Mysterious country

Entering the last house on the 15th floor, Xia Qi found a large amount of blood stains near the window sill and in the corners of the bedroom.

There were also some fragments of clothes scattered on the ground. Xia Qi picked up these fragments one by one and observed them. He found that the edges of the fragments were irregular and full of small jagged gaps. This made Xia Qi think of, The murderous ghost might have a row of teeth as sharp as jagged teeth.

Now it is almost certain that the way the ghost kills people is to eat people directly. I can't imagine how big the ghost's stomach is, and how it can digest so many residents after eating it.

Of course, the physical structure of ghosts is definitely different from humans, and there is no way to bring in human logic. Just as Leng Yue once told him, only a small part of the ghosts in the world were transformed after human beings died, and the vast majority of the rest were terrifying monsters who didn't know how to appear.

They are like natural enemies of human beings, with a very strong desire for human life.

Xia Qi thought that maybe ghosts were the natural enemies of human beings, and humans were born with an inexplicable fear of them.

Just like human beings when they are very young, they clearly do not understand what ghosts are, but when they hear the word "ghost", they will feel inexplicable fear in their hearts, and they will always be suspicious and afraid in the middle of the night.

Regarding this, after joining this company, Xia Qi made two bold speculations.

The reason why humans are so afraid of ghosts may be related to the fact that humans are very young. Perhaps when humans were very young, they could actually see some scary things, and such things were ghosts.

However, due to growth, this kind of memory will be slowly forgotten, but it will be stored in the subconscious. Then when someone mentions ghosts or encounters some weird things, they can't help but think about ghosts.

Or perhaps, the reason why humans are afraid of ghosts is related to human genes.

Perhaps ghosts were originally a species in this world and were the earliest natural enemies of human beings. They once left an indelible memory of terror to humans. Later, with the development and inheritance of humans, this memory of terror was permanently retained as genetic code. Come down.

But regardless of whether the truth is what he guessed, he felt that there must be some special connection between ghosts and humans, otherwise humans would never talk about ghosts.

"Mr. Xia, come here and see what this is."

Just when Xia Qi's attention was slightly distracted, Wang Sangyu's voice pulled him back again.

Xia Qi nodded after hearing this and walked quickly to Wang Sangyu's side.

Nie Feng also came over at this time and saw Wang Sangyu pointing to the pool of blood near the window sill and saying:

"Look, there is a strange pattern in the blood."

Xia Qi looked in the direction of Wang Sangyu's finger and saw a figure about seven or eight centimeters long and wide in the blood. This figure looked like a duck's feet, with a total of four on it.

"I seem to have seen this pattern in a room I inspected before. But I didn't pay much attention to it at the time, but now it seems that this thing is not formed by uneven blood spatter.

But it seems like nothing can be seen. "

Looking at the pattern that looked like duck feet expressed his thoughts, Nie Feng turned to Xia Qi and asked:

"Mr. Xia, can you tell anything?"

"I can't tell." Xia Qi shook his head, also not knowing what this pattern was.

"Could it be a coincidence?" Wang Sangyu couldn't help but said something when he saw that neither Nie Feng nor Xia Qi could tell.

"What coincidence?" Xia Qi looked at Wang Sangyu:

"Are you saying that the pattern was created by coincidence when the resident's blood was spilled?"

"We can't seem to find a better explanation."

Wang Sangyu smiled helplessly, while Xia Qi shook his head thoughtfully:

"Since this pattern has appeared in the previous house, it is probably not a coincidence. But it is indeed a bit strange. How could a pattern like a duck's foot appear in the blood spattered by the deceased when the ghost killed someone?

Could this pattern be the feet of a ghost? "

"It can eat so many residents, so it shouldn't be that small, unless it's a ghost baby."

Nie Feng didn't think that the pattern was a trace left by a ghost stepping on it. After all, from the time they entered the first house to now, except for the unknown pattern like a duck's foot, they almost never found anything. Something to do with ghosts.

After hearing this, Xia Qi didn't say anything else, but waved at the two of them and said:

"Take a photo of this pattern, let's leave here first and return to the 12th floor."

Xia Qi has been feeling vaguely uneasy since he entered the 15th floor. He is always worried that the ghost that ran downstairs to kill people will suddenly return.

So at this time, Nie Feng and the others were not allowed to delay any longer, so they walked out of this house one after another.

Because He Yuying was responsible for guarding the door, she stayed at the end to close the door. But the moment she closed the door, she vaguely seemed to see something flashing past the edge of the door.

But when she reacted, the door was completely closed.

He Yuying trembled, no longer daring to stay behind slowly, and hurriedly shouted and chased after everyone.

"Ghost...I just saw a ghost!"

Hearing what He Yuying said, Xia Qi didn't even ask him, but directly reminded a few people to run as fast as they could. However, when they ran to the elevator door with all their strength, they unfortunately found that the elevator didn't know when it would get off. Arrived at the 9th floor.

"Damn it!"

Xia Tian Qi hurriedly pressed the button for going downstairs several times, only to see the elevator rising slowly.

At the same time, He Yuying burst into a series of terrifying screams.

Hearing the sound, Xia Qi turned around and saw a large ghost standing outside the door of the house they had just left!

This ghost was wearing a piece of clothing that looked like a windbreaker, covering its entire body, leaving only its huge head exposed.

Its two eyes were slightly blood red, and its nose and mouth seemed to be assembled together, bulging outwards, looking extremely uncoordinated.

The entire ghost was more than 2 meters tall, with black veins protruding from its bald head, forming extremely disgusting lines on it.

There is no doubt that this ghost, which was extremely mysterious in their eyes before, finally appeared now.

The moment he saw the ghost, Xia Qi paid special attention to the ghost's feet. The two soles of the ghost's feet were nearly half a meter in size, and there was a disgusting black substance on them. It must have been a solid substance formed by dried blood.
