Chapter 135: Deceased Wife (23)
Chapter 135: Deceased Wife (23)
"Let's collect the clues from Meng Chengxi and the others during the day."
Shekh commanded while opening the door: "No need to wait, they are back."
"That's great." Shi Jinzhe opened the door and called in Meng Chengxi and Xiao Fang who were about to enter the house.
Meng Chengxi walked in: "When did you come back?"
"Twenty minutes ago, the one with the high heels was Manager Zhang. I didn't want to be discovered by her, so I came back. Didn't you run into her?"
"No, we didn't hear any high heels when we were on the third floor, nor did we hear any when we came up."
"That's good luck." Shi Jinzhe exchanged the clues he found with him, "What about you? What did you find?"
"Found one. I found it in an abandoned room behind the wall."
Meng Chengxi took out a piece of paper with irregular tears on the edge. The words were written in pencil. It looked like a primary school student's diary.
I glanced at the ten lines at a time and quickly grasped the most important sentence:
[After coming back from the hot spring at night, I heard the sister in red clothes crying secretly in her louise. Her face and neck were red, and there was also purple. I thought she looked in pain, so I gave her a táng, but she said, let mom take me to another long-term hotel...]
He glanced at the time and saw that the date in the diary was three years ago.
Three years ago, Zhang Anguo also died three years ago.
Meng Chengxi's tone was a little serious: "Do you think someone did something to her, such as that old pervert Zhang Anguo?"
He didn't want to speculate in which direction, but the hotel would definitely intervene in an ordinary beating. It was hard not to think too much when Manager Zhang was crying alone in the corridor.
"Then she could be the murderer of Zhang Anguo," Shi Jinzhe said with a headache, "but Zhang Anguo can't be the deceased wife. Why do I feel that the clues in this copy are getting more and more biased?"
Dead wife.
There are only two characters related to the wife.
A woman named Lu Xiaohui, whose husband cheated on her many times, has no children, and their relationship is cold. She is now living with a broken leg.
A Wang Luan, whose husband died and their relationship with her husband is uncertain, but their relationship with her mother is average. She has died and become a ghost.
The more clues he found, the less they were related to these two people. That night, basically all the information he found was related to Manager Zhang.
He thought for a moment and said, "Manager Zhang should be the link between the two couples. Let's wait for the teammates in Room 409 to come back and summarize the known information again."
"It's almost time. It won't be long until dawn." Meng Chengxi pointed to the bed that had not been slept in. "If you don't want to sleep, we can sit down and say no."
Shi Jinzhe nodded.
After sitting down, he asked again: "Have you found any other clues?"
"Yes, we found a third ghost on the fourth floor." Shekh listened to the screams in his ears and told him that there was a third ghost here.
"The third one?" Meng Chengxi grabbed his hair. "I'm really impressed. The clues in this instance are already fragmentary enough, and now there's another one with no information."
"Accept reality. No matter how broken it is, you have to piece together the truth." Shi Jinzhe threw the book written by Wang Luan over, "Take a look."
Meng Chengxi spent an hour quickly skimming through this meaningless book. When he was almost finished, Sheh said that his teammates from 409 had returned.
.
Liu Run's two teammates took out the room card and went into room 409. As soon as they opened the door, they saw Cheng Youan's eyes rolled back and he was only breathing in but not out.
One of them asked the frail Liu Run: "What happened to him..."
"If you're scared, a ghost will come in and will only crawl. It will either lie on the ground, or lie on the wall or the roof, with its head tilted. Its eyes will seem to be staring at you from any angle."
“…There’s more.”
"Also, after scaring someone unconscious, it would lie on the door and look out through the peephole, waiting for Cheng Youan to wake up before continuing to scare him."
“…I didn’t realize it, but he’s quite popular with ghosts.”
"No...it seems like the ghost was thrown in by someone. When it came in, it was a little dazed." Liu Run was distressed.
From the moment the ghost entered the room, he had a gut feeling that disaster was about to happen, as if he would never see the sun tomorrow.
He thought about it and suspected that the woman discovered that he had lied to her.
He regretted not telling the truth yesterday, and now he was getting more and more scared the more he thought about it.
"Liu Run, open the door."
When Liu Run heard Sheh's voice, his heart stopped in fear.
What you fear will come true. The debt collector finally came.
"Open the door for her..."
Liu Run said dejectedly that he was hoping for luck and didn't know if admitting his mistake again would be of any use.
……
The two teammates suppressed their anger. They were unwilling to give away the clues they had worked hard for all night.
If I don't say it, the end will probably be the same as Liu Run's.
"Alas, I will blacklist this Cheng guy when I get out. It's really a nuisance for me to have such an enemy."
The complaining teammate opened the door and started reporting clues without waiting for Shekh to speak, thinking in his heart that he should quickly send this plague god away.
"We went to the fifth floor last night but found no new clues. But yesterday evening, I found out that Manager Zhang had a boyfriend who was an editor at a publishing house and was eight years older than her. They broke up later for unknown reasons."
"I heard that the man cheated on her, and her mother's attempts to reconcile them failed. Anyway, after the breakup, Manager Zhang didn't want to mention this man anymore, and the colleagues at the hotel didn't talk about him much either."
"The rest is gone, really gone."
The two teammates chatted with each other, waiting anxiously for Sheh to leave.
But Sheh acted as if he didn't see the hint. He pushed aside a teammate and walked straight to Liu Run.
Under the two men's puzzled looks, she petrified Liu Run's body to his shoulders.
Before Liu Run even had the chance to beg for mercy, his sight instantly fell with a shattering sound, and then rolled twice on the ground.
The unpetrified face was cut by several broken stones. Holding Liu Run's head, which had lost its blood color in an instant, Shehe placed the head in front of Cheng Youan, ensuring that he would see this head with its eyes open when he opened his eyes.
Before leaving the room, she picked up the fallen props and gave the two special instructions, "Don't move the head. Whoever moves it will take its place."
