The blood-red yarn ball stopped again under the frightened eyes. Several people's hearts beat a few times, and they looked around nervously. After finding that there was no problem, they took a few deep breaths.
"Damn, it's fatal." The migrant worker Niu's mouth was trembling when he said this. As he said this, he looked at the matchmaker Zhang: "Isn't your thing broken? This is the fifth time it has been moved in forty minutes. Is this the sixth time? Does that thing down there have ADHD?”
Matchmaker Zhang shook his head nervously. The covered wrinkles on his old face were now showing out layer by layer, and he was covered in cold sweat.
"No, I don't know."
She really didn't know, and she wouldn't have messed around here if she knew. According to their speculations and those of Shen Lin, the reason why the wool balls moved three times in succession should be that the bones in the ground were moving, which indirectly caused the detected wool balls to move.
But the problem is that the frequency of movement is a bit too frequent. They have experienced it five or six times in only forty minutes, and every time it feels like the ghost that may make them despair, but it turns out to be a false alarm. Matchmaker Zhang now felt that her heart had stopped beating and was frightened.
"It's a good thing. At least we haven't had any other problems here. No matter how high the frequency of movement is, as long as nothing happens, everything will be easy." Zhang Yumiao was also very scared. She was comforting both of them and herself at the same time.
The three of them were lucky enough to be able to reach this point in the terrorist incident. At least they found a safe way to avoid it. As long as no accidents occurred, they could return in triumph.
Now, I just hope nothing unexpected happens.
"Group B reports, Group B reports, the movement has stopped again, everything is normal here now, how about you?" Zhang Yumiao took a few deep breaths, forced herself to calm down and called, and the lighting flashlight above her head fired in a circle.
Indeed, except for the dilapidated houses, the scene where people had died, the weird atmosphere, and the possibility of ghosts appearing at any time, everything here is normal.
The floor was dark, and only part of the area illuminated by the flashlight could be seen.
A little light, countless old floors shrouded in darkness, and strange musty smells and other smells all around, all of which make people short of breath.
"Group A received it, everything is normal."
Shen Lin still stood at the door, not taking a step beyond the realm of possibility.
The door leading to the strange room was open. The inside and outside of the house were only one step away. Shen Lin could feel the strangeness in this room.
The first thing that bears the brunt is lighting.
It was obviously late at night, and there was no light source such as candles or electric lamps shining in the whole room, but it was as clear as day.
Now, the contrast between the comfortable and deep night outside and the calm and peaceful light inside the house is so strong.
"Squeak~"
The opened door automatically closed without any wind, as if it had been pushed by some force.
Bao Ming found out, but he didn't dare to do anything. He didn't even know if this was the key to triggering the law. He could only watch Shen Lin stretch out his hand in horror.
"boom."
The hand belonging to Shen Lin was in direct contact with the antique door. The seemingly slow closing movement had strange power. The moment it touched Shen Lin's hand, a sound erupted.
"This ghost's pattern has nothing to do with the door, but if no one enters the open room for a long time, the ghost with no pattern begins to become restless."
The hand that blocked the door from closing was numb. Li Gui's force in closing the door was stronger than Shen Lin imagined.
Bao Ming nodded blankly, he could understand, but he didn't want to understand. He just wanted to leave here alive now, and he could do anything else.
"The moment we opened the door, we triggered the evil ghost's law to a certain extent, but the trigger was not complete. The evil ghost with incomplete laws cannot do anything to us."
"I understand." Bao Ming nodded like a duck. He was responsible for cheering, while Shen Lin had the final say.
"We are not familiar with the specific situation of the Chaoxing Road Haunted Mansion. The entire Yang'an City's exploration of it is superficial. No one knows what will happen after opening and closing this door, and whether this ghost will be affected by this. Moved location for special reasons.”
What Shen Lin said was correct. The situation of the ghost incident was all kinds of strange. No one knew whether the situation predicted in one second would be applicable in the next second, not to mention that they knew nothing about the Chaoxing Road ghost house incident.
If the ghost in this haunted house is compared to a mouse, then the moment they opened the door, the ghost was already alarmed. Now that the ghost wants to close the door, it is one of the signs. No one can predict what will happen after closing the door.
"Yes, but what can we do?" The more Bao Ming listened, the more something was wrong. He felt that it didn't matter whether he asked a question or not, but he still asked dejectedly.
Shen Lin looked at Bao Ming with a smile, seemingly friendly.
"Simply relying on blocking Li Gui and closing the door is not a long-term solution. One of the main reasons why Li Gui closed the door is that the door of this ghost house has been opened, but no one has entered."
"What happens next?" Bao Ming understood, but he still wanted to struggle to his death, what if he didn't die?
"No, we need to go inside alone. The room in this haunted house is very big. As long as you stay calm after entering and don't do anything deliberately, nothing should happen in a short time. There is still an hour before the time we agreed on. As long as we can spend this hour safely, nothing will be a problem." Shen Lin replied.
"Can't you just go?" Bao Ming said with a mournful face. He had been running away all day long, but now he was finally at gunpoint. If the situation in front of him was likened to a minefield, he didn't even ask Shen Lin who would go into this minefield. There was no need to ask, the answer was too obvious.
"What do you think?" Shen Lin looked at Bao Ming with a smile.
The conversation didn't end, and Bao Ming knew that he couldn't resist. No matter which aspect he started from, he had to go.
As the person in charge of Yang'an City, this incident occurred within the territory of Yang'an City, so he is obligated to do so.
During the period when the person in charge took office, Yang An covered up too many problems, which indirectly led to the current situation. Coupled with the inaction in the Huangquan Road incident, as a captain of Shen Lin's level, no one could say anything about killing him on the spot. What.
So, again, it is clear whether Bao Ming should die now or later.
if not? If he doesn't go, is it possible to let Shen Lin go?
He was very well prepared. Under Shen Lin's gaze, Bao Ming opened the door with a mournful face and entered the room. He walked carefully and with trepidation. Every step he took was like a mouse, looking sideways. But he didn't dare to look at every place in the room openly, for fear of triggering something.
Bao Ming stopped when he reached the open space in the center of the room. This place was completely unconnected. As long as he stood here, he could be safe for a while.
Thinking of this, Bao Ming turned his head, not even looking at the room, and stared straight at Shen Lin, praying that Captain Shen would not ignore him.
The open door was restored. After Bao Ming entered the room, there was no sign of the room closing again. Shen Lin squinted and looked at it carefully.
Obviously there wasn't much change before and after entering, but Shen Lin still felt a strange abnormality. It seemed that something had changed, but he didn't feel it.
"Everything is normal in Group A." Shen Lin lowered his head and responded.
"We are the only ones left." After hearing the voice on the phone, nine-year-old Ding Yi looked at white-collar Dong Guanfeng with an immature expression.
"Did you feel anything?"
Dong Guanfeng held the opened file, his eyes were a little confused for a while, and he still shook his head.
"I don't feel it, but according to the situation described in the file, I should have triggered the law of evil spirits now. The reason why I don't have any real feeling is probably because it has just been triggered. After all, this ghost itself has no body, and the mode of transmission is also very covert. , it should be normal if there are no symptoms.”
"I hope so. According to the description in the file, as time goes by, people who trigger the pattern will have inexplicable voices echoing this mantra in their minds. If the pattern is triggered for half an hour, there is really no way to tell anything. Waiting for half an hour, If something happens, remember to speak up as soon as possible."
It felt strange to be ordered to do things by a nine-year-old child. Fortunately, Dong Guanfeng knew what the occasion was and nodded without hesitation to express his understanding.
"Everything is normal in Group C." Ding Yi took the satellite phone from Zhao Xiaotong and replied.
"We have to continue to take a look at this library. Judging from the current situation, some of the remnants who triggered the pattern after the blockade hid here to avoid capture. Maybe we can find something else."
"Okay." The opinions were unanimous, and the other two people said there was no problem.
"Great, there are no problems. Everything is developing steadily and for the better. Our plan will definitely come true." The successive no problems made matchmaker Zhang feel excited. It was her first time to experience such a large-scale event so smoothly. Unexpectedly, at least so far, none of the three teams has had any problems, which is great.
It's best for everyone to get through this safely, including the terrifying ghost described by Shen Lin later, no one will die, everyone will be safe.
The migrant workers slumped beside them and took a few puffs of cigarettes. The wool ball did not move, and they did not dare to do anything. They could only wait.
"Give me one too." University student Zhang Yumiao said.
"Why do you want to learn this? I grew up in a poor family and learned from you. I don't have any great skills. If you can help it, don't smoke. Look, look at what it says on it. Smoking is harmful to your health." The migrant worker Niu held up the cigarette case under the flashlight. , pointing to the words above and chanting.
"I'm nervous and don't know what to do. I'm thinking of watching TV and smoking a cigarette to relieve my tension." Zhang Yumiao laughed dryly and did not refute.
The migrant worker Niu clenched his fists. There was a hint of sadness on his old face hidden in the darkness. Without saying anything, he took out a cigarette from the cigarette case and handed it to Zhang Yumiao.
"My cigarettes are not good, they are cheap, they choke, they are a bit shabby, don't mind."
"I don't mind, I've never smoked before, so I can't tell the difference between good and bad, so I'm just joining in the fun now." Zhang Yumiao laughed dryly.
"Come on, I'll light it for you." The migrant worker Niu took out a lighter, a flip-top lighter, a zipo, a big brand. His son bought it with his first salary on his birthday last year, and he kept it on his body like a treasure. , I don’t even need it, I just occasionally take it out to show off to my co-workers. Today is the first time.
The firelight from the lighter has a special flavor under the strong light of the flashlight. The dim yellow firelight is ignited by the sparks, and there is a momentary sense of brightness.
It shines on the silly smiling migrant worker Niu, the dry smiling Zhao Yumiao, and the grinning matchmaker Zhang.
as well as
At the end of the corridor, the one covered by black curtains.
Ghost sedan!
Influenza A was very serious. The fever lasted for four days, and the lowest temperature was 38 degrees Celsius.
After that I had to go to work too weak, so when I got home I was too tired to write. I am still coughing and it has not recovered. Please forgive me.
