Chapter 14 Madness
There seemed to be a dark shadow passing by outside the balcony. The speed was so fast that Qi Yi couldn't see it clearly and he wasn't sure if it was his imagination.
He watched for a long time without any movement. Qi Yi turned back, picked up his chopsticks and ate his dinner expressionlessly.
He didn't eat quickly, focusing on his hearing, but he didn't hear anything except the sound of eating.
After eating until he was about 80% full, it was already completely dark. Qi Yi wiped his mouth and prepared to clear the table.
When he was putting the lid on the bowl, a dull and slight knock on the window reached his ears again. He was very sure that this was not an illusion. He immediately jumped up from the dining chair, grabbed the kitchen knife on the table, and looked around warily.
"I'm being watched!"
Knocking on the window twice was mixed with noise, he wanted to confuse it!
Qi Yi immediately ran to the bathroom. He had just listened carefully, and the sound came from this direction.
At the door of the toilet, Qi Yi looked at the open window, feeling cold all over his body, and his right hand holding the kitchen knife kept shaking - he remembered clearly that the toilet window was still closed just now, but he was not sure whether it was locked or not.
It's okay if it's not locked, but if it is locked...
Qi Yi didn't dare to think about it. He swallowed hard and kept cheering himself up. He raised the kitchen knife to his chest and walked into the bathroom.
The toilet was not big, there was no cover, and there was no room to hide people, but he still did not dare to be careless. He moved forward little by little. After taking a few steps, he suddenly turned around, opened the bathroom door with his left hand, and slashed down with the kitchen knife in his right hand.
.
He didn't hit anything. The gap between the door and the wall was too narrow to fit anyone in.
He immediately turned around to face the window and moved forward slowly, while holding his breath and listening for any movement around him.
Finally reaching the window, he stopped and heard a voice in his head.
Is there a possibility? The person may still be hiding outside, hanging on the outer wall outside the window.
He remembered what Lao Chi had done just now, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, turned on the camera, switched to photography mode, pressed the shutter button, sent the phone out, twisted his wrist, and took two pictures of the surrounding area.
There is nothing below, everything is normal on the left side, and there is nothing on the right side either.
Above! There seems to be a vague shadow hanging on the wall and flashing past the wall.
"Fuck, what is this?!" Qi Yi's heart was pounding, almost jumping out of his chest. He watched the video carefully twice, and his eyes grew wider and wider.
There is indeed a shadow, half the size of a human, but its shape is unclear and its boundaries are blurry. I don’t know what it is.
Was he really being targeted by something weird?
Qi Yi's palms were numb.
He switched to photo mode, stretched out his phone again and took seven or eight more photos in the direction of the black shadow. Then he quickly pulled the window back and locked it, and then quickly ran to several other rooms, closing the windows and
The balcony doors were all locked, and the curtains were closed by the way. Then I returned to the dining table and took out my phone to check the photos.
He didn't know why he closed the curtains, it was just an instinct, probably similar to an ostrich mentality.
Compared with the video, the brightness of the photo is much higher. Although it looks very blurry due to hand shaking, you can still tell that there is nothing outside.
The human eye may have an illusion, but the video does not. There must be something outside, but I don’t know where it went.
Qi Yi felt even more horrified.
Something was staring at him, but he didn't know where it was or what it was.
He didn't know how many times he raised his head and glanced around the room, feeling his neck was sore from twisting.
Is there really such a thing as a ghost?
Qi Yi couldn't help but think. But he has been a forensic doctor for so many years, why has he never encountered it before?
If there really is a ghost...
He squeezed the knife harder, his nails digging into his palm, and the hard knife handle hurt his knuckles.
but……
Despite being frightened, he actually felt a little bit excited.
If there really is a ghost, and if we study this thing thoroughly, does it mean that forensic technology will usher in an innovation, and the dead can really speak?
He suddenly felt excited and scared, his expression became fanatical, and his eyes showed a perverted and fierce light.
The corners of his mouth grinned, a scarlet tongue licked his red lips, and Qi Yi stood up.
I have to find a way to bring him in...
Possibly out of psychological self-protection to prevent him from being scared into a fool, Qi Yi entered work mode under extreme panic and gradually became abnormal.
This emotional phenomenon is called hysteria.
Carrying the kitchen knife, he wandered around the room again, rummaged through the cabinets for the fourth time, and rechecked the entire house, but still found nothing.
The last stop was the bedroom. After he finished checking, his eyes fell on the bed and thought to himself: "I am probably being monitored now. So, if I lie down on the bed and pretend to be asleep, can I lure the target out?"
In fact, he had lost most of his logical thinking. He took it for granted that it made sense, got into the bed with a knife, and covered his head.
In order to facilitate movement, he didn't take off his shoes, and his mobile phone was put in his pocket and zipped up to prevent it from slipping out.
Instead of being tormented by the unknown terror, it is better to face the fear and fight it to the death, and maybe you can gain something.
Two minutes later, he remembered something again. He opened the bed and went out to turn off the lights. He grabbed the police ID card on the dining table and held it in the palm of his left hand. He subconsciously believed that even if there was a ghost, the police supplies should be there.
If it can ward off evil spirits, this thing might be useful.
After returning to bed in the dark, Qi Yi covered his head and shivered all over. He didn't know whether it was nervousness or fear, or both, mixed with a little excitement.
Oops, I forgot to open the window...
But if it is really a ghost, it should be easy to go through walls and windows, right?
He was thinking wildly, and most of the time he was rehearsing in his head what to do if there was really something dirty. Should he blow the police ID in its face first, or give it a kitchen knife directly.
After thinking about it, the knock on the window sounded again. Blocked by the quilt, it sounded much softer than before, and was almost covered by his breathing.
His body was completely tense. No matter how hysterical he was, when he really had to face the unknown fear, he would inevitably feel timid and withdrawn in his heart.
Soon, there was some other noise outside, as if something had entered the house.
Qi Yi regretted a little and wanted to lift the quilt and turn on the light, but he didn't dare. There was no way out now, he would either kill the other party or be killed by the other party.
He held his breath and listened carefully to the movements around him. The sounds were getting closer and closer, Qi Yi became more and more nervous, and the sheets were soaked with his sweat.
Suddenly, he felt the mattress beside his feet sink slightly.
Something is on the bed!
The feeling of sinking was getting closer and closer, and soon it moved from his feet to his waist. Qi Yi could no longer hold it in, and suddenly opened the quilt and covered it in the direction of the sinking of the mattress. At the same time, with a strange roar, the whole person jumped up from the bed, holding the ID card in his left hand.
Chapter completed!
