Chapter 071 1552 Haunted House (03)
[Did I hear that correctly? Climb over? Eavesdrop?]
【Hahahahahahahaha, talking about stealing.】
【Use every possible means, Chi. 】
"Brother." Xie Chi had discussed it with Lu Wen, and only spoke after seeing Lu Wen go to the next door to chat with Ren Ze.
"Did you remember me after the discussion?"
Xie Chi just smiled, not feeling at all that he was being unkind by acting first and reporting later.
Although Xie Xinglan was joking, he climbed out of the window directly. He put his hands on the window sill, and his body was suspended in the air, moving slowly towards Ren Ze's room. When he reached the edge of the window sill, there was no more room to move. Xie Xinglan estimated the distance from here to there, and frowned: "It's a bit far."
"No way? Then let's go back." Xie Chi didn't have to eavesdrop, he also didn't want Xie Xinglan to get into an accident, it would be a waste of time.
Xie Xinglan didn't say anything. He thought for a few seconds, then freed one hand and took out his cell phone from his pants. He supported his whole body with one hand. Veins bulged on his arm and he seemed to be shaky, but his expression was nonchalant.
Xie Xinglan reached for his phone, swiped the screen, and took out the Evil Spirit Blade from his backpack.
He put his phone back, swayed his body lightly, and inserted the Evil Blade deeply into the wall. Then he stepped on the Evil Blade, jumped, and accurately grasped the window sill of Ren Ze's room. He leaned over and pulled out the Evil Blade embedded in the wall and took it back.
Lu Wen, who was facing the window in the room, saw Xie Chi by the window at a glance and was suddenly startled.
Ren Ze felt a dark shadow passing by the window behind him and was about to turn around.
"Don't--" Lu Wen had no time to stop him and his eyes widened nervously.
Ren Ze looked back suspiciously, but saw nothing.
Lu Wen breathed a sigh of relief and pretended nothing had happened: "What's wrong?"
Ren Ze frowned and said, "I think something just passed by the window."
"Ah?" Lu Wen pretended to be confused. "Why didn't I see it? Maybe it's a bat or a bird. I'll go take a look."
He was close to the window, and reached the windowsill before Ren Ze. He pretended to open the window, and stuck his head out, and saw "Xie Chi" hiding under the windowsill. "Xie Chi"'s feet were hanging in the air, and he was afraid that "Xie Chi" would fall, and his heart was beating fast with fear.
"Is there anything?" Ren Ze saw him freeze and was about to come over suspiciously.
Xie Xinglan raised his head and winked at him.
Lu Wen thought quickly: "No one saw it outside? Could it have flown into the curtains?"
He pulled up the curtains and pretended to look for it.
"What are you doing?" Ren Ze felt something was wrong, so he pulled open the curtains and looked down, but there was nothing.
Ren Ze was confused, and Lu Wen had an expression that said, "I know nothing."
Ren Ze thought to himself that he might be too suspicious and didn't think much about it.
[It’s on top, Zeze, on top of the window! ]
【There are ghosts only if there are windows and eaves that can be seen. 】
[I climbed up in a flash. ]
[Is this guy a rock climbing champion?]
[The new century Spider-Man, flying over eaves and walls, relying on hardcore eavesdropping. 】
Xie Xinglan, who was squatting on top of the window, clicked his tongue and said, "His acting is really bad."
Xie Chi: "Agree."
Xie Xinglan waited until there was no movement inside, and then he followed the same method, and finally successfully reached the top of the window sill where You Jing and the other two were.
[Is this dagger his prop?! So cool! It suits him very well.]
[I finally saw Xie Chi's props. ]
There were indeed deliberately suppressed voices in the room. Xie Chi's body had been transformed by the Heavenly Dao, and his hearing was extraordinary, so he could barely hear what they were saying.
"How is it?" You Jing's voice sounded a little impatient.
"There is a woman...a woman crying." Zhao Jinhua's voice sounded very weak and a little incoherent. "The lady was crying, falling to the ground, begging for mercy, terrified. Yes, there was fear in her eyes!"
"Terrified?" You Jing was shocked and asked quickly, "What did she see? What did she see that made her terrified?"
Zhao Jinhua seemed a little confused: "Move, move back, black shadow, there is a black shadow approaching in front of us...ah!"
"Mom, are you okay?!" You Jing asked with concern.
"I'm fine." Zhao Jinhua seemed to have recovered from her psychic state. She rested for a while before speaking again, "That woman must be the ghost in the haunted house, and the black shadow is probably the person who killed her before she died."
"Auntie, did you see what that person looked like?" The person asking the question should be You Jing's girlfriend.
Zhao Jinhua was silent for a while, probably trying to recall, and suddenly raised his voice: "It's a man!"
"Mom, how did you know?" You Jing asked.
"Shadow, I didn't see the shape, but the black shadow was wearing leather shoes. That's the shadow of men's leather shoes."
You Jing said, "So there is a man who wants to kill the lady, and the lady is very scared and desperately begs for mercy. She watches him approaching little by little, and she moves back helplessly? Is that the scene?"
"That's right." Zhao Jinhua added, "That lady is quite pretty and young. It was her that I sensed through my telepathy, so she is a ghost. She must be the ghost in the haunted house."
"Auntie, it's really great to follow you." You Jing's girlfriend flattered happily.
Zhao Jinhua smiled, seeming a little proud, and raised his voice slightly: "For now, we can only know these. As the clues gradually increase, we will have something to rely on when communicating with the spirits, and we will get more information. We can even talk to the ghosts directly and know the truth directly. The main plot of this film may be to help the noblewoman ghost get rid of her. Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that the black shadow is a male ghost, and he still persecutes female ghosts after his death. We have to help female ghosts defeat male evil ghosts."
“It’s a great ability to have this.”
"Don't be envious. You have just been here for a short time. You will have everything if you stay here for a long time. I am just an experienced person." Zhao Jinhua said.
The three of them talked for a few more words, and Zhao Jinhua said, "I'm not feeling well and need to take a rest. You guys go around and collect clues. I'll come out later when it's time for dinner."
You Jing agreed.
Xie Chi thought that it was better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early. He secretly wrote down the words of the three people and said, "Brother, let's go back."
It won’t be too late for him to think about the content of the words when he gets back.
Xie Xinglan: "Okay."
Just as they were about to go back, a conversation was heard again in the room which had originally been quiet.
"Mom, Xie Chi, what are you going to do?" You Jing asked cautiously.
Xie Xinglan paused.
When this name was mentioned, Zhao Jinhua said coldly: "Let's explore the plot and uncover the truth first, and put the rest aside for now."
"Mom..." You Jing seemed a little indignant.
Zhao Jinhua sneered, "He knows I'm coming, so he definitely won't dare to show up in front of me. I'll let him live for two more days, and wait until the potential crisis is resolved. We can deal with him then. No matter how much potential he has, he's just a rookie. How many levels have he just passed? He doesn't even seem to have any props, and his hair hasn't even grown yet. He knew I was coming, but he still dared to run into this level. He's really brave. Don't blame me if he gets himself killed."
You Jing laughed, probably feeling very proud.
[Ahem, ahem, ahem, "Don't dare to show up in front of me"...]
[Awkward, hahahahahaha, did you know that they are only separated from you by a wall? ]
[The most embarrassing scene of the year. ]
[Hahahahaha, I, Chi Zai, was touched, but she didn’t know it was happening right under her nose.]
You Jing: "Didn't the movie king give him props?"
Zhao Jinhua said: "Shen Yi gave him the props, but whether he was tamed or not is another matter. Even if he was tamed, so what? It's just a prop with only a few flaws. How powerful can it be? At present, he only has a lucky bonus. What's the use?"
You Jing: "What about the last zombie movie? He seemed to have got the props, but they were hidden in the final selection..."
"I've already said that the flaws are not enough to overshadow the merits. The strength of the props is limited, and most zombie movies produce props that are exclusive to zombie movies. He might not be able to bring them in at all." Zhao Jinhua 's tone was already very impatient. "Useless thing, why do you care about him so much? Are you afraid of him?"
You Jing immediately denied: "No!"
…
Xie Chi's face was gloomy. Zhao Jinhua knew everything about him. Indeed, for Zhao Jinhua, the points spent on watching the movies he had made were just a drop in the bucket. For him, watching movies made by others was extremely expensive. To put it bluntly, he was poor, and poverty caused information asymmetry. He didn't have enough points to know other people's information.
"Shall we go back?" Xie Xinglan asked.
Xie Chi agreed and said, "Brother, if Zhao Jinhua wants to harm me, how will she achieve her goal?"
Xie Xinglan frowned and said, "I remember the APP said that actors can't kill actors?"
"Yes." Xie Chi pondered for a few seconds, "In fact, if she can talk to ghosts, she is a bit like a psychic, a psychic..."
Xie Xinglan's heart sank: "Xiao Chi, is it possible that she can reach a consensus with the ghost and let the ghost kill us?"
Xie Chi also thought of this, and he had some concerns: "I'm not sure, but we have to be prepared, she is indeed quite capable."
Xie Chi decided to come after considering several aspects. The first was the protection of actors not being able to kill each other, and the second was the measurement of the actors' specialization.
To some extent, if they want to attack him, they can only use some special means. Once they need to make a detour, he has a lot of room for mediation and reversal. The second is specialization. You Jing and Zhao Jinhua are both ghost movie experts. The characteristics of actors who specialize in ghost movies are very obvious. Their own martial arts value is average, and they have more props. To put it bluntly, those who specialize in action horror movies are warriors, and most of the things they get are things that directly improve martial arts, such as Lu Wen's sword, Yan Jing's zombie blood, and Zhou Tong's blood burning buff. Those who specialize in ghost movies are probably mages, and they get more abilities and props, which are equivalent to magic wands. It's like Zhao Jinhua can communicate with spirits. This is an ability, but it has no actual lethality. She needs to make a detour and use ghosts to attack him. Although she is strong, she is not simple and crude enough.
Of course, Zhao Jinhua has reached this point, so his fighting ability must be strong.
However, the fact that his opponent is strong is not a reason for him to retreat, he has no choice but to retreat.
…
Two minutes later, Lu Wen in the room successfully received "Xie Chi" who climbed in through the window.
"How is it?" Lu Wen closed the window, pulled the curtains, and asked in a low voice.
With Xie Chi's demonstration, Lu Wen became a little nervous. He was especially afraid that someone would follow Xie Chi's example and eavesdrop on their conversation.
Xie Chi briefly explained to Lu Wen what he had heard.
Lu Wen seemed to be thinking: "Then I think our current findings are actually similar to what she sensed through telepathy?"
Xie Chi sat down and poured himself a glass of water: "Yes, I think so too. We found a bloody tooth."
Lu Wen said, "Yes, you also said that the owner of the teeth should be a young woman who pays great attention to the maintenance of her teeth. I feel that it belongs to the noble lady that Zhao Jinhua telepathically sensed!"
Xie Chi remained silent, seemingly thinking about something.
Lu Wen said, "It could be like this - the man abused the woman when she was alive, pulled out her teeth, and hid them here."
Xie Chi thought for a while: "Do you think Zhao Jinhua's two guesses about the main plot are correct? One is that we help the female ghost who was tortured to death to be liberated and saved, and the other is to help the female ghost defeat the evil male ghost?"
Lu Wen: "I think it's pretty close."
Xie Chi frowned: "I have a question, a very obvious question."
"What?" Lu Wen looked at him.
Xie Chi tapped the table with his index finger: "Why hide the teeth? Who hides the teeth?"
