Trying to pretend to be human today

Chapter 4 The Bathroom

Baisu lives alone in a one-bedroom apartment with relatively complete facilities.
The rent is expensive due to the location, but it is more comfortable to live in.

All the policemen who came to this house had a common feeling, as a male living alone, this house is very clean.

It wasn't spotless, but compared to other houses they had been to, Baisu's place was a little messy except for food, and everything else was in order.

Or rather, use it infrequently.

This was the first feeling of the two police officers who entered the bathroom.

There are not many toiletries on the simple shelves, and the towels on the towel rack are very dry after being touched by hand.

The two glanced at each other and looked at different locations separately.

They first bypassed the mess near the sink, and took pictures around with the testing equipment. As the number of the equipment climbed, they confirmed that this bathroom had been haunted by ghosts.

The positions where the numbers soar are gathered in the direction of the sink and bathtub.

The former value is still at a high level, but is falling slowly, while the latter value is relatively fixed, circling back and forth between 10-15.

A high value means that the spirit is still there or has just left. According to the classification of Bloody Mary by their special department, the number is below 100 and continues to decline, indicating that Bloody Mary should have left.

As for 10-15, it means that the bathtub was visited by ghosts a long time ago.

After measuring the value, the police found that the water valve switch in the bathroom was turned off, and the continuous gushing of tap water stopped, which saved a little water bill.

'look here. '

Without making a sound, the police officer with glasses mouthed a word to his female teammate, and looked in the direction he was pointing. The woman with the high ponytail saw two fingerprints.

Fingerprints were pressed on the edge of the bathtub, and the policeman in glasses wiped them casually.

'The bathtub has not been used for a long time. '

The woman with the high ponytail made a note, and then she walked towards the shower, and also touched ash at the shower.

'And without a shower...? '

As odd as they are, they are tentatively understood as some personal quirk.

It's not that I haven't encountered it before, but they respect it anyway.

After inspecting the rest of the bathroom, the two came to today's highlight - around the sink.

In the replays of the live broadcast they got from the live broadcast platform, the entire "Bloody Mary" game revolved around this place.

The black-haired man lit a candle, closed his eyes, and called Bloody Mary's name three times.

In the process of closing their eyes, the face in the mirror changed several times, and they could feel the strong malice of the spirit towards human beings through the screen.

The change in pupil color and the smile at the beginning were just teasing, but the bloody jumping face behind was frightening.

As far as they know, Bloody Mary often captures the victim in the mirror when the human being can't move after scaring the human being out of their wits.

Although Bloody Mary is the evil spirit of the West, in the current rapid development of information circulation, it is impossible to guard against the extremely fast spread of the gameplay of a supernatural game.

The male teammate wearing glasses shook his head at this thought, and continued to look at the sink.

The white candles burned for less than half of the time and were accidentally wiped out by the water. Now they are hanging on the wreckage of the sink on the left and on the right.

Most of the washbasin collapsed, and the water pipes from the central faucet to the bottom were torn by force. The extremely violent means exposed the pipes behind the tiles to the air.

Looking up along the wall, where the mirror should have been, there are only a large spider web of cracks and a few pieces of corner glass fixed by steel nails.

In the middle of the crack was a deep depression, as far as they could judge, the size of two or three human fists.

It doesn't look like human beings in any way.

Doubt remained in the eyes of the two police officers. They couldn't figure out what hammered the wall.

The dark-haired youth outside?
Impossible, human beings will not have such power.

They also didn't doubt that Baisu had special abilities.

Because if they are possessed by ghosts, their machines will sound an alarm when they enter the door, or if they have abilities different from ordinary people, the machines will also sound.

As for the existence beyond their cognition?That is the unknown territory, and they are engaged in this profession to try to explore everything in the fog.

'It feels like other ghosts have come besides Bloody Mary. '

'Same level?This numerical value should be an existence of the same level, but is there any supernatural characteristic of this?"

The policeman wearing glasses couldn't think of it, so he could only write down his thoughts truthfully.

Next, the two put on special gloves and picked up shards of broken glass from shallow puddles.

I numbered each fragment, and found an empty space next to the locker, arranged the fragments according to the number, and tried to piece them together further.

'wrong. The female players with high ponytails took the lead in pointing out, "It's a lot less." '

They made sure that every corner of the bathroom had been searched, and all the fragments they could find were placed here, but it was still far from being able to piece together a complete mirror.

Counting the barely made outlines, there are about a dozen pieces missing.

The few fragments have nothing in common, as if chosen at random.

'Bloody Mary... is it because the mirror is her vehicle?Because of the appearance of another spirit, she was shattered, and then disappeared with those fragments? '

'It can be assumed that, then there is no new problem? '

The two looked out of the bathroom door in unison, where their captain was questioning the owner of the room, the player of Bloody Mary.

He was not injured, nor was he mentally disturbed.

It can even be said that it is too normal.

He didn't have the fear of facing Bloody Mary, and he didn't have the panic of facing the second ghost, so it seemed strange to be too normal.

The female players with high ponytails speculated: 'Self-protection? '

The male teammate wearing glasses nodded: "Maybe, the captain and the others will judge." '

After that, the two stopped chatting, packed the glass fragments in evidence bags, and prepared to go back to the work unit for inspection with professional tools.

Before leaving the bathroom, the police officer wearing glasses suddenly remembered something, and he made a gesture to wait.

The male team member turned back, leaned forward to support himself in the bathtub, and stretched out his hand towards the floor drain.

The floor drain opens as soon as it is pulled, and something is connected under the floor drain.

The female police officer with a high ponytail also came back at this time. She watched her teammate keep pulling and pulling out something unexpected from the sewer.

Hair is anything but hair or hair.

Countless thick and dense long hairs piled up at the bottom of the bathtub, and by the time the male players pulled out all the hair, the bathtub had already been covered with a layer.

It is not difficult to see that this bathtub and the connected sewer pipes have been occupied by some ghost.

So, who was the person who took a bath in this bathtub at that time...?
