At four o'clock in the morning, the entrance of Tongfuyuan Community was empty, even the security guard was asleep.
A van stopped at the gate of the community. Several men were sitting in the van, all looking in the direction of the gate of Tongfuyuan community. A young man with a straight back seemed to be talking to something, but there was clearly no one beside him.
But these people could see it, some could only see a blurry shadow, while others could clearly see the figure standing next to the young man.
A pale face appeared behind the young man. It was just a human face without a body. It was not a mask either, because the face looked over here with an obvious smile.
The people in the car swallowed their saliva, looked at each other, and hesitated, "Are you going?"
They all looked at a middle-aged man in his forties in the car. The middle-aged man seemed to hesitate for a moment, perhaps remembering what happened in Bai Hengqing's house that night and was still frightened of that ghost face.
He held a lighter in his hand and lit a cigarette. He didn't say anything for a while, just watched the young man walk into the community.
"If we don't take action now, he will go in." Someone reminded, but no one got out of the car.
The ghost face obviously discovered them. It floated in the air and looked in their direction. Then it turned back and said a few words to the young man. Looking at the ghost face, everyone was scared.
"Did you bring enough things?" The middle-aged man shook off the ash from his cigarette. He looked very calm, and when he raised his head to exhale the cigarette, one could clearly see a long and narrow scar under his neck.
The people nearby hurriedly took out a few cloth bags, which contained clanking instruments and a pile of talisman paper: "That's enough!"
At this time, the young man at the gate of the community turned slightly, smiled, and glanced in the direction of the car.
Under the pale street lights in the community, you can see that half of the young man's body is covered in blood, as if he had just returned from hell, but his smile is bright and friendly.
The middle-aged man who was smoking narrowed his eyes slightly and immediately put out his cigarette: "Go back and tell the boss that this can't be done."
When the others in the car saw the young man half covered in blood, their voices trembled as they spoke: "Did he go out to kill someone and come back?"
The young man suddenly turned around and walked towards them.
"Are we still going?" the driver asked, "Should we run faster?"
Someone behind him cursed, "What a waste! We came here to take him back, but he came to our door and you're running away?"
"See what he's going to do." As soon as the middle-aged man spoke, everyone in the car fell silent.
The young man with half of his body covered in blood looked very handsome, and the bright red bloodstains added a bit of charm to him. Walking to the front of the van, he politely knocked on the passenger window.
The middle-aged man rolled down the car window and looked at the people outside calmly: "What's the matter?"
"You are dying. I just came to remind you that maybe you need help." The person outside the car said this with a smile and politely, as if he was not someone who came to announce death, but someone who was politely asking if you needed help carrying things.
The middle-aged man looked at him several times with a scrutinizing look, and could only see that he sincerely wanted to help. Finally, he became confused, but soon, his doubts disappeared, and he said coldly: "No need."
"Then you should pay attention to safety in your daily life." The person outside the car smiled politely and turned away.
The moment the handsome man walked into the gate of the community, the middle-aged man's tense muscles relaxed. He put the gun clenched in his right hand into his pocket and waved: "Go back."
Everyone in the car looked at each other in bewilderment: "What should we do when we get back?"
The man fastened his seat belt and said in an irritable tone: "We'll do what we have to do."
Now no one else dared to say anything, and the van quickly drove away from the entrance of Tongfuyuan community.
Chi Shen was already going upstairs.
A ghost face appeared from the side and asked curiously: "How do you know he is dying?"
"He has a deep curse on him." Chi Shen said.
The ghost face was full of confusion: "Why didn't I see that?"
Chi Shen: "Do you think he smells good?"
Ghost Face thought for a moment and answered, "Fragrance, the smell of food about to mature."
"That's a sign of impending death." Chi Shen said.
The ghost face was even more puzzled: "You also smelled that fragrance?"
Chi Shen smiled but didn't answer. The elevator arrived and he walked out slowly. The door opened automatically. Chi Shen also took out the midnight snack he bought at the convenience store, although it should be considered breakfast now, and shared it with everyone.
Before going to sleep, Ji Xingchen appeared at his bedside for the first time and reminded him, "Those people have bad intentions towards you."
Chi Shen said: "The Bai family may be here to persuade me to go back again. I thought they would use a violent method, but I didn't expect that they were just here to see me."
Ji Xingchen seemed to be silent for a while, organizing his words, and then continued: "This matter is very strange."
"It's really strange, but it's too troublesome to investigate. I don't want to think about what will happen if there are more than three people." Chi Shen suddenly stretched out a hand from under the quilt, and while Ji Xingchen lowered his head to think, he pulled him into the quilt. "Okay, sleep, it's almost dawn."
Ji Xingchen's whole body froze.
"Come in and try," Chi Shen's voice was very tired, and his voice became lower and lower. "Theoretically, my body won't get tired now."
The original warmth in the bed gradually became cold because of Ji Xingchen's presence, but Chi Shen seemed to not feel it at all and fell into a dream calmly. Before falling asleep, he vaguely said, "Remember to eat breakfast."
Seeing that Chi Shen was soundly asleep, the frozen Ji Xingchen dared to move slightly. He looked at Chi Shen's profile and was in a daze for a while.
Ji Xingchen No. 2, who was hanging upside down in the bedroom, suddenly emitted a wisp of black gas and floated towards Ji Xingchen.
"You should know me," Ji Xingchen's voice sounded softly in the bedroom, "What am I thinking about now?"
The black gas floating in the room suddenly dissipated and disappeared into thin air like smoke.
A line of bloody words crawled on the ceiling: "He believes in you. This will be your new life."
Ji Xingchen looked at the line of bloody words for a long time, then he said softly: "Good night, the other me."
The bloody words dissipated, flowed into the wall and disappeared.
Ji Xingchen stretched out his hands and hugged Chi Shen.
A ray of light came in from the window. Today was not a good day. Without sunshine, everything seemed gloomy.
The female ghost in red climbed up the door frame and opened the bedroom door as she did every day. She looked around with some confusion and found that one of the ghosts was missing. Although she was a little confused, she still felt that completing her daily task was more important!
She crawled towards the bed with a happy grin, pushed herself up with her arms and jumped onto the bed. Just as she was about to lift up the quilt, she found that there was no one under the quilt. She looked up in confusion and saw Chi Shen standing by the window, putting on his clothes, and calmly buttoned the last button.
The female ghost in red curiously walked around to take a look, and suddenly stopped moving.
Chi Shen looked at her expressionlessly: "You don't need to wake me up today, go out."
Her expression looked a little strange, but she didn't say anything, nor was she afraid. She just watched.
Chi Shen ignored her, got dressed and went to wash up. When he walked into the living room, he hesitated for a moment, walked into the kitchen, and opened the cabinet under the gas stove.
After saying a few words to the female ghost under the cupboard, the female ghost crawled out from under the cupboard with a dazed look on her face, cleaned up the pool of blood that had shed, and then crawled to the living room in a daze and stood there, looking at Bai Wan in bewilderment.
Chi Shen opened the refrigerator and took a look, then went out for a while and came back with eggs, toast and milk. He made a simple sandwich and ate it, then sat in the living room.
He seemed to be thinking about something, his brows were tightly furrowed. No ghost in the living room spoke. Even the usually talkative Ghost Face looked at him cautiously. The whole living room fell into a strange silence.
After a long time, he stretched out his hand, touched his nose bridge as if subconsciously, then picked up his mobile phone and made a call.
It took a while for the other end of the line to be answered. It was the landlord's voice: "What happened?"
The landlord's voice sounded very cautious, even a little fearful.
Chi Shen said calmly: "Do you know that there is a ghost in your house?"
The other party seemed to have not expected him to be so straightforward. After a long pause, he said, "Young man, don't say such things casually! Be careful not to provoke unclean things. Don't blame me for not reminding you then!"
"The person who died in this house before was also your tenant?" Chi Shen's tone was flat.
The landlord fell silent, and then explained awkwardly: "You, you know everything, isn't it? This is why the rent is cheap! Don't worry, you'll be fine. No one has died here before. This location is great..."
"How much do you want to pay for the person you said can solve the problem of the haunted house?" Chi Shen interrupted her.
This time there was silence for a long time, and the next time he spoke, his voice was a little hoarse: "How do you know that someone came to us... They wanted 500,000 yuan. When I bought this house, I emptied all our savings. Where did the 500,000 yuan come from? I bought it for my child. The child went to another place and didn't come back to live with me, so I thought of renting it out. I didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing..."
The landlord's nagging voice came from the other end of the phone. She started crying and said that she was still living in an old and small house and had to pay property management fees for it. They wanted to improve their living conditions and only thought of renting it out. At least someone was paying the property management fees for them. She also said that if Chi Shen didn't want to live there anymore, she could refund the rent.
The landlord's voice could no longer be heard after he cried. Chi Shen held the phone and seemed to want to hang up, but in the end he listened to what the landlord said and said that he had no plans to cancel the lease before hanging up.
After finishing the call, he looked up and found that all the ghosts were looking at him. Even the ghost hiding in the toilet came out and looked at him, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
The female ghost in red wanted to rush over, but was grabbed back by Bai Wan.
"I'm going out for a while." Chi Shen didn't pay attention to them. He stood up from the sofa, took his cell phone and keys and went out.
As soon as Chi Shen left, Gui Lian immediately rushed into Chi Shen's bedroom, looked at Ji Xingchen No. 2 emitting black air in the bedroom, and retreated in fear.
Bai Wan went in after him. A row of red candles were placed in front of her to block the black air. She knocked on the cabinet beside her and asked, "What happened last night?"
The closet ghost did not open the closet door, and a dull voice sounded from inside: "I dare not look."
Bai Wan:?
