Nightmare Apostle

It's not unexpected that Luo Zhaoqing was in trouble. Why was there someone else missing in the crew? Song Yan asked during breakfast. Yu Mi and Xiang Xiaolin didn't receive a call last night, and they were fine all night.

"Song Yan, did Luo Zhaoqing say on the phone last night that he was with the crew?" Xiang Xiaolin asked doubtfully.

"No, he was alone. He said Lu Ji wouldn't let him go back." Song Yan didn't hide anything on this point.

At this moment, Yu Mi spoke very carefully, "How about... how about we call Director Ding and ask what's going on?"

"It's better not to bother Director Ding. Everything is in chaos over there." Xiang Xiaolin borrowed the mobile phone from the store owner, found the number and dialed it back. It was a woman from the crew. She planned to ask for Lu Ji's room number, but she couldn't find it at all. Didn't get through and was hung up directly.

There was no source of information, so the four of them decided to go back to the room to rest. After an unknown amount of time, Yang Xiao, who was lying on the bed half asleep, was awakened by the sound of a phone call. Song Yan picked up the phone and it was the crew calling. Come, let them prepare and gather in front of the inn.

It was already noon now, and it was still the white van that came to pick them up, but the driver changed.

It was also a familiar face. Yang Xiao recalled for a moment and remembered that this person had greeted them at the school with Principal Wu, and he was also a teacher at the school.

The teacher had a very bad look on his face. He didn't say a word of unnecessary nonsense after getting in the car. He stepped on the accelerator and took them to a hotel.

The hotel has more than ten floors. It is definitely a luxurious place in this town. It is inlaid with pieces of blue glass. This decoration style looks quite old.

Surprisingly, the school bus requisitioned by the crew was also parked in front of the hotel. However, the glass on one side of the bus was smashed, the left and right reversing mirrors were broken, and the body of the bus was splashed with red paint. At first glance, it looked like , as if splattered with blood.

"What...what's going on?" Yu Mi was startled after getting off the car, and subconsciously looked at the male teacher who was driving.

Unexpectedly, the male teacher's face darkened, "Don't ask me, how do I know? It wasn't us."

Being frightened by the male teacher, Yu Mi suddenly didn't dare to speak. Before the group entered the hotel lobby, they heard an argument inside.

"The car is parked here, why do you say you are not responsible?" A crew member blocked the front desk.

He shouted to the people inside, "I'm telling you, there are our props and photography equipment in the car, and now it's like this, delaying our shooting, you must compensate!"

Seeing Yang Xiao and the others arriving, another crew member took them to the sofa in the corner, where Director Ding was sitting, smoking a cigarette.

"You're finally here!" Director Ding put out the cigarette butt with all his strength, "How are you, were you okay last night?

Seeing Director Ding's worried face, Yang Xiao knew that a lot must have happened during this period, so he made eye contact with Song Yan, and out of temptation, told them about Luo Zhaoqing's phone call that night. As for the ghost handprints He omitted that part. Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Director Ding slammed the table and stood up suddenly, "I knew it! I knew it was those guys who did it!"

"Director Ding, don't be angry, what's going on?" Song Yan advised.

"Luo Zhaoqing is missing, and the prop master Xiao Liu in the crew is also missing. Luo Zhaoqing suddenly called me last night and said that he was outside and found someone following him. I asked him to come to my place and asked Xiao Liu to pick him up. Let's see what happened. It turned out...Xiao Liu never came back and didn't answer the phone. It must be the fault of the people at the school. They just didn't want us to film. Not only did they send people to smash our car, they also The people who kidnapped us are too brave!" Director Ding was furious.

"Director Ding, don't throw dirty water!" A middle-aged woman walked over quickly. She seemed to be a teacher at the school. "Principal Wu said that he had already checked and the results would be available soon. This matter has nothing to do with us. If you want to call the police, please feel free!”

Not long after, the other three actors hurried over. Faced with Song Yan's inquiry, Lu Ji behaved very toughly, "Yes, that's right, I won't let Luo Zhaoqing in. Why is he wandering around in the middle of the night? Director Ding." I’ve already said that the public order in this town is not good, so who is to blame for his disobedience?”

Yang Xiao understood that Lu Ji was also an old player and must have noticed something was wrong, but he couldn't say this in front of Director Ding and the crew.

Several people walked in from the hotel door, led by Principal Wu. Principal Wu had a much better temperament than those teachers. Even if such a thing happened, he still remained calm. He first comforted the crew and then took the He took out an old-fashioned laptop and put it on the table, "Director Ding, I want to make it clear that this matter has nothing to do with us. I asked the hotel to pull up the surveillance video from last night. Take a look."

There are two videos in total. Principal Wu clicked on the first one. The picture was not very clear, but it could be seen that it was in front of a hotel. As the picture played, a limping man appeared in the video. The man left the hotel and turned right. ,

He quickly disappeared from the surveillance screen.

Judging from the silhouette, there is no doubt that this person is the missing Luo Zhaoqing. Yang Xiao noticed that the video was taken at 7:43 at night.

"This is a video provided by Ke Lai Hotel. Your man lives in room 404. He went downstairs alone at 7:40 and came to the front desk to ask about the nearest pharmacy. The front desk replied that you should go out and turn right. Go straight for about 400

meters, you can see it when you turn a corner. "

"Also, his face looked ugly at the time, as if he was enduring great pain. He also wanted to ask the person on duty at the front desk for painkillers, but there was no painkiller at the front desk."

"The person at the front desk saw that something was wrong with him and that one of his legs was injured, and asked him if he needed help, but I don't know why, but he refused."

"For all of the above, someone can prove that I am responsible for every word I say." Principal Wu said seriously.

"This gentleman should be in the same room as the missing one. Did your friend receive a call before he left?" Principal Wu looked at Lu Ji.

"No." Lu Ji replied.

"So he left because of his own pain. He fell during filming during the day. We didn't trick him into leaving.

Is that right? "Principal Wu looked at Director Ding again. He was not aggressive, he was simply reasoning and presenting the facts.

Seeing that Director Ding did not speak, Principal Wu opened the second video. The background of this video was outside the hotel and could be clearly distinguished.

The time was exactly 9 o'clock at night. First, a man hurriedly walked out of the hotel door and waited for 10 seconds in the night breeze.

Minutes later, a limping man walked over from across the street. It was far away, so we could only take a rough shot. After the two met, they spoke a few words. The man who came out of the hotel helped the injured man and left together. , and finally disappeared from surveillance.

There is no doubt that the injured man was Luo Zhaoqing, and the two men disappeared and there is no trace of them until now.

"Director Ding, the videos are here. Take a look. Do they look like they are being coerced? Is anyone following them around here?"

"Where's that car?" A crew member said reluctantly, "Bring up the video of the smashed car and take a look.

"No, there is no monitor at the parking location." Principal Wu answered calmly.

"Impossible! I saw it all, not far from the parking place!"

"That monitor has been broken for a long time, and the hotel has not been repaired." Another teacher who accompanied Principal Wu explained.

"Haha, the surveillance cameras that are beneficial to you will be able to capture them, otherwise the surveillance cameras will be broken. This surveillance camera recognizes people. It's really interesting." Someone from the crew sneered.

At the suggestion of a teacher, Director Ding took the crew and Principal Wu out to check the damaged school bus and the damage to the crew's equipment in the bus. Yang Xiao and the other seven were left behind to continue. Watch surveillance video.

There were a lot of people just now, so I didn’t look carefully, but now there are only 7 of them left, all script players, everyone gathered together,

Watch the video bit by bit.

They did not notice any strange people nearby in the video, and unlike Principal Wu and Director Ding, the veteran players among them knew the horror of this script world. Director Ding suspected that he was missing, but in the eyes of these veteran players,

Luo Zhaoqing and the unlucky member of the crew are most likely dead.

"Disappearance is the most difficult thing to do, leaving a corpse is fine." Lu Ji complained. If they could find the household head, they might be able to find some key clues, such as the ghost's habits, preferences, and killing methods. The surviving pair People matter.

Compared with the first video, the second video is much blurry. The shooting distance was too far, so Luo Zhaoqing only had a rough outline. From the time Luo Zhaoqing appeared to the two of them leaving together, it took no more than 2 minutes. Yang Xiao calculated the conversation between the two. time, less than 20 seconds.

In such a short period of time, they could not exchange much information, so Yang Xiao judged that Luo Zhaoqing most likely asked the crew to buy medicine for him or send him to the hospital.

Staring at the blurry figure moving little by little, Yang Xiao always felt that something was wrong. He moved his face closer to the screen and watched more intently. After a moment, as the figure turned around and walked out of the street, Yang Xiao was stunned. After a while, he discovered something terrible.

"Fuck!"

"What's wrong?" Song Yan was startled by Yang Xiao's sudden move.

"This person is not Luo Zhaoqing!"

"Huh? What do you mean?" Pei Qiuyu also stared at the screen. She didn't find anything strange, but the whole video had a strange smell.

Yang Xiao straightened the screen and opened the first video. In the video, Luo Zhaoqing had a tumor on one of his legs, and Yang Xiao pointed to the tumor leg.

Then he opened the second video. When Luo Zhaoqing turned around and left with the crew member,

Yang Xiao pressed tentatively, and the scene was frozen.

"Look!" Yang Xiao pointed at Luo Zhaoqing's unclear back.

After a moment, several people present could not help but froze for a moment, and then a chill spread uncontrollably from under their feet. In the first video, Luo Zhaoqing injured his right leg, but in the second video, the blurry figure, The tumor is on the left leg.
