Chapter 298: Warmth and Revenge (4,000 words)
Ah Rong gently stroked the posthumous photo, and the cold touch made the sadness in his heart deeper.
The heartache and despair that had been suppressed by the feeling of exhaustion during the day resurfaced, making him feel even more depressed.
Turning his head to see the little lights outside the balcony, he felt an urge to jump from here.
Subconsciously, he slowly took two steps in the direction of the balcony.
He couldn't take it anymore......
However, at this moment, suddenly there was a familiar voice from behind him that he would never forget the girl in his life.
"Don't think about it, Ah Rong!"
His whole body shook slightly, and his footsteps suddenly stopped.
Then he turned his head blankly, only to see a familiar figure in the dark room.
His eyes widened instantly, and his face was full of incredulity and shock that could not be concealed.
Isn't this the wife who died in a car accident?!
She......
How did it end up here?!
"Am I dreaming?"
"yes, it's definitely a dream......"
He quickly figured out what seemed the most plausible reason for now, and then a happy smile appeared on his face.
"Wife...... I miss you so much......"
Without hesitation, he walked in the direction of the woman, trying to seize this only opportunity in his dream and regain the feeling of embrace.
However, as soon as he reached out to try to hold it, it was instantly pierced.
The smile on his face froze, a look of confusion on his face.
What's going on?
"It's not a dream, husband......" The woman's voice was a little crying, wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes, "I'm dead, now is the chance for the first seven souls given to me by the underworld, so I can come back and meet you......"
"The first seven? Underworld? ”
Ah Rong only felt that his worldview seemed to be subverted, looking at the figure of his wife in front of him, it was obviously so real, but when he didn't believe in evil and reached out to touch it again, he went straight through it again.
"Virtual reality? AR projection? Or what......" He racked his brain, trying to figure out a few possible reasons in his head.
The content of his work also involves some high-tech, and he understands some of the possible things.
Of course, it cannot be ruled out that he hallucinated due to excessive sadness and despair, which is simply mentally ill.
However, he didn't hate this mental illness, and he didn't plan to treat it, at least it would allow him to see his longing wife again.
"No, I'm a ghost!" Again, the wife explained, apparently it was still a little difficult to convince a materialist of these gods......
It wasn't until a long time later that he somewhat understood the current situation, and the shock on his face became more and more intense......
They began to talk about the changes in their mentality over this time, confiding in each other and comforting each other, although there was no physical contact, but the mental comfort was enough.
And after his wife's crying and persuasion, Ah Rong's death intention finally dissipated, and he rekindled the hope of life, and wanted to live together with his wife's wishes.
In other parts of Nanjiang City, similar scenes have appeared one after another.
There are couples who are separated by life and death who meet, and there are parents who see their poor children who have died......
I don't know how many cries of grief sounded in the city, but not all of them were such a warm scene.
In a small, dimly lit basement, a bald man glanced at the flickering TV screen as he wolfed down the fast food in his hand.
After the last bite, I casually threw the fast food box into the sink next to it.
If you look closely, the sink is already full of unwashed dishes and chopsticks, and the muddy water stains have almost become viscous, exuding a strong foul smell.
It almost certainly hasn't been cleaned in days.
But the man was unaware, and he didn't even glance at it, only burped, then got up and walked to the wall, climbed two steps up a wooden staircase, and slightly pried open the gap in one of the wooden doors above.
There was a faint sound of shredded footsteps outside.
He quickly closed it, cautiously leaning against the wall and listening for a moment to make sure no one was approaching, before breathing a sigh of relief.
Then he slowly climbed down, spat in disgust, looked at the small room, and finally turned and walked to a door.
The combination lock on the door has been broken and is now just locked with a plain brass lock and chain.
The man took two steps forward to unlock the lock, unchained it, and pushed the door open with all his might.
As soon as I pushed open the gap, a cold air came out.
Inside is a special freezer for refrigeration!
But now, what's hidden inside is not ordinary.
The man pushed open the door, and he was already used to the chill, but he shivered, and was not affected too much.
Walking into the freezer, I was surprised to see two frozen naked corpses on the shelves covered with ice slag and frost.
One man and one woman.
The man didn't mean to be afraid, but patted the two corpses like pork, and then sneered.
"Aren't I just asking for some money, I have to make a fuss like this......"
Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly keenly heard a small sound coming from the otherwise quiet room outside.
It's like someone is walking.
But he's the only one here!
"Anyone found out here?"
He subconsciously turned his head vigilantly, holding a boning knife in his hand, and walked towards the outside of the ice storage step by step.
But when he walked to the door, he suddenly found that there were no imaginary police officers outside the door, but two figures holding hands.
And this man looked so familiar, so familiar that he could almost recognize it at a glance......
He slowly opened his eyes, his throat vibrated slightly, and he wanted to scream but couldn't.
These two people......
It's clearly the unlucky couple he killed!
And then he was horrified to find the couple laughing at him.
Obviously, his smile was extraordinarily bright, but he was cold, and the chill of those freezers seemed to be aware of his existence at this time, and they all rushed into all the pores on his body.
Even deep into his bone marrow......
Slowly, he suddenly sensed that something was wrong.
Because his vision was narrowing.
Wrong!
He reacted instantly, it was the door of the freezer that was closing!
He immediately rushed forward, but the couple instantly turned into hideous and terrifying ghosts and pounced on him, so frightened that he instantly shook his body and took two steps back.
It was these two steps, but it was that he didn't catch the last chance to escape.
The door to the freezer was locked intact.
And the interior seems to be unopenable......
……
When Su Bai saw these reports afterwards, it was already the morning of the next day.
Looking at the report compiled by a group of ghost pawns and the Sun Wandering God, he glanced at it briefly and nodded slightly.
Most of these things were already foreseen by him.
The first seven rounds of souls can be regarded as officially showing the existence of ghosts in front of those ignorant ordinary people, which will definitely cause a lot of turmoil.
This is not the same as the knowledge about ghosts and the underworld that he has spread through various media channels before.
The previous content is still a bit empty, and most people don't know that this kind of existence exists and don't want to believe it.
And this time it is to really go deep into their lives, and see their dead relatives come back to meet with their own eyes, this kind of impact is simply incomparable!
Even the most firm belief in materialism was now somewhat shaken.
And Su Bai also found out behind this report that there was a case of almost killing in the process of returning to the soul in the first seven souls, and he couldn't help but pay special attention to it.
It was the couple who were injured by the murderer, because they died at the same time, and they happened to meet his first request for resurrection, so this special case allowed them to go back together.
It's just that I didn't expect such an accident to happen.
Fortunately, no one was killed because of ghosts.
When the door to the freezer was closed, the police were called, and the Union police quickly arrived to rescue the killer before he could freeze to death.
It's just that some body tissues are frostbitten due to excessive cold and need to be removed and treated.
In fact, even if he was not injured and had two lives in hand, the death penalty would definitely not be far away.
This fool who accidentally locked himself in the freezer is indeed a door-to-door achievement, and the Union police are happy to accept it.
The only thing that is a little strange is who made the call to the police yesterday with a mobile phone that no one on the desk made?
Although I learned about ghosts or something from this murderer, most of them thought that this guy was talking nonsense and didn't take it seriously, but they only thought that this guy might have had a hallucination after his head was frozen yesterday.
And Su Bai was quite satisfied with the handling of his subordinates, if it was not necessary, he did not want to interfere in the judgment of life and death in the mortal world.
As a Yin God, he can manage the realm under his command, and as for the mortal world, it is better to leave it to the mortals to manage themselves.
Otherwise, I don't know what will happen.
"Not bad."
Closing the report in his hand, Su Bai nodded slightly.
"Next, the work of the first seven will continue, this time you can pick a few more appropriately, and try to expand the influence of these things......
Several ghost pawns nodded their heads one after another.
Yesterday's experience also relieved the ghosts, it seems that the first seven is not too troublesome work, at most it is a business trip, escorting those ghosts on a trip.
……
The young reporter Yu Xing was sitting in a special car at this time, and the cameraman was sitting next to him, going to a family that had been reported to have abnormal movements last night.
Yu Xing rehearsed some questions to be asked later in his heart, and as a newcomer, he still had a lot to practice in these basic skills.
Although I became an instant hit last time by taking a first-person photo of a ghost and a god up close, things didn't go as well as I expected.
Especially after the famous photo was uploaded to the Internet on the show, it was commented on by countless so-called experts and scholars and netizens who didn't think it was a big deal, and most of them felt that it was too fake.
Not many people would believe him.
Because of this, he later fell silent again, and started as a small reporter in a down-to-earth manner, and it is natural that he runs in the field.
This time, they also got clues from the residents, saying that something strange had happened, and later some big conflicts broke out, and even asked the police to reconcile, which made a big fuss.
So they came here to interview and see if they could find out what the breaking point was.
The car was quickly parked at the door of this residential building, and Yu Xing got out of the car and looked at the information in the mailbox.
"According to clues, last night, when a child or even an adult came home from work, he saw a white figure floating by in the stairs, but the speed was too fast to see clearly."
"It's okay, after all, not too many people have seen it, and no one takes it too seriously, but I just think it might have happened to a bigger fluttering moth."
"But then in the middle of the night, Aunt Niu in room 605 smelled a faint smell of burning coming from nowhere."
She was a little worried, worried about whether there was a gas leak or a fire somewhere, so she got up and rummaged around the house. However, I didn't see anything, and eventually found that the smell was coming from outside the room. ”
After going out, I found that someone was actually burning paper money in the corridor, and while burning it, he was chattering nervously. This strange scene is indeed strange and scary at first glance, and even worse, the smoke has spread in the hallway, and it is no wonder that the residents have smelled it. ”
"Naturally, the residents were not happy, so they quarreled with the woman who burned the paper money, and in the end the quarrel became more and more violent, so that even the police had to come to maintain order so that the situation would not deteriorate further......
Yu Xing reviewed the content of this email as a whole, and explained the general reason to the camera brother next to him by the way.
The camera guy was obviously not interested, and yawned.
He thought that these were probably made up by some pretending to be superstitious, but this time he somehow had a bad brain to choose this location.
And Yu Xing has experienced those previous "big events", so he is not so arbitrary at this time.
He first walked to the door of 605 with the camera and knocked on the door.
In the middle of the night, the door was opened by a half-aged woman who looked shrewd and had a somewhat mean lips.
"Who are you?" The woman glanced at them with a sharp gaze and asked, "We don't need any insurance or financial management here, so let's leave quickly!" ”
Yu Xing hurriedly explained: "Aunt Niu, we are from the TV station's hotline program, didn't you provide a news clue......
After explaining, Aunt Niu remembered and her face softened a little: "It's coming so soon, isn't that ...... Paid, huh? ”
"As long as this is adopted by us, there will definitely be one, but Auntie, you have to take us to understand the specific process of the matter first."
Yu Xing smiled and pointed to the camera brother behind him: "Don't worry, we will shoot the whole process, and we won't lose your money." ”
