Nightmare Apostle

Judging from the time of the video, the female ghost appeared after Brother Zhao and others had all withdrawn from the script studio, which means that Brother Zhao had not been replaced.

There was no surveillance in the boss's room. Yang Xiao quickly dragged the progress bar to see where the female ghost went. However, for a long time, the surveillance in the hall was empty. It was not until the end of the video that anyone walked into the surveillance screen. Go to the service desk.

And this person is Yang Xiao himself.

Cold sweat broke out from behind, and the surveillance camera showed that the female ghost in white never came out since she entered the boss's room.

That said, it's here now!

The cold sweat on my back is not entirely due to the fear in my heart, but the temperature here is also dropping sharply.

The clothes he was wearing seemed to be completely unable to resist the chill. Yang Xiao was all too familiar with this cold atmosphere.

The ghost is coming, and... .right behind him!

Yang Xiao can even judge the location of the ghost based on the video footage in the script room. It is very close behind him, and the ghost face is almost stuck to the back of his head.

But Yang Xiao didn't look back, and he didn't plan to look back. He guessed that the reason why the ghost hadn't made a move was because he was waiting for him to turn around, and then kill him head-on.

This is probably the ability of this ghost. At the moment when he turned around, Yang Xiao slowly grasped the lantern, and then raised his left hand suddenly, pouring a large amount of spiritual power. The green light emitted by the ghost lantern instantly enveloped him. Throughout the room, the moment they turned around, they grabbed the human bone stick with their right hand and threw it behind them.

He saw a pale and translucent ghostly face, but before the human bone stick could be drawn, the ghostly face disappeared in a flash.

This stick was too hasty, causing problems with the posture of exerting force. Yang Xiao almost twisted his waist in one pass.

Yang Xiao held one hand on the wall and the other on his waist, grinning with pain. He did not expect that this guy was so weak that he ran away as soon as he met him.

After resting for a while, Yang Xiao went to script room No. 7 and turned on all the lights in the room. This was a room specially built for the ghost drama script. The female ghost appeared twice in total, and each time it was the source. This is unlikely to be the source. coincide.

Yang Xiao participated in the creation of the script room last time and knew the layout very well. He suspected that the haunting was caused by the room itself.

He first carefully checked the various props in the room, under the bed, in the wardrobe, under the table and other places that were easily overlooked, but found nothing after a search.

"No?"

Yang Xiao fell into self-doubt. He sat on the long wooden table and scanned every corner of the room inch by inch until he stopped at his feet.

In order to make it easier for NPCs to sneak into the players unnoticed, a layer of sound-absorbing mats was laid on the floor of the room. However, due to cost constraints, the mats were of average quality and were made of several large pieces. There were even a few holes in the corners. slightly raised.

Yang Xiao squatted down and lifted up the floor mat with his hands. There was no problem with the first piece, and there was no problem with the second piece. Until he lifted the third piece, Yang Xiao's pupils shrank, and a pale white face actually appeared under the floor mat. No, wrong,

It's a white mask.

Wrapping his hands with the sleeves of his opera robe, he picked up the dried facial mask. After getting it, Yang Xiao became more and more sure of his guess. This mask was the Resentful Eye, and this thing was the culprit that caused the supernatural incident.

Someone put this thing here specifically.

Putting the mask away, Yang Xiao quietly exited the room. When he walked out of the script studio door, Brother Zhao had already picked up his cell phone and was about to make a call.

"It's okay, it's settled." Yang Xiao comforted Brother Zhao with a smile, while speaking louder.

It was just enough for nearby employees to hear clearly, "Someone planted a magic array in your office, Brother Zhao. I found the eye of the array and broke it. It was a butcher's knife.

,

"Where?" Brother Zhao was shocked.

"It's in the deepest drawer of your office, wrapped in yellow paper that was burned to death. Brother Zhao, have you offended someone?" Yang Xiao asked pretendingly.

"But now that the magic circle has been broken, there will be no problem from now on. Brother Zhao, you can do business with peace of mind, and everyone can go to work with peace of mind. It's just a small matter." Turning his head, Yang Xiao comforted several shocked employees,

Especially the female clerk who turned pale with fright.

"Really?" an employee with dyed yellow hair, small eyes and a flat nose asked, seemingly suspicious.

"Of course it's true." Yang Xiao reassured everyone. They would pack up and get off work today, and then come to work as normal after dinner. After all, script shops usually do better business at night.

After everyone was almost gone, Yang Xiao took Brother Zhao back to the boss's room. The two closed the door. Yang Xiao explained his findings to Brother Zhao. He did not mention the professional term "resentful eye", but tried to use the magic array evil The technique is a method that is easier for Brother Zhao to understand.

In short, someone set up a magic array in the script room, and now that the array has been broken by himself, the female ghost will not appear again in the future, but they must find the person who set up the magic array, otherwise this kind of thing will happen I'm afraid there will be more in the future.

Hearing that Brother Zhao was in trouble, "Some time ago, Fengmen Ghost Show became famous, and now business is extremely good. During this time, hundreds of guests came here to play. We also opened a less scary check-in and photo-taking For the experience project, there are at least 300 to 400 people.

? ,

Theoretically, these people all have the opportunity to commit crimes, but the script killing is not to check the household registration. The personal information left by the customers is very limited. If you want to follow this clue to investigate, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

But Yang Xiao had a different idea than Brother Zhao. He recalled that the location where the mask was hidden was very hidden, and it didn't look like it was found in a hurry. This person knew the layout of the script room quite well, and he was highly suspected of being an insider.

"Have any new people come to the script shop recently?" Yang Xiao asked.

Brother Zhao nodded without thinking, "Yes, business has been good recently. My store was too busy, so I hired three more employees."

“Who gets the chance to stay in the script room for a long time?”

Hearing this, Brother Zhao thought for a moment and recalled: "The only one is Xiao Chen. Among the three people, he is the only one who knows how to take care of the script room. He is responsible for organizing the props in the room after the script game is over every night. Then get off work.”

"Oh, he was here just now, the big boy with a strong accent and yellow hair. His name is Chen Long." Brother Zhao introduced.

After hearing this, the figure of this person immediately appeared in Yang Xiao's mind. He had yellow hair, small clear eyes, a flat nose, and some freckles on his cheeks. He looked quite honest and honest, but Yang Xiao remembered that after he said that the matter was resolved, this guy The first one to jump out and question.

"Where does he live?" Yang Xiao asked.

"He said that he had just arrived in Rongcheng and had no place to live. I rented a room in the old residential area as a warehouse.

If there is a bed there, let him stay there for a while, and then move out after finding a suitable house. "Brother Zhao replied.

Yang Xiao nodded, thinking about it, "Then will he still be on duty tonight?"

"Come." Brother Zhao confirmed.

Now Yang Xiao is 70% sure that this person is the murderer. He has succeeded in alerting the snake. Tonight he will use a trick to catch the turtle in the jar.

Judging from the previous impression of Huang Mao, this person's methods are not very clever. Even the apostle is a low-level grudge. The purpose of catching this person is to catch the big fish behind him. He guesses that this matter is not just Targeting Brother Zhao alone.

According to Yang Xiao's arrangement, Brother Zhao arranged for someone to be on duty tonight as usual. In order to perform a full set, Brother Zhao also invited Yang Xiao to have a big meal downstairs in the evening. After that, Yang Xiao took a taxi and left, while Brother Zhao drove home alone.

But not long after, Yang Xiao used the power of the soul-capturing mirror to sneak back to the script club quietly and hide in Brother Zhao's boss room.

Time passed by, and Yang Xiao kept an eye on the people outside through the surveillance system. After sending away the last wave of customers, the remaining clerks went off work. Chen Long greeted them to go first, and he cleaned the rooms one by one. .

"Sure enough, there is a ghost." Yang Xiao in front of the screen couldn't help but sneer. After all, this place had just been haunted.

Everyone avoided him, but he dared to stay alone. Yang Xiao didn't believe it if there was no problem.

Soon, the fox's tail was revealed. When he was cleaning the script room No. 7, Chen Long pretended to accidentally knock over the trash can in his hand. Then he knelt on the ground and blocked the surveillance camera with his back. He didn't know what he was doing with his hands on the ground. , and with a thought in mind, Yang Xiao appeared behind Chen Long and looked at him as he was busy.

I saw that Chen Long had already put on a silver glove on his left hand, and then opened a corner of the floor mat. There was a facial mask under the floor mat. This was the cheapest one that Yang Xiao bought in the department store downstairs. Chen Long was wearing gloves. He carefully lifted up the mask with his silver gloves, looked left and right, and seemed to notice something was wrong. This mask... why is it still wet and slippery, as if it was newly unpacked?

"Something's not right?" Yang Xiao asked, standing behind Chen Long.

"Yeah." Chen Long, who was squatting on the ground, didn't even look back. He stared at the mask and nodded, "It feels weird. Why does it still smell like milk?"

‘Do you like it? I just bought it this afternoon. Yang Xiao said with a smile.

In fact, after answering the first question, Chen Long realized something was wrong. He had obviously sent all his colleagues away. He should be the only one left in the script shop at this time, so how could he...::

With almost no chance to resist, Chen Long was taken down by Yang Xiao with one hand. Even Yang Xiao himself did not expect that this guy was so weak. He was not an apostle at all, but an ordinary person with a weak constitution.

Yang Xiao pinned the person to the ground, pressed his left knee on the opponent's neck, and applied pressure little by little.

"Say, who sent you?"

"Don't... don't do this, I'm going to die!" Chen Long begged, but Yang Xiao had a cold face and remained unmoved.

"Cough...cough..." Chen Long's cheeks soon became red, his whole body became trance-like, and his speech became weak, "Yes...it's Boss Wu! Boss Wu asked me to come of."

Yang Xiao relaxed his knees slightly, gave him some mercy and said in a cold voice: "Which Boss Wu?"

‘I don’t know his name, but he is also the big boss of a script-killing shop, with several shops.

The store in Rainbow Plaza belongs to him. "Chen Long breathed rapidly, and as fresh air flowed into his lungs, he finally came to life.

At this moment, Yang Xiao finally remembered that when Boss Wu took away Brother Zhao's business, he asked Fu Qingzhu to help him settle the matter. Unexpectedly, it didn't take long for him to come back again, and he was playing tricks on others.

This matter has touched Yang Xiao's limit. This is no longer about grabbing business, this is about killing people. "Is that Boss Wu an apostle?" Yang Xiao decided to come to the door in person and have a good chat with Boss Wu. chat.

"What... what master and apprentice?" Chen Long's face was full of confusion, "No, no, I'm not familiar with him. It's not a master-disciple relationship. I was hired by him with money. He gave me 30,000 yuan and promised that things would come true. Then give me another 20,000,

Let me take classes here for a month. "

Yang Xiao was speechless and asked: "Then do you know what the facial mask you left here is?"

"I know something, Boss Wu said it was peeled off a dead woman's face, which is quite evil.

"Chen Long answered everything he knew.

"Then you're not afraid, this thing is haunted." Yang Xiao really couldn't understand the brain circuit of the yellow man in front of him. Some money can be earned, and some money can be used to kill people.

Unexpectedly, Chen Long shrank his neck and whispered: "Afraid, of course I am afraid, but he gave me a glove and told me that as long as I put on the gloves and touch this thing, nothing will happen. Except for cleaning the room, I never come here." People here wouldn’t even step on this mat with a facial mask on it.”

"Besides you, are there any accomplices nearby?" Yang Xiao asked.

"No...no more." Chen Long seemed to still want to struggle, turned his head as hard as he could, and forced out an ugly smile, "I am a good person, please let me go, I will give you half of the money, I... .I was deceived by Boss Wu.”

"Stop talking nonsense!" Yang Xiao slapped him on the back of the head, then immediately pulled off the silver gloves and stuffed them into his pocket, "Remember your words, and think carefully about how you colluded with Boss Wu. Yes, when you get back to the station, you can repeat it to me again. If you miss it by half a word, let’s see how I deal with you!”

In order to be sure, Yang Xiao took out the human bone stick and confirmed that there were no signs of evil intentions towards him around him, and then dialed the patrol department's duty phone. After the call was answered, the sound of Beibei eating potato chips could be heard from the other side. Yang Xiao was startled, "Why? you?"

Beibei's impatient voice sounded, "Brother who works the night shift, do you think everyone is just like you, the director's dear baby?"

After listening to Yang Xiao's introduction, Beibei gave a suggestion that it is best not to let their Lin'an Office take over this matter. After all, the place where the crime occurred belongs to the jurisdiction of the Luming Office, otherwise it would be somewhat suspected of exceeding their authority. The most important thing is that this The matter also involved Yang Xiao himself.

Yang Xiao followed Beibei's suggestion and called the Luming Office to call the police. Matters involving resentful eyes and supernatural incidents were under the jurisdiction of the Patrol Office. Soon, a group of people hurried over, led by the man in windbreaker Yang Xiao. acquaintance.

"Captain Wu, you are actually leading the team yourself." Yang Xiao smiled and stepped forward to greet him. Wu Zhe and Wu Zhengwu had helped him a lot last time, otherwise Qu Muzhi would not have been able to get rid of this piece of shit so easily.

Seeing that Yang Xiao was also very close to him, Wu Zhe smiled and said, "Knowing that it's you, Captain Yang, I don't dare not show up. How about it? Is the matter serious?"

"It's a small matter, but there are many things involved behind it. Someone paid someone to cause trouble." Yang Xiao introduced.

After sending people to arrest Chen Long, Wu Zhe approached Yang Xiao, glanced at the script club's sign, and asked in a low voice: "I heard that you have part of the shares in this store?"

"That's right, it's just a hobby." Yang Xiao smiled bitterly. What he said was true. After all, he didn't expect to make much money from this.

Unexpectedly, Wu Zhe seemed to have misunderstood. He nodded with a clear face and promised in a low voice: "Okay, with your words, I will understand what to do. Don't worry about this matter. Avoid suspicion and dare to go to Rongcheng." This world has done something dirty to our brother’s business. I really don’t know how big a king is. I’ll help you drive him out of Rongcheng and make sure he never dares to come back.”
