female ghost
Jiang Luo almost laughed.
What could be as scary as you?
Beside him is a vicious ghost in human skin, and outside the door is another filthy thing. To be honest, Jiang Luo would rather deal with the ghost outside the door than hide in the utility room with Bai Yefeng.
Jiang Luo did not reveal the Evil Ghost's poor performance now, but also keenly captured the malice in the Evil Ghost's tone.
That malice, it made his nerves tense.
Inside the enclosed utility room, the air was humid and sticky, and there was only so much space to stand.
Jiang Luo slaps Bai Yefeng's hand, takes a step back, and distances himself from Bai Yefeng.
The overhead lights flickered as if they would explode in the next second, and a stench entered through the cracks in the door, a thin layer of frost covering the single door panel.
There was a sudden cacophony of footsteps outside the restroom.
A rough male voice said viciously, "Where is she! Can't let her get away!"
"Come on, she's hiding in the bathroom, find her now, we'll be discovered!"
Jiang Luo concentrated, listening from the footsteps, there were three people's footsteps outside, but only two people's voices talking. They were arguing loudly, as if they weren't worried about being heard. From the sound of their voices, they were all around thirty years old.
How does someone in their thirties get into a dorm full of contestants?
Jiang Luo realized in a flash that, just like the memory of the boss's wife he had touched in Hotel 129, he was now most likely caught up in the scene of an event that had happened before.
The tone of the three men outside grew more and more sinister, "Find them one by one."
Jiang Luo listened attentively, but Bai Yefeng, on the other hand, seemed uninterested, circling a strand of Jiang Luo's black hair with his fingers in a bored manner.
"With a thud, the door to the first restroom was kicked open. The man who kicked in the door spat, "Shit, that bitch isn't in the first one."
Another door was kicked in.
Jiang Luo's utility room was in the sixth compartment.
A kicking sound was as horrible as muffled thunder, and soon the three men outside had kicked in four doors.
Only the fifth compartment remains.
Jiang Luo couldn't help but break into a cold sweat on behalf of the escaping girls, even though she knew it had already happened, the tense and terrifying atmosphere was still frightening.
The three men outside the door apparently thought the same as he did, that the girls were in the fifth cubicle, and they laughed lustily twice, the words of horrible content coming out of their mouths so plainly.
"Bitch, what are you hiding for?"
"Tired old man, so damn good at running. Luckily no one's on vacation this time of year, I'll have to get a little more enjoyment out of her before I kill her."
"Hahahahaha haven't you had enough? Don't you fucking die on a woman."
"The bitch isn't as pretty as her BFF, but at least she's alive, can't we use her more?"
Accompanied by obscenities, someone kicked in the door of the fifth cubicle.
Jiang Luo's brows furrowed, and he could already guess what kind of picture would follow.
But surprisingly, it was quiet outside.
One man spoke up in surprise, "How come there's no one in the fifth room either?"
Not even the fifth room?
Where can that be?
Jiang Luo frowned, suddenly his face stiffened, and a chill ran up his back.
He suddenly remembered that there was a utility room.
It's where they are now.
Jiang Luo slowly twisted his head, and on the ground, a hand violently embraced his leg.
A female ghost with broken clothes suddenly appeared in the corner of the utility room where there was originally nothing, and the female ghost raised her head from her disheveled hair, revealing a ghastly white ghostly face.
Two bloody tears left the girl's eyes on her green and purple scarred face, she was covered in blood and grinned horribly and eerily towards Jiang Luo.
Jiang Luo's breath hitched.
The sound of kicking came violently from outside the door, Jiang Luo turned his head to look, the next instant, the door of the single room was kicked open, three fierce and vicious big men came in with a vicious smile, as if they couldn't see Jiang Luo and Bai Yefeng, they dragged the female ghost out amidst the female ghost's screams of terror.
The lights shifted quickly again.
Jiang Luo stabilized his mind and suddenly felt that there was something familiar about the female ghost. He looked steadily and in the unsteady light, he recognized the female ghost as Wang Xinhui, the missing girl from Fu Yuaner's class.
The lights suddenly went out.
In the darkness, the ghostly figures outside were nowhere to be seen. But the voices didn't disappear, the sound of the door opening and closing kept ringing out, and the sound of the constantly flushing toilet water rang out again.
Bai Yefeng whispered in his ear, "Hmm? It seems like they chopped people up and flushed them down the drain."
Yes, Jiang Luo heard it.
Not only that, but he also thought about the stench he had smelled when he first entered the dormitory and the staff's comment that "the sewers are often clogged".
It took an indeterminate amount of time before the flushing sound slowed to a halt.
Silence returned to the restroom stall.
Bai Yefeng, outwardly worried but with a vague smile, asked, "Are you scared?"
Jiang Luo instantly understood the malice in his earlier words.
The evil spirit had known that the female ghost would be hiding in this cubicle, which was why he had taken him to hide in the utility room.
Just to scare him?
Jiang Luo laughed instead of being angry, his tone was cheerful as if he had gotten a surprise, "Fear not, I still have to thank Mr. Bai for letting me obtain one more clue."
Jiang Luo affectionately patted Bai Yefeng's shoulder and said with relief, "Bai student, fortunately you acted quickly and dragged me into the utility room, I can't thank you enough."
The black-haired youth's eyes were sincere: "I previously thought that you were targeting me, but now it seems that it's all because I thought too much, it's because I'm a small person, Bai Yefeng, Bai student, you're really a good person."
Good man Bai Yefeng : "......"
His smile narrowed slightly.
Jiang Luo gave him another broad smile and led the way out of the utility room.
Zhuo Zhongqiu was still waiting outside unnoticed, and when he saw the two of them come out, he couldn't help but say, "You're not just going to the restroom, how can you be so slow."
Jiang Luo asked, "How long did it take us?"
Zhuo Zhongqiu held his arms and said, "Fifteen minutes."
"Fifteen minutes," Jiang Luo thought wistfully, "I thought an hour had passed."
Such an episode didn't affect their plans, and Jiang Luo was still thinking about the scene in the restroom as they headed to Liu Zhi's office.
The three men were dressed like laborers, and Jiang Luo made a note of their faces, not forgetting a point that could easily be overlooked.
One of the three workers hadn't said a word since the beginning.
Coincidentally, two workers also died during work on the 2012 expansion.
These two things are definitely connected in an extraordinary way.
The words of the three workers were repeated over and over again in Jiang Luo's mind, "This bitch may not be as pretty as her best friend, but at least she's alive." Could Wang Xinhui's best friend be Fu Yuaner?
Fu Yuaner was already dead when the three workers saw him?
Jiang Luo already had a vague framework in mind, but there were still some key points that needed to be looked up to be understood.
There was no one in the school district at midnight, and the three men walked through the quiet corridors to the locked office and tumbled in through the window.
Jiang Luo went straight to Liu Zhi's desk, Liu Zhi's drawer had a small lock on it, but a small lock is easy for them, Zhuo Zhongqiu pried the lock aside and pulled the drawer open.
Inside the drawer were many workbooks and documents. Jiang Luo and Zhuo Zhongqiu looked through them one by one and finally found a folded newspaper at the bottom of the drawer.
Jiang Luo picked up the newspaper, feel the weight is not right, he layer by layer to pull open the newspaper, it turns out that the newspaper is also wrapped in a pile of women's jewelry.
As a designer, although a landscape designer, you need to understand the design styles of various industries when learning the fundamentals of design. Jiang Luo can see at a glance that the jewelry, respectively, comes from five different brands.
There are also time distinctions in the soldering methods and design patterns, so if this was bought by Liu Zhi as a gift, each set of jewelry was purchased with at least one to two years in between.
But while the small details are different, the overall aesthetic direction is still the same, favoring a mature feminine style.
One pair of earrings matched the necklace Fu Yuaner wore around his neck.
Jiang Luo took out his cell phone from his pocket and carefully photographed the jewelry one by one, "How many girls have disappeared between 2012 and now?"
Bai Yefeng said leisurely, "Five."
Jiang Luo was thoughtful.
After taking the pictures and restoring the office to its original state, the three men jumped out the window and returned to the dormitory. Jiang Luo has been able to determine that Liu Zhi and Fu Yuaner had a romantic relationship, but he has not been able to understand the relationship between Fu Yuaner, Wang Xinhui and the workers.
Among the three workers, there is no Liu Zhi.
After returning to the dormitory, it was already three o'clock in the middle of the night, and even a night owl who could stay up even longer would feel exhausted.
Jiang Luo finished packing and lay down on his bed, and was about to fall asleep when his cell phone rang once again.
He immediately sobered up this time and picked up his cell phone, and sure enough, he saw the strange caller from last night.
But this time, the unfamiliar caller's number notes had a name.
Liu Zhi].
The female ghost is using Liu Zhi's cell phone to call Jiang Luo.
Jiang Luo pressed record and then connected, calmly saying, "Hello?"
"Zilla ...... Zilla ......"
The same sound of waves breaking, Jiang Luo waited patiently for the female voice to sound.
"I ...... zilla ......" said the muffled female voice, "me and you, back to back."
"It's you and me back to back, or you and Liu Zhi back to back." Jiang Luo asked rhetorically.
Which word in his words seemed to poke the female ghost's scar, and the female ghost's voice gradually sped up, "I'll go back to back with you, I'll go back to back with you, I'll go back to back with you ......"
The voice grew shriller.
It turns out that not only human nature is a repeater, but the nature of ghosts is also a repeater?
Saying it three times is important?
Jiang Luo gripped his cell phone and looked down, toward the bottom of the bed.
-Nothing.
