Chapter 4 Tomato Juice That Can't Be Drunk 3
Jiang Xu quickly got out of bed, didn't even bother to put on his shoes, he leaned half on the door, looking outside through the peephole.
Someone walked over, very fast, but he still saw clearly.
It's Mary.
"What did you see?" Ji Huai didn't know when he woke up, standing beside Jiang Xu.
"Mary." Jiang Xu replied.
Jiang Xu watched for a while, and there was no one outside the door, and there was no movement from the next door.The two retreated to the side of the bed.
"What's with that scream?" Ji Huai asked softly.
The room didn't turn on the lights, just sitting and talking in the dark, Jiang Xu said: "The girl's voice sounds like Xiao Min's, but the boy's voice is not sure."
There are too many men among them, and there is little communication. He is not sure who it is. At this point in time, don't raise the door to check the situation. Just living in this castle is scary enough.
There was a moment of silence, and the two did not speak again.Similarly, sitting still can't think of anything.
"Sleep." Jiang Xu lay down and got into bed again.
Ji Huai scratched his hair and lay down again. Not long after, he heard Ji Huai's snoring.
I'm really envious, this person can still sleep so soundly in this environment.Jiang Xu fell asleep half-awake and half-drowsy in the middle of the night, he was always vigilant and didn't dare to fall into a deep sleep.
When the sky was getting brighter, he couldn't fall asleep at all, and sat half-sitting against the head of the bed. It wasn't until the noisy voices came from the corridor that Ji Huai moved his body and woke up from his dream.
"Go out and have a look, it's dawn." Jiang Xu has already put on his clothes.
Ji Huai followed him out in a daze, but Jiang Xu stood still.
"Why don't you... hiss—" Ji Huai gasped, grabbed Jiang Xu's shoulder and hid behind him.
There was a long streak of blood on the floor of the long corridor leading to the end of the corridor. From the surface, it should have been dragged and flowed out when the wound was not healed.
The blood had dried and turned black.
Jiang Xu walked sideways along the clean side of the corridor.
"Mary should have done it." Jiang Xu said.
"What did you see her doing last night?" Ji Huai pointed to the blood on the ground.
"I don't know, she moves very fast, like a normal person running, and she can't see clearly at all."
Many people gathered in the corridor, everyone gathered around the door of the two rooms, Jiang Xu walked into Xiao Min's room first.
When he saw Xiao Min, he breathed a sigh of relief. At least she was fine, but things did not go well. The pink-haired girl in the same room as her was nowhere to be found, and the blood was spreading from the pink-haired girl's bed. , There is also a mirror by the bed.
Jiang Xu took a closer look, it was just an ordinary mirror, it looked the same as usual, if there was anything different, that is, the four sides were inlaid with metal patterns, it looked more gorgeous than ordinary mirrors.
Xiao Min squatted in a corner of the room, and Li Ziyao was comforting her.
Jiang Xu doesn't know how to comfort others, so he directly asks, "What happened last night?"
"I, I don't know, I don't know anything." Xiao Min just shook her head desperately, her teeth chattered up and down, and the tears that had been suppressed flowed down again in an instant.
Li Ziyao said: "We asked her just now, and she only said that she heard something in the middle of the night, and when she woke up, she saw the scene like this, and then she fainted from fright."
"Didn't you see anything else?"
Xiao Min stopped talking, just hugged her knees and shook her head.
Looking at it like this, I can't ask anything.
"Do you want to go to the next door to see? The old man was also involved." Ji Huai patted Jiang Xu.
Jiang Xu didn't hesitate to go to the next door with Ji Huai. Like the pink-haired girl, the deceased was nowhere to be seen. A clean mirror was left at the head of the bed. The blood on the bed sheet flowed down the end of the bed. It can be said that blood flowed like a river.
Fatty Wang Min was not much better than Xiao Min, and he was probably scared to death. He fainted or not, but he didn't know how he passed the second half of the night.
"I saw Mary dragging the uncle away last night. After the door was closed, it couldn't be opened until dawn."
That's what the fat man said.
Jiang Xu could imagine what kind of scene it was, but Wang Min didn't describe it much, and he didn't want to recall it.
"It's really Mary." Ji Huai leaned against the door.
"Did you see Mary last night?" Li Ziyao asked.
"Yeah." Jiang Xu recounted the situation again, "I saw it through the cat's eye."
"Then she killed it?" Zhang He's tone was agitated, and he looked distraught, Jiang Xu knew that he was actually afraid, and just used other emotions to cover it up.
"It's breakfast time, everyone go down to eat, hee hee."
Everyone looked up at the same time, and it was Mary who was standing behind them without anyone noticing.Zhang He felt his scalp go numb for a while, and he didn't know if he heard what he just said.
After Mary finished speaking, she turned around and went downstairs without stopping for a moment.
"I don't want to go down." Zhang He seemed a little palpitated.
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, no one wanted to move, it was Jiang Xu who raised his leg first, and everyone followed.
It was ready earlier and placed on a rectangular table.Mary sat at the front.
Jiang Xu counted the number of breakfasts, and there were only eight.
No one dared to sit next to Mary, so Jiang Xu and Ji Huai had no choice but to take this "noble" position.
"I am very happy today, everyone must have a good breakfast." Mary smiled.
The middle-aged woman with a knife and fork accidentally touched the dinner plate and made a "clang" sound, which was particularly harsh in this extremely quiet environment.
Jiang Xu took a glance, it was the mother of the little boy last night.The little boy seemed to be normal, he didn't cry or make trouble, he was not mischievous and very well-behaved, he just looked at everything around him curiously, maybe in his eyes all this was just a game.
The little boy's mother stood up suddenly, everyone looked at her, only Mary bowed her head and ate quietly.Jiang Xu felt a little bit of a breakdown in her.The little boy's mother said in a panic: "Didn't you say that you can exchange things? I will change, I will change."
There was a ding-dong sound in the sky, and everyone raised their heads in unison.
[Player Xu He uses privileges, please choose the conditions you want to exchange. 】
Xu He is the little boy's mother. She was stunned for a while and quickly realized as if grasping a glimmer of hope, "I, I use my life, I use my life to exchange me and my son from this ghost place."
Several people looked at each other, looking at the mother in disbelief.
So this 'plug-in' is used like this, Jiang Xu thought.
[Player Xu He chooses "life" as an equivalent exchange condition, and the system authentication is successful! 】
The air froze, and in just a short moment, Xu He's face changed dramatically. She covered her face with her hands and struggled in pain.Ji Huai gasped, but Jiang Xu just frowned.
After a while, Xu He stopped struggling and slowly let go of her hand. Her appearance was not terrible, but she became old and had more wrinkles at the corners of her eyes. She didn't look like the little boy's mother.
Xu He raised his eyes and looked around, feeling a little apprehensive: "Why...why are we still here?"
[The transaction made by player Xu He is not equivalent. 】
"Not equivalent? Li Ziyao said something, and Jiang Xu felt that he was a little angry, "Isn't it equivalent after she has become like this? "
No one responded to him, and everyone didn't know what to say.The system didn't respond either.
"I still want to change!" When everyone looked back, Xu He squatted on the ground, a little desperate.Things have come to this, it is better to change to the end.
She hugged the little boy, who resisted a little, probably because he was frightened by the change in his mother's face. "Let my son go alone."
[The system judges that the transaction is still not equivalent. 】
"Fuck." Jiang Xu heard Ji Huai curse in a low voice.
Li Ziyao on the side couldn't stand it anymore. He pointed to the sky and shouted: "Is there any humanity! What will it be fair to become?!"
"Add another 20 years to the life span." Xu He said desperately.
[Player Xu He's transaction conditions are successful, the system judges fair and equivalent, and the transaction is successful! 】
Just like what happened just now, Xu He's face changed again, different from just now, this time her hair turned white, her back was bent, and she was extremely desperate.
Everyone was looking at Xu He, but no one noticed when the little boy disappeared.
"Did that child...really leave?" Zhang He was terrified.
Li Ziyao said softly, "Maybe."
After this brief interlude, everyone was silent.Originally, there were people who wanted to do this, but no one dared to mention Xu He's current appearance.
Xu He's mentality was about to collapse, and she guessed that she was going to be stupid if she wasn't crazy.
"It's delicious!" Mary said to herself.
The people who already had no appetite couldn't eat anymore, and everyone stared blankly.
"Eat something, we will be able to go out." Li Ziyao comforted everyone, although it didn't help.
There were things like bread slices, milk, and some fruit on the side of the plate. At least it wasn't something hard to swallow. Jiang Xu picked it up and ate it. The little things from last night were not enough for him at all. , If I don’t eat anything now, I’m afraid I won’t be able to sustain it.
What's more, Ji Huai, who was sitting across from him, ate better than anyone else.
"Everyone, eat something, there should be nothing wrong with listening to Mary." Ji Huai shouted.
Some people started to pick up the bread and gnawed it slowly. They didn't eat much, but they ate some. Some people just sat and stared blankly, as if they felt that it was hopeless to leave because they had no appetite.
Others didn't notice, but Jiang Xu did, and he heard Mary smile.It was very soft, but he heard it anyway.
Very familiar, it was the laughter of the man who entered their room last night.
The same.
A gratified smile.
Simply incredible.
Jiang Xu looked up at Mary, her expression was normal, and she couldn't see anything wrong.
After breakfast, the people were divided into two groups. Xiao Min, Fatty, who was overly frightened, and Xu He stayed in the lobby to rest. The other four planned to go to the second floor to have a look.
During the day, the corridors are not lit, and only rely on the light coming in from the windows on one side.
Jiang Xu squatted on the ground, pointing to the large scratches left by the dragging on the ground, "The scratches were pulled a lot, obviously caused by too fast speed."
"She ran? But she doesn't look like she can drag a person, let alone run." Li Ziyao squatted beside him and adjusted his glasses.
Mary looks like a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, how can there be anyone who can hold her back?
"Who said she dragged one person?" Jiang Xu said again: "She dragged two people to run together."
Li Ziyao and Zhang He opened their mouths in surprise, but Zhang He didn't quite believe it: "Are you kidding? Can her body hold two people?"
Jiang Xu stood up, with a calm tone: "The first scream was from Xiao Min, and it was only a few seconds before the second scream. In just a few seconds, both of them died. .”
Zhang He felt his heart skip a beat.
What kind of method can kill two people in a short time.
Jiang Xu continued: "I saw it in Maoyan last night, and Mary only passed by once, and she never passed by the door again, and my door is the most inward, if she wants to come back and move the corpse again, You have to go through the door again."
Several people did not speak again.
"Then what should we do now?" Li Ziyao asked.
"In two ways," Jiang Xu pointed to the room of the old man and the pink-haired sister, then pointed to the end of the corridor, and said, "One group will go to see the scene, and the other group will go to the direction where the corpse disappeared."
Who dares to choose to go to the place where the corpse disappeared.
"Let's go to see the corpse with Jiang Xu." Ji Huai offered to say.
Li Ziyao and Zhang He didn't shirk anymore, so they agreed.
"Did I say I'm going to see the corpse?" Jiang Xu gave him a contemptuous look, and walked forward slowly.
Ji Huai smiled and revealed his dimples, and put his hands on Jiang Xu's shoulders naturally, "Do you think those two brats dare to go?"
Jiang Xu tilted his body, Ji Huai's hand slipped down, "Are you much older than them?"
"I don't know, I don't know how old I am, I should be 25." Ji Huai touched his chin and thought, "Those two look like college students."
Jiang Xu didn't want to discuss this issue with him.
"Last night, Mary entered our room." Jiang Xu said.
"What?" Ji Huai suddenly approached.
"Can you stop being so close to me?" Jiang Xu stepped back a few steps, disgusted.
"Poverty is particular." Ji Huai didn't approach him any more, and asked earnestly, "How do you know?"
"She stood by our bed last night and laughed."
"Damn." Ji Huai shook his head, "What is this guy's hobby? Why is he standing beside our bed laughing."
"How do I know." Jiang Xu always felt that this person talked a lot, and it was nonsense, "I asked the people in other rooms, and they didn't pay attention to whether there was someone in their room, and they didn't hear anyone in the night. laugh."
"Then she came into our room specially to laugh. Why is this so scary?"
It's scary that you can still sleep so dead.
Jiang Xu walked very slowly, because it was too dark at the end, and there were no windows on the side of the building in front, so the light could not come in.
"What do you think about the death of the girl and the old man?" Ji Huai asked.
Jiang Xu didn't answer, but asked instead: "What about you? What do you think?"
"Of course I have an idea. Do you remember that girl was looking in the mirror there yesterday, and Mary said something?"
Jiang Xu thought about it for a while, and roughly repeated: "She said that she hates looking in the mirror the most, and she also hates others looking in the mirror."
"Yes, and there are mirrors next to their beds after their deaths. I guess their deaths have a lot to do with the mirrors."
I have to say that apart from being handsome, Ji Huai gives the impression that he is useless and foolish, but in fact he is not like that. He is very smart and a good partner.
The two stopped talking after that, Ji Huai walked close to Jiang Xu, his sleeves rubbing against his sleeves, Jiang Xu could feel that he was really scared.
It's really strange that this person is afraid. He is not afraid of looking at corpses, but he is afraid of the dark and ghosts.
After a few minutes, the two stopped.
The blood that spread from one end of the corridor disappeared.
