infinite danger

Chapter 128 It scares me!

There are some Podocarpus pines planted next to the apartment, which are lush and continuous.

Ji Siwei's room had a rather large window facing the pine tree.

There was no light in the room, the moonlight was dim this night, and most of the light from the street lamp was blocked by pine trees. Huge and mottled shadows were thrown into the room, swaying left and right, like ghosts crawling up from hell.

"Huya, go to sleep." The eight-tailed cat jumped onto the chair and coiled into a ball: "I will call you if there is any abnormality."

"Okay." Pulling the curtains to block the messy tree shadows, Ji Siwei set an alarm on his black phone and hid the fruit knife under his pillow.

Then, he fell down on the soft bed, dumped the messy thoughts in his head, suddenly felt that his eyelids were a little heavy, and soon fell asleep.

Waking up once in the middle, he glanced around the room with sleepy eyes, and saw a pair of emerald green cat's eyes emitting a faint light in the dark night, Ji Siwei soon fell asleep again.

"Meow~huya wake up!"

Feeling two soft paws rubbing his arm, Ji Siwei just opened his eyes when the round cat face of the eight-tailed cat came up.

The curtains were pulled open at some point, and the room was shrouded in a thin layer of light blue light mist.

The eight-tailed cat's eyes were serious, and its mouth opened and closed: "I smell blood."

Ji Siwei woke up immediately.

After putting on his uniform jacket, he took out the fruit knife under the pillow and hid it in his sleeve.

Check the time.

06:30am.

After turning off the alarm clock that was about to ring, Ji Siwei brushed back his messy bangs and put on his peaked cap.

Had a strange dream all night, woke up but forgot everything.

Putting on his backpack, Ji Siwei pushed open the door.

Ah Ming stood behind the door of the hall, holding a dagger in his hand. When he heard the movement, he turned his head and made a silent movement, then raised the dagger and covered the cat's eyes with the blade.

"Boom."

Suddenly there was a gentle knock on the door.

Ji Siwei saw the door shake slightly.

Something is standing outside the door!

A smell of blood was mixed in the air, and it became more and more cloudy.

Ji Siwei clearly saw the black air seeping in from the crack in the door.

Something outside the door wants to come in.

But it doesn't seem to be able to open the door by itself.

Scratching sounds came from outside the door, each sound getting louder than the other.

Ji Siwei suddenly remembered a time in class, when the teacher accidentally scratched the blackboard with his nails while writing on the blackboard, he also made this goosebump-inducing sound.

The ghosts seem to have long nails, and they all like to scratch the door.

However, there is a creature that likes to scratch things more than it does.

Ji Siwei picked up the eight-tailed cat, walked to the door, and said in a low voice, "You're welcome, scratch it."

The eight-tailed cat's eyes lit up, and it took out its nine-yin black cat's claws, and scratched at the door.

The thing outside the door may not have encountered such an arrogant opponent before, and it was silent in an instant.

After about a minute, there was only the sound of the eight-tailed cat scratching the door in the hall.

There was a loud "bang" from the door panel, the eight-tailed cat's two paws were shaken away, its neck retracted, and its eyes widened: "This thing is scaring me!"

Ji Siwei raised the eight-tailed cat so that it was level with the cat's eye on the door: "Scared back."

Ah Ming inexplicably understood what Ji Siwei meant, and withdrew the dagger with helpless eyes.

She felt that this person and cat didn't care about the things outside the door at all.

Without the cover of the blade, the eight-tailed cat curiously poked its eyes into the cat's eyes.

It saw a lifeless red eye.

"Ow!!"

Across the door, the eight-tailed cat heard a frightened and distorted scream.

It seems to be broken.

There was no movement outside, the thing had already run away.

The eight-tailed cat was puzzled: "Its eyes are so ugly, even the gods didn't bark, how could it have the face to bark?"

Ji Siwei: "Maybe because you are too handsome, it is too ashamed, so it has to hide its face and run away."

The eight-tailed cat suddenly realized: "So it is."

Ah Ming: "..."

Ji Siwei looked out the door through the cat's eyes, and opened the door only after making sure that the thing had disappeared.

There were a few scratches on the door, and it was dug so deep that the sawdust was turned over, and there was still some blood on it.

There was also a small pool of blood on the floor, so red it was black.

Looking around, there was also a pool of blood in front of Wei Qi and Yingying's door, and there were a few scratches on the door.

It knocked on every door on the first floor.

Although I didn't see it with my own eyes, the black air seeping through the cracks in the door proved that it was indeed a ghost.

Ji Siwei slowly raised his eyes: "There are also bloodstains on the stairs. Looking at the direction, it came down from upstairs. The blood is human blood. Something happened."

As if to confirm his judgment, as soon as his words fell, a series of panicked footsteps and the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground sounded upstairs. Then, a scream erupted in the entire corridor, and the lingering sound echoed across several floors. reverberate.

"Dead! Dead!"

Although the voice was distorted due to excessive panic, Ji Siwei still recognized that it was the voice of the boy in the baseball cap.

"Go up and have a look." Ji Siwei avoided the blood on the ground and climbed up the stairs.

Ah Ming followed closely.

As soon as I went up to the second floor, I ran into Dr. Xu and Brother Ku who just opened the door.

The two were neatly dressed and looked sober, but their eyes were a little red. They probably didn't have much rest last night.

Brother Ku's long black box was still there, and Ji Siwei suspected that it contained his weapons.

"You heard the voice too?"

Doctor Xu asked softly.

"Dead! Come on!"

There was another piercing scream.

Ji Siwei rubbed his ears and smiled: "It's hard not to hear."

Brother Ku looked at the two closed doors on the second floor, and made a rare speech: "I can hear you all, but some people don't have the guts to come out."

Doctor Xu sighed: "It's human nature."

Ji Siwei paid attention to the door and floor on the second floor, and found that only the door on the left had scratches.

It seems that this ghost is not harassing from house to house, it should be randomly selected.

The more they went up, the thicker the smell of blood, and the smell of blood was inseparably entangled with the air, to the point where they couldn't help but hold their breath.

The boy in the baseball cap leaned against the wall, trembling all over. Seeing someone finally coming, he opened his eyes wide, pointed to a room with the door open, and shouted loudly, "He's dead!!"

The boy's voice was trembling too much, and his face was covered with cold sweat, probably because he was really frightened, so he could only repeat this sentence repeatedly.

"I see, stop shouting." Brother Ku frowned, a little impatiently.

Ji Siwei turned on the lights in the public area.

The bright light pierced the darkness before dawn, and also illuminated the crime scene filled with the breath of death.

It was the one in the middle that had the accident.

It's the same house type as Ji Siwei's, with two bedrooms and one living room.

The door had no threshold, and blood was everywhere.

In the living room lay a male corpse. He was wearing the uniform issued by the safety zone. His body was haggard, his facial features were wrinkled, his skin was blue, and his face could hardly be distinguished.

There is no obvious trauma on the body, but it seems that all the blood in the body has been squeezed out by something.

Ji Siwei covered his mouth and nose, avoided the corpse and walked in, and saw another corpse at the door of the room.

His slack eyes were wide open, and his death was very similar to the one in the living room.

Ji Siwei remembered that these two were newcomers.

Looking at the two corpses, Ji Siwei remembered what He Qi said - people who were attacked by those things died in strange ways.

Looking carefully at the house, Ji Siwei didn't find anything strange.

The smell in the house was really bad, Ji Siwei exited the door: "Doctor Xu, can you tell when they died?"

Doctor Xu observed carefully, and replied: "The corpse is too weird, there is no way to judge it according to the routine, but judging from the state of the blood, it is estimated that it was four to six hours ago."

Brother Ku narrowed his eyes and concluded: "This kind of death, the murderer is definitely not a human or a zombie."

"I think what killed them was the 'that' thing He Qi mentioned." Ji Siwei said: "Ten minutes ago, that thing knocked on our door, and I can be sure it is a ghost. According to Dr. Xu's It is judged that they died between midnight and 02:30 in the morning, that is to say, after it killed people, it stayed here for a few hours before looking for new targets."

"That thing knocked on your door?" Brother Ku's eyes froze: "Did you see what it looks like?"

Ji Siwei: "No."

"Then how are you sure it's a ghost?" Brother Ku faced Ji Siwei with a harsh tone: "Tell me your experience from the beginning, don't ignore the details."

Ah Ming gave Brother Ku a cold look: "Pay attention to your tone, are you interrogating the prisoner?"

Brother Ku pursed his lips and remained silent.

"Everyone is in a bad mood when this happens, please understand each other." Ji Siwei had no choice but to mediate: "I'll tell you my experience and discovery from the beginning, and you can also give your opinions after listening."

Dr. Xu nodded: "This is very appropriate."

Brother Ku moved his lips, raised his eyelids to look at Ji Siwei, and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm not very good at talking."

"It's okay." Ji Siwei resolved the embarrassment with a gentle attitude, and first explained what happened on the first floor.

During the narration, he concealed the identity of the eight-tailed cat, and only described it as an ordinary black cat.

After hearing this, Doctor Xu stared blankly at Ji Siwei: "You really have found another way to scare ghosts with cats."

Ji Siwei smiled, dimples appeared on the side of his cheeks: "It's just a sudden inspiration."

Brother Ku thought for a while, and then expressed his doubt: "So, that ghost is afraid of cats? Or, afraid of black cats?"

Ji Siwei was noncommittal, and continued to analyze: "What I want to say is that the ghosts here don't have the ability to open the door by themselves, and these two newcomers may have opened the door after hearing the knock on the door, so they were tricked.

"If you hear a knock on the door, don't open it.

"Another point, I judge whether the ghost has stayed there by whether there are bloodstains in front of the door. There is only one house with bloodstains on the third floor and the second floor, but all of them on the first floor. This may explain that it chooses the target. The way is random."

Dr. Xu recalled: "The two of us took turns to watch the night, and I was the one in the second half of the night. Ten minutes ago, I vaguely heard a knock on the door outside, and it wasn't my door. I thought it was an illusion, so I didn't mind."

"You guys... have you finished talking?" The boy in the baseball cap looked pale, slumped on the ground in a trance, and slid two lines of tears: "Can we study in another place... I'm about to die..."

Yesterday, when he saw an NPC being bitten by a zombie, the boy in the baseball cap didn't have a particularly big reaction, but when he actually saw his companion being killed, he suddenly couldn't bear it anymore.

His words reminded Ji Siwei of his existence: "By the way, how did you find out what happened to them?"
