what's weird

The convenience store at the entrance of the community was still open. Gu Yizhi bought a bottle of drink and a bag of bread. Seeing that there was no one in the square, he went to a chair and sat down, opened a drink and took a sip.He really didn't dare to go home, Gu's mother took the opportunity to tell him about his girlfriend, and he was really powerless.

For this matter, he has always held the attitude of letting nature take its course, and he is not willing to have a low EQ, so he can't force it like today.He has absolutely no prejudice against Yang Nana, but this doesn't mean that he must have a good impression of her, anyway, he just can't do it like other men who can boast of flowers when they see girls.Besides, he was right, the police work is so busy, if it wasn't for Dad's birthday this time, he wouldn't have time to take a vacation, and he would have missed work for a week, and he would probably be too busy to touch the ground after returning, even if Yang Nana If he really came to Yicheng, he didn't have time to entertain him, so why bother him.

Gu Yizhi sighed, tore open the bread and chewed it.There is no moon tonight, the sky is dark, and the amusement facilities on the square stand quietly under the cover of street lights. Suddenly, the swing chairs sway gently.

Crunch, crunch, clear and piercing in the silence.

Gu Yizhi bit the bread and froze in place.The swing chair is made of solid wood with a shanty, heavy and big, with ivy climbing on the shelf, which is very rural. Girls usually like to sit on it and take pictures, but on such a night with no one and no wind, it is so beautiful. Suddenly he swayed.

Crunch, crunch—

The sound is slow and regular, as if someone is sitting on it and swinging.

Gu Yizhi chewed the bread mechanically, staring straight at the swing chair.He realized that he was really a bit of a loser, he could meet weird things everywhere, anyway, he couldn't afford to provoke him, so why not hide?He was about to leave, but Liu Neng's words in the afternoon sounded in his mind, and he stopped walking, and he couldn't move again.

But I can't even see the shadow of the other party, so where can I find Wang Chaoshan?

Gu Yizhi frowned in confusion, should Feng Ze come over to help again?But he just said in the afternoon that he was not a philanthropist, and Gu Yizhi couldn't say it because he kept bothering him like this, but if he just left Wang Chaoshan alone, he would not be able to pass the test in his heart.

Just when he was in a dilemma, the swing chair gradually stopped shaking, did he go?Gu Yizhi was surprised when he suddenly felt a sinister air rushing towards him, and a rancid smell that he was very familiar with penetrated into his nostrils.

She...is she standing in front of her now?

Gu Yizhi had goosebumps all over his body, subconsciously took a sip of his drink to suppress his shock, and turned away as if nothing had happened.But the yin energy did not disappear, instead there was a sound of gentle footsteps following behind him.Didn't it mean that ghosts float away? How can there be footsteps?

Thinking of what was behind him, Gu Yizhi's scalp became numb, and he quickly walked into the elevator.The elevator door slowly closed. In this narrow space, Gu Yizhi clearly felt that the yin energy was getting heavier and colder. Could it be that this ghost wants to go home with him?Gu Yizhi was so worried that he was helpless, and he stretched out his hand to press a floor, but the moment he looked up, he saw the white shadow standing behind him reflected on the silver elevator mirror.

Her hair was very long, covering most of her face, she was wearing a white dress, her toes were pointing to the ground, her whole body leaned forward slightly, and her mouth kept moving up and down.

What is she saying?

Gu Yizhi found that she kept repeating the same mouth shape, which seemed to be three words.He didn't know anything about lip language, so he could only try to make the same mouth shape as hers. Gradually, the three words came out of his mouth: "Help, help, me."

help me!

Gu Yizhi looked at the shadow in the mirror in astonishment, the female ghost no longer opened her mouth, but nodded.

"How can I help you?" Gu Yizhi asked.

The female ghost raised her hand and slowly wrote a word in the air.

"Lake?!" Gu Yizhi was stunned, and suddenly remembered the case of the dead body he encountered in Zhangjia Village, and asked in surprise, "Are you in the artificial lake in the community?"

The female ghost nodded again, repeating the three words "help me".Gu Yizhi asked, "Wang Chaoshan, the security guard, did you take him away?" But the female ghost shook her head.

Not her?Who would that be?

"If I help you, can you tell me where Wang Chaoshan is?" Gu Yizhi asked tentatively, bargaining with the ghost, he was really afraid that the other party would suddenly open his bloody mouth and pounce on him.Unexpectedly, the female ghost nodded. It seems that not all ghosts are so scary. Gu Yizhi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Tomorrow I will find someone to salvage your body, but now you can't follow me." I'm sorry, I will find you when the body is found."

The female ghost seemed to hesitate for a while, but judging from the current situation, she had no other choice but nodded.The elevator reached the floor that Gu Yizhi pressed just now, and the elevator door slowly opened. When it closed again, Gu Yizhi found that the shadow of the female ghost was no longer in the mirror.

Leaning against the wall, he found himself in a cold sweat, and even crushed the drink can in his hand.Fortunately, what I encountered today was not a ghost, otherwise he would probably have disappeared like Wang Chaoshan.He heaved a long sigh, alas, it seems that he still needs to ask Feng Ze for help in this matter.

There are two artificial lakes in the Shanshuihuating community. One is in the center of the community. There are lotus flowers, golden carps and turtles in it. The property often sends people to clean it up, so the water quality is still clean. People often visit the lake in summer. While enjoying the shade, if you want to throw the body, of course you won't choose this kind of place.The other lake is at the innermost part of the community, where a few big trees are planted, and it takes about ten minutes to walk there. There are no recreational facilities next to it, and residents are unwilling to go there.It costs a lot of money to maintain an artificial lake. In order to save money, the property owner did not clean the area much. Gradually, the water quality became more and more dirty. I heard that the property owner has planned to fill up the area and build a pavilion for people to enjoy in summer. Play cards to enjoy the cool.

Gu Yizhi walked along the path, and could already smell a bad smell from a distance. The lake had not been dredged for a long time, and the water quality had turned black and green, with fallen leaves and garbage floating on it.The two artificial lakes in the community are not big. This one is only half the size of the front one, about 30 square meters. The surrounding trees are particularly lush, making the place even more dark and humid.

How can I drain the water?

I definitely can't go to the police, there is no proof, if I tell someone that I ran into a ghost and told him, I will probably be kicked out.How to do it?Gu Yizhi stood by the lake, feeling helpless.In fact, he was not sure that the female ghost's body was at the bottom of this lake, but since he promised her, he still had to give it a try.

Gu Yizhi suddenly had a flash of inspiration, by the way, looking for a property!Just say that the water here is too dirty, which affects the quality of life!Gu Yizhi took out the number of the property company from his mobile phone, dialed it, and directly explained his purpose.

It was a girl who answered the phone. She said euphemistically that the staff had gone out and there was no way to clean up the lake for the time being, but they would arrange it as soon as possible.

Gu Yizhi knew that this "as soon as possible" was basically indefinite, and it was impossible for him to stay in Hanchang for so long, so he pretended to be serious and said: "As the head of the household, I am very disappointed with the environment of our community. After paying so much The property fee, but even the basic sanitation cannot be guaranteed. I will unite with other owners to refuse to pay this year’s property fee, and complain to the property committee!"

The property fee of Shanshui Huating is not low, [-] yuan per square meter. The property committee is an organization independently established by the owners to protect their own rights and interests. Each committee member is voted by the owners and has the right to select a property company.That is to say, if the owner complains too much to the current property company, the property committee can re-select another property company to manage the community.After hearing what he said, the girl was obviously stunned for a moment, and said, "Wait a minute, I'll ask if there is any staff in the cleaning department."

After a while, the girl returned to the phone: "Hello, our company is planning to build that lake into a gazebo, and we have arranged to pump water and clear the silt this afternoon."

"Oh, well, no matter what you build, you can't let it be so dirty anyway, it will affect your mood too much." Before hanging up the phone, Gu Yizhi did not forget to complain.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, two water tank trucks drove in from the back door of the community. Amidst the rumbling sound of machines, the lake water was pumped up by a huge water pipe and poured into the water tank trucks continuously.This place where few people usually come, now there is a large circle of men, women and children watching the excitement. Gu Yizhi stands in the crowd, nervously waiting for the result.

The water level was getting lower and lower, and the water pump suddenly made a few roars, and the speed of operation slowed down significantly.The person in charge motioned to turn off the machine, stepped forward and asked, "What's going on?"

"It may be stuck by something." The staff member said while removing the connecting pipe, and saw a few white things stuck on the fire hydrant, "What is this?" He stretched out his hand and took it out, suddenly staring With big eyes, he threw away the thing in his hand and shouted in shock: "It's a bone!"

"Look! There are also in the water pipe!" The water pipe lost the driving force of the water pump, and the water inside flowed backwards. The property staff saw several bones of different lengths falling out along the water, and shouted loudly.

"Is it the bones of a pet?" The person in charge squatted down to check.Suddenly, his face changed drastically, and he sat down on the ground with a look of horror in his eyes, "This is... a human finger!"

The police car roared into the Shanshuihuating community, and the police cordoned off the lake. After some professional salvage, they fished up countless bones of different sizes from the lake, and put them all in body bags and handed them over to the forensic doctor. Take it back for inspection.The residents of the community gathered around the cordon and whispered, talking a lot. Seeing how scattered the bones were, Gu Yizhi guessed that this was a case of brutal mutilation. Only the bones remained, and the time of death was estimated to be more than half a year.

Gu Yizhi sighed, that was all he could do. As for the investigation of the next case, it was the responsibility of the local police.

On the way home, he called Feng Ze: "Do you have time at night, my dad wants you to come over for dinner at night."

"Okay." Feng Ze answered on the other end of the phone.
