Chapter 10 Clues
Chapter 10 Clues
Ghosts are the most yin things formed by the gathering of evil spirits and infinite resentment between heaven and earth.
When the evil spirit is strong enough, it can hurt people.
Before that black silhouette could reach him, the wind that blew up pushed Ji Siwei and his wheelchair one meter back, allowing him to experience the feeling of drifting in a wheelchair for free.
The wheelchair slammed into the bed behind. Even with the soft mattress as a cushion, Ji Siwei still felt his internal organs were shaken out of place.
This gust of wind pushed Ah Ming and the cheongsam woman back a few steps at the same time. When they steadied their bodies and raised their eyes again, the dark mass was making a strange "clack" sound, and it was facing Ji Siwei with its fangs open. Bite off his head.
The scarlet mouth exudes a fishy smell, the teeth are uneven, and each tooth is a sharp knife that can tear open the belly.
The cheongsam woman's eyes widened immediately, and she screamed hoarsely: "Be careful!!"
At this moment, many messy thoughts flashed through the mind of the cheongsam woman.
--That's too late!
——That monster would bite off Huya's head and let him die in front of him!
Ah Ming was relatively calm, she gritted her teeth, and was about to rush over with the dagger in hand.
The distance shortened suddenly, Ji Siwei felt suffocated by an invisible sense of oppression, and the wind hit his face, like a sharp knife, even if it didn't cut the flesh, it was still unbearably painful.
"Stay away! It's too dangerous!"
This dark fellow is fast and small in size, and is more difficult to deal with than the faceless monster encountered on the third floor. He is easily injured in close combat, but Ah Ming's weapon is a dagger, so Ji Siwei hurriedly stopped her.
At the same time, he quickly picked up the baseball bat and swung it fiercely in the direction the black shadow was rushing towards.
The seemingly ordinary baseball bat was like a sharp sword in his hand, roaring away with a red mist of blood.
The moment the red blood mist appeared, Ji Siwei noticed that the concentration of Yin Qi around him dropped a lot, and even his breathing became smoother.
These red blood mist seemed to be fighting against the Yin Qi emanating from the black shadow.
The black shadow obviously didn't expect Ji Siwei to fight back so quickly, it let out an angry scream, temporarily changed its trajectory, and dodged the attack.
After it paused in mid-air for more than ten seconds, it lingered on Ji Siwei again.
Although Ji Siwei's speed is not as fast as Soi Ying's, his victory lies in his strong desire to survive. He is well versed in the principle of striking first, and when he takes aim, he will hit hard.
The red blood mist stuck to the black shadow's body like a spider web, emitting a burning breath.
"grumble--"
Black Shadow broke two of his front teeth with Ji Siwei's unreasonable beating, and let out a shrill scream.
The fierce light in the eyes was like fire, and green mucus oozes from the missing teeth. The ghost felt threatened and did not attack again. It escaped from the range of the red blood mist, hung in the air, bared its teeth like a dog, and made a dull sound.
The eyes hidden under the shadow of the eyelashes froze inch by inch, Ji Siwei panted restrainedly, and looked at the scarlet ghost eye, not giving in.
The black shadow looked down at the two broken teeth on the ground, gave a desolate "beep", gave Ji Siwei a meaningful look, and then plunged into the floor like diving into the water and disappeared.
The room was silent for two seconds, the cheongsam woman and Ah Ming looked at Ji Siwei in surprise.
"The newcomers...are they all so vigorous?"
The cheongsam woman rubbed her sore arm and questioned her soul.
In the dungeon, there is a reason for the extremely low survival rate of newcomers. Their psychological quality is poor. They have not yet understood the mechanism here. When encountering ghosts, they will be frightened and their legs will be weak. They will not escape, and they will die soon. .
This is the first time I have met a cheongsam woman who is so psychologically strong and sober-minded.
"Brother Huya, you have refreshed my understanding of you again. I thought you were a little milk dog, but later I thought you were a little wolf dog at best... But now I think..." The cheongsam woman gave a thumbs up and said sincerely: "You're a werewolf."
Ji Siwei: "..."
"Okay, don't talk nonsense." Ah Ming breathed a sigh of relief, "Let's go, maybe that thing will come out again."
"okay."
The cheongsam woman looked outside through the cat's eyes and opened the door after confirming that there was no danger.
Ji Cheng's body was lying in front of the door, his lower body was bitten so bloody, thick bones could be seen, there was a big hole on the back of his head, and the brain inside was empty.
Not so long ago, he was a living person.
But they don't have extra time to sigh, because no one knows whether they will be the next to die.
The living room no longer had the original warm appearance, blood and messy strange footprints were everywhere on the floor, and blood was splashed everywhere.
In the center of the pool of blood, only some torn pieces of clothing and a pair of rotten leather shoes remained.
In this house, the smell of death is everywhere.
"Tap...tap..."
There were clear footsteps on the stairs.
The three of them looked over vigilantly at the same time, only to see Chenyu walking down slowly with a suit jacket in his hand.
His face was pale, his shirt was covered with wrinkles and gray layers, his arm was scratched by something, and blood was dripping out.
It seems that his experience is not easier than theirs.
After seeing the three people in the living room, Chen Yu took a deep breath and involuntarily quickened his pace.
The leather shoes stepped on the blood-soaked stairs, and this scene actually looked like something out of a horror movie.
"Stop." The cheongsam woman raised her hand, making a gesture that forbids approaching, "Just stop there, don't come over."
"what happened?"
Hearing this, Chen Yu stopped, holding on to one foot, and looked at her suspiciously.
At this time, the cheongsam woman was not wearing a mask, and the face below the eyes was covered with bulging red scars. With her serious expression, she looked like a living Rakshasa.
Chen Yu subconsciously stepped back up a flight of stairs, tightening his grip on the coat, the tendons in his hands stretched like strings on a piano.
There is a dangerous situation here, and everyone is affected by the environment, and it is inevitable that they will become suspicious and cautious.
"How do I know if you are the real Chenyu, or a walking corpse manipulated by ghosts." The cheongsam woman said, "Just to be on the safe side, let's check the code."
"Okay..." Chenyu paused, "No, when did we have a code?"
"Yes." The cheongsam woman thought for a moment, pointed at Ji Siwei, and made up a random code: "This boy, what do you call him?"
Chenyu couldn't laugh or cry: "Huya."
The cheongsam woman's face softened, and she nodded solemnly: "That's right, come here."
"Where's the tall man and Ji Cheng?" Chen Yu walked towards them, looking at the chaotic scene, he was a little surprised: "This blood is..."
The cheongsam woman shook her head at him: "Both are dead."
Chen Yu pursed his lips and rubbed the root of his nose wearily: "What happened?"
"Strange, aren't you with them?" The cheongsam woman frowned, "I thought you knew what happened."
"We searched separately from the beginning. I went to the fifth floor, and the two of them were on the fourth floor." Chenyu explained, "After I searched for the fifth floor, I went to the fourth floor to meet them, but they were all gone."
"So that's it." Ji Siwei looked at Chen Yu thoughtfully, and asked straight to the point: "Then did you find Shi Chu's body?"
"No." Chenyu smiled wryly, "What about you?"
Ji Siwei shook his head: "No."
The four of them looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment.
In less than 24 hours, three people died, and the entire house was searched but nothing was found.
Time is getting tighter and the task is getting nowhere.
They feel unprecedented pressure.
"You're injured, let's deal with the wound first." Ji Siwei cast his gaze on Chen Yu's arm, and said in a gentle voice, "Sit down and relax first, and then think of a solution."
The wound on the arm was deep, the flesh and blood turned outward, and the blood that flowed out was black.
The cheongsam woman found the medicine box in the living room and helped him treat the wound.
"How did you get this injury?" The cheongsam woman gasped, "This level, even if you get out alive this time, you will have to lie in the hospital for ten days and a half months to recover."
"There is a big mirror on the fifth floor. When I passed by there, something grabbed my arm and dragged it into the mirror." Chenyu recalled, "At that time, I felt that half of my body was going to be sunk in the mirror. Things on the table smashed the mirror, and then escaped."
"When I recovered, there was nothing but broken glass in front of me."
"That's a mirror ghost." Ji Siwei rolled his eyes lightly, and said unhurriedly, "It must still be in this house, everyone, be careful, if you bump into it by accident, you'll smash it to pieces immediately." Mirror."
"Okay, but now, I have a more serious question." The cheongsam woman cut off the gauze swiftly with her hands and feet: "Excuse me, are you hungry?"
While speaking, her stomach was still making gurgling sounds very cooperatively.
Chen Yu was stunned: "You have the best appetite I've ever seen inside."
"The sky is big and the earth is big, and eating is the biggest." The cheongsam woman smiled: "Maybe this is the last meal in my life, of course I have to eat it."
As soon as she finished speaking, there was a ringing bell outside.
The downstairs door opened with a "squeak", and a kind-looking middle-aged woman walked up to the second floor with a basket of fresh vegetables and flowers.
"Hello, I'm a part-time worker here, and I'm here to cook for you."
Auntie lowered her eyebrows and walked towards the kitchen without waiting for their reaction after she finished speaking.
The owner of the homestay did say before that there will be aunts cooking at noon and evening, and they were not surprised.
To their surprise, after the aunt appeared, the blood on the floor disappeared without a sound, as if being eaten by the house.
The lights also rarely returned to normal.
Before I knew it, it was already afternoon.
After the aunt cooked for them, she not only cleaned up, but also replaced them with fresh roses.
The house was surprisingly quiet, and the air was filled with the cool fragrance of flowers, which made them feel a bit of comfort.
"Let's sort out the clues and find them again."
Chenyu held the water glass with both hands and said softly.
"This house is only that big. We've searched everywhere we can. Where else can we find it?"
The cheongsam woman was slumped on the sofa, looking hopeless.
"Don't give up, we all have to think about it patiently, have we overlooked any important clues."
With his long and narrow eyes drooping slightly, Ji Siwei looked at the house carefully, and his tone was gentle, making one involuntarily calm down.
When his eyes glanced at the full bouquet of roses on the coffee table, a certain thought flashed through his mind like a white light.
The fragrant floral fragrance in the air overlapped with the smell in memory, Ji Siwei said warmly:
"I'm the only one here who has seen Shi Chu."
"What impressed me the most was that when she appeared, the room suddenly smelled of roses."
"Rose?" Ah Ming frowned: "Do you think roses are related to the mission?"
Ji Siwei nodded, unconsciously twisting his fingertips, desperately recalling the details of when Shi Chu first appeared.
At that time, the situation was too urgent, and he ignored many things. The scenes of last night resurfaced in his mind again, and Ji Siwei filtered them frame by frame...
"Her head was cut off with a sharp weapon, and her body was covered in blood and mud."
"By the way, she's dirty... There's dirt on her face and hair."
"I should know." All the clues formed a clear thread in his mind. Ji Siwei fully opened his eyes. Under the slender eyelashes, the clear eyes seemed to be shining. He slightly curled his lips, and dimples appeared : "In this house, is there a place where there are roses and soil?"
"Indeed!" Chenyu stood up immediately after hearing the words: "There is a balcony garden on the fifth floor, and I remember there is a rose flower bed there!"
