Chapter 13 The Invitation from the Wraith

When Chen Guai showed up at home, it was already [-]:[-] in the morning.

Summer is approaching, and the sky is already getting brighter now.But what is not surprising is that there is a thick fog outside, and the visibility is less than 50 meters, and even the opposite building cannot be seen clearly.

However, Chen Guai was already used to this. The foggy weather was too frequent recently, but nothing special happened. It was just that the foggy weather seriously hindered the traffic.

I took a shower and washed up briefly.I don't know why, but Chen Guai felt that the weather was a bit cold. He thought to himself that it was already May, and could it be the cold spring?
Because of the chill, Chen Kuai sat at the tea table in the living room after taking a shower.He boiled a pot of water and prepared to make himself a pot of weak tea.

An extraordinary sense of taste must bring about an extremely picky lifestyle.Chen Kuai had tried all the beverages on the market except mineral water, including milk tea, coffee, milk, yogurt and various juices, etc. Too strong taste would only bring him endless troubles.Only pure water and light tea can keep him at peace.

However, although Chen Kuai likes to drink tea, he doesn't care too much about the specific kind of tea.For him, different flavors of tea are like different flavors of beverages, he can adapt and drink them all.

If you have to divide your preferences, Chen Kuai likes teas with tender fragrance, such as Maojian and Huangya.Or rosin incense, such as Lapsang Souchong, with a hint of natural woody fragrance.Or sweet flavors such as oolong tea and Tieguanyin.

As the saying goes, the first water, the second tea, the third and the fourth are the essence.Chen Kuai always only started drinking from the third way, and stopped drinking from the fourth way, without exception.

"Dong Dong Dong~"

After tossing around until [-]:[-], Chen Kuai was drinking four courses of tea when there was a knock on the door suddenly.

"Ok?"

Chen Guai was a little puzzled, who knocked on his door so early?But then I remembered that Grandma Liu, who was at the door yesterday, said she was going to call me to have breakfast, so she couldn't help smiling, I'm really not used to this kind of enthusiasm!

However, even if the elderly wake up earlier, is it too early to call themselves to eat at this point?
Chen Kuai put down his teacup, got up and came to the door, through the peephole, he saw Grandma Liu.However, the situation is a bit strange, because at this moment, Grandma Liu is also looking at herself through the cat's eyes, her wrinkled face is full of gloomy breath.

"wrong."

Chen Kuai's pupils shrank slightly, his heart skipped a beat, and then his brows were tightly wrinkled.Because, through the cat's eyes, he saw Grandma Liu's message, it was a... resentful soul.

However, it stands to reason that even if Grandma Liu has become a resentful soul, at this moment, I shouldn't see Grandma Liu.

I saw that Chen Kui's heart moved, and the spiritual slingshot appeared in his hand.Immediately, Chen Kuai opened the door.If it's just a resentful soul, when she is in a good mental state and she can't intimidate herself, the other party can hardly cause harm to herself.

"Squeak."

When Chen Wei opened the door, the first thing he sensed was the smell, which was the smell of corpses.Instead, the stench of corpses came from all directions outside the door.In addition to the smell of corpses, there is also the smell of wine and peanuts.

At this moment, Grandma Liu was wearing a blue-black linen dress, with no smile on her face, only gray and pale.

Chen Kuai looked at Grandma Liu and didn't speak.The latter said with a blank face: "Little monster~ Come to eat~ Freshly cooked glutinous rice balls~ Eat while it's hot~"

Chen Wei's eyelids twitched a few times, because Grandma Liu's voice slowed down, with an ending sound, dragging on for a long time, which is often seen in horror movies.

But, can resentful souls speak?But Chen Guai thought, at least that extraordinary ghost last night could talk, so why can't resentful souls talk?
After a pause for a few seconds, Chen Kuai said, "Grandma Liu, have you eaten so early? Where's Grandpa Wang?"

Grandma Liu's eyes were a bit abnormally dead gray, and her reaction seemed to be a little slow. She looked at Chen Wei for a few seconds before she said, "I'm getting old~ I got up early~ Old Wang has bad legs~ He's frying peanuts at home." ~Let’s eat while it’s hot~”

Grandma Liu spoke for a long time, her voice seemed to become more and more stiff, and her voice was a bit drawn out, making her look ghostly, but fortunately, Chen Guai was very patient.

When Grandma Liu finished speaking, Chen Kuai smiled slightly: "Okay! But Grandma Liu, you go back first, I'll brush my teeth, and I'll be here in two or three minutes."

"Hurry up~ or the glutinous rice balls will be cold~"

"it is good!"

Seeing that Chen Kuai agreed, Grandma Liu turned around in front of Chen Kuai, drifted back, and floated in directly through the anti-theft door of their house.

When Grandma Liu's resentful spirit entered the room, Chen Kuai's expression turned cold.A kind of anger came to my heart.Because he also smelled the stench of corpses from the stairs downstairs and upstairs.

Of course he is not stupid.Building No. 10 was fine yesterday, and Grandma Liu went to see someone jumping off a building.Just because I visited Building 18 last night, Grandma Liu's family, upstairs and downstairs, all died early this morning.He said it had nothing to do with him, but he didn't believe it.

Chen Kuai knew that the female ghost probably followed her yesterday.I went into the monster cafeteria, so the other party couldn't find me, so I took these ordinary people in Building 10 to vent my anger.

People always have feelings. Grandma Liu and Mr. Wang who are opposite each other treat him very well on weekdays.Although he has just moved here, people often call him over to eat, and he is very enthusiastic.

Now that they are all dead and people have turned into ghosts, he still remembers to ask him to eat, which makes him feel deeply guilty.He even wanted to go directly to building No. 18 and kill that female ghost.

Close the door.

Chen Kuai took a pack of cigarettes and a lighter from the porch shelf at the door, but he didn't smoke, but put them in his pocket.Then he went back to the tea table and sat down, and continued to hold the teacup, but his mind was not on the tea at all, he just needed to calm himself down.

Although he wanted to hit Building 18, he knew he couldn't. The clown mask would have to wait 12 hours before it could be used.Even if you are angry, anger cannot solve the problem, and irrational anger will only kill you.

Therefore, even if you want to take revenge, you have to wait until you wake up, or use other methods.

At this moment, what Chen Guai needs to think about is how should he deal with Grandma Liu and the others?
At this moment, he doesn't know whether Grandma Liu's resentful soul is malicious or not, but regardless of whether it is malicious or not, the characteristics of the resentful soul are there, sucking yang energy, haunting the body, and intimidating others.

Even if they are not malicious to themselves, can you guarantee that they are not malicious to others?

Although I feel guilty, guilt does not mean that I have to indulge.

"Gudu~"

Chen Kuai drank the tea in the cup in one gulp, and a smartphone appeared in his hand the next moment.The monster canteen, as a special space, would naturally prepare some spare items in it.For example, clothes, shoes, cash, mobile phones, etc.

After turning on the phone, Chen Kuai dialed Yaoyaoling directly.In fact, he has a better choice, which is Lin Lingsu's call.But calling Lin Lingsu right now is tantamount to self-destructing.

And Chen Kuai had already followed Lin Lingsu and Lao Yan, and had seen a policewoman beside Lin Lingsu many times, so he chose to trust the understanding ability of Yaoyaoling.

"Beep...beep..."

On the other end of the phone, the young lady's crisp voice rang out: "This is the Beimen District Public Security Bureau. May I help you?"

Chen Kui immediately said: "In Room 88, Building 10, Dongfang Yayuan, No. 604 Tianhe Road, an old couple died strangely. The cause of death is unknown."

The other end of the phone froze for a moment: "Sir, are you there?"

Chen Kuai: "Forget it!"

The other end of the phone: "Okay! We will call the police immediately, and please don't destroy the scene."

"Wait a moment."

On the other end of the phone: "Sir, what's the matter?"

Chen Kuai: "Well, I have something else, I don't know if I should say it or not."

The lady on the other end of the phone: "Sir, you can talk to the police about anything."

Chen Guai: "I said I met a ghost just now, and she wants to invite me to dinner, do you believe it?"

The lady on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment: "Sir, please don't joke. Well, if there is nothing else, I will hang up first, and we will arrive as soon as possible."

"Beep beep..."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Kuai pondered for a while, then got up.He believed in the judging ability of Yaoyaoling. Since there are monsters in this world, there must be more than one or two ordinary people who are harmed by monsters.The official organization can set up the Hunter Administration, so there is no reason for it to be ignorant of this kind of thing.

Sure enough, after the operator hung up the phone just now, he immediately dialed a mysterious number: "An abnormal death occurred in Room 88, Building 10, Dongfang Yayuan, No. 604 Tianhe Road. It is suspected to be a ghost, and the ghost is most likely in action right now."

A young man's voice on the other side of the phone responded, "Understood."
