Daughter-in-law

Chapter 31 I'm Not Human
Lucky Apartments.

I frowned, because I had never heard of this place. After all, I am not from Jishui and I just came here.

Although I don't know the place, I am very interested in the haunted house. Now I am not only a magician, but also a errand. Catching ghosts is my job.

"I've heard about that place. In the western suburbs of Jishui, it is said that the landlord's family of five committed suicide by burning coal ten years ago. Two adults and three children. After that, there were many legends, saying that they heard someone crying at night, and some people saw the dead landlord at night, and they almost peed their pants." Said the old Taoist next to him.

"After my wife disappeared, the police adjusted a lot of surveillance cameras, and the last clue was near the Jixiang apartment, where she disappeared, and there were no more clues," the man said.

Although I am more interested in that auspicious apartment, I am not going to agree to the man asking me to help investigate the disappearance of his wife. You must know that although I am a bad guy, it is the duty of the police to investigate missing persons. have a finger in the pie.

"I'm sorry, I think you still have to trust the police, I can't help you much." I said to him.

"No, it's not what you think, there are ghosts in that apartment!" Hearing my refusal, the man became a little anxious, and took out a mobile phone from his pocket.

"Look, this is a message from my wife." He said and raised the phone to me.

I glanced at it, it was a text message, the note was written by his wife, it should have been sent to him by her wife, the message was received in the early morning of this morning, and there was only a short sentence: I am in Jixiang Apartment, help me!

Looking at this text message, I couldn't help but frown. The man's wife has been missing for a week, but why did you still send him a message this morning?

"Have you ever gone to see her?" I asked the man.

"I went to look for it, but I'm not a policeman, so I can't search from house to house, so I came to you for help." The man said.

Hearing his words, I was even more puzzled. Since there was a distress message from his wife, why didn't he go to the police and ask the police to help? Is there any secret I don't know?

"From the second day after my wife disappeared, I received this text message every morning. The time and content are exactly the same, but as long as I fall asleep and wake up again, this text message will disappear." The man felt helpless Said.

I frowned when I heard this, knowing that something was really wrong.

It is impossible for a man to delete text messages by himself, so why do text messages disappear as soon as he closes his eyes?
"At first I thought about going to the police, but after a few days, I felt that this matter was not simple. My wife came across something unclean in all likelihood, so I came to Linfeng Street."

"Then why didn't the short message disappear today?" I asked him.

The man smiled wryly, held his mobile phone, and said, "I already know how this text message disappears, so I didn't sleep all night last night. As long as I don't fall asleep, this text message will not disappear."

"Can I see it?" I held out my hand to him.

The man handed me the phone without hesitation.

That text message is normal, and there is nothing wrong with it except for the content of the text. Could it be that someone kidnapped his wife and played a prank on him every day.

I shook my head, even if someone wanted to mess with this man, the text message would disappear as soon as he fell asleep, there is no way to explain this.

"Ever called your wife?" I asked him.

The man nodded with red eyes, and said, "I have called. I have been calling for the past few days, but I can't get through. I can't get through at all."

I took the phone, clicked on the number, and dialed back.

beep.
This time, there was a ringtone on the phone, and the connection was made!

"It's connected!" Hearing the voice on the phone, the man almost jumped up excitedly, staring at the phone in my hand.

His appearance is not pretending. It seems that what he said is true. He has been unable to get through his wife's phone these days.

I'm also a little strange, I don't know why I got through as soon as I hit it, it doesn't seem like a coincidence.

The phone was still ringing, and after a long time, it was finally connected, but there was no sound from the other side, just silence.

"Where are you, your husband misses you very much." I said to the phone.

The man's excited lips kept trembling, and he couldn't even speak.

I glanced at him and knew that this was a normal reaction. If a person is agitated to a certain extent, he really can't speak.

"Hey, can you hear me?" I asked again into the silent phone.

"what!"

At this moment, a miserable cry came from the phone, it was a woman's voice, and the voice was full of panic and fear.

"Fuck!" The old Taoist was startled by the ear-piercing scream, and took two steps back.

"Yes, yes, it's her!" Hearing this voice, the man suddenly became excited, pointing at the phone, trembling all over.

"Where are you?" I asked into the phone.

But after a scream, the phone fell silent again.

"I'm in Jixiang Apartment, come and save me!" A moment later, the woman's voice sounded again, but this time it sounded extremely weak and lifeless.

"Did someone arrest you?" I asked her.

It's just that the woman on the other side has no voice.

Although there has been silence on the phone, I have a strong feeling that someone or something must be holding the phone at this time, and he is quietly listening to me.

"What are you?" I asked, frowning.

"You shouldn't be nosy, meddling will not end well, for example, you will die."

At this time, another voice came from the phone, it was a man's voice, it sounded unusually old, and it gave people a very strange feeling, hearing this voice made you feel goose bumps involuntarily.

"Who the hell are you? Kidnapping is against the law!" I said sharply while holding the phone.

"Hehehe, break the law? Are you a policeman, but unfortunately I'm not human, you can't catch me." The voice rang again, and then hung up the phone directly.

I took the mobile phone and continued to call back, but this time, the call could no longer be connected.

He is not human.

Thinking about what the guy on the phone said, I touched my chin.

Since you are not human, then I really have to take care of it, because I am a errand, and I catch ghosts.
