The Taste of Ghosts in the World

"I'm going to walk the dog, are you going?" Qi Mu asked Feng Baisui standing at the door.

"No." Feng Baisui kept flying his hands on the keyboard, and replied without turning his head.

"When I come back, you'd better have upgraded." Qi Mu pulled the golden retriever out and closed the door behind him.

Ever since Feng Baisui despised his game-playing skills and let him operate it in a fit of anger, Qi Mu's account was almost always Feng Baisui's. Satisfactory.

It's just that the computer used to pass the time was taken over by Feng Baisui, so Qi Mu had to find other ways, such as reading books or walking the dog.

Walking a golden retriever is a high-risk, high-investment job with little return. Qi Mu must do everything possible to ensure that it can move forward like a normal dog, and control the advancing route within a reasonable curve range so that it does not go around Circle, but also to prevent any emergencies at any time.

Fortunately, the golden retriever seems to get used to this behavior pattern recently, and going out for a trip is not so tiring, Qi Mu is sincerely relieved.

"Hey, little brother, can you do me a favor?"

Voices suddenly sounded from the upper left, Qi Mu looked back and forth, he was the only one, so he had to look up.

A young woman stood on the terrace of the villa next door, waving to him, "Sorry, I didn't pay attention when I came up, the door is closed, it can't be opened from the outside, and I don't have a key, I'm the only one at home, I can help you." Shall I open it?"

"I can't get into your house."

The woman lay on the edge of the terrace and pointed to the back door, "I was watering the flowers just now, the door was not closed, you can come in through the back door."

Qi Mu looked at the golden retriever, a little hesitant.

The woman said again: "If you are worried about the dog, you can come in together, please."

After thinking about it, Qi Mu went around the garden and entered through the back door.

The villa is not well lit, and it is dark inside, but it can still be seen that there are not many furniture, and some rooms are even empty.

The golden retriever refused to go upstairs, so Qi Mu tied its chain to the handrail, walked up to the third floor alone and opened the balcony door, the woman let out a sigh of relief, patted her chest and said, "I thought I couldn't get out, thank you Ah, brother."

"You're welcome." Qi Mu turned and went downstairs, the woman followed behind him, and enthusiastically persuaded him to keep him for dinner.

Qi Mu said embarrassingly, "I've already eaten."

"Then eat more?"

"No, no, no..." Qi Mu declined, suddenly felt something was wrong, just about to turn around, but there was a sharp pain in the back of his head, and he had already passed out on the ground.

When he woke up again, he was put on a chair, his hands were tied behind his back and he couldn't move.

Qi Mu tried to struggle a few times, but it didn't work. He looked around the room and found a folding bed in the corner. There was a small round table and a few stools next to the bed. The golden retriever was sleeping on its stomach against the wall, with a puddle on its mouth. saliva.

He was trying to wake up the golden retriever when someone came in, the woman who was trapped on the terrace.

"Are you awake?" She bent over and looked at Qi Mu.

Qi Mu forced himself to calm down and asked her, "What are you going to do?"

"What am I going to do?" The woman repeated Qi Mu's question, tilted her head and thought for a while, with a naive look, "As long as we can be together, I will do nothing."

Qi Mu only felt that things were getting more and more troublesome, so he could only ask, "Who are you?"

"I'm An Lin! Forgot me?" The woman winked at him, her tone intimate.

"What An Lin..." Qi Mu tried his best to remember whether he had seen her, but he couldn't find any impression of this woman after searching all over the school and the community.

An Lin stood up, went to the corner and moved the small round table in front of Qi Mu. Qi Mu was still confused when he watched her movements.

The community... that's right!

Seeing the skirt she was wearing, Qi Mu suddenly remembered the woman who passed by the gate of the community...the woman who was motionless by the landscape lake...

It's all her!

Although they had met her twice before and after, they were undoubtedly strangers, why did they attack him?Still illegally imprisoned?

Qi Mu thought of the severe pain in her head before and after she fainted. What did she use to beat her?Look at the shoulders on both sides, there seems to be a little blood stains.

An Lin put the bag in her hand on the table, took out a plastic lunch box, opened it, scooped out a spoonful of rice with some vegetables, and handed it to Qi Mu's mouth.

Qi Mu looked at her posture, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, "What are you doing?"

"Feed you." An Lin replied as a matter of course, the spoon touched Qi Mu's lips, trying to make him open.

"...you let go of my hand and I will eat by myself."

"No! You will run."

Qi Mu was helpless, "Why did you tie me here?"

"Because I can't lose you anymore!" An Lin stared at Qi Mu without blinking. The seriousness in her eyes was almost paranoid. What to think next.

In order not to let An Lin lose control of her emotions, and to survive, Qi Mu could only accept this way of eating.

After the meal, Qi Mu asked her to get something to eat for the golden retriever, An Lin obediently obeyed, and after finishing, she kissed him on the cheek and said excitedly: "It's exactly the same about liking dogs!"

Qi Mu was taken advantage of, but unfortunately his hands were bound, so there was nothing he could do.

Afterwards, An Lin went out for a while, and when she came back, she pulled a round stool over, sat at Qi Mu's feet, and began to sleep with her lap on his head.

There is no window in this room, Qi Mu doesn't know if it's already dark, but he feels that he should still be in that house, how long has it been since he walked in the door?

An Lin's breathing became more and more even and gentle. Qi Mu knew that she had fallen asleep, and began to think about how to leave in his mind.

The rope was strong and tied so tightly that it was impossible to break free;

There are no windows here, so calling for help shouldn't help;

There is only one hope of escape - the mobile phone!

Fortunately, he also brought a mobile phone.

But he couldn't dial out, he could only wait for others to call in, who would find himself missing?Is it a hundred years old?

But he is a ghost...

No, although he is a ghost, he can touch things!

Qi Mu said silently in his heart: Feng Baisui, Feng Baisui, Feng Baisui... Don't be addicted to the game... Don't miss out that I didn't go back...

Feng Baisui finally got promoted to a higher level, let go of the mouse, and planned to take a rest, but found that Qi Mu was not at home.

He went for a walk with the dog...

Thinking of this, he looked at the clock, ten o'clock.

Feng Baisui thought unkindly, luckily he didn't go together, walking the golden retriever was really difficult...

After thinking about it, it's too late to walk until ten o'clock, isn't it?

He was a little worried, and when he left the room, he saw the father and daughter of the dead ghosts floating in the living room watching TV.

"You two, do you know where Qi Mu went?"

The decapitated female ghost raised her head, "It's normal for a boy of this age to have a date with a female classmate and come back later."

Qi Mu?Dating?

Feng Baisui immediately darkened his face when he thought about how he was walking with a woman.

Uncle Crashed Ghost said beside him, "Are you chatting at Longhu? But it was too late. Even if you are a boy, you should come back sooner."

Feng Baisui thought it was possible, so he decided to wait.

He turned around and went back to the room, and the dead ghost muttered, "Are you in danger? There have been a lot of robberies recently."

Feng Baisui paused, and suddenly rushed towards the door.

The dead ghost was startled, and followed him and shouted: "Are you going to find him? Wait, I'll go with you!"

Feng Baisui paid no attention to it, and moved quickly without touching the ground. When he reached the edge of Longhu Lake, he didn't know which tree the hanged ghost was in, so he had to shout indiscriminately all the way.

"Hello—are you here? Are you here?"

"What's wrong?" The hanged ghost appeared behind him.

"Where is Qi Mu?"

"Qi Mu...he hasn't been here today."

The person who wanted to come to Longhu to walk his dog didn't show up...

Feng Baisui's heart skipped a beat, and he froze for a while before the Killing Ghost arrived slowly and asked the question just now again.

"Oh, did something really happen? What should I do?" The dead ghost was in a hurry.

Feng Baisui said to him with a cold face: "You look here, I'll look there, I'll look for everything nearby!"

The dead ghost nodded and said: "I'll go and call my daughter!"

The hanged ghost also said: "I can't be too far away, so I'll be in charge of the Longhu area."

They searched for a long time, and finally met by Longhu Lake.

"Did you find it?"

Each shook his head.

Feng Baisui's face was very ugly, "What time is it?"

"It's just past twelve."

At this time, the decapitated female ghost suggested: "Call, does he have a mobile phone?"

"Try it!"

Feng Baisui was the first to rush back to Qi Mu's house, and after searching around, he found that there was no landline at all.

The dead ghost said, "Do you want a public phone?"

"How?" Feng Baisui asked him.

"Can't you touch it?"

"Do you have a phone card? Or can you give money?"

"..."

Feng Baisui didn't want to waste time talking nonsense with him, so he suddenly thought of a way.

The sleeping old man Zhang was shaken awake by his collar, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Feng Baisui's ferocious face.

"It's midnight, what's the matter with visiting the humble house?"

"Do you have a phone here?"

Old man Zhang said inexplicably: "How can there be a phone at the fortune-telling booth?"

Feng Baisui left him and was about to leave.

"Wait!" Old man Zhang stopped him, and took out a mobile phone from beside the pillow, "There is still this."

Feng Baisui snatched it unceremoniously, and quickly dialed Qi Mu's number.

Feeling the phone in his pocket vibrate suddenly, Qi Mu was overjoyed and began to twist his body until the phone fell out of his pocket and fell to the floor.

It's an advertising text message...

Qi Mu cursed secretly, looked at An Lin who was sleeping soundly on her lap, could she think of a way to coax this woman to untie the rope?

At this time, the screen of the mobile phone on the floor lit up again and began to vibrate non-stop.

It's a call!

Qi Mu was agitated, and desperately moved his toes to reach the phone. After the vibration ended, the ringtone rang. He secretly thought that something was wrong, so he quickly stepped on the phone with one foot, and pressed the call button with the other toe firmly.

Feng Baisui's urgent voice came from the phone, "Hello? Where are you?"

Qi Mu tried his best to lean forward, and said to the phone: "Feng Baisui, help! Help..."

Feng Baisui clenched his hands and almost squeezed the phone, "Where are you?"

"do not…"

Before Qi Mu finished speaking, An Lin suddenly screamed and threw herself on the ground to grab the phone.

"Hey, hello! Where are you..."

In the next second, the phone was smashed against the wall with Feng Baisui's voice, and then fell to the ground.

An Lin turned around, knelt down and hugged Qi Mu's leg and wept bitterly, "You're leaving me again, aren't you? Why can't we be together...don't...you have to stay with me..."

Qi Mu looked at the phone from a distance, the screen was already black, An Jingjing showed no sign of survival.

Like the hope of his rescue.

An Lin cried for a long time until Qi Mu began to doze off, but she suddenly stood up, bent down, put her face close to Qi Mu's, and whispered softly: "It's so similar...especially these eyes...they are exactly the same ..."

Qi Mu immediately woke up from his doze, and was forced to look at her. Feeling her fingers gently stroking his face and around his eye sockets, the hair on his back stood on end.

Seeing his wide eyes, An Lin suddenly laughed, took his head into her arms, and said while patting: "We will be together forever from now on, are you happy?"

Qi Mu's mouth and nose were pressed against her shoulders and he couldn't speak. An Lin said to herself, "I'm very happy."
