Quick Travel: Save the poor little villain

"came back."

Jinchen lay on his side next to Xia Tan and rubbed his hair. "It's okay, go to sleep."

Xia Tan was rubbed all over by invisible hands, and the strange feeling in his heart came back.

[Detected the villain's emotional fluctuations, triggering the heartbeat value, heartbeat value +5, cumulative 5! ]

Jin Chen pressed Xia Tan into his arms, and said in a low voice with a hint of joy, "Little Bee was worried about me just now."

"……No."

I thought you were going to leave.

"Yes." Jinchen was dissatisfied.

"…All right."

If you say there is one, then there is one. I can’t beat you.

Xia Tan buried himself in the quilt. The embrace from behind was very cold, colder than wet ice dripping with water overnight. He did not dare to struggle.

Fortunately, it is summer now. Xia Tan silently took out the remote control and turned off the air conditioner, thinking so, otherwise he would be frozen to death before being scared to death by the ghost brother.

There was a ghost on the bed and Xia Tan couldn't sleep. It had been like this for the past few days, but this was the first time he was held so tightly by the ghost. It was so strange.

After a few minutes, he resigned himself to opening his eyes, and his curiosity caused his fear to dissipate a little.

"Ghost...Brother, what was that just now?"

Jinchen was really sleepy, and his voice was tinged with sleepiness, "Peeping ghost, by the way..."

Jinchen hugged him tighter and muttered against Xia Tan's shoulder, "The man who died in the fall case was called Jiang Wen, right?"

Xia Tan tried his best to ignore the strangeness in his heart and nodded, "Yes."

"The peeping ghost said I killed him." Jinchen said.

Xia Tan's eyes widened in surprise, and then he asked tentatively, "Why?"

Don't you ghosts have to break the laws of the underworld when you kill people?

Jinchen paused, still a little aggrieved: "I don't remember."

"I'm a poor wretch with amnesia."

Xia Tan: “…”

I don't see how you are pitiful.

But this incident obviously aroused Xia Tan's curiosity thoroughly. As a reporter, his sensitivity made him feel that Brother Ghost might have some unspoken hatred with the deceased Jiang Wen in the past, or even deeper, he might be a very familiar person... a ghost.

Xia Tan quickly crawled out of Jinchen's arms, took the notebook back, and took out the photos to show Brother Gui.

"They are Jiang Wen's parents and friends. Do you have any impression of them?"

Jinchen: “No.”

Seeing Jiang Wen’s corpse made him extremely angry, but Jinchen felt nothing when he saw these people.

Jinchen held down the notebook, pinched Xia Tan's chin and kissed him, whispering threateningly: "Are you going to sleep or not? If not, I will kiss you."

"...Well, I'm going to sleep!"

Xia Tan's face turned slightly red from the kiss, and she was so scared that she quickly hid under the quilt, fearing that the ghost brother would get excited and eat people.

When he was hugged and fell asleep again, Xia Tan was so scared that he kept muttering "Amitabha".

[Host, look how scared the Lord God is. We agreed to proceed step by step.]

Jinchen wouldn't listen.

He is a ghost now, and ghosts don't need to be reasonable.

【……】I’m so angry.

What will you do if you can’t catch your wife?

Ling rolled off to sleep.

Early the next morning, Xia Tan received a call from the police contact person. He hurriedly agreed and contacted his colleagues at the news agency to prepare to go to the police station.

Afraid that the ghost brother would go crazy if he was hungry, Xia Tan specially prepared a whole day's worth of food.

Anyway, if you are just absorbing the aroma, there is no difference between cold and hot dishes.

But Xia Tan was still blocked at the door.

Jinchen's stiff body blocked his way out, and his tone was also stiff, "Where are you going?"

"With whom, what to do, and when will you be back."

Xia Tan: “…”

If Xia Tan had somewhere else to live now, she would hate to come back.

Xia Tan responded bitterly: "My colleagues and I will go to the police station to make contact and will be back in the afternoon."

The next second, he was pulled into a cold embrace again. Xia Tan could clearly not see anything, but he still closed his eyes out of fear.

When a kiss fell on his cheek, he was so nervous that he grabbed the corner of his clothes and tore at it, his eyelashes trembling.

Fortunately, Jinchen didn't pester her anymore. He just attached his ghost energy to Xia Tan's shoulder and raised his hand to pinch her face.

"Go home on time, or I'll punish you."

“……Oh.” How could this be!

Xia Tan walked away holding his backpack in grief and anger.

-

As soon as Xia Tan got in the car, he started searching for 100 ways to exorcise evil spirits.

The car heading to the police station was used exclusively by the news agency for field work.

In addition to him, the reporter, there are also the driver and photographer Shaodong, and the prop master and pioneer Pang Ge.

And Lian Min, a good friend and news editor who was called by Xia Tan to help temporarily.

Seeing Xia Tan searching the web again, Fatty looked at her and asked, "Xiao Xia, what happened to you? Why are you searching for this?"

Xia Tan didn't dare tell anyone else about Brother Ghost's secret, fearing that something bad might happen when he returned home at night, so he could only change the topic to a relatively tactful one.

"I have a friend..."

Fat Brother: "Uh-huh, you...oh, what happened to your friend."

Xia Tan: "There is something else in my friend's house... an invisible... ghost."

Xia Tan, who has always been praised for his eloquence, stuttered for the first time.

Fat Brother slapped his thigh and said, "Brother, I have a way. There is a Taoist temple in my hometown. My grandma said that the Taoist priest in the temple is quite powerful. How about I give you the phone number and you can add me as a friend and ask?"

Xia Tan stubbornly refused to admit it, "Thank you, Fatty. I'll ask my friend."

Fat Brother laughed and sent him the number.

After all, the decency of adults is not to expose others.

Lian Min just finished answering the phone and said to Xia Tan, "Xiao Tan, the police asked us to go directly to Gaocheng South Road. There is a new case there, which is said to be related to Jiang Wen's death."

-

Gaocheng South Road, inside a residential building.

Xia Tan met with the police contact person, "Officer Cui, is there anything strange about today's case?"

Officer Cui pulled open the cordon and let them in. He gave them masks and gloves, and his tone was a bit heavy.

"You will know if you come in and take a look."

It was not the first time that Xia Tan had seen a dead body in his career, but he was still quite shocked when he saw the body lying on the living room floor.

"This……"

The brave fat guy didn't dare to look directly into those eyes, "Wow... so creepy."

I saw a corpse of a young man lying in a spread-eagle position, with the exposed skin turning purple and dark blue, and covered with strange black lines. All the skin where the lines had crawled was exploded, and blood was constantly oozing out.

His eyes were wide open, as if they would fall off at any moment, as if he had seen something terrifying in the last second of his life.

After a brief discomfort, Xia Tan was shocked to discover something strange about the corpse.

He hurriedly took out the photos from the backpack and compared them. "This body is similar to Jiang Wen's tragic body."

"When Jiang Wen's broken body was pieced together, that's where the lines appeared on the corpse."

Officer Cui: "Yes, this is not a coincidence... Our people found that Jiang Wen and the deceased Jin Bing were cousins. Five days ago, the deceased's mother was questioned as Jiang Wen's aunt in a routine interview about the case."

He suddenly lowered his voice again, using his hands to block his words, "I estimate that this case will be transferred to the Strange Investigation Institute in a few days. Our forensic doctor can't find out the cause of this person's death."

Lian Min was surprised, "Was this man also killed by a ghost? What kind of ghost is so sinister?"

Fat Brother: "Oh, ghosts... They are all scary. They are so evil that they don't even need a reason to kill people."

He clasped his hands together and bowed, praying that he would not be haunted by ghosts.

Xia Tan suddenly clutched the photo tightly, and his pupils contracted slightly.

The words that Brother Ghost said last night are still lingering in my ears.

Jiang Wen was killed by the ghost brother, and his death was so miserable.

What about Jin Bing? Is he the same...

Why did Brother Ghost kill them?

Who will be the next one...

Xia Tan felt inexplicably nervous. The deeper his fear of ghosts, the greater his fear of death.

He took out his cell phone, searched for the social account according to the phone number given by Fatty, and added the Taoist master as a friend.
