Volume 1 Campus Horror Chapter 0007 Join the Investigation
Two days passed quickly. During this period, Xiao Mo stayed in the house. Apart from staring at the mirror in fear every day, he also called Huang Liang to learn about the whole incident from him.
On the phone, he had tried to test Huang Liang many times, but Huang Liang's answer did not have any flaws. Suspicion of Huang Liang was reasonable. Regardless of whether this building was really a haunted building, only two people had come to his home since Xiao Mo moved in. One was naturally himself, and the other was Huang Liang.
Therefore, the only person who could possibly place surveillance cameras in his home, according to common sense, is Huang Liang. Putting this aside for now, Xiao Mo learned that two more people died within two days, namely Quan Xiaodong and Chen Gao!
Whether it was the identity of the deceased or the order of their death, everything was just as what was said in the text message, the content of the text message came true!
Xiao Mo didn't know what kind of mood he was in now, extreme fear? Or some inexplicable joy. If it wasn't a coincidence, then the content of the text message was true, which was almost equivalent to telling him that the "murderer " would not let him go. Sooner or later, he would die tragically on the tall flagpole like those people.
If this is true, then he can only believe the content of the text message, or believe the words of the mysterious man.
Xiao Mo is not a reckless person, on the contrary, he is very thoughtful, so he will not make a hasty decision. He wants to wait and see, he believes that the mysterious person will send him another text message, although he does not know the purpose of the person, but he thinks that he should be of some use to the person.
"Seven people died in seven days. I don't know if the squad leader and his men have found out anything."
Because he did not join the investigation team of Chang Lengfeng and others, Xiao Mo could not ask Huang Liang too many questions. He just asked who the dead person was and what the death was like. After all, he was the one who refused to participate in this matter at the beginning, but now he is asking people questions about it, which is obviously a slap in his own face.
Xiao Mo made a decision at this time. He planned to join Chang Lengfeng's team, at least to know their recent discoveries. After thinking about it, he took out his phone and called Huang Liang:
"Tell the squad leader that I want to investigate this matter with you..."
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Mo changed into clean clothes and walked out.
When he came to the corridor, Xiao Mo couldn't help but think of the rumors about the haunted building. His heart was chilled and his eyes drifted to the next door. In his impression, Aunt Wang and her family lived next door. She was an old lady with a kind face. She would always greet him with a smile every day when she met him, and told him to keep warm.
Could such a kind-hearted person be a ghost? Xiao Mo would never believe it. But there was something strange, because he had never paid the water and electricity bills since he moved in. Even if he had a balance before, it should have been used up after so long.
Thinking of this, Xiao Mo stopped thinking about it, plucked up his courage and came to Aunt Wang's door, then knocked on the rusty door.
“Bang! Squeak…”
Unexpectedly, the door opened slowly after he knocked, and a pungent musty smell hit him in the face.
“Ahem—!”
Stimulated by the smell, Xiao Mo couldn't help coughing again, and his face flushed. A bad premonition enveloped him at this time, because this smell was definitely not what a normal family should have, it could only appear in a dead house that had been uninhabited for many years.
Although he thought of all this, Xiao Mo still walked in without hesitation. He would never believe it unless he saw it with his own eyes.
As soon as he entered, the smell became stronger. The floor, walls, and ceiling were covered with dust and disgusting spider webs. The curtains were tightly drawn, and the whole room looked very gloomy. Walking on the thick dust, he could clearly hear the "puff" sound of his footprints sinking into the dust.
Tables, chairs, electrical appliances and other items were piled messily aside. It was obvious that someone had come in before, perhaps a relative of this family, or perhaps a thief. In any case, all that was left were some junk.
Such a scene made Xiao Mo feel sad, not because he was disappointed with his persistence, but because he felt sorry for the family's experience. Maybe before going to bed, Aunt Wang was still telling her husband to go for morning exercises tomorrow, or maybe her grandson (granddaughter) was still looking forward to what delicious food grandma would make for him tomorrow... But all of this was wiped out by a ruthless disaster.
“Tap tap…”
As Xiao Mo was sighing, he suddenly heard light footsteps behind him. He was startled and looked back, only to find that there was nothing behind him. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he saw that the door that had been left a crack had been closed at some point!
"well!"
A bitter sigh floated into his ears again. Xiao Mo was frightened and pale. He staggered back two steps, but suddenly, he stopped because he... stepped on someone's foot!
"ah--!"
Xiao Mo yelled, and when he turned around, he saw a little boy standing there. He was wearing a school uniform, his face was very purple, and he was holding his neck in pain.
Xiao Mo tried his best to stay calm. He looked at the little boy, and the little boy was also looking at him. They stared at each other for an unknown amount of time until a familiar figure came into his sight. That person was Aunt Wang.
Aunt Wang walked to the little boy and hugged him in her arms. The little boy seemed to enjoy this and the pain on his face was alleviated a lot.
“King, King…”
Xiao Mo tried to call Aunt Wang, but in the end he failed. Aunt Wang turned around, and although her face was also purple, she still had a kind face. She looked at Xiao Mo and said with a smile:
"Don't be afraid, we won't hurt you."
Xiao Mo nodded subconsciously while holding up his weak legs, and then he heard Aunt Wang say:
"You are the only person who can see us in all these years, and the only living person who has lived here in all these years. In fact, we are all very confused. Why did you come here?"
After Aunt Wang finished speaking, Xiao Mo felt that the air around him dropped several degrees in an instant. He looked again and saw that the house was full of people! He was very familiar with those faces, all of whom were residents of this building, but their expressions were uglier than before.
Xiao Mo knew in his heart that these people were ghosts!
Xiao Mo did not answer immediately, and then he heard them all shouting:
"Why are you here!?"
“Why did you come here?!”
"Why……"
When Xiao Mo came out of the corridor, his clothes were soaked with cold sweat, and the bone-chilling coldness still did not dissipate. All this was too horrible. He actually lived with a group of ghosts for a year. Just think about it, every night when he slept, there might be some figures standing by his bed, staring at him coldly.
Thinking of this, Xiao Mo shuddered again and shook his head to stop thinking about it, but he had also made up his mind that he would never come back again. Even if these ghosts would not harm him, he was destined to live in fear.
After leaving the haunted building, Xiao Mo ran all the way. At noon, he arrived at the school classroom.
Including him, there were a total of six people in the classroom, including the monitor Chang Lengfeng, the league secretary Chen Qing, his good friend Huang Liang, and the couple Qin Youru and Zhang Da.
They chatted for a while first, and then got down to business and talked about the incident.
"Xiao Mo, you just joined us. There are some things you don't understand, so I will first tell you about the results of our investigation in recent days."
