When Zhong Qiang woke up, the voice calling him was still faintly ringing in his ears. Other than him, perhaps no one else would hear that voice.
He remembered that when he was doing his homework, he suddenly felt tired. When he thought of that strange building manager, he went to the kitchen window and looked out like he was looking at his favorite toy in the window.
Suddenly, a figure fell from the sky. The sound was a little muffled, but it made him shiver.
He had a feeling that it was a person.
Zhong Qiang didn't know why he thought so. He probably hoped that something would fall from the sky, but he didn't expect it to be a person.
All was silent. His father had gone to the police station to work all night again. Zhong Qiang suddenly felt afraid. The voice made him feel fear everywhere. Even if he covered his ears, he could still hear it.
He looked at the ground in horror. It did not seem like an underground ghost was speaking.
His eyes widened. Was it Little Lin?
Zhong Qiang got out of bed and opened the door in the middle of the night.
The voice was like a snake coiling in the corridor. Zhong Qiang blinked, looked upstairs, and then walked up carefully.
He could tell that the voice came from upstairs.
There was another voice telling him not to go up. It sounded like his father's voice, but he was not at home. How could he talk to him?
Zhong Qiang looked behind him hesitantly and stopped.
He was now at the corner of the first and second floor. He saw that it was pitch-black outside the building. Some strange shadows were projected on the other side of the building door. It was the deformed body of the building leader, and it seemed to be walking towards him.
Zhong Qiang widened his eyes and immediately ran up to the second floor. He looked behind him nervously, worried that the shadow would really catch up with him.
Fortunately, nothing happened.
He slowly walked up to the fifth floor and stood in front of Number 13.
Zhong Qiang suddenly felt a wave of fear. The last time he saw Xiao Lin here, he still remembered that pair of strange-looking shoes.
Xiao Lin would definitely come again!
Zhong Qiang stood still and waited for a long time. The corridor was eerily quiet. He suddenly wanted to continue walking up to the sixth floor. After a few steps, he heard someone's voice behind him.
Zhong Qiang immediately turned around and saw two shadows, one tall and one short, as if they had come out of the wall.
He could tell that the short person was Fang Lin.?
"Little Lin." Zhong Qiang said in a trembling voice. He felt nervous for no reason.
Who was the person beside Xiao Lin?
"Hehe." A series of eerie laughter came from the tall shadow.
Zhong Qiang took a few steps back, and a rotten smell caught up to him.
Zhong Qiang was about to run downstairs when the fierce voice said to him,""You can't run away."
A gust of cold wind blew from behind him. Zhong Qiang suddenly thought of his father. When the outline of Zhong Shu appeared in front of his eyes, he felt a chill behind his head. Darkness attacked him like a wall.
Wu Tong hesitated for a long time before he finally made up his mind to call Li Tong's parents and tell them about her daughter's disappearance.
When the two elders heard that their precious daughter was missing, they cried over the phone, which made Wu Tongxin feel like he was being stabbed.
On the afternoon of the second day after the discovery of the building leader's body, the two elders rushed over.
As soon as she entered, Mrs. Li asked Wu Tong with tears in her eyes,"Where did Little Tong go?"
Wu Tong felt very uncomfortable and could only lower his head in silence.
Mr. Li was more understanding and polite. Seeing that Wu Tong was in low spirits, he quickly persuaded his wife to move to the side. However, tears were still in his eyes. It was heartbreaking to see him.
"It's all my fault. If I didn't investigate the case, she wouldn't have gone missing.”Wu Tong said to the two elders with a sobbing tone.
"Did you call the police?" Mr. Li asked.
"I called the police, but there's still no news of her.”
Mr. Li patted him and sighed.
The door slowly opened, and Wu Tong saw a pair of feet. He looked up and saw the dress, and then a face covered in blood.
"Little Tong!" He shouted, but no matter how hard he tried, his throat felt like it was blocked and he couldn't make a sound.
Li Tong stared at him blankly as if she didn't know him, making him feel a chill. He tried to shout, but he still couldn't make a sound.
Li Tong smiled at him. Wu Tong then realized that she was covered in something dirty, like animal feces.
Suddenly, Wu Tong struggled to sit up from the bed. He first looked at the door but did not see her.
So it was just a dream.
Outside the window, it was already dawn.
Mrs. Li, who was temporarily staying at Wu Tong's house, walked in. Seeing that Wu Tong's expression was not good, she sighed." Did you have a nightmare last night?”
"No." Wu Tong's gaze was wavering, as if he was avoiding something.
Wu Tong thought about what had happened recently and felt mentally and physically exhausted.
He got out of bed and rushed to the bathroom to wash his face. When he came out again, he saw the bungalow where the building manager lived and felt a wave of panic in his heart.
He had clearly seen the building manager that afternoon, but who knew that he would have already died by then?
Wu Tong walked out and looked upstairs.
Last night, when he came down from the roof with Captain Pang and Zhong Shu, he clearly heard someone talking in Room 13 on the fifth floor, but the old man said that there was no one in the room.
Wu Tong went upstairs again and stood in front of room 13 for a while. For some reason, he thought of Li Tong. He couldn't help but lower his head, feeling guilty.
He looked up and continued to walk upstairs.
After passing through the gate that looked like the entrance to hell, his eyes were bright, but his heart was even more depressed.
Suddenly, Wu Tong saw a person lying in a corner of the rooftop. He walked over and saw that it was Zhong Qiang.
Zhong Qiang's face looked very peaceful, like a naughty child who had sneaked up and was taking a nap after being exhausted. However, his body posture was very strange, as if he had been attacked by bad people.
Wu Tong checked Zhong Qiang's breathing and found that he was barely breathing. He hurriedly carried Zhong Qiang and quickly went downstairs to the hospital.
After the doctor's examination, Zhong Qiang was fine. He had only suffered a blow to his head and was temporarily unconscious.
Wu Tong was frightened. He hurriedly called Zhong Shu and stayed in the hospital to guard him.
Not long after, Zhong Qiang woke up. He opened his eyes in confusion and looked around. For a moment, he did not know what had happened.
"Cockroach, you're awake." Wu Tong looked very excited.
"Uncle Wu, where are we?" Zhong Qiang's voice was very weak.
"This is the hospital."
"Hospital?" Zhong Qiang didn't seem to know what had happened to him. He was thinking in pain, as if he was trying to recall what had happened last night.
"Cockroach, why are you lying on the rooftop? That's very dangerous!"
" I don't know," Zhong Qiang mumbled." I don't know anything after I saw Xiao Lin."”
"Little Lin?" Wu Tong didn't know who he was talking about, so he was confused.
" That's my primary school classmate."
"Is it Fang Lin?" Wu Tong immediately thought of the child who had been missing for half a year.
"Yes."
Wu Tong suddenly opened his eyes wide and asked anxiously,""Is he still alive?"
"I don't know," Zhong Qiang said uncertainly."He might be dead."”
Wu Tong shuddered when he heard this from a ten-year-old child. He didn't know how to continue.
Outside the window, the sky was clear, but Wu Tong couldn't be happy.
After some time, the door was pushed open.
"Cockroach!"
Wu Tong turned around and saw Zhong Shu's anxious face at the door.
The air became even more heavy and suffocating. Zhong Shu felt a chill run down his spine. He did not know who he had offended to be so cruel to a child.
Zhong Qiang had been discharged from the hospital. The doctor said that there was no problem and that he would be fine after resting at home for a few days. At this moment, he was sleeping peacefully.
Zhong Shu draped a thin blanket over him and walked out of the house.
Zhong Shu saw the human figure drawn on the ground with a white line at a glance. That was the place where the building master had landed. That human figure looked as if it would stand up at any moment.
Zhong Shu raised his head and looked at the roof. That should be the place where the building leader had jumped down. However, when he jumped down, he was already a dead man. This was too ridiculous.
At this moment, he heard someone behind him. It was Wu Tong.
"Did you really see the director yesterday afternoon?”
Wu Tong replied," I really saw him."”
"What is he doing?"
"At that time, he was wearing black clothes and was walking towards the room.”Wu Tong suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked at Zhong Shu.
Lou Chang was wearing black clothes. Didn't this already prove that he was a ghost?
Zhong Shu was also very surprised, but he did not say anything.
"Where's Cockroach?"
"She fell asleep."
"Poor child." Wu Tong said softly.
Zhong Shu didn't seem to hear him. He walked into the building with a bitter face. He stared at the stairs in a daze and slowly walked up.
Wu Tong looked at his back in a daze and suddenly felt a little sour in his heart.
The corridor was gloomy. Behind the three iron doors on each floor, it was always quiet.
When he reached the fifth floor, Zhong Shu suddenly stopped and turned to look at Room 13.
He didn't know why he was standing there. There seemed to be some noise inside the door that attracted his attention.
"Last night, I heard someone talking behind the door. I keep feeling that this place is a little strange.”Wu Tong followed him and stared at the door with narrowed eyes.
Zhong Shu glanced at him and continued to walk up. When he reached the roof, his entire body trembled violently. The temperature seemed to be a little cold.
The door leading to the roof was ajar, and the wind blew against it from time to time.
Zhong Shu walked up to the roof and immediately felt that the wind had become much stronger, blowing his hair into the air like the fingers of a group of demons.
He came to the rooftop near the north side of the building, where the head of the building had jumped down.
He took a closer look and saw that there was no trace left on the platform.
Perhaps there wouldn't be any traces left. This was a suicide, not a murder. Of course, there wouldn't be any traces of blood.
However, Zhong Shu was still unwilling to give up. He had a faint feeling that there must be a black hand manipulating the whole thing from behind, and Lou Zhang was like a puppet being manipulated by someone.
"Did you check Room 13 yesterday?”Wu Tong suddenly asked.
Zhong Shu looked at him strangely." Of course I've checked.”
"And the result?"
"No one has lived here for a long time.”Zhong Shu said coldly.
Hearing Wu Tong's question, he suddenly remembered the situation last night. At that time, they heard an old man living on the fourth floor say that Room 13 was empty.
Are you sure there's something strange there?" Zhong Shu asked.
Wu Tong nodded affirmatively." The head of the building is already dead. How could a dead person jump off a building? If it wasn't thrown from the roof, then it must have been thrown out of the window of a house.”
Zhong Shu nodded thoughtfully." But why did that person do that?”
"He probably has some psychological problems."
Wu Tong's words suddenly reminded Zhong Shu of his son. When he went to see a psychiatrist, he had always thought that his son did not have any mental illness, but now that he thought about it, he could not help but feel a little afraid.
Zhong Shu remembered that from the time he saw the building manager lying on the ground until his colleagues came to investigate, no one had left. This meant that the murderer was still hiding in the building. Judging from the place where the building manager landed, the murderer was undoubtedly hiding in the room on the right side of the entrance. Only rooms one, four, seven, ten, thirteen, and sixteen and seven places on the roof were the most suspicious. However, they had checked all six rooms from the first floor to the sixth floor. These six rooms had long been empty, and there were no clues on the roof.
The final conclusion was that a dead person jumped off a building and experienced a second death.
Li Tong woke up in a daze again and found that her neck was a little stiff. Her nostrils were still filled with an endless rancid smell, and her internal organs seemed to be twitching in pain.
Her eyes and mouth were still covered with cloth. She felt like a blind and mute person. Her eyes were always dark and she could not tell if it was day or night.
Only hell is dark!
Li Tong was on the verge of breaking down. Every time she moved, she would hear the sound of bones cracking.
The fragrance of food wafted into her nose. The person first untied the cloth that bound her hands, then tore off the cloth over her eyes and mouth. He lowered his voice and fiercely ordered her not to scream, or else she would die.
Li Tong didn't call out. She couldn't open her eyes for a while. After a long time, she saw that her surroundings were pitch black. An inky figure stood in front of her and threw two things at the same time. A fragrance filled the air. She took a closer look and saw that it was a lunchbox.
"Hurry up and eat." The shadow ordered.
At this moment, she felt very hungry. Even though the stench around her was soaring, she could not care less. There was only the fragrance in her nose.
Soon, she wolfed down her meal.
"I still want to relieve myself."
Li Tong couldn't remember how long it had been since she last went to the bathroom. All the functions in her body seemed to be stagnant and rusted in the dark.
"Hurry up, it's so troublesome." The shadow mumbled.
She struggled to stand up and walked in a direction.
This was a very spacious place. There were no windows, and everything was dark. One could vaguely see some sacks and hay piled on the ground.
She felt that her feet were stepping on something soft like a steamed bun.
She suddenly smelled a strong stench rising from the ground. She screamed and jumped away.
It was a rotten leg of some unknown animal!
"Don't shout!" In the darkness, the shadow's voice was as stiff as a stone.
Finally, she found a flat place. After she finished using the toilet, she stood up and looked around, trying to escape.
However, the darkness was like a pool of muddy water, and nothing could be seen clearly.
Suddenly, she felt a gust of cold air blowing from the back of her neck. Even though it was a hot day, it still made her feel a bone-piercing chill.
"Don't even think about running away.”the shadow said from behind her.
"Help!" She shouted desperately.
"Hehe, go ahead. There's no one around, so no one will hear you.”
Li Tong felt a pain in her arm. The shadow dragged her back to her original position, tied her hands again, and covered her eyes and mouth.
She fell into darkness again.
After an unknown period of time, a rumbling sound pierced through the air from somewhere. She suddenly shivered and turned her head to look in that direction, but she could not see anything.
In the darkness, a yellow beam of light flashed across the cloth covering her eyes. It was the light of a flashlight.
"Get in!" A fierce voice commanded. It was the voice of the shadow from before.
There was the sound of a bolt being pulled and then closed again, and then she heard a flurry of footsteps approaching her.
She felt a wave of fear and did not know what the person who came in wanted to do.
She heard heavy breathing not far away from her. The shadow was tying the person to a wooden stake and left a last sentence,"Behave yourself!"
The shadow was gone, and so was the light. The world was once again dominated by darkness.
Li Tong looked in the direction of the door in fear.
Who was the person who was pushed in?
She heard panting, and not far in front of her, a rotten smell assailed her nose. She struggled desperately and screamed in despair, but the annoying cloth blocked her voice. She could only make a "wu wu" sound.
"Who are you?" Li Tong screamed in horror, but her voice was unclear.
I'm…Fang Lin."
Li Tong felt terrified. Wu Tong had told her that Fang Lin had been missing for more than half a year. Now, the child who had been missing for more than half a year was talking to her.?
Is he human or ghost?#
