Nightmare Attack

Chapter 139 Shoe prints
"Since the ghost has left, let's hurry up," Zhou Rong glanced around. Under the dim environment, his heart was filled with uneasiness, "Everyone spread out and search, I'll go to the kitchen."

"I'm nearby in case the ghost comes back suddenly," Pei Qian said immediately.

After speaking, the two looked at Jiangcheng together, and now only the second floor was left without anyone searching.

It was obvious that they were going to leave him with unfamiliar locations.

"Exciting!" Jiang Cheng suddenly became excited.

Zhou Rong, who was tense, was scared out of his wits by Jiang Cheng's sudden yell. Pei Qian was even worse, because of his age, he suddenly felt wet.

"Then please leave it to Mr. Yin."

Zhou Rong, who was pale, didn't stop after he finished speaking, and walked directly to the kitchen door. The ghost came out from this door, as did the sound of chopping vegetables not long ago.

Pei Qian is now a little afraid of Jiangcheng from the bottom of his heart. This person seems to have a brain problem. In order not to be implicated by Jiangcheng, Pei Qian also chose to stay away from him and searched in another direction.

Jiang Cheng strolled to the vicinity of the stairs. He didn't go upstairs immediately, but after thinking for a while, he suddenly squatted down and pressed his ears against the wall near the stairs.

Because of his vision, Pei Qian couldn't see him for the time being, and thought he had gone upstairs.

There was a thin layer of dust on the ground inside the building.

Jiang Cheng's gaze slowly swept over the steps of the stairs, and a few spots of dust seemed to have been wiped off.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, and then took a few steps up the steps, but it seemed that his movements were open and closed, but the sound he made was inaudible.

He chose a location with a better view and squatted down, where he found several shoe prints.

The shoe prints were messy and not clear, as if someone ran around in a panic.

Based on what Pei Qian said, this should be left by Jiang Zhongyi before his death.

He carefully identified several shoe prints, and quickly judged that these were not the shoe prints of one person, but of two people, and judging by the size, they should be two adult men.

He immediately thought of Penfolds, who was missing on the first night.

It seems that he has also been here most likely, and was attacked by ghosts here.

Just when Jiang Cheng stood up, was about to change positions, and carefully looked at the few shoe prints left behind, his eyes flashed from the corner of his eye, and the legs that were about to fall suddenly stopped.

Just where he was about to land, he found another shoe print.

The size of this shoe print is obviously different from the previous two. The model is smaller and the width is narrower, as if it was left by a woman.

Thinking of this, he immediately looked at his feet.

A little bit beside where I was standing, there were also traces of dust being wiped off.

It was as if there was once a woman who, with the same movements as Jiang Cheng, chose to stand in the same position, observing the shoe prints on the stairs.

For the first time, a different emotion appeared in Jiang Cheng's eyes.

He looked up at the corner of the dark stairs, and then slowly backed down with extremely slow movements.

The moment he turned around, he suddenly found a face appeared behind the kitchen door.

It's Zhou Rong.

But at this moment, he seemed to be paler than before.

Pei Gan also searched around and turned back.

After Jiang Cheng pretended to have searched upstairs, he walked down the stairs as if he found nothing.

"How is it?" Pei Qian looked at Jiang Cheng and asked in a low voice.

Jiang Cheng shook his head pretending to be deep.

Pei Gan licked his lips, glanced at the stairs quickly, and then asked in a strange tone: "Why didn't I hear footsteps upstairs? Mr. Yin couldn't be afraid, so he didn't search."

Hearing this, Jiang Cheng immediately gave way to the stairs, stared at Pei Qian with aggrieved eyes and said, "If you don't believe me, go up and see for yourself."

Pei Gan glanced at the dark corner at the end of the stairs, and couldn't help rolling his throat.

"I thought. I thought you could come in and take a look."

Zhou Rong's voice was rather strange, as if he was trying to suppress it, as if he would spit it out if he didn't suppress it.

At the same time, there was a faint smell of blood wafting from the kitchen.

Pei Gan's expression turned ugly in an instant, thinking about something.

But in the end, he moved his feet and walked over with Jiang Cheng.

Zhou Rong stepped back and made way for the two of them to open the door.

Pei Qian walked in first, and Jiang Cheng followed behind him.

As soon as he entered the door, a strong smell of blood came to his face, mixed with the stench of rotting meat.

On the ground is a large dark hearth, the whole body is built with stone bricks, and the part next to the limestone floor is covered with a thick layer of yellow mud.

There are several blue and white porcelain bowls where the tableware is stored, scattered here and there, most of which are missing corners.

There is also a huge basin covered with wooden boards.

The bloodstains on the dark stove looked like the scene of dismemberment in a movie.

It's not like, here it is!

Zhou Rong had obviously looked at the contents of the basin, so when he lifted the wooden board covering the basin this time, he just took a deep breath, but Pei Qian's face turned pale immediately.

Inside the basin are pieces of minced meat, some of which have strange colors should be internal organs.

What was even more frightening was that they saw a finger that had been hacked and the bones were chopped into pieces, but there was still some flesh attached.

His stomach turned upside down, and Pei Gan, who was the weakest, finally vomited it out.

Jiang Cheng jumped away immediately.

Zhou Rong's reaction was a step slower, and when he wanted to hide again, it was already too late, dirt was splashed on his shoes, and he hurriedly backed away.

There were bloodstains on the limestone floor.

Although the blood was not dry, it had already become sticky and thick, and when the foot stepped on it, it made a "creaking" sound, which made people feel nervous, and at the same time, a shallow shoe print was left.

"Huh?" Jiang Cheng suddenly said.

Zhou Rong immediately looked at Jiang Cheng, but before he could speak, the latter lowered his voice and asked vigilantly, "Did you hear anything just now?"

"What. What sound?" Pei Qian asked in horror.

"It seems to be upstairs," Jiang Cheng said quickly while turning around and walking towards the door, "You stay here, I'll go and have a look."

"I'll accompany you," Zhou Rong followed.

Suddenly, his arm was pulled, and his figure stopped.

"Mr. Zhou." Pei Qian's face was very ugly, but he still held onto Zhou Rong's arm, and said in a low voice, "Just let him go alone. Let's find clues first, and the ghost will be back soon."

During the few seconds of delay, Jiang Cheng had already left the kitchen, and his shadow was nowhere to be seen.

Zhou Rong turned his head slowly, looked at Pei Qian's sad face, and after a few seconds, suddenly smiled: "Okay."

"I've found a clue," Zhou Rong said, walking backwards.

His walking posture was rather strange, and his strength was much stronger. The weak Pei Gan was almost taken away by him.
