Chapter 28 Curse
Liang Xi glanced at Bobby, walked back down the stairs, walked to the living room on the first floor, leaned over and touched the wooden floor, and felt liquid. Liang Xi tested it with his fingers, and then smelled it: it was water. How could there be water?
Liang Xi looked sideways and saw traces of water on the floor, with puddles of water flowing into the room. Liang Xi checked the two doors again, but still found no signs of them being opened.
Bobby walked down the stairs slowly, reached out and touched the water on the floor, thinking: "It's obvious that you have become its target. If you really beg me, I can save your life."
"Playing tricks." Liang Xi followed the water stains and entered the last room. He saw the back of a There were red words on the back: Don't look in the mirror in the middle of the night.
Liang Xi looked at the red words on the back of the mirror and slowly reached out his hand. Bobby dissuaded him, "This is a curse. I advise you not to touch it." Then he left the door of the room and walked towards the stairs step by step. When he climbed the wooden stairs to go back to the second floor, Liang Xi screamed in the room, and then there was the sound of him falling to the ground.
Poppy sighed, "I told you not to touch it."
Bobby returned to the second floor hall and sat quietly. Ten minutes passed, and there was a slight sound of a door closing. Bobby still sat quietly, listening to the footsteps going up the stairs. The footsteps stopped at the last few steps.
I don't know how long it was before Bobby said, "Ali, I know it's you."
A man in a raincoat walked up the stairs and stood at the top with a wrench in his hand.
Bobby sighed, "It's fake again, fake again." He felt very sorry.
The man in the raincoat took off the faceless male mask and the raincoat hat, and it turned out to be the real estate agent, Ali. Ali asked, "Where's Shirley?"
Bobby pointed to the corridor: "He ate my gossip, lying over there."
Ali glanced at the corridor, where a dog was lying motionless at the end. "Did you kill it?"
Bobby disdains to answer Ali's question and said, "I knew it was you from the beginning because you lied to me. You didn't want to sell the house, you wanted to buy it. You used your dog and wrench to scare away and knock out many people. Without exception, these people believed that the house was haunted. Oh, and there is also the metal mirror you plugged into the socket."
Ali asked, "How did you know?"
Bobby answered proudly but elegantly, "Because I called Lily and she told me you wanted to buy her house. I happened to know you had a dog and what the dog liked to eat. You used the gaps in the windows to play ghost tricks outside and trained your dog to cooperate with you. Right? Ali, who is known as the champion of haunted house sales in the industry. You have been using hauntings to buy houses at low prices, and then hired psychics to exorcise the ghosts and then sell the houses. The psychic earned fame and you earned money."
Ali: "You know too much." Walks towards Bobby.
"I know so much, how could I not know that you would use force?" Bobby reached into his pocket and took out an air conditioner remote control: "I'll give you a chance to surrender to the police... What?"
Ali approached Bobby with a grim smile. Bobby touched his body and asked, "Where is my emergency call button?"
Ali: "Go to hell, kid."
"Wait, am I afraid of you?" Bobby stood up and faced Ali in a fighting stance. Suddenly, he pushed the window next to him and shouted outside, "Help, help."
Ali was very anxious and rushed forward to wrench Bobby, who dodged to the side. Ali kicked Bobby on the leg and Bobby fell to the ground. Ali raised the wrench and said, "You smart kid, did you happen to know that I used to be a fighter?"
"No." Bobby held his head.
There was a bang. Bobby waited for a moment and looked up. He saw Ali turning his head to look at Liang Xi behind him. Liang Xi held a metal mirror-like object in his hand and hit Ali's head hard again. Ali looked at Liang Xi for a few seconds and then collapsed to the ground, motionless.
Bobby stood up unhappily: "I'm about to subdue him, why are you joining in the fun?"
Liang Xi raised the metal in his hand, and Bobby immediately changed the subject alertly: "You weren't electrocuted?"
Liang Xi looked at Bobby with disdain. Bobby felt his self-esteem was shot through. Liang Xi said, "Although I don't understand why there are water stains and why there is an extra mirror, I know there is a socket on the back of the mirror."
Bobby held out his left hand. "OK, we worked together to catch the criminal, the culprit of the haunted house. Come on, give me a high five."
Liang Xi pulled out the cable tie handcuffs and took out his phone: "He is a criminal, but he is not the culprit."
Bobby was stunned, "No, he is. He uses the haunting to buy properties at low prices and then sells them."
Liang Xi said, "He is not. You can ask him yourself. Hello, I am Liang Xi from the Rose Detective Agency. I have arrested a criminal suspect. I would be very grateful if you could send a detective over... The location is... OK, see you later."
When he called, Bobby had already woken up Ali and asked, "Why are you pretending to be a ghost and scaring people?"
Ali found his hands were handcuffed: "Don't you already know?"
Bobby looked at Liang Xi: Look.
Liang Xi: "You didn't ask the right question. Yali, why did you scare Lily?"
Ali was a little anxious. "No, I didn't scare Lily, don't accuse me. It was only when Lily found me that I knew there was an intruder. I wanted to buy the house, but Lily didn't want to sell it, and she even posted a request for help on a reward website. Many people have confirmed to Lily through me that it is haunted. As long as I scare you away, I can get the house at the lowest price."
Bobby encouraged: "Don't be afraid of his threats. Bravely admitting your guilt is your only way out."
Yali was unconvinced: "I admitted that I attacked you, why didn't I admit that I scared Lily?"
Bobby: "Because you're afraid of aggravated charges."
Liang Xi said fair words: "Didn't you notice that there were surveillance cameras? How did Yali sneak into Lily's room?"
Bobby thought for a moment: "Dog."
Liang Xi: "No, it's a pig, you are a pig. Even if a dog is trained like a human, it can't escape surveillance." Liang Xi already knew the truth of the case, but he didn't expect Ali to play tricks, which really scared him. It wasn't until he saw the mirror that Liang Xi was completely sure that someone was playing tricks. However, Liang Xi didn't have the information that Bobby had, and he didn't deduce Ali. So Liang Xi pretended to be knocked unconscious by electric shock and waited for the follow-up development.
Bobby was unwilling to accept the result: "You mean Lily is mentally ill? Otherwise, with so many cameras, the intruder would have been discovered. But you definitely don't know that I have asked a professional psychologist to evaluate Lily's mental state. He believes that Lily is mentally fine. He also conducted a comprehensive physical examination on Lily and found no physical cause for the hallucinations."
