Just as the reincarnated people fell asleep again, the security guard on the night shift was reading a book in the office. It was a book of ghost talk.

After turning a page, he looked up at the clock on the wall. It was almost time. He closed the book and stood up, ready to go to the last shift.

While he was waiting for the elevator in the lobby, the security guard scratched his neck and remembered the woman sitting at the front desk again.

At first, when he thought about it, he told himself hypnotically that maybe Xiaoqian's child had recovered from her illness and she came back from vacation, but the manager forgot to tell him.

But thinking about it now, he always felt that something was wrong. Although Xiaoqian's hair was also black and long, it didn't seem to be as long as that woman's...

And the woman's every move revealed an indescribable sense of weirdness.

Or...ask Xiaoqian to confirm.

The security guard walked into the elevator. He took out his mobile phone from his pocket, opened Xiaoqian's WeChat, and edited: "Xiaoqian, how is the child's illness? Are you okay? Also, did you come to work today?"

He considered his words, and finally pressed the "send" button, waiting for the other party's reply.

The light in the elevator shone on the screen of the security guard's mobile phone. At first he didn't feel anything strange, but after going up two floors in the elevator, his eyes suddenly widened, as if he saw something incredible on the screen of his mobile phone. thing.

On the screen of the mobile phone, a silhouette of a woman appeared in the reflection and refraction, standing right behind him.

The security guard froze for a moment. When he came in... there was no one else in the elevator.

He turned his head and looked behind him, but there was nothing.

The security guard picked up the phone, he pressed the screen off, raised the phone high, and looked through the screen refraction——

The woman is still there.

She was wearing a red dress and stood motionless next to the security guard.

Is it...

The security guard seemed to immediately think of something, and there was a look of shock on his face. It didn't look like something incomprehensible, but more like an emotion like "it turned out to be true".

He turned around and threw himself on the side of the elevator, holding the phone tightly, his eyes switching between the phone screen and reality.

However, the woman remained motionless, which made the security slightly relieved.

As long as the elevator opens, he will escape immediately!

Under the expectant eyes of the security guard, the elevator went up one floor after another, but when he kept looking up, once, he found that the female ghost in red appeared directly in his sight.

Not through the reflection of the phone screen, but directly in front of him.

The mobile phone slipped from the security guard's hand and fell to the ground. He was so shocked that he couldn't scream. He could only watch the female ghost appearing in the elevator walking towards him.

…………

The early morning sunlight poured in from the revolving door of the Cavill Hotel, making the two potted plants placed at the door stretch their branches and leaves more comfortably.

It's just that the other staff in this hotel are not so comfortable now - although usually at this time, the hotel is very quiet, and there will be much fewer guests coming and going than usual, but it is obviously different today.

The cause was that a guest found a dead body in the elevator.

One pass two, two pass three, three pass a hundred, because of the high-pitched scream of the guest, before the hotel manager arrived, many people gathered in front of the elevator, pointing out one after another.

Even ordinary guests are like this, let alone reincarnations.

Ye Zeqing and the others had already gone out to stand on the periphery of the crowd when the first scream appeared.

"What's going on here?" Ye Zeqing asked casually, arching a person standing outside.

The man glanced at Ye Zeqing, probably because he felt that he was extraordinary, but he was not angry at his rude behavior, but said in an exaggerated tone: "He is dead."

"what's the situation?"

"The woman in front wanted to take the elevator out, but when the elevator opened, she saw the body of the security guard lying inside."

Ye Zeqing: "That's it, that's really terrifying."

He squeezed to the front with great effort and glanced into the elevator twice: the security guard's face was already blue and his whole body was stiff, but there was a look of shock on his face, as if he had seen some unbelievable scene.

And his mobile phone fell to the ground, and the screen of the mobile phone was cracked. There was a WeChat message from Xiaoqian on it: [Don't mention it, it's still burning. I'm staying with him in the hospital. 】

Ye Zeqing withdrew his hand, squeezed out of the crowd again, and translated the news he had inquired to the rest of the reincarnations.

Xiao Li was not inside, he was in Shen Yanzhi's room, Ye Zeqing stood at the door of the room hesitating for a while and did not dare to go in, choosing to wait for the other party to wake up naturally.

And in that door, Xiao Li didn't hear the noise from the outside world, on the contrary, the room was very quiet, the curtains were half drawn, the soft sunlight came in, and the temperature was neither high nor low.

As soon as he opened his eyes, Shen Mizhi noticed it.

The young man was sitting by the bed, holding a book in his hand, but his eyes did not fall on it when he looked carefully.

His legs are naturally put together, showing smooth lines and good looks.

Shen Mizhi straightened up. Seeing that Xiao Li had woken up, he put down the book in his hand and moved his throat up and down unobtrusively: "You're awake."

Greeting Xiao Li who has just woken up like this is something he has been looking forward to for a long time. He even has a smile at the end of every word-if he looks like this, it will be seen by any god who knows him in the high-dimensional world. When you arrive, you will doubt your eyes.

It was also because of this that Shen Mizhi had to deliberately keep his tone down, otherwise Xiao Li could easily see that something was wrong with him.

Xiao Li rubbed his eyes. He had slept for a long time, and his eyelids were almost glued together. His open black eyes were sparkling, like the sun shining through the shade of a tree, with water lines. The radian is just right and slender.

"You woke up very early." Xiao Li said vaguely, he spoke with a soft, coquettish nasal voice at this time.

He is not like this usually, he wakes up very quickly, but for some reason, as if someone gave him sleeping pills last night, he can hardly keep his eyes open now.

Ah, too cute, foul.

Shen Mirage's thoughts.

Having not slept all night, he opened his eyes and said nonsense: "Fortunately, it's only a little earlier than you."

Xiao Li lifted the quilt and went into the bathroom. He habitually washed his face with cold water, forced himself to wake up, combed himself roughly, and then came out.

"Going to have breakfast?" Shen Mizhi had finished dressing, he looked indifferent and handsome, but what he actually did was quite soft, he asked after looking at the time.

Xiao Li picked an apple from the fruit basket, and his tone of voice had returned to his usual one: "I usually don't eat breakfast."

Supper is often.

He also handed one to the other party by the way, and Shen Mizhi stretched out his hand to take it. He looked at the other party's face still stained with water, and the action of preparing to go out, lowered his eyes: "Are you going out?"

Xiao Li has already reached the door, ready to open it: "Yes."

Shen Mizhi stood behind him, at the moment when he was at the door, he had the urge to reach out and press the door, but finally dropped his hand to his side.

-

Room 908.

When Ye Zeqing saw Xiao Li, he was eating a steak packed from the restaurant, and said narrowly, "Did you sleep well?"

Xiao Li sat down expressionlessly, and asked without answering, "What's going on outside?"

The elevator has been sealed off, and relevant personnel are investigating.

Ye Zeqing briefly explained the matter, and then concluded in a pretentious manner: "I don't know what kind of strange talk the security guard encountered, but I personally think that a crying woman has no time to trouble others."

In other words, there is a high possibility that the fourth strange talk has appeared.

Xiao Li took out the little yellow book, and picked up the pen to jot something down, but he was stunned for a moment just as he opened it, and a few lines of writing appeared on the little yellow book: 【The hair looks black and cold, but the touch feels But it's completely different, very soft and warm. 】

【I've been thinking about kissing you, wrapping your hair around my fingers, then holding you, and possessing you thoroughly.I never thought that restraining possession is such a difficult thing. 】

【What kind of person do you like? 】

For the previous words, Xiao Li was no longer surprised. He bit the tip of his pen and wrote a line under the last question: [It looks good. 】

He turned over this page and wrote a few key words about this task on the back.

Ri Yan didn't start the live broadcast at this time, but he still held his camera and didn't let go. He used the selfie stick to prop it up to watch things through it almost all the time, as if he was afraid that something would appear.

Ye Zeqing couldn't see it and asked: "Boy, why do you keep holding this thing?"

"I don't know if I'm afraid of ghosts coming." Ri Yan smiled apologetically, "The same goes for the woman who was crying before. At first, I could only see it through the camera..."

When he said this, Xiao Li suddenly asked: "—At first you could only see the crying woman through the camera?"

Ri Yan: "Yeah, I was scared to death at first, I only heard his voice, but didn't see him."

"But when we came, we saw it directly with the naked eye." Xiao Li put down his pen and said thoughtfully, "At first I thought the camera was only useful for Room 909, but now it seems... the crying The weird talk about women didn't exist in reality at first, or in other words, it couldn't be seen with the naked eye."

When he said this, Hull guessed and translated, and said in English: "From the perspective of the West, the camera has a special magnetic field. Through it, you can see things that are invisible to the naked eye."

Xiao Li: "Then there are two possibilities now, one, this is a special method of killing by ghosts, using a camera to capture their own traces, and finally reappearing; two, they can only exist in the camera at the beginning, until the end, they are not Step by step into reality, out of the medium."

Hull: "The second possibility, like going from a two-dimensional world to a three-dimensional world, from a plane to a 3D world?"

"I thought of Sadako. It spread the curse through a video tape, and finally crawled out of the TV. From the video to the real body, it also crossed a dimension." Ye Zeqing said as he cut a piece of steak and took it to the entrance. , and then pushed the steak aside, he lost his appetite to eat it.

Reiko: "At present, it seems that these strange stories have not been connected before, and I don't know where the source is..."

Ri Yan listened in a cloud, he pricked up his ears and played with his phone for a while, and then said: "I have asked many people, but no one knows the exact source of these strange stories, they are all passed from person to person, and the source has long been found It's not here."

Taotie sighed silently: "This is normal, if you ask me the specific source of the Bloody Mary, I definitely don't know."

Hull walked around the room, and he said eagerly: "It's not a problem to sit like this, I'll go outside to ask about the situation—"

As soon as he opened the door, he stayed where he was.

Seeing this, the rest of the reincarnators also stood up and came to the door together, only to see that the outside was no longer the corridor of the hotel, but a small alley instead.

Just like the small alleys in southern cities, extending in all directions, the ground is full of potholes and stones, the alleys are narrow, and the light that can penetrate is very limited.

And the moment the door opened, the interior of the room also changed, becoming one wall after another.

"The fourth strange story...?" Ri Yan's voice tremblingly broke the silence, he immediately chose the barrage body protection, set up the selfie stick, and opened the live broadcast room.

The time in this alley is obviously different from the reality. In reality it is broad daylight, but here it is close to night, the sky is dark, and the rain is not raining, and there are drizzles of rain falling on everyone's shoulders.

On the side of the alley are houses with very low eaves, made of bricks, but they are lonely, and the doors and windows of every house are tightly closed.

There are mountains of stones piled up in the corner, and an old bicycle is parked at the end of the road. It is not locked, but the iron chain on it has rusted, and the seat has been taken away, leaving only a steel pipe.

Xiao Li: "Let's go ahead and have a look."

The reincarnations took a few steps forward cautiously and walked into the alley, trying to find a way out.

The alley looked even darker, and the houses on both sides blocked most of the light, but what surprised Xiao Li was that there were no street lights on both sides of this road.

Generally speaking, the alleys in the city, especially the ones where people live, will have some lighting things, sometimes lanterns, sometimes street lamps.

But there is nothing on this road, and there is a smell of decay in the air.

It was very dark.

Maybach was the first to take out a flashlight from his pocket. He pressed the switch, and the white light penetrated the darkness, but before it was bright enough for ten seconds, with a crackling sound, the bulb of the flashlight exploded and went out automatically.

The alley was once again in darkness.

Xiao Li thought of a strange story that was also circulated in reality: Alley without lights.

According to legend, the alley without lights is the only way to approach a certain slaughterhouse in the old days. The most notable feature of this alley is that no street lights can be installed at all. would go off inexplicably.

Could this be the Alley of No Lights in the urban rumors?

No one knows how to get out of this strange talk, so they can only move forward.

The alley didn't look long, but everyone actually walked a certain distance. However, just as they were about to reach the end, Xiao Li, who was walking in the front, suddenly stopped.

Ye Zeqing has been paying attention to him, and he backed up in time to avoid the bad luck of crashing: "What's wrong?"

Xiao Li didn't answer, he followed the other person's line of sight, but this look made him terrified.

There was an old man next to the bicycle parked on the side of the road.

The old man had a bald head, his head was lowered, his facial features could not be seen clearly, and he was wearing clothes from the last century.

He held the handle of the bicycle with one hand, but the other hand was raised horizontally, pointing to the right, as if showing them the way.

This is...the meaning of asking them to go to the right?

Xiao Li observed the old man closely, but before he could react, the old man had disappeared without a trace.

It was as if he was a ghost on the street, showing up just to show them the way.

Xiao Li took two steps forward, and looked at the end of the road: After going out from this alley, there are two options, left and right, both of which lead to another alley, it is almost doubtful that if this continues The never-ending fork in the road.

"Is this a ghost hitting the wall?" Ye Zeqing touched his arm, he asked with lingering fear.

"No," Xiao Li denied, "Although they look roughly similar, the details are different. This is more like a... huge maze."

"Has any of you heard of this weird talk?" Ri Yan asked the audience holding a selfie stick.

[No, what is this place? 】

[It looks so intrusive, the boss protects me. 】

[I have never heard of the strange stories you have experienced except for Cavill's room, and there is no news on the Internet. 】

Perhaps because they thought they had lingered here for too long, several figures appeared one after another on the wall in front of this alley, all lowering their heads uniformly, pointing to the right.

Like a few street signs without emotion.

"These brats have asked us to go to the right, do we want to listen to them?" Taotie narrowed his eyes carefully and looked at the alley on the right, but he could only see the darkness.

"I think it's best not to, who knows where the ghost guide will point you to? Maybe... their lair?" Reiko bit her lower lip and stumbled to express her opinion in English.

"But in case this weird talk takes advantage of our mentality..."

Ri Yan looked left and right, and finally leaned against Xiao Li: "Boss Moriarty, what do you think?"

Xiao Li responded by taking out his phone, and he said naturally, "Wait a minute, I'll ask a professional."

Riyan:? ? ?

Xiao Li dialed a number.

The corner of Ye Zeqing's eyes twitched. He could roughly guess who the caller was calling, but Hull and the others didn't know yet—although Xiao Li made a ghost call in front of them before, but at that time he said In addition, it was in Chinese, and they didn't understand it very well, so this time Hull took the initiative to ask: "Mo, who are you calling? Don't we have no signal?" ?”

Xiao Li: "Electronic navigation."

Ye Zeqing took the initiative to translate for him, and said in English: "Gao De map."

Hull: "......??"

What the hell?

After a "beep", the ghost called and connected the phone.

Xiao Li stopped talking nonsense and went straight to the point: "Can you locate where I am?"

The phone ghost was silent for a moment: "No."

Xiao Li: "Don't be so ruthless, think about our past relationship, we have to talk on the phone every once in a while—"

"I mean," said the phone ghost, "I can't locate you. Another force is blocking my signal."

Xiao Li: "Oh? So you are really dependent on the signal? Then it seems that I have to bring a signal booster with me next time."

The ghost stick on the phone read: "...The phone you dialed is off, please try again later."

The words are not bad, but Li Gui's hoarse voice full of resentment is far from the sweetness of normal customer service.

Xiao Li debunked it: "You read it yourself, right?"

The next second, the phone ghost hung up the phone.

Xiao Li put back his phone, and shook his head at Ye Zeqing who looked concerned.

"Then you can only rely on your intuition now." Ye Zeqing said with joy in his bitterness, "Why don't you roll a dice to decide, Ouhuang."

Xiao Li glanced at him leisurely: "It's possible, but it's not necessary."

Ye Zeqing: "What do you mean?"

"Listen." Xiao Li nodded his ear.

Ye Zeqing listened intently for a while, and there was a faint voice coming from the right side of the alley, it was a voice that could be blown away by the wind: "Is there anyone..."

"Help me...ah...it hurts, help me...ah..."

This voice has been repeating these words intermittently. The voice is not shrill, but it is full of a sense of temptation to go to the rescue.

"Don't believe this kind of call for help, it must be a ghost. I met a siren in a dungeon, once you answer, you will—" Reiko spoke quickly, trying to let her voice overwhelm the cry for help.

But before she could finish her sentence, Xiao Li regained his energy and responded suddenly: "Where are you, I'm here to save you!"

Reiko: "..."

Her face turned green, frightened.

The author has something to say: Help the ghost: help me...

Xiao Li: Where are you? I'm here to save you!

Help-seeking Ghost: Is that you?no no no (kicking legs to climb back) don't want you to save me
