ghost stories

Han Xu drove Lu Yuan around the city in a car.Ever since he came out from Xu Jiayin's place, Lu Yuan hadn't said a word, nor said about going back, nor about where he was going.

"The car will run out of gas if you drive any further," Han Xu sighed, and waved his hand in front of Lu Yuan's eyes, "Brother, say something."

"Is this schizophrenia?" Lu Yuan patted Han Xu's hand away and said something.

"Ask me? Shouldn't you ask the psychologists of Mengda University?"

Lu Yuan didn't make a sound. He wanted to call Meng Fanyu as soon as he came out, but because Han Xu was there, he planned to call and ask after he went back.Han Xu had a very strong repulsion towards Meng Fanyu. There was no reason at all. If he asked too many questions, he would respond with the sentence "I just hate him", so Lu Yuan usually would not mention Meng Fanyu in front of Han Xu.

"Let's go to the pet market. I'll buy dog ​​food." Lu Yuan said, he didn't want to go back to the bureau, he didn't want to go back to the 19th, he didn't want to think about the case, and he didn't want to talk about Xu Jiayin.He felt that he had been reciting words recently, three years had passed since his birth year, and he was still so unlucky.He has always thought that things like the year of birth are nonsense, and now he can't find a suitable reason for the endless troubles that have arisen during this period of time.

"Do you have a dog?" Han Xu looked at him in surprise.Lu Yuan doesn't even grow flowers, but raises dogs.

"It was given by someone else."

"Birthday gift? This person doesn't know you well, but he actually gave you a living thing." Han Xu clicked his tongue twice, expressing his disbelief.Lu Yuan actually didn't understand why Meng Fanyu gave him a dog. This was one of the most unreliable gifts he had ever received. The other gift was the simulated human skull that Han Xu sent to the guard room of the appraisal center last year.

"I do not know either……"

"Is it for you to avoid evil?" Han Xu thought for a while and laughed.

"How do you say it?" Lu Yuan thought of the small huanghuali sign, and Meng Fanyu said it was a talisman.

"It is said that the eyes of children and dogs can see dirty things." Han Xu was a little funny that Lu Yuan didn't even know this popular legend. "For example, if there is something in your house, the dog will not go in."

"That's it." Lu Yuan smiled, then he should put the dog in Su Mo's room for a try.

Han Xu parked the car outside the pet market, and when he got out of the car, he remembered something: "Is it you who called me today? What do you want me to do?"

"Well, you can check someone for me." Lu Yuan said, Han Xu didn't mention it, he almost forgot.He said he didn't want to think about Xu Jiayin for the time being, but in fact all he could think about was her hands so thin that the bones could be seen and her face that was always covered by her hair.

And the phrase "in the mirror".

"Who?"

"Su Mo, live next door to me."

"Ah... what are you looking for?"

"All, I want to know where he goes every day, what he does, and his background information."

"Okay, give me a week."

Han Xu readily agreed without asking any unnecessary questions.This was an important reason why Lu Yuan would think of him when he had something to do, and Han Xu never asked him anything he didn't want to say.

Back on the 19th, it was still in the afternoon, the yard was quiet, no one was there, those who went to work went to school, and those who went to school went to school.Lu Yuan seldom saw No. 19 in the daytime. The lazy afternoon sun illuminated half of the courtyard, while the other half was still hidden in darkness. It felt quieter than at night. He even felt that the courtyard without Su Mo sitting there drinking tea seemed more very lonely.

When he was walking outside his room, he heard the puppy whimpering and barking in the room, scratching the door with its paws inside.Lu Yuan opened the door, and the puppy rushed out immediately, circling around his feet.

There is a pile of dog shit in the house, and three small beaches of dog urine.Lu Yuan stood at the door in a daze for a long time, only to realize that he forgot to close the door of the dog cage when he went out in the morning.He threw the dog food by the wall, found a mop from the corridor, and tossed and tossed for half an hour before finally cleaning up the dog's feces and urine all over the floor. Now he feels that the dog Meng Fanyu gave him is not what Han Xu said to ward off evil. Yes, purely to punish him.

The puppy was still circling around him, and he followed wherever he went. Lu Yuan thought for a while, grabbed a handful of dog food and put it in its bowl, poured some water to soften it, and the puppy happily shook it The tail lowered its head and ate away.

"Let me give you a name," Lu Yuan squatted on the side and looked at it for a while, "Let's call it Liuliu, Liuliu Dashun."

The dog ate happily, so he didn't have time to answer whether the name Liuliu was good or not.Lu Yuan stood up, stretched his shoulders, lay down on the bed, took out his mobile phone, and called Meng Fanyu.

After Meng Fanyu listened to his narration, he was silent for a while, and then said slowly: "Call the hospital, it's not possible to be hospitalized, you need to take medicine for treatment."

"What do you mean by what she said? Can you figure out why she is like this?" Lu Yuan really couldn't figure it out. Xu Jiayin has always been very cheerful and outgoing, how could she become a woman in just a few days? like this.

"It's hard to say. I haven't seen anyone so I can't make a conclusion. Let me introduce you to a good hospital."

Lu Yuan lay on the bed for a while, a little bored, he looked at the time, reached out and pressed the computer switch next to the bed.After moving here, he didn't have much time to turn on the computer, even though he turned on the computer, he didn't know what he was going to do.

After browsing through several frequently visited forums, he found nothing interesting, so he opened his mailbox.It's been a while since he checked his mailbox. He glanced at the more than 100 unread emails in it, and they were basically advertisements. One of them was a novel sent by Peng Anbang.Lu Yuan scrolled down the page, intending to clear it up, but saw his familiar name at the bottom of the page, Xu Jiayin, a total of three letters.

Xu Jiayin sent him an email?They never communicated by email, Lu Yuan felt a little strange, looked at the date, it was actually a week ago, and they were all sent on the same day.

According to what Han Xu asked Mother Xu, it took almost a week for Xu Jiayin to change.He wondered whether these letters might have something to do with Xu Jiayin's current state of mind.

He clicked on the first letter in chronological order. There was no subject or content. There was only one attachment, which was a picture.

Lu Yuan clicked on the picture to enlarge it, and the picture that jumped out made him a little confused. What did Xu Jiayin mean by sending him such a picture?She didn't leave a word, just a picture, wanted to play detective games with him?

This is a photo. From the photo, it can be seen that Xu Jiayin took the photo with a camera facing her vanity mirror.In the mirror, Xu Jiayin could be seen holding the camera, covering half of her face.In Lu Yuan's view, this is a very ordinary photo, just like many little girls like to pose for selfies in front of the mirror nowadays, there is nothing special about it.If there is something wrong with it, it is that Xu Jiayin is wearing pajamas, no makeup, and her hair is not well combed.

Xu Jiayin is a person who cares a lot about appearance, not to mention that Lu Yuan is her ex-boyfriend now, even when she is now a boyfriend, she will not let Lu Yuan see her unmodified image.

Lu Yuan turned off the picture and clicked on the second letter.Just like the previous one, Xu Jiayin didn't leave a single word, it was still a photo.This photo was taken of her standing in front of a full-length mirror. This time she put the camera in front of her chest to take the photo. She was still wearing pajamas, with her hair covered, her face was very pale, and her expression seemed a bit hollow.

What is this photo trying to express?Lu Yuan stared at the photo for a long time, but did not come to a conclusion. He could only speculate that something happened to Xu Jiayin when he took the photo, and something happened to her.

Lu Yuan had expected the third letter before he opened it, and he must have not written a single word.Sure enough, there is still only one photo under the blank content.

But when the photo was opened, Lu Yuan was startled by the pop-up picture, and he leaned back involuntarily.

This is Xu Jiayin's selfie, no longer facing the mirror, but pointing the camera lens directly at her face.The blank expression on her face was magnified several times due to the closeness of the camera, her eyes were wide open, and her lips were slightly parted.

Lu Yuan frowned. This photo looked like some kind of alternative performance art. Xu Jiayin's distorted face and eyes staring straight at the camera made him feel very uncomfortable.

Lu Yuan quickly closed the page, staring at the computer screen in a daze.Professional sensitivity made him feel that there must be a reason for Xu Jiayin to send him these photos. She wanted to convey a certain message to him, but what exactly was she trying to express?Or, is this just an unconscious behavior after her mental state went wrong?

Liuliu let out a humming sound behind him, Lu Yuan turned his head, and found that at some point, Liuliu had already run outside the door, and now he was squatting at the doorway and humming at himself.

"You want to go out to play?" Lu Yuan stood up and walked outside the door.

When Lu Yuan walked up to Liuliu and was about to bend down to touch it, it suddenly barked, and kept barking incessantly, its voice was full of anger, and retreated in the opposite direction while barking.

Lu Yuan didn't expect this reaction. When he just came back, the puppy was wagging its tail and circling him. Just for a while, meeting him was like meeting an enemy.

"Hey, little thing, what's the matter with you?" Lu Yuan didn't go any further, squatted down at the door, and looked at it.

The little guy finally stopped barking, but still kept a distance from Lu Yuan. No matter what Lu Yuan called it, it refused to take a step forward.Lu Yuan stretched out his hand to it, trying to catch it, but it jumped up and jumped back, baring its teeth at Lu Yuan.

"Eyes of children and dogs can see dirt..."

Han Xu's words flashed through Lu Yuan's mind at this time. He didn't believe this statement. There must be other reasons for the abnormal reaction of the dogs. People can't understand what they call, maybe they are playing tricks. Got angry.

but……

But because of this sentence, Lu Yuan suddenly felt that something was wrong, he withdrew his hand and pressed it on his temple, something was a little abnormal...

Photo!

Xu Jiayin's last photo.

Lu Yuan jumped up and rushed to the computer, opened the mailbox, and opened the last photo he saw just now.Xu Jiayin's empty and absent-minded face popped out again, Lu Yuan enlarged the picture a little, leaned over, and looked into Xu Jiayin's eyes.

The sight made him gasp.

Xu Jiayin's widened eyeballs were the same as that of the female corpse, showing radial cyanosis.

From the middle of the pupil, it looks like small purple lightning bolts, spreading out to the whole eye.
