"ah!"
"Oh my god, that's really scary."
During the break, Shi Ling passed by and was about to ask Fang Songzhao and others who were gathered together to move aside, but he was startled by their collective screams of fear.
"What are you guys looking at here?"
Fang Songzhao's eyes lit up when he saw Shi Ling. He immediately pushed aside the boys who had just surrounded him, rushed in front of Shi Ling, and handed her the phone. "Shi Ling, you're just in time. Come and take a look at this video."
Shi Ling looked over in confusion.
This video is obviously road surveillance.
A little boy wearing a tiger-head hat and a red jacket was jogging across the road to pick up a basketball that had fallen on the zebra crossing.
Suddenly, a car sped past, making a loud crash.
Shi Ling was also startled, but then became a little confused. "Isn't this just an ordinary traffic accident? Although the child is pitiful and the scene is tragic, it's nothing special, right? Is there any need to gather together to watch it?"
Fang Songzhao felt that Shi Ling's gaze towards him became increasingly strange, as if he was looking at a psychopath.
He hurriedly said, "Look down."
Shi Ling continued to read suspiciously.
The scene was in chaos. The child's mother collapsed and threw herself beside the child, crying bitterly and shouting heartbreakingly: "Xinxin, Xinxin!"
Some people around called the police, some called an ambulance, and some were taking photos and recording videos.
Fang Songzhao explained the source of the video to Shi Ling. "This is a traffic accident video that went viral online. The mother was busy playing with her phone. When she was crossing the road, the child returned to pick up a ball and died in the car accident."
Shi Ling frowned, "These parents are truly incompetent."
Fang Songzhao nodded in agreement, "Yes. If she had just kept the child company and stopped staring at her phone, this tragedy could have been avoided."
"We're here, we're here." The younger brother next to him reminded.
Fang Songzhao pressed pause, then zoomed in on the lower right corner of the video. Behind the crying mother, a light blue face appeared.
"Shi Ling, look, what is this?"
Although the students around had already seen this spooky video, they were still terrified when they saw the child's face appear in the dark again.
Qin Zhan didn't like to join in the fun. He was dragged here by Fang Songzhao to verify the video. "This is the original surveillance video. There are no traces of Photoshop or pranks."
Fang Songzhao: "When the news first came out, netizens were criticizing the mother, but then someone discovered the eerie nature of the video, and now the internet is full of rumors that Ping'an Road is haunted. In the past few days, the flow of people and cars there has decreased significantly, and the shops nearby are basically closed. Even the Sunshine Garden community has been affected. Rumors are online that more than a dozen households have moved out, and housing prices have dropped significantly."
Shi Ling glanced at Fang Songzhao in confusion, "How do you know so much?"
"Too much talk will only bring tears."
Fang Songzhao pointed to the most dazzling shop in the video and said, "This is my family's new snack shop."
He pointed to Qin Zhan next to him and said, "Sunshine Garden Community is his family's building complex, and that mother and son are also residents of this community."
Shi Ling was familiar with this place. "A haunted house."
"Yes, a popular residential complex has been turned into a haunted house, and his real estate company has suffered losses of hundreds of millions." Fang Songzhao lowered his voice and spoke in an exaggerated tone.
Shi Ling and the classmates around him all hissed.
Qin Zhan was somewhat helpless, "So, Sister Shi Ling, is this really haunted?"
