Chapter 28 Ghosts
After sitting quietly for 20 minutes without talking, the two of them ate the burgers after they were delivered. Seeing that Bobby looked very elegant when eating, Liang Xi had questions this time: "Since you have an arrogant personality and look down on roadside food, and you still have a lot of time, why don't you go?"
Eat what you like?"
Bobby pretended to be mysterious: "Because if I leave, you won't see ghosts... This burger is delicious, more flavorful than the burgers I usually eat."
Liang Xi replied: "That's because you are hungry."
Bobby: "How do you know?"
Liang Xi: "If you weren't hungry, how could you ask me to order food for you?" Are you insulting my profession or your own personality?
Bobby looked at Liang Xi and said, "That makes sense. You are quite interesting as a detective."
Bobby first gave Liang Xi a slight affirmation. Liang Xi was not a bad guy. He politely said, "You, a psychic, are also interesting." Although he didn't know how interesting he was.
Poppy did not answer the question, but was thoughtful. After finishing the burger, Poppy said: "I'll tell you a secret."
Liang Xidao: "You don't have to say it."
Bobby said: "Actually, I can't communicate with ghosts."
Liang Xi asked in disbelief: "Really?"
Bobby couldn't bear it anymore and raised his middle finger. Feeling that it was not enough, he put down the Coke and raised another one. Liang Xi was too lazy to pay attention. He had already run out of English words to curse, so repeating it seemed like he was at a loss for words.
Liang Xi's lack of response made Poppy very embarrassed, so she quietly retracted her middle finger and said: "From middle school to today, I have lived in the haunted house rumored on the Internet. It has been haunted more than a hundred times, and I have never seen any ghosts."
Liang Xi asked: "What? Even the ghosts don't want to see you?"
Poppy waved his hand, not wanting to talk to Liang Xi, and went to the bathroom in the big room to pee. He peed, washed his hands, and walked out of the big room. Liang Xi stood aside: "Hey."
Poppy jumped three feet high and was furious. Liang Xi ran away immediately. Poppy chased him into the hall. Liang Xi hurriedly said: "Fall to death! Let me see if you are afraid of ghosts."
Bobby glanced at Liang Xi bitterly. He knew that he would still suffer a loss in the fight, so he gritted his teeth and said, "I'm not afraid of ghosts, I'm afraid of people."
The two returned to their positions. Bobby sat back on the sleeping bag he had brought, and Liang Xi sat directly on the wooden floor. After sitting for a while, his buttocks felt uncomfortable, and Liang Xi stood up: "I'll go to a nearby store to buy a cushion."
Bobby hurriedly said: "No, if you leave the house, the ghost may not appear."
Liang Xi had doubts in his heart. He already had some mature reasoning about the so-called haunted house. He only needed to meet and talk with Lily, and after completing the puzzle, he could confirm whether it was Lily's mental problem or whether there was really an intruder. But after hearing what Bobby said,
He said that Liang Xi did not understand the reason why Bobby was so sure that there were ghosts at night. Because whether there was an intruder or Lily had mental problems, according to his reasoning, there was no possibility of a ghost appearing tonight.
Liang Xi could see that Bobby was arrogant in his heart. He was so persistent and certain that he could see ghosts and would not be blind. Thinking of Bobby's experience of living in haunted houses and haunted houses a hundred times, Liang Xi felt a little unsure.
Liang Xi asked: "Have you ever seen a ghost?"
Bobby did not immediately answer Liang Xi's question, but asked: "Do you believe it?"
Liang Xi shook his head.
Bobby was not surprised: "No one believed me. I was ten years old when my grandfather died. I saw him the night before he was buried. He told me that the pastor was sick and could not conduct his funeral tomorrow. Let me
I contacted another pastor. After I called the other pastor, his smile disappeared. Sure enough, the pastor was sick and couldn't get up the next day. Fortunately, another pastor came to preside over the funeral."
Liang Xi: "What a pity, didn't you ask him?"
Bobby asked: "What's the question?"
Liang Xi: "The numbers for the next lottery draw."
"Fake." Poppy threw an empty cup at Liang Xi, and the paper cup fell between the two of them. Poppy said with great melancholy: "No one wants to believe me, and they asked me if I had a high fever, and asked me to do a brain MRI."
Resonance..."
"Pee." Liang Xi stood up and went to the bathroom.
Bobby asked: "Do you have basic manners? Can't you wait until I finish speaking?"
Liang Xi: "I was so scared that I wet my pants."
Liang Xi entered the bathroom, peed, washed his hands, and stopped at the door: "When I am scared, I will subconsciously throw an uppercut."
"Haha." Bobby laughed dryly and left the door.
Sure enough, he was a swordsman. Liang Xi didn't have clairvoyant eyes, so he didn't know if there was anyone at the door. He just judged the villain's belly with a villain's heart and made casual remarks.
…
Time passed by, and the night rain came as expected. In the house, only the corridor and hall on the second floor were lit. Bobby got into his sleeping bag and slept peacefully, while Liang Xi lay down casually on the wooden floor to rest.
The ancient church in the distance rang the early morning bell. Bobby immediately got out of the sleeping bag and glanced at Liang Xi. Liang Xi opened his eyes, and Bobby made a silent gesture, and the two leaned against the wall quietly.
wait.
"Squeak!" Ten minutes later, there was a sound of wood under pressure from downstairs, and Liang Xi's heart went crazy. There was no wooden floor on the first floor, and the second and third floors were all wooden floors. The sound was obviously coming from downstairs, and the only
The possibility is that it is the wooden stairs, and something is stepping on the wooden stairs to make a sound. However, it cannot be ruled out that thermal expansion and contraction cause the wooden stairs to make sounds.
A gust of night wind blew into the lobby on the second floor. Liang Xi looked at Bobby and pointed to the window: Did you open the window?
Poppy shook his head slowly, stood up and leaned to the edge of the hall, stretched his head to look at the corridor, and immediately retracted: "Something is coming in."
Liang Xi asked: "Can you speak now?"
Bobby mocked and asked: "Do you think they are afraid of us?"
Liang Xi walked to Bobby and plucked up the courage to look into the corridor. He saw that the window at the end of the corridor was open. Liang Xi was shocked because he had gone to the bathroom once at 11 o'clock and the window was closed. From 11 o'clock to just now
, Bobby did not leave the hall on the second floor. The only possibility is that someone used a long pole to open the window.
Poppy looked serious and took out a small Bagua made of unknown material from his bag. The workmanship was very poor. Poppy held the Bagua in his hand and muttered something in his mouth. He slowly walked to the corridor window and hung the Bagua by the window.
On a nail. Turning back and walking towards the hall, Bobby said: "I have blocked their escape route."
When Bobby walked back to the hall, there was a muffled thud, as if someone stepped on the wooden stairs, or something fell on the wooden stairs. Liang Xi could be 100% sure that it was definitely not caused by thermal expansion and contraction.
sound.
The brave man is invincible! Liang Xi ran downstairs, and when he reached the first floor, he turned on the light according to the location he remembered. The small living room on the first floor was empty. Liang Xi glanced upstairs, and Bobby shook his head, indicating that he did not want to go down.
Impossible, there couldn't be a ghost. Liang Xi took a deep breath, plucked up the courage, and pushed open the kitchen door. The kitchen was empty. The back door and window were closed. Liang Xi took out a flashlight and shined it on the door handle. Here was a piece of paper he placed.
The appearance, appearance, and even arrangement of the scraps of paper remained unchanged, indicating that the door had never been opened.
Liang Xi opened the doors of each room on the first floor, but the answer did not change. All Liang Xi saw were empty rooms.
Liang Xi soon made sure that no one was hiding on the first floor.
Damn it!
Liang Xi walked up the stairs and looked up to see Bobby holding a string of beads and counting them, looking at him with great love: "You will be its prey."
Liang Xi asked: "Where is it?"
Bobby said seriously: "It's right behind you."
