Chapter 1: Strange Dreams Chapter 11: Clues in Photos

"Squeak, squeak" I walked on the pebble-filled pavement, walking towards the white light in the distance.

Walking all the way, I was mentally calculating the distance from the white light, which seemed to be five or six hundred meters away.

I can't see the surroundings because there is no light source, I just know that I have to follow the prompts!

After about seven or eight minutes, I came to the location of the white light, and the scene in front of me gradually became clear.

It turned out that the white glow was a large bulb with a lampshade.

The large bulb was held up in mid-air by a rusty iron pipe.

It's a long iron pipe, at least two meters tall at first glance.

Strangely, I couldn't see the wires connected to the big white bulb.

Next to the bulb is a simple shed, which is made of wooden sticks, and a dilapidated iron plate is built on top of the shed to act as a rain ride, and a few old tires are placed next to it.

This simple shed looks like a makeshift car repair shop.

At this point, I wondered, could this simple maintenance point be the place where the man with the ghostly voice wanted me to come?

He said that someone would guide me to him, but the one who guided me did not appear!

Could it be Li Yihang's mother? Or the scary face that pushed me into the elevator at once? Or someone on the screen? I don't have an answer.

What did he bring me here for? Think I don't have the survival skills to teach me how to fix a car? Obviously, I myself think this idea is.

Just as I was wondering, a reflection shone on my face......

Hiss~~

I was suddenly alerted by this sudden irradiation: "Who? ”

I subconsciously turned my head and saw an incredible scene!

There is a beautiful three-story building across the road.

Such a three-story building is not far away, and I don't even notice it.

Come to think of it, I was looking for a light source just now, and I didn't notice the existence of this small three-story building.

I turned around and faced the low building.

The building was dim, and there were no lights in any of the rooms, and the white light bulb next to me was the only source of light.

Only a few glass windows in the small building reflected a faint light.

From my point of view, I feel that this small building is so weird.

Wrong!

After a closer look, I noticed that the windows in the small building were all closed, and only one window on the third floor was gently swaying in the wind, and a mirror was installed under that window.

Who will be safe in a normal house? I don't know about the countryside, at least there is no one in the city, isn't this looking for a fight?

Moreover, why can the reflected light shine on the location of the repair point under the swing of the reflector? Is there any connection between this?

Alone in the dark, I couldn't figure it out.

Obviously, that crazy elevator took me to this place where I don't know where to go, and it was certainly not for me to fix the car.

I'm afraid this little building is the next horror scene I'm going to enter......

Light gives people hope, while darkness swallows people's hope.

Looking around, only this white light bulb is the only source of light here.

Even if I wasn't going to enter this somewhat weird little building, I wouldn't have anywhere else to go.

At this time, my heart was also constantly struggling.

Am I going to choose to wander aimlessly in the dark?

If there was a better option now, I would definitely stay away from this small building.

After much thought, I finally decided to enter this small building and see what kind of inspiration it would bring to me.

Maybe that ghostly and eerie man's voice came from this small building.

Just when I had the idea of entering the small building, the door on the first floor of this small building actually opened!

Could it be that there are a pair of eyes staring at me in this little building? Deliberately opening this door to let me in?

I didn't want to think too much, so I walked towards the small building.

I had only taken two steps and stopped, because it occurred to me that there would be tools in this simple carport.

I had to find something to defend myself.

After rummaging in the simple carport, I found two useful things.

A flashlight and a large wrench.

A flashlight can illuminate me in the dark, and a big wrench can help me defend myself.

With this big wrench, if I had to smash it on anyone's head, I guess he would faint if he didn't die.

Holding the two things in his hand, he felt a little grounded in his heart.

I took a few deep breaths, then no longer hesitated, turned on the flashlight, and walked straight to Xiaolou......

I walk with a modest pace, not taking big strides, nor taking timid steps.

The moment I walked to the door of the small building, I had already counted the number of steps I had walked, a total of fifty-six steps.

I don't know what role counting my steps will do in this unknown space, but I have to be careful and pay attention everywhere.

Walking to the gate of the small building, I carefully observed the exterior decoration of the small building under the illumination of a flashlight.

The façade of this small building is very beautiful and stylish.

The cement on the exterior walls of the small buildings is painted with pale yellow dye, and there are occasional delicate patterns carved on the walls.

There are two cement stone pillars at the gate to hold up a beautiful stone slab, the cement stone pillars are carved with European-style concave and convex portraits, and two European-style lamps that are not lit are inlaid in the cement stone pillars.

From the exterior structure of the building, it looks like it has a beautiful sense of luxury.

Illuminated by a flashlight, I stepped into the building.

Just as my feet stepped into the door, the door slammed shut!!

This sudden change made my heart suddenly tense and accelerated.

I turned around and tried to push the door open, but my efforts were in vain, and the door did not move as I pushed it hard, and there was no sign of it being pushed open.

At this point, I was a little nervous and a little angry, who was playing with me in applause.

Pick up the big board and slam it twice on this door, but there is no response! Then I grabbed the tail of the flashlight in my mouth and slammed my hands against the lock.

But all my efforts were in vain, and the lock of this door could not be smashed open!

Calm down, I stopped trying to open the damn door and turned to explore inside.

With a flashlight in hand, I methodically shined into every corner of the house.

After looking around for a week under the light of a flashlight, I finally got a clear view of the layout of the room.

To the right of the door is a wide glass window with a thin curtain blocking the window frame.

The solid wood desk is next to the glass window, and there are a few books and some summarized materials on the desk, and a solid wood chair and the desk look like an office.

Behind the chair is a set of solid wood bookshelves filled with books, and it looks like the owner of this place looks very cultured.

There is also a large glass window to the left of the door, and next to this window is a solid wood staircase that spirals upwards.

On the other side of the solid wood staircase is the reception area, where a dark set of sofas is surrounded by a black and white carpet, and a coffee table is surrounded by sofas.

On one side of the coffee table are two identical glasses, while on the other side are different tea cups.

Apparently, this was placed on the table when the two guests were talking to the host.

There is a corridor on the wall between the reception area and the office area, which I think should lead to the inner room and the kitchen and bathroom.

I don't know what the owner did with the renovation intentions, why only the carpet was placed in the reception area, and the office area and other areas were just floors?

After some observation, I decided on the layout of the house.

Raise your hand and press the switch, nothing happens!

The light of the flashlight shines upwards on the roof of the shed, and you can clearly see that there are two sets of European-style chandeliers hanging on the roof of the office area and the reception area.

I quipped to myself: Did someone pull the switch? Or did you forget to pay your electricity bill?

Ignoring the switch, I took a few steps and walked to my desk, where I gently placed the big wrench on the desk and the flashlight upside down on the desk.

By placing a flashlight in this way, the light can illuminate the whole room.

With my hands free, I began to flip through the books and materials on my desk at will.

"Chinese Textbooks for Senior High School", "Syllabus", "Philosophy and Life", I flipped through a few books at random, and it seemed that the owner of the house was a high school teacher.

Just as I was about to pick up the flashlight and the big wrench again to check out the rest of the place, several photos and a card fell out of the book......

I picked up a few photos and sorted them out a bit.

The first photo is a group photo, with a teaching building in the background, and there are several large characters above the teaching building.

It seems that the owner of this room is a teacher from one of the most important schools in our city.

There are a lot of students in the photo, and they look like forty or fifty people, but none of them are people I know.

There were more than a dozen female students squatting on the ground on both sides of the front row, and the students were all wearing school uniforms, only the older two men and two women who were not wearing school uniforms sat on the chairs in the middle of the front row, and these four people were supposed to be teachers.

Could it be that one of the four teachers is the owner of this house?

The middle row in the photo is full of boys. Presumably, they were in a group photo of short girls squatting in the first row, tall boys in the second row, and both boys and girls in the last row, standing on chairs together.

In this arrangement, each student is photographed.

But when I looked at the last row of the whole picture, I saw that the face of one of the students on the far left had been crossed out by something like a knife.

No face!

What is the reason for this? If the owner of this group photo is a student, it is understandable, and he may have been at odds with a classmate in the past few years, and deliberately cut the face of the person he hates with a knife in the graduation photo, so that he will never see this person again.

But this photo is sandwiched in the lesson plan, which means that the owner of this photo should be the teacher, how can the teacher behave like this? I felt very strange.

Putting this group photo at the end of all the photos in order, I started looking at the second photo.

This photo is obviously a family photo, and several members of the family look very intimate in terms of expression and feeling.

In the middle of the photo is a middle-aged man who looks quite tall and has a slightly chubby body.

The middle-aged man's smile was very bright, and his right hand tightly wrapped his arms around the shoulders of a beautiful young woman, while his left hand held the small hand of a cute little girl about ten years old.

It can be seen that he is very proud in the photo.

And the young and beautiful woman leaned her head slightly on his shoulder, and also showed a happy and sweet smile.

The little girl who is about ten years old is pulled by a man with her right hand and pulls her skirt with her left hand, looking very princess-like and looking very talented in acting.

And to the left of the little girl, there is a smaller boy, wearing neat bib pants and posing in a martial arts pose, very naughty.

If these people are the only ones in the picture, it must be a very harmonious picture.

But in the photo, there is a skinny, dirty thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy standing on the right hand side of the young woman!

The little boy does not stand next to the beautiful woman in the photo, but keeps a certain distance from the beautiful woman.

The other two children were dressed in clean clothes and posed naturally, while the little boy was holding a shabby stuffed bear doll.

I don't think it's strange for a teenage boy to hold a leather ball or a water gun, and at his age he has a stuffed bear that only little girls like to play with, does this stuffed bear have a special meaning to him?

In this photo, he has a strong sense of disobedience, which makes me more and more curious.

Is this little boy a family with them? Could it be that this little boy was adopted? I didn't have an answer and could only continue to look at the photos.

The third photo is a single photograph of the middle-aged man, who is very young, in his twenties compared to the photo just now.

Moreover, the smile of the man in this photo is clearly even brighter.

It's a smile with excitement.

His laughter reminds me of the four joys of life: a long drought and a rainy day, meeting old acquaintances in a foreign land, when the gold list is inscribed, and the night of candles in the cave room.

I don't think it's like a long-term drought and a rainy day, and I don't think it's like a hometown acquaintance, but when the title of the gold list is titled, I don't share happiness with others, but run to take a single photo? Also unlikely!

Therefore, the essence in this photo is most likely the night of candles in the cave room!

It should be that the man in the photo is married, but you can't marry yourself when you get married, what about the bride?

Just as I was looking at the photo closely, a super terrifying feeling spread from my sight all over my body, and the photo almost fell to the ground!

In the photo, there is obviously only a man alone, how to look at it, there is a strange woman with blurred black and white!

Moreover, the woman did not stand with him for a photo, but lay on the ground, smiling strangely at me on one side and crawling slowly on all fours like a lizard!!

It's horrible!

The woman in the photo is actually moving.

I wondered, did he crawl towards me?

Wrong!

There is no scene in the photo that I have seen, and it does not match the current scene, I am afraid that I am dazzled.

I consoled myself with the fact that I didn't bother with the photo, put it to the end, and read on......

But just as I was concentrating on the fourth photo, something suddenly lit up in the afterglow.

Subconsciously I looked up and saw that it was a clock!

What do you mean? Is it for me to see the time again? What does it take to connect these times? I do not know!

The time on the clock shows 11:35.

Is this what I need to do within the allotted time?

But I had to find clues, because I had no idea where the ghostly man was trying to lead me.

I also don't know what the connection is to time and being drawn here.

I go back in time to the whole thing.

In the hospital, Ran Lizhe entered my room at 10:20 at night, and the last time he entered the dream was 11:00, and this time the clock on the wall of the ICU room was also 11:00 at night, and this time the time was 11:35.

My mind was so chaotic that I couldn't figure anything out of it, and I had no choice but to keep looking for clues.

After a few seconds, the glimmer of the clock on the wall went out, and I shone a flashlight on the clock.

The clock was still walking, and nothing unusual was noticed.

Since I couldn't find a clue about the concatenation of time, I simply didn't look for it, and I continued to look at the photos.

The fourth photo is a wedding photo, and the man in the photo is still the same man, a few years younger than the family photo, but a little more mature than the single photo.

The woman in the photo is the beautiful woman in the family photo.

The two people in the photo are kissing affectionately, one is wearing a suit and the other is wearing a wedding dress with affection, looking so happy.

Looking at this photo, I seemed to remember something, and I hurriedly put the third photo on the table and compared it with the fourth photo.

The same man, with the same expression, the same suit, the difference is that in addition to a beautiful woman in the fourth photo, a blurry shadow appears, which is the strange woman who appears in the black and white image in the third photo!!

In the fourth photo, the woman in black and white is riding on a man's back while her head is turned to me and she is smirking!

My heart trembled again!

Isn't the black-and-white woman in the third photo just now hallucinating? Could it be that she would actually crawl out of the picture and come to me at some point?

I closed my gaze, closed my eyes, and a conjecture appeared in my head.

There are two possibilities for the same black and white blurred female shadow in both photos: first, she has an irresolvable grudge with the man in the photo, and perhaps this man is her murderer; Second, the man was her former husband who abandoned her when the man was on good terms with another woman.

But what if both happen at the same time? That's just horrible!

The man in the third photo is very young, and there can be a bold conjecture that this black and white weird woman and this man are the original match, and they are also the first marriage of the two, that is, the first marriage.

And the happy man in the fourth photo is obviously middle-aged.

So the question is, where can a teacher find a young and beautiful girl as his new spouse?

In all probability, it should be the school!

Normally, if a young and beautiful girl is accosted by a middle-aged uncle, I think either the man is very rich, or the man is very attractive, or the power is also attractive.

But under normal circumstances, any girl would not choose an uncle with an average income as her selective spouse.

Then, they know each other and get along day and night at school, which is the inevitable stage of their development, and it is only after a long time that the two have feelings for each other.

Therefore, I judge that this should be a teacher-student love, and the heroine in the first marriage is a victim of this teacher-student love!

She is likely to be killed by this ruthless man!

If it is a normal divorce and each finds his own happiness, then another result will appear.

First, the heroine in the first marriage also found her other half, so she won't have such a big resentment, because she also has her own new life.

Second, even if the heroine in the first marriage does not plan to remarry, she will use time to calm her mood, although there are resentments, but how can a living person appear in the photo in such a way in an incredible state?

So, based on the above judgments, I come to a conclusion.

The third photo was originally a wedding photo of this man and his original partner, and the reason why his original partner did not appear in the wedding photo in a normal state is because the original heroine is no longer alive, and she wants to use her way to tell the person who found the photo the truth.

Perhaps, no one will avenge her death for her, and the real murderer is still at large......
