Episode 6 Chapter 060 Hide and Seek
I hesitated, but still pressed the answer button. I put the phone close to my ear, but there was no sound on the other end of the line, so I spoke first: "Who are you, and why are you downstairs of my house?"
His voice was exactly the same as the one I had heard on the phone before. He did not answer my question but asked me, "Did you find it?"
It was the same question again. I didn't understand, so I asked him what he had found. I felt that this state was very strange, as if I was talking to a person who didn't exist at all. The person on the other end of the phone said that I had seen him before. I asked who he was, and he said the person in the funeral home, the person called the clown.
I realized then that he was talking about the man I met on duty. As he was talking, I suddenly heard a man crying on the other end of the phone, but I kept looking at him. He was standing there, and there was no one else around him, let alone him crying. I asked what the sound was, but he didn't answer me, and the crying became louder and louder. After a long time, he said that the crying was not coming from the phone, but from my home.
I looked back, but the room behind me was empty, dark and empty. I turned back to look downstairs in confusion, but when I looked again, there was no one downstairs. I looked at the phone again, and I didn't know when it was hung up. So I went to check the call log, but to my surprise, there was no record of the call.
I stood at the window for a long time, thinking about this matter. He suddenly called me and it seemed that he didn't say anything, but it seemed that he gave me some hints. Moreover, he used such a number and used such a method, which made me wonder whether he was deliberately making a mystery or whether it was the kind of thing we were talking about.
Later, I couldn't figure out what was going on, and I felt lost. When I turned off the light, I found a mark on my wrist, like a burn mark, and it was exactly where I was pulled in the dream. I looked at the mark for a long time, and finally went to the bathroom to see if the mark on my back was still there. That mark was still there. Now I have two marks on my body. Does it mean that the things in the house have begun to attack me?
I didn't dare to think about it anymore. At about 11pm, when I thought Shan Lanjin would not come again, he came. He told me that he had too much work to do, so he came at this time and asked me not to be surprised. I asked him how could it be possible, so I invited him in. He didn't sit down, but asked if he could look around the house. I was a little surprised, but I knew that Shan Lanjin must have a reason for visiting so late at night, so I said he was just casual.
So Shan Lanjin looked the whole house carefully again, and finally returned to the living room. He asked me to cooperate with him in an experiment, or you could say an experiment. I asked what experiment it was. Shan Lanjin took out a black cloth and asked me to blindfold my eyes. He stood in a place in the house and made a little sound periodically to give me a hint to see if I could find him.
I was stunned. Isn't this just a game of hide-and-seek? I asked why we were playing this. Shan Ranjin said it was just to confirm some of his ideas. I thought Shan Ranjin was not the kind of person who likes to play, so I said okay. Then Shan Ranjin covered my eyes. Then I heard his footsteps, which seemed to be going somewhere. I counted to ten and then started to look for him.
Shan Ranjin made the knocking sound first, and I felt like he seemed to be hiding behind the sofa, so I walked over there. When I walked over, I heard someone walking quietly on the other side of the sofa. He should be moving, so I followed the footsteps, and then it seemed as if he went around the sofa, and then there was no sound. So I fumbled around for a while, and heard knocking sounds coming from the right side, so I walked over there again. When I walked over, I heard footsteps again, so I followed the footsteps, and this time I went around to the kitchen, and this time the footsteps continued, so I followed them, and then I didn't know where I went, anyway, I seemed to have touched someone, so I said I caught him.
Then I was about to tear off the cloth on my eyes, but at this moment, Shan Lanjin's voice suddenly came from a distance. He said not to tear off the cloth on my eyes, but I had already torn off the cloth while he was speaking. I only saw myself standing at the door of the bathroom, about two or three steps away, but there was no one in front of me. I looked back and saw Shan Lanjin standing behind the living room door, very far away from me.
I panicked for a moment and asked him why he was there. But Shan Ranjin asked me to cover my eyes and try again. I hesitated, but finally covered my eyes and moved to where Shan Ranjin had just stood. But when I walked into the living room, I felt like someone was following me. I could hear faint footsteps and felt something around me. At first I thought it was Shan Ranjin following me, so I tried to grab to the side several times, but I didn't catch anything until I heard knocking on the door of my room.
So I felt my way to the door, and just as I touched the door frame and was about to feel my way in, I suddenly felt a force on my shoulder. I thought it was Shan Lanjin, so I reached out to grab him, but there was nothing behind me. I felt a little strange and was about to take off the black cloth covering my eyes. I felt like Shan Lanjin was playing a trick on me, and I felt a little angry.
I pulled off the black cloth covering my eyes. I looked around, but there was no sign of Shan Rankin. I looked behind the living room door and found that he was still standing there, just looking at me coldly. I don't know why, but I felt inexplicably shocked when I saw the look in his eyes. I asked him if he...
Shan Lanjin agreed, and then he walked into the living room from behind the door. I walked over too, and I asked him what happened just now. I clearly felt that he was teasing me from behind me, but why did he go behind the door again after I tore off the cloth strip? Shan Lanjin looked at me and said, "Do n't I understand yet? From beginning to end, he stood behind the door without moving, let alone touching my shoulder."
I said he didn't move, but I clearly heard the prompts he gave me, his footsteps and other sounds. Shan Ranjin said he didn't give me any prompts, and he didn't move at all, and he also heard the sounds I mentioned. I looked at Shan Ranjin, and it turned out that this was the experiment he was talking about.
Then Shan Rankin asked me to sit back on the sofa, and then he took out his phone to show me, saying that he had recorded it with his phone, and asked me to watch it myself. So I took the phone and watched it bit by bit, and sure enough, the recording angle was always behind the living room door, but because there were only two of us, he was not in the picture from beginning to end. From the moment I came out of the guest bedroom, the direction I walked was strange, because there was no one in the direction I walked.
Including the sofa where I first heard the knocking sound, I just walked around the sofa, then around the sofa to the living room, to the kitchen, and then to the bathroom. I saw in the video that I seemed to touch something in the air, and then I took off the black cloth, and from beginning to end, there was no one at the door of the bathroom. Seeing this, I said, but I clearly touched a person. Shan Rankin said that I did touch a "person", but it was just not a person.
Shan Ranjin has said it so directly. I said that when he played hide-and-seek with me, it was not actually him playing with me, but me playing with the things in the room. Shan Ranjin nodded and said that he just wanted to confirm what he saw and some of his guesses. I asked what guesses he had, and Shan Ranjin said it was about the things in my room.
When I heard Shan Lanjin was going to say this, my nerves tensed up. After Master Nan and Grandma, none of them could tell me the truth. Now Shan Lanjin was suddenly going to tell me the truth, and I was inexplicably excited. Shan Lanjin said that there seemed to be a lot of things occupying my house, but in fact most of them were used to confuse me. In other words, they were all dispensable things, and to put it bluntly, they were controlled by something more powerful than them to cause trouble.
So Shan Lanjin said there were three places in my house that I had never touched during the game of hide-and-seek, namely the coffee table, the back of the living room and my room. The rest were insignificant. I remember Master Nan said there were six places in my house, and then the old lady said there were seven. Now Shan Lanjin was sure there were only these three places, but seeing his tone was very certain, I also unconsciously believed it 80% to 90%.
I said I know what's on the coffee table, it's a middle-aged man who was hanged, and the one behind the living room door is the paper man I brought back from 721 , but I don't know what's in my room, because I feel like I've seen it before, but there seems to be no trace of it. Shan Ranjin said that he had already felt it when he came to my house, which is why he stopped me as soon as I reached the door just now. If I go in, I'm afraid there will be more scary things. If I sleep in there, there will naturally be more abnormal things.
Shan Ranjin told me that he guessed the things occupying these three places were not in the same group, and each had its own purpose. This was why I had been safe all along, because a fight between the three parties would lead to a deadlock, and now I was in such a gap. He said he had a hunch that when the three places had a winner, my life would be in danger, and judging from the current situation, the thing in my room had obviously gained the upper hand.
Shan Ranjin said this while staring at the new mark on my wrist, speaking word by word.
