Eliminator

Chapter 9 Gathering Souls and Beads (9) Someone Behind the Door

"Did you see that man?" I blurted out.

Huang Lei shook his head and continued.

The hand protruding from the mortuary door was not that person's, but an old lady's.The old lady was wearing a bright red dress, her face was painted with white powder, her lips were painted with lipstick, and her nails were also painted with red nail polish.

This shocked Huang Lei a lot, especially when the old lady saw Huang Lei, she smiled and showed her white teeth.

"What do you want from me?" the old lady asked Huang Lei.

Huang Lei paused, the old lady in front of him was not the one he saw just now.Especially that hand, which is not the same as her hand at all.

Another person came out from behind the door, an old man in his 60s. He yelled at the old lady, who grinned and trotted out.

"Who are you?" The old man looked at Huang Lei and asked.

"I have a friend who ran over here, and I found it." Huang Lei said.

"Hurry up, this is the morgue." The old man said gloomyly, and closed the door.

Huang Lei had no choice but to leave resentfully. He didn't go upstairs, but walked to the first floor. He wanted to go out through the back door of the hospital, but he saw Uncle Geng and me.

After listening to Huang Lei's narration, I was full of doubts.But what is certain is that Huang Lei said that the mysterious figure combed Lin Han's hair on the stairs, and then Lin Han ran out of the hospital.If everything Huang Lei said is true, then that mysterious figure is the real culprit who made Lin Han jump off the building.Not only that, the deaths of Wang Xueli and Han Jiajia may all be related to that mysterious person.

It was almost five o'clock in the morning when we got home.I was really sleepy and exhausted after tossing these two nights, I fell asleep as soon as I lay down on the bed, and it was already past two o'clock in the afternoon when I opened my eyes.

The weather in Yucheng is very dry. When I came to Qingya Zhai, Uncle Geng was receiving a client.Seeing me, he waved his hand and let me take it.

The client is an old man in his 60s, and he took a fancy to a sandalwood handle.Handle pieces, at first, generally refer to jade wares that can be held in the hand to enjoy, and later also made of sandalwood and other materials.This kind of thing is a mixture of ancient and modern, and the material and craftsmanship determine the price.The old man has bad eyesight, and what he was looking at was a very cheap miscellaneous item, but he kept asking questions, and Uncle Geng might find it annoying, so he happened to see me and pushed it to me.

Uncle Geng was drinking tea, and when he saw me talking to the old man in a hurry, he snickered from time to time.After the old man left, I started complaining to him.

"Antiques can't be judged by price. Don't look at what the old man bought today is only a few dozen yuan, maybe it will bring you tens of thousands of yuan in business tomorrow?" Uncle Geng gave me a lesson.

"Then how do you push it to me?" I asked.

"The old man knows that I am the boss. People who buy antiques usually like to deal with the buddies. First, they can negotiate the price with the buddies. Second, most of the buddies are laymen. People who buy antiques always want others to think they know what they do." More Uncle started talking about his nonsense again.

"Uncle Geng, do you think there are some evil spirits that can control people with combs?"I remembered what Huang Lei said to me yesterday.

"There is a problem with what you said. Evil spirits are different from people. They don't have a body. To be precise, evil spirits need to be attached to a body to make fun of them." Uncle Geng said.

"It's like this." I simply recounted what Huang Lei told me yesterday.

"So, what Huang Lei discovered basically matches what we discovered." Uncle Geng nodded thoughtfully.

"If the evil spirits are really at work, will Sister Shan be in danger?" I asked.

"What danger is she in?" Uncle Geng snorted.

"Then is there any way to find that mysterious man?" I sat in front of Uncle Geng.

"You child, it's a good thing. But to be honest, I saw that chick's fierce look last night, and I don't know what is behind it? Well, you go to Hou San and let him help you with this matter." Right." Uncle Geng said.

To be honest, a little disappointed.Hou San didn't see much ability when he was in Qianzhang Village.But Uncle Geng told me to find him, but I couldn't help it.I didn't bother to care about it at first, but Huang Lei called me and said that he had found the place where the mysterious man lived, and he had already notified Zhao Shan, and he went there first.

When I heard that Huang Lei had found the mysterious man, my curiosity suddenly arose.I talked to Uncle Geng and ran out in a hurry.

Huang Lei said that the man lived in a residential house on Shiqiao Street, Beihuan Road.

Shiqiao Street is a demolition area, and there are almost no people living there.I got off the bus, walked for another 10 minutes, and turned into Stone Bridge Street.The surrounding area is full of crumbling and dangerous buildings, and the walls next to it are painted with patterns of demolition everywhere.When I walked into the residential building in front, I happened to see Zhao Shan on the phone with her mobile phone.

"Why are you here?" Seeing me, Zhao Shan hung up the phone.

"Huang Lei told me he was here." I said.

"He told me he was in Building No. 2, and there is no one in Building No. 2!" Zhao Shan pointed to the building in front of her with a puzzled expression.

"Building No. 2 is in front, and there are two No. 2 buildings here. The outer No. 2 building has long been unoccupied." I said and walked forward.

Bypassing several abandoned buildings, I saw Building No. 2, and there were some small vendors downstairs.Zhao Shan and I went to Building No. 2, and we saw Room No. 8 on the left side of the third floor.

The whole corridor was quiet, no one was there.The corridor window next to it was broken by someone, and the wind came in from the outside and passed through the corridor, whistling.

In broad daylight, it was eerie.I shrunk my neck.

Zhao Shan had been calling Huang Lei just now, but no one answered.

"Will it go in?" I asked.

"Impossible." Zhao Shan called again, but no one answered.But I vaguely heard a cell phone ringing.Zhao Shan saw my expression and understood.

I walked forward listening to the sound, and stopped at the door of a room in front.

Zhao Shan hung up the phone, and the ringing stopped abruptly.

Zhao Shan dialed again, and the phone rang inside.

"Huang Lei." I tapped on the door.

The phone inside was ringing, but no one answered.

"Is nothing going to happen?" My heart skipped a beat, and I knocked on the door again. This time, perhaps with too much force, the door was actually pushed open by me.

A thick cloud of dust came from the room.Zhao Shan and I looked at each other and walked in.

This is an old house, in addition to the strong smell of dust, it smells more of decay.The curtains were drawn in the house, it was dark, and the scene inside could only be seen slightly clearly.

Zhao Shan called Huang Lei again, this time, the phone clearly came from a room next to her.Zhao Shan and I walked in against the sound.

I saw a Nokia mobile phone with green fluorescent lights ringing non-stop on the ground, it was Huang Lei's mobile phone.

I squatted down and walked over, picked up the mobile phone, looked up and saw a mirror with the height of a person on the opposite side, from the reflection of the mirror, I clearly saw the door of the room closed slowly, a figure in black clothes Walking out slowly from the door, she stretched out a pale hand, and put it on Zhao Shan's back silently...
