Starting from the folklore forum, making up town objects

Chapter 270: Gouging Eyes, Hunting Ghosts

When Bai Yongnian found Yao Zhizhi's company based on the content of the private message in the forum, he was told that Yao Zhizhi had already resigned, or to be more accurate, had been fired.

As for the reason, it was that Yao Zhizhi went crazy!

In order to find out the real situation, Bai Yongnian used a red envelope worth one thousand yuan to invite Yao Zhizhi's colleague to a coffee shop to find out the situation.

Later, Bai Yongnian found out that a few days ago, Yao Zhizhi asked a female colleague from the company to go to her home to accompany her, and in the middle of the sleep, he actually gouged out the female colleague's eyes!
When saying this, Bai Yongnian could clearly see the fear in Yao Zhizhi's colleague.

But this did not stop Yao Zhizhi's colleague from wanting to talk. She told Bai Yongnian a lot of things, including the incident of jumping off the building.

After the incident of Yao Zhizhi gouging out her colleague's eyes, the colleagues group went wild with all kinds of comments.

At that time, everyone in the company was very surprised and said that they had never noticed that Yao Zhizhi had a mental illness before, and that this disease was really scary.

Originally, this matter should have just passed and become a topic of conversation among them, but the development of the matter was beyond their expectations.

Things took a turn when a middle-aged couple approached the company, saying they were the parents of the man who jumped from the building and wanted the company to pay for his life.

After some investigation, the company learned that the person who jumped from the building left a suicide note, which involved Yao Zhizhi's actions.

A newly graduated college student couldn't stand Yao Zhizhi's teasing and chose to leave this dirty world.

After learning about this, the company had no way of staying out of it, after all, Yao Zhizhi was working at the time.

Finally, the company informed the college student’s parents that Yao Zhizhi was no longer an employee of the company and compensated the parents a sum of money.

The issue of the college student’s parents was resolved, but the discussions among the company’s employees did not stop.

Some people said that after Yao Zhizhi found out about this, she felt so much pressure that she drove herself crazy.

This statement is the most reasonable, but it is not believed by most people. Instead, the other two statements are more discussed.

The first theory is that after learning about the college student’s experience, the college student’s parents tried to find a way to take revenge on Yao Zhizhi.

It's not about fighting, but like in the movies, various traps were set for Yao Zhizhi step by step, scaring Yao Zhizhi to death!

Considering that the parents of the college student did not come to the company to make trouble in the two days after the college student's death, and their attitude of just taking the money and leaving, some people think it is very likely, but in the end it still feels a bit magical.

However, when someone proposed another statement, most people felt that the previous statement was quite conservative.

The second theory is that the college student who jumped off the building turned into a ghost after his death and haunted Yao Zhizhi. The ghost blinded Yao Zhizhi's eyes, causing her to do the act of gouging her eyes.

According to Yao Zhizhi’s colleagues, the colleague group and colleague bar were basically discussing this matter during those two days. Some people even said that the company should invite a fortune teller to exorcise the evil spirits!
The incident did not calm down until the company stepped in and banned related topics.

Bai Yongnian was silent for a long time after listening to this.

He didn't expect that this would happen to the owner of the post he found on the forum.

Comparing the time Yao Zhizhi spent picking her eyes, Bai Yongnian's heart skipped a beat.

It seems that the post was published on the night when Yao Zhizhi picked her eyes.

This also explains why he was able to contact Yao Zhizhi that night, because Yao Zhizhi was not asleep at all at that time.

If it was one or two days at night, Bai Yongnian would probably not get a reply from Yao Zhizhi, and naturally would not be able to come here.

"Where is Yao Zhizhi now?"

Bai Yongnian asked his own question.

"Maybe in the police station, maybe in a mental hospital, I don't know."

"Then can you tell me Yao Zhizhi's previous address and the police station that took him away?"

After Bai Yongnian said this, before the woman opposite him could show any embarrassment on her face, he took out a red envelope from his bag and placed it on the other person's table.

The woman looked at the thickness of the red envelope and quietly covered it with her bag. Then she took a note and a pen from the front desk and wrote down the address information for Bai Yongnian.

"Can I ask who you are to Yao Zhizhi?"

Bai Yongnian looked at the contents on the note, smiled, took a sip of coffee, and did not reply.

Seeing Bai Yongnian getting ready to leave, Li Ying, Yao Zhizhi's rival in the same department, hurriedly said:

"Are you the person Yao Zhizhi invited to come to see what's going on?"

Bai Yongnian was stunned and glanced at his own appearance.

"Do I look like a seer?"

Li Ying smiled somewhat stiffly.

"No, I was overthinking it. I'm sorry..."

After Li Ying finished speaking, she grabbed the red envelope, stuffed it into her bag, and left the cafe in a hurry, just ahead of Bai Yongnian.

Looking at Li Ying's departing back, Bai Yongnian seemed to be thinking about something.

On that day, Bai Yongnian went to Yao Zhizhi's rental house first. Although he did not go in, he still used a net sieve to confirm that there was residual evil spirit in Yao Zhizhi's home.

Afterwards, Bai Yongnian went to the police station and wanted to see Yao Zhizhi as her friend, but he failed.

It’s not that Yao Zhizhi is missing, but that Yao Zhizhi has been transferred to a mental hospital.

According to the police, after Yao Zhizhi arrived at the police station, she kept saying that someone was watching her and that she would poke the police's eyes when they approached her.

It was the kind of scratching that could have killed her. If the police hadn't reacted quickly, she would have been sent to the intensive care unit like Yao Zhizhi's female colleague.

Bai Yongnian naturally couldn't enter the police station to check if there was any evil spirit, so after finding the address of the mental hospital, he went straight there.

After a whole day of traveling, Bai Yongnian was unable to meet Yao Zhizhi because it was too late and Yao Zhizhi was involved in a lawsuit.

It was not until the next day that Bai Yongnian saw Yao Zhizhi, whose upper body was tied up and her arms were fixed.

"There is a ghost, there are eyes... There is a ghost, there are eyes..."

Yao Zhizhi's eyes were bloodshot. She muttered and looked around, as if she was looking for something.

"Yao Zhizhi?"

"There is a ghost, there are eyes... There is a ghost, there are eyes..."

Seeing that Yao Zhizhi did not respond to his words, Bai Yongnian thought for a moment and then said:

"Yao Zhizhi, I'm from the Night Talk Folklore Forum. My name is Yongnian Danbai. Do you remember me?"

Yao Zhizhi, who was mumbling, suddenly stopped talking, and her pair of bloodshot eyes suddenly met Bai Yongnian's.

Being stared at by such a pair of eyes, Bai Yongnian felt a little numb on his scalp.

"Do you remember?"

"..."

Although Yao Zhizhi didn't say anything, she was obviously reacting to what Bai Yongnian said.

Bai Yongnian continued speaking.

"Yao Zhizhi, I know you are haunted by a ghost. I came here to help you get rid of that ghost."

"..."

"Can you tell me everything you know?"

After a long silence, Yao Zhizhi suddenly spoke.

"You, can you deal with that eye?"

"Eye?"

Bai Yongnian immediately took over the conversation.

"Yes, eyes."

There was no more trance in Yao Zhizhi's eyes, only fear remained.

"It's his eyes. He's seeking revenge on me! It's him. It must be him! Those are his eyes!"

Yao Zhizhi became more and more excited. Bai Yongnian was afraid that she would go crazy again, so he asked hurriedly, "The him you are talking about, are you referring to that college student?"

"Yes, that's him! Can you see him?"

Yao Zhizhi leaned forward suddenly, an excited expression on her face.

"You can deal with him if you can see him! Save me, save me, I will give you whatever you want, I have money, I also have a body, I will give you whatever you want!"

Yao Zhizhi seemed to want to grab Bai Yongnian's hand, but she forgot that her hands were wrapped.

Bai Yongnian leaned back. "Why do you think it was him?"

"Who else but him!"

The panic on Yao Zhizhi's face turned into viciousness.

"I was just joking with him, and he jumped off a building in our company and committed suicide. He will never achieve anything with this kind of ability to withstand pressure!"

"Just jump if you want. Why choose our company? Isn't this aimed at me? If I had known that it was him who jumped off the building, I would have paid someone to kill him again!"

Bai Yongnian looked at Yao Zhizhi's face and frowned.

If Bai Yongnian had met this kind of person at other times, he would definitely spit at him.

But now, if we don’t deal with the ghost next to this guy, we don’t know where the next one will be.

Bai Yongnian felt that it was not worth it to increase the risk of failing the assessment just for a little psychological discomfort.

After thinking for a while, he said, "The ghost may still be with you, but I can't enter the yard now."

Ignoring Yao Zhizhi's eyes that changed from resentment to pleading, Bai Yongnian took out a long box more than 20 centimeters long from his bag.

Wu Que Yu is among them.

"Take this thing and put it in the room. Don't leave it more than one meter away. You don't have to worry about what happens next."

Yao Zhizhi looked at the box, her face full of surprise.

Since she has no hands, she will just bite with her mouth!

Bai Yongnian frowned and took back the box.

"It's precious. If you damage it, there's nothing I can do."

Yao Zhizhi nodded hurriedly.

"I know, I know, I will keep it in the room and never leave it!"

Bai Yongnian nodded, packed up his things and said to Yao Zhizhi: "I will come to see you tomorrow. If that thing doesn't dare to approach you, I will think of other ways."

"Okay, okay, thank you. By the way, I'll ask my family to transfer money to you!"

Bai Yongnian shook his head and was about to leave when he suddenly thought of something.

"What's your landlord's phone number?"

……

After Bai Yongnian came out of the mental hospital, he called Yao Zhizhi's landlord.

After the meeting, Bai Yongnian asked for the spare key on the grounds that he was Yao Zhizhi's relative and needed to clean up the house for Yao Zhizhi.

Of course, the process was definitely not smooth.

The landlord used the fact that Yao Zhizhi had committed a crime in his house as an excuse and not only did he not want to return the deposit to Yao Zhizhi, he also demanded compensation.

In the end, Bai Yongnian paid 10,000 Daxia coins to shut the landlord up and obtained the right to use the room for the next seven days.

After successfully entering the room, Bai Yongnian put the net sieve on his head.

As for the soul-binding ropes, they had already been tied to the limbs of the body.

After walking around the room, Bai Yongnian kept his gaze on the bloodstain on the bed for a while, and then he shifted his gaze to Yao Zhizhi's bag.

Compared to the yin energy on the bed, the yin energy in Yao Zhizhi's bag is more intense.

After tying one end of the soul-binding rope to his palm, Bai Yongnian walked towards the bag and opened it.

After searching, Bai Yongnian found some blood and mucus in the interlayer pocket of the bag.

There used to be something here, but it's gone now.

Unable to find the ghost's true form, Bai Yongnian took out a Wangpan and lit the pine and cypress branches.

He plans to sleep here tonight, so he still has to do some of the work that needs to be done.

After fumigating with pine and cypress branches for half an hour, Bai Yongnian left the room and walked towards Yao Zhizhi's company building.

Since there is no ghost in the room, it seems that the only possible place is the building.

The process of entering the building is simple, but getting to the fourth floor is a bit difficult.

Bai Yongnian wanted to go and see the place where the college student was dismembered. There was a high possibility that the ghost's real body would be there.

But this time, Bai Yongnian's ability to use money failed. Compared to that little quick money, the security guard wanted to keep his job more.

In desperation, Bai Yongnian thought of a way.

interview!

As the workday was about to end, Bai Yongnian entered the building with the interview notice under the suspicious gaze of the security guard.

The interview was held on the seventh floor. Outsiders were not allowed to press the elevator floor buttons, so Bai Yongnian could only go up to the seventh floor and then go down to the fourth floor through the emergency passage.

Although it was a bit troublesome, the goal was finally achieved.

After walking on the fourth floor for a while, Bai Yongnian found the door leading to the large platform outside the fourth floor.

Unfortunately, the door was closed.

In desperation, Bai Yongnian could only put on a sieve and look around outside the door.

Just when Bai Yongnian was looking for the trace of the ghost, a big hand pressed on his shoulder, and with a twist, he let out an "ah" and bent his waist!
"I knew you were dishonest! Come on, follow me to the security department!"

The person who came was none other than the security guard guarding the gate in the lobby on the first floor, Zhang Bing!

If Bai Yongnian had used the reason of interview at the beginning, he would not have thought too much about it, but if bribery failed, would he change it to interview?

There's something fishy about this no matter how you look at it!
Afterwards, he told the captain about the matter with doubts, and then found Bai Yongnian on the surveillance camera. He rushed over alone and captured Bai Yongnian.

Ten minutes later, Zhang Bing and the captain of the security department looked at the rice sieve on the table, the dark red rope taken off Bai Yongnian, and the stone basin and pine and cypress branches taken out of the bag, and looked at each other in surprise.

"You, what do you do?"

Zhang Bing asked hesitantly.

Bai Yongnian smiled bitterly.

Who would have thought that the first time he caught a ghost, he didn't fall into the hands of the ghost, but into the hands of humans.

"I said I came here to see Feng Shui, do you believe me?"

"..."

Seeing Zhang Bing and his captain looking suspicious, Bai Yongnian was startled. It seemed that these two people actually believed it?
Thinking of the college student who jumped off the building, Bai Yongnian suddenly understood something.

Immediately, a smile appeared on his face.

"Of course, you can also call me... Mr. Watcher!"

Seeing the two of them swallowing their saliva, Bai Yongnian knew that he had guessed right.

Without waiting for the two to speak, Bai Yongnian pointed at the net sieve on the table.

"Whether you believe it or not is not the first thing to say. Just take my magic weapon to the fourth floor and you will know whether what I said is true or not."

Looking at the net sieve on the table, Zhang Bing and the captain looked at each other.

"Captain, shall I go take a look?"

Zhang Bing picked up the net and sifted.

"Well, go ahead. If this kid is lying to us, just send him directly to the police station!"

"it is good!"

Zhang Bing was about to leave when he heard Bai Yongnian's words again.

"It's getting dark now. Bring a rope with you. I'm afraid something might happen to you."

"..."

Zhang Bing's body stiffened. After looking at the captain, he reached out and picked up a rope, then quickly walked out of the security room.
