Chapter 238: Midnight Haunted House 25
After being rescued, Xu Xinghe immediately tore off the tape on his mouth. He said to Su Qingyun, "If you had come any later, I would have lost my dignity."
Su Qingyun quickly explained, "I was on the third floor rescuing Xu Xinghe. I had no idea you were trapped by a ghost. Besides, I'm here now."
Ye Jian was still a little unhappy, "I've never been kissed by a ghost in my life. Today is really bad luck."
He was also concerned about the injury on Su Qingyun's tongue. "By the way, I used a bit too much force just now to get that female ghost out of you. Are you okay? Does it still hurt now?"
Su Qingyun quickly used the back of her hand to press against the wound on the tip of her tongue. She hadn't noticed it just now because she was so eager to save people. But now that Ye Jian asked her this, she felt the burning pain on the tip of her tongue.
Ye Jian had just bitten her to death.
However, it was also because he dared to bite like this that he was able to force the ghost that possessed Su Qingyun out.
Su Qingyun covered her mouth and asked Ye Jian, "Just now in the third room on the third floor, didn't you use a crowbar to turn the female ghost into water? Why did she come out again?"
"That's not Tu Zhigang, that's Tu Zhigang's mother."
Su Qingyun and Ye Jian were analyzing the situation one after another. Xu Xinghe came over to urge them to make progress. He said that although they didn't know the time now, this time it would take much longer than last night at the Zeng family's old house. So far, they still didn't know what form the vengeful spirit in this house took.
"Ghost? What you put in the red garbage bag just now was the ghost." Ye Jian replied.
"The androgynous Tu Zhigang?"
Ye Jian strongly agreed with Su Qingyun's adjective: neither male nor female.
Tu Zhigang is a person who is neither male nor female.
No, to be precise, Tu Zhigang is a man who wants to be a woman.
"He wanted to be a woman, so why did he marry a wife?" Su Qingyun asked with his head tilted. Isn't this a contradiction?
Moreover, Tu Zhigang's wife is a pimp who organizes prostitution.
Ye Jian did not answer Su Qingyun's question. He said that Xu Xinghe was right in reminding them that they couldn't stay in this haunted house any longer because they didn't know the time.
Now the spaces under the beds in all the rooms have been cleaned, and the ghosts inside have all been put into red garbage bags. They have to leave here.
The three men quickly left Courtyard No. 3 of Butcher Village. When they got into the van, the street lights at the entrance of the village had been turned off, but the barking of dogs in the distance had stopped, replaced by the crowing of chickens.
The three men put the toolbox and the garbage bag containing the cleanup materials into the car. When they were about to leave, Su Qingyun's employee received a message on his mobile phone.
【Why haven't you come back yet? 】
An unfamiliar number.
"Who sent the message?" Xu Xinghe had been paying attention to Su Qingyun. Seeing her frowning at her phone, he asked.
"It's an unfamiliar number. The message was sent to my employee's phone, so it must be someone in the company." Su Qingyun put the phone in her bag and decided to ignore it.
She told Ye Jian to drive faster, "The rooster has crowed, and it won't be long before dawn."
It will take more than an hour to get back.
On the way back, Su Qingyun asked Ye Jian again why he thought Tu Zhigang was a vengeful spirit.
"That's what he said. He said he didn't like his body and wanted to become a woman. But people in rural areas wouldn't accept someone with such strange ideas, and he didn't have the money for surgery, so he lived in pain."
"He turned into a dead ghost because of this?"
"Of course it's not because of this, he's because of his wife."
"Is it still about his wife?" Su Qingyun felt that a person with gender identity disorder should not get married.
But Tu Zhigang is married, so the one who should be suffering should be his wife.
"Tu Zhigang's wife is a village sage who makes a living by skipping rope. To put it bluntly, she's a swindler."
It was from Ye Jian's narration that Su Qingyun learned that the prostitute in Courtyard No. 3 of Butcher Village was not Tu Zhigang's wife, but Tu Zhigang himself.
He only receives people with special fetishes, and the reason for receiving them is very strange: to raise money for surgery.
"Tu Zhigang's mother didn't think these things were true. She thought the strangers who came here were just renting a house, until one day..."
Having said this, Ye Jian stopped talking.
Su Qingyun quickly asked, "Until one day, what happened?"
Xu Xinghe didn't ask, but guessed, "Tu Zhigang was killed by his mother, right?"
Ye Jian nodded. "The old lady is probably afraid that she won't be able to explain to her husband after she dies. In places like this, people's gossip is terrifying."
Su Qingyun stopped listening after hearing this. She was too tired and fell asleep with her head tilted.
When I returned to the company, it was already 4:50.
Yun Xuantian and the other two came back earlier than Su Qingyun and the others. Yun Xuantian came over to greet Su Qingyun and asked her why she didn't reply to the message.
"What information?"
It turned out that the message was sent by Yun Xuantian.
"Didn't you see it?" Yun Xuantian asked.
Su Qingyun replied, "It's not that I didn't see it. As the person who cleans up Group A in the company, my employee phones only receive messages from people in the same group. I treat all others as spam."
Yun Xuantian smiled and said, "Why do you always keep me at a distance? I just want to care about you."
"The people you should be concerned about right now are you and your…" Su Qingyun glanced at Yun Xuantian and the others' car. "Teammate, we're competitors now. It's neither reasonable nor logical for you to care about me."
"Okay, then I won't care about you anymore. Tomorrow we plan to go into the Five-Star Haunted House. I heard that the Five-Star Haunted House is very dangerous. Only one person named Su has been there before. His surname is Su, and yours is also Su. Could it be your father?"
Su Qingyun didn't say anything.
Yun Xuantian added, "I heard from Yang Bingyan that you were looking for your father. The information on the big screen shows that your father is indeed in this instance."
"But," he moved closer to Su Qingyun, "there are so many dungeons opening every day, and you don't know which specific dungeon your father is in. What's the difference between you looking for a needle in a haystack?"
Su Qingyun naturally knew this.
But what else could she do? She could only take her chances.
Yun Xuantian suggested, "How about we form an alliance? I'll help you collect clues, and you smile at me."
Su Qingyun took two steps back. What kind of alliance was this?
"A smile can earn your wholehearted help?"
"Of course, I said I like you, and my liking is not false." Yun Xuantian looked at Xu Xinghe and Ye Jian who came back from the recycling center.
He said, "I think the two men around you are the ones who are insincere towards you."
"They?" Su Qingyun smiled slightly, "Just like you, they all said they like me."
Su Qingyun spread her hands and said, "I have no choice. Compared to you, I trust their love for me a little bit. At least they didn't get a girlfriend, even if it was just to get close to me."
"So, you'd better go to bed." Su Qingyun patted Yun Xuantian's shoulder and went upstairs with Xu Xinghe and Ye Jian.
In the parking lot, Yun Xuantian kept smiling.
