Chapter 68: Your Night Has Returned
Whenever he saw the flesh and blood ghosts, Gao Ming's killing intent towards Situ An would become stronger, and he didn't have the strength to fight against the Eastern District Investigation Bureau now, but the situation would soon change.
Gao Ming is ready to do what he thinks this time, not to mention the Investigation Bureau, he wants to overturn the entire Hanhai.
"I would have loved to join the Bureau, but I see that many of the corpses on the walls of the tunnel are wearing Bureau uniforms, so in that case, let's take a different path."
put away the mobile phone and dragged Zhao Xi up from the ground: "Brother Zhao, have you ever played a horror game?" ”
Zhao Xi hadn't recovered from the shock, pointing at the flesh and blood ghosts, and was speechless at all.
"Don't be nervous, I'm a qualified doctor, and I'll cure you completely." Gao Ming asked Zhao Xi to get close to the ghosts and gods and familiarize himself with the atmosphere: "Are you still sad now?" ”
Zhao Xi shook his head tremblingly, he felt as if he was about to be devoured by flesh and blood.
"Good." Gao Ming took out Zhao Xi's will, replaced it with some things to do before he died, and then stuffed it back into Zhao Xi's pocket: "Brother Zhao, we will all have a new life tonight." ”
The flesh and blood ghost burrowed into Gao Ming's body from the back, and the house returned to normal, but the light in the living room could no longer be turned on.
"Next, I will take you into the world of shadows and let you see the truth."
No one in the compound looked down on Zhao Xi, even his brother-in-law and adoptive mother thought he was useless, but Gao Ming knew Zhao Xi's merits, he had a grateful heart, a soul full of kindness, and stubbornness carved into his bones.
Before Zhao Xi could think about whether to refuse, he was put on a raincoat by Gao Ming, and he was pulled out of the door by Gao Ming in a daze.
I don't know why, although these things brought him a great shock, he still followed Gao Ming downstairs and did not resist.
He was afraid, but he felt that his life would not harm him.
Walking to the first floor, Zhao Xicai regained his senses a little, and he pursed his dry lips: "Where are we going?" ”
"No. 4 Minlong Street."
"We ...... Will you meet the big guy just now? Zhao Xiyu asked hesitantly.
"No, it's safe there." Gao Ming walked out of the corridor and stepped over Qi Yan's body.
Looking at Qi Yan, whose head was broken and bleeding, Zhao Xi once wondered if the end of the world was coming outside.
Minlong Street is not far from the Lijing Apartment, and the two of them cross the old street and turn into a convenience store.
"You haven't eaten in a few days, eat some hot food to cushion your stomach." Gao Ming bought food for Zhao Xihe and himself, and then went to pick out a gift for the child at No. 4 Minlong Street, the other party was the source of phobia, and Gao Ming had seen the child's leftover snacks in the closet.
Zhao Xi had no appetite for several days, and after being "enlightened" by Gao Ming, he also had some appetite and was able to eat fragrant food.
After eating and drinking, buying snacks and gifts, Gao Ming and Zhao Xi set off again.
In the rainstorm, Minlong Street was a little gloomy, and the whole street was pitch black, and there was not a single light in sight.
"High life, shall we find some weapons to take advantage of before entering?" Zhao Xi didn't see any living people all the way, and he followed Gao Ming very nervously: "Do you know zombies?" I've seen similar movies, it's a virus, and then people have changed, but it's scary. ”
"Don't scare yourself, we're here to reconcile family conflicts." Gao Ming followed the route in his memory and found the No. 4 courtyard.
As soon as they entered the compound, they saw a man and a woman carrying suitcases, hurrying out of the corridor.
Their faces were pale, as if they had seen something very terrible.
"Finally seeing a living person." Zhao Xi stared at the couple: "But they don't look normal, it's the same as killing someone and fleeing the scene of the crime." ”
Hearing Zhao Xi's words, Gao Ming couldn't help but turn around: "Brother Zhao, your vision is still very good." ”
"You're kidding me again." Zhao Xi honestly got out of the way.
The two ignored the couple and entered the hallway.
The old house shook in the storm, and the large shadows rose little by little like the tide.
"Smack!"
As soon as Takamei reached the third floor, he heard the sound of smashing things, and there seemed to be someone arguing upstairs, so he slowed down and looked towards the fourth floor.
The man's rude voice mingled with the woman's shrill scolding, and the louder they scolded, the thicker the shadows around them.
A little closer to room 405, the door was not closed, the floor of the living room was covered with fragments of dinner plates, and the sofa was knocked over.
In the midst of this mess, a man and a woman scuffled together.
The woman's strength was obviously inferior to that of the man, and she directly grabbed the fruit knife on the ground.
Zhao Xi subconsciously wanted to dissuade him, but when he saw the faces of the man and woman, the leg that stepped out stopped in mid-air.
The man and woman in the house looked exactly like the couple who had just fled!
"What the hell?"
"You're right again! Brother Zhao, you have talent. ”
The man in the room didn't do anything more to the woman with the knife, he seemed to know that the other person could really swing the knife.
With nowhere to vent his anger, he kicked over the table and pounded the TV hard. But he couldn't dissipate his anger by doing so, he walked to the innermost bedroom of the room and smashed the door: "It's all because of this bad seed!" ”
Hiding in the small bedroom was a little boy with pale skin who seemed to have not seen the sun in a long time.
He was terrified when he saw his father come in, but this time he didn't cry or make a fuss, he hid in a castle surrounded by a "quilt", clutching a toy sword.
There were also small figures he drew on the quilt, and the little people were holding spears made of paper.
"I'm not afraid of you, I'm not afraid of you, I'm not afraid of you!"
The little man on the quilt stabbed the man with a long gun made of paper, and the man screamed as if he was really injured.
This scene was not only Zhao Xi, but Gao Ming was also stunned, he had always been curious about how the little boy broke his fear.
"You're just like your mother, you deserve to die!"
The man angrily grabbed the child's clothes and threw them on the broken porcelain in the living room.
He fell hard, but the child grabbed the plastic sword, still didn't cry, and still muttered: "I'm not afraid of you, I'm not afraid of you......"
"This kid is amazing." In order to prevent the child from being injured, Gao Ming entered the house and protected the child: "I really didn't expect that the first living person to overcome his phobia would be such a young child." ”
Touching the child's head, Gao Ming took off his raincoat and threw it aside, he was just getting ready, but suddenly found that the angry man and woman had become much smaller.
"I understand that scary things only appear when children are afraid, and the more scared the child is, the stronger the terrifying monster where the shadows converge."
Takamei finally knew why the child's parents fled in a hurry, and they must have made the little boy feel frightened again, so the boy's fears became a reality with the help of the shadow world.
Putting down the boy's favorite snacks and toys, Gao Ming and Zhao Xi constantly soothed the boy's emotions and made him no longer nervous and afraid.
The horror of the parents in the house gradually dissipated into shadows, and only an ugly handmade puppet remained on the ground. It could barely make out the shape of a human being, and its body was covered in patchwork and stained with various paints.
"Is it the source of the phobia?"
Takamei tried to pick up the puppet, but the boy suddenly took the puppet in his arms and shrank into the corner of the room.
The boy refuses to communicate with Takamei, he is like a kitten that no one wants.
"This kid looks like me used to be." Zhao Xi's heart was touched, he sat down next to the child with a limp, grabbed a piece of waste paper, and easily folded a paper frog: "Hold its butt, and it will jump forward one by one." ”
The shadows have not dissipated, indicating that the "game" has not yet been cleared, and the boy has not completely overcome his fears.
Gao Ming looked at the little boy who was playing with Zhao Xi and felt that it was time for the child to experience the warmth of home.
"I've seen all the photos in your room, it's so big, it seems that your father and mother haven't been with you for a birthday yet." Gao Ming squatted in front of the boy: "Little guy, do you want to eat birthday cake?" ”
