Chapter 40: Night!
"Don't eat that rice! That's for the dead! ”
Gao Ming rushed towards the night, but Xuanwen grabbed him.
His lips were dyed red, and Wan Yu slowly moved his body, his facial features were wrinkled together, his neck twitched, and blood mixed with rice grains fell from his mouth: "You, you ......"
A muffled voice sounded, and the expression on Wanyu's face kept changing.
The thick curtains were blown by the wind, the bits and pieces of paper money fell to the ground, the walls and ceilings cracked and faded, and there seemed to be insects crawling in the cracks.
The body swayed, and the tone of the evening voice was like that of a tearful old man: "There is a tiger in front, and there is a tiger in the back, the sky should not be, and the earth is not spiritual......"
Something in the house seemed to want to tell Gao Ming and Xuanwen something through Wanyu's mouth.
"Ghosts eat people, people eat meat, and meat eats ghosts."
Wanyun's mouth was already dripping with blood, and his lips were all bitten, but he still insisted on talking nonsense that no one could understand, until the round table began to tremble, and bowls of white rice fell.
"Eat, eat, you can live......"
After saying the last sentence, Wanyu fell to the ground, and Gao Ming hurried over to help him up.
At the same time, Xuan Wen opened the door of the inner room, and the only bedroom was transformed into a mourning room, with the tablets and portraits of the eight deceased neatly placed on the table.
In the black-and-white photo, they are staring at the table of the Eight Immortals with their eyes open.
"These are the eight deceased in the extermination case, the incense is still burning, and someone has been worshipping them?"
The sound of the rice bowl breaking was loud, and Takamei was worried about attracting the attention of something, so he walked out with the night on his back.
Pushing open the living room door, the metal door panel slammed into someone's body.
"Don't get me wrong! Don't get me wrong! Covering his forehead, Uncle Wu, who was wearing a thick jacket on a hot day, appeared at the door, and the tattered talisman paper he hid in his clothes was scattered all over the ground.
"Why are you here?"
"Stop talking, let's go!" Wu Bo didn't even bother to pick up the talisman paper on the ground, and ran to the corridor on the fifth floor with his high order, escaped through the gap in the fence, and returned to Building B.
"You guys are so bold!" Uncle Wu gasped and sat directly on the ground: "Do you know that there have been many homicides in Building A of Surabaya Street!" It's a ghost building! ”
"Don't you run in a lot, too?" Gao Ming squatted next to Uncle Wu: "Those eight posthumous photos are you enshrined, right?" What is your relationship with the deceased in the murder case? ”
"You buy my amulet, and I'll tell you." Uncle Wu slowed down for a while: "Take people's money and eliminate disasters with people, you believe me." ”
"I'll give it to you on credit first, and I'll give it to you when I have cash." Gao Ming "borrowed" three strange talismans from Wu Bo's hand, which were folded into triangles and pierced by red threads, wrapped in shredded photographs.
"Then you must give it to me." Uncle Wu patted his torn jacket and got up from the ground: "I used to be a security guard in Building A, and I was on duty on the night of the murder. ”
"What do you see?"
"Building A had a lot of scary rumors before the murder case, so some residents would stick talisman paper at home to keep their homes safe." Wu Bo asked Gao Ming for a cigarette: "People from all over the world gather on Surabaya Street, and the gods that everyone worships are also strange, and most of the residents do this for psychological comfort, but some people go crazy." ”
Spit out a puff of smoke, and Wu Bo let the ashes fall on his torn jacket: "They dissected all the misfortunes and pains, and used their grievances to ask for help from the gods and Buddhas, becoming nervous and extreme. ”
"The murderer who caused the tragedy is such a person, right?"
"Yes." Uncle Wu swallowed his saliva, pursed his chapped lips, and asked tentatively, "Have you ever heard of the Flesh Fairy?" ”
Gao Ming's eyes changed slightly, but he still shook his head.
"It's good if you haven't heard of it, don't believe anything that is spread outside, believe it, and don't believe it." Uncle Wu extinguished his cigarette: "There are two kinds of ghosts in Building A, one is evil ghosts and the other is good ghosts, and the amulets I gave you can distinguish between them." ”
"How can you tell the difference?"
"After you hit the ghost, you take the amulet and go over, the good ghost will let you go, and the evil ghost will eat you alive." Uncle Wu's expression was very exaggerated, as if he had experienced it: "I have told you enough, hurry up and give it to me when I change the money." ”
"Just now you said outside that we would die in a few nights, did you see anything?"
"Whoever gets out of your black car will disappear at night, that's why I said you will die too." Uncle Wu looked crazy, but he was actually very shrewd.
"The black car is the special car of the Investigation Bureau, have you seen other investigators in the building? They all wore uniform uniforms. Gao Ming wanted to know more news from Uncle Wu's mouth: "Don't be nervous, there are many factions within the Investigation Bureau, and I am not in the same group as those people who came before." ”
"There's something I don't know if to talk about or not." Uncle Wu was silent for a long time before he spoke: "After Building A was haunted, those so-called investigators did not stop it, but kept moving all kinds of things into the building. I doubt it...... It's not that the building is haunted, it's that someone chose this building to keep ghosts. ”
The sound of the black ring vibrating suddenly sounded under the sleeves of Gao Ming's shirt, and Wu Bo quickly covered his mouth, stepped on the cigarette butt, and retreated.
Looking at the black ring, Gao Ming received the task issued by the Hanhai Investigation Bureau, at ten o'clock tonight, all the investigators who have experienced a third-level abnormal incident will be transferred to Surabaya Street in the East District, and the abnormal incident in the Surabaya apartment has reached the point where it must be solved regardless of the cost!
"Is everyone betting on tonight?"
Even a person like Gao Ming, who had just joined the Investigation Bureau for a few days, received an assignment, which shows the seriousness of the situation, and the Investigation Bureau is bound to solve the abnormal incident by gathering all its strength. But if it fails again tonight, then after swallowing so many living people, the strange talk in the Surabaya apartment will definitely get out of control.
"Let's get out of the apartment first."
Police cars were passing through the streets outside, and the General Directorate of Investigation was preparing to cordon off all nearby areas for night operations.
Joining Zhu Miaomiao and Yan Hua in the restaurant, Gao Ming opened a private room, and he briefly explained the situation in the apartment building.
"Now it can be determined that this anomalous event is definitely level four, and it is not an ordinary level four anomalous event, there are a large number of ghosts in it, and the environment is complex." Gao Ming didn't know the bottom in his heart: "The last time I was able to clear the third-level abnormal event alive, it was because the ghosts in the incident had no ill will towards me, and this time I really can't guarantee that I can bring everyone out alive." ”
Glancing at everyone present, Gao Ming continued: "You must answer my following question after thinking it through. ”
"Just ask." Xuan Wen seemed to know what Gao Ming wanted to ask, and she already had the answer in her heart.
"The probability of us dying in this anomalous event is more than ninety percent, if you are willing to risk it with me, you can stay, and if you don't want to, drive back to the bureau first, I will not force any of you." After Gao Ming finished speaking, his expression also became a little lighter.
"I'll stay." Contrary to everyone's expectations, the first to speak was Zhu Miaomiao: "I am an investigator of the Investigation Bureau, and it is my job to investigate abnormal incidents." ”
His eyes wandered between Zhu Miaomiao and Gao Ming, and Xuan Wen also knocked on the table: "I'll stay too, I have to watch you two." ”
"Stop talking nonsense, when will you act tonight." Yan Hua frowned, he didn't think about leaving at all.
"Have you really figured it out?" It's not a long-winded fate, the living are unarmed, and there are no tools that can pose a threat to ghosts, in this case, entering a fourth-level abnormal event, facing an unknown number of ghosts, and an unknown strength, is simply looking for death.
"I'm going too." Wanyu came to his senses, and he grabbed Gao Ming's wrist: "Eight people, waiting for me ......"
None of them withdrew, and Gao Ming finally made up his mind: "Okay, wait until it gets dark, and we will avoid the Investigation Bureau and enter from the other side." ”
Several people seized the time to find the murder cases related to Surabaya Street and memorized the location of each murder house.
Everyone made the final preparations until nightfall.
The torrential rain that had been falling for several days was finally coming to an end, but the clouds had not yet lifted.
The rain fell on the black cars, and the entire Surabaya Street had been blocked, and it was impossible to enter or exit.
The investigators in black uniforms hurriedly ran, and the most elite investigators of the Hanhai Investigation Bureau were all sent here.
When the vast majority of ordinary people in this city lamented that the rainstorm was over and the sky was finally about to clear, one by one the investigators standing in the shadows began to approach Building A of Surabaya Apartment.
