Suddenly, the surroundings were pitch dark, with only the cold wind blowing in, mixed with the 'whoosh' sound that only occurs when wind blows in an open space. Other than that, there was no movement. The boy's message seemed to suddenly disappear from the world.
The girl was frightened and huddled in bed, feeling the cold wind touching her face. The loneliness and fear made her lie stiff for a while, and then she plucked up the courage to start calling her boyfriend's name softly.
On a dark winter night, accompanied by the whining wind, a woman's voice slowly called out to her sweetheart. This scene was no different from a ghost movie, but it scared her first and she immediately fell silent.
However, at this time, a voice came from the darkness and began to respond to her call. First there was the sound of the door squeaking, then the sound of the door being locked, and then - the sound of footsteps.
One step, one step, one step -
One side of the bed felt like it was sinking downwards. Someone was sitting on the edge of the bed, but he didn't speak.
"Is that you?" the girl asked breathlessly.
The person beside the bed did not answer, but made a squeaking sound, as if he twisted his body, and then with a 'pop' sound, a small cluster of firelight lit up, and behind the firelight was the boy's face.
He looked at the girl steadily, his face looking uncertain in the flickering light of the fire, and a bit gray and ferocious.
But the girl finally felt a little relieved when she saw her lover's face, so after the fire went out, she couldn't help complaining: "You didn't say anything, you scared me to death, I thought you were gone."
The boy still didn't speak, and just got into the quilt.
Immediately, the girl felt the chill outside rush in, making her shiver. "Did you find anything?" she asked, feeling that her boyfriend was a little weird.
Silence.
The girl was a little annoyed when her boyfriend kept silent. Just when she was about to say something, a hand suddenly crossed under the quilt and began to caress her body roughly.
"Don't-"
Before she finished speaking, a thought in her mind made all the hairs on her body stand up - the touch of this hand could not be clearer to her, it was dry, rough, cold and stiff -
She screamed and pushed the strange hand away with all her strength, but nothing touched the tentacles, as if they were traveling through the air.
"You brought him in!" She yelled uncontrollably and tried to get up, but found that she was being held down and couldn't move at all.
‘Pa’, the cluster of fire light lit up again, still illuminating the boy’s face. But this time the girl felt something was wrong.
The firelight was not emitted by a lighter at all, but emitted a faint blue light, flickering strangely. It did not have the warmth that fire should have, but instead felt cold and whooshing.
And the most important thing is - there is no 'lighter' in one hand, the fire appears out of thin air!
"Isn't it me?" The boy finally spoke. Although his voice was the same, his tone was very stiff.
The girl was frightened and wanted to jump up, but she was still unable to move. She could only look closely at her boyfriend's turned head, facing her in a pure ninety-degree posture that was impossible for humans.
"The light is broken." She was so frightened that she could hardly speak. She could only murmur in a small voice. Even she didn't know what she said, "I don't want to come here again."
"How about that? If you don't come, I can't get you," the boy continued, "If you like the light, I can give it to you." As soon as he finished speaking, the wall lamp turned on again.
The flash of light made the girl feel dazzling, and she closed her eyes. When she opened her eyes again, she saw the boy's head lying sideways on the pillow, with the quilt covering his chin. He stared at her with a pair of eyes, which looked weird and eerie because his eyes were unblinking. Moreover, there are no ups and downs that the human body should have under the quilt!
Subconsciously, she opened the quilt violently. And something under the quilt made her let out a scream that shook the night!
&&&&&&
The next day, everyone on Ronghua Road was talking about the murder in the love hotel, because the scream in the middle of the night scared everyone nearby who was sleeping, and the ensuing sirens made people aware Something serious must have happened, so I boldly ran out on a cold winter night to find out what was going on.
Needless to mention how frustrated Lazy San was.
The hotel owner is afraid that this will seriously affect his business. How could this unfortunate thing happen to him? He was frightened and puzzled.
He was sleeping soundly at the time, and he heard something strange in his trance, but he didn't pay attention to it. It was only when the scream passed through the thick wooden door of the basement and reached his room in the attic that he suddenly I woke up with a start and immediately realized that something was wrong.
He put on clothes randomly and ran out barefoot. After confirming that the scream came from the basement, he comforted the tenants who had been awakened and went to the place where the noise was made with a few bold male tenants.
"The girl must be having a nightmare, she looks timid." He told the male tenants his theory, but he actually wanted to convince himself, because the further down he went, The more uneasy he became, but as the owner here he had to bite the bullet and go see what was going on, "I guess her boyfriend is hugging her to comfort her. Maybe we can see a **** scene!"
"Yeah, maybe they won't open the door!" Only one tenant answered him, but his voice was a little trembling, and he obviously didn't believe it.
Lazy San didn't know what to say, so he hummed twice in reply, walked through the living room on the first floor, and turned into the passage leading to the basement.
As soon as he entered the passage, a strong smell of blood hit his nostrils.
Later Lansan thought about what happened that night and thought that if he could think about it, he might not have gone in and would not be so scared. But almost subconsciously at the time, he walked in hesitantly, half curious and half scared, and the few people followed him in the same state.
He was holding an extra-large flashlight that could shine twenty meters ahead, so as soon as he entered the passage, he saw a person lying on the ground with his head facing in.
The light of the flashlight moved inwards inch by inch, allowing Lazy San to slowly see the outline of the person lying on the ground. It was a man, and he could tell from his clothing that he was the boy who lived in the basement. However, he had no way of confirming it because the man had no head.
At that time, he screamed in embarrassment, and his voice was more frightening than the female voice that screamed just now. Always timid, he was so frightened that he peed his pants on the spot and couldn't even run away. He was rescued by a calm tenant.
After calling the police, he was still frightened. When the police inspected the scene and asked him questions, he could not even answer normally.
But he knew that the door was locked inside and the police had to break in. On the bed in the room, the girl was lying naked on the bed, with bruises and bruises all over her body.
It is said that it is a handprint, but I cannot be sure because it is shorter than a normal person's handprint and has an extremely irregular shape, like the claws of an animal or the hand of a child with a hand disability.
Beside the girl, the quilt was huddled in a ball. The police guessed that the head of the headless man outside was underneath, so they carefully lifted the quilt.
The situation was consistent with their guess, but what was weird was that there was a wooden stick stuck under his neck, like a fish that had only its head and spine left!
The wooden stick was later confirmed to be the mop stick that Sister Wang usually used for hygiene.
Lan San was told not to reveal what he knew about the situation at the scene. In fact, he would not do that because he was scared just thinking about it, so he dared not speak out, and he did not know the details.
In fact, this seems to be another secret room murder case.
The door was locked from behind, and it was an old-fashioned deadbolt lock, which made it difficult for the police to rush in. An autopsy revealed that the female corpse had had sexual **** before her death, but there was no sign of rape. She died of excessive shock and suffocation, but the numerous bruises on her body were unexplained.
The death of the headless male corpse was even more bizarre. There was no obvious trauma. It seemed as if someone had cut off the head suddenly. The blade was flat and straight. It was obvious that it was all done with one knife. What kind of arm strength and speed. The victim showed no signs of struggle or resistance, which is unbelievable for a tall young man unless he was also extremely frightened. Moreover, the murder weapon was confirmed to be a small switchblade with only the victim's fingerprints on it.
From the situation at the scene, it can be inferred that the deceased man must have heard something and came out to check, but was killed on the spot. The murderer then entered the room, locked the door, and killed the girl. The girl did not scream at that time, which shows that the murderer did not make any noise when he killed the male victim.
But how did he escape in the secret room?
The skylight was too small and could only pass through the body of a seven or eight-year-old child. In addition to the bruises on the female body, it seemed that it was a child or a dwarf who had done it. Let’s not talk about how a person with such a figure can have such courage and strength. The thick dust on the skylight can prove that it has not been opened.
And this case is so cruel and perverted, what is the motive?
Is this a locked room murder case? Who has this ability? Is it an unknown beast? But the beast does not have such intelligence and abnormal behavior. This mystery puzzles everyone who knows the inside story.
Due to the suspense and lack of clues about the case, Lazy San’s love hotel was closed for a week. In fact, even if the business is not closed, no one would dare to come and stay. Even Lansan would stay at a friend's house.
A week later, he gritted his teeth and returned to his small mansion. When he was worried about being alone without company, he found Sister Wang waiting for him. He was overjoyed at the time, knowing that this was the plight of the poor. It was useless to be afraid. If he did not earn any money for a day, he might not have anything to eat for a day. Especially superborn guerrillas like Sister Wang had no right to be afraid.
He generously opened a room on the third floor for Sister Wang and refused to let her sleep in the basement. In fact, this room was closest to his attic, so he felt more at ease having someone to accompany him.
When he and Sister Wang walked out of the small building without incident the next day, it was a live advertisement for their hotel. It was just a murder, not a haunting. It's over, but it's still the same as before!
This is his message.
Sure enough, in the next two days, young lovers who couldn't help but miss each other came to his hotel. Although the occupancy rate was half less than before, and no one asked for a room on the first floor, he was still very happy. After all, He started making his money again.
That day, he came back from drinking outside and just climbed up to the third floor, when he happened to see a young man and woman leaving the door. He knew that the murder still had an impact. Many lovers came during the day and left at night.
"Are you leaving? Come back next time." He greeted politely and swayed out of the way, but the couple ignored him and went downstairs.
"This crazy money man, house prices have risen so much." The girl cursed.
The boy didn't speak, and he felt a little worried about the money. He is a poor student, but he has to endure this petty man's casual drive-up of house prices just to meet his girlfriend. It is simply blackmail. I really hope I can take revenge on him!
Just as they were thinking about it, they walked to the first floor and saw a lot of banknotes scattered on the ground. The sheer number of them shocked them.
The boss must have accidentally dropped it on the ground when he was drunk!
The two thought this at the same time and looked at each other. I saw the money spread out on the ground, blown everywhere by the wind that blew in from the unclosed window.
"If you don't take it, it's free!" The two of them said in unison, and then they went to pick up the hundred-dollar bills. They didn't want to leave any of them behind. The more they picked up, the happier they were. They didn't even realize that the money was scattered from the stairs to the corner of the basement. .
Moreover, if anyone else passes by at this time, they will see that all the coins on the ground are ghost coins!
