Chapter 011: Red Ghost (10)
The little hand instantly grew nails four or five centimeters long, piercing the thin and dark man's fragile flesh and going deep into it.
The thin dark man screamed in pain and almost fainted. He pinched the pale hand and tried to pull out his fingers, but to no avail.
“Help!!!” the thin dark man wailed.
Jiang Rui and Zhang Bin were close by, so they immediately rushed over to pull him. With a creak, the cabinet door opened, and a broken neck dripping with black blood stuck out!
It's a ghost baby!
Jiang Rui and Zhang Bin were so frightened that they turned around and ran away, obviously not intending to care about the thin and dark man.
A drop of black blood dripped onto the back of the thin and dark man's hand, making a hissing sound. The thin and dark man's facial features twitched and he screamed heart-wrenchingly, like a ghost from the eighteenth level of hell.
In an instant, the flesh on the back of his hand was corroded away, leaving only pale and gray bones, and blood mixed with pus dripped continuously.
"Please...save me!! Thank you, brother!"
No one would save him. The pain was excruciating. The thin and dark man shouted out the name of the weak newcomer without any hope.
With a loud bang, a foot kicked the cabinet door.
The incident happened so quickly that the ghost baby didn't have time to retract its head, and its broken neck was instantly caught by the cabinet door.
Xie Xinglan pressed hard against the cabinet door, the squeezing force suddenly increased, and the ghost baby's screams made people's periosteum tremble.
Xie Xinglan sneered.
The strength on the ghost baby's hand loosened, and Xie Xinglan seized the opportunity and kicked the thin and dark man away without hesitation.
The thin and dark man's finger was shorn of a small part, and the badly corroded finger fell to the ground with a "click", but his life was saved.
The ghost baby in the closet was completely enraged, venting its resentment: "It's you again! I'm going to kill you!!"
The cabinet was on the verge of exploding, but Xie Xinglan suddenly did the opposite and opened the cabinet door with a look of fearlessness on his face.
Without any obstruction, the ghost baby's hand quickly stretched out, and it was about to crush Xie Xinglan's neck. Yan Jing's heartbeat suddenly stopped, and he shouted in despair: "Brother Xie!!"
Xie Xinglan didn't move an inch, he sneered and said coldly: "If you want your mother to see the light of day again, get out of here."
The hand stopped just inches away from his fragile neck, trembled twice with unwillingness, and finally retracted.
The ghost baby disappeared and the crisis receded.
Jiang Rui turned pale and tears streamed down her face. Zhang Bin's legs went weak and he fell to the ground.
Yan Jing relaxed suddenly and collapsed on the sofa: "Brother Xie, you scared me to death!"
He suddenly realized something and swallowed his saliva: "Aren't you a weakling in battle...?"
The one who can make the ghost baby lose face, Xie Chi...
"It doesn't require much technical skills." Xie Xinglan replied perfunctorily.
Xie Xinglan just didn’t want the ghost baby to be proud, and he wasn’t very interested in saving people, it was just a coincidence.
The thin, dark man's screams were horrifying. The pain was unbearable. He covered his left hand with all his might and rolled on the ground in pain.
Xie Xinglan frowned slightly and walked over to take a look. The corrosion area on the thin and dark man's hand was still expanding. If it was a little later, the whole man would probably turn into a pool of blood.
Xie Xinglan picked up a fruit knife from the table at the side, and used her beautiful slender fingers to push away the knife that was shining silver.
He took out a lighter and slowly and carefully disinfected the tip of the blade, as if he had an innate affinity for this cold and dangerous thing.
"Do you want your hand or your life?" Xie Xinglan squatted down after doing everything, his tone of inquiry was calm, and his expression was a bit lazy and impatient.
The dark-skinned man collapsed and screamed: "I'm dying!!"
If the corrosion continues, it will not be as simple as just losing one hand!
Jiang Rui and Zhang Bin watched in horror as the sharp tip of the knife cut through the skinny dark man's flesh bit by bit, preserving the good parts and cutting away the corroded parts. The whole process was as delicate and perfect as art.
——If what he was cutting was not human flesh.
The man wielding the knife had a stern look and an indifferent expression, as if nothing could cause him the slightest bit of trouble.
As Jiang Rui and Zhang Bin watched, a chill gradually rose in their hearts.
How stupid were they to think that the man in front of them was gentle and good-tempered and could be used. They had actually been planning to take advantage of Xie Chi before.
When the two of them thought about the thoughts they had before, their legs went weak, as if they had already become a pile of dead meat under Xie Chi's knife.
This person was able to complete half of the main storyline on the second day alone. It was not based on luck, but on real terrifying strength.
The audience outside the horror movie was silent for a while:
[This person is simply... ice and fire. ]
[The contrast is so great that my scalp is tingling. ]
[He has so many faces, which one is the real one? Oh my god. ]
[Not only is his IQ crushing, but he can also fight. He put his head on the cabinet. When has the ghost baby ever suffered such humiliation? 】
[It feels more...perverted, but I like it! ]
[From the way he does it, I can tell that he is either a doctor or... Never mind, I won't say more. It's really scary when I think about it.]
【I followed the real name Mu Qiang. 】
…
The condition of the thin and dark man was not optimistic. Fortunately, when Xie Chi went out to purchase on the first day, he took into account possible injuries and equipped a medicine box with bandages and medicines.
Jiang Rui and Zhang Bin took great pains to stabilize the thin and dark man's condition, and he would definitely be able to hold on until the end of get off work and be sent to the hospital.
The next morning, when Xie Chi regained control of his body, he found himself sleeping on the sofa in a comfortable position, covered with a thin blanket, and his hands smelled strongly of disinfectant.
His head felt slightly dizzy and his lymph nodes ached a little. Xie Chi reached out and touched his forehead , and felt that it was a little hot.
I seem to have a low-grade fever.
Xie Chi was stunned for two seconds, and thought to himself, As expected - the disease was brought to him by the horror movie.
He doesn’t get sick spontaneously.
Seeing that he had woken up, Jiang Rui's eyes were filled with fear and respect: "Brother Xie, are you thirsty? I...I'll go get you some water."
Xie Chi noticed that her hands were shaking slightly, and his eyes narrowed.
Jiang Rui is afraid of him?
"No need." Xie Chi slowly straightened the wrinkles on his shirt, "Where are they?"
Jiang Rui said dryly: "Yan Jing went to buy breakfast, and Zhang Bin took a taxi downstairs to accompany Zheng Ming to the hospital... "
Zheng Ming is the name of the thin and dark boy.
Go to the hospital? Zheng Ming was probably injured last night.
Xie Chi was surprised by Jiang Rui's attitude, but he didn't ask much. It was obvious that his brother had done something horrific last night, and Xie Chi was used to it.
"How is Zheng Ming?" Xie Chi asked casually.
Jiang Rui smiled bitterly: "His left hand is completely broken, and he can only hope to live until the end of the filming to recover. Thanks to you, he can have hope to survive."
All injuries sustained by actors in horror films are “role-related” injuries, so once filming is over and the actors are out of character, they are naturally safe and sound.
Regenerating a broken hand is a trivial matter for APP.
Xie Chi nodded slightly, and got a rough idea of what happened last night from this sentence.
"You just said you were going to the hospital?" Xie Chi straightened his clothes and stood up, thinking, "I'll go too."
…
Arriving at the hospital, Xie Chi first paid for a routine blood test.
While waiting for the results, Yan Jing sat on a chair outside the examination room and handed the steamed buns he bought to Xie Chi: "Brother, are you feeling unwell?"
Xie Chi took it and had no appetite: "I have a slight fever."
"Did you not sleep well?" Yan Jing felt that his question was a bit against his will. In the horror movie, the person who slept the most recklessly was Xie Chi.
Xie Chi just smiled and said nothing.
"Number 47!" The doctor in the examination room behind him called him.
Yan Jing accompanied Xie Chi in. The female doctor pointed to several values on the test report, her face a little solemn: "Your platelets and red blood cells have decreased, and your white blood cells have increased..."
Xie Chi thought to himself, as expected, and listened with a smile.
The female doctor originally felt a little regretful and worried when she saw that the man was handsome, gentle and young, but then she saw how calm he was and couldn't help but wonder, do people nowadays take their lives so lightly?
The female doctor said politely: "You may need to stay for a while and do a bone marrow puncture to see the specific situation."
Yan Jing didn't understand what those numbers meant at first, but when he heard about bone marrow puncture, he was so shocked that he dropped the steamed buns in his hand.
"No need." Xie Chi got the answer he wanted, nodded slightly to the female doctor, and walked out of the clinic with Yan Jing.
"Come back!" The female doctor stood up quickly and called him from behind, "The problem is really serious! It could be leukemia! Don't take it lightly... Hey!"
Xie Chi thanked her for her kindness and waved at her helplessly.
The female doctor stamped her feet behind her back and said, "What kind of person is this! If you don't see a doctor when you are sick, you are really not afraid of death!"
【What did I say before?】
[He was so perceptive that he went to the hospital for a checkup. Fortunately, he was careful.]
[Is this the key information? ]
[I am a little curious about what happened to that Gu. ]
Yan Jing couldn't even enjoy his steamed buns anymore. He lowered his eyes and asked cautiously, "Brother, are you sick in the real world and you came here hoping to be cured?"
"No." Xie Chi touched his head and whispered, "I'm 100% sure it's because of the horror movie."
"What the hell!" Yan Jing was shocked. "He's been seriously ill for only two days. How is it possible that—"
Yan Jing realized something and suddenly looked down at his index finger.
The next second, his expression was extremely ugly: "Because of Gu?? This thing is so insidious?? It can also make people sick?"
Xie Chi said "hmm" softly.
Yan Jing suddenly panicked: "Brother Xie, you were bitten by a Gu, then we have all been bitten before... Should I also do a blood test?"
Xie Chi: "Okay."
While waiting for Yan Jing to come up with the results, Xie Chi went to get some medicine to relieve the symptoms. The longest duration of a horror movie is seven days. Now two days have passed, and he only needs to endure five more days at most.
It seems that he needs to speed up the process. He needs to find out the details of what happened eighteen years ago.
It is certain that the female boss killed the female ghost, but her motive for doing so still needs to be explored and considered.
Asking the victims among the parties involved will not reveal the full story...
Xie Chi chuckled. He could only face the challenge and "ask" the murderous female boss. He couldn't attack her, but he had other ways.
Yan Jing came out quickly and walked up to Xie Chi with a bewildered look on his face: "Brother Xie, my blood test is normal, except that my platelets are a little high. The doctor said I have anemia."
Xie Chi remained silent.
The side effect of being bitten by the Gu was that he became sick. The negative effects of the Gu on Yan Jing and the others had not yet appeared, but Xie Chi was sure that they must have, after all, they had all been bitten by the Gu.
It’s just that the effect is currently different from his.
…
At five o'clock in the afternoon, the female boss came to the company for routine inspection. At six o'clock, she entered the underground garage. Three minutes later, her luxury car drove out of the underground garage.
The driver was driving and the female boss was sitting in the passenger seat.
Yan Jing and Xie Chi were currently sitting in an inconspicuous green taxi.
Xie Chi watched the female boss's car slowly merge into the traffic flow: "Master, please help me follow the car in front, the one with license plate number XXXXX."
The driver stared at the two people in the rearview mirror suspiciously and shook his head repeatedly: "I don't do this kind of business! You guys get off quickly..."
Xie Chi hurriedly said: "Master, to be honest, my buddy's girlfriend was in that car. My buddy just received a message from his girlfriend saying that she had to work overtime, but when he turned around, he saw her getting into that man's luxury car..."
Xie Chi stopped talking at that, looking extremely embarrassed. The driver suddenly had an idea and glanced sympathetically at Yan Jing, who was standing next to Xie Chi and looked at him. He thought to himself, "So he is going to catch someone cheating in bed."
Yan Jing clenched his fists at the right time, his face full of indignation, and thought to himself that he was miserable to have to deal with such a role.
The driver immediately relaxed his guard: "Okay, but I will follow you outside and not go in..."
Xie Chi said without hesitation: "No problem."
[I feel like I’m going to do something showy again, hahahahaha. ]
[What is he trying to do? Even if he follows the female boss to her home, what can he do? Can he still get in? ]
[Want to steal information? How can it be that easy? How could there be no security guards at the female boss's residence? He couldn't even get through the main door, let alone into someone else's house.]
[Don’t set a flag too early. You can’t think of this person in the same way as a normal person.]
[No, we are in a modern society after all. Do you really think you can sneak into someone's house without being noticed, take what you want, and then walk out without being discovered?]
The taxi finally stopped at the gate of an upscale residential area.
"The price here is over 100,000 yuan per square meter." The driver muttered, feeling more and more sympathetic towards the short guy next to the handsome young man.
It seems that the dwarf’s girlfriend has really hooked up with a rich man.
The female boss got out of the front, and the driver saw her big belly. He was stunned for a moment, but couldn't help blurting out: "Little brother, you are too miserable. This child is probably not yours."
The veins on Yan Jing's forehead jumped twice: "..."
Xie Chi patted him on the shoulder and said that he would remember Yan Jing's sacrifice.
The two got out of the taxi. Xie Chi pulled Yan Jing aside and whispered, "You can play around now. Turn up the volume on your phone and wait for my call. When you get the call, call a taxi immediately and we'll rush back to work."
Yan Jing listened carefully and was inexplicably excited: "Okay."
Xie Chi took out a small mirror from his pocket and began to tidy up his appearance.
[Why do I feel that this routine is somewhat familiar? 】
【Hahahahahaha, I think I guessed it. 】
Yan Jing couldn't help but ask, "Brother Xie, can you really get in? This neighborhood looks very well-secured, with cameras everywhere, and you don't even have an access card..."
Xie Chi said: "Let's try it."
After Yan Jing walked away, Xie Chi went to a nearby flower shop, bought a bunch of roses, and then walked back to the gate of the community.
A few young girls who were out for a walk in the evening caught a glimpse of the well-dressed, suave man and couldn't help whispering, "Is he here to meet his girlfriend? How romantic! He even brought flowers!"
"Single dogs have eaten a mouthful of dog food."
"So handsome! Such long legs!"
"Hey? He's coming towards us! Tell me, is he someone's boyfriend?"
"not me!"
Xie Chi stepped forward a little embarrassedly: "Hello, I just got off work and wanted to give my girlfriend a surprise, but when I got there I found that I couldn't get in, so can I..."
Xie Chi glanced awkwardly in the direction of the security room. The bunch of roses in his hand were gorgeous and expensive.
The girls were very forthcoming: “We’ll take you in!”
"Thank you for the trouble." Xie Chi thanked him very gentlemanly, looking at the specific building with a faint smile on his face, as if he had fallen in love.
"Where does your girlfriend live?" One of them realized it and joked with a smile.
Xie Chi nodded with a smile.
"She is so happy!"
A few people chatted and laughed as they arrived at the card swiping counter. The property manager saw a stranger and walked up to him and asked, "Who is this..."
One of the girls rolled her eyes and said, "She's my friend."
The property management immediately nodded and let us go.
Xie Chi entered the community smoothly and said with a smile: "Thank you."
"It's just a piece of cake. Have a nice date!" The pretty girls winked at him.
Xie Chi nodded slightly, smiling warmly.
After they left, the smile on Xie Chi's face suddenly disappeared, and he glanced expressionlessly at the building where the female boss entered.
The next step is to sneak into her house.
