ghost oath

Mo Chuan didn't have time to complain too much, it was getting dark quickly, and after a while, there was only a sliver of sunset light left, Bai Sujin looked at the sky, and said in a deep voice: "We have to speed up, it's not safe to stay outside at night, we Get back to the hotel as soon as possible."

Mo Chuan responded, followed Bai Sujin for two steps, and suddenly realized, "Why did those people follow us just now? And those who were hiding in the house..."

Although the pace was fast, Bai Sujin's breathing was not disturbed at all, and she said steadily: "The cemetery in Moqi Village is a restricted area for foreigners. Even if we don't leave by ourselves, those people will expel us. The ones in the house are produced by returning souls." s things……"

"They are?" Mo Chuan's eyes widened in surprise, and he thought of those cold and sticky eyes hidden behind the curtains, which did not seem to be alive, "Then if Mo Ying is reborn, he will also be that Looks like it?"

"He won't," Bai Sujin glanced at him, "The Mo family's rebirth is very complete, the reborn person is no different from a normal person, even the body shape will gradually return to its original appearance. The things around Moqi Village are actually defective products, unable to see the sun, and not fully sane, so they cannot be counted as human beings."

"This kind of returning soul is meaningless at all, isn't it?" Mo Chuan was a little hard to understand, "Why do these people still do this?"

"People's obsessions will never change." Bai Sujin's words were somewhat obscure, "Sometimes, even if only a monster is summoned back, there will be people who are willing to give everything they have."

While walking quickly, Mo Chuan was distracted, silently looking at Bai Sujin's handsome side face.I thought the same in my heart, if one day Bai Sujin disappeared from this world, even if I gave up everything, I would let him return to the world... Even if it takes a huge price, even if I have to be criticized by everyone, even... ...In the end, all I got was a monster that couldn't be considered human...

"Stop!" Mo Chuan was distracted when he suddenly heard Bai Sujin's body tense up and let out a low shout.

He followed the other person's gaze, just in time to see a dark figure, barely disappearing around the corner of the alley.

"Chasing!" Bai Sujin gave him a hand, and the two rushed out one after the other.

The speed of that figure was very fast, vague and erratic, but judging from the figure, it seemed to be a man.Mo Chuan chased after him desperately, but still couldn't catch up. Bai Sujin narrowly fell behind him, and the two of them turned into another alley, one behind the other.

Mo Chuan's physical fitness is already very good, and his motor nerves are also very developed. He seldom misses chasing prisoners on the street, but he didn't expect this guy to be so good at running. After running for a while, his chest felt tight, but He didn't dare to stop, it was a trivial matter to lose that black shadow, and when he thought that Bai Sujin would disappear from his sight again, his legs continued to move forward uncontrollably.

Turning another corner, the eyes suddenly opened up, and after a few more steps, he was on the main road. He could see pedestrians walking in twos and threes. Bai Sujin stood at the exit of the alley with his back turned to him.

Mo Chuan breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't move anymore. Ordinary running was fine, but desperate running was not. He propped his hands on his knees, panting heavily.

Bai Sujin turned around, walked to him, and stretched out her hand to support him, "If you can't catch up, then you don't have to work so hard, I will go back and find you."

"I...I don't worry about you!" Mo Chuan waved his hand, panting.

Bai Sujin looked at Mo Chuan with flushed cheeks, was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled. This time, the soft smile finally reached his eyes. He held Mo Chuan's hand and said in a low voice: "I won't leave, no sooner said than done."

Bai Sujin's gaze was too focused, and Mo Chuan's face was burning hot. He was a little embarrassed, turned his head away, and said vaguely: "It's best to be like this..."

He took a peek at Bai Sujin, and found that he seemed to want to say something, so he quickly stretched out his hand to stop him, "Well, where was that person just now?"

Hearing his words, Bai Sujin straightened her face, "If I didn't catch up, I won't be able to find it if I get mixed in with the crowd."

"Hmm..." Mo Chuan thought for a while, touched his chin and said, "I always feel that he is the man in black who talked to me that morning..."

"Talk to me?" Bai Sujin looked at him vigilantly, "What's going on?"

"It's just..." Mo Chuan told him what happened that morning.

Bai Sujin thought for a while, and finally guessed: "The person talking to you is probably not a human being."

"Damn it," Mo Chuan laughed, "If it's not a human being, then it could be..."

He suddenly guessed what Bai Sujin meant, and opened his mouth in surprise, "You mean, who is he?"

"Well, that's the one." Bai Sujin said solemnly.

Mo Chuan broke down a bit, grabbed his hair and said, "Then how will I solve the case! If the murderer is a ghost, how will I solve the case!"

"He's not a murderer." There was a smile in Bai Sujin's voice, "Ghosts don't have the power to kill directly, only humans have the ability to kill."

"But, this is unscientific..." Mo Chuan felt something was wrong, "That Su Ruxu almost killed me at that time..."

"Su Ruxu is not a ghost. She is a special existence formed by Wu Haoyan's obsession. She possesses many powers endowed to her by humans. As for the one just now," Bai Sujin pointed to the outside of the alley, "it's just an ordinary soul without much resentment."

"But I suspect that he assisted the murderer, otherwise there would be no clues at the crime scene." Bai Sujin frowned, "We still have to find a way to find the murderer."

"Well, I can still accept this..." Mo Chuan reluctantly said, this kind of mysterious feeling is almost the opening of the so-called new world...

"We're almost done looking, and we haven't seen Wang Bin's shadow yet. Let's go back first, maybe there will be clues from Li Xiao." Bai Sujin looked up at the sky, it was completely dark, and began to urge Mo Chuan go back.

"Okay, let's go back."

Baiping Town is still the same as the previous few days. Once night falls, it is eerily quiet. Looking at the houses on both sides of the street, Mo Chuan always feels that the atmosphere is a little weird, like the calm before the storm, and a catastrophe is brewing.Mo Chuan counted the days in his mind, today is the third day, and there are still four days before the seventh day, not to mention that Bai Sujin will definitely stay until the seventh day, just because the road is impassable, in this town, No one can leave.But if the seventh day is really dangerous, should we plan ahead, at least to ensure the safety of Li Xiao and the others...

After thinking about it, the hotel arrived, and Li Xiao came back a long time ago, squatting at the door waiting for them. Seeing them coming, he patted his buttocks, stood up, and greeted them.

"I didn't find Wang Bin there, how about you?" Li Xiao asked straight away with a cigarette in his mouth.

"Nor do we." Mo Chuan replied, frowning.

It was already night, and Wang Bin was still missing. His intuition told him that Wang Bin was probably in danger.

"How about the others?"

"It's all right, but Lao Huang left first, saying that something happened at home." Li Xiao looked back, and the boss was dozing off at the front desk.

"He's quite busy..." Mo Chuan was a little speechless.

"Mo Chuan, can you take me to see the body of the deceased?" Bai Sujin interrupted the two of them suddenly, "Maybe I can help."

"Ah, yes! You're half-professional." Mo Chuan remembered that there was still such a thing, so he asked Li Xiao to wait at the door to see if Wang Bin would come back by himself later, and then brought Bai Sujin in.

Immediately when he walked up to the stairs, Bai Sujin looked back, in the thicker darkness, the cigarette butt dangling from Li Xiao's mouth was flickering on and off, flashing dark red light spots, the darkness swallowed everything arrogantly, and gradually engulfed him. cover……

Up to the second floor, Mu Yi's body was still parked in his room. In the middle of the second floor, Mo Chuan led Bai Sujin there. When he reached the door, Bai Sujin looked towards the innermost room.

"Who lives in the innermost?" Bai Sujin asked suddenly.

"Ah," Mo Chuan thought for a while, "It should be Wang Bin..."

"Can you open the door of this room?" Hearing his answer, Bai Sujin walked straight over.

"I don't have the key here, you want to open it?" Mo Chuan watched his actions, and suddenly reacted, "Do you suspect that Wang Bin is in the room?"

"It's impossible. If he returns to his room, someone will definitely see him!" Mo Chuan found it unbelievable.

"Go get the key, open this place, and you will know." Bai Sujin rubbed the door lock, ignoring Mo Chuan's surprise.

"Okay, I'll go right away." Although Mo Chuan thought it was unlikely, but things had developed to the present, and many things could no longer be measured by common sense. He ran downstairs and brought the keys after a while.

Seeing Mo Chuan in a hurry, the shop owner was also nervous, and followed Mo Chuan up with a disturbed expression.

Bai Sujin inserted the key in and turned the door twice before opening the door. He and Mo Chuan looked at each other—it was locked.

Bai Sujin directly pushed the door open, the curtains of the room were drawn tightly, it was so dark that she couldn't see clearly, Bai Sujin turned on the light, and glanced around, there was no one, the bed and the floor were clean, even a bit tidy unusual.When Mo Chuan saw this, his heart tightened. This scene was very similar to Mu Yi's room.

Bai Sujin stopped paying attention to the empty room, but stared at the bathroom with the door tightly closed, signaling Mo Chuan and the boss to keep quiet.Everyone quieted down, Mo Chuan subconsciously breathed lightly, and the room was silent. Suddenly, he heard the faint sound of water coming from the bathroom.

Bai Sujin slowly pushed open the door of the bathroom, turned on the light, the small light bulb squeaked a few times, and finally turned on. Under the dim light, the pink liquid dripped down the edge of the bathtub, forming a pattern on the ground. A puddle of translucent water.Pale fingers floated on the water, and the fingertips that had lost their color did not look like real people, but more like plastic dolls, stiff and lifeless.Mo Chuan took a step forward, and the faint smell of blood hit the tip of his nose, making his stomach churn. Wang Bin's face was soaked in blood, looking a little hideous.Compared with the empty and clean outside, this bathtub is more like a dirty burial ground.

Wang Bin was indeed in his room, but he had stopped breathing.

"What's the matter——" Li Xiao might have been standing downstairs, saw the light in Wang Bin's room turned on, and hurried up, asking loudly as he walked, until he stood next to Mo Chuan, the words stopped abruptly .

His expression was a little dazed, and there was a momentary twist on his face. The expression mixed with shock and pleasure made his expression very strange.Bai Sujin seemed to feel something, and glanced at him indifferently.

Although he has seen the death scene many times with his own eyes, Mo Chuan still feels uncomfortable every time he sees such a scene. During the investigation of the case, the deceased kept appearing, which in itself is the biggest mockery of the police. Wu Haoyan's The case is like this, and this time it's still like this. Although he has prepared a little bit, he still feels guilty.

The bounden duty of the police is probably protection. Unlike Bai Sujin's protection of him, his protection object may be anyone, no matter good or evil, it is an unconditional responsibility.Bai Sujin once asked him, if he was no longer a policeman, would he still be saddened by his own helplessness? Mo Chuan looked at the bathtub full of blood in front of him, and Wang Bin who had already lost his breath inside, and secretly clenched his fists , if Bai Sujin asked this question again, he would probably be able to give the answer.As early as a long time ago, those unknown things, maybe a sense of responsibility, or something else, have already been deeply imprinted into his bones, whether the source is the profession of the police, or his nature, it is not important anymore, Because no matter what, he will still be sad, still feel guilty, and still feel heartbroken at the loss of life and his own powerlessness.
