Chapter 242 The World That Wants to Strike 9
As expected, the next morning, the flowers on the bedside table were still as bright and fresh as ever. In fact, they were never the same.
Shi Qing knew that forcing him was useless, Shen Du was very cunning. He lied and denied it seriously, looking innocent and pitiful.
He worked diligently and conscientiously in the office, and with his elegant demeanor, he became friends with everyone in just a week.
Lin Xuan, who used to chatter in his ear, now ran to him to gossip.
Shi Qing was bored and scanned the group chat. Someone in the "H Country Paranormal Investigation Information Sharing Group" sent a picture.
It was the latest artifact unearthed from an ancient tomb, a corona with intricate and exquisite patterns.
It was dug out two months ago and stolen that night, and there has been no progress since then.
Shi Qing was about to pass by when his fingertips suddenly pulled down and his two fingers expanded. Among the crowd, a figure with long hair tied low disappeared into the crowd.
She subconsciously looked at Shen Du who was standing diagonally opposite her, staring at his long, smooth hair thoughtfully. The man seemed to sense her gaze, looked up at her, nodded and smiled.
"Jingle Bell--"
"Hello, this is the supernatural agency." Lin Xuan answered the phone with a serious expression.
"Okay, got it...don't worry."
"What's wrong?" Huo Ming asked in confusion.
"We received a call from the A City Police Department, hoping that we could send someone to assist them in handling a major case."
Without exception, the cases requiring their assistance involve some supernatural phenomena that cannot be resolved by normal means.
After Boss Cheng Junyan learned about it, he immediately dispatched the five of them, and this time Shi Qing was still in charge of the team.
The case happened in a famous university in City A. A boy fell to his death at midnight. The next day, a girl suffocated to death in the bathroom. Then, another boy drowned in the school lake.
The series of bizarre deaths caused panic among teachers and students in the school as well as public opinion.
After police investigation, these three cases were not homicides. The deceased was lively and optimistic, friendly with others, and had no mental illness.
While collecting relevant information, they noticed that there was a girl who was acting crazy and repeating the same sentence incoherently.
Here it comes.
"It's coming?" Shi Qing lowered his head and pondered, "It sounds like the cry of a beast being chased. Officer Zhang, besides this, do you have any other information?"
Police Officer Zhang, with a square face, displayed the information he had collected, which showed photos and transcripts of a man and a woman.
Ran Siyun and Fu Yanzhi.
"Among the people who knew about the incident, they were the only two who seemed relatively normal, and the clues they provided were the clearest. They were classmates in the same club as the deceased, had similar interests, and had been to an abandoned castle half a month ago..."
It goes without saying that they experienced mysterious and strange things there. After returning, their companions died mysteriously. They firmly believed that it was something from the castle that came to take revenge.
"It's a bit cruel to have killed three people in a row! But it just so happens that I've been idle for almost half a year, so this is a good opportunity to show off my skills!"
Huo Ming rolled his eyes at him, "You are the one who is fine. I always write materials until I vomit."
For any major case, the relevant procedures must be reported and filed, and the documents cannot be too "fantastic", so one has to rack their brains to come up with relatively scientific wording.
"You drive."
Probably thinking of a series of subsequent events, Huo Ming grabbed a handful of dazzling white hair in annoyance, as if he was tortured by work.
"Ah? Me? No, I haven't got my driver's license yet." Lin Xuan pointed at himself, stunned.
Huo Ming choked on his breath, "Didn't you take the exam a year ago? Why haven't you passed yet?"
"Let me do it!" Shi Qing was eager to try, and there seemed to be stars twinkling in his eyes.
"No! If you drive, we'll be lucky to keep our lives." Lin Xuan and Huo Ming said in unison, righteously turning around and saying, "Shen Du, you drive!"
Shen Du, who had nothing to do with the matter, blinked.
_
"yue~"
The sounds of vomiting continued.
Shi Qing handed over a tissue, covered his nose in disgust and stepped back.
"I can understand Xiaocha getting carsick, but you two grown men have only been sitting for half an hour, is it really that exaggerated?"
Lin Xuan wiped the dirt from his mouth, his face pale, "Sister Xie, your driving skills are still as deadly as ever!"
There were sparks and lightning all along the way, and she could even make a big drift at a perfect turn. Lin Xuan reasonably suspected that she was using the bus for personal purposes.
"Uncomfortable."
Even the quiet Jiang Cha couldn't help but accuse her. Her face was pale and her breath was weak.
Shi Qing touched the tip of his nose and said, "That's because you are not good enough. Look at Shen Du, he doesn't even frown."
Shen Du stood by the road and took a few deep breaths of fresh air before he suppressed the discomfort in his stomach.
When he heard Shi Qing mention him, he smiled but said nothing.
Huo Ming waved his hands and said weakly, "Let me drive. If we continue like this, I'm afraid we'll be gone before we reach our destination."
The three of them were almost ready and were on the road again. The car drove slowly on the road and finally arrived safely.
It is said that the castle was built by a private person in the last century. Later, with the development of urban construction planning, the area became more and more desolate and people moved away, but the castle remained standing.
The iron gate blocking the outside was rusty, with thorns and mosquitoes crawling on it. The iron lock with intricate carvings had fallen to the ground. The door was half-open, and it made a harsh creaking sound when pushed slightly.
It was noon, the sun was high in the sky, and the towering castle looked like a beast lurking in the dark, casting a large shadow on the ground. The densely packed windows were dark and blurry, and looking from afar, it was a little creepy for no reason.
Huo Ming took out the tool from his bag. The Bagua disk that was working fine in the car became disorderly here, and the pointer was shaking violently, as if it was afraid of something.
"No, it's very heavy and I can't see clearly."
Jiang Cha looked for a few seconds and then quickly looked away. There was a hint of fear in her pupils of varying depths. Her brows were tightly furrowed and she looked extremely painful.
"Don't watch it if you feel uncomfortable." Shi Qing hugged her and comforted her softly.
Shen Du next to her looked at her a few more times.
Lin Xuan changed his usual jumpy behavior. He squatted down, lit three incense sticks right in front of the castle, and inserted them in the open space in the yard.
He casually picked up a handful of soil, poured it into a bowl of water together with the ashes of the burning cinnabar talisman, and put it under his nose to smell it carefully.
Suddenly, he frowned, covered his mouth, and ran to the side to retch.
"well enough?"
Shi Qing and Huo Ming patted his back from the left and right, looking worried.
"There are at least ten here." The talisman water can subdivide various smells, including sour, bloody, sewer, rotten leaves, etc. There are no less than ten kinds of smells.
The smell that gathered together, like a mixture of corpses being burned and boiled in a garbage dump, went straight to the top of my head.
"The incense is not burned properly." Shen Du lowered his eyes, and his gentle and calm voice drew everyone's attention.
The incense on the ground stopped burning halfway, and it looked like it had been eaten by insects and ants, with bumps and holes all over it.
This is an ominous sign.
"Now, should we go in?" Lin Xuan looked conflicted. It was rare to have a situation like this where everything showed signs of a very bad omen.
Shi Qing hurriedly passed by the eerie castle, feeling frightened. He pretended to be calm and took out his phone, "Let me ask the boss first."
As soon as the call was made, hurried footsteps were heard at the door.
Everyone looked back and saw two young and immature men and women running towards them quickly.
Ran Siyun supported her knees and panted, "Ruan Ling, she went in there! You, please save her!"
Fu Yanzhi's forehead was sweating, and he explained to them relatively calmly: "Ruan Ling is our classmate, and she was also someone who went to the castle with us..."
In the morning, she was terrified and kept shouting to everyone she met, "It's coming! It's coming!"
"It" would come to take her life today. Perhaps out of extreme fear, she actually ran in alone.
She was the one who opened the door lock just now.
"Why is she so sure that it will be her turn today?" Shi Qing stared at the boy seriously with eyes as sharp as knives.
Fu Yanzhi returned her gaze and answered clearly, "Because that's the order in which we play the game. After her, it's me."
In other words, if it cannot be dealt with, death is very likely to come again until all participants are "eliminated".
