood by the phone booth.
The young man didn't seem to be able to see him, and even dialed a few numbers, but he didn't get through, so he angrily took out the magnetic card and turned to leave.
Shen Jun's heart moved, followed a few steps, and easily stole the calling card from his pants pocket.
He returned to the public phone booth, inserted the card into the magnetic bayonet, and began to dial Huang Jian's mobile phone.
Only two rings rang, and Su Min's voice came from the other side of the phone: "Hey!"
"I'm Shen Jun, I'm sorry, I'm ...... today"
Before he finished speaking, he heard a busy tone ringing on the phone, and the other party had hung up.
Shen Jun felt slightly strange, stunned for a moment, and then pressed the redial button.
The phone was connected, but the other party did not answer, and the mobile phone was turned off.
In his impression, Su Min was a very gentle girl, and he didn't understand why she had such a big temper today.
"Don't answer the phone, forget it! I didn't mean to miss the appointment, as for being so angry?" he smiled wryly and walked away.
But after taking a dozen steps, he suddenly heard the public phone ring.
He hesitated, but trotted back and picked up the somewhat bulky microphone.
"Hey,"
β...... Shen Jun, you we saw last night, really...... Is it really you?"
"What did you say?" Shen Jun was taken aback, and he felt bad in his heart.
Su Min didn't answer, hesitated for a while before asking, "You...... It's dead, isn't it?"
Su Min couldn't find Huang Jian last night, suspecting that something had happened to him, and he was scared and sad in his heart, thinking about it, and finally decided to ask the police for help.
Although she did not say the real purpose of him and Huang Jian's visit to Beijing, nor did she say her conjecture that she suspected that the murderer was a ghost, in order to attract the attention of the police, she still told the police about the strange accidents of the other four classmates in the photo. After hearing what happened, the two policemen felt that the matter was very strange, and immediately took Su Min to the hotel where Shen Jun was staying to investigate.
Although Su Min didn't know which room Shen Jun lived in, because Shen Jun had used the guest room phone to call Huang Jian's mobile phone, the police quickly found out about that room, and the three of them were surprised that the guests who stayed in that room didn't know Shen Jun at all.
After listening to the guest's testimony, the two policemen were not sure whether Shen Jun had anything to do with Huang Jian's disappearance, but they both became suspicious of Shen Jun, and after asking Su Min about Shen Jun's work unit and phone number, they contacted the Hangzhou police overnight and asked the other party to assist in the investigation.
Originally, they thought that they would not hear back until at least noon the next day, but the next morning, there was a result in Hangzhou!
Regardless of the question, the results of the Hangzhou police's investigation shocked the Beijing police very much, Shen Jun had been killed three months ago, and the murder case has not been solved so far!
After hearing about Shen Jun's situation in Beijing, the Hangzhou police were also surprised, and in turn asked the Beijing police to assist in the investigation. At the same time, the Hangzhou police also became suspicious of Shen Jun's murder and said that they would re-investigate the murder three months ago.
After Su Min heard the news that Shen Jun was dead, he was even more sure of his conjecture, after thinking of Huang Jian, the next one was himself, and the horror in his heart was really difficult to describe in words.
She was very conflicted, hoping to escape the catastrophe with the help of the police, but also worried that the police would think the matter was ridiculous and would not file a case and investigate. Therefore, she did not tell the police that she suspected that the murderer was a ghost, and deliberately concealed some clues that she had recalled that might be related to the truth of the matter.
After listening to Su Min's words, Shen Jun was in a daze for a long time before he said, "You already know?"
"Shen Jun, please tell me the truth, is the disappearance of Huang Jian related to you!?" Su Min cried on the other side of the phone.
"What??Yellow Sword is missing?!"
β...... Don't you really know? It happened just last night, shortly after you left!"
β...... I don't really know. β
"Shen Jun, for the sake of everyone's classmates, to tell the truth, you ...... Will it hurt me again?"
Shen Jun frowned and asked, "Why should I harm you?"
"Because you...... What the hell!"
Shen Jun couldn't help but smile bitterly, "If it's a ghost, it's going to harm people everywhere?"
β...... You're really not hurting us all?"
"I have no enmity with you and no hatred, why should I harm you?"
"What about you...... Why did you promise us to come to Beijing with us when you are already dead?"
"Because I also want to know the truth of the matter. β
"Don't you know how you died?"
"I don't know. Originally, I wondered if I had been robbed and killed, but after seeing the photos Huang Jian sent me, I suspected that things might not be as simple as I thought, so I agreed to come to Beijing with you to investigate the truth. β
After Shen Jun asked Huang Jun about his disappearance, he sighed and comforted: "Maybe the matter is not as serious as you think, maybe he will come back when." β
Su Min cried, "I hope it's like what you said!"
This morning, when she learned from the police that Shen Jun had been killed three months ago, she was very shocked and terrified, and when she thought back to the process of contacting him this time, she naturally understood in her heart that the Shen Jun they saw yesterday was actually just a ghost.
She couldn't help but wonder if the nightmare about that photo was Shen Jun playing tricks?
But after thinking about it, I felt that my ideas could not be justified. First, Shen Jun has no grievances with her and Huang Jian, and his relationship with the other classmates in the photo is okay, and he has no motive to kill; second, he does not look like a person with psychological shadows and obstacles; third, although the time of his death is a bit out of line with the "law of photo order", he is not the first person to die. In other words, before the death of the first few classmates, he was still alone, and he should not have any supernatural powersβshe felt that the deaths of the previous classmates did not look like a case made by people.
In short, deep down she didn't believe that Shen Jun was doing ghosts.
After listening to Shen Jun's words, she completely dispelled this suspicion.
Shen Jun pondered for a while and asked, "So, you, no, didn't you go to that forest to check today?"
"No, I ...... I don't dare go!"
Shen Jun sighed, "Then what are you going to do?"
Su Min cried: "I don't know!"
Shen Jun thought for a while and said, "It's okay if you don't go, I'll go alone." β
"You're not afraid?"
Shen Jun smiled bitterly: "I'm also a ghost, why should I be afraid of another ghost?" When he first became a ghost, he was afraid of ghosts just like people, but after a while, he had accepted the reality that he was a ghost, and he was not as afraid of ghosts as before.
Su Min listened to his words, and suddenly had a terrifying and strange thought in his heart: if Shen Jun could find and get rid of that terrifying evil spirit, maybe she and the rest of the people in the photo could be saved!
Shen Jun had a very ordinary relationship with her, and when he saw that she didn't speak, he felt that he had nothing to say, and after saying goodbye, he was about to hang up the phone, when Su Min suddenly said, "Wait a minute!"
"Anything else?"
"You...... You ......"
Seeing her slurching, Shen Jun couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Say what you want to say directly, although I am a ghost, I won't harm you and other classmates." β
Su Min hesitated for a moment, and finally mustered up the courage to say, "Don't you have any other contact numbers......?" If I think of any clues and need your help, how can I contact you?"
"I've lost my phone for a long time...... I lost it the night I was killed. β
Su Min sighed and said, "You take Huang Jian's mobile phone and use it, Huang Jian's ...... If he comes back, I'll ask him to buy a new phone. β
Shen Jun hesitated: "Actually, it doesn't matter if I have a phone or not, if I want to call, there is always a way to ......."
"I believe that, but ...... If I ...... Is there anything you want to contact you......" She wanted to beg Shen Jun to protect herself, but because the relationship between them was very flat, she couldn't say anything for a while. Moreover, it is too strange for a person to seek protection from a ghost.
Shen Jun actually wanted to have a mobile phone, and said, "That's it, I'll go to that forest first, let's talk about the mobile phone next time." β
"It's fine. Wish...... We will continue to keep in touch in the future. β
After hanging up the phone, Su Min came back to her senses in a daze for a while, thinking that she had just talked to a ghost on the phone, and she wanted to ask the other party to protect herself, she felt weird.
Shen Jun also had a strange feeling in his heart, the other party knew that he was a ghost, and he dared to talk to him on the phone, and he also took the initiative to ask to keep in touch in the future!
"Huang Jian said that she loves literature, and she likes to watch horror novels and ghost movies on weekdays, so her brain is a little abnormal, and she doesn't seem to be talking nonsense, she seems to be really a little abnormal!"
Although he felt that the other party was a little strange, he was also a little moved. Anyway, she is the first person who knows that she is a ghost and can still accept herself!
"If Xia Haiyan knew who I was one day, would she accept me? Would she dare to talk to me?"
Although he had only been separated from her for a day, it may have been too far apart, and he missed her very much. He was in the park last night, thinking back to the fact that she actually took the initiative to call him, and his heart was sweet and sad.
"After going to that wood, if you don't find anything, go back to Hangzhou first!"
Some time ago, he hated his murderer very much, and even vowed to destroy the other party's entire family, but after talking to Huang Jian on the phone, his thoughts have changed somewhat, if the murderer is really a murderous spirit as Huang Jian and they guessed, then the investigation is of little significance to him. First, he is dead, and revenge can't make him yang, and second, if the other party is really a ghost, how can he take revenge?
Could he have allowed a ghost to die again?
The reason why he agreed to come to Beijing was just to know the truth of the matter.
But when he actually arrived in Beijing, he suddenly felt that it didn't seem to matter if he didn't know the truth.
"Now this matter is actually only important to Su Min and the other two living classmates......" Thinking of this, he suddenly realized in his heart, "No wonder Su Min knows that I am a ghost and still wants to keep in touch with me, it turns out that she has realized this!"
After thinking about this section, he immediately understood Su Min's thoughts, and at the same time thought of an idea:
"Actually, I don't need to investigate anything at all, I just need to secretly monitor or protect Su Min, and I can wait for that fierce spirit to appear!"
After thinking of this method, he felt that it didn't matter whether he went to the woods to check it out, but he had just said that if he didn't go, it would be as if he was afraid of that ghost.
He decided to go and have a look in the woods during the day tomorrow. Although he is also a ghost, he is not worried about being killed by the other party, but deep down he still has a sense of fear of other ghosts.
After making up his mind, he sneaked into a hotel near the Forbidden City that night, found an empty bed and slept overnight. The next day, he possessed an old man who was a scavenger and walked into the woods.
But there were no graves or anything suspicious in the woods.
However, he had a little catch, and he met in the woods some old men and old ladies, who seemed to be residents of the neighborhood, who were arguing about a strange thing around a pine tree in the woods.
"That young man hanged himself from this tree the night before!"
"Why is he looking for a short time?"
"I don't know, I read the newspaper that the public security officers found a wallet on the deceased's body, in addition to the money, there was also his ID card, the deceased's surname was Huang, and he came from Zhejiang only the day before yesterday. β
"It's a strange thing, if you want to commit suicide, why do you have to run so far!"
"I heard that he didn't come alone, and his girlfriend, her girlfriend thought he was just missing, but after reporting the case, the public security officers found her boyfriend's body in the woods!"
"Did they quarrel?"
"It didn't say it in the newspaper, it wasn't clear. β
"Alas, today's young people really don't understand, and they are about to commit suicide at every turn! Even if they quarrel, what's the big deal?"
"There are still a lot of things you don't understand, I watched TV and said that young people nowadays have very strange thoughts! I heard that many people are in a sub-healthy state of psychology!"
"What does sub-health mean?"
"I don't understand!"
