Volume 4: Return of the Dead Chapter 0092 News
The two bodies were still covered with white cloth, so Chen Shu had no idea whether the bodies had their eyes open or closed. Of course, he would not sit idle and tear off the white cloth to watch the miserable appearance of the two in the dark night.
I don't know when the window was blown open by the wind, and the cold wind from outside blew in, making the window rustle.
"It's a waste of resources if we don't use this place to make a ghost movie."
Looking at the shaking window, Chen Shu couldn't help but mutter, but even so, he didn't get up to close the window.
When he was a child, he heard from the elders that the morgue was the most yin place in the world, and ventilated windows were the only way to let in yang energy, especially late at night, which was the time of the day when the yin energy was the most concentrated. The yang energy must not be blocked, otherwise the corpse would be resurrected.
He dared to come here to see the corpses and sleep alone in the morgue, so he naturally did not believe in this set of superstitious rhetoric. But he had to say that opening the windows at night did make him feel a lot more relaxed, and most importantly, it could reduce the smell of formalin.
Looking away, he found that the computer had been turned on, and the screen was emitting a faint cold light, which was a bit dazzling . He habitually logged into QQ, and there were only a few friends on it. Every time he saw them on such a night, he would inexplicably feel sad and sigh.
Just like a song goes, the older you get, the lonelier you feel, and the more uneasy you feel.
As I grow older and gain more experience, I have learned to cherish things after getting over my youth, but I suddenly realize that the friends who used to be by my side and grew up with me have disappeared.
With a bitter face, he minimized QQ and clicked on the web page to enter a news website.
Browsing the news, or more precisely, browsing the comments behind the news, can be said to be one of his daily pleasures.
Because behind every piece of hot news, there will always be some idiots that ordinary people cannot understand. They always say things that are contrary to reality, and use their sharp and vicious mouths to attack and abuse every normal human being.
However, there is also a group of "righteous troops" who are not afraid of their viciousness. Every time the two sides meet, an extremely brutal fight will begin. Everyone swears solemnly and has reasons and arguments, and they all want to use their rich experience to defeat the elementary school students on the opposite side, but in fact... all the bystanders are laughing and saying nothing.
I don't know when the Internet started to transform into a battlefield filled with the smoke of gunpowder. From national affairs to trivial matters, as long as something is made public, it will attract countless arguments. In the end, all it gets in return is the laughter resounding from behind the screen.
If you want the country to solve social problems, it is not enough to just curse it online.
After quickly browsing through a few news comments, he felt much more relaxed. Having achieved his goal, he wanted to close the webpage, but just as he was about to close it, an inconspicuous scrolling news bar at the top of the page attracted him.
"There have been two suspected suicides in Yuanbin City over the past two days."
"Yuanbin City? Isn't that right here?"
Out of curiosity, he clicked on the news. It was mainly about a local IT company where two employees were suspected of committing suicide, one of whom was a senior executive of the company and the other was an ordinary employee.
He just glanced over the content of the news. What really attracted him were the two photos posted there. The woman had an outstanding temperament and was full of confidence, while the man was sunny, handsome and full of energy.
These two people...look so familiar.
The moment he saw the two photos, he felt that he must have seen these two people somewhere, because the feeling of familiarity was very strong. If they had just met once, he would not have had such a strong reaction in his heart.
But where have I seen it before?
While thinking hard, he read the news again. This time, because he read it carefully, he saw the following sentence at the bottom of the news:
"We are also looking for Wu Qi's childhood friends from Qingfeng County. Their names are no longer known, but we know what they called each other when they were young. They are Dashu, Ajun, Xiaoshuang, Lei, Wuqi, and Gouzi. If you see this news, please send us a private message so that we can contact each other."
Seeing this line of small words, Chen Shu couldn't help but repeat it again:
"Wu Qi, Wu Qi?"
He suddenly remembered, and finally knew where the familiar feeling came from. Aren't these two his childhood friends? Although they haven't seen each other for many years, their appearance has changed more or less, but their childhood outlines are still there. In addition, the news said that they were from Qingfeng County, which further confirmed this point.
"If this one is a life sentence, then the other one should be Xiao Shuang. She is still so beautiful. It's just that..."
After sighing, the excitement on Chen Shu's face gradually disappeared. He had nothing to be happy about. This was not a long-awaited reunion, but recognizing the bodies of his friends. To put it bluntly, he was going to collect their bodies!
"Why are you so depressed? No matter how difficult life is, you can't commit suicide!"
His fist slammed down hard on the wooden cabinet, and his mood, which had just improved a little, suddenly became worse. But after all, they hadn't contacted each other for a long time, so his emotions didn't fluctuate too much, but his heart was heavy and a little sour.
He was a sentimental person, and even after so many years, he had never forgotten them. After he became an adult, he still tried to find their traces, but their home in Qingfeng County had been moved and demolished, and there were no familiar people left there, so he had never been able to contact them.
"Forget it. As friends, there's nothing I can do to help you. I'll just see you off at the end."
Chen Shu decided to send a private message to the editor of this news. He didn't want Wu Qi to die without anyone to send him off. He simply wrote down his mobile phone number and explained that he was the "big tree" among those people, and then he sent it.
It was already past midnight, so he didn't expect the other party to reply immediately. Without thinking too much, he moved the mouse to the little red cross. However...
“Pah…!”
After clicking for more than ten times, the webpage was not closed. In the end, it was stuck on the screen. However, it was not the entire webpage that was stuck, only the two photos.
He may have accidentally pressed a button, which caused the photos of Cheng Wushuang and Wu Qi to be enlarged and completely occupied the entire screen. In the photo, they were smiling easily, but if you look closely, it is not difficult to find that their smiles are very unnatural.
It’s as if, as if… there’s another face hidden behind their smiles.
Chen Shu moved his head closer to the screen. No, not just seem, there really is a face!
The more he looked, the clearer the face became, until he could see it clearly. It was a child with pale skin, and the most horrifying thing was its eyes, which were blood red and made people tremble with fear.
"This is……!"
Chen Shu was shocked. He didn't know what was going on. Why did a child suddenly appear in the photo? He didn't dare to look at the photo anymore. He clicked the mouse a few more times, but the computer still didn't respond. Finally, he had no choice but to press the restart button.
He stared at the screen in shock, and the moment the computer restarted, he was horrified to find that the child's mouth in the photo... moved suddenly!
Although it was only for a moment, he was so nervous that he could see it clearly.
The shape of her mouth seemed to be saying to him:
"die!!!"
